  Okay, so I only got to play about 3-4 games of death match with other people, I didn't get to play during happy hour, but the little amount that I did play was extremely fun, I haven't played many PVP VR games, but you guys are easily on the right track for making one I had a lot of fun, even when there wasn't people in my game, flying around with the mechanics was really smooth, and enjoyable.

 

  Other than the obvious "the game still needs work" complaint, there isn't much to complain about, However after playing for more than 30 minutes at a time I would start to feel some motion sickness, and this is coming from a person who hasn't experienced that in VR yet. Not sure if it's just my body not being able to handle flying around or if its a visual problem from the game.


If I had a few requests for things to be added to the game I'd ask:


1.) Make some of the objects destructible. I'd love to shoot all the pots, and maybe the boxes and barrels as well.


2.) I'd like to be able to reload before I run out of ammo, looks like most buttons on the controller are taken, so maybe a gesture or a flick of the wrist to reload when I have half a clip left, or perhaps pressing the same button for the weapon you already have in hand will start the reload animation. I'd like to be able to reload behind a corner without shooting and possibly giving away my position.

Other than those things I don't have much else to say. Looking forward to the next Beta, and seeing the changes and progress that gets made!

Actually you can reload with the grip button on the controller that you are holding the gun. It took me some time to notice since there's no sound or animation.

Great to hear that you liked the movement mechanics! 

Did you manage to put in a few sessions? We've had some people who would feel some motion sickness at first, but eased off as they played the second & third time. However you did note, that this hasn't happened to you previously in VR.

We'll definitely bring more destruction & animations as we develop the game, that is a must!

As Tommy noted above, you can Reload your weapon by using the Grip Button on the Vive (same as the Grappling Hook).
