Ride Coasters in VR!

(1/2) > >>

jglonek:
This is pretty crazy. Starting this summer, a coaster at select parks (Great Adventure isn't included!) will be equipped with Samsung Gear VR headsets that you wear while riding! An example given was soaring through Metropolis while on Superman at SFNE (https://www.sixflags.com/newengland/attractions/vr/experience).

I already feel nauseous.

This won't affect loading times!  How long until most of the VR headsets no longer work?
I have a hard enough time sitting on some coasters after some customers...let alone strap a sweaty headset to my face.
I'll take my Superman without please....Hopefully this will go the way of speakers on coasters and disappear!!!

dkny6363:
Agreed!

I rode a VR headset at Europa Park last year and it was a really cool experience. They had a seperate queue for it and you had to pay 5 euros for it, better than I thought it would be.

I don't see this as something I'd prefer to the real thing, but I won't knock it till I try it.
