Excellent game! I downloaded the demo the other day and got hooked quickly! I have been looking for a new VR game to play and this one got my attention because it avoids my 3 key frustrations: 1. It has a decent solo campaign mode (not strictly multi-player) 2. It's not a rogue-like (I CAN'T STRESS HOW SICK I AM OF ROGUE-LIKES!!!!) 3. It's not a zombie shooter. There are those that do the genre well...but it is SO PLAYED OUT! This game kind of gives me Terminator vibes without being a total clone. Cool concept, good graphics, and fun game play.

Macht fun. Guter VR Shooter.
Honestly, this game is fun! After being able to complete the missions and finding the techparts, running around with unlimited power and ammo is a whole bunch of fun! I do wish there were more levels than there are, it doesn't feel worth the price until you add in the cheating modes you're allowed to use. I don't know if it was just me, but the boss took me over an hour to complete due to just general lack of knowledge (and constantly falling into holes LOL!), so I wish there was an explanation about where to fire once the battle started, maybe just some glowing rings around the blades, or even some warning symbols on them to mark a sort of "Hey aim here!" Other than the boss and the price, this game is absolutely incredible and so much fun!! Would totally recommend to anyone who had some money to spend!
A bullet-time forced VR shooter with solid gunplay. Maybe a bit too short currently but worth trying.
Fantastic game, really hoping its gonna hit it big soon
Только что прошёл. В игре 6 уровней. В конце игры мощный босс. Игра необычна своим замедлением времени. Замедляешься - подлетаешь и как бац кулаком в харю роботу или расстреляешь всех из разных пушек . Взрывы в замедленном времени - выстрелы - выглядит круто. Короткая это единственный минус. Багов замечено не было. Купил по акции после обзора ПАВЛА ВР.
Good shooter in VR
District Steel is a lot of fun. I think it was great for the amount of time I put into it. This might purely be my own preference, but I sort of wish there was a little bit more "progression" to play with throughout the levels. Like starting with a pistol, then getting the automatic, then getting the shotgun. Maybe that might make returning to earlier levels not feel as great, but I would love to get a feel for what I'm going through as well. The mechanics are really fun. I love the time slowdown feature, though while I know most people say they don't like a hud being on screen that follows the head, I wouldn't have minded one for at least the slowdown meter. Something to let me know how much I have left without needing to look down at my wrist to check. Also, I do wish the walking speed was just MARGINALLY faster. It basically felt like I was forced to use the rocket slide all the time. Levels were a lot of fun. It had enough variety that I had a good time. I think something I wish I could have taken advantage of more was more "breaking" of things to get through something. There's a tutorial for punching through wood with your fist but it felt like that was used maybe.. twice in the game at most? Also, I don't like that it seems to be tied to just the trigger press and not making a fast. Granted, I say this from the perspective of having played with the Index. But I digress. I also enjoy that this game has a cheats system. I think I'll be coming back to this later to scour the levels to see if I can find all the data packs to unlock fun cheats. Having the revolver was great, but I wish there was a way to turn it off? Or find some way to change the pistol ammo to be the revolver ammo or something. Two guns sharing the same ammo slot forced me to have to choose whether or not I wanted to use the automatic or to use the Revolver. I'd like to have both options ideally. But given they share the same ammo pool, I run out of both too quickly. I guess what I'm trying to say is that this is a great game and I'd very much recommend it
Bei "District Steel" handelt es sich um einen VR-Retro-Shooter, in welchem wir eine Invasion von bösartigen Robotern der "SenTri Corporation" stoppen müssen. Diese haben an mehreren Orten der Erde ihre Stationen errichtet, um von hier aus die Weltherrschaft an sich zureißen. Als eine Art Cyborg infiltrieren wir eine unterirdische "SenTRI"-Einrichtung. Dabei stellen sich uns viele bewaffnete Blechköpfe in den Weg. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2979847945 Da wir zum Teil eine Maschine sind, haben wir ein paar coole Fähigkeiten auf Lager. An unserer linken Seite besitzen wir einen Mechanischen Arm, mit welchem wir die Zeit manipulieren können. Per Knopfdruck können wir die Zeit verlangsamen, und so geschickt den Kugeln ausweichen und unsere Feinde leicht ausschalten. Diese Fähigkeit verbraucht jedoch Energie, so das wir sie nicht unendlich benutzen können. Aufladen können wir sie mit gefundenen Energie Kanistern. Ebenfalls dient uns unser Robo-Arm noch als Lager für Gegenstände wie Medipaks oder Granaten. Zu guter Letzt verfügen wir noch über einen Raketenantrieb, mit welchem wir höhere Ebenen erreichen, oder eine schnelle Sprintbewegung machen können. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2986096246 Technisch macht das Spiel alles richtig. Die Grafik sieht sehr schön aus, und gibt uns ein tolles Retro-Feeling. Das Spiel läuft super flüssig und wurde allen Anschein nach sehr gut optimiert. Das Leveldesign wurde akribisch durchdacht, und es gibt oft mehrere Wege durch die Gebiete. Wir können durch Lüftungsschächte krabbeln, Rohre und Berüstungen erklimmen oder sogar durch Glasscheiben hechten. Abseits der Wege können wir versteckte Truhen oder auch "Tech-Chips" finden. Letztere können verwendet werden um Waffen oder Cheats freizuschalten. Die VR-Mechaniken wie Waffenbedienung, Klettern, Hebel umlegen oder auch das öffnen von Spinden fühlen sich super an. Die tollen Synthie-Klänge runden das Gesamtpaket perfekt ab. "District Steel" fühlt sich an wie ein Mix aus "Quake" und "Robo Recall". https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2983598464 Fazit: Für die bisher Sechs Kapitel umfassende Kampagne habe ich 5 Stunden gebraucht, und wurde in dieser Zeit super Unterhalten. Das Spiel fängt den Flair der alten Shooter perfekt ein. Für Fans von Retro-Shootern ist "District Steel" meiner Meinung nach ein Must-Have. Das Spiel ist jeden Cent wert.
