CDF Starfighter VR

There is a Gem in Here. Now About Those Game Crashes........ HMD Used: Oculus Rift with XBox One Gamepad Computer Set-Up: i7-8700, Windows 10, GTX 1070Ti, 16 GB RAM In reading the reviews on this thing, I had been staying away from it. When the developer posted a Re-Mastered Version would be coming in the future, I thought I would take a stab (after all, if it were that bad, I could refund it). I'm glad I did. First off, starting this thing up in Oculus VR Mode, was nothing but a disaster. Although I could get the game started, the gamepad was completely unresponsive (except for the Thrust)/ But when I started up the game in Steam VR Mode, I had a more pleasant experience, although I was stuck on the default Steam VR screen until I left clicked on my mouse, then the game started. After playing with the game for a bit, I decided to change the GamePad Configuration to '2' (I'm a lefty), inverted the pitch, and reduced sensitivity on the pitch/yaw. Getting to the Custom Control screen (which, unfortunenately, you had to take off the Rift, and make the changes on the flat screen monitor) resulted in a game crash or two. When I got stuck on the Custom Control screen, Task Manager usually had my RAM pegged out at 85%. In finally getting the controls to my liking, I started to play a lot more: Trial Run, Free Flight, Simulation/Training Mode. Wow! This is the first space game in a long time (I would count Everspace, but their support for the Xbox One gamepad was horrible the last time I played) where I had a game impress me in the same way Eve Valkyrie VR did. The sense of scale is immense (flying around the base ships is incredibly fun, and flying around the various astreroid fields was also a good time (especially the violatile asteroid field). Tracking both friendly and enemy ships is a breeze (love the 3-D radar), and the ability to match the target's speed is a great feature. But then came the crashes........ Every so often (average of every 4 missions or so), the game screen would freeze, requiring me to re-start the game. Less common, but no less important, is that the Unreal Engine would crash (with an option to send the developer a report on what happened; which I took advantage of). More rarely, is the one time where the crash closed down Steam entirely. Normally, these crashes would cause me to refund the game, but the basic gameplay, its sense of scale, the fun of flying around, captivated me enough to keep coming back (although after the game crashed Steam, I decided to stop). Now I haven't gotten to the campaign yet, but I've mostly enjoyed what I played so far, and do want to come back for more. Unless the game performance starts tanking worse than the stock market in December, I plan to come back to play, and look forward to what the remaster may bring.

The dev's have really upgraded the game. Flight controls are now fully mappable even with a HOTAS controller. ( you can also still manually edit the \Users\"username"\AppData\Local\CDFStarfighterRM\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor\Input.ini config file) Also it has remastered graphics. Thanks for not letting the community down dev's. (Edit) Before the february 2020 update : What looked like a fun game turned out to be an unplayable nightmare. I could not get out of the launch tube. With different controllers (mouse/keyboard, xbox controller, and Saitek x52 pro) there was no button to launch. Or manual that told you how to launch. Even the firebutton brought up the menu. Which had no option to EXIT!!

Got the game to start once in my HTC Vive, but not after that. Tried reinstalling and deleting hidden app cache data. No dice. Had to refund.

Wir schreiben das Jahr 2019 und das Ding ist noch immer ein einziger Bug. Ich weiß auch gar nicht, wann hier überhaupt mal das letzte Update war. In VR unspielbar - mir taten bei der Kampagne, erste Mission die Augen weh von der Ruckelei und den Verzerrungen. Es ist auch pausenlos abgestürzt oder zum Teil gar nicht erst gestartet. Da wurden meine Frachter von feindlichen Schiffen zerschossen, die gar nicht da waren. Dazu die Steuerung, mit der man fast überhaupt nichts trifft, wenn man keine gelenkten Zielraketen hat. Update 2020: Die Remastered ist raus und noch immer unspielbar. Mein Hotas wird gar nicht erst aufgeführt und es stürzt bereits im Menu ab. Grafikeinstellung gibt es nicht, ein Testflug wurde zum Ruckeldesaster und mit Touchcontrollern unspielbar. Mal flog das Schiff, mal flog es nicht oder überschlug sich nur. Schießen konnte ich auch nicht. Ich weiß nicht, was das soll. Seit DREIZEHN STUNDEN bin ich nur am probieren und testen, ob ich das Ding gescheit zum laufen bekomme!!! Ich will meine Lebenszeit zurück!!! Meine Specs: Win 10, 1080 GTX, SSD, 32 GB RAM, Oculus Rift CV1.

Remastered version is fantastic on Oculus Rift. Control mapping does still take a little work, but HOTAS, Dualshock, K/M, and Oculus Touch all work. The only negative is that the touch function like a controller so no head or motion control for ship or weapons. I really hope there's additional content or sequel!

The Game has its shares of bugs , Which denied it's top Ranking , But Creation Content Never Fell Short of Amazing , And is still a Worthy investment of True Epic VR Entertainment..

Ten kawałek gówna nawet się nie uruchamia. Całe szczęście kupiłem za grosze w promocji i strata kasy tak nie boli. Jeżeli ktoś na serio rozważa kupno tego badziewia, niech lepiej da te pieniądze bezdomnym. Przynajmniej zrobi dobry uczynek.

Trying to play the game...with HP Reverb. The game menu works on the computer screen but nothing is displayed in the HP Reverb except 4 looping points (as if it was loading). Le menu du jeu fonctionne sur l'écran de l'ordinateur mais rien ne s'affiche dans le HP Reverb sauf 4 points tournant en boucle (comme s'il chargeait).

Remastered. Vive controllers are still not supported.

Rubbish, doesnt work, dont waste your money.
