I can't help but wonder what this number would look like if it wasn't buried with 15 other options in the one question if I recollect . It's highly probable in how the surveys set up it will come lowest due to the user base. Have DTG ever thought about putting a flash question in once a month when you open the game up. On title entry just a quick "would (insert topic here) interest you?" One click and you're in the game. I can't help but think the survey has bias by burying a new feature in amongst loads of stuff people would understand easier. If you put ECML, unknown German route and little known Austrian route into a question most would go for ECML familiarity im sure. I personally would read a question and click yes/no/insert comment occasionally to access the game
Don’t think that would make much sense. People would just say yes to everything and you’ve learnt nothing. In the survey, you get a ranking of what people consider most important (all the stuff people would say yes to in your idea) and then you can factor that in during development. Just speaking from my own perspective, I do put VR support last in every survey. But that’s not because I don’t want TSW support VR, but because I consider literally all the other options to be much more important.
Thats kind of testament to my point to be fair. When you stack vr in with a list of other random features it will never be high. It will never make the game without someone making a demo of it for people to make an informed decision based on sight rather than "what if"
Even then, given the situation that the world is in at the moment, even if the demo is successful, I don't see many people dropping a pretty penny for a VR headset, especially just for TSW. Some of the lowest cost ones you would get is the old CV1, which runs about 100-200 USD. The Quest 2 is about 400-500 USD (Though not the best option for a PC only headset.) A full Steam Index kit runs about 1k USD on the Steam store. About the price of a decent Pc.
I remember paying £200 new for my quest. Since they changed the name to meta it's now £400 and I've no idea why. Agree though, those steam ones are ridiculous price and if I recollect from when I was researching a lesser spec. The quest with a decent wifi connection is pretty awesome playing wireless on things like half life and racing sims mind you
Like others here. I have a VR Headset but I didn’t put it anywhere near the top. Too many other things that are far more important. That includes performance. In my experience any stutters in VR make me feel sick and that, to my mind, needs to be sorted out first. When TSW starts running perfectly smoothly at 60-90 fps with no stutters, then I’ll start voting for it.
If there was a "flash" question - "are you interested in VR?" My answer would be yes. However I put it last or nearly last in the survey as there are many more areas I want DTG to develop/put right first before they look at VR. Plus personally at the moment I am not in a position to be spending money on hardware for the next six months or so.
