VR support!
Hello dear community and developers.
I honestly in complete shock from absents of affords or moves from dev side due to so many request for VR.
You do realize this type of game EXACTLY perfect fit for VR gaming? VR experience in space? Space flights? Space battles? It would be revolutionary considering the fact there is NO space VR games for today. Well there is few craps like star conflict, but I am not even considering it as a game.
Please, CONSIDER IT!!!:steamthis:

Consider it for SE2 maybe, attempting to implement it in the old game at this stage is a non-starter... so, maybe post over on there - https://steamcommunity.com/app/1133870/discussions/

Apologies for heavy sarcasm. Do you realize there has been a request every about 6 months for VR? There is never enough support for it.
tbh gamers know what they dont want, but they dont know they want

from time to time it would be neat to play VR SE, but playing the whole game in vr would suck, and you would play it for a bit, and just get bored. at best every now and then you would pop into vr to see what being in your ship is like

You should check out the Sons of the Forest discussion board. People make a VR request daily. Daily! It's tedious.

No. The game is already computationally heavy. Throwing more load onto it just creates more problems. We'd rather have more and better content than VR.

I mean, vr support would be kinda cool. But I feel like the game is to far into its life

I mean, vr support would be kinda cool. But I feel like the game is a decent bit to far into its life span to even consider it, and I don't think it's a computer strength thing. I'm running a 8700f and a 6600 and still getting a steady 120, I could go higher but the game won't let me. The game is already tedeus at best, and it takes a lot of code to everything as is. Adding VR to the game would also mean a rework of pretty much everything in the game to support it.
A developer of this app has indicated that this post answers the original topic.

VR would be very iffy since camera's would be unusuable, and motion blur would be a extremity

plus, the game is already intensive on hardware, VR would only make it worse
I only play minecraft in vr, its kind of lame flat screen. I think the same applies to this game. It's more fun if you can kick back and point at things instead of using a mouse.
Personally, I'd like to see the opposite (of what issicus mentioned) implemented.
I don't have the gymnasium required for swinging around hand controllers and I imagine my arms would get tired long before I'd tire of a session.

I'd absolutely love to have *only* a VR headset display, but with bog-standard keyboard and mouse controls. I know there's a name for that, but can't remember what it's called.
Something like that doesn't seem like it should be that hard to implement since "mouse-look" is already in the game.
Yes, double the rendering means half the frame-rate, but I'm playing the game at 4K on a GTX 1660 and I find it just fine. For stereoscopic visuals that turn with my head, I'd gladly reduce the resolution a bit.
Please do TrackIR mod too. Would make me more happy than VR.
