Welp gonna add that to my VR workout routine of Gorn/Soundboxing/Thrill of the Fight, so this headset is definitely hosed (I already get IMU issues when I get too hot and sweaty) Also can you really not change the grip angle in Arizona Sunshine? The first thing I did when the main character started talking was try to shoot myself so I think this is gonna be a refund

His first post was just talking about aiming and pointing your hand/an object at something (a very natural human act, we are pretty good at it) vs mousing a crosshair over it. You seemed to be talking about shooting a handgun bigger than a 22 accurately and rapidly down the sights on the move on a controlled range which yes, takes more way more practice than skeet shooting or shouldering a rifle or drunkenly plinking stuff in a backyard. Hopefully that clears things up

rage-saq posted:That's actually a top mounted (of the controller) stock. I know some people that have them and they are ok. However, one big thing with top mounted solutions is that they cause tracking problems by occluding sensors. Combine this with the fact that you are going to be pulling the controllers fairly close to your face you compound the occlusion issue. Sorry I should've been more clear, I meant top-of-controller and bottom-of-stock which I realize is a dumb way to call it, but either way drat thanks for the info, didn't think about occlusion. I guess my biggest worry is smacking the offhand controller into the tube while reloading in a hurry, hrmm It seems pretty difficult to figure out cups for the knuckles but if he can do it and sell an easy upgrade that would be really awesome.

metztli posted:While VR in one's undies makes undeniable sense, I wound up setting up a rig by screwing a couple of hooks into one of the rafters in my space, attached a pair of retractable dog leashes a couple of feet apart, and then ran the cable through that. Only problem is that I only have really light weight leashes, so the retracting mechanism isn't strong enough to pull the cord up all the way, but it was still 10x better than it was. Once I replace the leashes with stronger ones it should be amazing. Keep us updated-- I'm way more physically active than the average VR player and keeping track of the cord is the #1 most annoying thing.

Again, just remember that 99% of VR devs and players are extremely lazy and play even melee games standing stock straight up. Get in a goddamn crouch, get into the goddamn game, play it like you're a goddamn gladiator and it is 1000000% more fun.

Gorn is cartoony enough that I didn't stress, and since Gladius looks more or less like that, except slightly less absurd graphics, it's about the level I can handle. I might try Superhot since that's also not terribly realistic and you can more or less slow it down by not moving. Awesome stuff with the retracting rig, gonna redo my room setup soon so you've given me a lot of food for thought. Definitely start with Superhot because you can take allllll the time you want to plan out john woo's human jenga.

Songbearer posted:Getting used to Sairento's lack of polish again after playing Robo Recall took some adjusting to, but man I probably count that game as one of the best "actual" games available at the moment. By that I mean that it's quick to load, easily replayable, and solid fun that doesn't wear out its welcome or become gimmicky quickly. I'm still running through my summer sale haul to pick out the refunds (trying to make sure I give everything at least a second chance, but holy poo poo these adventure games voiced by Game Dev And His Wife are testing my patience) and I gotta say the jumping/wallrunning/sliding of Sairento is just awesome. Not sure if any other game has it so it really stands out in a sea of wave shooters that are getting increasingly irrelevant in the face of Robo Recall. And the main thing Robo's missing is swords. I uninstalled Aeon after a couple minutes, the Bullet Sorrow demo was unimpressive enough for me to not even try the full game, and...I really dunno about Raw Data. I will try to run out my 1:59 hours before refunding but I really dunno. Robo just shits all over it and the swording doesn't compare to Sairento at all when you can't jump/wallrun/slide while slicing baddies up. The big upcoming feature they're promoting is PVP but...I can only assume everyone will be teleporting?

iceaim posted:Raw Data is pretty drat polished and I don't personally agree that Robo Recall shits all over it. I think both games are amazing and Raw Data has the advantage of having both coop and pvp multiplayer while Robo Recall is a bit more polished due to Facebook money and has some very cool mechanics of its own. Right on, although I'll say in these dark ages of VR I don't really care about polish at all, I just care about what I can do in the engine. Robo sounds and looks nice but it's the creative comboing and the interaction with the enemies that keeps me coming back. I just played some more Raw Data and deflecting bolts back with the sword was cool. What else is there? And do you know if they're going to add free locomotion?

Something highly skill-based with pseudo-random content and intricate mechanics This is like what I was saying about people playing Superhot like a Videogame and then someone else wondering if there are games that make you crouch. You're in VR, your body is tracked relatively well, and you can interact with enemies in enough ways that the (virtual) world is your oyster. Grab a bot. Dribble him for a little bit. Shoot his friends with your other hand in the style of a gangster, perhaps even with the gun upside down. Go crazy straw. When the gun's empty, slap him across the face a few times with it while inquiring about his mother, then throw the gun between your legs, bouncing it off the ground and into the bot sprinting in behind you to trip him. Rip the head and or arms off the bot you were dribbling and turn to babe ruth the poo poo out of the bot you just tripped before he hits the ground, then grab the gun that bounced off him (now reloaded) and send an angel a bullet to meet him in the outfield for good measure. Duck the hail of bullets inevitably headed for you (or bat them away disdainfully with your gun) while picking two them out of the air like shiny cherries and throw them across your chest at dudes directly to your sides while leaning backwards and drunken master punching the bot coming up from behind in the nuts, then grab his gun and or leg and Look into Bullets and More if you like Receiver and reloading guns manually, the dev responds and updates it like a crazy person and it has this weird little community churning out singleplayer content that really stretches the value of the game out (+ a barebones dungeon generator). When it was on sale for about $8 it was a steal imo. Also Gorn. Even janky VR is... better than a videogame. Right now the idea of "challenge" in VR is either going to be extremely narrow or asking to be cheesed. If you want to build and test a skill then try PVP (Pavlov, Onward) or let style be your guide!

Songbearer posted:One of the first things I did in Robo Recall was use the front handle on a bot to pull it down to its knees while I stood in front of it, pressed a gun to its head in a very deliberate fashion and pulled the trigger. It felt horribly brutal and incredibly satisfying as opposed to a canned animation, since you're the one responsible for all the events taking place. lmbo ok that''s brutal, going into the playbook. I think I was real lucky that I first played Gorn right after learning all the movesets for the characters in For Honor because it got me to break out of my initial mode and act out completely different fight styles and attitudes.

Tom Guycot posted:I decided to try out pavlov and I gotta say I'm really disappointed at how buggy and inconsistent the controls are. The game itself seems fun enough, but man I can't get the controls to act the same way twice and its really frustrating. Sometimes you let go of a gun and it falls, or gets thrown as it should, but then other times it sticks to you for no reason and you have to squeeze the grip again to drop it. The same goes for putting it back on your chest. Sometimes it works, sometimes it sticks there. Sometimes the trigger will just stay held down and the gun keeps firing. In the heat of a fight this becomes really aggravating when I want to grab my pistol quick and this time my rifle is stuck to my hand for example. I can't find any way to reliably reproduce any of this behavior it just seems to happen when it wants to happen. Yeah it's pretty lame how inaccessible all the multiplayer FPS games are for vr and it's weird that no big developers have just flooded steam with lovely Pavlov/Onward clones to drive competition. In your particular case it's mostly the Pavlov dev not having a rift and making controls for it as an afterthought. The trigger getting stuck held down is in fact a bug but that gets 'unstuck' really easy. The main issue for everything else is that the design thinking for the controls is for vive wands-- whose grip buttons are made for clicking, not holding down like the ones on oculus touch. So on rift you spawn in with the gun autoattached to your hand, which is confusing, and then if you drop it or sling it and pick it back up, then you have to grip it the whole time, which is confusing and dumb as hell and what we're stuck with. Then he has stuff in the menu like "legacy grip" with absolutely no explanation of what that is. I play this stupid game like every day. Dark ages of vr

With the rift you can actually just take an archery stance and it works great and is fun. If you anchor your dominant hand on your cheek, float your support hand out, and just point at stuff, you can get some really natural and stable shooting done without a stock. It's pretty fun particularly in Pavlov with the AK, where you can line up the rear sights just about perfect. You just make a habit of gluing the top of your hand to the bottom of your chin or cheek or whatever. Then with the other hand, once you grab the foregrip of the gun in-game, you can stretch it as far out as you want and the gun will stay gripped and point in the same direction. All you're doing is making a cheekweld with your hand instead of a rifle stock by pantomiming shooting a bow/making a pose

lol at the "Take My Hand" locomotion lmao at the whole thing Songbearer posted:Lemme know how that goes - I love the concept of Observer but I was in the same boat, holding out for VR. Apparently the devs love VR, so here's hoping for official support - I think it's a good candidate for it. I don't mind a little jankiness if the basic experience holds up so I'll grab it if you think it works out. I'll post in here if I get it anytime soon, probably gonna get my PC upgraded first. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-CYUJVYShU Looks pretty good. I really love that it's a hidden mode and not an advertised feature because this would be a great trend for developers-- just put the most basic VR support into every game already, please. You can add comfort options and slick presentation later for chrissakes. It's like once VR is mentioned, everyone freaks out and before you know it, a fully fleshed out and proven game design is reduced to a 2 hour "experience" where I wander around inside half a game wishing I could actually play it. I get it, most people are still behind the sim sickness curve, but man part of all this slow adoption is because VR games are so thin and shallow. Really hoping Fallout/Skyrim/Payday convince developers they're missing out on converting existing AAA games, and that Observer shows them you can just start with barebones functionality.

Surprise Giraffe posted:Also capacitive 'finger tracking' (binary and for three digits) is ok but hardly game changing. Na man it's about being in VR without having to be constantly holding on to something HerpicleOmnicron5 posted:Onward and Breach It are particularly great. Woah woah woah people play Breach It? Steamdb stats say 2 in the last 24 hrs and 24 all-time. What's the largest group you've seen and when?
