My VIVE has arrived, (at least the email saying its shipped has!)

Now I patiently wait for my first foray into VR. I WISH it could've been the RIFT but know I won't be disappointed.

Yessir now I can sit on the other side, oblivious to the plight of other men.

Put your controllers on charge the moment you open the box, that way they'll be fully charged by the time you've drilled your holes and gone through the rest of the set up .

I was extremely close to buying a vive many times, the biggest issue was the lighthouse set up. I was planning on moving into my gfs house and her dad wouldnt be to happy with me installing them on his walls.

To top things off I wouldnt have any additional room/money to spend on tripods. Overall Ive been extremely satisfied with my rift so things have worked out. 🙂

I had the wands on charge for maybe 30min when I first opened the box, then had them in use for 5 hours straight (with many people, not just me) without a problem. No idea how charged they were (or close to dead), I didn't see a battery level display anywhere in steam.

It's the slang term for "man" we use out here in California.

@Trytiped - I still have my bases mounted with 3M Command tape.  So far so good, you can put a single nail in along with the tape.  If the tape fails the nail should catch and prevent it from hitting the floor.  That's no drilling and just a single nail like hanging a painting.  That should be okay with your gf's dad?
