For everyone saying Quest, how safe of a bet is it to support Star Wars Squadrons?
I was thinking about eventually getting a Vive rig, but never felt there was a killer app just quite yet. Squadrons got my attention.
- istorical 6y agoIf you get Quest you can just play any rift or vive game if you have the PC for it using Oculus Link cable. https://www.oculus.com/blog/play-rift-content-on-quest-with-oculus-link-available-now-in-beta/ https://www.oculus.com/blog/play-rift-content-on-quest-with-...
- snapetom 6y agoThanks. I think I'm a little gun shy right now because last I checked into this (2013ish?) My coworkers were very much Vive over Oculus. I don't want to box myself in on a losing platform, but I guess this is like any other tech. You're going to be leapfrogged at some point.
- Ajedi32 6y agoThere was a brief period back in 2016 just after release when the Rift didn't have tracked controllers and the Vive did. That lead to Vive being the fan favorite for quite a while afterwards, even once the Rift finally did get 6DoF controllers a few months later. A lot has happened since then; the landscape today is completely different.
- snapetom 6y agoAwesome. Thanks for the explanation.
- vlovich123 6y agoThe Oculus Link cable is optional. Any USB cable (including 2.0 cables) should work as long as the cable itself is good.
- meheleventyone 6y agoSquadrons is unlikely to be Quest native but the Oculus Link is great and I use my Quest tethered to my PC to play flight sims which I think is preferable to virtual controls as I can have a full stick, throttle and rudder setup.
