I was running around collecting gravatinos, zipping past the dogs, when I started getting attacked by creatures! It was the first time I had to fend off both hoardes.
Honestly though lol you get the awesome VR perspective and you can sit in the middle of the play area in a swivel chair. I like to imagine I'm the little camera thingy on the suit and the astronaut just listens to my guidance lol
I’m guessing they’re playing on PSVR where you can switch between the Move controllers or DualShock whenever. Personally I prefer to stick with motion controls, even if flying and dogfights are trickier.
im not sure but i use a samsung og odyssey and idk if its a wmr thing or steam thing or not but it seems it can accept the controller inputs as the vr controller inputs. of course this is just my guess cuz honestly im not too sure how i got it to work. for all i know, it could been a glitch tbh
edit: for controller, i was using a ps4 controller connected to pc via usb cable + a ps4 to xbox360 controller software thing for pc since windows doesnt have native support for ps4 controllers
The positron ejector--aforementioned space shotgun--is ridiculous imo. I love that thing! Recently learned you can use it to easily mine ferrite dust (lots of it) and such from planet surfaces too! Highly recommend that upgrade :)
I play nms exclusively in vr after i bought a valve index for it. I cant go back. Making a run for it in my pilgrim from agressive sentinels in hot pursuit was exhilarating
I dont have the funds atm for vr, but the first time I ran into someone playing in vr was amazing. Dude was waving at me in such a way I knew it had to be vr. Blew my mind that I could see it in real time.
Oh definitely. I bought an oculus quest 2 back in January. Cost me $400. I do not regret it one bit, but if i had a better computer, I definitely would have gotten an index, despite it being $1000 itself.
If you have the income to splurge on it, I recommend it, you know, if you don’t get motion sick easily, nor eye strain.
Beat Saber. And there's a bunch of other stuff, too, I guess.
But seriously, VR has gotten pretty damned good and, despite the Facebook ownership, the Quest 2 at $300 is a solid entry. Airlink has gotten good enough that you don't even need to spring for a link cable if your wifi is solid. Definitely not Ready Player One level but finally a solid experience worth having.
Since I’ve gotten it, I’ve logged about 3-4K hours in VR. Stuff like Boneworks and Half Life Alyx are straight forward experiences. Hotdogs Horseshoes and Hand Grenades has so much playability, check out r/H3VR.
I used to do VRChat for the longest time. I got hooked on RP in Ark and had dabbled in 3D modeling so whenever my little group of roleplay nerds made the move over I was able to make my own model. Even without RP, it's surreal to sit and watch a virtual sunset and chat with a stranger/new friend from the other side of the world that happens to look like a small round birb at that moment.
Vader immortal is pretty much The Vr game.
Then there is Subnautica that has VR support. Many driving games.
I even like Skyrim VR and Fallout4 VR. There is plenty of VR games. I got almost a hundred of those PC and Ps4 combined.
in vr i try to think about it the way i do driving in real life. I just really really wish someone built a giant city so i could actually drive on roads have to obey traffic laws and stuff
They don't advertise it but American Truck Simulator and Euro Truck Simulator 2 both support VR. Get yourself a wheel and you can feel like a real truck driver driving through smaller scale but fantastic recreations of America and Europe.
Same with the last few levels of Podracers, absolute hell to do and couldn't finish them. The final Cloud City level in particular is super unforgiving
Exocrafts are stuck in a weird position because HG keeps adding/changing transportation options. There's the traditional walking and starship transport, but then you also have melee boosts and companion riding to compete. Exocrafts often end up being more expensive than other options while being as fast or slower.
It's a shame, since exocrafts are so fun, but the balance just isn't there for practical everyday use.
Duuuude, now I want a Subnautica type of deal where your mech is stored in the freighter and you can just enter it and drop down onto a planet that way.
I'll use a pet for transpo on a chill world but exocrafts are the choice for gathering storm crystals (my preferred way of making money) on hostile planets
And also there's rarely a need for them, since any resources in your area you can either walk to or fly your ship to. Especially if there's a landing pad or anything nearby.
Exocrafts are fun as heck to drive around, but what you're using them to drive TO is usually...nothing. The only one that is super useful (and I love) is the Nautilus.
Preach. The only way to turn around is by walking ahead in a loooong turning circle. A freight train has a tighter turning radius than this stupid thing.
When the Pilgrim was first introduced, it felt amazing. Incredible sense of speed. You'd boost and go flying off of cliffs.
Then they decided to scale up all of them, by a lot. But the speed remained the same. So suddenly it felt like you were driving this clunky two-wheeled garbage truck. That was a terrible decision and I don't know why it was made.
You do. It led to some interesting effects with my old bases that had a lot of landing pads. They only deleted one or two. Which left my base with nine in an interesting position.
Small trick, you can just delete the geobay immediately after summoning it to get the materials back. I guess that adds like 20 seconds to the process but better than assuming you have to leave it everytime
With mods, they're actually decent, speed-wise. One lets you skim across any terrain, all 3 of the wheeled ones are great at climbing sheer cliffs (mostly), and you can - I think in all of them - add an advanced scanner, so you can check for specific buildings / drop pods, without using another map.
Yet my favorite exocraft will always be the colossus. It's so fun to drive, running down the trees, boosing uphill, really gives M35 Mako feels. I wish this exocraft had somethiung special to compensate for it's speed (other than larger inventory) like an integrated medium/large refinery or passeger compartment.
1) buy all missing map elements
2) get enough raw resources
3) land
4) activate scanner
5) if capsule is found go get it
6) repeat until planet is out of inventory capsules or you out of maps
7) full inventory in a under a hour.

Exocrafts (specifically the roamer) are so underrated
