Nintendo must be way ahead in tech, a wii cost like 50$ and you can get the same quality if not better

I'd imagine the controls for the Wii are far more accurate as well. I had the quest 2 for a bit and I hated it. Luckily there are tons of morons who will pay $50 less than retail for a used headset lmao

Whaaat my quest 2 is great i use it for pcvr and games on it

u/WiIdCherryPepsi Oct 12 '22

Same! Love it. Except VRChat. That one doesnt like it.

u/BOEJlDEN Oct 12 '22

Isn’t that like the most basic vr game? Why can’t the quest handle it?

u/cmebackkid Oct 12 '22

Vrchat is incredibly unoptimized

u/WiIdCherryPepsi Oct 12 '22

People mostly use 99k tri avs and even 300k tri avs with tons of hair physbones and interactables. Quest won't really show more than 20k tris on any one character and despises a single physbone.

Virtual Desktop is such good software to do it wirelessly as well. Air Link looks like hot garbage compared to Virtual Desktop.

u/chisdoesmemes Oct 13 '22

I love virtual desktop

u/thegodamn Oct 13 '22

I think its ok. The games on the quest itself are super expensive.

I mainly just use it for assetto corsa

Look man I hate facebook and the quest but even I have to stand up here. The tracking is fine.

Only when everything's in view. First time I used a Quest, I instantly noticed how it lost tracking when my arms were down at my sides. That's why the Quest Pro got rid of the light band, instead adding three cameras to each controller. No more dead zones whenever the headset can't clearly see the controllers. If it wasn't broken, they wouldn't have fixed it.

Yeah compared to the Wii it's at a minimum on par because it's basically the same deal. I thought that was the case but I wasn't sure if there were some sensors in the headband that would help with that.

Wii controls are more accurate than quest 2? We both know that's a lie bro

u/dilldwarf Oct 12 '22

Yeah, say what you want about the metaverse, it's shit, but the Quest 2 is good hardware.

I'm thinking the PSVR2, if priced right, could be the thing that makes VR a viable business platform. It's not gonna be the Quest.

u/Hit_Squid Oct 13 '22

It just sucks the new one won't be backwards compatible. I've got a bunch of PS4 VR games PSN gave away for free awhile back, but I have no way to play them :/

u/smallbigchungas Oct 13 '22

i played it, dual miniguns is epic

Yes

u/Tired4dounuts Oct 13 '22

Yeah I think a lot of people are just giving it hate cause they don't like Zuckerberg. I use it with virtual desktop playing steam VR it looks great. Watching movies on big screen is awesome. Like any technology it'll get better with time, think nintendo and then super nintendo and then nintendo 64.

u/dilldwarf Oct 13 '22

I actually like to think of VR is more in its Atari stage right now. We are waiting for the NES of VR to hit the shelves and enter millions of homes.

u/MasterGameBen Oct 13 '22

Honestly, don’t think that the psvr2 will be cheap, knowing Sony, it’s probably gonna be pricey and you won’t be able to connect it to a pc, so a good vr headset? Sure, but a viable platform? Probably not

u/PillowTalk420 Oct 12 '22

Yeah, I read that and immediately rolled my eyes so hard I saw my own brain.

u/BatBoss Oct 13 '22

Yeah lol, wat? Clearly OP has never actually used a Quest 2, or they have a wildly distorted memory of the Wii.

I specifically remember the reticule on the Wii menu shaking like Michael J. Fox was holding it.

u/EnlargedChonk Oct 13 '22

some people don't know about the pain in the ass that was recalibrating wii motion plus while playing that sword game in wii sports resort.

u/kobedoinwork Oct 12 '22

Found Zuck’s reddit account

u/Rosselman DANKEST TIMELINE Oct 13 '22

Not a lie tho. The tracking is pretty good.

u/Ishaan863 Oct 13 '22

Quest 2 is a good bit of hardware, and i say this as someone who has immense dislike for Zuck. There's a reason it sold like hot cakes man.

u/kulingames 🍃malubulul🍃 Oct 13 '22

regular wiimote? only has better pointer functionality.

wii motion plus wiimote? here i have to disagree

u/TheIslamicRealist Oct 12 '22

Do you ever pity yourself in the fact that you have lie to make what you say sound true, or appealing to people?

41

u/TheGreatJoshua Oct 12 '22

Dude VR tracking is nearly perfect. I love my Wii, but...

-58

u/DontbeHumorphobic Oct 12 '22

I had 3 quest 2s and none of them where even close to perfect tracking, the full PC setups maybe but definitely not the quest 2

33

u/TheGreatJoshua Oct 12 '22

Okay, I gotta ask. Why did you have 3 quest 2s?

44

u/Casiofx-83ES Oct 12 '22

Because he started out with a small lie to get engagement on his post, and now he's trying to disprove the people who are calling him out by escalating to a larger lie. Soon he will be saying that his brother was killed while wearing a Quest 2 because the pass through didn't work.

u/Fatdabs4allah Oct 12 '22

Lying little bitch

u/Jako301 🍄 Oct 12 '22

Now that's a straight up lie.

12

u/bartonhahn Oct 12 '22

Huh? I hate the zuck as much as the next guy but I have a first gen quest and have used quest 2's and they control great. It's not even fair to compare the two.

u/babyteddie yiffed by obama 😳 Oct 12 '22

The quest tracking is fine wdym you hated it

11

u/PurpedUpPat Oct 12 '22

Lmao either this is a huge lie or you are just dumb and broke your controllers or some shit.

8

u/Ruins_Of_Elliwar Oct 12 '22

Wot? Tracking is good?

4

u/Tired4dounuts Oct 13 '22

I have a quest 2 I have never had a problem with the tracking unless I was trying to play it in the dark.

7

u/JorgeMtzb [custom flair] Oct 13 '22

Bro, metaverse might be awful software but you have to admit the quest 2 is quality hardware. I hate facebook too man but be realistic.

u/bawbthebawb Oct 12 '22

It's a hot market 😂

u/DontbeHumorphobic Oct 12 '22

The person who bought mine could have spent the extra $50 to get one with the box, receipt, warranty and a headset that someone didn't play sticky belly in.

u/BrendonGoesToHell Oct 12 '22

What about your other two quest 2’s? What happened to them?

u/BrendonGoesToHell Oct 13 '22

You never answered the question! Come back! The world needs to know!

u/etheran123 look who got addicted to capitalism Oct 13 '22

lol Wii remotes can be fooled by a candle. The tracking works for some stuff but you are stupid if you think that

2

u/juniorkirk Oct 12 '22

The Quest 2 came out when it was still Oculus. The tracking is pretty good on the Quest 2 controllers….as long as the headset can see them. I’m really interested in these Quest Pro controllers since each one has their own inside-out tracking AND will work with the Quest 2. The $300 price tag for just the controllers is pretty steep, but when reviews start coming out and if they perform as good as I hope, I’ll be buying a pair.

Hahaha same

u/keanureevesimortal Oct 13 '22

What's the problem for a used quest 2 im interested in buying one used

u/SIPHAN_official Oct 13 '22

Why did you hate it? I've used the original Quest and that seemed to work fine. I actually thought it was a good step towards making functional VR more affordable.
