What are your thoughts on that Virtual Reality apparatus and the incorporation of the unit towards ESF? I thing it would absolutely be spectacular, I can't wait till it comes out so I can start utilizing its many functions :),

Esf will be too fast paced for oculus rift to be used without neckstrains.

And the less they add the sooner we will see a release. Personally I don't feel like throwing my neck out trying to keep up to dbz speed fights lol.

Not to mention Oculus is a shitty idea for third person games. VR only works well in first person.

So unless someone sends them over, we can't evaluate it.

This. xD

But Oculus Rift wouldn't be a good idea for ESF, even if it was in first person. Except if you free roam the map, it would be awful in fight.

the only way i would see occulus rift being used for ESF would b like 3D glasses, stationary non moving virtual reality, everything still controlled by the mouse and keyboard, but if u wanted to move ur head slightly it would still look to the side a little.

You could enable first-person in the GoldSRC engine, but I think ESF wouldn't be the right game for it. If you take into consideration the twitch movements and the eye strain you'd get from seeing constant flashes, you can see why it wouldn't be pretty.

Behind you.
I perform telekinesis daily so I have no interest in moving stuff with my head.

Even changing ESF to First Person doesn't help us enable it in the slightest

GoldSRC just doesn't have the ability to handle VR

Practically no engines can truly handle VR right now, since there are none made for it.
