Playstation Tablet 1,868 Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Can't seem to copy paste on a phone, it also also aligns with the rumour PS5 will have a camera on the actual console (wtf). So two cameras for a VR controller option could make shit BC with Move controllers? Makes sense how it will now have VR support for what seems a budget option, at least for the standard Dualshock 5.

Casual 794 Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Seems like something that will increase the price of the console while adding pretty much nothing of value. Guess we should expect another underpowered piece of hardware so they can hit their price point. Link to post Share on other sites

Who cares we have a hint at their standard VR solution. I expect split controllers, each with a camera, touchscreen option in the middle for streaming. Also the main grip the split controller attaches to, to have a Dreamcast VMU from the patent. Link to post Share on other sites
lynux3 2,461 Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 None of this means it'll be included. Could be a controller that comes with PS VR2. Link to post Share on other sites

jehurey 3,318 Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 The main issues are 1.) They have to keep the cost of the PSVR hardware low while trying to improve its capabilities. And 2.) It needs to be installed EASILY onto the PS5. So cables are a problem, that additional box for processing is a problem. So are they going to be basing their VR on that "camera detects light" technology? Then they need cameras. But can you have WIRELESS cameras, or are you going to need to have them connected to the console via USB? Can you have a wireless headset? That would be huge. Link to post Share on other sites

But can you have WIRELESS cameras, or are you going to need to have them connected to the console via USB? Can you have a wireless headset? That would be huge. We can be pretty confident that the headset will connect by a single Virtual Link USB-C connection, and depending on what they do, the pods can 100% be wireless. There's already wireless transmitters you can buy to make the Rift and Vive wireless already. I'm pretty sure I remember hearing about one for the Vive anyway. It's not impossible, and it doesn't add an unreasonable amount of lag, but we'll have to see what Sony does. Could go either way in 2 years time. Link to post Share on other sites
Playstation Tablet 1,868 Posted November 22, 2018 Author Share Posted November 22, 2018 This seems to suggest PSVR2 will go for a budget solution price wise. That's a good thing. Link to post Share on other sites

JonDnD 3,032 Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 Why increase price for something that doesn't sell. ITs like packing in Kinect. PS4 sold what , 80 million? PSVR sold under 4 million. Nobody cares about it, don't increase cost for something nobody wants. Link to post Share on other sites

madmaltese★ 2,814 Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 Patents are incredibly far from actual implementation. PS5 will be a regular next gen console. Any crazy crap will be seperate for PSVR 2.0 which probably won't launch till 2 years after PS5. Link to post Share on other sites
