By far my favorite VR game, i don't play VR very often but when i do VAIL is the first game i boot. It has a lot of potencial, just ignore the reviews saying that the game is dead beacause it's not the case, the game has far more players than it had before (specially with the release on Quest) and even when it had few players i still enjoyed the game, no vr fps games hits the same as VAIL to me. However i recomend turning off voice chat in public lobbies because it's infested with toxic kids sadly. And having part of the multiplayer (Vail combat) locked behind a pay wall is very strange. Considering i had to pay for the full game back then. So be aware that the game is not fully free to play. I marked this review as positive but the game has flaws, and if you dont want to be around "squeakers" then i would recomend playing other VR FPS games. but if you dont mind the problems mentioned above go for it because the game itself is fun. If the playerbase was more mature and Vail Combat was cheaper or even free i think this game would be in a better place than it currently is.

I dropped vail for some time due to PC issues (RAM was crapping out on me) but now that I'm back it's better than ever. New social hub, new market, improved gameplay, just overall an awesome game. These devs just keep delivering

VAIL VR is essentially an attempt to make a CS style shooter in VR. It does the job rather well, but also inherits a lot of the same inherent tired design. The grey maps and gameplay can sometimes feel a little too borrowed from the past. The devs pride themselves on superior netcode, latency and polished gameplay. While the gameplay is certainly up there with the best VR shooters. The game suffers from certain netcode issues, and inconsistencies with reload mechanics that keep it from being the very best it could be. Nonetheless, VAIL is one of the better VR shooters. ---{ Graphics }--- ☐ Kayak VR: Mirage ☐ Beautiful ☐ Good ☑ Passable ☐ Bad ☐ Rec Room VR ---{ VR Gameplay }--- ☐ Vertigo 2 ☐ Amazing ☑ Decent ☐ Uninspired ☐ Watch paint dry instead ☐ *Takes off headset* ---{ Audio / Soundtrack }--- ☐ Eargasm ☐ Very good ☑ Good ☐ Passable ☐ Bad ☐ Tinnitus ---{ Audience }--- ☐ Grandma ☑ Adults ☑ Teens ☑ Quest kids ---{ Performance }--- ☐ Could run on your microwave ☑ Will run on most gaming systems ☐ Needs a fast PC ☐ RTX 6090, RYZEN 9950X3D, 128GB RAM with DLSS 69 and FrameGen v50.1 ☐ VRChat ---{ Game Size }--- ☐ Floppy Disk ☐ Workable ☑ Average ☐ Big ☐ Will eat away at your 1TB hard drive ☐ You will need to invest in a black hole to hold all the data ---{ Difficulty }--- ☐ Move your thumb stick to walk ☐ Easy ☐ Easy to learn / Hard to master ☐ Significant brain usage ☑ The game is in fact, playing you ☐ Dark Souls ---{ Grind }--- ☐ Nothing to grind ☐ Only if u care about stats ☐ Isn't necessary to progress ☐ Average grind level ☑ Too much grind ☐ More hours than VRChat ---{ Story }--- ☑ Not a story game ☐ Very little ☐ Uninspired ☐ Good ☐ Interesting! ☐ You forget the headset on your face ---{ VR Jank}--- ☐ Valve is that you??? ☐ Polished ☑ Better ☐ Average ☐ Boneworks ☐ Literally unplayable ---{ Game Time }--- ☐ 20$ 5 minute VR experience from the Meta store ☐ Short 1-2h ☐ Average 2-5h ☐ Long (+10h) ☑ No inherent limit ☐ Time Machine ---{ Price }--- ☐ It's free! ☐ Worth the price ☐ If it's on sale ☑ If you have spare cash ☐ I wouldn't ☐ You could also just burn your money ---{ Bugs }--- ☐ Never heard of ☐ Minor bugs ☑ Can get annoying ☐ ARK: Survival Evolved ☐ The game itself is a big terrarium for bugs ---{ ? / 10 }--- ☐ 1 ☐ 2 ☐ 3 ☐ 4 ☐ 5 ☐ 6 ☑ 7 ☐ 8 ☐ 9 ☐ 10
