wondered if you can have 2 pc's side by side with a vr setup on each running at the same time would cause any issues ? very tempting atm due to price drops
 
I know on the Vive you can set the light houses to "groups" so they only pick up head sets and controllers in their group, this means you can have multiple Vives set up in the same room without confliction.

Not sure if the rift works the same way?
 
I've read that it should only track the headset that's connected to the computer.
I think it's this. As long as the synchronization doesn't overlap and cause interference, it should work. I've seen a YouTube clip of 4 people playing Bridge Crew side by side using Rifts without any apparent issues.

For roomscale stuff...well, you're likely to bump into one another if there's a teleport mechanic, or tangle wires. Probably not a good idea to leave your chair.
 
We ran 4 VIVE's off 2 lighthouse towers when making the star trek video:


The headsets just use them as fixed points of reference for which direction they are facing, they don't communicate with them.
