I'd add that you can get higher res and wider FOV in a headset but say with the Pimax you're talking a grand for just the headset and more for the peripherals.

Yeah, it's coming.  In two more years headsets like those will be $299. 


Let me put it this way.  In the past, I have argued that Hitech should put in code so that monitor only players should be able to used external views in order to compensate for the advantages that TrackIR and VR have over them.  The advantage differential has gotten too large. That would seem perfectly fair to me as a VR players.

$0.02.

problem is most people don't know about padlock.

trackir and vr helps to track stuff around you but it don't mean a thing if you can't fly or shoot.

there's things you can do that don't cost a dime that will give you an advantage. lower your own engine sounds to begin with, realize that most people are right handed so most of the time they turn in same direction, heard about padlock find out what it is and if it's still available, others figure out on your own.

In AH2 when I was researching and testing the historic gunsights that are the defaults for AH3 today. I reached a point I could hit fast moving maneuvering planes at will. My FPS was maxed at 60. When AH3 went live, all of my muscle memory shot solutions missed all the time. After 3 years of that I upgraded to a monitor that gives me 165fps 1ms latency in AH3, and I hit at will with the same practiced gun solutions I used in AH2. The very first day I used the monitor every shot I made hit as predicted in my sight picture for the first time in 3 years.
