Both theaters still retain their screens. A set version of the film will play in the style of a normal motion simulator for those who may not be able to handle VR or would prefer not using it.Lord Robert said:

I think the other part of the size: it comes down to that’s what it took to make it comfortable and stable while the platform moved. This is definitely a form follows function moment.

Having worn plenty of cheap and expensive VR headsets, I can assure you that the more support across the head, the more comfortable it is to wear. There's nothing more uncomfortable than a huge piece of tech being smashed against your face with nothing but a strap or two holding it around your head. The additional support afforded by the headpiece should make the headsets feel significantly less heavy on the face.

Here's the link to the story on the 13News Now website for anyone who wants to watch it. It's only 1:24 long.

The Instagram pictures were awesome plus it's interesting that the theater will allow the VR version and the "regular screen" versions at the same time. Pretty smart! 
The park has a lot of passion and optimism for Battle for Eire and it shows.

See
It really digs into her face... and that piece right by her mouth seems very unhygienic.
That isn’t how it is supposed to be worn. Suzy Cheele had it on completely differently at today’s media event. It didn’t look uncomfortable.
The park wrote on Twitter that this was that person's first time trying the headset on.
It looks like the curve in the lower bar is supposed to go over the nose. Odd that they'd let her wear it like that for photos.
The masks are one-of-a kind and completely new. I don't think anyone should be surprised that people don't know how to wear them.
You're not a true theme park nerd unless you shave your head to increase coaster train speed, like swimmers.

Nope. Just story and ride vehicle/technology.
I plan to post the highlights tonight. I had a mani/pedi last night, so I didn't have time.
