Serious Sam VR: The Last Hope (VR only | Steam Early Access this summer)

[Zeo]

About the game:

It is the period of the first Mental War. Earth's defense forces are crumbling under the hordes of the vicious Mental. He managed to break the will of many nations by destroying the ancient shrines of the domestic people. A fearless EDF general, Sam 'Serious' Stone, is leading the resistance from the battlecruiser 'BC Saratoga' in a desperate attempt to save the galaxy.

Key Features at Early Access Launch:

• VR and chill – Play as Sam 'Serious' Stone in VR! See the galaxy, meet interesting aliens – and frag 'em all. Serious Sam VR: The Last Hope (a.k.a. SSVR) is the perfect VR game! No singing, no dancing. Just shooting and humming to the energizing and moody tunes of your guns blazing.
• All aboard! – Select your mission on the command deck of the batllecruiser Saratoga and get ready to drop down to planet's surface; the action starts immediately!
• The bigger they are – Battle over 2 different planets with multiple levels, ending with 2 different bosses. The bigger they are, the harder they fall, as Sam wades his way through the invading horde using a vast number of guns and power-ups, including his mighty pirate cannon.
• Guns. Lots of guns! - Sam must pick the right weapon for the job – some enemies are tougher, or just different and more resilient to certain type of damage than others – and defend the local populace.
• Mental's hordes – Hordes of enemies, new and old, are pouring over the planets, all across the universe. Sam has already defeated some of them in battle, and knows them all too well. Others will rear their big, ugly head for the first time. Sam will not discriminate.
• Upgrades and Power-ups – Fully equipped armory is at Sam's disposal aboard the battlecruiser 'Saratoga'. Upgrade your gear between the missions.
• Seriously fun – Saving the universe can be a daunting and tedious task, but here's Sam to save the day; it's more fun when he does it, the way he does it. It's (mostly) by shooting aliens in the face.
• Early Access – we're working around the clock to bring SSVR to fans as soon as we can. So we decided to pull a Death Star – the game will be operational and available this Summer (and hopefully won't explode when released on Early Access), achieving it's full potential hopefully by end of the year.

- No DM ? - Silly to ask. Wait for SS4

lθl no walking

[GraphX of GZ wow]

lθl no walking

i cry out loud too, but it makes you motion sick when you're moving in game and stand irl

[AmcoTraD]

i heard from different testers you're gonna lose motivation after 10 minutes

Weren't there those pads like the Omni that let you walk in real life to move in VR? (though you're still standing in place) I guess actual FPS in VR is still a ways off.

yes and yes

Sam was rated best VR game of the E3 if i'm right, maybe we could give it a chance someday... when VR will have some real interest and be affordable at decent price.

[AmcoTraD]

if you want decent VR Equipment you gotta spend like 1600€ minimum atm


that doesn't really sound affordable to the average customer, that stupid vive should cost 300€ max

[Zeo]

I'm wonderin' what does "minimum 970" mean - it totally won't run on 960, or will work with lags / freezes ? Maybe in lower res
And yeah we need to wait some years until it becomes cheap enough to see it in every house, like a tv, a phone, a vacuum cleaner and so on
Maybe in 2020

I hope it will include Serious Editor aswell, and some badass modders will find the way to convert those levels (where is no Egypt) to SS3

the GTX 960 does not support VR - supported models are listed on nvidia and amd websites

VR is supported by highend graphics cards only

meh, it's what it's gonna cost soon, once all pigeons will have bought it xD

Look at 4K TVs, they came out almost 2 years ago at 4000 € and now you get those 120+cm for barely 500€ lol
