Do you people even know what room scale means? It does not mean just standing up and maybe moving a half a step to your left and right.

Roomscale means the device can track your movements through a set area. The vive does this out of the box because it ships with the controllers and an additional lighthouse station. With a max of 15x15.
The Rift, can do the same thing once Touch is released with a max of 15x7.
Seeing as most people do not have such large spaces available and most people will be using even smaller spaces than that, I guess the Vive, as you said it, does not do Roomscale either.

Do you not see how there are no games on the Rift- not even any on the horizon that want you to walk around in a space with the Rift on; would you like to take a guess on the reason for that? Because apparently you and everyone else on this form knows better than all the actual developers for the Rift.

Please don't turn this into a Rift verses Vive as that's the last thing I intended with this thread. Is it that hard to get any unbiased opinions or helpful pointers anywhere at the moment ?

I sense this thread is subtly turning into a Vive vs Rift. How hard is it to be impartial and just state the differences.
I'm a neutral Oculus DK2 and Xbox controller owner waiting for SDK 1.0. 😄
Am I not pointing out the differences?

As a newish VR noob, I've had the dk2 awhile before selling it to upgrade my pc. How the heck am I supposed to make a uniformed decision on which HMD to buy ? I'm certainly not a fan boy (50) but I know my way around pc's.
I came to this forum to found out about the CV1 and what to expect. I see threads on this one is better than that one blah blah 😞 how the heck am I supposed to make a decision with all what goes on ? Any sensible devs/gamers with a sensible non guesswork opinion for noobs or do we make our own decisions? I do have a cv1 on order but really cannot make up my mind. Please please please don't make this a nasty thread. And no, I certainly am not a troller or inflamer.
