The Dawn of Mobile VR with John Carmack - GDC 2015

[@fifthgear93]

Finally, a new John Carmack keynote. I can listen to him talk all day. Such an intelligent person. I was looking forward to his 2014 QuakeCon keynote, but I was really disappointed when I found out that he wouldn't be giving any, since he's not a part of id software anymore.

[@huaweivideographer6756]

id sucks. fuck off.

[@shadfurman]

Ditto! John Carmack and Elon musk... I am like a puppy at the door for every word they say.

[@3DHistoryAdventures]

John Carmack is awesome - I appreciate his openness and clarity of vision when it comes to all the expansive applications of VR that will enhance total medium, including enriching the gaming aspects, as more areas are explored that may have one been concerned with as peripheral 'maybe some day" projects. I'm not a gamer simply because my life took me down different paths, however, every time I visit someone who is a gamer, my mind is blown beyond at how far the graphics, controls, and depths of realism has been reached thus far. Now, almost 30 years old and totally engrossed in the VR-Revolution, I am completely amazed with the gaming industry and am learning how to program and develop games and interactive environments thanks to Unreal Engine 4's incredible free release - I know I'm not alone, and thanks to the expansion of VR beyond the gaming sector, I'm sure MANY people who weren't previously into gaming and developing and creating-content - now will be, allowing perspectives and experiences to be created and shared from more and more new and unsuspected sources.

[@ctankep]

Thanks for filming this - And making it available so quickly.

[@BoopedON]

I love the ending. Sorry we are out of time for questions Carmack: "If anyone wants I'll be out in the hall and we can continue this further".

[@psyxerxes]

I can listen to this man 24 hours straight.

[@ShredST]

If Occulus is really focused on mobile, then they're taking a way harder job than Valve.

[@joseg1984]

Wow 60fps makes a huge difference.

[@ceeejay6107]

Such a legend of gaming industry. God bless u John Carmack

[@WisteriaBerlitz]

John Carmack is an incredible person.

[@HappyKatze]

Brilliant guy

[@Anolesoul]

Great that I was finally exposed to "John Carmack"! A very intelligent person,very knowledgeable of what he's been "into" since his creation of the 1st DOOM;and, SO much more as to his unbelievable knowledge ...of SO much more!

[@jcmc1111]

Why is youtube putting the stupidest top comments on top, there are other top comments with more likes than the stupid ones, and are on the bottom... I smell Google conspiracy.

[@kamma44]

'The Dawn of Mobile VR...'?! Lol. Fix battery life first before moving onto other things!

[@aitkeau]

So true so true

[@delandmeadows4744]

+kamma44 check this out slumz.boxden.com/f244/new-cell-phone-battery-technology-revolutionary-1877208/ lots of exciting research that uses existing tech which can be implemented immediately with no substantial increase in mnfting prices .

[@Luix]

he is impressive, and the 60fps is also impressive

[@JaredWoodruff]

I want to See Total Annihilation ported. it would be so amazing to see though the eyes of a commander and play the game that way, RTS has always been a keyboard and mouse field, but just imagine the immersion if you were in the battle with a good control scheme.

[@Wladislav]

I surprised at how short this talk is.

[@henryt8386]

captions required pls!

[@sidshekar]

miss his glottal stops :D

[@sniperkitty3000xx]

whats a glottal stop pls

[@sidshekar]

[@sniperkitty3000xx]

[@18T220]

sniperkitty 3000xx It's the sound that scientist from the Simpsons makes. It's nerd talk.

[@jasonjasonjasonjasonjason]

Love this guy more than Jimi Hendrix

[@NicolasTylerDoyle]

jeesuzz he is just a man. im sure he doesnt want all this praise. recognition, YES ABSOLUTELY . but he is just another mind that can think like everyone else. we all have that potential to do better than him and grow off of others ideas.

[@STRAWMANburner]

I need the Samsung Gear VR for the S6 TODAY!!!!

[@Retrogamer71]

Not sure I entirely get it. Mobile computing to power VR is four or five years away.

[@FlyinBoi]

Looks like you were right

[@kskinox3019]

John Carmack is now Crazy Confirmed. Really Mobile devices will be the future platform for gaming REALLY, and even VR will become failure in Gaming Industry just like the Kinect and The Virtual Boy before it, and people back then though that those useless machine will become THE FUTURE OF GAMING and look at them now, they're jokes, and nothing will beat a controller in your hand and a screen in front of you.

[@iiiSnake]

My keyboard and mouse would disagree with you.

[@kskinox3019]

***** I don't care about your mouse and Keyboard Opinions M8.

[@samirc11]

Your comment is dripping with ignorance and stupidity, please… just please…

[@18T220]

Do you know how many people game on mobiles now, It's a huge percentage of overall market share. Fact is casual gamers outnumber hardcore gamers. (I class console gamers as casual but the official charts don't) Also game controllers are garbage, Mouse and keyboard are better for control in most games.

[@cwidd1929]

John Carmack referring to Zuckerberg as "Zuck" makes me uncomfortable

[@vaporISNTsmoke]

They should of filtered the customer service questions , seriously, I asked on the forums and I can't get an answer....let me ask john carmack during a keynote speech...wtf, Seriously ....buy a phone in a territory supported ,

[@Aloyhero]

Holograms will replace VR trust me that's going to happen.

[@ShredST]

Neural interface that sends sensory data directly into your brain will be the ultimate.

[@SuperEvoken]

BloodCroft different technology, different application - not competing.

[@warlockboyburns]

i want an omni baby bouncer

[@KsNoz]

comparing the xbox one to the game cube LMAO XD

[@thelegacyization]

Shame, I am dumb. Only dreams remain

[@KrzysztofKotarba]

Carmack is like a super nerd :D

[@John-Spartan]

Really cool, very interesting. But what the hell are the "gay shooters" he keeps talking about?

[@ingliss]

I thought that, but it's "Gaze shooters"

[@alcor741]

It's sound that way, but he's actually saying 'gaze shooters' - as in using head movement tied to crosshair position in an FPS and such.

[@John-Spartan]

Sean Inglis Thanks, I thought it was my bad english knowledge's fault. xD

[@Dinkymod]

+Filipe Herbert It's not your English. I'm American, and I thought he was saying Gay Shooter. And this is the first time I've heard of "Gaze" shooters.

[@mayday303]

XBox advisory board, sounds like a bunch of evil farmers!

[@fitness4822]

Fuck Gaben. Hail John Carmack

[@superjaykramer]

Any looser can guess the future in VR !

[@Jossos]
