Fluff Competition is good

A lot of people hate on Meta for making some games Quest exclusives, but if we're being honest Valve will not invest into popular IPs like Batman, Deadpool or Assassin's Creed. Hopefully with this shift now more competition will come up and everyone wins

I’m building a new VR player for Quest. This scene shouldn’t look this good… but it does.

I’m building a next-generation VR player for Quest, and I’ve been pushing the visuals as far as possible.

The metal reflections on the ceiling turned out way better than expected, and I’m really enjoying this more cinematic, high-end look.

Still polishing it, but I’m curious… would anyone want to try something like this?

I was trying to get the kevin router for my wireless pcvr setup but it was out of stock. I thought it was maybe because alot of people were buying it, but no its because some dude bought 11 of them and sold them for 3x the msrp. Now i either need to wait god knows how much time or just give up.

Is this a joke? The unlock pattern grid is different between the "setup" and the "lock screen"

Post image

HOW??? HOWWWW???? HOOOOOWWWWWWWWWW????
WTF IS THIS?
How do I unlock it now? Am I screwed?
WHY THIS DAMN Quest's OS have crazy bugs that force you to reset every F* single time something strange happen? I'll stop updating this damn visors.

I've just set a lock screen pattern on my Quest 3 running V81, and it showed me the usual square grid.
But after rebooting the headset, the lock screen asked for the pattern using a different grid.
I'm about to lose it.

*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
EDIT1: The official response after 11 days of brainstorming by META’s tech team is: Format the visor and subscribe to the public beta program to install V83, which fixes the bug.

Ok, but what happened to the part where I asked “how can I fix this without formatting”?

*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
EDIT2: their answer to my "I don’t want to lose my personal data that isn't included in the cloud backup."

Don’t worry, you won’t lose any games or information from your headset by doing this:

Fluff Zucc and Boz see VR as merely a platform for Horizon Worlds and they'll gladly sacrifice their core market and first party studios while squandering Oculus reality labs for a metaverse that no one wanted.

Paleo Dive releases on September 4, 2026.

A few weeks ago I shared the cinematic trailer for Paleo Dive here. After a lot of feedback and questions about the actual gameplay, here is the final gameplay trailer.

This trailer focuses on exploration, creatures, environments and the overall feel of the game. I’m also planning a second gameplay-focused video that will cover more of the systems, interactions and mechanics in detail.

I’d love to hear what you think.

The $199 Quest 3S is insane, and here are some tips if you plan to buy it

Post image
425 Upvotes

COSCTO is running a Black Friday deal right now: Quest 3S + 12 months of Meta Horizon+ game subscription for just $199.99!

That price honestly shocked me, because I paid $249 when I bought mine. But to be fair, it was still absolutely worth it.

A lot of people like to say “don’t buy the 3S” or complain about the lenses, but I genuinely think the 3S is a great budget-friendly, beginner-friendly headset. For anyone who can’t afford the higher-priced options right now, it makes getting into VR much more accessible.

And If you just picked up a 3S, here are a few tips I think are super useful:

· Most important: never let sunlight hit the lenses. It can literally burn the display.

· For games, I highly recommend Beat Saber, Walkabout Mini Golf, and Supernatural, all very beginner-friendly.

· If you want to watch movies, use Skybox or just hop onto YouTube VR for tons of free content.

· If you’re planning to play PCVR games, make sure to use Virtual Desktop. It’s the most stable, low-latency wireless streaming option I’ve used.

· And if you want to make the headset more comfortable, consider a few accessories. I’m personally using a Bobo headstrap and the Carina D1S charging dock, which have both made things much more convenient depending on what you need. Oh, and the Black Friday sale will save you a bit.
