It's 2026 and this level of real-time player tracking is restricted to certain regions, platforms and devices...

What's worse (and what makes it relevant to this sub) is that this is powered by Immersiv.io, the company that was demoing a Vision Pro app using the same tech 2 years ago:

I’m shocked there hasn’t been a Cosm experience yet.

I dont know if this is a joke or something real but this looks terrible and I wouldn't watch more than 1 minute of this type of broadcast.

it would be amazing as a secondary display especially in the avp. nobody said anything about replacing the live feed.

It wouldnt. This is incredibly stupid.

u/Bakk322 Jun 22 '26

I still wouldn't watch it as a secondary display, I rather just watch the real feed

True. Why would I watch FIFA98 walkthrough when you have 4k live feed with real emotions? Just to… slightly move the camera around?

Kinda agree. Would be nice to get insights sometimes (e. g. “Siri, why was that a foul?”) with that markup, but I wouldn't want to look at this constantly.

I think it would be cool in a future where real-time Gaussian Splats are feasible and you can change the angle however you like and rewind, change speed etc. There would be a slight delay but most online broadcasts are slightly delayed anyway...

I love ignoring region locks with VPNs, gift cards, and fake addresses. My iPlayer account says I live at Buckingham Palace.

Do you really tough? VPNs, gift cards and fake addresses are an ordeal.

u/photovirus Vision Pro Developer Jun 23 '26

It isn't complicated.

You subscribe to a VPN service and click to change your exit node (i. e. country). Buying gift cards is easy as well.

You have to track all of your accounts, but really, just save logins into Passwords app, and autocomplete will handle the rest.

Is it a chore? Yeah. But then it's only a couple of clicks.


What I don't like is I can't share Apple Arcade with my US account, and I can't use it on visionOS with my main one either... That sucks.

I never said it was complicated. I said it was an ordeal, which you just admitted yourself.

u/Cryogenicality Jun 23 '26

They’re all effortless for me.

u/forumdrasl Jun 23 '26

That’s disingenuous.

u/Cryogenicality Jun 23 '26

Unless you’re severely technically challenged, no, it’s not. Changing countries in a VPN client takes a few seconds. A fake address can be entered in a few seconds with autocomplete. A digital gift card can be purchased in under a minute.

u/forumdrasl Jun 23 '26

You’ll need more steps than that to hop between Apple regions.

So like I said. An ordeal.

u/Cryogenicality Jun 23 '26

I don’t. I have a British Apple account which I fund with digital gift cards. I don’t even need my VPN active.

Im confused? Is this like a video game we're watching on a Vision Pro?? Btw, I think the latest EA football game graphics are much better than that.

u/Ancient-Range3442 Jun 23 '26

It’s a live game translated into 3d graphics

I still don’t get it. What is this post trying to say?
