I couldn't believe the news at first.. a Devkit 2 will be released to the public.
Before I ordered my devkit I made sure to read up on everything including the official statement that there wouldn't be a DK2 and now this happens.. I feel screwed over as a small developer. Do I really have to invest in a second devkit to keep up with others?. 😐 I don't have money growing on my back.

I'm hoping for a big discount for people who already received a DK1 with the premise of a DK2 not being brought into existance.
Otherwise, I want a full refund or upgrade to DK2. Is this fair to ask? well it might not be, but lying to your customers isn't either.

There's no harm in consumers getting a dev kit other than some devs have to wait a week longer and some ridiculous posts in the forum. Lots of hobbyists and indie devs won't be able to pay so much for a dev kit but those were the guys believing in the Rift in the first place during the Kickstarter. No need for a discount, but also no need for ridiculous high prices.

To all:
I see now that my initial reaction to the news was way too strong and I apologize for throwing it out there without some more research into the subject, I think my sleep deprivation is getting to me.
Part of what fired me up is that I read somewhere that it would include positional tracking, which would be a big deal for me when I thought that there would be no DK2.
I understand the heavy responses and reading your viewpoints greatly changes my view on the issue, thank you.
I'd love to delete the topic but I can't :oops: , guess that's penance.
