What snaps do you use on a snap back hat? I'm on the last dot, or second to last dot, depending on brand. Big heads man. Big heads. :-\

Zaphod42 posted:Yeah its a rail shooter. Which is really cool, I'm all over that idea, VR rail shooters. I'm also working on a light gun vr game but I was planning on having it be mostly in place with teleportation because I didn't want to deal with locomotion sickness issues. The devs are awesome. Seriously. You also don't feel like you're moving at all. I legit didn't notice it. Jim Silly-Balls posted:Oh, so it’s a rail shooter? Does it feel like a light gun game? Forced movement plus first person shooting really sounds like a light gun game and if so I’m buying it because I love me some light gun games Its a gallery shooter, set to a soundtrack. Its like time crisis without a pedal to duck/reload. you just, duck. and reload... lol Can't wait to push out more videos so people can see more. But yeah. Light gun game for sure.

I've put, too many hours into this game already and I've had zero issues. You honestly can walk around and move with the level going and not feel odd about it. They did a really amazing job there.

Shine posted:Onward (realisticish military shooter) is having a free weekend on Steam, and is half-price. Apparently they've improved the AI for the co-op/solo modes. I haven't messed with it since getting the Index since my gunstock was made for the Rift, but it was a fun game. Games actually good. Def check it out. Also which gunstock? Most companies have made thingies for the index.

Owlbear Camus posted:Onward is pretty fun and probably in my top hours played. I like the realistic gun handling and the presence of an active and pretty nontoxic PVE mode. Most you can drop in and out of for pistols and stuff. I personally don't enjoy mine (either actually have both mamuts), and its nto the product itself. I just dont like fiddling with things in VR like that. I end up never dropping back into it.

Zero VGS posted:Kinda whack that you can't play Steam VR games, I have a few like Stand Out that I don't also have in the Rift store. I wonder if anyone will make a workaround. Maybe a sideloaded build of Virtual Desktop or ALVR could leverage the Oculus Link instead of Wifi? Man if only someone said "Buying a Quest isnt a replacement for a desktop vr" in this thread. I wont be shocked if openVR titles don't run. Which is the big concern tbh. But whatever. Its not a replacement desktop headset. EbolaIvory fucked around with this message at 23:32 on Nov 1, 2019 |

The only folks I could find online that did the same thing used VRCover leather pads, but I used some cheaper (but seems to be nice quality) Vive pads off of Amazon. I always used the cheap amazon vive ones on my official rift vrcover velcro thing. They were just way more comfy.

Stuff like payday 2 was flat games that learned, most VR stuff isnt by flat studios with tons of game exp. Guess we'll see!

Ya know, Follow the art direction bud. Sorry but this whole "article" has tons of garbage in it that feels really whine city. Its not perfect, without a doubt. But come on.

Once you're no longer diving for your life every moment, you'll start dancing around and shooting to the beat. I promise. <3

Its not the PCVR you'd be used to if you played both, But if you're a full time quest user, its fine. Theres def a few spots where things "dipped" but it was never where I was disturbed playing, nor was it bad enough to miss a shot, or get hit while playing. So, Pretty good. Plays as well as other crap does to me.

Skyarb posted:Alright I'll be the idiot. I cannot get pistol whip to like lock in. I play beatsaber on expert+, and I am pretty good at it and even love it. But I for the life of me cannot get into the "beat" of pistol whip. Right now I'm just playing it as a john wick shooter but the rhythm aspect just isn't clicking with me. Am I the idiot reviewer of the last page? Listen to the music outside of the game, or put it on no fail and crank up the volume. When I first started playing, I had the same issue. It wasn't until I could chill through a level without thinking that I "got it" and all the bang bang shoot on time poo poo made sense. Don't think so hard about it and just listen to the perfect murder music. Then start lining up shots with the 1/8th notes when you get a feel for the songs. https://bsaber.com/pistol-whip-scoring-guide/

The Walrus posted:It's really not at all going to be the same, the levels are pretty intricately crafted to specifically fit the music. No like. I'm telling people to do it. DEVS first thing to me when we were talking stuff before launch was "Hey, just mute the game, slam in some music, itll work, it wont be perfect but you'll be shocked how much lines up". They are right. If the music you listen to isn't on some weird timing. Folks, Everythings to 1/8th noes. Again it aint perfect. But its something for now if you're REALLY bored of the OST already. Tho, I've done 30+ runs of death and still pop that song on google music regularly. >_> Zaphod42 posted:If you BPM match it first like a DJ maybe How about you try it a bit first instead of just yammering?

The Walrus posted:It's the equivalent of watching wizard of oz listening to dark side of the moon, you've got to trick yourself into thinking it works. The pacing of the levels are specifically suited to the songs, the songs don't keep the same intensity the whole way through and neither do the levels. Not to mention the visual pulses of the level that are also timed up to the song. And for me anyway, most of the fun is finding the most efficient way to shoot dudes on-beat as soon as they appear, and those appearances are, again, specifically matched to the song that's playing. Oh I'm not saying its perfect. Not even slightly. But the fact is, its something to do, it works, and the games not even 2 days old and people are whining about content. Its free easy content if you're really that bored suddenly and its FUN. Honestly drives me nuts that people are whining so hard about customs already. Get the gently caress over it folks, the games a day old. Tip posted:Being 1/8 notes is only like half the equation, it's more about matching BPMs. Which, actually, that would be a really simple thing they could implement. Let you play any level with a custom song, but you enter the BPM of the song (or have auto analysis to guess the BPM) and then just adjust the timing of events to the BPM. Aye, If you pick some double bass drum death metal its probably gonna be weird. Lets be real. IF you're not being a doofus with music selection though, Should still be a drat good time. Again this is about having more fun with the current game. Stop trying to argue away solutions. ITS ALSO A BRAND NEW GAME UNNGNGGGGG

Theres gun sound effects, someones already modded a skin into the game. So Give it a week or two before custom sounds are in? Honestly, The only thing NOT in the menu right now that would have to be UI edited to add is custom scenes. Gun customization, modifiers, all thats already in.
