If the dev team at Drifter is still around, they should update this, enhance it for modern VR headsets and relaunch it with a big update somehow. Contact VR Content Creators etc... Because: It is freaking amazing, After the Fall is nothing against this. More weapons, TONS of upgrades for your character, for every weapon, shooting range is basically an arcade game in itself. Nice graphics, EA was 2017 full release 2018 I cant believe how I have missed out on this game. Roughly 5 bucks on sale is insane, go grab it. I have played it using the Quest 2 wireless, which works flawless. But I have heard it does not play well with Index Controllers. Alright, gotta head back in. Edit. The multiplayer does work, I was in the open lobby with a random guy and a friend. I was able to join the random guy on his already running mission. Later I did play a map with my buddy, no problems at all.
Kinda like "Destiny" in VR, at least it kinda reminds me of that game. This has very good performnace, good variety of weapons, which are upgradeable. One of the most underrated games in VR i think. It has its issues, Enemies AI isnt the best, but its varied enough to make them feel different and take different approaches to each one. Movility is amazing, jumping around the map feels great. Coop works great, customization options are nice, but really the game is fun! Recommended!
Having a great time with this game. Been mostly playing Co-op and those battles can get intense! Kinda reminds me of the old movie "Starship Troopers." I haven't had any problems with movement or some of the other problems I saw reported. I was looking for a game to play Co-op that had enough variety and action. At this point I only have about 15 hours in, so I still have some levels to check out and some weapons to try. The levels look great in VR. If you have a fear of heights, this game can take you to your limits. Some of the levels get pretty high up. But been so busy killing bugs that you don't think about it much. Great fun to go in with a partner and plan a strategy of attack! For me, well worth the $30 price tag.
7.8 out of 10 I have mixed feeling on Gunheart. Great graphics, decent selection of weapons, and loot to buy upgrades and cosmetics. Weapons level up through use in combat and there's a ton of ammo mods to find enabing you to customise all your loadout. This adds an element of morerish replayability grind to the whole game in quest to unlock all the mods. Where the game isn't so good is the combat, specifically the enemy have a tendancy to behave in a Command & Conquer rush attack. That's fair enough for the melee enemy. But gun totting enemy like to run right up to you and blast you in the face, often in a large pack. The enemy AI just isn't quite right. You come across some large open areas which I haven't really explored during combat. The enemy rush at you at the entrance to the area and you simply fight them there. Once cleared you just travel through an empty large area which would have been an exciting battleground. The levels are reasonably large but linear. You're basically going in one direction to reach the end of the level so you never really feel that you're making any descisions. Each level is collection of segments, that begin with the spawn point should you die. You need to clear the area before the next section (segment) unlocks. These artificial barriers makes the levels feel like a wave shooter. The 9 levels is about 5-6 hours of gameplay. The early levels are simple, and become more interesting and challenging later on. Which is a shame as Gunheart feels like it's beginning to hit it's stride at in the final couple of levels. Overall level design is a mixed bag, parts of levels can come across a bit samey because of the limited texture variety and the linear path. There's a host of side mission challenges outside of the main story levels adding a few more hours of original gameplay. So you get a decent amount of content and replay value. As VR titles goes you're getting a good amount of playtime value for your money. The enemy behaviour and level design does hold back Gunheart from being a must have VR game. My score heavily reflects this. Despite that I have enjoyed the game but at the same time I wouldn't miss it if I never played it again. 30 minutes exercising in VR [url=steamcommunity.com/groups/30minvr] STEAM Group / [url=https://steamcommunity.com/groups/30minvr#curation] STEAM Curator
