getting exciting...competition is great for us...will now a little more in 4days on the apple

there is seemingly a lot of SPEC info in on the Q3 based on some of parts they are going with...looks to come out in the fall/beginning of OCT

Definitely keeping my fingers crossed. The Q2 was absolutely enormous for VR content, directly and indirectly, so with any luck the trend will continue with the Q3.

Though it always bothers me that the 2 factors I personally care about the most (display resolution + FOV) are never mentioned until like 6 months after the initial announcement 😞

I hope the fov is like the pico 4 cuz it's pretty noticeably bigger then quest 2.

I notice the scenes that the scale can be on bigish side are not as bad to watch with bigger fov.

I'm definitely getting the q3 👍

Vrsumo2017 Why stop at the pico 4 FOV? Go bigger, it can be done. The Pimax FOV crushes the pico 4. I'm telling you if you have never tried on a Pimax, you head will explode with how big FOV is.
Hopefully the Q3 is BIG

Meta Quest Question: Don't you need to buy into Meta's user environment now? (still?) I don't know, I stopped using my Rift 2 S or whatever it was called at least three years ago. Maybe more.

As soon as I see the words "side load" in any post on here when referring to a headset, I tune out. It seems like I see that a lot in post about Quests.

So, maybe I haven't been paying attention. Is Meta a hassle to deal with or ? Will Quest 3 be worth giving your info to Facebook?

Vrsumo2017

mebejoe "side load"

Thats usually used for if you need to install apps or transfer files from another device using USB.

Quest 2 is simple, you just download deo vr or any vr players directly from the quest store, and theres a few vr apps that will let you stream videos from your computer to your headset. No sideloading really needed. And they changed how to make an account, use to be you needed a fb account but not no more, you just sign up with an email.

Only sideloading I ever done and l very rarely do is with sidequest if I wanna download a game or something which I hardly ever do.

Imo, all you really need is deo vr if you wanna stream from slr or other studios. To keep it simple. 🤷‍♂️

mebejoe you don’t have to sign up to Facebook anymore, just register for a meta account. Not sure if that is any better or not in terms of people’s privacy concerns but I’m happier without having a Facebook account.

Sideloading is purely for games/apps that are not available through the official meta store. I have only ever sideloaded Heresphere, nothing else.

Thanks! Then I will probably add the Quest 3 to my collection. The two I use most right now are the HP Reverb 2 and the Picc 4. Color pass through is amazeballs.

Wait. Do people still say amazeballs? Yesterday 21 year old office assistant laughed when I told here I "slayed" something, and she told me that is, "like three years ago.."

She told me now people say they "popped off" on something. WTF? I couldn't even begin to discuss with her where that must have come from.

What's next? If I gave a good presentation, I'm going to say that I busted a nut all over the audience. 😉

Nowadays I guess you can just set up a new Meta account with a name, birth date and e-mail address if you are fine with that. I think payment data are not needed unless your purchase something.

Signing up in the past with a Facebook account was a bit problematic in my view because this may have exposed the 'VR gamers' among FB friends.

Lol, idk cuz I never heard that before

But I'll use it now 🤣👍

I sold my Pico 4 cause the FOV was too big a compromise compared to my Pimax 8kx. However, I kinda want a new headset with good passthrough. So who knows. I really hope they increase the FOV by a good margin. If so, I might just get one.

Vrsumo2017

fenderwq I sold my Pico 4 cause the FOV was too big

Ah man, you could of bought the amvr pico face guard and put a thick cushion from vrcover on it and made the fov smaller.

But pico 4 fov is way noticeably bigger then quest 2. After a few days using the pico 4 I decided to put the quest 2 on and I literally lol at the small toilet paper rolls size lens 😅

"too big a compromise"
I don't think you understood what he meant. He meant the Pico 4 FOV was to small.

Vrsumo2017

mnmlikereal nothing yet, it's just developers developing them and trying to sell them to vr companies.

You can watch the video

fenderwq

Vrsumo2017 Yeah, I still found the fov small with no face cusshion... Guess I'm spoiled by my 8kx
