Some of you might enjoy this, although it won't be news to most of you. I need to lay off the french fries I think. That's Hooves flying in VR behind me.

Yes, French fries! But they're delicious, isn't it? But actually the origin of these fried potato is Belgian, not French.

It's a misconception - and I'm French actually, so I know it exactly. Have a good time. Thanks for your work,

enthusiasm and passion you share with us.

You and me both. :(

 

But yeah, the show was a lot of fun, getting to showcase not only the game but also some really great hardware like the Crosswind rudder pedals and @GVL224's great throttle units. ?

Nice!

Great to see VR getting the exposure also!

No doubt the best combat flight sim in VR currently.

Love the moment when the other Spit collides with him, and the sudden head turn in disbelieve :o:

I assume to 2 guys in the background at the booth were USAF guys??

 

Would have been interesting to get their impressions.

 

Also forgot to real the Civi Pilots in with the non combat aspects of the Sim like VFR, a skill my brother tells me (as a Flight Instructor) which is being lost and hard to instill the importance of with new generation of Trainee Pilots.

A pity it was so short ... Maybe Jason should make some of his own videos to talk about the new developments. A kind of DD but in video :) nothing fancy or time consuming but it would be useful in crossroads such as now that we need to know the long term plans in the new modules just released and bought ...

@Jason_Williams

 

Hi,

I watched the interview with pleasure, especially this extensive part regarding VR. I'm glad that team is focused on that support and it is working really well. 

However, if this imersion is to be complete we need support for adittional hardware which require telemetry exposure.

Every year there is more and more advanced hardware for flight simulation ( and cars) like :

montion platform , G-seats, jetseat pads schakers,  power wind simulation, tactical bass shakers and so on.

There is a lot of great hardware for sim market which we IL 2 lover can't use with this great combat sim.

Your the only one competion (DCS)  have it and ppl can fully enjoy VR. We sadly not.

 

Please consider once again telemetry data exposure. And IMHO this is also business related . PPL with this kind of expensive hardware will buy every suppored game or more DLC's to supported sim.

Right now this money goes to competition.

Very Confident explanation of a great product. Have you thought of a video blog?

T Shirts and badges are great marketing tools as well.

Nice to see VR getting a lot of attention. The game in the Vive Pro is stunning. Don't know anything about that HTC Odyssey though.:P
