It always does - no matter what the real underlying issue is or root cause of the problem may be

Well, if nothing else this patch is candidate for a new negative record of downtime, servers were down from 10:00 GMT to 15:00 GMT, 5 hours.

Just feel like saying that the "maintain level horizon" will also do some really weird stuff
Especially if you forget to turn it off.
Heck I turned this on before starting today and my head was rotating in station.
Thought my head tracker had been broken or something.
On the plus side. It seems that mouse cursor is now drawn on the same plane as the menus so you don't have to looking straight ahead to use the mouse.
This has been rather annoying me since god knows when.

Thanks JL. One thing in particular caught my eye:

This bodes well for lesser "VR Ready" PCs.
But I agree with general consensus, that premium fidelity will equate to top tier next gen gpu, and probably cpu too.
Can't wait to read/see the first hands on reviews of Horizons in the VR.

I can't wait to get my HMD. But it probably won't arrive until June so I guess I still need to be patient about it..
Until then I will just have to suffer through with my 34" screen and eye tracker. ..

This is becoming common knowledge, Lave radio recently discussed (in a positive way towards Mobius) the recent Mobius AMA.
I guess it's hard not to feed the trolls when you state Ask Me Anything!
