Yeah I can definitely see how annoying that is. It just looks hilarious when you’re a klutz at the game.

Everything feels pretty intuitive on Quest 1 except for overhead smash shots. I have no idea where my paddle is in relation to the ball.

Quest 2 ordered!

4700

Woohoo!

4701

Any chance of getting up some Population: One teams? It’s clunky but also pretty nice.

4702

Wait what?! X-Wing Alliance has VR support? Yea!

@schurem - when did you order? I keep checking like 10x a day for a shipping e-mail.

4703

Awesome Oculus sale. I picked up Stormfront on the PC. On the Quest 2 I got the Vader pack for $20 because I haven’t tried any of the games. I also got In Death and proceeded to play it until my Q2 almost died. Great game.

4704

Someone been watching ‘The Boys’ recently? ;)

Let us know how it works streaming to Quest 2, which is how I assume you’ll be playing it. I heard it had pretty steep system requirements, interested in finally picking it up.

4705

Yes, which is why I said “if you don’t already have it”. But the Steam version is cross-buy with nothing and the same price so… why buy the Steam version?

4706

I also learned today I can cast the screen to the Oculus phone app. This would have been so useful the last few months.

4707

Wait? I need a Facebook account to even buy Oculus games from the Rift store tab? Ugh.

4708

Correct, Oculus games are tied to a Facebook account.

4709

You can cast it to any Chromecast device too, Google Home Hub, or built in to many TVs. And the newest feature is casting to a URL.

I would suggest checking to see if game is available on SteamVR before buying from the Oculus store, Revive seems to work really well overall, but in the end, it’s an unsupported hack, and native SteamVR is your best bet for new purchases unless a game is Oculus-exclusive.

I have like 30 Oculus games so I’m glad Revive exists, but I wont buy anything else from the Oculus store unless it’s an exclusive that I really want.

4711

Early July. About fook’n time, no? I’m afraid I’ll only be able to run XwA on it, because the line for the 3080 is only ever so slowly dwindling down. Place 154 atm.

4712

Several months ago it didn’t work very well for me. But I tried it again with the browser method and it seems it’s pretty stable.

4713

For sure. I am not buying anything on Oculus that I can get on Steam. I just picked up ones that I have heard mentioned many times as go to VR experiences (Robo Recall and Stormland).

4714

This is the type of thing that may seem silly to some because it isn’t a ‘real’ game, but if the variety of building blocks and decorative options, customization, and flexibility and power of their system is good enough, it could be a total success. I can see people chilling out for hours in multiplayer building a cool looking place.

4715

If there were some kind of flipping/rental metalayer I could definitely get into something like that.

4716

Watch me playing Eleven TT against the AI (skill 30/100). If you notice that I play in a weird way, well, that’s me being a noob who haven’t played in real life to TT and I’m pretty sure playing against AI only taught me bad behavior (as at the level I play isn’t aggressive and has some blind spots).

4717

I skimmed around and saw your little squee at 5:11.

I notice you still miss some easy ones. I thought that was a bit odd when playing myself. It’s a good recreation but it’s not as intuitive and reliable as keeping your eye on the ball in real life.
