A few newbie VR questions to which I could not find answers

[carve_gybe1]

Hi All

 

I'm struggling to find answers to the following questions. Your help would be appreciated. I'm using Quest 2 for VR, flying exclusively in Lagg-3 for now, and using "custom" realism mode.

 

1) Which "custom" realism options are relevant for VR? I'm thinking particularly about options that affect spotting and navigating.

 

2) Are there VR keymapping recommendation for joystick/hotas that help with navigation, communications and keeping track of mission objectives? Mapping of keys like I and O doesn't seem to work in VR. Is it supposed to? 

 

3) For single player missions that require coordinating with the squadron...how do you do that? Voice commands (with 3rd party software), keymapping, or still some other way?

 

4) Learning bombing precision: is it better to fly with unlimited ammo and make many many attempts at targets to get "a feel" for timing and angle of approach or is it better to get technical?

 

5) Any advice on how to ID planes in VR? Or is this just a weakness of VR that must be accepted?

 

6) What do I need to do well in VR before trying multiplayer? And when I do, what are my communications options? I don't have any voice comms set up at the moment, but I sense these are unavoidable.

 

7) Which multiplayer server do I start with to learn and not be shut down in 20 seconds by people flying 109s?

 

Thank you!
