You already are fighting 29 players in a match. xD

look for a TF2 DeGroot Keep with the max player cap on (32, or 16/16). If TF2 has blood pools and such, the whole castle would be soaked in blood till the stones turn red forever.

I would love to see them move the player camera to the commanders hatch. That would be amazing.

well in Greece i live the majority of young people have just part time jobs with salaries around 300-400 euros … and they have to survive a month with these money while the price of life is similar with Germany were the salaries are at least double .

so peripherals like Rift are expensive and someone must collect money for such machine for around 6 months . so almost nobody owns or is interested of getting one …

Even in my country (Germany) there are many people who have to live for ~350€ per month and they still own a big TV, a PC and the latest phone. Better have these things than spent it on much more important things (sarcasm).
So money will not be a problem even for those people…

Maybe most of the people you know work for that wage, theres plenty of people who make more. Fuck, even some guys I know who make like 400 euro a month still have brand new playstation 4s and galaxy 5s (or whatever is the hottest number nowadays). 300 euro is affordable, I thought it will be much more expensive too.

Tried it with my DK2. The fact that WoT’s engine is unable to run at smooth 75fps (more like 40-50) even with a top of the line gaming rig means the picture is super juddery. The head tracking in sniper mode is messy, because both the mouse and the head rotation change the orientation and it’s super confusing, and the IPD isn’t correct so there’s a crosseyed feel to it. The HUD is also way too big but I think that can be tweaked in the included preferences file.
Those are fixable if they develop it more, but the BigWorld FPS problem is the biggest obstacle to getting WoT run on the Rift properly, as it requires 75fps smoothly at all times even on the DK2 (and 90fps on the final consumer Rift which is a pipe dream in BigWorld).

The only way WoT will ever be usable on the Rift is if they switch out of BigWorld.
