VR support?

[Mythion]

Are there any plans to implement VR support, even at a later date? This looks awesome and so close to being setup for VR!

Either way it's a purchase, the game looks great and I hope we get VR support!

+1. I though it was already VR that's why i clicked on it.

Definitely needs VR. Automatic buy for me if it has it, otherwise probably not.

Just under TWO percent of Steam users report having a VR headset. Perhaps you misread the stats, as about 40% of people with VR headsets have an Oculus Quest. No idea where you'd get 40% from if it wasn't that.

Okay, negative Nelly. And those who DO have VR are passionate about it, and tend to play games exactly like this one in VR. They also have more disposable income to blow on things like VR headsets as well as take chances on games such as this one. So what if only two percent of Steam users have VR headsets. That's only one narrow metric. What percentage of games support VR? I'm guessing less than two percent. In that case, wouldn't this game be capitalizing on an underrepresented market by adding VR capability? Yes, it is a niche market. But it is growing. And Elite Dangerous and American Truck Simulator have a sizeable following of VR users. This game seems to be a blend of those two games, and would likely be an insta-purchase for VR fans of those games.

For my part, I fall into that category.

I for one would love to see this with VR support

Does anyone know what graphics engine is used, perhaps Unreal Engine 4/5?

Heh, I had the same thought. If it's Unreal 4/5, we may be able to play it in VR whether the developer adds support or not. Here's hoping!

I do as well, and I'd love it if this game had VR - here's hoping it's UE4/5 so we can do it ourselves.
I fully support the idea that this game would be great in VR but more importantly I support the dev's right to decide for themselves. It's all very well saying that if they made the game VR it would get huge support from those 2% of Steam users (and it would) but you could make a VR game that would get that support as well but you aren't, and you probably wouldn't be happy if dozens of people made a thread demanding that you do. Because you've chosen to do something else.

👍 VR!

[Kinky Jalepeno]

Instant purchase with VR support - no interest in pancake mode.

[Ryker]

Oh god please.... VR

I'm not saying that the developer has to conform to my opinion. All I'm doing is showing my support for the platform. Feedback which the developer may or may not find useful. Same as the guy whom I was providing a counterpoint for was trying to diminish the impact of VR.

Also presumptuous of you to assume that I am not involved in VR game development. Lol. Granted, my role is just a voice actor. But I have appeared in VR games.

VR support would be amazing, along with full HOTAS support. But even without those, I love this idea and this is a day one buy for me. Even if I can only use an Xbox controller this looks like it's gonna be a good time!

Still, absolutely +1 for VR support!
