>>400242770
Idea seems fun but it looks like shit. How is it?

was just playing Blade & Sorcery and the game kept crashing from hitting 8gb vram limit until i turned textures to medium.

>>400244351
bro your graphics...

>>400243682
Core mechanics; movement, shooting, destructible environment, are all good. Dev really only needs to iron his game modes out because there's not much to do. Improve AI, improve his random generated maps maybe, add some variations to his objectives, some actual doors and not these drywall barricade things would be great, etc

As for the graphics it's fine, stylized but not something I would call ugly, I would even go as far to say it's best this way with how emphasized destructible environment as a mechanic is in this game. Call that cope if you will though.

>>400242168
I used to think putting fumo in ItR is soulless because it clashes with everything ItR stands for, but recently I just realized ItR doesn't stand for much at all. It's become so dull bros...

>>400245872
I can't wait for large scale modding to be a thing. New maps, new enemies, new anomalies, oh fuck I'm cumming

>>400246162

Yep, ready for VR gaming in the exclusion zone

>H3 guns alright but tied to nogame
>RE4VR guns good but the operation too simplified

JUST LET ME FUCKING SHOOT GOOD AHHHHH

>>400247447
Pavlov has a killhouse, shooting range, and a zombies mode.

>>400247447
>He can't spend hours shooting plates in H3
You don't actually want to shoot good you liar!

>>400247447
there's literally nothing wrong with ItR gun mechanics

>>400247691
Never said there was, it's the trite survival sim tied to it all that bothers me.

>>400247691
say that again after your pistol locks back when you fire without a mag like lol lmao

>>400247668
H3 guns hold weird

>>400247858
it's a feature not a bug

Quest 2 ITR players
What angle do you have set as your in game hand angle?
Mine feels right and wrong at the same time

>>400250116
>arm width 50
>angle -13%
just try to naturally lift your arm forward to a 90 degree angle from your body then set your aiming reticle to that

>>400246357
I'm surpised there are no Katya mods already

Finally finished the final quest for Into the Radius, spent a lot of time on sidequests to make money and buy supplies because I willingly played on highest difficulty. Great game. Guess I gotta do an ironman playthrough now.
On a similar note, Paradox of Hope seems promising as a not-Metro 2033 VR title. Maybe I'm the retard for dropping 20 bucks on a glorified demo at the moment, but the foundations of a good VR game seem there. Shame it's being made by just 1 guy, it's probably going to take years before it's totally finished

>>400258245
The true sandbox experience for itr is to install the scavenger mod and never enter vanno in case you're looking for a post-game challenge.

>>400258245
>On a similar note, Paradox of Hope seems promising as a not-Metro 2033 VR title. Maybe I'm the retard for dropping 20 bucks on a glorified demo at the moment, but the foundations of a good VR game seem there.
The game was in my wishlist, so I thought about buying it yesterday.
The first red flag was "early access" bullshit, I've expected a full game.
Then I've decided to watch the trailer on the steam page, when I saw how he just walked close to the enemy while pointing his flashlight on it without any reaction whatsoever until he started shooting, I just un-wishlisted and closed the page.

>>400247447
Tell me about it. Why is it so hard to make a good single player vrfps?
>>400258245
>Maybe I'm the retard for dropping 20 bucks on a glorified demo
Maybe it'll be in the 1% of early access games that end up being good, but yes you are a retard. People need to stop supporting this whole buying incomplete games thing that's currently plaguing the market.

Oh SHIT!!!!!!! new Hideo Kojima + VR announced!!!!!
its literally just the entrance to his office but in VR....

>>400258681
>get hype for Into the Darkness
>thought it was vapourware for a while
>suddenly demo out of nowhere
>backpack, scavenging, melee, body physics, even the enemy AI and animations all exactly the same as Saints and Sinners but it's robots this time
>graphics look like absolute garbage
>immediately uninstall and forget about it
>now Paradox of Hope coming around
>same backpack and loot storage box in your home base as Saints and Sinners
I mean I'm not against the system but damn it's just kinda triggering that red flag in my head.

are there any good rpgs?
I am new to vr and it is really awesome but most of the games seem to be short or uninteresting.
VR porn is a gamechanger and chasing little loli girls in VR chat was also fun but there needs to be some great gaming experience.

>>400239706
this AI shit is getting too crazy for me

>>400247447
>>400247668
b-but Take & Hold in H3 is fun...

will you play half life 2 vr today?

>>400279560
what do you consider an rpg?
There are many roguelike and crafting rpgs, for questing and classical western rpg, Skyrim VR, modded you can also chase lolis

>>400267167
>>400280841
for u

>>400279560
no, I already finished it back in 2005, 2011, 2016 and 2021

>>400279560
yes even though I already finished it back in 2005, 2011, 2016 and 2021

>Requisition VR delayed again
Lmao but honestly it's for the best

>>400279560
yes i'm gonna play it right now

i am ill since the day i got my vr headset but i want to play. This sucks.
People should talk more about vr porn because with this VR will get way more users.

>>400304947
vrporn is for losers we dont need them

>>400304947
man I fucking love VR porn, helps me with coping with the fact that I am a massive loser

>>400304947
VR porn is shitty but I enjoy when the girl kisses me even though it makes me feel like even more of a loser afterwards.

>>400304947
in vr porn all the actors look like midgets. just fapping with extra steps too. gimmick is boring after five minutes, but try for yourself

After the Fall or Payday lobby tomorrow?

>>400315747
>>400316401
It looks like you're playing with highly increased enemy HP. Slugs should oneshot fragments.

>>400317094
Armoured fragments have the highest HP of any killable enemy and armour just gives a chance for bullets to ricochet and do no damage. Slugs used to be 100% AP but now they're not. Also side note I'm glad they returned the fragment's weakpoint to their heart.

>>400279560
you can add half life 2 VR to your steam account even if you don't own the original game, and it works

basically piracy but I'm playing it rn

>>400318737
lol wtf
ez money

>>400318737
But hl2 goes on sale for pennies very often, along with all the other old valve games, so why?

>>400318737
you've been able to download sven coop on steam since 2016 and play through the whole HL1 campaign for free even if you didn't own the game
I don't think they're too concerned

>>400307716
I think A wanted to host ATF lobby

Is HL2 VR inherit Alyx's gunhand?

>>400313480
I've been playing it today. I'd post some webms if I hadn't forgot to turn buffer record on. I had some struggles with the controls but the gunplay is good, using the crowbar against manhacks also felt way better than I was expecting. More than anything it's just nice to have a singleplayer VRFPS that has long sections of gameplay.

>>400314284
Same. I sat there for a moment like a retard when I got the revolver trying to flip the cylinder back or reload it until I realized I was pressing the wrong button.

>>400320478
Yes but it does have two handed weapons

>>400325386
two handed weapons were nice; HL2's weakest point was the gunplay and the SMG felt really mediocre, but in VR I love using it.

Is minigolf happening Saturday?
I don't know if I'll be able to make it but I need to make sure and wake up early if I can

>>400325828
Does it still have that gay horrible spread that the flat version of hl has or does it actually shoot straight this time?

>>400334661
>>400325828
I was just about to comment on that. It really helps that the SMG is accurate now. Inaccuracy cones already kinda suck in flat games but they feel extra shitty in VR.

Surprisingly, I actually like HL2VR, despite not really liking Alyx or HL2(flat).

Does HL2VR have movement acceleration tweaks on it for comfort? I tried doing HL1VR awhile back and shit was making me nauseous with the game's slow deceleration.

Wish there was a config to change the gun angle (it points upwards in neutral position) but hl2vr is pretty good so far

>>400335405
There's some momentum. It can probably be changed in a config file.
>>400336179
There is. Look in the options menu.

>>400336248
Oops, missed it - was looking in controls, not comfort, thanks

Did they update Alyx so that you lose ammo by ejecting magazines on to the floor, or is that an original feature for HL2VR?

>>400251085
DESPITE

The guns in Hl2vr feel weird, like the bullets are not shooting out of the correct gunend, but a little distance away. No one else seems to have this, is it just me?

>be in VRChat
>guy force clones my avatar
>i tell him that i'm honored he likes it that much
>and agree with him that it looks great

Was this a bad response?

What main/sidearm do you bring with you Into The Radius? I got to lvl3 so I can now ditch the glock and MP5, even though they treated me well.

>>400352242
Scar and M9 because DVL can't handle close range

>>400352242
Depends on what you're using it for. I keep my pistol as a cheap way of getting rid of unarmoured, light enemies. The OC33 has a huge mag and shoots the cheapest ammo in the game so I can get by carrying just one mag in the gun and occasionally using it to pick off spider spawns or fragments without biting into my primary's ammo or condition. If I want some more firepower I'll bring the glock and one spare mag for it though.

I'm already a manlet but playing HL2VR makes me feel like even more of a manlet

anyone else get black screens in OBS when trying to record HL2?

I'm a little surprised HL2VR is fully standalone. Doesn't require HL2 installed. Is this some feature of Steam where it's able to fetch files from another game you own, or did these guys have permission from Valve to pack it in?

uhh

>>400356017
>>400356134
You have to own the base game anyway, so it doesn't really matter if they include the files.

>>400356356
Why did that fag earlier say he didn't need HL2 then?

>>400357208
No idea. Someone who doesn't own the base game should check.

>>400357208
I said it didn't need HL2 *installed*.

>>400357352
I downloaded it earlier without having hl2, havent tried to play it though

>>400357454
Are you sure you just don't have it hidden?
Open the steam page of base game.

>>400357691
dont own it
pirated it years ago

>>400357819
sorry heres the game page, that listing in last post prob doesn't say if you own or not

>>400357819
Weird. Try launching.
>>400358036
There is an icon if you own it.

>>400357454
Wait there was a Gunz 2???

>>400358156
Launched it and it said failed to "initialize open vr".
Ill try again with headset connected

>>400358431
Yeah, they killed off gunz to launch that shit, It was pretty different that original gunz so it failed IIRC.
I couldnt even run it when it came out because no gaymen pc

>>400358553
ok yeah I dunno if theres something else I need to set up in steam to play it, but more than likely you DO need hl2

>>400359038
Im downloading "SteamvR" now to see if thats what I need to run it

>>400357208
you didn't need HL2, they must have fixed it because some nigger posted it on the steam forums

>>400367371
all the games on my account

Can someone tell me why proper lighting works completely arbitrarily? Given the same song and map, randomly turning on an OST background, disabling gradients in technicolor etc. would make a difference but I haven't figured out what the fuck is doing it

I use this song and map to test it and have not been able to reproduce getting the grid to flash colors on hit on this despite having done so in the below video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yf98-ZqnNoE
I've already re-recorded a ton for quality reasons and don't want to record more until this is fixed

>>400369227
I mean the flashing in general is either outright completely disabled or only works on the buildings in white, but nothing like the link
Also ignore the le jojo avatar, picked one at random

>>400355321
You can adjust the scale in the options.

>>400369227
>>400369339
Oh for fuck's sake I think I figured it out. Putting the environment on The First seems to fix it, though I've had BTS/Billie underlying before without issues

Still if there's a less stupid solution please let me know

>>400370704
And it stopped working again randomly. Wew

so i just tried the half life 2 VR mod up to ravenholm and it was the best time i had in VR since resident evil 4 VR

>>400380936
Got some webms anon? I did hear the HL2 VR mod official has been made real well.

>>400380936
I'm a pussy and it almost made me throw up 15 minutes in

sad

>>400381124
no i dont normally record my gameplay but i only meant to play the intro and ended up playing for several hours

>>400381124
Not that anonbut i recorded my play, will make webms later today

>>400381124
>>400380936
Pick this thread or the other, you dumbasses.

>>400381359
i posted in the other realized it was the VR chat one and then came here instead

>>400381403
I replied to both of your posts with full knowledge!

>>400314284

i was not able to get off the first ladder. i can climb but then i don't know what the fuck i am supposed to do, i am new to vr.

>>400380936
I only recently replayed it normally, shame.

>>400355321
It's the opposite for me. I tried making myself line up with 180 cm with this wall, but it makes everyone else tiny. If I make myself a similar height to the other humans, then the world is too large, so I think everyone is about 150 cm.

>Anton changes anything
>says he has to manually alter every class in the game to make it work
Does he not know about interfaces or inheritance? Imagine if he's actually spent 6 years coding like this.

>>400380936
it's fun as fuck honestly
feels better to play than a lot of earlier games built for vr specifically
i expected to go into it and go 'heh that's a neat gimmick' but i think i'm going to play through all of it again

>>400388359
I think it's more interesting because it doesn't have the usual handholding difficulty that assumes every player has never used VR before. You fight 6 enemies at once within the first hour on the railroad level in HL2, but that's end game difficulty in Alyx.

Too many discord advertisers ITT. Half ass 2 vr wont be played

>>400390016
why would anyone shill for a vr mod that's literally free
go play vr games cunt

>>400390016
>everyone who mentions a game in a positive light is either a shill or the devs themselves
Hello, 2011 /v/. Don't you have some gorilla munch memes to post?

Since the racing event is today, is anyone interested in a After the Fall lobby at 17:00 UTC?

if a game has crossbuy like contractors does that only work with quest and steam or is it just about the game account you make and you can use it anywhere with the game account?

i never even understood what that means because i don't fucking care about redshit you nigger

so are there any actually good games in vr? yes i have read the op.

so is it just alyx, pretty much? everything else listed is old&shit.

pretty much the one game(besides alyx and valve's lab) that i like in vr was moss, which is not really even vr, it's just the cute mouse. trying to install moss 2 right now. i bought a headset like 3 years ago or whatever, and i never played anything besides alyx and vrchat, more or less.

on iggames there are shitton of vr games but they all look like shit. is that it?

>>>/r/eddit

>>400405880
my boy i've been on this site before moot introduced captcha to deal with anonbombs. see yourself out.

>>400405570
haven't played alyx but I'm going to be playing pic rel for the foreseeable future.
gonna build myself a 3060 ti to get 150% res + 90 fps + high settings.

>>400406375
i pirated it once and it was really shit. if you're hoping for something like stalker it doesn't compare - atmosphere, gameplay, soul, all sucks. yes i would love actual stalker experience in vr. into the radius is not it.

does anyone know how to pirate an android game for oculus quest on wmr? i tried revive but it wants a .exe. the game is in .apk. is there a way?

>>400390016
It's in public beta. If you think something is missing, tell the devs.

>>400405570
If you somehow don't like anything else, there's many good mods for other games. Have you at least taken a look at the top VR games on steam and read reviews to see if they're for you?
>>400406772
Did you pirate the one before the big update?

You can't do that, unless someone makes a quest emulator.

is there a game like halo infinite or botw in vr? besides alyx.

something with decent gameplay, some depth, some story.like a real videogame, you know?

>>400407714
no, but i pirated a ton of games and they were all shit. even the ones that i played through, it's mostly just walking simulators in one form or another.

alyx on the other hand had an interactive world, cool combat, story... all that should be in a videogame.
>Did you pirate the one before the big update?
i think i pirated after an update, but the game was still shit. i mean stalker had factions, lore, gunplay, stealth. radius is just another walking simulator and graphics were bad.

i also played boneworks and that didn't have much story, and i couldn't progress after encountering headcrabs. and i felt nauseous. though the interactivity was quite cool, if there was also a game there.

also i played walking dead vr, another big one, and it just had too much shit dumped on me in tutorial, i couldn't even remember how to do anything there. plus grapics were unappealing and the start of the game was jarring. if they started it like the walking dead adventure games and interface was simpler it could've been cool.

>>400407714
the newest pirated itr version is the 2.0beta present edition. Its really shit

>>400408358
update coping is really getting tiresome. here's the latest version gameplay https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BuGNbewzkKY

it looks exactly like it did when i played. it's still an anemic walking simulator with bad graphics and black blob enemies.

i can understand the desire to play stalker in vr, but this is not it.

>>400408659
I finished the game in the cracked version and later bought it on sales. The differences in gun mechanics, landscape, level design, survival mechanics, customization and enemy AI are night and day. The cracked version is a fucking beta, though I miss the metal tower on the road map, that wooden shit doesnt do it

>>400408945
>this turd was polished, you should try it dude
it's not even a proper game, please stop shilling for it just because you wanted to like it.

>>400409089
I like it, its a good game, sunk 50 hours in it. If you don't like the genre, then don't buy it, but don't judge it based on a beta dev version

stop replying to the alyx schizo. he will go away on his own

>>400410016
what kind of a cuck sits in a dead thread and then gets mad when someone mentiones one good game? does alyx make you feel bad because there wasn't anything else released?

>>400410016
Its just Gabe. Everybody waits for him to go away since 1996, I doubt its going to happen anytime soon

found a playlist with a whole bunch of vr games.

>>400407719

that is my problem with VR, the experience is awesome but there are so few games worth playing .
I wish for some good RPGs. For Skyrim VR i will wait for a better GPU so i can play it modded.
There are incredible possibilities for VR games, but i guess the market is not big enough.

ATF in 1 hour and 10 minutes at 17:00 UTC if anyone is interested, steam group for VC.

>>400411035
skyrim in vr is pretty bad actually, same as any other game with vr tacked on.

and why would you replay skyrim anyways, after playing it vanilla and with requem.

>>400411035
i don't even know about vr, take games like halo or botw, since i mentioned them. would they be better in vr? probably not.

alyx is so well done, as an experience, and meanwhile the best vr games are basically "this non-vr game but in vr".

moss vr was good too because it's a game, even though its vr is quite limited.

>>400411232
i never liked skyrim but VR is something else.

>>400411520
Halo would be better in VR than playing on a console in my opinion. FPS with stick aiming sucks huge balls whereas VRFPS feels great.

>>400413295
halo wouldn't be nearly as dynamic. i mean alyx is basically a cover shooter, and when you start to teleport around it breaks immersion.

>>400407903
>alyx
>interactive world
>cool combat

nigger the fuck kind of shit are you on
alyx is pretty but the world is just an empty backdrop with zero gameplay relevant interaction and the combat pace has been slowed to a crawl and the ai has been gutted to retard levels to literally make it "baby's first vr shooter"

>>400413723
That's Valve being retards. I get they want it to be accessible for people whose first headset was the Index and they've never played anything, but they should have included a non-babby mode too.

>>400413723
Alyx is like that by design, not because VR can't do better. We have Contractors to show us that Halo movement and weapons work. We now have HL2 VR mod to show us that traditional FPS campaigns work.

>>400409089
>it's not even a proper game
How is it not a proper game?
It has a story, a beginning and an end, gameplay mechanics and enemies, progression and difficulty
Not liking it is fine, but I'm honestly confused why do you think it's not a proper game

>>400408659
>walking simulator
Yeah, that's not what that means.

>>400413771
>>400413871
>>400413927
to me alyx was a dynamic as i could take. and i played touhou. if you're forced to navigate and shoot the game becomes overwhelming in vr, not because it's difficult, but because your irl body position interferes with movement. you can suppress this when you're concentrating on walking, not when you're trying to manoeuvrer. and teleportation breaks immersion.
>b-but i'm super hardcore! i can take it!
you must be a child prodigy. your mommy proud of you? can you take dick also?
>>400414616
that's exactly what it is though. take stalker - you have multiple mechanics there(artefacts, enemy groups, shooting, stealth, mutants, anomaly navigation, blowouts, plot, exploartion). in radius you walk around and shoot at black shit. that's it. the systems in the game just make interface less convenient because "muh realism". but you won't understand anyways.

>>400415515
There were anomalies in the alpha 4 years ago, so I don't know what game you're playing.

>>400413927
contractors trailer plainly shows it to be a cover shooter.
>>400414550
>story
it doesn't even have any characters, please stop pretending like there is shit there.
>why do you think it's not a proper game
because it's not. without vr it would have mostly negative reviews from the 5 people that played it for an hour and refunded. i don't like larps, and you're larping a video game.

>>400415515
>artefacts, enemy groups, shooting, stealth, mutants, anomaly navigation, blowouts, plot, exploartion
ITR has everything of those except blowouts

>>400416006
>plot doesn't exist unless it's explained to me like a 5 years old by an npc
Not surprising from a touhoufag

>>400416006
>contractors trailer plainly shows it to be a cover shooter
It's a multiplayer game. You genuinely seem to have minor brain damage.

>>400415748
you are confusing a copycat "anomaly" and the actual anomalies in stalker which were their own system, and a part of the world. you don't have the taste to appraise games, it would seem.

>>400416006
Don't talk about shit you know nothing about.

>>400416171
why do you guys even need vr headsets, when you're playing pretend in your mind?

this reminds me of dwarf fortress fags that would make up elaborate stories that aren't possible within df's gameplay, and spam said stories as the proof of how awesome dwarf fortress is.

Jesus christ guys, stop replying to the troll/guy with really shit taste.

>>400416437
You don't have a headset, do you? You're some retard from /v/ who has come here to insist others stop liking things and can't even do basic research on the topic.

dude
this HL2 is so fun, I finished it at least twice, but it feels like a different game

>>400416260
this gameplay clip is laughable. slow, boring, basically on-rail shooter. low quality - looks like a cheap unity game. here, as a video, deprived of the headset gimmick, it looks like shit.

compare that to halo infinite gameplay where you zoom around, steal vehicles, blow shit up, enemies are running around frantically.

PICK UP THAT CAN

ATF in 6 minutes get in steam group for vc

>>400416532
i have a headset. i shared 2 vr games that i actually liked in the first post.

you people, instead of telling me about any good games that you know, are just seething about alyx and trying to prove that your favourite vr game that eveyone knows about doesn't suck ass.

you know, i expected something like "oh, there's this obscure battletech game" or "that vr game was really immersive, i liked the story a lot". instead you're coping about shitty clones of better non-vr games.

>>400416968
omw!

>>400416734
>holds alyx up as the golden standard for vr games
>calls the clip "slow, boring, basically on-rail shooter"
yeah, nah, you're full of shit - alys is literally a "slow, boring, basically on-rail shooter"

Learning to reload again is a pain; please use existing games reloading thanks

>>400416190
What game did you play? You didn't play into the radius

>>400417226
The reloading is the same as Pavlov, but you take the magazines from your shoulder and there's no slide release.

>>400417164
alyx is basically a cover shooter, as i've said, but it has more to it. it has the story, the world, the high quality grafics, the controls are intuitive, the enemies are cool.

that's the fucking point i'm trying to make - it's a video game.

boneworks might have a super advanced reloading system or whatever, but it's not really a game.

>>400417375
Yeah there's nothing wrong with it, just I have to learn muscle memory for it

Hitting manhacks is fun though

>>400417290
anon, can you fuck off with your radius already? it looks like shit, it played like shit, i didn't like it. i pirated like 40 vr games and radius immediately felt like one of the crappy ones.

>>400417694
You got filtered pretty hard anon

>>400417829
if it was as good as you say there would be a radius general. it's shit, and any vidyagayman can see that from like 5 seconds of gameplay.

>>400417087
Try VTOL or Vox Machinae.

>>400418023
That's a terrible argument for a game that you played an outdated version of and are then complaining that it sucks.

>>400418071
these aren't real games and i'm not gonna play them.

can you comprehend that "warthunder, but shit, but IT'S IN VR!!111" isn't a compelling game? same with vox - literally any battletech game is better. i don't care about "VR CONTROLS OMG", i want a good game.

google moss vr, to see a real vr game that's not an AAA. i really liked moss, because it's a game, it's simple, short, doesn't have much vr in it, but at least it's a fucking game.
>>400418149
it's not an argument, i played my share of videogames(instead of getting a life) and i can appraise videogames.

>>400418827
>i don't care about "VR CONTROLS OMG"
You should probably just get rid of your headset then, as you don't understand the point of it at all.

>>400419175
gimmicky controls isn't the point of vr, you absolute dunce.

>>400418827
>>400419330
You have entered the thread you don't like, for a peripheral you own that you don't enjoy, why? We're not hurting for free bumps right now, try later where there isn't a recent VR release.
I don't like HL2 and I don't like HL2VR, but I don't like YOU even more than those combined

>>400419371
>You have entered the thread you don't like, for a peripheral you own that you don't enjoy
don't forget that i am now also mad. how could this have happened to me?

i wanted to inquire about any new vr games that could've come out, but it's just this into the radius fag here and a few alyx-haters.

>>400419845
If your only goal in VR is to have regular games be woah 3D dude, VorpX is the way for you. It's mostly roomscale enthusiasts in here, or as you call them, gimmick control enjoyers.
ItR has amazing gun handling but everything else falls off quickly if you're not into it, yeah.

>>400419330
Aiming and reloading your gun instead of moving a reticle with your mouse and pressing R to watch an animation is a gimmick?

>>400420151
my goal is to experience an amazing immersive world, like in alyx.

or in moss, where you invest into the cute virtual mouse and get immersed into the world.

Fun is a gimmick

>>400420158
on its own- unironically yes

>>400420305
Moss is just a middling 3D platformer with a tacked on VR gimmick. Outta here.

>>400420445
Yeah, you don't get it at all. You seem to experience video games on a completely visual level with the input you're providing because essentially irrelevant. You are the antithesis of the target audience for VR.

>>400418827
>moss vr
Literally a flash tier puzzle game, VR adds to it even less than any of the games you call "not real"

>>400418827
have you tried Subnautica in VR

>VorpX still can't be hacked
It costs an arm and a leg here, how do I cope

>>400420834
let's not pretend that vr provides a more precise controls than a keyboard.
>>400421269
no, pol told me that it was made by trannies or niggers or something to the extent.

frankly, the game doesn't look interesting. it's yet another minecraft. i played minecraft in vr and it was really tedious.
>>400420562
>>400421115
it may be flash tier, but at least it's a game.

>>400422098
Trolling outside of /b/ is against the rules /v/tard, go away no one likes you

>>400422679

>>400422098
>i played minecraft in vr and it was really tedious.
are you fat?

>>400416449
There is nothing else to do

>>400422897
Play HL2 vr!

>>400422893
y-you're fat!
>>400422812
no, i just don't like minecraft, especially in vr. gameplay loop of walking around collecting rubbish is really boring.

>>400422812
a game that i would really like would be something like battletech/evange-lion shooter. where you get into the robot, you shoot at another robot, everything's shaking, then you get out of the robot and run around like in alyx, and there's some sort of a plot going on.

it would be too expensive to produce for vr though.

>>400418023
You're new here, so you wouldn't know this, but this general is basically into the radius general with a bit of pavlov, vtol and the rare new game.

>>400423687
-t. radius/pavlov/vtol fag. currently performing a coup

>>400423284
I puked on the eye pieces in my headset during this part

another cool vr game concept would be like last of ass, but mixed with all the waifu simulators. you could interact with the loli and care for her in between stealth/shooter sections.

>>400423993
VR legs needed...

>>400423284
You miss out on one of the better combat segments by doing this. Playing through again in VR made me appreciate how good the pacing is in the HL2 campaign.

ooouuhhh I'm gonna play vr games

>>400425250
Yeah I know, just I played that sequence like 200 times

>>400422098
>let's not pretend that vr provides a more precise controls than a keyboard.
The fact you think it's about 'precision' shows you're so clueless it's unreal.

gg and thanks for joining!

FBT actually useful for anything outside of vrc?

>>400425974
now with proper picture

>>400426076
Not really. You can record yourself in third person with an avatar in many games, use the foot trackers for walking-in-place locomotion, or kick in Blade and Sorcery. That's about it.

>>400426076
kicking around eggs and other haulables in Deep Rock Galactic vr mod and using your legs in Blade & Sorcery with a mod

>>400426389
You don't need a mod to kick in B&S. It's one of the very few games with native FBT.

>>400425670
>i WANT shitty controls because it's uuuuggh... it's more pro this way! i'm a real gaymen unlike you!

>>400426184
thanks for the host!
shame about the glitchy gfx settings but hopefully i can find a fix

>>400426621
The most precise controls are to pre-program input for the game. Explain to me why you don't do this.

>>400426796
if you don't even want to interact with the game but just want to watch cool stuff why even play games? go watch a movie or something

>>400426943
I like motion controls in VR because if you don't even want to interact with the game but just want to watch cool stuff why even play games? Go watch a movie or something.

>>400426076
motion capture, blade and sorcery, dragon fist, jet island

>>400426621
Again, how is pressing 'R' to watch a reload animation better control of the game than performing the reload yourself?

>>400426796
you fundamentally don't understand gameplay. someone like you coded in the stupid fucking backpack into every vr game. do you know why backpack is fucking dumb? because people don't actually want to waste time with this "realistic" shit. no one wants a game where you have to walk somewhere for 30 mins irl, store your shit in a box n your garage, and no one wants a game where you manually put shit into backpack.

reloads in vr are cool because they're a part of combat. backpack isn't. it's just a thing to store loot in for fast access, because managing your shit is boring and tedious. anyone who moved house understands that.

observe how in morrowind people disliked the pauseable inventory, because you could just stop time and drink potions amidst combat, breaking said combat, but no one wanted realistic backpack interactions in stalker, since in stalker it was hard to access items in combat as it was.

>>400427682
I want that, though. The game would be a lot worse for me if it were a menu or something.

>>400427682
Skill issue. Unironically; a 3d backpack is a skill you have not developed from years of flatshit. You are unskilled.

>>400426621
It's the other way around, m&kb is better for competitive gameplay while VR is for comfy immersion

>>400422812
n-word used

>>400429507
The competitive skill ceiling is higher for VR controls too.

>>400427682

>>400427682
>nobody wants this

>>400429697
VR depends too much on physical ability and genetics while m&kb or controller is an even ground.

>>400441418
>even ground
>tfw the other team snorts 1kg adderall before your match

>>400441418
Mouse aiming is incredibly dependent on genetics.

>>400421770
why do you even want it?
you know its 'just' 3d shit right? not actual vr

>>400422542
After that I would stand uncomfortably close to every npc during their dialogue.

modding skyrim vr is pain in the ass. i use the fus ro dah modpack with wabberjack and need to click "download" for 280 mods. I don't even know if i need all this mods but everyone agress that unmodded skyrim sucks ass.

What is the difference between these?

>>400447398
one has dlc
one doesnt?

>>400418827
>and i can appraise videogames
>calling VTOL shit
Well you clearly can't.
At best, you have the appraisal ability of a filthy casual.
>>400422098
>let's not pretend that vr provides a more precise controls than a keyboard.
And let's not pretend that a mouse works better in a 3D environment without being clunky af.
It was designed for 2D manipulation, your desktop is a 2D display, but your VR headset is a 3D display, which inherently makes the mouse unusable unless you glue it to a 2D surface.

>>400427682
I get it, you don't like when game has items, because managing items is boring and tedious for you.
You must realy hate RPGs or basically any game that isn't a linear shooter I guess, which is fine....I surely hope you're not implying that having a traditional menu-based inventory system is better than the VR backpack, because that would be fucking retarded, right?
Because menu-based inventory system in VR is even more time-consuming and tedious than the backpack.
The backpack is pretty much the easiest way you can currently store and retrieve a multitude of items in VR that aren't in a holster, there really aren't any better alternatives.

If anything VR games are missing obvious VR interactivity. Why is the menu in Pavlov on an awkward chord that activates constantly instead of something like a tablet you can retrieve from your lower back?

>>400444801
the easiest way to mod skyrim vr imo is getting vortex, skser vr, enb, then go to nexus order all mody by unique downloads and get the first two pages with modmanager download

weeeeeeeeeeee

Oh yeah, what are some fucking fast games? I tried Carve Snowboarding, that was way too slow, it doesn't feel like you're fast in VTOL VR, anything else I'm missing? I want to feel something.

>>400472868
Jet Island is fun
The scale of the map ironically makes it feel a bit slower when you end up flying through the air for 10-20 seconds at a time but it's got some really fun movement

i'm falling asleep..

>>400485884

>>400418827
While a lot of what this guy has said in this thread is thoroughly retarded I do agree with his general point that VR is lacking more fleshed out proper games.
VR has a problem where most of the games are essentially tech demos and/or sim sandboxes, I do enjoy some of them a lot like VTOL but I wish we would get more proper games like Alyx, though I would say Boneworks is one of those even if the story telling is extremely hands off.
It's not like VR is incapable of having these types of games it's just a result of the small and inexperienced dev teams that we have working on VR right now. We'll get bigger and better dev teams eventually but right now they are shifting to Quest where they are limited by the hardware.
My hope is that Quest's popularity will have people trickle into PCVR kinda like we had with consoles to PC.

A lot of people here prefer these empty tech demo type games, some people have hundreds of hours in H3 which I can't fucking understand but it does make sense that current VR would attract these people (autists), if you like those types 'games' VR is the place to be.

I get how people can enjoy ITR but it's still so far from what would really make a proper game for me.
My ideal VR game is still a high quality open world (doesn't have to be huge) with lots of interesting VR interactions (VR controlled: gathering, smiting, crafting, climbing, shooting, melee, vehicles). Interesting NPCs, side content like rolling physical dice at the inn, gambling with gold that you actually have to pull out of your pouch and a solid story to tie it all together.
IT'S KINGDOM COME VR. PLEASE GOD MAKE IT REAL, I BEG YOU.

>>400472868
Seconding Jet Island, Redout is also fast as fuck.

storytelling is for people that can't read

>>400499634
People praise the shit out of Blade and Sorcery or Boneworks and I just cannot care because they're tech demos. They're like the framework you build an actual game around. The physics and the like are legitimately impressive, but there's not much else.

>>400472868
Ballistic NG if you want Wip3out in vr with even faithful renditions of the graphics and tracks. Distance also good if you don't mind doing fucking flips and shit in your car.

Playing HL2VR, pretty good though i did just slowly die after not being able to jump out of the water in that area where the combine throw barrels down at you.

>>400509549
I had the same problem, jumping out of water is pain

>>400509549
Also the pistol sucks, it's exactly the same as it was but in vr where you put effort into aiming and reloading it especially feels like a wet noodle.

>>400513298
They're just making sure to be faithful to the source material.
HL2 without a shitty pistol just isn't HL2 anymore.

>>400509549

and i can't get off the first ladder on top, i fall down. is this first ladder in the game a retard filter?

>>400514914
It's kind of screwy, maybe on the index some of this stuff just werks. There's a setting that i think makes it so you only need to run into it like you would in non-vr.

>>400516278
>>400514914
can confirm it just kinda werks on index
there's different settings for climbing ladders, i've been using the immersive climbing one and i just get teleported to the intended spot after letting go at the top of the ladder, HL:A-style

I love how the SMG is actually useful now.

I just have the pico 3 since a few days and the first hours were a blast. There are not many good games but the experience is something special. Even VR chat can be interesting.
You also need to try VR porn.

Skyrim VR needs to get modded to be fun, get wabberjack and download FUS.

>>400521041
VR is still a bit lacking in games but Skyrim VR is a lot of fun. You have to mod it to be playable though.

>>400521041
got my MQ2 five weeks ago and have been playing pic rel. about to build a new PC to get better res and graphics but nvidia is announcing 40xx series in 2 days so I'm hesitating
so yes it's very worth it for me. also VR porn is in another class of its own.

>>400520034
Township tale has the problem of being entirely player driven. If you get someone experienced to tutor you through the world and mechanics, it's fucking amazing. If you're just trying to figure it out and explore yourself, it's tedious. The crafting mechanics are top notch and it makes full use of vr with pretty much every aspect but there's just nothing in it.

>>400423649
Mechwarrior 5?

Found out you can balance an object on something you're holding until the physics settle and it freezes in place in mid air. Didn't really think much of it but then saw pic related and realised you can make your own racks out of bullets and shelves out of their boxes.

>>400524416
You can also do this to turn flashlights into spotlights.

i want to play more hl2vr but my legs are already hurting from standing aorund all day in the last few days
help

>>400527253
I played beat-saber and eleven table tennis for hours yesterday and was fine but 90 minutes of standing still in hl2vr and my legs hurt.

>>400527253
>>400527812
sitting and standing bad, laying down and walking/running good

>>400527253
Become white and play simracing games instead.

>>400530091
>>400527253
>>400527812
Standing is fine as long as you move a little. In VR you should be stepping and crouching more than enough. Most people just find standing excessively difficult because they've been trained to sit down 90% of the day. I started using a standing desk years ago and only sit down to drive and eat. I find sitting down for too long uncomfortable at this point.

some issues im having with hl2vr. the rotate-right stick position on my right hand barely registers and it's really souring the experience. i hope this is a deadzone issue and not the actual controller. i'm already using an RMA controller. is there a community binding for index chads we're using?

second thing is when i grab clips of ammo over my shoulder they straight up disappear. i'm talking like 1 in 8 tries i can actually spawn a new clip of ammo to shove into the gun. i finally realized this in some area where your hands have shadows. when i look down i realized reaching over my shoulder the new clip was spawning and immediately disappearing. this made the manual reloading aspect of the game anti-fun for me. the auto-reload feature works perfectly and i think i'll prefer to stick to that now.

>>400533951
This sounds like something is bugged. Have you verified the files? I don't use artificial turning, but I've never had problems grabbing magazines.

VR demo idea: a simulator for what it would be like if your eyeballs fell out, but they could still see OK dangling out

Idea 2: metal gear solid 5 VR mod. Note, really easy, snake is blind in 1 eye so for realism you only render 1 eye

>>400533951
very well could be the controller itself. i had heard the joystick switches to tend to die after a while, which is very fucked up for expensive controllers, thanks valve.

the ammo over the shoulder thing has been really gaslighting me. i was thinking there's no way they shipped this when the deadzone to grab ammo this small and unreliable.

also i attached that image to my prev post but forgot to explain that the phys gun disappeared upon loading ravenholm. i had to spawn myself a new one.

uhh bros my right controller is making clicking sounds when I shake it

I'm thinking of grabbing quest 2 for some comfy wireless afternoon gaming. Does meta account require personal information, scanning ID etc?

>>400555426
>Does meta account require personal information, scanning ID etc?
nah just use fb account to login in quest 2 one time then you're done.

>>400556918
but that does require personal info lol

>>400555426
Not sure about Meta but back then Facebook required a legitimate account and a phone. And I think a credit card for dev account (which is necessary for side loading) and, well, buying I guess

>>400557193
I guess yeah. I just use my old FB account that I don't even use anymore. like the last time I logged in was yeaaars ago

>>400521041
People have different levels of engagement with it, but for me it definitely was. It's the first technology advancement in gaming that has excited me in over a decade. I wish there were more games and hopefully we'll get more fleshed out shit in the future.

>>400521041
While I still regularly use my headset after 5 years, in my experience about 90% of people do not really like VR so the odds are against you.

speaking of skyrim I have never played it and had to mindset to wait on playing it as overtime mods/updates would only improve it. Is it worth it to play it in vr first time?

>>400570829
i don't think i would want to play skyrim in vr for a first-ever playthrough, vanilla is awful and even modded still feels janky
it's still skyrim though so if that's your jam you can't go too far wrong

Is nausea in VR a real thing? I only ever tried my Index with good hardware so I just assumed it was a framerate thing, but tried my friend's OG Oculus on his awful hardware and while the choppy framerate was annoying as hell, it didn't make me sick.

>>400576457
Yeah of course it's a real thing, did you think people were just making up getting motion sick due to vr?

for those that are playing hl2 vr if you didn't already you should probably edit this file. i changed the resolution and refresh rate to match the index. add -tickrate and your headset refresh rate, otherwise it defaults to 720@60. this lightens the physics issues a bit, and it runs smoother of course.

SET params=-w 1600 -h 1400 -tickrate 144 -novid -condebug -windowed -high -refresh 0 -noasserts -hushasserts -dxlevel 98 -steam -game hlvr

>>400577736
tho ive just realized that changing the resolution only changes the size of the desktop window. shouldn't have any effect on the render resolution. changing refresh rate definitely had effect however.

>>400576457
Affects some people but not others.

>>400576457
I got it bad at first but I had minimum specs for VR so even when hitting max frames the inconsistent frametimes were still making me sick. Now I'm can tolerate some choppiness.

>>400576457
Yes, of course, it is. Most people get it or are hyper sensitive, but a handful of people have little to no VR sickness from day 1. I had a friend who had zero issues with it, but meanwhile I knew another person that took over 2 weeks of gradually getting used to VR.

>>400555426

pico 4, in 4-5 days is an annoucement regarding price etc. the pro version will be more expensive but the other one should be under 1000.

>play vail
>get instaheadshotted every time
I'm so bad it maks me cri

>>400576457
I get nausea/motion sick from normal flat gaming

>>400576457
for me it's generally framerate drops, even in flat games if the framerate is all over the place it makes me sick after a while.
Only got sick in VR once in neos tho.

>>400524895
That doesn't work any more because flashlights turn off when you leave the area.

I've installed FUS pack for Skyrim VR. Anyone with it could tell me what else could be added?

>>400576457
Its very real. If you want to experience it as a gamer, you need to get a game that has very bad inconsistent and fast movement. Nausea happens when the brains movement input and the actual movement doesnt match, gamers have less chance to get vr sickness because their brains expect movement when a button or a stick is pressed

How does this game work so well in VR?

https://streamable.com/uvtt1g

>>400392620
It's not quite 100%.

>>400597143
It just works.
The real answer is that even in flatscreen the crowbar seemed weightless with how fast the swings are, so the handling in vr doesn't seem off and manhacks are perfect for giving player feedback for hits consider they float

>>400598715
It just astounds me that an almost 20 year old physics system designed for a flatgame translates better to VR than Valve's actual attempt to make a VR game.

Can I mod the NPCs to something else in HL2VR?

Micro-LEDs for VR look like a fucked prospect.

>the autistic switching
Figure once you get far enough, you just stop giving a damn about pistol caliber and start throwing P+ rounds in there

I skipped the first plane since didn't like it much and have just been doing F26B missions in VTOL, but are there even F45-A missions that aren't workshop? I can't see them putting a plane in without a basic campaign especially years later. Also what's the proper usage of flares/chaff? I just deal with missiles either through evasion (nosediving behind cover, dodging last second and more advanced evasion is beyond me) or AIM-T them which usually results in one I wasn't even aware of hitting me a second later

tldr does F-45A have missions outside of workshop/how use flares/chaff right

>>400615038
Is this ITR and if so how dead is it? If not, wut game. I need a not Pavlov shooter that doesn't have gameboy color-tier physics

>>400576457
a friend of mine can't even play flat 3d exploration games without getting sick so yes it's real

>>400615038
I had $40k at the end of my playthough. after awhile you just put P+ on everything

>>400621089
ItR is a single player game akin to fallout/stalker

>>400621749
>I had $40k at the end of my playthough
Oh yeah? Well I have 1k because I play ironman with selling value of all items much, much lower compared to normal. It's fucking torture with the amount of planning and equipment management I have to do just to turn a profit. All difficulty modifiers except repair frequency and items lost upon death are turned all the way up. I have no idea why I'm doing this to myself but it's kinda fun I guess, I like losing hairs over frustration because it took me 1 FMJ more to kill that little shit than I was willing to spend.

any of you niggas fat?

I'm a fat and was wondering how long you can play VR games standing up comfortably

>>400625570
I only play stuff I can sit down and play

>>400625570
Depends, standing almost completely still and having some amount of lower body activity (like Blade and Sorcery for example) are two different things. The former is torture for anyone, fat or not.

>>400625570
Beat saber? Going to be dead in an hour
Pavlov? Can go all day

>>400625570
After 1 hour gets uncomfortable for me in games with little movement.
3 hours when I'm moving in the playspace, spinning, crouching etc.

It's actually kinda immersive to finish exploring a few dungeons then need to sit down IRL for a drink/snack while at the tavern or around a campfire.

>>400625570
>>400628598
lardass checking in to 2nd this
standing totally still in anything kills me pretty quick, but i can do shit like headbang and dance in vrc for 5-6hrs straight otherwise

>>400628598
I bought canned pineapple to eat after clearing a section in Into the Radius. Sitting on top of the bridge, watching the BTR roll around, eating pineapple and playing guitar.
Pure kino.

>>400626357
>Beat saber? Going to be dead in an hour
Not fat but out of exercise for years for reasons, I can do really well after only getting back into it the last month and my shoulders give out FAR before stamina now

>>400576457
The vast majority of people get it at first. The more you play the more your brain adjusts to the disconnect between sight and balance; like getting your sea legs.

>>400597143
Great base game + actual care into the VR mod

>>400625570
not a fatass but you're not supposed to stand in place for long periods of time
either walk/pace around in place or stand like pic rel so most of the weight is supported by the calve muscles instead of the bones in your back heels

>>400635645
also get floor pads. it helps

ooouuuh i'm having fun

BallisticsNG uses a controller... any of the wipeout clones use the motion controls?

>>400625570
Yes, my problem isn't with fucking exercising or doing effort by standing, but reaching out to guns that are inside my belly, that one fucks me up real good.

>>400425008
section was rough for me too. first time i had to stop playing a vr game out of fear of puking

>>400643392
>but reaching out to guns that are inside my belly
wat

>>400646024
he's fat

>>400646240
Is his belly so big it consumed his fucking hips like on those reality shows

>>400647626
Honestly I can't even begin to imagine how spherical someone needs to be to not reach the chest holsters in vr games. Pretty sure contractors has a chest offset setting but I haven't played that game in ages.

>>400639601
>caught the brick after it bounced off it's head before it fell on the ground to launch it again

Are shotguns basically useless in ITR unless you have nothing else?
And what's a good way of making money, is it just waiting until the tide resets everything and going around all the rifts and anomalies for artifacts?

>>400652326
Try the pump action shotgun with slugs.

>>400652326
Yes and yes. There's also a few grey crates that are not well defended so they should be part of the routine. There's one that spawns in the tower in the village, and one in the substation near the village->greenhouses map link that are both reasonably undefended. The greenhouses one is especially neat since it is a higher level crate.

PLUNK

Interestingly it's possible to reload significantly faster with the crossbow in VR.

>>400653773
Is the pump action really that much better than the hunting shotgun? An armoured enemy took 2 slugs at pointblank range and was fine so I'm kinda sceptical.
>>400653906
Is there a map somewhere online with all this on it? I kinda have a shit memory so it might be easier for me to have something loaded up in the steam browser.

>>400654294
>Is there a map somewhere online with all this on it?
The game is half about exploration bro

>>400654294
Best part about the pump is the bigger mag and easier reloading. I main the spas12 (upgraded to 12 round cap) and will take it to clear out the first three zones on the first day of tide then work backwards to loot. Wouldn't trust a shotgun in kolhoz but buckshot for unarmoured and slugs for armoured is all you need. Most enemies can be two-tapped with it. Keep yourself light, run in fast, shoot first, and leave a grenade for the stragglers.

>>400654339
I've been exploring and found several things, then promptly forgot where they were. I guess I should be using that marker artefact?
>>400654892
That does sound good, but I kinda prefer keeping stuff at a distance rather than charging in.

>>400588131
I'm not sure what that mod pack includes, but Ordinator+its VR patch are always fun. It and the rest of the Enairim mods give you a lot of build variety which can really change how you play. And of course the Vigilant+Glenmoril+Unslaad trilogy for probably the best Skyrim content mods.

i got motion sickness from the HL2 chase in the beginning. Now i even feel sick and begin to sweat when i slowly walk. Is HL2 worse than some other games regarding this?
What can i do to overcome motion sickness? I am new to vr, did not have much problems until now and the first steps in VR in general.
I also have a bad gpu, could this also be a reason?

>>400669393
> I am new to vr
Don't try to push through it, you fucking retard.
Stop immediately when you feel dizzy or you gonna make things A LOT worse, to the point of not being able to play VR at all.
Short bursts often, while gradually increasing the play sessions.
>I also have a bad gpu, could this also be a reason?
Check if you are reprojecting, bad perf is indeed harder to tolerate.

>>400279560
How does reloading work in hl2vr? Is it manual or just button press? Also, is there any decent way to play hl1 in VR?

>>400671654
The same as Alyx. There's also a 'quick reload' option, which I presume is a button press.

I'll probably get bored quickly, but whatever. Volvo Index looks fancy, but I heard it's not the best buy nowadays. No Facebook shit. Something that works good with Linux would be best.
How about VR piracy, do you need to run Steam or can you just launch exes with Wine and it will all work? How open is VR, are there FOSS softwares doing what Steam VR does?

>>400673761
sorry, there is nothing that fit your demands

>>400673761

i like the pico 3, it is better than the quest if you don't need the standalone games.
wait for pico 4 announcement in a few days

>>400674193
Which one is most difficult to achieve?

>>400674478
for your budget and games you want to play, I would probably go for the Quest 2 and just make a dummy Meta account or whatever

>>400673761
volvo index or the old vive are the only real headsets that work with linux. there is a totally open source OpenXR runtime called monado, but I don't know if it has working positional tracking yet, only 3dof. steamvr itself works on linux/wine though, and despite its name it's essentially just a display driver, no internet required and piracy is just running exes.

I've done a little VR with Quest2 on linux via ALVR and it does work but YMMV because I normally use index for pcvr

>>400673761
Damn that's messed up. I'd say wait for something new to come out or buy a cummed on second hand index and pray it's not broken, although you probably wont find a good price regardless.

>>400674565
Too bad, I don't intend to give Facebook any more data than necessary due to reasons beyond my sole control. Guess I'll wait for more fun games and newer headsets to come out.
>>400677157
Thanks for hints anon!
>>400677420

Oh yeah, now I remember using it on Samsung Gear VR. Too bad the account login appears to be not bypassed on Quest.

Can do.

>>400678707
>I don't intend to give Facebook any more data than necessary due to reasons beyond my sole control
Stop larping and get a Quest 2 and a Meta account.

>>400679680
No what's messed up is that your only options are an Index, a G2, and a Varjo, the first two being not that worth, and the third way out of your budget. I'm in a similar boat as you, except I have a G2, and I'm not sure what kind of experience you'll get with it's underwhelming tracking and a 3070 in these games, since I only play simracing games. I'm also waiting for something new to come out and upgrade as soon as possible. I guess the G2 is your only option, as long as you understand it's not that good of a headset and it's resale value might not be good at all. Also never buy a used G2.

>>400655508
>He doesn't raid Train Yard dual wielding ppshs with drum mags
Why even play?

>>400661386
>FREE
they already fixed that

>>400669393
If you're getting motion sickness from the beginning of the game I'd probably try playing something else to get more settled in and get your vrlegs. Swimming and driving sections will not be a good time for you.
In general, the best way to overcome motion sickness in VR is to continue using it regularly. Play up until the point where you start to get uncomfortable, then stop and come back to it later. You don't want to push too hard and start to associate VR with that sick feeling.
re:gpu lower framerates definitely make motion sickness worse from what i've heard from friends, but it only really bothers me personally when i get sub-30ish fps

>>400669393
For me it was important not to play while dehydrated or on an empty stomach. They made VR sickness much worse and can still give me a headache after a while in VR.

Getting motions sickness means you're of low intelligence.

>>400685303
not getting motion sickness means your brain is literally not working

>>400685472
Quite the opposite. Big brain can distinguish from real danger and no danger. Small brain cannot.

>>400681187
The index is a good headset. It's expensive, but it's good. Bit old now but everything that's come out since then has been meh. It's the half life 2 of headsets; it's still good.

Getting motion sick means your brain is getting mismatched signals between inner ear and eyes. It learns to adapts after a while.

>>400688265
can deaf people get motion sick?

>>400699328
Yes because the bit of the ear is the inner ear cochlea not the sound diaphragm

>>400625570
I'm decently fit but have god awful flat feet which kill me to stand on for extended times, even when shuffling in place. Need to sit down for a short break after about an hour or so.

What do other anons set their VR bitrate to in Virtual Desktop? Is there any noticeable benefits to increasing it from the default?

>>400655508
>keeping stuff at a distance rather than charging in.
Grab a mosin or an sks. There's a 2x scope that only they can attach which is really good. The sks unfortunately has the scope set a lot lower so it blocks the irons but the mosin you can still easily use the irons with the scope attached. Mosin ammo is fucking expensive though.

>>400677157
>>400677420
>>400678671
>>400681187
>>400688181
How about almost new Index for 720 eur? I feel irresponsible wasting this much money on a toy, but thankfully I can afford it. Maybe it will make games fun again.
I don't know, something about that whole kit makes me feel good, better than other kits or mix and match headset + Knuckles.

>>400717736
I wouldn't risk second hand controllers. They're so likely to be at least partially broken.

>>400717736
I have G2 buyers remorse so in my eyes that looks better. You get actual tracking with base stations. You'll get better performance, more hz, and more FOV. Picture quality wont be as good, and people say the controllers break, but I feel like these motherfuckers are fisting themselves with them.

>>400717736
depends a lot on "almost new". the wear points to check are the controllers and the cable. I'd say it's worth it if the seller used it for less than ~100 hours, otherwise you may have to follow it up with a new cable or controllers anyway. the headset itself is fine used though. modulo sweat soaked into the fabric, which you can also replace gasket and stuff if you care.

I keep seeing glare on meta quest 2, even after I take glasses off.

How do I fix that shit?
Seems like maybe the light is reflecting still off something

>>400725548
might've scratched the lenses

>>400725670

>>400706964

and yes it matters

>>400725548

and if you already did then don't make us play 20 questions if you want help

Finally killed the secret boss in Mothergunship Forge. It's ludo and I love its pattern, but it might be too easy as you go down a bunch of challenge rooms beforehand which made my gun too strong.

>>400717736
>Index without a warranty
Not worth it. You will be getting multiple replacements for the controllers and cable which cost way more than you save on a used one.

>>400728504
i was worried coop mode would make the game too easy since singleplayer is mostly a cakewalk, but the enemy spawn rate is so high that i got spooked a couple of times

>>400799334
4080-12 (aka rebranded 4070) = 3090ti.
4080-16 = 1.4x 3090ti
4090 = 1.95 3090ti.

I might just get 4090 and forget about gpu's for the next 2-3 years, but even 4082 looks decent enough.
4090 is basically made for VR.

>>400800146
Shut the fuck up, you stupid nigger.

>>400800146
I'm not your dad.

>>400800805
Wouldn't the 40802 be more than enough? I just want 90 fps on my G2 in simracing games, and maybe the same on any new good headset that comes out.

>>400800805
>24GB G6x
Yes, looks like my trusty 1080ti is going to do its job for another generation

>>400801130
>Yes, looks like my trusty 1080ti
That cope would have worked in an average /v/ thread, but for VR, 1080ti is very outdated.

Herro friends

>>400801293
Every game runs on ultra at 4K with 90 fps, the only thing that has until date made it stutter was skyrim vr with the re-engaged ultimate enb, which going down to 2K resolution was again no problem.

I still dont see a reason to upgrade. Maybe the 50xx

>>400801128
I will wait for reviews.
With that amount of cuda cores, 4090 should scale very well in vr.
12gb of 4082 is borderline.

>>400801293
i still have a 1070ti and it works (mostly)
fine.

>>400800805
i sure love these prices

I think I would need to correct that. Info directly from nvidia.
Damn, 4090 doesn't look good. I want to see the reviews.

>>400802749
These benchmarks are nonsense anyway.

>>400803489
Nvidia wouldn't sandbag 4090 intentionally.
If they themselves are saying things are bad, it's going to be even worse.

>>400803660
The high end series always has extremely diminishing returns.

>>400803909
It was never that bad.
At high res (even 4k, but mostly vr) perf usually scales close to 1:1 with number of cuda cores.
Things like 10% extra perf for almost 2x cuda just never happened before.
Might have been a terrible game choice by nvidia, flight simulator is obviously engine limited there and darktide is not even released.

The good news is that lower end cards are good VR cards simply because the power has gone up massively on the whole range. The bad news is that the lower end cards cost as much as the high end cards used to.

The term "room-scale" has always been incredibly misleading. It also no longer serves any purpose and should be retired. Tracking is on the system level so it doesn't make sense for software to be tagged as "room-scale". For instance, Beat Saber is tagged as "room-scale". You're not even supposed to move around in Beat Saber. Whether or not a game supports "room-scale" tracking is entirely dependent on your hardware and VR software. Plus, the name is misleading. "Room-scale" just means "really big play area" or "customizable tracking range". There is no "scaling" going on. There is still playable game space outside your physical playable area. There are a tiny handful of titles that are truly "room-scale" and this overused term does a huge disservice to them.

>>400811947
"roomscale" and valve's retarded vr restrictions were a mistake and i'm glad hl2vr's success proves it

>>400812251
>>400811947

explain? i'm out of the loop

>>400812538
early on valve had this stupid idea that "you shouldn't move players in vr without them moving rl because it makes people sick" and "your vr hands and your real hands should always be in the same position 100% of the time" which is the reason alyx had no smooth locomotion and manual ladder climbing originally and have no two handed and melee weapons
which is true if you're new to vr and susceptible to motion sickness but it's nothing that people can't overcome and these design philosophies heavily limit in what you can do in vr

>>400811947
I think 'roomscale' originally meant games like Job Simulator where you could where you don't use artificial locomotion.

>>400811947
Room-scale is a shitty way of just saying 6DoF. At one point when there were no other 6DoF sensors and trackers designed for domestic rooms it might have been an apt description but now with inside-out headsets it's completely meaningless.

How do you get the Quest 2 to not ignore an external battery, do you have to keep it unpluged until the internal battery gets to 70-80%?

>>400814425
just put it on after you turn the headset on

I just the m2 bobo and I just turn it on and take the battery off, push the button, then put it back on

connects every time

>>400814674
I've tried that and it keeps ignoring it, I'm trying to figure out if I need a newer battery, better cable, or if it's just how the headset works.

The custom 2fort server is basically just that. IF you want CS in VR you'll need to search for Search and Destroy games.
A word of advice: familiarize yourself with which weapons to get and which ones to avoid, and more necessarily how to plant/defuse the bomb. SnD is the most competetive gamemode and people will get pissed with you if you let the bomb blow up because you don't know how to defuse (or lose the match because you don't know how to plant).

>>400822834
TTT and Roleplay servers are infested with children. If you want to play with the boomers you've got to find one running S&D or Push.

What exactly is the point of grips in the planes in vtol?

>>400842890
What do you mean?

hl2vr has manual reloading implemented in a way that feels buggy and unfinished. whenever i grab over my shoulder, the ammo clips spawn and despawn most of the time, so that system ended up being unreliable to the point i shut it off. auto reloading felt way better for most weapons, but auto reload for the RPG is bugged and unreliable as well, especially when you're crouching. that ruined the strider battles for me and wasted quite a lot of my time. they should change that to just hold the button to reload.

the two-handed weapon thing also needs a little more work. all too often you're presented with a situation where you know your best weapon is the SMG, but the next situation is beyond a door. if you want two-handed weapons, you should really cut down the amount of doors you need to manually activate to progress. trying to let go of the two handed weapons felt like trying to shake a sticky cumsock off your hand. fix that and cut down on the doors and that will work a lot better.

ladder climbing feels like shit in every VR game and is an unwelcomed chore that just breaks immersion by being lame and shitty. any time you're reminded you're in a game, you're taken out of the virtual world. you're no longer thinking about your current task, but how to mechanically bypass it. the auto mode for that also feels just as clunky and shitty as it does in the base game. a third option to just teleport through the ladder with a fade to black would help a lot.

also as i'm walking around i'm constantly grabbing props without realizing it. i can't count on my fingers how many times i realized i couldn't sprint and it was because i was unknowingly dragging a dead body behind me, or i couldn't activate an object because there was a crate shard glued to my hand. they need to raycast grabbing to only the cones of vision from the player's perspective. HL:A has this down pat.

they should be hard copying half-life Alyx on this one. that's where all our expectations lie.

>>400843753
Isn't the reloading exactly the same as Alyx?

>>400843753
there might be something with your grip buttons or bindings
that would also explain despawing ammo clips because clip goes back into backpack if released
for me reloading felt as natural as alyx except missing hand models on some weapons and rpg, hitbox on that one is indeed a little wonky
and i think grav gun when holding something should give you crosshair like on boat/car machine gun

>>400844141
worlds apart. Alyx felt so finely polished i couldn't compare it to anything else. hl2vr's weapon system needs serious work. also have to mention the weapon wheel should be raycast upside to your vision. too many times i opened that menu it was in a position i couldn't see or access all of the weapon slots.

once they've ironed out everything to the point it's reliable; easily 10/10 mod.

>>400844560
It works fine the same as Alyx for me. It works every time. However, one of the Alyx mods seemed to have a different hitbox for grabbing a new magazine that was way too small so it was almost impossible to reload consistently.

>>400844513
my index controllers are well-used and one is an RMA replacement. don't want to find out these things last 1-2 years/1K game hours tops before they start fucking up but that seems to be true.

>there might be something with your grip buttons or bindings
i haven't seen anyone else complaining about the reload system like me so that could be true. it feels like it's functioning perfectly fine, however i still think i have a point. if a system is so rigid it can't work with partially-functioning controllers then perhaps it's too rigid.

i have a tendency to grip where one finger sticks out and doesn't contact the controller. does that mean that the ammo is requiring contact from five fingers? how about a minimum of two? or one? how about it glues itself to the hand until it goes into the gun? hypothetical examples of the changes i'm hinting at, still could be my issue, i couldn't figure it out.

i beat the game so i haven't tried yesterday's patch yet. hopefully they'll fix everything to the point i have no petty complaints.

>>400844996
index controllers or other?

>>400845542
Try adjusting the grip thresholds in the SteamVR controls menu. Your controllers have lasted better than average; the 2019 models lasted about 50 hours before the thumbstick started to drift, and about another 10 before it stopped working completely.

>>400845704
Yes. Index.

>>400843050
The actual grips on the sides of the plane, wiki says to hold the right one for carrier takeoffs which I found didn't matter but that's all I could find since googling the terms was only yielding controller grips

>>400799334
You would think that with motion interpolation that VR devs would be adding in DLSS3 to compete with and outdo ASW on Quest and the interpolation on PSVR. Instead, much like DLSS2 and even AMD's open source equivalents, they will continue to force us to use shitty bilinear upscaling and SteamVR's wiggly interpolation or nothing. Even triple A VR games largely don't bother which is sad. It's just the tip of the iceberg of VR devs being lazy+no gaems in general.

More VRAM will be nice for more HD texture mods in Skyrim at least.

>>400832289
man fuck anomalies. I died from 80% health in the last castle. it's bullshit. at least I was not on ironman mode

Bruh they are loud as fuck, just he careful when you hear earsplitting electricity sounds

Is 8GB VRAM enough if to play PCVR on my Quest 2 and crank the resolution to the maximum ? I can get a 3060Ti for a little less than MSRP but I'm wondering if I go for a 12GB card instead. Most VR games don't seem very demanding graphically so I assume VRAM is going to be more important.

Does VR chat support bots? Could you have a whole harem of waifus in your private room?

>>400886646
I got myself a 3070 and I can get a 150% res high settings (with DLSS) on 90hz in Q2. not sure how it would go with Alyx and other hot titles. generally more VRAM is better

>>400887061
forgot to say while playing ItR

>>400887061
Thanks, so I guess 8GB fine but 12GB better, I'm going to wait and see if the pricing for the coming gen is retarded or not.

>>400811947
Yes anon, we know, so why tell us? Why don't you email Gabe?

>>400878775
Last update they made them bigger by accident I guess so they were actually impossible to navigate without having to go through them. You do still have a two second window after they've shocked something to run through them though. Throw a fucking probe, look for the sparks in the center that flash when it's idle so you can judge the shortest route through it, and move fast.

Is DLSS a thing for VR?

Asked similar things before but
>Beat Saber half the time won't load any lighting if I don't open and close the options menu for every song attempt
>Some songs just won't work period
For the former, what. Latter, is there some way to just copy in a generic lighting map to said bare songs? I upload a lot and already redid half my videos just for quality purposes

Damn bratty counter terrorist! Defuse a bomb! Eco correction is needed...

>have to stop playing to eat
how do we fix this?

>>400896643
I have a hard time believing anyone is so hooked on shit vr games that you cant bother eating

>>400888260
I 2nd this question

>>400897051
Or you could just not eat every two fucking hours since your body isn't evolved for that

>>400896643
>>400897051
I was soo fucking hooked on lineage 2 in my late teenage years I not just refused to eat but I also held back shitting and routinely played 24 hours straight.

Must have been the most unhealthy part of my life. I was just addicted to pvp, grinding, better my characters just to pvp more. I broke multiple servers with exploits causeing multiple server wipes, I was raiding alone on my pc running 5-6 clients at the same time. It was fucking ugly.

I wish anything made me that excited and hooked anymore...

>>400898176
Ultima Online for me.
I didn't skip meals though. Eating was fuel to play another 6 hours

>>400898238
I mean this kind of unhealthy addiction rarely spawns in healthy households. If mom gave a single fuck and delivered food frequently I would have ate more probably.

I think lineage 2 unironically stunted my growth. Shitty sleep and low calories for a year must have had catastrophic side effects.

>>400843753

HL:A has this down pat.

this is a problem with the index controllers in general imo, you either have it set to grab on touch and constantly grab shit by accident or you set it grab on squeeze and you'll have to keep squeezing it constantly when you have to hold something

after switching form the rift s to the index, the one thing i miss the most is a dedicated grip button (apart from replacable/external batteries)

>>400919453
I would not recommend AMD for VR. I had a 6800 XT, the average frame rate was bad but even worse it would stutter to zero FPS every few seconds making it completely unusable. I had it for about 6 months and never found a fix, only others with the same problem on various sites, and AMD never addressed the issue with drivers or anything.

>>400921882

i hate nvidia but how much do i have to suffer with amd?

any good site for free vr porn that has ok quality?

>>400922742
I can't really say since I have a mid range card and run linux anyway which is why I don't buy nVidia
it's pretty bad for me though

And from those first two games I got more entertainment than I would on a $300 (okay $50 for strap) Q2 than for several straight generations of modern consoles. Hell I regret buying a Switch even because I just played Splatoon 2 on it which was good and Nintendo at least makes non SJW walking simulator exclusives but yeah I didn't think I'd get into VR this hard.

Typing this also if anyone needs games to look into, wouldn't write this much just for a shitpost. Now go tell me every game on there is apparently shit by copy pasting negative steam reviews and why it doesn't apply to what you like

>>400964927

Why haven't you bothered with those games you listed? Just not interested or never got around to them? Boneworks/B&S/Alyx are pretty good experiences, and I really wish No Man's Sky didn't run like absolute dick

>>400969675
The only good part of no man's sky was flying your ship. Everything else was boring as piss.

>>400969675
Pretty much. For reasons I'm just interested in a narrow type of game which is competitive, involves developing skills in a non mindlessly grindy way and/or "here's some shit go make it work" esque genres where you build up a temporary character over time, e.g. BRs (christ I miss when pubg was relevant) and roguelites. Just not really into RPGs or sandboxy type stuff and also heard B&S was unfinished/lacking content or something.

There's reasons beyond preference not worth getting into

>>400969996
B&S is trying to head in that direction. Every so often they tease stuff about player stats and their dungeon mode but right now it's not much. The dungeon is there - procedural generation of rooms as you move your way through some cliff side fortress but the nature of the game doesn't really leave much room for perks and gear treadmills. It's more on your own skill as a player that dictates your effectiveness rather than the gear you find in blade and sorcery.

Fake realism is one thing but having to learn a whole choreography to reload is one of the more annoying things in VR. More games need the option to make relaoding a one button click

I was gonna call you a faggot, but without the 4chan edge I'm just amazed how widely the tastes vary even in such a niche hobby. It's fascinating, isn't it? VR reloading is one of my favourite VR things...

>smash my controllers together every time I reload in H3VR
>they stop working after a month
oopsie

>>401022543
Same, i like the reloading even when it's just going through fake motions like rec room's "flip the gun 360deg to one-hand reload". I remember some faggot in an earlier thread saying how aiming with controllers in your hands was annoying and inaccurate and that VR games should just support mouse aiming instead. you get all types here.

>>401022543
I feel like VR reloading is the absolute minimum a VR shooter should have, with button reload the game is nothing more but a glorified lightgun shooter
Though it is interesting how some people put more weight on the interactivity (using 6 digrees of freedom with two controllers) and some on the immersion (six degrees of freedom of head tracking)

Notable things from the pico presentation:
>just dance VR pico exclusive
>avatar API
>no mention of PCVR connectivity (but virtual desktop will have it)
>leg trackers (separate?)
>focus on european and east asian markets
>€429 128gb $499 256gb

>>401026892
Basically no point buying if you have Q2 just like we predicted.
Pico 4 Pro might be worth it if the eye tracking is good.
