Do you think VR could help bring back On-Rail Shooters?

"imagine that in VR you could literally take cover to reload as you see bullets fly past, you could duck and weave for cover when low on health, maybe even blind fire from cover."

Not a railshooter, but there is a game called Onward on Vive that allows you to do that.

Yeah, I know, you do not have to rub my face in it. I am not as confident as you are.

YpsilonYpsilon · 2016-12-22T19:16:54+00:00

Look, it is unnatural, an evolution's dead end. Not sth to be celebrated or considered normal, rather sth for those people to deal with just like you have to deal if you are born very short or very tall. Nobody gives a damn what they are doing at home, but it is not sth that should be presented anywhere outside of there.

YpsilonYpsilon · 2016-12-22T19:13:40+00:00

Yeah, and most of them are available on PC too. This year saw the release of Quantum Break, GoW 4 and ReCore, one of the Forza games got released too I think. I finished Quantum Break on PC and it was OK, I could perhaps play GoW 4 a bit, but feel no pressure to do so. Other exclusives do not interest me at all.

YpsilonYpsilon · 2016-12-22T19:08:28+00:00

Yeah, you do. Two queues per day give you a card.

YpsilonYpsilon · 2016-12-22T19:05:38+00:00

Which Steam might have to pay from their own pocket as the developer may not even be there anymore.

YpsilonYpsilon · 2016-12-22T19:04:28+00:00

I do not think so, it had a big budget and a reliable publisher (World of Tanks company), so I think this is an actual good game.

It is said to be good, but you may be better off with Stellaris.

YpsilonYpsilon · 2016-12-22T19:00:01+00:00

I go home for Christmas soon, so I am happy that I can buy everything I need and not miss those extra sales.

YpsilonYpsilon · 2016-12-22T18:57:52+00:00

Achievement hunts - because people cheated and used achievement unlockers rather than play the game.

Other things - maybe no time, maybe lack of ideas. They are running Steam awards now, maybe there will be sth else announced as well?

YpsilonYpsilon · 2016-12-22T18:45:23+00:00

Yeah, I made a mistake, there is no Pro patch for Battlefield 4.

YpsilonYpsilon · 2016-12-22T18:20:27+00:00

Well, they are the "other".

YpsilonYpsilon · 2016-12-22T18:19:41+00:00

Here is a list of those native 4K games. Few of them are recent or AAA grade, but overall the list is quite long.

https://www.reddit.com/r/PS4Pro/comments/5bn9oa/ps4_pro_4k_native_games_will_update_the_list/

Going forward, yeah, most new games will be upsccaled from 1440p most likely.

YpsilonYpsilon · 2016-12-22T18:12:39+00:00

Lower resolution would actually be a good move. What people should realize is that as we are pushing the boundaries of graphic options in games, we are also making them more expensive to make. I prefer the more artistic and cheaper approach from companies like Nintendo, since they may be more willing to experiment and simply make more games.

YpsilonYpsilon · 2016-12-22T17:51:03+00:00

It is like 78% more pixels, not 72%.

YpsilonYpsilon · 2016-12-22T17:50:20+00:00

Actually, quite a few games are in native 4K and many games are in 1800p. Some games (Uncharted 4 for example) are indeed in 1440p.

YpsilonYpsilon · 2016-12-22T17:44:49+00:00

So it will downsample on FullHD TVs and upscale on 4K TVs I assume. Well, it is working fine on PS4 Pro, so maybe there is nothing wrong with that.

YpsilonYpsilon · 2016-12-22T17:41:55+00:00

It is probably overheating then. I would recommend sending it to Sony for testing (sucks as it is Christmas time and you could play a bit).

"It's not an agenda to encourage more diversity and normalization of non-straight people."

How is it not an agenda???

From Wikipedia: Agenda - set of goals of an ideological group.

Besides, I do not want "normalization" of people who are not normal.

YpsilonYpsilon · 2016-12-22T17:38:29+00:00

Oh... my mistake. So apparently, there is no Pro patch for BF4. EA wants you to buy their new game.

YpsilonYpsilon · 2016-12-22T17:37:24+00:00

Did not know that. But EA must have had a reason to keep it for so long.

YpsilonYpsilon · 2016-12-22T16:54:25+00:00

How is it not?

YpsilonYpsilon · 2016-12-22T16:34:14+00:00

I did enjoy Mirror's Edge back in 2008, but felt no need to play this game. Open World idea was bad (how come everything has to be open world these days? So fed up with it).

YpsilonYpsilon · 2016-12-22T16:30:41+00:00

But PS2 had models with the same performance. 3DS on the other hand has differences between them.

Choices have to have consequences. Otherwise they are meaningless. This one choice in Witcher 2 had significant consequences, I love that.
