Q&A
-
I usually do stationary VR with a HOTAS or steering wheel and pedals, do I need base stations for playing sim games with these? What do I need Base Stations for?
No, you don’t require base stations to play stationary, seated VR experiences such as simulators. The headset can be set into 9-axis tracking mode for non-room scale games that don’t need walking around or VR controllers, but they can improve tracking.
Games which require room scale and moving your arms, such as Beat Saber, require the use of base stations and controllers. -
I see 200 degrees diagonal field of view claimed, but what is the horizontal FOV?
Horizontal field of view goes up to 170 degrees, while vertical is about 115, but it can change slightly depending on your IPD.

Is this a standalone headset, like the Quest 2, or does it require being connected to a PC? Can I use a non-Windows OS?
