2016-12-17
some junk on it okay that's funny okay mclovin is here with me we're in my old room where we have Heisenberg set up ready to go for steam VRA and be sent over the HTC vive for about a month or so worth of running tests particularly with their pcs but we're going to use it for the first time with Heisenberg because it's more than capable of VR and I booked both Jacob and I have never used a virtual reality set before so we're going to be noobs we don't even how to set this thing up we're just watching a YouTube video second ago trying to figure out how to how to get everything ready to go hashtag true so once you get in the box here obviously your headset you kind of need that I'm pretty sure you don't have like speakers included right is I like the dumbest question ever I don't know either I probably not only not I was this like some extra padding I think that's for that yeah it's for the narrow face it says on the outside oh okay alright so we have that these things kind of reminds me of the wii remotes and then these cubes really the most unprofessional review of anything ever and it's because HTC didn't send this so we're just kind of winging it um what do we do with these we put it's like you put them on the corners and it likes like what's against right yeah way up there yeah you have to put them on like the high end dude shout out to the padding are you kidding me Greg okay all right you want to go and just plug these into the there's some kind of wall outlet somewhere yeah shout out to those wall outlets that aren't here oh let me excuse me Greg cuz i unplug these huge lights that are taking all of the power walk down like I bet you do so is this all we have to do is just plug these in we have to wire these to the headset too I think it's a fun I do know you have to plug in the blocks though okay well obviously they're fine okay perfect put one there and then put one up here look at all those trophies Greg yeah greg was really good at soccer dude Amy's gonna be watching this video be like he's trashing our headset I promise I am handling with care all right all right there we go got it yeah yeah we're good and then i plug this bad boy into whoops wrong one there there all right oh it's like vibrating oh this looks like it's gonna go good should I move misty before she dies from like impending doom hi so we gotta plan a play area obviously we don't have much room in here it's telling us we need two million two meters by one-half meters or six feet by 6 feet by 5 feet what did we have three feet by three feet but what ten feet so there should be a little box and then the box yeah it's right here oh and then you plug all of that into the box and then the Box plugs into the computer I think I'm Misty's for sticking around for this okay so you're sure we don't put anything else in these vibrating cute I didn't say that I think we do I just don't know why did we flip into them I don't know because the directions are very clear it just tells me how to set it up once we have everything plugged in let's connect a big boy restarting seen VR it's a big I'm not getting any picture that I know oh you know what we have to like it might not be plugged into the correct port on my run room setter yeah what does this mean this is right where does it say could not start open the art tools team your to hear that one looks right yeah are you seeing uh oh yeah it says you're seeing that stuff okay how does it look shrimpy bro god I feel like I just dropped LSD that's like a key in front of me I don't know whether control controllers oh there's one controller there's one oh this is trippy really if you can sense where your thumb is on the pad in the game so look all right yeah it's crazy so what is so trippy Greg really oh my god that's cool it's like it's the thing from Portal this here wait turn a little to your right what no I mean go back to where he is turn a little off centered from them oh my get him in the shot there you go this one's like glitch in it okay there we go this is so trippy whoa you have to put the Hat earbuds in oh really yeah it's like 20 times better here I lost it I lost my practice in the ground I know it's so trippy this is I mean this is super accurate yeah Oh balloons Charlie this is the coolest thing so this is super cool all right okay definitely we got to try the game out I think the game's gonna be so trippy serious sam is like an intense game too okay so that's the game we're gonna be playing wii there there's actually a pretty decent selection steam I grew up playing serious sam as a kid like the original one and you know it's kind of an old school game that was really cool with different guns you could use and all the different creatures you were fighting and they have a VR version of that game which i think is perfect because it can get fairly intense so Miffy up whining can stop one you want I think she does I wouldn't blame her it's pretty awesome so yeah we're going to bed and start up okay it gets me just close that out right we wouldn't start up serious sam and hopefully don't have any problems I one thing I do want to mention we had to swap the LG monitor for the pics you monitor because this monitor has a deed displayport a displayport option and the HTC vive only uses a mini displayport to displayport from the box here or hdmi so the graphics parts only have a single hdmi output on them which means that if we want to use the hdmi output on the vibe box we have to use a monitor that does not use hdmi the LG only offers hdmi outputs so we have no choice but to do that here okay Jacob so it looks like um like you're good to go oh that what the lasers are forced using the guys update number six fix several issues with co-op mode okay what's those missions join game good game just play campaign submissions yeah should i do serious harder that would do normal serious is gonna wreck you dude this is so crazy they can sense where your fingers are on the tap on so you just showed up in like a desert is it pretty accurate yeah actually really yeah I can only see it really just do this is so crazy I feel like I could I need to like duck and roll just so you know you look totally awesome dry like in real life oh do this dude this is really great this is really tricky oh this games hard hey these guys running with the bombs man yeah it's like multitask that's crazy that was really hard got a 137 credits Jake of you so oh yeah I'm like standing on a galaxy you're right feel like I'm on the grid it's so sketchy oh dude if we had like a huge warehouse and we could have run around oh oh good luck dude o.o to who that were difficult okay so we're gonna see how accurate the just location sensors are with the controllers Jacob has his VR headset on and he's going to he's gonna reach out and try on his first try pick up both controllers I see that one movie you see both of them just that one up this benefit one is it right here it's pretty good okay so as long as they're within the field of view of these little cubes of my corners these are optical sensors i'm pretty sure so they're fairly accurate yeah you like that double action other great maybe like this are you crossing hoping my indiana jones oh okay dude this is so ridiculously cool it's ridiculous it's ridiculously cool it's so ridiculous feel like Laura Croft and tomb raider you
