VRMMO RPG

[chocostain]

When do you think VRMMO RPG's be created? Have you seen sword art online?

I hope I'm still alive when this technology is given birth.

i think with augmented reality starting to pick up im sure eventually a company will be bold enough to think of something similar

 

[bystander]

Many people might claim a lot of MMO's are already considered virtual reality, but until the Oculus Rift becomes popular, the visuals won't quite get you there.

i would give anything for this to become real

 

[hoshiyagami]

Well, even with OR, that'll only be visuals... I don't think it'll be till around the time the 2045 initiative is complete that we'll see something completely like SAO, though, at that point, such would be the perfect cure for aging... your body starts failing you, have your consciousness switched to that of a virtual world (though the 2045 init is more for transfer of consciousness over to an android or the like, the technology would be essentially the same for transfer over to a virtual world)

I think VRMMORPG will be Created is 2020 may be i wish but if not we will make it i have made a Group of people that is composed of a Doctor,GM,Mechanical Enginer,and a Game Programer and most of all a Artist i wish we will be succsesful

 

[Jincheng He]

I assume that i either be a player or the creator.

 

[MrCaptainGab]

Okay, a VRMMO. Like in Sword Art Online. But if a game like SAO will exist, i will never join it.
(Only if i can disconnect. :3) Or if i can't disconnect, I will be in the 1st city.
But i prefer Alfheim Online :3

Well with the combination of the OR (Oculus Rift) and the Myo Armband they now have the ability to send the muscle signals for your arms and head movements into the game. So I would say it will be getting here sooner than we would have thought. Yet as mentioned before it probably wont really take off till the OR and MA really get big. Still I have high hopes and cant wait to see what it would be like to put on a helmet while laying in bed and go into a full dive environment.

Around 2040.

Just a little more times in near future ...

Sony anounced Project Morpheus - their VR headset - to be launched in 2016. They did showcase working models with demos, one of them was a Sword Art Online demo, so SAO is pretty close, actually.

There are various mmos with VR support on the way (ryzom and The Rift are already playable, and a bunch of titles under development), and the technology is mostly available for the hardware, mostly the hardware itself as well.
Virtuix Omni (http://www.virtuix.com/)
Novint Xio (http://www.novint.com/index.php/novintxio)
ControlVR (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/controlvr/control-vr-motion-capture-for-vr-animation-and-mor)
P5 gloves (http://www.cwonline.com/store/view_product.asp?Product=1179)
Razer Hydra (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Razer_Hydra)
The Hug Shirt (http://cutecircuit.com/collections/the-hug-shirt/)

So in all, 2020 is more realistic for a VRMMO knowing all the hardware is close to ready.
Not talking about perfect but at least a working VRMMO.

The problem is NOT the fact that people need a VR headset, even the Oculus DK2 is good enough for a playable and enjoyable VRMMO, and it's 350$ price isn't too bad either.
The problem is that the PC powerful enough to give a good experience with, ended up costing around 4000$ which is not an amount an average gamer would want to spend.

As for the totally immersive version as seen in SAO: it's pointless, then you would have to actually run inside the game for hours and you would get actually tired. I certainly wouldn't want that. It's a lot easier to sit in an armchair pushing buttons.

So in short:
According to Sony, VR is coming in 2016.

There is a fully working space shooter VR mmo already available too.

believe it or not there is already tech out there that give the full dive experience like from sao but the military are the only one's that can get there hands on it for training in a virtual reality.

sorry but it already exists

It all depends on what you consider virtual reality. If you want a Halo deck experience, where you can touch and physically touch everything without any special worn hardware, that will be a long way out. Others would consider MMO's to be virtual reality now, without any 3D tech involved, as they are virtual worlds people live in. I've tested out MMO's with 3D Vision, which some might consider the start of VR.

It's all a gray scale. At what point do we consider it VR?

First, Do you guys even know what does VR mean? It means virtual reality, something that is fake but then you can feel or smell or see things.

This kind of tech would take forever for us to harvest. First, we do not even know a lot about our brain, while this kind of tech is linked to our brain. Second, you guys say that we are very close to making it? We are not even close to making this kind of tech. This OR cannot even be compared, you can only see things that are 3 dimensional from the screen in-front of you. What about The nerve-gear? It connectes to the brain, and upcloads everything to the MMO world with the internet. So how are we even close to making this kind of TECH?

Virtual Reality can exist at many levels. You are only looking at it from the very highest level of it, like the Matrix, but a game world which simulates a world can also be considered VR, and everything between.

If a Game like SAO exist where you cant leave till you beat it and if you die you die Sounds fun just dont die
