Battle of Normandy in VR | First Look | IL 2 Sturmovik

[@Boslandschap1]

Obviously depending on one's gaming preferences, but (combat) flying in VR is one of the best PC applications of VR in my opinion and IL2 Sturmovik for sure does an outstanding job of making the game playable and enjoyable in VR.

[@Horendus123]

Well said

[@Leon-bc8hm]

IL2 is the best with VR.

[@GizmoMaltese]

MSFS is pretty amazing too. I'm a bit overwhelmed by all the games I enjoy in VR. MSFS 2020, IL-2, Star Wars Squadrons, Elite Dangerous (less so recently) f122, ACC, and many other non-sim games. And the 4090 combined with a high res HMD is what I always dreamed VR would be in the future.

[@carlhil2]

Can't fly without VR..

[@Horendus123]

@@GizmoMaltese you VR with a 4090? Elaborate on how you run il2. What settings and headwset?

[@Dr_Jebus]

Very nice. And I must say I don't really miss not having clickable cockpits in IL-2. With these warbirds, there's not a whole lot you need to mess with once you're in the air, and then it's mostly things that are better suited of axes anyway (throttle, prop pitch etc) so having it all on HOTAS works fine for me. Really just the start up that you miss out on.

Try IL2 VR without Steam VR. Runs like butter in native WMR (Reverb G2) helped by openxr and openxr tools. What a game changer! See VR flightsim guy for details.

[@Avetorro]

Interesting, think I tried this but no matter what I do it launches in Steam. Is there a special method of running it so Steam doesn’t know?

[@phobos2077_]

Is it possible to do the same but for Quest 2? To force it directly into Oculus without Steam VR middleware.

[@rudlzavedno7279]

Just awesome! We've been waiting soooo long for this. Can't wait to try it myself soon hopefully with Pico 4 :)

[@laubox]

Fantastic, You will enjoy buddy! See you in the skies and thank for the comment, much appreciated!

[@GeekosdeTablero]

is there a way to play the game using the quest controllers???

[@ChaserSRH]

This video about planes was released on 9/11💀💀💀💀

[@robskey]

Great job !!! waiting for more : ))

[@SavageSenzu]

How do you record this full screen?

[@FlyingNutcase]

Nice vid; love your enthusiasm for the game and VR. Just curious about your PC and VR specs. I plan to hold off on VR for another year or so but it's not easy, haha.

[@kilroy987]

I'll likely pick up Normandy when they release a scripted campaign that requires it. I much prefer handcrafted missions instead of randomly generated missions.

[@vrforseniors9830]

When starting the game, why does the cursor only work for a few seconds every minute or two?

[@Minong_Manitou_Mishepeshu]

Very cool. 👍🔺

[@DiscusRussell]

How true to life are the flight dynamics eg as good as msfs 2020, Xplane 11. Do all the switches levers etc work

[@Avetorro]

Great video, I wandered away from IL2 6 months ago but Normandy got me back. It’s absolutely awesome. But can you share your VR settings and setup? I have a 3090ti and reverb G2 and wondered what the best settings are for this sim.

[@jake010993]

Do people still play this online? Was worried about buying a dead game

[@kobac5282]

Will this game work good with VR and ASUS AMD 5700 xt 8gb GPU?

[@gasdorficmuncher9943]

are they going to add the 1946 jets ??

[@rfrfrfrf43ttrf48]

Mam problemy z ustawieniem widoków z kabiny w oculucs

[@Dylantuning1995]

Anyone here who has a good setup for IL-2 in VR, i'm using the Quest 2, getting 72fps stable on Ultra settings but whatever I do and tweak, my resolution is not going up, I can't ID planes or vehicles from far and it really takes away my immersion..

[@madigorfkgoogle9349]

I see you have 70fps, what are your settings? I can barely run 45 with RTX3090

[@haltux]

IL2 is not constantly GPU bounded. Depending on your setup and the place you are flying you can be CPU bounded as well. Of course it heavily depend on the graphic details you are asking for as well.

[@kroysteamvr]

PC VR is dead though, so this video is obviously a deep fake. Good job. Looks really convincing.

[@jimmonaghan2575]

what a strange statement

[@Avetorro]

What other VR is there, aside from Quest 2 ....which will need plugging into a PC to run a game this size? Apple aren’t quite there yet. But the winner in vr will be the first to get rid of the scuba mask effect and give you the full natural field of view.

What would you play VR on if not a PC? Lolwat
