Your rants hurt the eyes just to look at and give brain cancer to follow through. Besides all your pseudo objections to the promotion are countered in previous posts, Once again, read the thread before you post such non-sense and make a fool out of yourself.


Regretfully, I have read the whole whopping 4 pages of this thread and have found the only cancer causing posts to be the ones in which you ask for a handout and then try to disguise that fact with an alleged "promotion".

But like I said, I'm really tired from explaining things to the likes of you, so feel free to go back to your bad attempt at a Jedi mind trick.

Because I certainly have no intention of proceeding with this inadvertent bumping of a pitiful thread.

I bid you farewell.

Personally I'd rather see CCP partner with HTC and Valve than with Oculus and Facebook for the PLEX for VR HMD offer. I was never fond of Facebook and I'm apprehensive about what the practical results of their acquisition will mean in terms of Rift software, user privacy/data gathering and publicity/marketing.

Unreal Engine 4 already supported Oculus Rift, Gear VR, and Project Morpheus, but 2 weeks ago Epic Games, the makers of UE4 have announced it will be supporting the HTC Vive too. Since Valkyrie is being worked up on UE4 it's possible for the developers to adapt it to SteamVR technology, which is looking to be a step ahead of its competitors.

There's nothing to be afraid of, Virtual Reality will rehabilitate your mind and eventually your body. You'll be alright I promise, just concentrate. Okay? We'll try some music.

This is true spirituality!

Looking at recent news feeds it looks like Oculus' CEO wants to bundle the Rift with a PC for $1500. Wonder if he's trying to raise funds to pay an incoming lawsuit fine, since this company named Total Recall Technologies is accusing them of having stolen confidential intellectual property used to build the Rift.

If that isn't enough reasons to say NO to Oculus well take a look at this shocking footage of someone using it.

The new hi-tech FaceRift app website is also already online.

Oculus might be owned by Facebook and it will probably jeopardize their user's cyberspace privacy/anonymity and bomb them with trashy ads, but at least they're not banning pornographic content from being experienced on it!

This comes as great news and opens up great opportunities for pleasure biz professionals. There are already many Rift Virtual Sex applications under development listed at this site. My weapon of choice initially was the Vive too but unless they confirm VR Sex won't be blocked on it I'd rather get a Rift.

Offering a (small) ISK bonus for doing community work in a provable way is from my personal perspective fine.

Yeah it would be pretty cool if we could exchange PLEX for VR HMD, I hadn't heard of the video card for PLEX event. :)

To all you guys crying about the possible PLEX isk price inflation with this promotion, take a look at how much it inflated with the PLEX for GOOD program (that actually sinks much more PLEX than a PLEX for item event does). It merely went up 60 million isk, it's currently at ~870 mil and probably will not go over 900 mil.
The market stock shrinked a bit but it'll grow back soon enough and the price will go down again.

Like Mr Epeen wrote before, find something legit to get worked up over.


well just for the fact that you'd even compare plex for good with plex for for a fecking VR headset.

helping others in RL when they are in peril,, feck yes!

helping others (very few others) in RL to get a VR set ??? really???

It's okay, I didn't expect the PLEX for VR HMD offer to get support from (very few) people who lack comprehension/judgement sense and spell "f*cking" with an "e". Fortunately there are people playing the game and working at CCP who understand why it's a good opportunity for everybody.

I does not matter how many times you going to post in this topic.
This will be abused by people wanting to do big payouts out of eve , additionally there is no profit in this kind promotion for CCP, just a way to lose money.

I think this would be a good idea! Try it as a promotion and see how it goes and if it works well, then maybe maintain it

no it's not ok,, someone disagrees with you and you try jump all over them and get personal.

i'm from Ireland. we say Feck all the time. that's not about to change anytime soon,, so yea. grab yourself a spoon and get in line gobshite.
this will never be a good thing for everybody. but for a few yes. perhaps those that cashed in on the recent amazon aurum deals?

you got a no support and i even said sorry. but i guess that's just not good enough for some richards.

My fondness for Steam and its products grows everyday... Logged in today and noticed they have a new refunding policy since June 2 http://store.steampowered.com/steam_refunds/ you can now get any Steam store games or software refunded within 2 weeks after purchasing if you didn't play/use them for more than 2 hours... I just got GTA V refunded, bought it 2 months ago to broadcast it on twitch but turns out my laptop can't handle it... These guys rock, now I have the money back in my steam wallet and can buy other games.

For now it seems it's not possible to get refunded on Steam hardware (controller, link, machines or Steam VR) but maybe in the future even this will be possible! I'm sure if CCP partnered with them to acquire the PLEX for VR headsets they would kindly refund any that were not sold in the offer!
