Galaxy S5 work for Gear VR? I feel like I should start there for my VR experience if there's anything decent for it coming up.

No, GS6 or newer.

 

[DerZuhälter]

Well.. Jebowman looks terrible. I feel teleported into a Wii bargain bin.

 

[OldGangWarily]

Man the sound effects are repetitive in Jibo Man

 

[geordiemp]

I'm with Jeff, using analogue movement in Gear VR didn't get me sick and I much prefer to do that than teleporting constantly around.

There is hope for PSVR...

 

[tuxfool]

I think analog stick movement is a shitty locomotion solution that will be bred out of VR games.

And it breaks in all sorts of ways. It only works in vehicle type situations.

 

[Lingitiz]

There is hope for PSVR...

Are games even being designed with the Move subcontroller in mind?

 

[geordiemp]

"I like real movement in video games"

"It feels limiting in a 'fun video game' way"

Same.

VR might be worth it once they solve motion sickness on free walking.

Analog stick, Treadmill, whatever, I just want to move around a large space (without having an extra empty room).

Skyrim, Minecraft, etc. I want to be in a world, not a room.

Along with the games themselves feeling less like tech demos/arcade titles/downloadable indies.

But RIGS has managed left stick movement - just go in a robot.

RIGS robot in destiny shooter....what VR needs.

 

[TharpDaddy]

Skyrim, Minecraft, etc. I want to be in a world, not a room.

Exactly. I'd love to play these small demos but what you're saying is the endgame for me. I want to have VR put me in those worlds. Not little boxes. I'm really excited for what VR can become.

 

[Glitchesarecool]

No, GS6 or newer.

Well shit.

 

[Z3M0G]

OMFG THIS IS ON STEAM!?!?!?!?

THIS IS GONNA BLOW THEIR FUCKING MINDS

Edit: crap... it doesn't seem intuitive to new users...

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

Charging handle Brad.

 

[oti]

NRA Simulator?

This is the most Brad ass Brad situation.

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

I think it's safe to say Brad has little experience with real guns.

 

[Falifax]

#teambrad

 

[derFeef]

One second ago I wanted to order one, now I am just not sure. Roomscale is important it seems but not many games will have it.

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

Lol that's the forward assist.

 

[Croatoan]

As an AR 15 owner...this is embarrassing to watch.

My god, these guys are not Texans at all.

 

[Chuck]

lol it just fell down

 

[Lingitiz]

Development on roomscale games is pretty early but considering if you want to make anything on Vive you have to do it, I'm sure there will be a decent amount of stuff.

But RIGS has managed left stick movement - just go in a robot.

RIGS robot in destiny shooter....what VR needs.

Isn't RIGS a controller based game? They're talking about player movement while retaining the fidelity of the Vive motion controllers.

 

[Z3M0G]

omg this is the coolest VR demo ever... when you watch the creator play it...

I'm glad they are not giving up on it...

 

[petethepanda]

It'd be cool if they did another version of Receiver for VR. (That game makes me think of GOTY 2013 podcasts.)

 

[oti]

BRAAAAAAAAAAAAD

 

[kAmui-]

I think it's safe to say Brad has little experience with real guns.

I think I remember him saying that of the crew he probably has the most experience with guns.

 

[AaronMT86]

fuck it go with the space gun

 

[Jakoo]

I think it's safe to say Brad has little experience with real guns.

I hate it when I'm on the gun range when I drop my gun and can't crouch down and pick it up ;-)

 

[Brinbe]

Can be clumsy in VR too

Teleportation is the devs use to get around exploring environment in VR.

 

[alexbull_uk]

"I can't grab it!"

Is trying to pick it up using the stock...

 

[Ricker]

Some of those games look awful lol...like he said a few times,bye so and so game,and you probably will never play it again...

 

[Zalusithix]

You shouldn't be dropping your gun. =P

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

Not with AR-15s then, I guess.

Yeah I don't know what was happening there. The grip buttons are kinda finicky.

 

[oti]

this looks duuuuuuuuuuuuuumb

 

[Chuck]

this seems poor

 

[AaronMT86]

Shovelware

 

[Kimaka]

Embarrassing southerners everywhere smh

 

[arevin01]

Ok so far the vive controls look awkward, this wud be better with a xbox controller.

 

[robotrock]

I regret not ordering a Vive when they went up. Waiting until May seems like it'd be tough.

 

[Gecoma]

Only tuned in the last half an hour. I miss anything good in the first 2 and a half hours? Worth going back?

 

[kvk1]

damn, jeff

 

[Jakoo]

Good point. If the game is too finicky to allow picking up guns there should at least be some attendant that escorts you out for being a danger to yourself and others, lol

 

[Death Metalist]

It'd be cool if they did another version of Receiver for VR. (That game makes me think of GOTY 2013 podcasts.)

It's like that, here's the developer trying it out then again he's the one who made it so he knows where to touch, hold and everything else.

 

[Z3M0G]

this looks duuuuuuuuuuuuuumb

This is the non-dumb version:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uDh6lh0IHuo

But it's not GB's fault... there is no instruction on what to do. And it's too picky with actions for its own good it seems.

 

[VeryGooster]

Gimme dat Russian roulette VR game.

I feel like I'd be into shooting shit in VR with a Wii Zapper-type accessory

 

[Glitchesarecool]

Seems like it's primarily this game so far unless I missed something.

Only tuned in the last half an hour. I miss anything good in the first 2 and a half hours? Worth going back?

Oh yeah, tons of great stuff at the start.

 

[alexbull_uk]

If you've never seen this game before, I'd highly recommend you check out the creator's YouTube channel to see how well it can work:

[derFeef]

I think I would be fine without the controllers for most of the games. Like Minecraft to actually be in Minecraft but not have to bother with the motion stuff which can get tiresome I guess?

 

[Slamtastic]

Teleportation is the devs use to get around exploring environment in VR.

And it's dumb looking.

 

[GribbleGrunger]

I get the feeling that you might rejoin us on the hype train when specific preconditions in manufacturing are met.

What the hell is that supposed to mean? Maybe if I see something worthwhile playing and not just MOVE crap, yes. Look, I understand the difference between MOVE and this and I understand, and can fully imagine, that you actually feel you're within the world, and I fully understand how your brain can be fooled into feeling real world experiences within VR. What I'm saying is these worlds look terrible and no more than simple tech demos that should be given away for free. When I see something more substantial then I'll perhaps be on board with the whole 'VR is the future' thing again but with these games leading the charge ... It's DEAD on arrival. And when I say dead I mean 'This is cool!' ... 'Yeah, it was never that good anyway.'

Dreadful and potentially the Wii/Kinect/MOVE all over again. Having No Man's Sky at launch of the PSVR might just right the ship a little but as of now this is a kiddy/granny machine all over again. Harsh, I know, but I'm genuinely angered by these pitiful offerings here that only exist in this form because they know people will 'need something to play'.

 

[Mihos]

As a veteran, watching him try to use that M16 is just painful.

Yeah, your just wrong, but fortunately you being on board doesn't keep my headset from working.

 

[akileese]

I know you can do standing/sitting so my question is how to do the motion controls (if at all) without room scale VR?
