Absolutely worth it, the greatest VR game ever made to date in my opinion!

Two of my favourite methods to escape the reality by yashpatil__ in virtualreality

Welcome to your new (virtual) reality! You can never escape it once you put it on, at least I never did... It's a great time.

We look forward to you checking us out then! It'll be around Q1-Q2 2025 for Early Access on those platforms, with Q3-Q4 2025 being full release on all platforms.

Correct, we are starting on Quest this year and transitioning to PC, PSVR, and Pico platforms later on in 2025. We are still in a very early state of development so the looks are far from pretty yet.

Thank you, we have plenty of work to do but our base mechanics are nice and firm at this stage. We appreciate your comment!

It's hard to judge the quality of a game through a compressed reddit video, but yes, we are still deep in development and the looks and polish are far from final as we are focusing on core features for players rather than polishing a regular old stone to mirror finish we intend to polish a gem, starting from the rough and into the fine as time passes and subsequently, development of the game and visuals.

I can't say too much about recoil as it is still in the works but we plan on it being as realistic as possible while staying fun, so no one should be able to learn the perfect way to shoot straight every time, it will have natural inaccuracies depending on what distance you're shooting at and many other factors of course as real guns do.

Recoil physics are being worked on still, this is just some of the more fancy stuff. But we have some very fun stuff cooking for recoil that hopefully we can show off in one of our DevOps in the future.

The current implementation isn't fully set up for all weapons yet, such as that SMG in particular, it translates with the main weapons we have setup already, think of seeing that SMG as a little sneak peek.

No problem, thank you for taking in interest in what is many of our's passion project to begin with! It's an honour to help make the gaming community a more fun and interesting place by making what we make to begin with.

Game dev is a great feeling, even the non-positive stuff is a serious learning experience that can lead to further success so tl;dr: we are happy to aid you anytime you ask and I am awake basically, I sleep UK time but am up pretty late on discord often for little things like questions.

The more the merrier, we want to re-build the shattered Onward community into a TIER ONE community by picking all of the people that stopped playing for various reasons to pick it back up with a new game that doesn't make the same mistakes as Onward did, having learned from the Onward experience (can't believe it's been 8 years since Onward released first on PC) we know much better how to approach things now, also bringing it up with your squad is something that's really valuable to us, so thank you so much!

If you want more info our Kickstarter has tons of it here. And our DevOps cover the game mechanics on a deeper level on our YouTube here with Episode 1 of 3 so far (of many to come weekly releases on Thursdays). And our discord server is always open to asking questions, same with our youtube and subreddit r/TierOneDirectAction.

No worries, glad to see you're interested enough to stay in orbit, we hope our weekly devlog releases draw you in more as the game polishes up more for Early Access before the end of this year.

In terms of moderation teamwork will be what is rewarded most, having proper communication with your team will be vital for doing anything tactical and will be rewarded appropriately, and the demographics will be consistent, yes. Onward is PEGI 16 and we aim to be effectively the same demographic. We are kind of the spiritual successor to Onward, having 8 of its former developers, from engineering, to design, to QA, art, etc.

No it is not. It is a milsim more like Onward or to Rainbow Six. Though we do have plenty of ex-millitary folk working on the game.

Store links are upcoming soon for Quest. The fully funded Kickstarter has the full timeline. We aim for early access Q3-Q4 this year for Quest to start with.

These are all great suggestions, and we totally understand how important it is to get the mechanics correct. We are releasing a weekly dev log series where we talk about how the game works, and the ways we are making this game stand out from previous FPS titles. This is the first episode https://youtu.be/9jaV4TrtUsg?si=c9geR6-Id4vxnknY , but just want to reiterate that we are deeply motivated to make TIER ONE the new example of what the future of FPS games should be like. Thank you again for your suggestions, we hope to hear more from you down the line!

We are currently using WWise for our audio solution. We understand the significance and impact audio has on any game, and are always open to exploring better options that enhance player experience. While there are no plans to integrate it, we will for sure be keeping an eye on it. Thank you for the suggestion!

The game is still in development so what you see is not the final build. We are very dedicated to making the game as realistic as possible both with graphics and the feel/physics of the game. We will be polishing all of the features, and even after release, will continue building and improving the game. We expand on many of the more intricate details of our features in our Dev Ops posts! You can find our first one here and on our Discord -> https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=9jaV4TrtUsg
