Farpoint PSVR Gameplay

Skewed and Reviewed have posted some early in the game video from their first session with the new PSVR game Farpoint. Even early in the game it is clear that this is a must own for PSVR users.

I need to figure out why it is not uploading in a better resolution. We have great downloads here but lousy uploads.
I had not played on the PSVR in a few weeks and was a bit disorienting. Unlike most of the other games for it, this one is best not played sitting down as you need to give the camera a full body angle and after 30 min or so you want to take a break. But looking forward to more.

Awesome! How is it so far? Is it very immersive? I've been on the fence about it.

I am only about 30 min in. I did not like that I had to watch the whole intro as I would have been happy to get right to the action. I am going to have to move the table around in the front room as it does require more space than other PSVR games and you have to stand further away. The grid lines you see in the video are the game telling me I am going out of frame. It asks how tall you are and I said 6'4 and also moved the camera from in front of the tv to the top of it but it had issues still. I think in time a game like this that you could co-op would be a really good idea. For now it was fun.

I have one. We have a pro and a regular one. The Pro was used for an early version of Ghost Recon Wildlands and the video was off on that as well. I may ty COD Zombies on the Pro in a few.

Farpoint Studio Tease Cryptic Message for Upcoming VR Game

Its due for release later this year.

PrimeVinister1197d ago

Farpoint VR may be surpassed by other VR first-person shooters in the future but it is an important part of the genre's development in VR.

I mean HL: Alyx is probably the best representation of first person implementation into a VR game to date. But it's exciting to see what's on the horizon. I will particularly be interested in the next gen version of PSVR to see what sorts of new interactions we can get with the controller

Abnor_Mal1197d ago

Farpoint was a great shooter with the Aim controller on PSVR, I'm excited to see what the studio is doing next and if its another shooter that will use the Aim again.

"There’s also no mention of what platforms it’ll support, presumably PlayStation VR will get a look in as Farpoint was exclusive to the headset. But there have been fewer and fewer for Sony’s device. With a 2021 launch window, VRFocus would expect an Oculus Quest version due to its popularity."

Sony just announced today five to six new games that will be releasing this year, so the idea of fewer and fewer games on the device is not correct, and there are a good set of games. Whether the game is exclusive or not it would be welcomed either way. How many Oculus Quest HMDs have been sold to date, and are they close to or already closed the lead of Sonys headset?

Games are subjective I guess. But this list is weak. Some of the titles named aren't that good. I could have came up with a better list. And some of the best and latest releases aren't even on this list.

Article could have been better.
