VR Editions: Yay or Nay

[227]

Yeah, part of me suspects that the first-person perspective might be to keep that door open if it suddenly takes off, though I doubt they currently have any plans in that regard (more likely, their focus after launch will be either multiplayer, DLC/expansion stuff, or a combination of both).

Not really interested in VR, myself. There are too many genres where it's rendered pointless, and my caveman instincts clash with the idea of strapping things to my face that blind me to predators. It's probably here to stay regardless, but not in a mainstream, replacing-normal-gaming kind of way. More likely, it'll exist as a viable platform for indie devs to experiment and get seen without being buried by 10 million asset flips and low-effort pieces of garbage on Steam and sustain itself that way.

I know what you mean. I'm a bit paranoid myself lol I have family who would probably take the opportunity to scare the shit out of me -.-

 

[TheShift]

Leek Much?

Yes.. bring on the VR. Please.

Even if its just a mode.. or maybe in certain areas if you have VR you can throw on the gear and experience an area or something on those lines.
An entire game dedicated to VR is never going to happen. Would be killer though

 

[Yuli-Ban]

Exactly my own thoughts! There's no better game for VR than Cyberpunk 2077.
I, for one, already plan to wear a headset, fall asleep, and then use the five to ten minutes of "full immersion" upon waking to truly experience the game as it should be felt.

To those who may not quite understand what I'm talking about— there's a peculiar phenomenon that occurs when people accidentally go to sleep while still wearing VR headsets. When they wake up, their minds do not fully register that they are still in a virtual environment, leading them to believe that everything around them is real!

very cool

It doesn't even have to be perfect.
I wonder how well would vorpx work when half the game is first person and the cutscenes are third person.

 

[Gillian_Seed]

I'm one of the ones who wants TPP but I'll admit, a cyberpunk game of this quality in VR would practically ensure I would purchase a VR unit.

 

[JMFruitSalad]

I think it would just pull away from the players perspective for cutscenes, and disable camera interaction.. I haven't used VR myself, beyond Google cardboard, but the biggest limitation seems to be player movement, you have Bethesda experimenting with "teleportation" mechanics lately, but that seems a bit crap. I wouldn't mind a point and click type setup, where the character will walk in real time towards a waypoint marker.

 

[Ch1nz]

you can move normally in skyrim and fallout VR which is a lot better then the clanks teleportation movement.


This game in VR would be absolutely insane, I would immediately buy it and force everyone I know to buy a VR unit and this Game

On a serious note, please consider it CDPR, a cyberpunk game which focuses a lot on VR in its own game world just needs a VR port.

 

[warbaby2]

...I wonder what net running would be like in VR... VR-ception? PFFFFAAAAANNNNN!

 

[Azriel7]

I would kill for VR support. Anybody play skyrim in VR? Especially on the vive? It is mind blowing amazing, and so much better than flat screen VR. If it is possible, PLEASE CDPR give us VR support!

 

[DerNeo]

I play Skyrim VR too and its f***king awesome. Cyberpunk is the best game for VR support

 

[WMORGAN12]

My Opinion, here. I think this is one of the main reasons, on the FPP choice. They did say , this game will be ready for the future and future hardware...… Maybe VR?

 

[sv3672]

I think they meant the next generation consoles, the game could be re-released on those with improved visuals and/or frame rate.

 

[Vhalyr]

Imho, VR is not ready for games like this. Sure, it would be epic and very immersive, but:

1) it would require mad hardware specs
2) it would suffer from the issues of VR devices (visor too heavy, for instance, which contributes to motion sickness), not to mention the obvious inability of walking around without a treadmill (although this could partially be solved by software such as ''natural locomotion'')

 

[Vagelis4VP]

I dont know why...but i got a picture in my mind that In the future they will make a multiplayer VR version of Night City, where people meet..explore or do missions together.

I'd buy a VR version of night city even if all I could do was walk around, hang out in bars, explore etc.

Sounds like a dream to me.

I dunno, I can run TW3 and Skyrim/Fallout 4 quite nicely in vorpX, and I don't have that crazy hardware...

 

[TheShift]

Resident Evil for VR imo is the best use of the tech so far..farpoint as well
Both games just move so fluently one with the controller the other with the gun

This game screams some sort of implantation

Elite Dangerous had some glorious VR too, esepcially when paired with a HOTAS... and there where a couple Japanese games... *cough*
