I would imagine the little maintenance cars would thrive in that environment. thevintagenews.com/…/speeder-motorized-vehicle-fo… I don’t know the world background, but if it’s rebuilding after some catastrophic event, the might be some car modifications to make them rail ready, stealing the wheels off of larger defunct trains.
I’m not sure what you’re talking about when it comes to VR. They never stopped supporting VR… Like at all. Odyssey also has full VR support and has since launch. I am genuinely confused as to why you think that
The new on-foot FPS gameplay that they added with Odyssey didn’t get first class VR support. You can keep your headset on, but you have to switch to a regular control method and control the game as though it’s on a 2D monitor even though you’re wearing a 6DOF headset with motion controls available. For anyone that’s played VR, this is the worst kind of experience and very disappointing.
Making first-class VR controls is a lot of extra work, probably, but for a game that was sold as a flagship VR title when the original Oculus came out, it just leaves a bad taste for all the VR players, who felt like FDev were leaving them behind.
Maybe they’ve added better support now, but I wouldn’t know about that as I haven’t played it. On release it was a disappointment for VR players.
Does the rest of the game support full motion controls now? It didn’t the last time I played, so it didn’t matter if you were in ship or on foot; you were doing everything with a normal controller, M&KB or joystick setup regardless. It always annoyed me because why can’t I just use my hands to move the throttle stick and steering column in-game?
That’s a fair point. I used a HOTAS, the Logitech Saitek X52 which the in-game ship controls are modelled after, which was the most immersive way to play.
I’m still pissed that I attempted to buy that setup from Amazon like 3 times, and they would ship it but then cancel the order and refund me without explanation. I want one of those so damn bad 😭
Yeah, I also used to play E:D a lot until Odyssey dropped. VR+HOTAS was an amazing experience despite the grindy nature of the game. I enjoyed every second of it - but wow Odyssey really threw it out the window.
I’ve been playing No Man’s Sky a lot lately and it’s super fun, but it makes me want to try E:D again. I don’t have VR anymore, but I wonder if it would be good with head-tracking. I also feel like I’ve missed out on so much of the ongoing story the past few years.
Steam seems to be down right now and PS doesn’t let you buy the game. The number of people wanting to buy the game right this moment must be unimaginably high
Might catch flak for this, but Starfield.
I just wanted something mindless where I could mix FPS with base building and RPG elements. I know there’s Fallout 4, but I want my bases looking nice. Starfield isn’t exactly the best for looks either, but it’s the best I have in my library for these aforementioned things. I’m open to suggestions, but until then I’m just going to randomly kill things on Starfield.
I’m a huge FF fan, and 14 has a lot of praise so I had a go. I enjoyed FFXI somewhat so I thought maybe 14 would be enjoyable, but no matter how long I stuck around I just couldn’t figure out if it was fun. I spent a lot of time making number go up, but when I stepped away from the computer I felt like I hadn’t achieved anything.
I played through the base game. The first expansion. Began the second expansion. I reflected on my experience and I couldn’t even tell you what the game was about. It’s just walk here, click an NPC, walk there click an NPC, fight battle, repeat. And the battles are so boring; the expectation is that you learn the ideal rotation of attacks and abilities and you just apply that to 99% of battles and make sure to do them efficiently - if you can’t do that you are labelled a noob.
Maybe the difference between 11 and 14 was that I did 11 with a friend, so it felt like I was spending time with him, whereas I did 14 by myself.
Much as I love XIV’s story, I really needed to break up story progression with other content, just for variety. I leveled up all crafters, did many daily raids, etc.
I get it man, you’re playing competitive online games and not want to be stuck with randoms, but that’s just the way it is.
But I don’t suppose I have to tell you that you really shouldn’t feel obligued to tell people what should and shouldn’t be fun for them in games that they spent their hard earned money on?
School and job is exhaustive my man, add it to it how stressful and hard to learn online games are and it should be easy to understand that most people may not be willing to put extra effort into being competitive in them, but they still want and deserve to have fun in them on their own rules.
Like I’ve said it the post it’s not the “playing bad” that makes irritates me, everyone has a different skill level. What I’m trying to say is that people that run head first into the safe room in L4D and abandon their team, or people that play games like HD2 on the hardest difficulty and just run off from their team and spam stratagems. Clearly these types of players don’t want to engage in cooperating with other players yet choose co-op games. They end up not having fun as solo diving enemies ends up in death while the rest of the team has to cover for a +1 .
Every example you just mentioned is a demonstration of “playing bad” in my book. What would you descibe as “playing bad”? Just aiming issues? Or reaction times? Surely that would be to reductive.
Using competitive online games as an example in my post was a mistake. Think D&D. You can’t really play the game 100% how you want. You need to keep the other players (+DM) in mind. If your rolls suck or your plans don’t work out in the end doesn’t annoy me at all -its just a game after all. What I do find annoying is a player treating D&D as a single player RPG, running around on their own, trying to make the story resolve around themselves and not cooperating with the party. If that’s how a player wants to play the game maybe they should stick to living room D&D or Roll20. If said player joins a table at a local hobby shop some form of etiquette and understanding of the game is required. If they decide to play as a murderhobo that constantly ruins the experience of the other players they will be reprimanded or even kicked out. Instead they should either choose to join murderhobo games, stick to aforementioned living room D&D or start up a videogame. Play the game how you want by all means I don’t mean to take it away from anyone. Just know the when and how is my point. Just because you bought siege doesn’t mean you HAVE to play ranked. You like the game casually or play off work/college then join unranked or quick-play. Gamers today feel like they have to fit tightly in their respective communities instead of playing the games how they want to and that ends up ruining their teammates and ,most importantly, the player themselves.
Ok, thank you for clarifying, I get what you mean now. As I understand it you’re mad at players playing egotistically and treating others as NPCs. I would say that that is a more general social issue, that isn’t limited to gaming. Sadly, you’ll have to just deal with it.
I’ve been a computer gamer since 1980 and, apart from a really excellent few years playing Unreal Tournament in a clan in the early 2000s, have entirely played solo.
Like others, I have a life. People don’t get upset online if I get called away from the PC for a while. Or upset IRL if I’m focusing on a team game instead of them.
I’m not waiting around until we’ve got a group together. I’m not getting angry at a team-mate for accidentally fragging me. I’m not apologising for accidentally fragging someone else. I don’t have to put up with someone else’s childish taunting, or racist/offensive views. I don’t have an over-sugared twelve year old screaming into my ears because they found the fire button.
I would like more big open-world games that have a decent solo-first experience, but otherwise this way fits me nicely and your message only reinforces that for me.
Totally understandable, and I don’t mean to drive people away from online games or put their skill set through a purity test. My point is: Hey if you don’t like sweaty games, don’t play sweaty games (or their sweaty game modes like ranked in most games) and if you do try to meet the game halfway. If I play Outward the way I play Fallout I’m going to have a bad time. That goes double for online games.
