Support NeoGAF

[artsi]

I've never made a 3D game, but I feel like I want to create something VR related. I need to learn some stuff

 

[T.O.P]

Asked again on the IT support, now they are saying that my order will ship in about 2-3 weeks

oh my god

[Dreams-Visions]

I'd assume so.

Looks like it's turning into a nightmare now, why the fuck don't they just put the launch date back to avoid this shit.

Secret glimpse into HTC support:

 

[Jams775]

What ive already bought:

-cloudlands minigolf
-windlands
-elite dangerous
-virtual desktop
-vanishing of ethan Carter
-apollo 11
-Crystal rifts
-hover junkers
-fantastic contraptions
-tilt brush

Games I will buy as they unlock
-space pirate trainer
-raw data
-budget cuts
-audioshield
-theBlu

Games I own getting vive support "soon"
-radial g
-project cars
-adrift

Not bad support out of the gate. The only game I cant play thusfar is unseen diplomacy, the space requirements are too much.

What about Vanishing Realms?

 

[Krejlooc]

What about Vanishing Realms?

doesn't look particularly interesting to me. I'm also not picking up Chronos on the rift for the same reason.

Why in the fuck make CC payment available if this is the result?

 

[loganclaws]

Does elite dangerous have motion controls? What's the best way to play it on the Vive? With a flight sim joystick?

No, and flight stick (HOTAS).

Not in the EU - I'm in Texas - but I'm at option 5 - Vive has shipped, but money not pending and still in bank.

 

[Hoo-doo]

Damn excited for the Giant Bomb stream. Here's hoping Vive is as good as it looks.

Secret glimpse into HTC support:

There's a magic 8 ball in Job Simulator that provides a cathartic experience.

 

[coughlanio]

Loving my Vive. Brookhaven Experiment shows a lot of promise, and Virtual Desktop still kind of blows my mind. No real regrets about jumping on the VR train this soon.

 

[Krejlooc]

9 am CST

It's infuriating. I paid with CC because I thought it would lead to a safer and quicker process.. I'm clusterfucked.

Now.

Just now there were like 20 people getting shipping confirmation from EU


Not a single one used CC ofc

 

[ruddiger7]

Should be getting mine in the next couple of days. Itll be in my city tonight according to tracking.

 

[Felix Lighter]

I was driving from PA to Baltimore when Vive opened! I was able to break through the ordering process of the Rift about 6 minutes in but that wasn't quick enough! The wait for VR has become so much more difficult now that the products have been released and my wait is no nebulous again.

[Sleeping Lesson]

Weirdly enough, my CC charge disappeared. Even my Available Credit on my CC went back up. My Vive has already shipped though, so I'm not too worried.

 

[IMACOMPUTA]

I have Tilt Brush and Fantastic Contraption and a bunch of demos you'll probably never see. Bam!!! I showed you!!

Don't forget you also have a self-imposed embargo!

 

[TheCrow]

YES, jeff gerstmann brought his own music for audioshield. This should be good.

Could it be they don't want chargebacks so they filter out CC's. /tinfoil

When they start would it appear right on their Youtube page?

It should but not 100% sure since I usually watch on the giantbomb site.

 

[simonski]

Yeah, we'll see, but if they already took my money like they said, then better also ship it.

Also, I know that April should not have been there and I don't mind pushing it to May, but there's probably a lot of people who got it purely by chance and will be disappointed.

On reddit some UK paypal folk are claiming shipping emails with delivery tomorrow. The moment of truth approaches (nothing here yet).

Nice. A bit dry though for a review of new tech.

 

[Soi-Fong]

Well, this fucking sucks. Chicago here. The authorization is gone, money back in my account, but I never got any shipping confirmation of the sort.

 

[Chris_C]

Really excited for you guys (as I was for the folks who got a Rift). I got a PSVR instead as I'd rather wait for a gen 2 PC headset. Can't wait for the Giant Bomb stream to start!

 

[TheCrow]

Have faith brother. It'll ship today and we'll have it Thursday if not tomorrow. Just like the UK orders being shipped overnight today.

 

[Zepp Twofist]

So what is the status here? Nobody in Europe has gotten their orders shipped if payed with a credit card?

Edit: added Europe.

Yep

 

[Bboy AJ]

Email response is taking forever. Did everyone just call? Where's my order I placed a minute after it went on sale?

Goin on two days for me, no email response back.

 

[Skytylz]

I got my confirmation 2 mins after preorders went up and haven't heard anything besides a pending payment on my card. I don't think I'm getting it today.

 

[Mikeside]

I got a callback from the eCommerce team who couldn't give me any information at all.


I think I'm just going to pretend I don't have a Vive ordered & I'll wait until it arrives at this point.


The waiting around game is bullshit

From reddit, looks like they are sending out first the one who paid by paypal

 

[KingSnake]

Which make sense, because they got our money since more than 1 month.

Anyhow, yesterday they sent emails between 3 and 5 PM CET, so there's still plenty of time for more shipping emails today.

Frankly, I have to wait until Pascal since my 770 won't cut it. But still. I want to try what I can.

 

[Evo X]

I was so excited for VR.

Pre ordered a Rift 6 minutes after it became available and Vive 5 minutes after orders went live, and apparently both are somewhere in limbo. Lost to the ether.

Ayy Lmao.

Guess I should just go fuck myself, huh?

Thanks Oculus and HTC! I'll just close my eyes and pretend I have both. Virtual virtual reality.
