I run AirLink as well, same as you, on a dedicated 5 Ghz band. Works great! Couple games to mention: Walking Dead Saints and Sinners was quite fun with good mechanics. The latest build has "Aftershock" which is an add-on campain for when you're done with the main game. I actually enjoy a little more than the original game itself. Also, Demeo is worth it. I host private games with a neighbor and it's been a blast. Slower pace game, but not everything has to be where you're getting shot at eh? Zombieland HeadShot fever is cool is you want a quick game and want to shoot zombies. It's cheaper as well. I play that one PCVR as well (as opposed to natively on the Quest 2). Oh, the first 2 games I mentioned are cross-buy; pay once for them on the Oculus Store and get them on PCVR and natively on Quest 2. If you get Demeo on Steam it will work via SteamVR but you won't get cross-buy to install it on your Quest 2 if you want.

That looks really cool. How are the in app purchases looking?

That second one looks like a stomach churning experience

Glad to have found this thread. Got a Quest 2 last week and feel like I've already gotten my money's worth. Walkabout Mini Golf is definitely my favorite thus far but Pistol Whip is a close second. Tried messing around with hooking to the PC with AirLink but I don't think I've got the specs needed to run anything too beefy. Not an issue for now, the Oculus Store has tons of games I want to try.

Ive been really loving my Oculus quest 2 more and more, especially since I got a new Alienware pc, and can do that airlink its awesome.

Yes. Quest 2 and PCVR via AirLink is revolutionary gaming-wise, for sure. Background: I've been gaming since 1980.

Half-Life ALYX for those of you with airlink! I know I've said it before, but it's worth repeating. And with all the mods that are available (i haven't touch my O2 lately tbh), there are just so many things available to keep it fresh.

I really need to get back in.

Been on my wishlist. I didn't jump when it was 29 bucks a while back. I guess Steam has rules that games can't go on sale for at least 30 days after being on a special deal.

It is on sale pretty much every time Steam has one of their big sales. I waited a few months until the Xmas/winter sale last year, and it was definitely worth the wait. I played other stuff in the meantime, like Arizona Sunshine, After the Fall (which I haven't played since launch). I would guess their Summer sale would be the next time they have it on sale.

If you can get TWD S&S, that's also another really great (initially spooky) game worth playing. I played it on O2 native and it looked great. Jumped in on PCVR and there is a huge upgrade to visuals. It's crossbuy which is awesoeme.

Star Wars tales from the galaxy's edge is pretty cool
I recommend you guys check it, especially if a star wars fan.

For my Oculus quest 2 i bought separate custom made lenses that match my glasses prescription, its awesome.. so clear.

I recommend this head gear, very comfortable, better than elite strap : https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09KLX48HF

"After The Fall" got another big update 2 days ago. Really fun coop game.

Love Alyx mods. There are some really talented modder's out there. It's getting better all the time. I'm having a riot, to the point I'm playing this more then my pins.
I have a awesome gaming destop and a vive pro 2, Index controllers & rtx 3080 at full tilt..so far does everything without a hiccup. Damn this feels so real.

Heads up…. Star Wars pinball is half price in the Quest. And it’s a really cool way to play pinball. Two thumbs up.

Some other Star Wars items on sale as well. Vader immortal, and the other more recent one…. Vader was good. More of an interactive movie, but still really well done.

Yes, good heads up! I have not played my copy of the SW pinball on quest yet, but thought I should at least try to support them (during a prior sale). 1/2 Price is a cheap as that will likely get!

Grabbed the vader set. I am holding out for that Golf+ game to go on sale too.... I barely even play this thing as is though...

After the Fall has been a blast playing with folks I know. REALLY fun, even though sometimes buggy.

Great chance to play TWD VR if you haven't had a chance yet.

Yeah I thought TWD VR (Saints and Sinners) is def worth the money, even full price.

I paid full price for it. Got me completely hooked on to VR and really changed my perception as a full-on gaming experience vs just a robust tech demo like some other games.

I play after the fall a bit after launch, but haven't touch it for like 4 months lol. Is it still largely groups of 4 killing snowbreed or whatever they're called?

Recently joined the VR club thanks to #epthegeek. Not sure how I was so late to this game but totally missed the advancements that have been made for very reasonable prices. My revelation story is very similar to his... Unimpressed with early experiences a LONG time ago and wrote it off... Had a friend show/talk about it... SOLD!

Jaz

Yes! 4 player co-op. Several patches have been released already, and the discord channel indicates they are working on this game daily! It's a top notch experience to play with humans that you know. Really fun.

What are you planning on getting? I have several hours on the Valve Index, but opted to get a Quest 2 instead. I use it to do PCVR from my PC:

Intel i7-7700K, 32GB RAM - nVidia GTX 1070 Amp Edition 8GB GDDR5. Nighthawk X6 R8000 WiFi (in AP mode).

and I use these:

Alxum USB 3.0 Extension Cable 25FT, Active USB Extension Cable Male to Female with Signal Booster, Long USB Repeater/Extender Cord 7.5 Meters for Printer, Webcam, Mouse, with 5V2A Power Adapter

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09GVXJX1T/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00

Syntech Link Cable 16 FT Compatible with Oculus/Meta Quest 2/1 and PC/Steam VR, High Speed PC Data Transfer, USB 3.0 to USB C Cable for VR Headset and Gaming PC

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B098399X91/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title

The above is one of the cheapest way to get into PCVR, since the Quest 2 is 1/3 of the price of an Index. I don't miss any of the Index features that are not on Quest 2.

Bought the Quest 2 the day after the conversation. It does a hell of a lot just in standalone mode. That is certainly the easiest way to use it. One key selling point for me is that it ALSO supports being driven by a PC. I have not setup the wireless PC link yet with the Virtual Desktop app. I've used it with a 15ft USB3->USB-C cable for some basic PC gaming (picked up a Humble VR Bundle that was available at the time). Waiting for Alyx to go on special which is does a few times a year. That might be the time I play with trying to do wireless. But this is a high bandwidth app so I'm figuring the wireless link will be a challenge.

My PC is an i7-10875H with 64G (was going to do a 32G but popped for the extra since doing it later would cost more). Graphics card is an RTX2080 Super Max Q. This is all in a Razer laptop.

Jaz

Sweet! Hey, you won't need Virtual Desktop. The Oculus software installed on the PC does it all.

For wireless?

*EDIT* Oh hey d**n... found it. Will try that this weekend. Thanks for the heads up on that.

Sure thing. I am not sure how familiar you are with networking. For Airlink to connect, you need your Wifi Router to assign your Quest 2 an IP address that's on the same subnet as your wired PC. I had to set my Wifi Router to "AP" mode for that to happen (access point mode). Out of the box, Wifi Routers assign IP addresses on a different subnet. If that's the case, you'll never see your PC when trying to connect to AirLink (inside your Quest 2).

That's a great price for After The Fall. It's pretty much the only thing I currently play (Oculus PCVR, but it will run natively on the Quest 2 unit itself).

Good Steam VR game alert: "Compound".

Controllers are available for 300 too!

Bunch of clueless morons. The price of the Quest 2 is what made it affordable to the masses and could grow the platform. This just hit the brakes. I know they say the Quest 2 isn't going anywhere, but they need to improve the Quest 2 without increasing the price (or minimal ie: 10% max increase). If they can't do that, then they need to go back to the drawing board and figure it out.

Disappointing...

This is a different class of product. The "Quest 3" is next year.

I'd be interested to see what this Pro thing is, but for that price I'm out for sure.

Quest Pro is for office/work usage. Quest 3 is for gaming and will be next year, in the 300-500 range. Just gotta wait a little longer for the "gaming" version. With that said, I haven't touched my Q2 in a good 6 months. I think Walking Dead 2 will bring me back in though.

I bought Half Life Alyx, downloaded the Half Life 2 VR mod, keep intending to set up my virtual pinball for VR use... Just never actually get to it.

Been going back and forth on which one I want to get, but have decided to buy psvr2 when it comes out next year. Already have the original psvr so I’m hoping they will provide free updates for the games I already own to be played on the new device.

Red Matter 2 is fantastic.

I played around a little to get VPx (or whatever it's called), setup to play pinball, but haven't gotten everything (anything LOL) working.
