Oculus Rift will be officially released on March 28th, and will then start a new era of VR.Sony just announced last week that their PlayStation VR will be released at $ 399 in October this year.The price of Oculus Rift, which is $ 599, is very competitive.And don't forget, HTC Vive will also be the PC platform of $ 799 in April, with somatosensory controllers and the "lighthouse" space action capture system.

All this means that VR technology has entered the era of consumer goods production sales.

For PC players, if you want to experience VR games, you may need to update your computer configuration. Most VR games have high requirements for graphics cards and CPUs. HoweverThere will be high cost -effective mainstream configuration PCs to run VR smoothly, and may even support VR even mainstream laptops.

So now we have to care about not hardware, but software applications.The most concerned question is, what will VR games look like?

First of all, the most basic answer is the same as the current game.In the final analysis, VR is just allowing players to swing their heads freely. The mainstream game "Witcher 3", "Call of Duty" and "Biochemical Strange Soldiers" on the market can be placed directly on the VR platform. VR changes are not the core of the game.The gameplay mechanism is only a way to experience the way of experience, providing more sense of generation.It is believed that after VR came out and after a little popularity, all front -line games will support VR on the basis of traditional platforms, and do not need to make extra designs for VR.Players with VR devices can get a more shocking invasive experience, but the content of the game may also be fully reserved to traditional platform gamers.

In fact, the only substantial change brought by the VR header equipment is to make the user's head movement data a input signal, so the control mechanism of most games may not be much different from what we see.For example, if you use a VR device to play an RPG, you inevitably need to control items and equipment similar to mouse pointers.Therefore, early VR games may still need the help of traditional input devices, such as the handle and joystick.And this control method itself limits the infiltration of the player, causing the segregation of the scene and the actual experience.If I see my hands holding a machine gun, but in fact my hands holding the handle, there is no doubt that my "infiltration" is incomplete.

However, individual types of games will have innate advantages in this regard.Many VR game development pioneers have realized this, which is why "EVE: Valkiri" is Oculus Rift's starting game and pre -order reward.The air dog fighting game is a perfect match for VR+joystick, because the pilot is sitting there when he is driving a plane and holding a rod.With VR, players can look around like a pilot to observe the situation of the battle. This game experience shows the feeling of driving fighters very truthfully, only the feeling of acceleration and gravity.This is why "Star Citizen" attaches great importance to VR. After all, they have raised so much money, and it is more appropriate to spend on VR development.The author even believes that the arrival of VR will usher in a glorious revival.

However, the future of VR is to surpass the type of flight simulation. The key point to realize this transcendence is to add more infiltrating input devices.The feeling of pressing the button and holding your hand to hold a sword is too different.The infiltration feeling brought by the new input device will not be less than the leap brought by the VR head.

Fortunately, the VR pioneers have considered this, and the input device supported by the VR header equipment has been embossed.The Oculus Touch controller will be officially released later this year.From the early demonstration, the effect is excellent. Users can pick up the items in the VR environment by hand through the handle button, and even the two users can pass the items in the VR.
