      Carmack wants devs to hire voice actors, because voice actors make every expertise better. COULD NOT AGREE MORE #OC6

      Carmack supports a less curated experience on Quest, but gets both arguments. He sees building to Go as a sort of Back door to getting your stuff on Quest. #OC6

      Half of Quest users have 40mb streaming, and many have more. Carmack thinks aiming for 10-15 mb for quality is a disservice. There’s room to push more to the headsets. #OC6

      Social VR is a mess. Oculus Rooms is on the way out, Horizons will take a while to grow. Lots of iteration, little cohesion. #OC6

      Casting has improved dramatically, but there’s more things happening here. Possible streaming to browsers and miracast, maybe even streaming to a tethered screen when WiFi isn’t a thing. #OC6

          Virtual meetings is a thing Oculus is working on internally, because there are no good remote conferencing things. But that doesn’t mean everyone lives in the headset at work #OC6

          Everyone needs to submit feedback to Oculus and vote for big issues. That data is important, don’t just cry on Twitter. User voice is your friend. Bookmark https://oculus.uservoice.com/

          Time to talk about what future headsets might look like. Oculus does a lot of prototyping, but there are often software/cost things to consider. #OC6

          Putting the battery in the back isn’t great for a couple of reasons, tracking using the current tech is going to get better over time. Splitting displays for movement gives you more options for IPD and other things. OLED vs LCD is a constant conversation #OC6

          Technically the Rift S can run at 90fps but there’s some temperature sensitivity. Quest display is rated for 72 but future versions could easily do 90 #OC6

          Higher resolution displays are a target, creating environments dense enough for the video to be 1080 when playing on a VR theater #OC6

          Carmack is currently very happy with the current audio capabilities of the headsets, and headphone jacks aren’t going anywhere. Bluetooth headsets are being revisited, because tech has improved. #OC6

          Why using “outdated” SOCs on Go and Quest? Using things that aren’t bleeding edge was easier before. Current team is great, next system will likely have a much close to modern SOC. Likely made by Qualcomm, because of the current relationship strength. #OC6

          Computer vision tech is going to get much better quickly thanks to new tech on the SOC. RAM has been a proven issue with this generation. As multitasking is supported, memory handling will be more aggressive. #OC6

          Battery life vs headset weight is a constant conversation. Wireless charging and quick charging aren’t off the table #OC6

          What about #5G for Oculus? Vendors are excited because hype, and more bandwidth is cool, but there’s no unique quality that makes 5G a universal problem solver for anything. Unlikely to be a serious priority #OC6

          Hand tracking and controller tracking are actually an either/or system right now because explosives are so different. Can’t track both at the same time, something Carmack wants to address moving forward. #OC6
