How safe is playing EVE in 3d?

The thing to worry about is the 3D walking-in-station stuff. One of my alts has an ass that just seems so real . . .

So, yeah, umm, don't put a hole in your monitor with your man-junk. That can be dangerous. It hurts the junk. And the alt looks weird with a hole where her, well, hole ought to be.

I honestly feel like I just read fifty shades of dumb. --CCP Falcon

I just had a thought.

What if Hilmar decides to trap all the online players in the game by manipulating our VR gear? We could all potentially be trapped inside New Eden for years, forced to live internet spaceships as our reality until we can clear the last room of a 9001/10 complex, and if we get podded, we die for real!

The worst part, we'd all look like ourselves from RL due to a mirror computer program that uses our biometric data to construct and replicate our physical appearance, and then bypass the avatar creator, and make the universe full of...::shudders:: unspeakable things..neckbeardy things!

I only hope, that as a Beta Tester, I can rise to the occasion and become the lone dual blaster wielding gunboat commander that saves us all after falling in love with a badass kiting specialist pilot with legendary RoF implants and sacrificing myself after she is killed in order to deal the final boss the last volley of void that vaporizes the last of his hull..


And now I need to explain to my boss why the monitor and keyboard are now covered with coffee.

Come hell or high water, this sick world will know I was here.

Nope, 3D is not safe...
I lost an eye when space debri hit me during warp!

I don't always have a signature; but when I do, it doesn't say anything at all

I ain't believin' I read this. Not the labor part, the part where it's actually "there" to be read. Shocked

We must accommodate the idiocracy.

You shouldn't be playing if so.

It's not going to hurt you, no. The particles are nothing more than pixels on your screen.


I hadn't considered epilepsy, but you've added onto my worries.

You can't be serious...

I haven't encountered a single thing that would worry my eyes, in this game.

Anything Nvidia could possibly add to the game, I don't think will hurt you. At all. Ever.
Unless you have aforementioned condition where you should not be playing video-games.


My main concern was some sort of thing where my brain fails to see the difference between reality and the virtual word, and perceives any wound inflicted on my ship as 'real', possibly spiking my blood pressure and causing real-life damage. I've read about things like that, although admittedly mostly in fiction.




Are you talking about...jovian wet grave but without the pod?

On the bright side, at least now it's no longer in 3D

Alright, before you laugh, I'm not a big "Computers Guy". ANyways, I'm wondering how safe it is to play EVE with the 3d NVIDIA feature enabled. Is it entirely special effects, or is there anything I need to be worried about when things are flying out at my face?

Just duck when things come your way. And hold your breath in those bright shiny clouds in deadspace areas.
