what i really like about this guy is how he always talk about what is bad, but not just say it, he goes out of his way to point the problem and show other games and media that solved that same problem, really love you virtual bro, continue the good work
I feel so appreciated, thank you! Glad to know that you appreciate those connections with other games I make. I really just want to help make VR to be as great as possible, and it really helps if game developers take notes from each other!
@@VirtualBroVR i agree, and i am happy that you use the power that you have to help that to happen, it is crazy how new studios wont look at other works to see what they sould do and just port flat screem stuff to vr, and your work help to break that cycle, you bring the vision of the perfect game that the creators didnt even know they could achieve and every one gains with that, so i really wanna put forth my gratitude to your work and the future you are helping to shape for us all
Was a bit bummed to hear the steam version got delayed but by the time i heard of it it was already out with that discount so yea easy grab great game so far the climbing can be a bit jank tho
The aim in feature is a nice touch. Helps me know my sights ate actually lined up. Annddd the downhill knee sliding. The fact you keep going this game is doing it right!
you're my favorite/ only vr channel i check out. I've purchased broken edge, underdogs, ghosts of tabor and dungeons of eternity off of your videos and recommendations. I might do the same for this, though I'm a little iffy on vr shooters atm. Glad you're getting sponsorships to help to continue putting out quality content.
Lacked a jumpscare warning for Joe Rogan but great video, the last Battle Royale i experienced in VR was whatever the one in Rec Rooms called like 3 years ago so the whiplash of how much VR has advanced.
The captain America part was hilarious! 🤣😅 Great coverage of the game and thanks for a few tips too. It's awesome you add constructive criticism even in a sponsored video. Another reason why i love your channel! Respect 👊
You've gained a sub from me getting a quest 3 next month this and normal contractors will be my 1st buys black ops 1 zombies on VR omg can't believe I slept on this for so long 😂
Just got home from school, off to a great start so far (also something i wish they added was you have to rack the bolt of your gun off spawn, its just fun to do
Totally agree, needs a way to disable unnecessary tooltips. I also think the motion smoothing could be a lot better, especially since I have shakier hands than a lot of other people, it can be a bit hard for me to select UI elements when the weird laser pointer is shaking all over the place. Other than that, cool game.
Thanks for the video, I’ll have to check it out. Not usually a fan of BR games but this looks fun. Definitely glad it has a pc vr option too, feels like a lot of games for vr lately neglect the pc aspect.
Just don't go into it expecting any sort of visual uplift for PC. Everything, including the massively noticeable LOD changes which can lead to terrain shifting its geometry in major ways literally 10 meters in front of you, is the exact same as it is on Quest (or at least it was during the beta).
Had fun during the technical tests a month or 2 ago and the gameplay felt solid but there are a few things holding me back. Like you said, the insane amount of floating white text UI drove me insane during the tests. THIS IS A VR GAME. Almost every HUD element should be in world. I hate the cheap floating Iron Man Jarvis HUD (but in the worst way possible) in Ghosts of Tabor, and I can't stand it here. I HATE having the super flat, traditional, flatscreen hud just constantly in my vision. It seems stupid but this is kind of a deal breaker for me. I play VR to be immersed. The second thing is that the game is entirely reliant on holding a large enough playerbase. I just don't believe this game will have enough players to get into matches fast enough in the long term. I don't wanna spend $20 on something I won't be able to play quickly in a year or 2's time. I got tired of playing during the technical tests because there were like 4-8 minute downtimes between actual rounds. It's tiring when I'm sitting at my desk playing Warzone, but it actually just sucks when it's in VR.
Bought the game already, smoked and watched this while I got ready to play, see you out there boys. Love the Vids by the way, I keep having to buy VR games I see from you
This game looks sick! I hope it gets brought to psvr2 can't afford meta atm and I've always wanted a cod game on vr. I salute you lucky bastards from down under 😅
Meta kinda has a monopoly if we are being honest. Everyone else is so far behind in terms of software and library as well as the market share for the VR industry meta is in the lead and it's not even close. Although allowing other companies to produce hardware that uses the Meta Horizon OS is nice and will help with competition.
Thank you! All I did was record directly in my Quest 3. If you go to camera settings, I use the highest options for bit rate, frame rate, and I pick landscape mode.
Does this game have the same issue that Contractors has on standalone where when you first fire a gun or look through a scope the game tends to stutters a bit?
I like the game alot but I am just not a fan of all of the UI on my screen. I prefer I more minimalist type of hud with not too much going on so I can focus. Otherwise the game is really good.
I don't agree with if you don't like Battle Royale you won't like this game, I f**** HATE Battle Royale games until I played this game, every single one of them. I never even enjoyed Warzone, PUBG, Fortnite for one minute... once I crossed into VR, Battle Royale actually made sense with the immersion and realistic scenarios. All while the game is $19.99 BEFORE discount lol.. take my money.
Hey there. I'd like to give some feedback, as a viewer who's been with the channel pretty much since day one. I've questioned whether I should stay subscribed a few times now. The main reason for this is the stark dominance of sponsored videos on the channel. While I respect the hustle, I have a hard time taking your opinions on games seriously when they're paid for in 90% of cases. This video is a great example of why I feel this way, specifically the UI section. While I appreciate that you did criticise it, I feel like you've vastly underplayed how honestly terrible and unpolished this aspect of the game is. When I played the beta, every aspect of the UI immediately gave me the feeling that the studio behind this game really doesn't care about a good first impression. The general design of UI elements is all over the place, with no consistent visual language to guide the player through this absolute mess of menus. There were also major things wrong with it, like the gun stock calibration's global default setting either not working, or being terribly designed to the point it may as well be broken. Another incredible oversight was the lack of an option to separately control the audio levels of game SFX and voice chat, something which absolutely every multiplayer game should have. What really killed it for me, though, was the total lack of attention to the smaller things. It goes so far that there were even slightly different font sizes used for settings within the same scrollable menu section. How does that even happen in the first place? Within the same settings menu, the joystick scroll would only work when hovering the laser between menu items. Again, I ask myself, how did QA not pick up on this? Are these failures in the very basics of UI programming really what this studio is comfortable presenting to the world? The moment I stopped playing the beta was when I noticed that the background ambience of birds chirping in the woodland area was on a loop. Now, that of course isn't a problem in and of itself, but there was a single chirping sample within that loop which was FAR louder than all the other ones, and it got incredibly immersion-breaking over time. How this was allowed to be in a VR game, a medium whose biggest strength is immersion, is beyond me - especially because it would have been an insanely easy fix to simply lower the volume of that one f*cking bird. Keep in mind that I'm talking about the beta here, not the fully released game. They might have fixed most or all of the issues I've mentioned already. However, given the developer's track record with the original Contractors, I doubt this. The UI in that game is still horrendously unpleasant, and the issue I've mentioned earlier of not being able to separately control voice volume, such a fundamental thing to any multiplayer game, is still not addressed there, five years after release. In a nutshell: If you're a player who values a bit of polish in their games, I'd advise you to stay far away from this one. I realise that most of the things I've mentioned are nitpicks to the majority of people, but man, if they don't add up. To get back to the point I was making in the beginning: I wouldn't expect anyone to point out all these details in a video covering the game. However, when that video is sponsored, it really makes me question whether you just didn't notice these issues or they didn't bother you - or whether you didn't talk about them because you couldn't.
Hey thank you so much for the feedback! I definitely do tend to ignore a lot of the minor issues like you mentioned when playing early access versions of a game since often devs are already aware of them and working on fixes. But just to help clear things up, I never allow a sponsors to have creative control over my videos or script. The only time my clients are allowed to ask for changes is when something is factually incorrect! But truthfully my entire goal with this channel is to get more people excited about VR. So when an amazing game comes around willing to sponsor the content I’m already making, I happily agree. I am constantly declining sponsorship offers because true to my word, I am trying to only recommend the games that are truly noteworthy or worth your time. Sometimes that happens to be a game I’m super passionate about, but other times it’s a game that I know people will love even if I don’t. But I always make sure to make my opinion pretty clear I think! Still I’m always open to feedback so thank you for this comment! :)
Thank you for saying Asgards Wrath is over rated.... cause it is..... I keep telling ppl .... that skyrim VR set the standard for VR adventure/fantasy........everything else is tech demos...... i

With this channel, my goal is to recommend new or noteworthy VR games that I think you’ll love! As a VR enthusiast, these are exactly the kinds of videos I love to make, so if an awesome game wants to support what I already do, I’ll gladly say yes!
It’s honesty one of my favorite parts of the game. What do you think could be better about it? I definitely think it feels better than ghosts of tabor and population one…

This game is so addictive. Loving it.
Great video, subscribed!
When playing this masterpiece let us remember rec royale the true og VR battle royale.
I've heard way too much about this game before it released, yet I still felt the need to watch your video. I was not disappointed 😁
bro this game is so good definitely my favorite vr shooter along with contractors og
I'm level 35
if this is possible in VR, a battlefield type (you know, that isn't janky like that one old game) is possible too, we need battlefield VR.
Lacked a jumpscare warning for Joe Rogan but great video, the last Battle Royale i experienced in VR was whatever the one in Rec Rooms called like 3 years ago so the whiplash of how much VR has advanced.
Bro Im so glad I found your channel. Been looking to record vr content and you have so many great videos
The captain America part was hilarious! 🤣😅
Great coverage of the game and thanks for a few tips too.
It's awesome you add constructive criticism even in a sponsored video. Another reason why i love your channel! Respect 👊
got this right after seeing this video, its literally amazing
Faxs🔥
It's only $20? I'm getting this RIGHT now
Just wanted to remind you that your video about vr guns got me into into the radius
I’m so excited for the sequel…
The Swarm of Bees is actually the Zone in the Rec Room BR mode 😄
BEST VR RUclipsR EVER. LOVE THIS
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoy my vids :)
At first i wasn't sure but 1 minute in i already love it
Best contractor showdown video hands down 🔥
You've gained a sub from me getting a quest 3 next month this and normal contractors will be my 1st buys black ops 1 zombies on VR omg can't believe I slept on this for so long 😂
Best VR battle Royale hands down 👍
I love vicinity chat😂.it's almost like perk.....especially when kids playing. Free kills 😂
“This video sucks!” 😂
Glad I subscribed, I quite enjoy these, should I say, vr video essays. Cool stuff. :)
Just got home from school, off to a great start so far (also something i wish they added was you have to rack the bolt of your gun off spawn, its just fun to do
I totally agree! That way, in case you haven’t used a certain weapon before, you can figure out how it reloads before you get into a fight!
@VirtualBroVR I mean, yea that too 😅

Totally! I always feel bad recommending Quest exclusives bc I know a lot of PCVR users feel left out.
@@VirtualBroVRIt’s a shame as this was meant to be released on steam vr today but it will be at a later date.

once I get a vr I'll try most of the games you recommended lol
Most of the features remind me of Cod mobile BR, can’t wait to play this
Ok i need this like yesterday
Such a beautiful intro you did there sir. But seriously this game needs to come to the PSVR2 😭

Thanks for the sponsored #ad bro!
Thanks for the comment bro! Love your channel!
Can you hold a gun on your left hand ( I’m left handed) can u also explain what the weapon mount is in the settings
wait is 1 day old?
I've heard about it and just assumed is an old mod or something for contractors...
now i'm discovering things xD
This game looks sick! I hope it gets brought to psvr2 can't afford meta atm and I've always wanted a cod game on vr. I salute you lucky bastards from down under 😅
Let's not talk about how broken the vaulting is..
This game making me really want to buy a Quest 3.
it's good for vr that there is no monopoly here, games will get better and community will get bigger

Everyone else is so far behind in terms of software and library as well as the market share for the VR industry meta is in the lead and it's not even close.

JUST CONVINCED ME TO BUY THIS, as a VR dev i Need to do some research :)
i got this game becuse of this video
Where should I play this? I have a quest 3 and quest pro headset. Should I play it on steam or from oculus with/without link cable?
I just wish the ring was slower or they have an extraction mode.
Best VR GAME
How did you record this footage? Looks so good!
Thank you! All I did was record directly in my Quest 3. If you go to camera settings, I use the highest options for bit rate, frame rate, and I pick landscape mode.
I have a Quest 3, but you said this looks better on PCVR, you suggest getting it through the Steam over the Quest store?
Has anyone found that players not using a stock are at a disadvantage as the aim wouldn't be as steady?
Can you squad up so it's teams and last team standing wins or is it all individuals?
Does this game have the same issue that Contractors has on standalone where when you first fire a gun or look through a scope the game tends to stutters a bit?
Thx for the vid. Is this game crossbuy?
Having a blast with the game 🔥
That's awesome to hear! Me too!
@@VirtualBroVR 🫡thanks for the great videos
Are you playing with a gun stock?
I thought of that movie when I jumped in hahah
They should update the characters in contractors
Hows the game doing? Is it still alive?
I like the game alot but I am just not a fan of all of the UI on my screen. I prefer I more minimalist type of hud with not too much going on so I can focus. Otherwise the game is really good.
Does it have a solo play option? I suck at teamwork and I dont want to annoy anyone. This is the only thing holding me back to buy in.
Not yet!
Is it cross between PC and standalone?
not yet available on steam! it got delayed for PCVR
Just found out about this, that’s so disappointing. Hope PC players get access soon, this game is so fun
They resolved the issue, the steam version is out now too
Did you play this on the quest 3?
New follower
You play on quest 2 or 3
It’s pretty tubular
Can it be played solo or is it multiplayer only
0:58 why does it sound like you just killed Ronnie Radke😂
you and habie147 need to collab also great video 👍
Does this game have offline gameplay? Like... against bots? I'm from Brazil and i think the PING would not be enjoyfull for me.
its a billion times better than goofy ass population one, showdown has a solo mode now making it even better
Gunstocks don’t really work in the game, can’t adjust laterally and the default settings have the gun angled to the left.
It’s hard to trust a sponsored video
