Amazing game except for that one level I play where it crashes. A plea to other developers; DO WHAT CROTEAM HAS DONE !!!
FINALLY a reason for me to have bought the Vive. Enough of the poorly optimized and silly stuff that has dominated VR. This game ROCKS !!! No plot who cares. You are immersed and fighting for your life. What a riot !!!
Before this game I was ready to sell my VIVE. now I am already planning my next VR machine build when the newer games and\/or hardware comes out.
A full game with fantastic action and a real sense of immersion. I have played it for many hours now and its a no brainer, it seriously works. I play with comfort mode turned off and no teleportation. By sitting on an old piano stool (finally a use for that too) that rotates my motion sickeness is pretty much gone. You simply spin on the stool to turn and navigate with the left thumpad and pointing your left weapon. I can really rock with this setup the action and mobility is beyond expectation. turning with the right trackpad in analog mode will make you sick, so I just use discrete turning with that (45\/90 degree sort of thing). !
For someone who has refused to play a game that is not Nvidia 3d vision (thank you Helix Mod) for many years now, I can assure you that this is a totally compelling experience. It performs amazingly well and the graphics are very satisfying. Considering the low res of the VIVE this game is still eye candy,
I am running 2 980ti cards overclocked in sli, and this game runs on ultra+ with no stutter. It is running both cards at about 50percent each. Sli seems to be working fine. So happy to finally be able to use my hardware properly.
After my experience with this game, I went right out and paid full price for the remainder of the package to support Croteam. I was hesitant at first to buy any of these as most VR games I have bought or tried were a total dissapointment. I have returned a good number of turkeys.
These games are totally worth full price to me. No questions asked.
Cannot say enough about Croteam, they really know how to develop software.
BUY THIS GAME. SUPPORT CROTEAM.
G.. Totally rubbish game not to be taken seriously. Enjoy it for what it was designed for - total arcade mayhem with almost no story or purpose. Gets better if you have good buddies to play it with.. Out of the 3 VR SS games this ones the best. If you have never played a SS game before think of it kind of like the old DOOM games. just tons of enimies pooring on top of you while you run and gun. A very simple but very fun and intense game. There is some thing just so enjoyable about mowing through what seems like 100 enimies at once with 2 shotguns out. The game has a very nice selection of weapons. As for story there really isnt much of one or any really. Which isnt what you really want in this kind of game any way.
The VR works great in this kind of game with plenty of options for VR controls. Thank god it has smooth turning and movement. To me thats the only way to play VR. I do wish i didnt have to go intot he VR options and turn off the VR safe turn mode every time i turn on the game. Really not much i can complain about outside of that. Its a perfect VR port of a classic game and is probably my favorite VR game so far. I would say $40 is a bit to high for this game as it is a pretty old game but if you catch it on sale I'd go for it. Its about just over 9 hours long with the DLC. So for 20-$25 go for it. I'd recomend the SS bundle when its on sale for all 3 SS VR games. I picked it up over Halloween for $40 and was well worth it.
Now i just hope DD brings us SS3 in VR. That will replace this as my favorite VR game if they do.. I once saw YouTubers play slow paced VR horror demos on the Oculus Rift DK1 back in 2012. While watching them, THIS was the fantasy VR game that glimmered in the back of my head. I knew this new technology would one day let me fall into a world with rich, varied environments to explore (and be rewarded for exploring), quick movement, tonnes of bad guys and a sh*tload of weaponry at my disposal. I'll be honest, I've never played anything from the Serious Sam series before owning VR, but this was one hell of an introduction to say the least.
I just want to say thank you to the guys at CROTEAM for taking the time out to do this for VR. In a market full of wave shooters, teleportation and slower paced full locomotion, this was exactly the itch I needed to scratch. Now for my list.
PROS:
- FULL LOCOMOTION... need I say more?
- Great, old school arena styled fast paced shooting.
- A crap-load of weapons. Pistols, shotguns, sub-machine guns, chainsaws and even giant cannons are all dual wieldable and make you feel totally bad*ss.
- Rich and varied environments that you feel inclined to explore for hidden gems.
- Online multiplayer and co-op support.
CONS:
- You may feel uneasy during and after first few sessions. THIS DOES GO AWAY!
- Cutscenes are buggy and crash the game if I try to pull up the weapon menu.
- 1 second long loading screens sometime come up when moving between environments. Can be annoying when in the middle of a shootout.
UPDATE SUGGESTIONS:
- Perhaps a player movement speed slider option to compensate for both first time players and elites.
- Option to turn off thumb stick rotation (I know there is one but it resets to right thumb every time I restart game)
- Maybe the jungle environment on the main menu screen could change up as you progress through the game?
Not much else for me to say. I f*cking love this game and can't wait to finish this review to jump back into it.. Perfect VR implementation.
For anyone who isn't sure, I'll put this at the top of my review: This is the FULL game. This is not a rail shooter or a standing still, wave-based, or tower-defense game. You fully explore, strafe, platform, and blast your way through this whole game.
I think this is an excellant example of how we don't need VR games. We just need games that are in VR.
The Price point is worth it, expecially if you've never played a Serious Sam game before. Great action. Great gunplay. The dual wielding is not only fun as hell, but strategic. You can keep your pistol in one hand to handle weak enemies, and your rocket launcher in the other to handle the big ones.
The menu is wonderful, fast, and intuitive. Selecting weapons feels good, and maybe more importantly, the quick save is very fast and fluid. Might even be easier than pressing a function key.
Same old Serious Sam action, which really proves that the fast paced gameplay of games like this, or hypothetically, for example, Quake, can work delightfully in VR.
Appropriately includes multiple options for locomotion. Looks to only have several types of teleporting, and "Classic" slide movement, though. No Climbey-style arm swinging. (But who would want that anyway? Wouldn't be able to aim your guns while running.) The classic sliding puts you into tunnel-vision while moving to prevent motion sickness by default. The tunnel-vision effect is called "Comfort Mode" in the options and that can also be turned off if you don't need it.
Beyond the VR features (Which are ideal) this is still just good ol' Serious Sam. Same weapons, levels, and enemies. Tons of fun and timeless gameplay.
If you're looking for the VR game that's going to give you something meatier than 15 dollars Wii Sports remakes and room escape games, here's the one.. Honestly in my top 3 picks for favourite VR games, and I have many. This does guns right. They feel good, they look good. You can choose a variety of options for movement from teleport to locomotion with a variety of motion-sickness options.
Tons of enemies. Tons of levels. Hours to beat. Haven't beaten it. Ramps up in difficulty nicely.
-Actually laughed out loud many times while playing it I was having that much fun.
-Made me good at shooting left handed (and realize how bad I was at it)
-Kill aliens like a badass
Negatives? None.
