What's the goon-pulse on Ultrawings 2? I'm super bummed it's not crossbuy, so I can't airlink it or try it on Index  I've been watching reviews but haven't found anything showing how the controls 'feel' considering its just two wireless controllers and no HOTAS. Edit - Just finished another review and I guess it is coming to PCVR and will have multiplayer and HOTAS support! Definitely waiting for that.

I'm super bummed it's not crossbuy, so I can't airlink it or try it on Index They've got some good haptic/audio feedback on the sticks for the motion controls - there are different tones of click when you move through positions with the stick, and a distinct click when you reach the limit of the sticks movement in a direction. I think it works well, and the whole game is built around that looseness of control. I like the little plane bootup sequence cockpit things and the handheld pistol shooting too much to give up motion control for it. give me more "big complicated cockpits with lots of buttons and analog sticks" games, please. where is the steel battalion vr replica. As for the game itself, it's very much more ultrawings. Though it feels like you get faster planes much quicker than in the first game. the challenges feel very familiar - lots of flying through rings and popping balloons. though the early planes have legit cannons on them this time so they've got you doing more dogfighting and target shooting than i remember playing in the first game - lots of ammo management in those segments, one of the earliest levels tasks you with destroying 3 bombers. they're surrounded by escorts and you definitely don't have enough ammo to take everyone out, have to focus your fire and dance around the fire from the escorts

In Zenith, is there a way to make holding weapons toggle-able? Squeezing to keep my weapons out is starting to hurt a bit.

You basically trade a bit of damage for a truckload of sustain (vs the dps specs) to the point where you can solo most early group quests and events. drat, this is the way to upgrade stamina. Just grabbed like 28 tears in 1.5 hours to get to level 4 stamina. Highly recommended.

I went this route: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0194WDVHI/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B086Y6V2H4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 The strap is nice, the magnet in the strap is strong enough to hold the battery alone, but I put on the metal plate for extra security. You also get the added benefit of a more balanced headset with the added weight on the back.

When I first played Beat Saber, I enjoyed it, but didn't love it. It was like an IGN 8 out of 10 for me. But the game has a remarkable learning curve. Almost like learning a legitimate hobby or sport. It took me a year to get good. Once you can tackle single saber expert plus songs, it's pretty drat gratifying.

 The BoboVR M2 strap was great until it broke, so I'm back to a DAS with a bunch of custom 3d printed adapters, velcro, aliexpress faceplate and padding, VR cover DAS padding and a 10000mah Anker battery. SCheeseman fucked around with this message at 02:17 on Feb 6, 2022 |

Jesus christ I am falling in love with Skyrim all over again. This spell binding mod is drat near everything I want from a magic system. Complex but not so much that you easily forget how to cast in battle. Loads of cool combos and weapon interactions. Also, having the game actually get dark is so great because now I have a reason to cast Mage Light, carry a torch or use my special cat eyes. Doing yet another mage run where I summon as much random bullshit to fight for me as possible. Forgot I resurrected a giant spider so when I got to an Inn, it spawned right next to me and scared the poo poo out of me.

Nthing what everyone is saying about Ultrawings 2. I spend half an hour trying to land the dang WW2 plane on my new island airport only to realize I had been forgetting about my landing gear edit: Oh man the shooting balloons bit is great ! I took the ultralight to the 2nd regional airport, a great 5 minute flight. I just got this on a whim and I'm really glad I did.

Metos posted:Not the person you asked, but I've been playing with the FUS modpack from Wabbajack set to Cangar's Preset but with crouch to stealth turned off and its really an incredible time. Just remember there's extra instructions in the install process for graphics settings that you might be missing. Yeah, I'm using FUS and it is aces. Visually it's great for lighting but most things are very low rez if I stop to examine it. Not sure what I messed up in the install process. I thought I followed it exactly.

Does/did Skyrim fix the companion summoning bug? I remember getting into a giant tussle with a bunch of assholes only to find out Serena had resurrected a loving chicken instead of literally anything else dead on the battlefield.

My original Rift is now only displaying on the right eye screen. No apparent damage but it did sit unused for quite a while. Audio was also dead in one ear before this so I removed the earpieces. Am I at the point where I should just get a Quest 2 if I want to play VR games?

If you had a Rift before then a Quest 2 is the most logical step up yes.

The Walrus posted:is Hitman any better yet? I just need them to fix the roomscale/IK issues I'm good on everything else. Those particular issues seem to be completely baked into the game at a fundamental level so I doubt they will change through patching. They did have a couple patches which fixed some performance and stability problems but I don’t think we are going to see any of that kind of improvement. After one hour of play I was super disappointed with the limitations but I went back and I think I’ve got 30 or 40 hours in the game now and it’s one of my favorite all time VR experiences (I haven’t played these games outside of VR) and definitely don’t regret buying them.

GutBomb posted:Those particular issues seem to be completely baked into the game at a fundamental level so I doubt they will change through patching. Not quite in the way you think. It should be a relatively simple measure of changing what the root of the player avatar orients to and its positioning. It's an IK fix, not a fundamental flaw in the engine. Off the top of my head you could fix the rotation thing just by making the orientation of the playspace always rotate to towards the direction the player's facing. Granted I'm thinking in Unity, but there should surely be an equivalent of Vector3.RotateTowards() in the Glacier Engine. The player position thing you could (very crudely) fix by just having the hip position locked to the X/Y of the head minus the distance from head to hip for Z. Maybe put in an angular offset when crouching? The bigger question is what the gently caress makes the right hand go mental and physics itself frantically sometimes when you pick up an object or choke someone.

Ultrawings isn’t a sim, really. Yes you have to turn the fuel on and stuff with huge chunky knobs, but then you fire a pistol out of the cockpit at giant balloons as well Think pilotwings but in VR

How long does it take in Ultrawings 1 to get a different vehicle, anyway? I bounced off it after the "Fly this super slow gyroplane thing through these rings" job because I had already played and enjoyed a lot of VTOL VR and it just didn't keep my interest. I realize it might be unfair to compare it to VTOL because they're supposed to be so different, of course.

Fully expect the same in ultrawings 2. It's like if Gran Turismo 1 had limited you to a moped rather than letting you get the miata

dupersaurus posted:The first plane unlock is a loooot faster in 2 Yeah I don't have hard figures, but I'm pretty sure I unlocked the second and third planes (spitfire style prop plane, jet with no throttle only "jet on" and "jet off oh gently caress glide") and the second island in.. easily the first half an hour? maybe a bit longer to get the Comet (jet), but it's not hanging around with unlocks. On the other hand, 90% of what you do is "fly through these rings", or variations on the theme, so

Does anyone know the easiest way to see date of last update for an app? Couldn't find it on the store page for the app.

The Quest version of Ragnarock is on sale today ($18.99) and they recently added 2 new songs: https://www.oculus.com/experiences/quest/developer-post/4707912772627883/ Are there significant differences between the Quest and Steam versions? I generally try to buy VR stuff on Steam if there is a choice, but this seems like a good pick-up-and-go portable game. After checking some, there don't appear to be any PC mods of the game, and adding custom songs is easy enough on both platforms. It isn't cross-buy either.
