I would have attached the battery to the top part. Just where the stock strap goes through the padding. The way you have it done, is the battery not resting against your neck?

But, that's just me, are you happy with the results?
 
I had it higher up originally, but the balance was not right, needed more weight further down

I find that I still need one more weight as the battery pack is not heavy enough, which I'd place just above the back where the straps go to the sides and over-the-counter top, then i think it be perfect , but as it stands it's good

Try this battery instead

That should keep the headset from sliding down onto your face :p:D
 
So new to this. So far a much better experience than the PSVR.. Loved Lone Echo and can't wait for 2.

Question though...I'm seeing different prices for games on the Oculus store. So I get sale items on my phone app which mirrors the headset store, yet the PC store app which i use to run the link the sale prices aren't showing. My account is linked yet had to repopulate wishlist and when i buy a game it doesn't show in both headset library and pc app one. I understand some games are for each one only but this isnt the case for the apps in question.

Cheers,

Some are available for both PCVR and the headset, but still need to be bought separately (not crossbuy). Could it be that?
 
Hi all,

Bit late to the VR game after historically only trying the original Oculus WAY back when.

I recently borrowed a PSVR off my Brother in law, and after getting a bit too into beat saber, and playing blood and trust I started to look at PC alternatives.

Few questions if anyone with a bit of time can help me with?

1. Does anyone have experience with the PSVR and the Q2? Is the image a lot sharper? as the PSVR is really quite "blurry" to my eye despite calibrating as best as I can.
2. BeatSaber, can this be run on PC and allow customer or larger song library unlike the restricted PSVR version?
3. Can you use BT headphones or similar for a good experience? The reviews i have quickly read dont mention the sound at all?
4. Do games come on sale on occulus store often? and can all the other VR stores or games be used with it (Steam etc.) to make use of a full library? I tend to only buy games when they are on "special/Sale".

I cant quite get over how reasonable the cost is now, vs how well everyone rates the q2? Am i missing anything or any drawbacks to the overall experience?

Thanks in advance.

I came from PSVR. Loved Blood & Trust and its currently my No1 VR game but Lone Echo gave it a good run for its money.

In terms of graphics the Q2 is lightyears ahead of PSVR. This from the Q2 is what i expected the PSVR to provide but sadly let me down. You can actually read text, it's a miracle!

Ah thanks for the info, I would love to be able to try one before commiting, but i guess thats not possible at the moment because of Covid in anyone retail space.

Anyone know of the best deal at the moment for anything 128GB or higher? I would mainly play on the PC (assume with a link cable - amazon sell a much cheaper one is this any different?)
 
I had a right faff on getting the link to the PC sorted. The OC games from PC are smooth now but the Steam VR stuff is hit and miss. I did have to roll back my GPU drivers to ones from last year which sorted 90% of my issues. I do think my 1070m gpu struggles a bit at times, certainly getting toasty so will probably look to upgrade at the end of the year to maybe a 3070 or 3080 mobile.

I just got the 128gb for £300. Thought it was as good as it gets. I bought a link cable for £15 from the forest and works fine. The main fuss was the PC. GPU drivers and GPU settings. Spend a good 5-10 hours getting what i wanted. It was unplayable at one point, especially on steam with the bar graph going red dropping 2/3 frames or whatever it means. Now it generally sits below the threshold of 13ms.
 
PS: I'm also a sales guy. Seems to be a sale a day then some bundled games come up. Just be aware of the cross platform. So the store on the PC covers the rift, the store on the headset//phone app is Quest. Not all cross over and it seems the sale is 90% on the Quest.

Check places like Fanatical. Some games on there for a quid whilst going on the store for £15. Also this is great. Bookmark it. Not sure if someone from here or hotdeals made this...
