It's a cool game, but no one ever plays it, all you will be doing is playing deathmatch with AI.
All I can say is wow, This game was alot of fun, the physics, the shooting, the throwing and its f'en hilarious to play. Got to play with the dev a bit tonight, was one of the funnest nights of VR.
Cowbots & Aliens is a multiplayer saloon brawler set in an old-western town filled with Robots and Aliens. It's an absolute blast and does a lot of things beautifully that other VR games fail miserably at. If you like the Paintball mode in Rec Room, but are left wanting a lot more, this game is for you. First of all, the physics in this game are absolutely fantastic. Most VR games suck when it comes to object collisions, but C&A nails it. Every object reacts realistically, and there are tons of objects to interact with. You can flip over tables for cover, grab chairs and use them as a shield until they break apart, then use one of the broken off chair legs as a weapon, or just chuck shot glasses and broken bottles. Of course there's guns too, but the improvised weapons are a lot more fun. You can open every door and move anything on a hinge, even bash someone's head in with the flip-up counter. It's all totally intuitive. There's lots of fun objects, like a piano, horshoes, and a car...
[h1]Experienced on the Meta Quest 3[/h1] You can view my video here: nope, doing a video would only show how out-dated the game really is I don't know why Chicken Waffle / Wizard Games Inc. are releasing this now on December 24, 2023. This is a game you de-list from Steam, not release out of Early Access. This was a good VR game back in 2017. There weren't very many good online multiplayer pvp shooters in VR back then and in this one you could pick up knives, beer bottles, etc. and throw them or even pick up a chair and block stuff with it. It was innovative. However, now in 2023, this game is out-dated and nobody is playing it. Although it has full locomotion (with smooth & snap turning options), you really have to use teleport. Enemies can simply teleport their way out of danger so you have to wait until they land in their teleport landing spot as there is a delay to when they can teleport again. The gun mechanics are all very simple. They have awful toy-like sights, and they have...
I have yet to be able to play a game with anyone but I spent over half an hour just teleporting around and interacting with everything I could get my hands on. The game is beautiful. I realized that the moment it was booting up and I saw a giant crisp intro graphic. Pros: - BEAUTIFUL - No bugs or crashes so far - Several wearpons scattered around to play with in the town square - INTERACT WITH ALL THE THINGS - Shank someone with a broken bottle - Several game modes keep things interesting Cons: - Not enough people own this game. - Needs more maps - No one playing right now (not the developer's fault of course) I just played my first match with someone last night. I ran out of weapons and we started throwing shot glasses at each other. It ended with him charging me with an empty mug and me picking up a chair and killing him by smashing him over the head with it. This game is seriously impressive and the many options for weapons, including enviromental objects, puts this curren...
No one plays this game and it's meant to be played with others. Judging by the time I've spent messing around with bots I don't think it would be much fun with others anyway.
Simple multiplayer shooter/brawler. Not a lot of players, but you can fight boots if not enough players are on.
This is without a doubt my favorite VR game. It's extremely fun. It's lacking players a bit now, but once I got in a few games I was totally hooked. It's simplistic, the controls are intuitive, but It is without a doubt the best multiplayer game out right now for the Vive.
A fun team shooter game where chairs are both decent weapons and impromtu shields. It's a great bar brawl, with lots of random items around for fun, frantic gameplay
