VR? No Buy! Get Me Mixed Reality!
- Thread starter Julian Strasser
- Start date
Pro's:
Would be great to be able to take a drink in VR
Definite immersion boost, especially with h-pattern cars (where the shifting animation begins after your hand is already back on the wheel, or where you drive one handed but there's always 2 hands on the wheel)
Con's:
Still won't be able to scratch that itch on my face
Wallets will suffer, it's kind of nice not needing to worry about what your wheel/dash/button boxes look like since VR hides all of that.

Decent AR should be able to overlay a dash and support virtual buttons, albeit without tactile feedback.

At the very least they could give us the option to import our wheels and replace the default one in-game. I just want my Fanatec Formula wheel on the screen instead of the stock whatever wheel that they use. The wheel manufacturers have cad models of the wheels it would take a game dev 5 minutes on the phone to get Fanatec to send them the models and implement the option to use your wheel model instead of default wheel.
Why?
Just get a replica wheel of your favorite race car.
I've done that for a few cars and it's awesome.
