The new game mode and why it is one of the best additions to H3VR yet. (Potential Spoiler)
It is challenging and just really fun to play this new addition.

It feels like i've found the game mode that really makes H3VR shine.

First of all it makes usage of long ranges and short ranges.
At the begining, the enemies are far away, so you are forced to use a long range weapon.
When they come close a short ranged weapon comes in very handy.
This forces you to choose different weapons and thus makes good use of H3VR wide selection of firearms.

Since they come from three different directions it also makes use of the 360° element of room scale VR and is much more engaging than always looking forward.

Because this is so awesome and makes use of H3VR capabilites so well, it would be a really really good idea to expand on this gamemode. ( Wave mode with credit based weapon upgrades,Hot Dog Soldiers in breaching scenes, Stealth mission with usage of melee weapons, Military style missions(VIP rescue, VIP target, Sabotage)

Findings about the health of the enemies:

I think the little hot dog soldiers are quite tough, maybe too tough, here is why,

You need this many rounds to take one little hot dog soldier out :

- at least two bullets of Armor Penetrating rounds of 5.56x45 or
- 1-2 rounds of Armor Penetrating 7.62x39 or
- 1 round of Armor Penetrating 7.62x51

What do you think about the health values of the little hot dog soldiers, should Anton lower the health so that you need the same amount of bullets but they only have to be regular FMJ rounds instead of AP ?




@Anton:
I really really have to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the huge amount of work you put in and i hope you have a wonderful Meatmas. The two weapons you've added recently i really didn't expect. Soo much fun, i can't thank you enough.

Honestly, I love roguelike games and H3VR, so to see them married together is just... wonderful.

I imagine a roguelike version of the Arena where you're pitted against enemies and have to select one of three weapons, getting progressively harder the more rounds you survive (though cashing in for upgrades, new weapons and stuff by looting dead 'bots or trading in attachments and ammo)...

I can't see it happening any time soon but that sort of thing would be the tits!

Lel, i was refering to the first ever meatmas update that included NPC hot dog enemies for the first time which were wave based attacks by them on you, in that snow globe environment.

Also, thanks for resurrecting it again, Kanova. I thought there was something about the current Meatmas in here, and I'm fairly sure that's what you wanted.

Yeah, I know this thread is SUPER old. There is take and hold now, which is kinda what you described. Loot sosigs (the meat enemies) and choose weapons to buy with tokens you get from completing holds or smashing open crates.
