Pre-Flight check.... taking a walk around the Corvette's Flight Deck

Postby JohnLuke » Sat Jul 30, 2016 12:09 pm

Getting ready to head out for some Haz-RES hunting?

Before you go, take a walk around the cabin as part of your Pre-Flight Check .... just to make sure things are in order. ;)

Tour of the Corvette flight deck

My designated 'play space' isn't very big, so I wasn't able to go very far behind the seat.

I am loving the Vive!! 8-) :D 8-)

Yup VR is awesome.

I logged off and took my HMD off at 2 am last night and thought.
If the resolution was higher and the graphics little better, I'd probably never take the fool thing off.

Rule 1: Pillage. Then burn.
Rule 2: No such thing as overkill, as long as there are reloads.

For everything else I love about the Cutter, I think they did a much better job on the bridge of the Corvette.

Indeed. Still would like enough room to see what is behind the cockpit doors...
Lounge is not big enough :P

Large, but not quite opulent enough for Empire royalty ;)

I'm not sure if the Cutter is really opulent enough, let alone large enough, on the bridge.

Thanks, JohnLuke - cool vid. I've really been itching to just go ahead and order a Vive, but the OSVR went on pre-order today, so I'll give that a shot. Your vid inspired me to check, because they didn't send an email (which doesn't inspire confidence). :roll:
It's time to give this another go.

If it's anything like the ships that I've been able to get through the door, it's the inside of the SRV bay and whatever surfaces of the thrusters and some parts of the landing gear. The model used in the render of the bridge is a bit odd in what it includes though. Parts of the outside of the ship for example aren't actually there.
