Any idea of something to compare Real Life to in Virtual Reality? Leave some suggestions down in the comments and we may do a little series on these kind of experiments in the future!
I played a lot of Pavlov Shack on my Quest 2 and at one point also wondered if it would improve my real life skills. I had an airsoft gun and used it again on my homemade shooting range, and the most interesting thing was that muscle memory took advantage and I was able to shoot the different targets in no time without any problems, although I never shot seriously with the airsoft before and also had no idea about proper aiming.
I played 10 hours of City Car Driving in VR with a wheel and pedals, even though it is not the real thing and the headtracking has delay in it, it helped me being more comfortable when driving !
@@MBaderson Clutch and break pedals are the least realistic, (no true feedback, abrupt deceleration) the rest is pretty good. If you get City Car Driving at 5 bucks during sales, let us know the performance and CPU spikes, headtracking delay
Sounds fair enough, though I was planning on doing Assetto Corsa in VR for the practicing, this combined with the Logitech wheel and pedals setup I thought should be close enough to real life while still having the benefits of a VR headset, but I will plan all that after I got some rest from this very busy time making this video haha :3
probably got close to 2k hours sim racing in vr now, it will make you a better drive no doubt. Depending how serous you take it you can learn a ton about real world driving. Assetto is great but iracing was more fun for me for serious racing
Very true! In this case it was just a quick show of the general difference for most people (and an excuse for me to shoot some fun guns) but you are correct that it really can depend on other factors
@@MBaderson I don't blame you at all, my professor and I might do a research project on relfex sights with astigmatism strictly because it will give us an excuse to shoot a bunch!
@@MBaderson Just an idea, but I imagine you could get a team of experienced VR shooters vs a team of non-VR players, whilst making sure both teams don't have much paintball/lazertag experience. That being said, the sample size of the experiment would be too small to be statistically significant. Perhaps to get a larger sample size, laser tag arcades already keep track of player scores and performances, all they need is a questionnaire asking if a player has experience in VR shooters, and all the required data would be there for a statistically significant test. I imagine that's probably outside the scope of your videos though, but it would be cool to see!
I honestly didn't know about this one, it looks awesome! Maybe if I revisit this some time in the future I could take a look but for now my budget can't stretch that far :3
subbed. thats a great idea, though when i usually practice i use airsoft replicas of the real guns, which is definitely better. i guess the test is more about seeing if vr can be used to practice stuff in general, than just guns, but still.... pretty cool video
For specifically shooting I would also recommend something like airsoft to practice properly, but I am glad you liked the idea of this! I wanted to mainly explore the possibilities of what VR can offer for practice over multiple types of skills so I will probably make more episodes like this on different things like driving as well :3
That's actually pretty interesting topic, a year ago I was asking the same question: "Can practising in vr improve the real life skill?". I did some googling and found some guy trying to become better at boxing, And then planning to go on the real tournament. Although I actually have no clue what the results were, It was just a plan or something similar.
I may make a series out of questions like these because it really caught my attention as to what kind of things can be bad habits as opposed to things that actually help you in the real thing... Maybe things like racing in VR and real life and such :3 I am glad you enjoyed my little experiment though! Hope to see you back next time!
There's no such thing with pistol sights as "sighted in for you" Your grip and stance made me cringe It was a 22lr... Please get proper training before touching an actual firearm again. Not trying to be mean, just saying....there's a lot to learn. This was an interesting video I guess (?) but go get proper firearm training please.
Don't use the word "cringe" if you want to come off as a proffesional, mate. By all means, Show us how it's done. Link your own personally recorded video as a comment underneath mine. You have 2 months.

Definetly driving, maybe fencing also?
Ping pong, bowling, putt putt

That is so cool! I was thinking of doing a video on the effects of driving in VR as opposed to real life as well, will bring this up then!

@@MBaderson Assetto Corsa is the best VR racing sim I tried, very smooth. Take some rest whenever

Great video! 😍
Baby Michael! Also I love the day 1 second card cuz what the heck even happened with that one! 🤣
Skill issues ;)
Note: the recoil comparison from
.45 acp, 9mm and .22 caliber can vary on the bullet and firearm

Using a vr at the range could be could if you could get some sort of lazer that shows you right where the target would land, NVG style
I always wondered the same thing, but more so in the context of a paintball/lazertag match.
I fully understand, it is a little harder to quantify the results of something like that but I might follow it up with something like it :3

Yo this vid fire
very nice!
Thank you! Cheers!
Peng Peng! 😯
try Provolver haptic vr gun.
