Aerielle del Rosario Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 I’ve seen a lot of news lately about VR competitions and I want to know your thoughts about it because a lot of people are debating whether VR should be part of competitions as some people say it is a fad and some are not sure if it will take off. I personally think that VR competitions are a new step for us gamers, it will broaden our skills with virtual reality aside from AI battles. VR Fest, world’s largest virtual reality festival, always held this massive festival for everyone to watch Virtual Reality streamers compete with each other then The World Cyber Games established Final Assault (VR RTS game) as their first new horizons to give players a new and unique environment to play in. Although the classic consoles are PC, PlayStation, Xbox, Wii, and Mobile Phones… we can give this one a try, right? It would be funny if they are competing but the game is too realistic and someone ended up going outside without anyone noticing him 🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 VR in its current state isn't really suitable for E-sports. In the future, it will happen at some point but the current tech we know as VR is very gimmicky at best and is riddled with issues.

Aerielle del Rosario Posted May 31, 2019 Author Share Posted May 31, 2019 I see, so before we can use it esports it should be fixed 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd go as far as to say that VR hasn't really progressed all that much since its introduction 3-4 years ago. Aerielle del Rosario 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceExplorer Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 Agree with everything @killamch89 said. VR is currently not suitable for esports and the question is when it will be, but with its further development, I'm sure we'll see more of it.

At the current rate VR technology is progressing, I'd say give it another 6-7 years and it will take another 2-3 years of gradual integration to make it mainstream in Esports competitions.

skyfire Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 VR games are a bit harder to sustain on esports category though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeowsePad Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 I don't think VR will be common in esports for a long time. The fact that only a few graphics cards on the market are capable of decent performance on VR games makes it less than ideal for an environment where performance is everything.

JoyFreak Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 I can see it being a thing for e-sports. It involves physically moving and could encourage sport activities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaucyPastaTho Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 I never heard of e sports using VRS. Has this just started? I essentially thought VR Was just for the casual player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shovide Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 It is not a thing right now, but I believe that in the distant future eSports will be a lot about this technology Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin11 Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Who knows, in the future it can simply come to stay via E-sports tournaments. I am hopeful if VR being popular in the E-sports industry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are already high school VR leagues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
