20 HUGE Mistakes Quest 2 BEGINNERS Make! (2024)

[@lordofbanana6869]

You tell us to not let it overheat, refuse to elaborate on how to prevent that from happening and just end the video. Just great.

[@gingergant4060]

You can feel the headset getting warm. Just pay attention and if it feels warm take a break and go outside 😮

[@owadqoiiqwdip]

Dont let it sit on your bed or any uneven surface. I did that and my brand new quest3 overheated on the first day

[@DaNkDUROO]

It’s OK I realize that he didn’t even elaborate on anything besides the shit that you have to pay for you’re not alone he’s stupid as fuck for making this

[@SkellyMcBones]

@@owadqoiiqwdip setting the headset on your bed or any uneven surface does nothing to how hot or cold the headset will be while using it..

[@owadqoiiqwdip]

[@Azillia]

Not playing pcvr isnt a mistake Quest was built to be a portable vr headset, its why it has its own internal hardware to run games on it So its not a mistake But you will miss out on pcvr stuff

[@Aes80s]

ur just too poor to have a good pc

[@Azillia]

@@Aes80s the u.s has a flawed economy Also i had a pc that could run vr but it got stolen, dont be ignorant and assume things Learn to be grateful for what you have

[@Azillia]

@@Aes80s also you encourage people to cheat in game by buying hacks, i wouldnt listen to someone like you That's just no life behavior

[@Millticker]

​@@Azillia had to come back three times. although I agree with the pcvr stuff but how in the world does cheating encourage people to cheat it's not good that someone's cheating, but it doesn't make anyone else cheat also chill with the spelling correction, this is the internet it's intentional

[@evilsohn]

Easy fix for Mistake 14): Get a tiny USB IR Light that attaches to the side of your Quest 2 - cheap, easy fix, let's you play in the dark, and even turns your quest 2 into a cheap night vision goggle.

[@willowcanttype]

No way that's a thing

[@evilsohn]

[@Smellafella5]

You know you say a mistake is not playing pcvr when the whole reason people get a quest 2 is because THEY DON’T HAVE A PC

1:20 i dont have a cable and i have a error trying to connect to my steam link vr, it is really sad what im losing and its frustrating, i have the same wifi on both pc and quest 2, but still cant connect, what should i do?? (Its not a error 200)

[@Skeppy-Weppy]

I know same as me it says connected but no video then It goes black

[@508thHeavyPanzerBattalion]

I don’t have a pc

[@SentinalDragonRanger]

Dude, i don't even bother trying to do the Air link between my laptop and headset. It never works right and gives me the black screen too. So I just stick to the cable and try to think of ways to keep the cable out of my playing area. I'm steadily fussing with SteamVR to get it to pick up my connected headset. Hope you were able to get the cable and figure out the problem.

[@LinLotl]

I remember the first time (probably in 2021) I cleaned my headset, i used a random sock for cleaning EVERYTHING. From the lenses inside, my sweat dirty controllers and the inside of the headset, but the thing is that I still do it to this day-

[@JohnMSawyer]

Good thing I bought a Quest 3 last night then. I can't make any of these mistakes. But seriously, I played Batman: Arkham's Shadow last night for the first time, while seated at my desk, which is filled with and surrounded by all kinds of things, and when I got to the first fistfight battle, I found myself punching stuff off of and around my desk. So I moved off of my desk's chair and sat on my bed nearby, where I had more space to punch, but I found myself reaching so far that I punched the hard plastic back of my chair instead. Hard. That was not pleasant. I finally learned after I'd punched it maybe the fourth time, that I didn't have to actually reach that far for punches to register.

[@willow-b6v]

I've wanted a vr headset for about 4 years, and I have asked for one every year for my birthday or Christmas but still haven't gotten one yet. I do understand we don't have much money now, but I'm about 95% sure I'm not getting one this year either... I came to my senses and realized, so I decided to start saving my money and now I have just enough money to buy my own headset. I'm waiting till after Christmas before I buy anything cuz I don't wanna have 2.

[@tamarak3943]

[@david_m_stevenson001]

Thanks dude, my wife and I are getting Quest 2 headsets next payday and some of these errors I would definitely have made. I tried out Apollo 13 by VRE when I met the company's CEO Dave Whelen years ago and was blown away (that company failed as he wanted to provide virtual education by letting users attend lectures in Harvard, Yale etc forgetting that these institutions cost money). He should have stuck to entertainment! I wonder what other applications VR has? Be good to interview you (I'm a journalist, finance mainly) as there's gotta be ways to monetise the platform which I thought would have been revealed during Covid

[@cortex7024]

i had my quest 2 for a few years now and have used it for almost everyday and loved every moment of it. The problem came when first few months in the straps broke off so the controllers started slipping out of my hands every now and then and i tried getting some controller strap things from amazon but they were cheap and didn't help at all and then about 4 or so months ago my quest broke on me. Main thing i do in vr is boxing as it helps me train for my MMA classes to improve my striking and accuracy and i guess i was sweating wayy too much and it managed to leak into the headset and broke one day mid sesh but my controllers were also on their last legs as i couldn't play anything but that game since it kept spinning me in circles and crouching me randomly because of how broken the controllers were, i got a new one ordered now and i also got the knuckle straps with it so no more broken controllers.

Idk how to play pcvr and sidquest pls teach me how to

[@cetifoxproductions]

I'm clearly an outlier. I have VR for only one reason: Elite Dangerous and Star Wars Squadrons. As it is, the only games I am interested are first-person shooters/flying sim. No other games are of any interest to me. There's nothing that runs native on the Quest 2 that would drive me to use it in stand alone. Also, other than other players in ED or Squadrons, I never had a desire to seek out other people to network with. Also, the controllers are of no use to me, either, since ED and Squadrons are seated games. I'm just glad the Quest 2 was only $200. It works very well with both games I play, even if it's a bit annoying having to deal with the extra layer of software that I didn't need to deal with when I relied on Windows Mixed Reality headsets. That being said, I love your advice on cleaning as well as keeping the headset out of sunlight. Also, I plan on looking into replacement straps, since I hate the over-the-head strap (I LOVED everything about the Acer WMR headset).

What is the handstrap trick?

[@PhaethonCrafts]

Yeah I have to buy a new headstrap. My headstrap from Rebuff Reality finally completely broke, which used the cheapest plastic ever. I only bought it because it was compatible with the VR Power 2, their battery pack. Luckily I think the KIWI should work with it too, if not I am the crafty kind of person and I will find a way to make it work. But I personally hate using handtracking for the menus. It doesn't seem to work well for me or accidentally activates when I'm watching Netflix or something and moves the screen so to speak, annoying me. It's fine for games that use it, but I just get annoyed with it in the menus.
