Bulletstorm VR

It’s entirely appropriate that I only paid half for the game since HALF OF THE GAME IS MISSING. Remember the T-Rex section? Gone. Remember the maneaters? Gone. Remember the section with the boss plant? Gone. Remember all the delightfully racist commentary by Serrano contrasted with Ishi and Grey? Gone. The game gives you the option to preserve the old dialogue with Mature mode, but what's the point of that if you're just going to cut out any content that is actually “offensive”? Some of these parts are replaced by Trishka sections, which WOULD have been neat if there was any dialogue whatsoever. It's just eerily quiet, which is jarring in this game. There are some things that I actually did like about this version, like how they changed up where the weapons first appear, how the chain gun (forgot the name) can be rotated to fire vertically or diagonally instead of just horizontally, how the Screamer pistol can more easily deliver headshots due to the laser sight, and best of all, the ability to dual-wield any two weapons in the game (yes, seriously, you can). However, the fact that they basically removed half the game despite providing the option to see all the offensive stuff, means I feel obligated to leave a negative review.

[h1]Experienced on the Meta Quest 3[/h1] You can view my full review here: https://youtu.be/vq30Gr3tP6E I enjoyed playing this game. I do recommend it. However, I also understand why it's currently sitting on a Mixed Review status. This is an underwhelming port of a beloved classic. At the end of the day though, I do think it's a competent port. If you're a fan of Bulletstorm, it's a new way to enjoy it. If you're not a fan, it's still something different than the usual VR shooter. The main thing about this game is that it's a skill shot challenge romp. You'll want to get creative in the different ways to cause maximum carnage. You have an energy leash, kicks, slides, charged shots, and environmental kills that lead up to a hundred different combos to kill enemies. This is the fun part of the game and you get rewarded for being creative. However, the translation to VR just feels a bit off. Weapon handling is not that good. The visuals just do not pop in VR due to poor lighting and poor textures. Enemy AI is dated. If you try to play this game like a normal FPS, you'll find several enemies feel like bullet sponges. You'll also probably run out of bullets. The worst sin though is that this game has deleted scenes or shortened scenes and those baffling decisions lead to the pace of the game feeling off. Listen, I don't care about the censorship part either way. I think people upset about that have got problems in their lives that I don't have the time to get into. In either event, many scenes were added back and there's now a toggle in the settings to turn on or off the censored parts or the gore in the game. Game is running on the Unreal Engine 4. On my RTX 3080, I was getting mostly 90 fps on mostly high graphical settings. I do recommend turning up the brightness as the game is too dark otherwise (at least on the Meta Quest 3). I also turned down contrast a bit. I recommend manually toggling resolution scale from Steam VR as well. You have full locomotion and teleportation available, along with smooth or snap turning and handedness. All the settings, except resolution scale, are there. You can play comfortably seated. [b]Rate 6.5/10. It took me 6.5 hours to beat the game, so you may want to wait on a sale.[/b] [quote]I bought this game!

March 2025 I keep trying to love Bulletstorm VR. I've bought it twice (on sale), and I'm about to get it refunded a second time. I love the graphics here, but there is still just something not right in the gun play. Guns feel balloony and not accurate. The controls just don't feel tight. I don't even mind that (allegedly) parts of the game are missing (I've had to keep playtime below 2hr for refund). Seriously, Seriously, Seriously, I have waaaaaaay more fun playing the EA (god do I HATE EA) flat screen version into 3D VR mode through Vorpx!!!! Bulletstorm in Vorpx kicks A**!!!!! So if Bulletstorm in Vorpx feels sooooo good, I can't understand why the Devs with the VR version struggled to get this one right? ---- sigh

Played wireless via Virtual Desktop on a Quest 3: after all the quality of life updates, this game freakin' *rocks* in VR! I've heard this was considered to be a 'bad port' when it first released, but the devs stuck with it, and what we've got now is *definitely* worth checking out if you're into this genre.

Apparently used to not work, but when I got it it was on sale and they just patched it, it work pretty well now and is pretty cool in VR. If you can get this for cheap or on sale, and like some good arcade shooting in VR, check this one out.

Ich war am Anfang richtig begeistert. Besonders die Stelle mit dem Wolkenkratzer – einfach nur wow! Genau solche Momente zeigen, welches Potenzial in VR steckt und wie intensiv Action wirken kann, wenn sie gut inszeniert wird. Für einen kurzen Augenblick dachte ich: Ja, das wird genau das Spiel, auf das ich so lange gewartet habe. Leider hat diese Begeisterung nicht lange gehalten. Je länger ich spielte, desto mehr fiel mir auf, wie komisch sich alles anfühlt. Das Schießen macht keinen richtigen Spaß, weil die Gegner kaum sinnvoll reagieren. Sie stehen teilweise einfach nur da, bewegen sich seltsam oder wirken komplett leblos, selbst wenn man sie direkt trifft. Dadurch geht die Immersion verloren, und anstatt mich wie ein knallharter Actionheld zu fühlen, hatte ich eher das Gefühl, gegen Pappfiguren zu kämpfen. Die Steuerung und das Handling tragen auch nicht gerade dazu bei, dass man im Spiel drin bleibt. Es wirkt unausgereift, fast so, als wäre das Ganze noch eine halbe Baustelle. VR lebt davon, dass man mittendrin ist und das Spielgefühl greifbar wird – hier passiert genau das Gegenteil: Es reißt mich immer wieder raus. Klar, die Grafik ist nicht die beste, damit hatte ich schon gerechnet. Aber immerhin gab es ein paar Wow-Effekte, die wirklich Eindruck hinterlassen haben. Leider sind diese Momente viel zu selten und reichen nicht aus, um über die vielen Schwächen hinwegzutäuschen. Am meisten enttäuscht bin ich, weil ich das Spiel so lange auf meiner Wunschliste hatte und mich wirklich darauf gefreut habe. Als es dann im Angebot war, habe ich zugeschlagen – und jetzt denke ich mir: Das hätte ich mir sparen können. Selbst zum reduzierten Preis fühlt es sich nicht wie ein fairer Deal an. Fazit: Bulletstorm VR hat kurze Highlights, doch insgesamt überwiegt die Enttäuschung. Unausgereiftes Gameplay, schwache Gegner-KI und nur vereinzelte Wow-Momente sorgen dafür, dass ich es niemandem empfehlen kann. Schade, denn das Potenzial für ein richtig starkes VR-Erlebnis wäre eigentlich da gewesen. Lg HundelungeVR https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JvRiduYolKI&t

файна гра, але трохи порізана порівняно з оригіналом

Being able to replay the old flat game immersed in VR truly is an experience you can't explain. One needs to experience it themselves to understand how amazing it feels like to pull and slice the enemies using your own two hands! It took a while for the devs to polish this game since launch but now that all the bugs are gone I definitely recommend this game!

Very good, very fun Devs did a ton to fix the game

爽快なアクションが楽しめるVRFPS。 FPSが苦手でも相手を拘束して引き寄せるムチのようなものが使えるため全く問題ない。また、ただ敵を倒すだけでなく漏電したケーブルや千切れた鉄柵、果てはサボテンなんかを駆使していかにバラエティ豊かに倒すかに重きが置かれている。多様な倒し方をすることで得点を稼げるため次はどんな方法で戦ってやろうかとワクワクしながらプレイできる。引き寄せた敵を蹴り飛ばして残酷な末路を味わわせてやれ！ 手に入る武器も個性的なものが多く、それぞれにチャージショットという回数制の必殺技が用意されているためいろんな武器をとっかえひっかえ使っていくのもおもしろい。 大きな敵を相手にするイベント戦も度々あるためVRならではの大迫力＆臨場感を味わえる。 ゴア表現やキャラのお下品な掛け合いに嫌悪感を抱かないなら終始ハイテンションで遊びきれるだろう。 問題点として少し簡単すぎる点が挙げられる。自分はノーマル難易度でクリアしたが、道中難しさや歯ごたえを感じる箇所はほとんどなかった。というのも、敵はわらわらと出てくるし攻撃も苛烈なのだが如何せん主人公が強すぎる。大概の敵はムチで引き寄せて処刑用の環境オブジェクトに蹴りつけてやれば終わりなので気持ちいい反面、物足りなさがある。主人公のHPも物陰に少し隠れていれば回復するので多少攻撃を喰らおうが問題にならない。VRFPS慣れしている人は難易度を上げてプレイした方がいいと思われる。 また、多少のバグがある。自分が遭遇したものでは『戦闘BGMが場面転換後も終わらない』『戦闘後にイベントが進まず進行不可になる』『突然ゲームが落ちる』などだ。ただ、発生頻度は少なく、発生してもこまめにチェックポイントが用意されているのでやり直しも苦にならない。そこまで問題には感じなかった。 あと元になったフラットゲームが古い作品であるせいもあるだろうが、少し画質が悪い。プレイの支障になるようなものではないが昨今の大作VRゲームに比べると映像が見劣りするのは否めない。 また、多少ネタバレにはなるが続編ありきな終わり方をするためストーリー的にはもやもやが残った幕切れになる。フラット版だと何作か出ているみたいなので完結しているのかもしれないけれど…VRでも完結を望むところ。 リリース初期は致命的なバグが多く評価が下がっているようだが、度重なるアップデートにより十分良ゲーといっていい作品に仕上がっている。 VRで気持ちよく俺TUEEEEEEEEEEEEEがしたい方はぜひ！！
