I'm not sure the release date, but from what I heard the progress is almost complete.
So we can play FF14 with this?
One step into the .Hack world.

Nope.
The oculus rift (least I think that's the one) is only going to be compatible with games that support it afaik. -

There are a lot of VR headsets in development at the moment, HTC, Sony, Oculus. This game may have a first person mode, but battling was never intended from that perspective. If you tried it you would have a chance to have a seizure with all the flashing lights. (Honestly don't try it unless you want to strain yourself.) Also the limitations of FPS and field of view would make it difficult.
As for roleplaying and just simply sightseeing, I see no problem with it. It would be quite enjoyable. -

Unless they heavily dumb down the visuals, no. You need at the minimum a perfect 1080p/60fps, with a proper anti-aliasing solution to boot, otherwise it's going to cause nausea. This game doesn't deliver on either requirement when rendering only a single viewport.

I'm at work where youtube (and pretty much anything else) is blocked so I can't post it right now, but sometime last year someone with an Oculus Rift dev kit posted a proof of concept that tied This games camera movement to the motion sensors shown in both first person and third person. First person was a bit impractical as would be assumed, however, its application in 3rd person was actually pretty impressive. It probably would be better for just looking around fields and such but it worked much better than one would expect.
Again I can't provide a link right now but if you search something along the lines of FFXIV Oculus Rift, it should still be up.
Oh, I should note that this was in no way official, just a fan project. -

Possible in 2016....

03-04-2015, 10:02 PMBishop81Don't know about "perfect 1080p/60fps" ... but low latency is a must (for Sony's VR, 18ms the last I heard; which is pretty good) and the glasses need to be adjustable (or even better self-adjusting) for different head size and inter-pupillary distance. Frame-rate can also be "faked" via reprojection (the technique used in Killzone:Shadowfall MP; that almost no one noticed showing how effective it is).Quote:

if we still had the first person effects from beta i would say yes, we had head bobbing we could see our weapons, we could see our boys and animations, but it was removed by request in beta, so now i would say no to vr :c though i would love it if it would go back to the beta 1st person with the vr headset.

03-04-2015, 10:22 PMKayoZMeh, screw Oculus. Completely lost interest when Facebook bought it out. Sony all the way for me. I just hope its not just compatible with Sony consoles, even if its not 3D.Quote:

Wha? Why would someone request that be removed? It was optional wasnt it?Quote:

VR headsets will be like most other "newer" technologies, it will be cool at that moment but nothing will actually be done with it.
I foresee maybe 1 or 2 games and that is it tbh -

Don't understand why everybody is the opinion, VR Headset shall be only good for first person view.
I think it will be in third person view nice too. You still have some advantages:
- stereoscopic view
- "big" virtual screen
and when head trackinng would be supported, you could change the angle of your view. -
03-05-2015, 01:03 AMBishop81You are confusing new technologies with Nintendo's gimmicks. :3Quote:

03-05-2015, 01:54 AMSyrellarisThe release date is first half 2016 at the moment, no exact date yet. Doubt it will play FF14 from the start though, that depends purely on if Square wants to support it or not.Quote:
