When it comes to gaming, some people like to take it to the next level. We've seen gamers build their own extravagant consoles, like the infamous £277,000 PlayStation Nintendo, or even create functional controllers based on artifacts from their favorite games. But now, a group of friends have taken gaming to a whole new level of ridiculousness.
Using a racing wheel, VR headset, and homemade mechanics, these friends have created an authentic tank simulator to play World Of Tanks. And the internet is buzzing about it, with many calling it "the best DIY simulator" they've ever seen.
In a video that has gone viral on social media, we see how the simulator works. One person uses a racing wheel to steer the tank, while another loads water bottles into a homemade hydraulic contraption that serves as the tank's barrel. Meanwhile, a third person uses a swirling mechanism to aim and fire the barrel. And to top it all off, they even have a VR headset rigged above their heads as a periscope, just like in a real tank.
It's truly an impressive feat, and the video has gained 30,000 upvotes on Reddit alone. People are both amazed and shocked at the level of detail and effort put into this simulator. Some even joke that it would be easier to just join the armored division in an army rather than building this.
The video was originally posted on a Chinese video-sharing site, and while there isn't much information about the creators, it's clear that they put a lot of work into this project. Unfortunately, there's no tutorial or explanation on how they managed to build the simulator and connect it to the game. But that doesn't take away from the fact that it's an incredible achievement.
Of course, while this simulator provides a more immersive experience, it's definitely a lot more challenging than just using a traditional controller or keyboard and mouse. But for these friends, the extra effort is worth it for the ultimate gaming experience.
