I can imagine the O.R being a good bang for shooters and games in general with few different control inputs but simulators that need a lot of different controls where you might need to actually SEE the keyboard, the mouse, the steering wheel column and the controls there, Track IR ist still a better choice imo.<br /><br />Also, has anoyone thought about the ergonomical risks that might come with having a light source in front of your eyes x hours a day with no ambient light to balance it?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6312211309223803137.post-6105540252110376082013-05-15T16:22:27.808+02:002013-05-15T16:22:27.808+02:00Well, it has been a while since i played a trucksi...Well, it has been a while since i played a trucksim but ETS2 really is great.<br />Realism is great, ok.. the tires seem to wear out very quicly but apart from that it is great.<br />(or would that be a bug? with tire damage of 17 percent i had a warning on the display saying i had to visit a garage)<br />It is felt in driving, one must be more careful going through the bends, as the tires provide less grip.<br />Being able to start one's own company and expand it is really great, sadly it is not multiplayer because that would attract more people i think, like it is the case with farming simulator.<br />I can see great potential in oculus rift, really being able to look arround as if really being inside the truck is a whole new level of experience, but i wonder how many players will be able to experience this, because i think it will cost alot.<br />It is not really going from A to B, one can plan ahead, choose a route through europe by calculating the time to drive to destinations and how long a certain load is available to be transported to its destination.<br /><br />The downside for me is not being able to calculate and give routes to hired personel, that would give more room to manage.<br />Secondly, at times the ai seems buggy standing still on a highway or suddenly brake while pulling away after a green light, or they do not brake and drive against my truck or trailer.<br /><br />Another thing would be actually being able to get out of the truck and go to a office for a load or to hire people or to have one's own office in which one manage his own started company.<br />That would also give ETS a more interactive feeling, being able to check the truck before one starts to drive a route, oil, water, lekage, lights and tires.<br />Being able to actually drive the truck into a garage with a pit for repairs.<br /><br />But that's my hunger for realism and interactive feel ^^<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03476914797292917389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6312211309223803137.post-9978671405912403592013-05-15T07:00:19.330+02:002013-05-15T07:00:19.330+02:00Let summarize this:

I almost ordered a DEV kit , but then I realized I would never be happy with it's bulk and low resolution ..So now i'll wait for the first consumer version in a year or two ...<br /><br />I just wanted to add that the occlus rift and Euro truckers two are a natural fit for each other , and this game more than most ... many of you may not be aware , but the rift suffers from some serious lag issues in the form of latency response times ... which means no twitch FPS for this new device .... however a game like ETS2 is perfect because while there's movement in the game world , it's not very FAST movement ...<br /><br />people wearing the rift have reported a strange sense of disorientation as the in game actions seem so life like that their minds are getting confused from the visual stimulus ..<br /><br />ETS2 is a game that would perfectly encompass the rift and completely overcome that sense of disorientation because your in game avatar is sitting , just like your sitting in front of your computer .. <br /><br />One thing I foresee is the G27 becoming wildly popular , and this is yet ANOTHER advantage that ETS2 will have over other games ... I think many of you out there who are hard core gamers would be surprised to know that there are many folks who play games on the PC who actually still need to see their keyboards rather than just using it by touch typing .However MOST people of legal driving age do NOT need to see their driving instruments ,everyone knows how to turn a wheel , people can feel the brakes and gas by touch along with the turn arrows and on the G27 there's even a shifter that I think could be used without sight ...<br /><br />now let's go over what ETS2 would need to do in order to really knock this out of the park ..I've read reports that ETS2 is considered one of the most beautiful games to play in 3D , which is great ...but even with that , I think that as stunning as the graphics are in game , their gonna have to crank it up a few notches .. Now i'm not completely sure about the GPU usage , but off the top of my head , from what I remember , because the screen used by the rift is tiny tiny tiny , todays monster GPU's will be unnecessary ... which means that more can be done graphics wise because the resources required from all the numerous different systems out there will be diminished ...<br /><br />If ETS2 can really turn up the immersion factor via increased graphics and perfect compatibility with wheels such as the G27 , this could very well become the most popular game on the oculus rift ..<br /><br />So let's summarize why the Rift and ETS2 go so well together <br /><br />* high latency on the rift will push people towards games where movement is not extremely fast . <br /><br />*Because of the mind/body confusion , game play that mimic's the body of the players who are sitting should do well ..<br /><br />*ETS2 seems well suited for true First person play ,the game is fleshed out , and ETS should have enough time in the next two years to make any adaptions for the game that maybe required .<br /><br />*Perhperials such as the G27 lend themselves to touch gaming ( and because of latency issues , that really limits the wheel usage to slow moving games like ETS2 , at least until they overcome the problems ) <br /><br />*ETS2 will need to up the graphics in order to hit hard , as I stated in the prior bullet point ETS2 will have the advantage on the Rift due to the latency issues for at least the first and probably second consumer versions of the product . <br /><br />Well those are just my thoughts which I wanted to share with all of you ...... <br /><br /> Marvin B <br /><br /><br /><br />Marvin Bnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6312211309223803137.post-68293162708604309572013-05-13T23:56:51.184+02:002013-05-13T23:56:51.184+02:00Would that explain why the SCS Trucks & Traile...Would that explain why the SCS Trucks & Trailers ETS was so superior to 2.

Its not just a simple thing of adding a line of code and its done. When they add something new theres a big possibility that it will break something else in the game so they will have to search for the code that is broken and fix it which could take a few days to find then fix and then they will have to get the beta testers to test the new code for bugs.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09797351599572545685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6312211309223803137.post-27853332357697351102013-05-12T23:01:26.568+02:002013-05-12T23:01:26.568+02:00@AnonymousMay 12, 2013 at 3:12 PM

But I just don't see any way how the implementation of the Oculus Rift would cause more than minimal delay to the patch and DLC.<br /><br />And yes, I know that not everyone has the same pockets.
