That can only mean one thing. They are ramping up shipping so more vives get in the hands of eager punters

I think the same amount are shipping each day, just at different times

Audio Shield + Dragonforce = never need the gym again!
Such a simple concept but so much fun!

So glad I didn't get the rift. Pcars was my only reason for ordering the rift..then common sense kicked in and I went for the most immersive option. Now ive got everything...well OK I still haven't got the vive! Come on shipping notification...

The vive has highlighted how incredibly unfit I am; my arms are literally in tatters after a few songs in Audioshield. But I'm upping my game with an additional song on each session!

I hope you guys start receiving your goods soon, so the thread can be full of "happy experiences" and less about shipping issues!

Get some wrist weights or weighted gloves and do some 'Audioshield Extreme' as some Redditors are doing

Can anyone recommend storage for the Vive? There are some nice backpacks on eBay for the Vive.

Can someone please check the state of the (Oculus) service below. I'm playing with the Revive patches and I can't get LT to run but pCars works fine.

OVRLibraryService is this service running on your system after installing the Oculus software?

I can see lots of errors related to that service in the windows event viewer and it can't be started. It may not be required to run but I need to eliminate this from my list of symptoms.

Mine is "manual" and not running by default, Lucky's Tale still working fine though with Revive.

Oculus VR Runtime service is running automatically.

Three words: Hotdogs, Horseshoes & Handgrenades.

Just a shooting sandbox though isn't it? Not going to pay £15 when something like Skeet VR is free, albeit more limited.

Rilot · 20 Apr 2016 at 10:17

It is, but the guns are really detailed and it's a lot of fun. Well, I found it fun anyway. I guess if you're not interested in guns then it's probably not for you.

I like just looking at the 3 guns on Skeet VR admittedly, even looking down the open barrel

Cheers that saves me some hassle chasing that dead end. Only LT not working so I'm not going to spend much more effort as I did a complete Windows 10 reset already this morning. Could also be because I'm on a Fast Ring preview build.

I was following the dev on YT and if he was just to produce a gun simulator I think he would be on to a winner.

That's about as close to a real gun as I'm going to get in the UK but I still watch a few channels on YT. The sensible ones though just doing tear downs and comparisons I might add!
