corpse 13 Posted February 6, 2019 In what situations do you play in 1st or 3rd person? I tend to play in 1st when hunting, or gathering on a mount. It seems much better to be in 1st person using the grappling hook, but 3rd for the climbing pic. I tend to change it up very frequently. Do you generally stick with one, or change it up based on circumstance? Also - VR - would you play it that way? I would love to try it, but I am pretty sure I would get violently seasick! Can you imagine being up on a crows nest in a heavy sea in VR? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
arzosah 84 Posted February 6, 2019 The only times I ever go into third person, is when the game does it automatically(riding/sailding) or when I'm placing large structures like gates as it makes it easier to line them up. Otherwise I always play in first person. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Charles U Farley 46 Posted February 6, 2019 I once tried ARK VR. Since it would be the same in Atlas it is instant motion sickness. Ark is running with 50 FPS maxed out, Atlas with 30 FPS same hardware, You would need at least a RTX2080 for it to run a little big good looking, cause Atlas is horrible optimized.

arzosah 84 Posted February 6, 2019 I've never played a game with VR, I don't like the idea of wearing cumbersome headgear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Notorious 67 Posted February 6, 2019 I have many Vr hours, mostly Elite Dangerous but I assume this would be like ark, I got sick real fast. Last night I saw that Atlas was on my Oculus desktop and almost tried it. I may brave it on the weekend. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AntonyVW 62 Posted February 6, 2019 I have VR on the PS4. So at moment not able to try it. For my own experience I have enjoyed VR immensely with my top game being Startrek. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Optimization is a good point. I could see a low framerate being disastrous. I play the Forest in VR and really enjoy it. I could see parts of this being similar.

DannyUK 308 Posted February 7, 2019 I tried it the other week on Oculus but I just couldn't get it to work, it crashed. I have a RTX 2080 so should be able to play but would not work. I gave up with it but I'm interested also to know what its like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
