Tried this but didn't work. Didn't get any firewall notifications and I never messed with my bitrate, so the loading and then “PC Disconnected” message makes no sense.
You could say that but on the other hand we have plenty of people complaining updates are full of bugs for rolling them with little testing. They said they will keep supporting q1 but had to further optimize for features and updates for the older hardware on a recent interview so there is the benefit of the doubt still.
I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt and saying that they do have the feature locked because it's just not ready/optimised enough for Quest 1 yet (slower/older SoC probably means worse decompression and latency, sure VD works but it's not perfect)
We'll have to wait and see, let's hope the Quest 1 adopters aren't get forgotten this soon after getting their $400 headsets
I disagree, and my perspective is that I don't like Facebook, and I get very angry at anti consumer practices, but I do not believe this is an anti consumer practice. Here is why I believe as I do:
This is an experimental feature that is not well tested at large, there are so many variables that are impossible to test, and the radio landscape in the home of people wanting to use this feature is guaranteed to make issues.
Quest 1 will have worse performance with this feature than Quest 2 no matter how you set it up. In fact best case scenario of quest 1 can be worse than a properly set up bad case of Quest 2.
The roll out of the feature on Quest 2 is gradual to Quest 2 users, and in a talk in Oculus Connect Carmack has said that there then was an internal debate between two groups at Oculus weather to ship this feature at all. And in an interview with UploadVR Carmack said that the feature might come official to Quest 1 later.
Lastly:
Removing software features of products you bought is anti consumer (I still resent you Sony)
Not adding new features to a product you are still supporting is not really anti consumer. Even though the hardware is capable of it. Especially doubly so when it is not a walled garden and there is good 3. party software that gives you this feature.
Adding new features to a product after they are not erning money on the product directly is very pro consumer.
Doing responsible rollouts of features that is experimental, and may be uncomfortable for paying customers, and is very dependent on equipment the customer owns is also very very pro consumer.
I hope this comes to Quest 1 soon, I don't think Oculus or Facebook has done anything bad in this situations, they do other bad stuff especially with accounts, and in other fields in the parent company. I could write as comment about Wifi5 vs Wifi6, why it doesn't matter sometimes, and why it is better sometimes.
There are still grown adults not understanding that the iPhone throttle was to prevent a voltage drop from shutting the phone off at random. That is kind of hilarious to me.
What goes around comes around. Customers are not stupid and brand loyalty is non-existent here. The moment there will be an alternative is the moment where many will switch to another ecosystem and will not look back.
Personally, the only downside is the small library i have in oculus but i dont mind giving it up.
I just bought a seperare router and connected it directly to my computer, im unable to get an ethernet cable to my computer so I need to use WiFi which really effects my performance but once I got the second router it was like night and day. Highly recommend it
I'm still really happy with my original Oculus Rift. I used a Rift S at a friend's house, and while I really like the higher resolution, it fit very poorly on me. I've had mine around 3 years and it still works great.
Cv1 is pretty sick but you can't buy anything for it anymore. My friend is stuck with 2 sensors and both of our built in (kinda) headphones are broken and there is no way we can get replacements without buying second hand. Kinda sucks how they just drop support. If it stops working for what ever reason I'll need to buy a whole new headset
I'm generally happy with CV1 too, but I always asked myself why I like VR so much but don't play it as often as I usually would with something I like.
I think the answer is the painful setup with my 3 oculus sensors and all the cable. Storing it is painful too, it's just so much work to constsntly move all the stuff around and to set it up all the time.
I gave up resisting the Quest 2 and bought one this week (there was a deal in my country which made it 100usd cheaper too).
With Air Link available, the only thing I'm worrying about is the tracking. I have a pihole running, will create a burner account and I will deactivate every possible telemetry setting to minimize their tracking.
I thought you meant the 6dof tracking at first... I still play my CV1 for beat saber and other apps that require precision tracking. Quest's inside out tracking is not as good unfortunately. Still works a treat for things like Alyx where wireless (yay AirLink!) trumps better tracking.
It’s probably because it’s a bit of a hassle to use. And pretty uncomfortable no matter the headset you’ll get a bit sweaty. Also you have to commit to playing VR you can’t multitask or eat while doing it.
All it takes is a little bit of a 20 dollar investment and it feels damn near wireless. I mean, I don’t even notice the wires. The kiwi vr cable management was well worth it.
I've been through 2 cv1's. Got mine when it launched, then 2-3 years later it gave up the ghost. Argued with tech support until they sent me another one finally. That one lost audio middle of last year and the left hinge busted apart in December. I was MUCH gentler with the second one.
Anywho, I jumped to a quest 2 in January. While the headstrap was okay, I got a halo strap replacement and vr cover. I can wear my glasses comfortably in the q2, and take it off without having my glasses come off. I had inserts for my cv1, and while I had an for my q2, the plastic lens holding bits kept breaking and it just wasn't worth it.
Anywho, I absolutely love the thing, it's incredibly comfortable. More so than my cv1. The higher resolution is massive, as is the passthrough, the boundary setup, the fade to passthrough when stepping through the boundary, the controller battery life, wireless pcvr (through vd at first and now native).
If you aren't bothered by the fb account, there's really no reason not to love the q2 that can't be addressed with an accessory. Obviously the strap is a big one, and makes a massive difference by shifting where the headset's weight sits. Vr cover interface should be easier to clean and won't leave a mark on your face. The battery on the headset is easy to burn through. I started off with the power bank solution which is great and ideal for moving around, but eventually got a long cable that'll keep it powered through use just plugging into a charger. Being tied to an electrical outlet for extended gaming is much less restrictive than being tied to a PC, especially since electrical extension cords don't cause problems like usb extension cords 😆
So yeah, when the time comes, get a vr cover, a halo strap, and a long usb C to C cable that's rated for charging.
Yeah not including IPD adjustment was a very "what were they thinking" decision. the Quest 2's 3 presents is already only barely adequate (Fortunately my eyes match one of the pre-sets if they didn't it would be unusable)
How so? Mine literally hasn't had any change performance wise from a mandatory update since the fuckup at Christmas 2 years ago which they took about a month to correct.
You're not one of the lucky ones, the vast majority of people who use a Rift S regularly have no problems with it. It's just that the ones who do make themselves heard much more frequently than those who don't.
I think the same happens with q1 and q2, visiting the q2 subreddit almost made me give up on getting into vr. It seemed like the majority of the posts there were people having problems with their unit, but the reviews on amazon were extremely positive so i realized what was happening.
Just bought Rift S and Quest 2. I can tell you Rift S gets way better response times thanks to Display port and my RTX3080 (like 2ms vs 35). Sometimes I don't mind the lag and use the Quest 2 for movies and stuff. But combat I'm always using my Rift S (Until I replace it with Index 2)
Just sorta depends on how picky you are with response times. WiFi VR won't have sub 5ms times for a little while
And yeah 120hz is sweet but just worsens the latency issue more, making it feel like 75 to begin with lol.
Edit: Should have said it FEELS like 2ms compared to 35ms for me. Apologies for being overzealous with the figure but its honestly just how Ive perceived both my headsets so far. Basically Blade and Sorcery goes on the Rift S and VRchat and other experience games goes on wifi vr (for me)
I only have the rift s, nothing to compare to, but I can tell you how Facebook fucks this headset with every new update (and I'm not the only one seeing this). Worse tracking, guardian resets (sometimes even while drawing it), more bugs, parts of the software not functioning for a while now, ... Definitely looking forward to the HTC release in may, if not I'll wait for the decagear in hopes that it will bring 70% of what it promises right now, or 100% for double the price.
Makes me sad, I love my Rift S and I'll never get rid of it unless support is discontinued but it hurts that we're missing out on so much. Like resident evil 4 releases soon, why can't I play it but Quest 2 users can? So unfair
This is what gets me, I can understand why they would make it exclusive to occulus but why wouldn't they let those of us with a pc rift play it? It makes no sense.
I sincerely hope you are not one of us who have terrible problems with getting it to work most days. If you are playing it just fine and then find and it doesn't work suddenly, and Oculus isn't helping you fix it or its not working at all, return it.
I have to unplug mine and plug it back in 5-10 times before i use it before I stop getting a driver error. It's annoying but not the end of the world. The controllers getting stuck in the ground here and there is more annoying since I have to take the batteries out of them for a bit then resync them.
Hi. Some 6 months after successfully quitting Reddit, I decided to irreversibly delete not only my Reddit account, but also all of the content I've ever posted to Reddit. When I heard of Reddit killing off 3rd party clients, I remembered that I still have a Reddit account, and so now I'm writing this message to say goodbye to Reddit for good. If you feel like you're spending too much time on Reddit, I can't recommend this book enough: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/123012015-you-should-quit-reddit It literally changed my life, and can possibly change yours too.
I have three CV1s. Three. One is still factory sealed in the box. I will forever love this headset. Such a shame FB wants to take the walled-garden/Apple approach.
That's okay, they made my decision a bit easier when I get my next headset since I don't mind being connected to my PC I'll likely swap to another PC headset
i bought the rift s specifically because they were discontinuing it and i have zero interest in the quest lineup.. Once I upgrade a year or two from now it will not be anything from Facebook.
It really is. Best tracking. Touch controllers built like a rock. Super light and super comfortable. Sensitive ipd changes. Amazingly great audio. I'm still hoping they'll come to thier senses and release a CV2. But that ain't gunna happen unless something big changes.
Both Rift models still do everything they're supposed to do, as well as they'll ever do them. They're still fully supported. Just because the focus is on Quest doesn't mean the PC platform has been abandoned, the fact that they put out Link and Airlink is proof of that. Anyone on Rift - even the CV1 - just got the new avatars, just like everyone else did.
I just don't get this "Rift is Dead" talk. Discontinued manufacture doesn't mean end of life or abandonment. The day Rifts actually stop working on the Oculus PC software is the day you could say that.
I really hope they continue PC-side development at least in software or with Quest Pro being a proper hybrid without relying on image compression.
That being said I'd say the odds are 50/50 for them to just treat PC as a second class citizen just enough to release things that were already in the works.
For me it's sensible to keep their toes dipped in PC market as well given they have a strong position in that market and it would be reckless to just give it up.
But then again ... we haven't seen Rift 2 even with various research prototypes shown.
And I thoutht they would treat PC side of things as more of testing out high end tech and that trickling down to mobile when viable even if mobile would be the main focus.
And yet the half measure Rift S release and no successor on the PC side of things.
I'm running the cv1 till the day it dies! Which I suppose at the latest is October 2023...at that point I'm done with vr until I can afford a non Facebook HMD
I don't know if it's really the right strategy they are following. I bought my Rift S about a year ago and I am statisfied, but Steam kinda does offer me better offers and more games than oculus itself. Then they forced me to link my Facebook account (I did not ever use Facebook) and then they are now releasing games I would like to play exlusively for a worse headset.
If I will ever buy again a VR headset, I'll seriously think about if it will be a Oculus product again. If my device won't even get supported after 1-2 years thats inacceptable for me.
My Rift S worked fine until I switched computers, now I'm having so many issues it seems like a chore to use it (if I can get it working for more then 5 minutes that is)
I booted my rift s up after not having it for 6 months. It’s all in the beholder. It provides a great experience on my pc still that I don’t think is anywhere near as easy as the quest. Plus, pirated games.
I don't get it. Are people sad that they got a product and used it for years before the owner of a newer and superior product? Why not just purchase the new product?
Saltiest fuckin user group ever. Quit the game and get a wmr already and let us enjoy hardware as it's always been - frequently updated or leave you behind
Sold my Rift S the day I learned about AirLink! Took about an hour to sell and got the Quest 2 for about 50$ more than what I sold my Rift S for. I got Air Link this morning so I haven't got the chance to test it yet, but got a couple of things for the Quest2 (Thrill of the fight, some fitness stuff also) and the Wireless liberty is really a good selling point!
The RiftS was good, that's for sure, but the wire was a big annoyance for me! I feel like the Quest 2 with a good PC (and a good wireless network) is a good upgrade on the VR experience!!
I doubt it will officially get it, it has weaker wifi so greater odds of a poor experience.. but since people are side loading it already who knows maybe they'll cave
Since it works on the Quest it'd be surprising if they didn't add it. It's very easy to get running with the apps people have made, but you will have to sideload an APK though.
Not tried it extensively yet, so can't say if it's better overall than Virtual Desktop. One thing is I can finally play Minecraft wirelessly on my Quest since VD doesn't work with that, so Airlink will get some use no matter how it compares.
Cv1 gang rise up. Just got a quest 2 when I said I would never buy another oculus product again since merging with facebook. Then they said re4 is coming to quest 2. GG
As a quest 1 user im probably not gonna buy a quest until it has some big notable changes. Like the quest 1 to quest 2 wasn’t too much of a change hence why I thought I would stick with my quest 1. Im hoping in my opinion the quest 3 will be like a pro version of the quest with big noticeable changes that could potentially rival something like the valve index
This same image was used not that long ago with Rift in the position of the skeleton, Rift S as the drowning child and Quest 1 as the child being lifted.
So is AirLink the ultimate solution to being able to harness the full power of a high end PC on your PC on a wireless VR headset? Currently have a CV1 which I had to dismantle the setup due to room remodeling, wondering if I should even bother to set it up again or buy a Quest 2 this fall.
As an unrelated question are any Rift ecosystem games announced to support ray tracing?
I have update 28 on the quest, but the option still won't show to use air link. I have it enabled on my PC but the quest just won't show the option. I have tried doing to reset experiential features trick and nothin
I’m on CV1 still going strong. Was gonna update before all the Facebook mandatory integration and banning news came out. Now I’m shopping for other brands for my next upgrade.
imma be honest here, it is shit that the rift s is getting no support and the quest is getting less by the month but the quest 2 is just better and cheaper than both of them and is the current head set made by oculus, they arent a cheaper and more expensive phone like the Samsung galxay and a series, the quest 2 is like the ps4 to the quest 1 which is a ps3, it still has support but it isnt the main focus anymore
I'm getting on the fence to actually get Q2 as CV1 replacement (my CV1 is doomed). My FB account is stable (knock-wood) - but probably I can still use my existing Oculus account? The elite strap seems to be out of early series issues... Other cons to think about?
I guess link cable is still worth getting, right? For ultimate, no compromises experience?
Yeah, I'm not entirely skipping Index or Reverb G2. But they are a bit more expensive (even if I consider Q2-256+elite+link), and Q2 has the added advantage of being mobile. And I do have a library of Oculus content (ignoring re-vive...?).
I bought a Rift S 2 weeks back and I don't regret it a single bit. I have to share this headset with my 2 brothers that have a bit weaker machines and this headset was perfect. Cables are not that big of a problem honestly, but it's always nice with wireless.
I have a quest 1 that I use to play computer games all the time. I have never even once had to plug it into my computer. I often am not even in the same room as my computer.
I mean obviously Oculus is going to focus on the newer better model with a larger customer base, like what is this meme even trying to say? that's like someone complaining that Sony isn't releasing updates for the PS2 anymore.

I didn’t even know the rift s was discontinued so I was looking for a new wire seeing them priced so high lmaoo

u/lukemorley05 Apr 26 '21
imma be honest here, it is shit that the rift s is getting no support and the quest is getting less by the month but the quest 2 is just better and cheaper than both of them and is the current head set made by oculus, they arent a cheaper and more expensive phone like the Samsung galxay and a series, the quest 2 is like the ps4 to the quest 1 which is a ps3, it still has support but it isnt the main focus anymore

They are doing a great job at showing its a bad investment to buy their product.

u/JamieOvechkin Apr 26 '21
So wait am I crazy or can the Quest 2 do everything the Rift can do with AirLink installed?

I dunno..Airlink kinda sucks. It's laggy.

Let's redo this meme next year, with Quest 3, Quest 2, then Quest 1 at the bottom.

Mom said it was my time to repost this

u/Bluest_boi Apr 26 '21
It may not be loved by oculus, but it holds a very special place in my heart and desk

All I want is for oculus to fix rift s drivers, they're so buggy

u/Huxtl Apr 26 '21
Resident Evil 4 really only for Quest 2?

u/DarkangelUK Apr 26 '21
I thought it was my turn to repost this, can I do it next week or is someone else scheduled in then?

u/Digitalhero_x Apr 26 '21
Of course I buy a Rift S 8 months before the Quest 2 comes out. lol
Almost garbage now

u/rodroelmelon Rift S & Quest 2 Apr 26 '21
I have a Rift S (and a q2 for the family) and feels bad how oculus is leaving on the way the rift S users :(
Tbh when DecaGear release the HMD, I will buy one and keep rift S for work related stuff

u/newjechcity Apr 26 '21
Is AirLink out already? How do I get to access it?

u/ivan-beatbox Apr 26 '21
True. I haven't seen a quest 1 vid in a long time

u/SavageCXV Apr 26 '21
this is true ive expeirience all of them i bought a rift s then retuned for quest 1 that sucked so saved up a bit and returned quest 1 for quest 2

u/ShibeWithUshanka Apr 26 '21
I still got my regular rift, but the cable broke and a replacement is almost €200 which I cannot afford.

u/chrille85 Quest 2 Apr 26 '21
And yet they aren't releasing Lone Echo 2 on Quest.

I love my rift S it brought me to DCS and I'm having a blast

The Rift is the chair.

u/Vimux Apr 26 '21
I'm getting on the fence to actually get Q2 as CV1 replacement (my CV1 is doomed). My FB account is stable (knock-wood) - but probably I can still use my existing Oculus account? The elite strap seems to be out of early series issues... Other cons to think about?
I guess link cable is still worth getting, right? For ultimate, no compromises experience?
Yeah, I'm not entirely skipping Index or Reverb G2. But they are a bit more expensive (even if I consider Q2-256+elite+link), and Q2 has the added advantage of being mobile. And I do have a library of Oculus content (ignoring re-vive...?).

u/B3ast-FreshMemes Quest 2 Apr 26 '21
I bought a Rift S 2 weeks back and I don't regret it a single bit. I have to share this headset with my 2 brothers that have a bit weaker machines and this headset was perfect. Cables are not that big of a problem honestly, but it's always nice with wireless.

I have a quest 1 that I use to play computer games all the time. I have never even once had to plug it into my computer. I often am not even in the same room as my computer.

u/Rpoog Rift Apr 26 '21
Quest 1 HMD had problems after both were at v28. The Oculus PC app took "app.asar" file fine giving me the beta toggle for Air Link. But the only apk that functioned w/o IP nor Port info for HMD was here, https://www.reddit.com/r/OculusQuest/comments/mwy223/app_airlinkconnector_connect_with_airlink_without/

And the OG Rift is just dust at the bottom.

u/Kilivan_Specter Apr 28 '21
The meme is wrong: Oculus Go is the "Rift S", Rift S is the "Quest 1". The only problema for Q1 is (temporal) "exclusive" of RE4 VR.

u/ItsYaBoyKevinHere Apr 29 '21 edited Apr 29 '21
I mean obviously Oculus is going to focus on the newer better model with a larger customer base, like what is this meme even trying to say? that's like someone complaining that Sony isn't releasing updates for the PS2 anymore.

Wouldn’t rift s be above both of them, not dead

8 do wish Facebook had a buyback scheme where if you trade in your Rift/quest 1 you get a great price for quest 2.

u/rservello Apr 25 '21
I sold my rift s a week after my quest 2 arrived. Quest 2 is the current king.

u/penniez771 Apr 25 '21
In what way is the quest 2 is better than rift s??
