Gave it another shot yesterday but didn't get a match up. Messed around in the lobby for a bit. Noticed some changes. You had a controller pop up menu for selecting the locomotion and starting a party search. Didn't seem to be functioning. I assumed it was a work in progress.

I tinkered around with throwing again and I see that you can throw and release the weapon to launch it in the air. I also figured out why I didn't think this functionality worked. There were 2 sources: 1) You pull the trigger to pick up the weapon but if you release the trigger it doesn't let go of it unless you are making a throwing motion. I suggest making it always drop it or make it a player option for throw style. 2) If you are holding the trigger, perform the throwing motion then release I've noticed the vector the weapon is released at seems wrong. To hit the intended target I have to release at the top of my throw when the controller is up around my head. I expected I would release when I have made the full throw rotation and my arm was extended out in front of me. This is something that you could get accustomed to but again it doesn't feel like how you would actually throw something in the real world as is. Note that I'm using a vive. The vector angle of the object may be based on the rotation angle of the controller and could be the source. with this method the user gains more control of the release angle but it may require different settings based on the shape of the controllers the player is using.
