unogueen Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 Is there already a steady market for this? Seems like a good fit considering locomotion is still an issue. You can have like Time Crisis pedals where you take cover and shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stepee Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 Yeah Id love more light gun rail shooters, not stand in one place horde mode games, in VR. Unfortunately most are the stand around and face mobs in horde mode type though. Rush of Blood on psvr was really good and its sequel Switchback (is that the name? i might be making the name up) is the killer app for psvr2 for me and that comes out soon. Dead and Burried is okay. You can get emulators going for psx and arcade light gun games which I need to bother to set up some day, since you could actually play those proper again in vr. The two rollercoaster Quest 2 games, Epic Coaster and I forget the name of the other, have shooter modes which be up making those kind of like light gun shooters but they aren’t really built for it so they are kind of aimless.

Ghost_MH Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 I'd be 100% down for a shooting gallery game in VR. I even printed out some pistol grips for my Quest 2 controllers a while back that don't get nearly enough use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gamer.tv Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 I wonder if they’ll port Killer7 to VT at some, random point in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XxEvil AshxX Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 I want them to port the RE Umbrella Chronicles so I can get motion sickness and vomit all over my desk and legs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heck this one was just shown at the SoP Pistol Whip is a gallery shooter/rhythm game. That one's been out for a while. That game plays more like the arcade Police 911 than something like Time Crisis. A real gallery shooter wouldn't really involve much actual motion and could be played seated. Many other VR shooters are full first person shooters, like Alyx or Walking Dead Saints and Sinners.

Between those types and the stand in one place horde modes that don’t move you along games like Space Trainer/Serious Sam Last Hope, it’s really surprising how few that are a really like the type we are referring to there are. I’d love to see it become more popular, it’s a shame that Rush of Blood is stuck in a dead system since there isn’t even bc for psvr2, I hope they get to port it at some point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dexterryu Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 Shooting in VR is kinda mixed IMHO. Here is my experience: Any longer/larger gun that requires 2 hands and precise aiming is very weird in VR without a "gunstock" to properly use 2 hands with. Even still, they miss out on a lot of the feel of actually firing a rifle or shotgun due to the lack of weight and physical recoil. This is similar issue I have with most sword fighting games. The lack of physical weight to weapons is very immersion breaking if you've ever used any of them in real life (also why Beat Saber feels really nice). Hand guns work and feel generally really good, so long as the devs don't try to get too detailed and realistic with reloading (looking at H3). Bow & Arrow games are also good and work surprisingly well. Half Life: Alyx is by far the best (IMHO). It makes the wise choice of making the guns mostly 1 handed for aiming and has the best movement options depending on your tolerance for getting nautious. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its the true killer app for this headset. If you have a good wheel and racing seat (I need a wheel, I have a cab for my HOTAS flight sticks), and you enjoy racing games, it’s absolutely incredible.

There are some gunstocks where you can mount the controllers that work pretty decent for Index/Vive. That said they aren't cheap and they're still also light (compared to an actual rifle). Handguns still feel better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though some are better than others. really didn’t like the blasters in the star wars game, but yeah, the rifles were even worse. I expect this will get those types of accessories as well. jusr a matter of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
