Ha OK, just looked it up. Most successful crowd funded VR project.

Not quite Star Citizen levels though… :wink:

Ah nice!! :smiley: …

LOL, not sure if you’re joking or not? They give those kind of prices to the weirdest projects so it wouldn’t surprise me. But then, it also wouldn’t suprise me if Pimax just is using this logo without even winning anything LOL

No it’s true, they were the most funded VR crowdfunding project and apparently, that gets you in the books

Kickstarter world record based on lies. Ie no stretch goal ever sent. Congratulations!

I was 100% behind Pimax but now their reputation is tarnished forever.

You have to Kickstart more - then you would know we are on track rather good :wink: - sure there is much potential left to “aquire”, but…
we have the HMD, the Basestations are coming, controllers not quite what was planned but near (Index Controllers), fingertracking seems on the way, eyetracking better than thought but more expensive,…
I think thats a good ROI for investing in a company developing future VR.

Kickstart more???! After Pimax I’m done lol. Fool me once.

Sorry that you feel like that and I can understand it.
But all those platforms are really “investing” - not buying products - there is always a “gambling” like effect - could lose it all, come out good or hit the big win - we did not lose it all so hey, its not bad :wink: .

I’ve been waiting for this game for two years, so far they’ve released a very poor alpha build (edit. more like a tech demo) and some pictures.

I’m following Star Citizen. This is all a breeze :joy:

You just need to have appropriate expectations. I’ve backed 3 Kickstarters and all have turned out rather well. My 8K is a good headset (better than I expected, actually) and while there’s the issue of bonuses and delays, that’s less important to me than a VR headset I can truly enjoy.

I understand that not everyone feels that way, with good reason(s).

Pimax did deliver a product.

I’m confused - had read Pimax was a “Cult” and was expecting anyone with even a slightly critical opinion to be viciously/verbally attacked :wink:
