[QUOTE="MBeeching, post: 280769, member: 7491"] Thanks for the heads-up, an enjoyable and insightful listen. Mike definitely stated 1000 tokens in exchange for gold bars so there are clearly some internal miscommunication issues. In principle the token system is quite generous and any semi-decent player should be able to keep their balance reasonably buoyant and continue playing providing they resist constant restarts when the first ball drains! Farsight seem very keen for people to use this system and have indeed used words to that effect when responding to reviews on the Oculus Store. I'm intrigued how it generates revenue, are Oculus or Stern perhaps paying them a few cents per play for customer engagement? Despite the controversial gold bar situation I can't deny I'm enjoying SPA VR and have already spent 22hrs playing it, whilst somewhat unnecessary I've purchased four tables as a 'token' of my appreciation (RBION, AC/DC, GB, Star Trek). Farsight's tables have never played better and clearly benefit from the increased frame rate and display technology. I'm currently using 1.5x supersampling in conjunction with Nvidia's maximum quality settings which I find satisfactory though a HMD with increased pixel count would substantially improve legibility. I'm planning to post a review but struggling to decide an appropriate and fair score, hopefully criticism is being taken on-board and there will be bug fixes and adjustments in the not too distant future, though their track record is far from exemplary.
