Oculus Rift CV1 / PC VR in general

Who bought a CV1?

I plan to get one when Assetto Corsa gets the next VR update, hopefully with VR menus. I had a DK2 and it worked great with AC but as there are no VR menus you can't setup your car before a race / online session or view any other options which is more or less a complete dealbreaker. The experience, though, is unbelievably cool and immersive and I would have kept the DK2 but the resolution made the experience somewhat like driving while legally blind and nausea was a huge problem even with correct IPD set. I hear dramamine works well for the nausea so I'm willing to give it a shot again.

DCS is another legit title that has good VR support, and the overall experience is great but you can't really use it for missions without having labels turned on. Unfortunately DCS is somewhat poorly optimized so framerate is a big issue. The flight model also blows ass but what can you expect when you're used to X-Plane 10?

Thoughts on VR in general are also welcome.
