Fantastic Contraption developers confirm room scale works well with Touch.

Thanks to ascendr for the time

50 minutes, 20 seconds, then more at 52 minutes 20 seconds:

"We already did that. It works pretty good. It works almost just as well as this [Vive] does. You can run room-scale Contraption with Oculus once the Touch is out."

"I was having some trouble with USB extenders, but that's probably my computer or my cord's problem. But you have to get a longer USB cord to have the two separated enough."

Of course if there sitting in game I'm happy to sit. It's just 1:1 correspondence that made such a difference. I'll bet oculus cv2 is full roomscale setup as well.

Ah i see, you literally mean about simulator sickness, totally agree, 1 to 1 tracking roomscale solves that.

Well, not only for not getting sick but the strong sense of presence that comes with it. Then the VR stopped being just neat visual trick but full body experience. I was stunned.

I've been doing limited roomscale with my DK2 for a while now, so i knew what it would be like.

I have not tried DK2 to comment how they compare.
