That's genuinely interesting to hear, because I had such a good experience -- I'm the guy that wrote the story, by the way. It definitely has bad graphics, but I thought the head and gun tracking was excellent. It's the best I've ever tried, and I've used DK2, Vive, Playstation VR and the newest Gear VR (with a Note 5).

I reckon they must have been having some software issues on the day, because that's extremely different to my experience. If I was running that I would have given you a refund.

Wow, so weird to hear you actually had a good experience. You mean to say that the rifle's orientation in game matched its orientation IRL (i.e. you could hold it like a real rifle and not hipfire it with the laser)? What about the frame rate drops? IIRC they were constant and impossible to ignore.

I don't mean to contest your experience, I believe you of course, I'm just shocked to hear someone actually enjoyed themselves at Zero Latency.
