WORLDS AT WAR (Monitors & VR)

Perfect arcade / reality mix. An amazing VR experience. I really enjoy the epic scale of the alien invasion. A great mix of enemies, great pacing, good flight dynamics and a changeling game! This game being developed by a one man team is an incredible achievement!

As much potential as this game had, the first time I played it the controls barely worked, if the developers see this, please make easier controls

The guy that made this is an ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥!! Get your controls working properly!! Do not buy this ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

Actually a sweet game. Visuals are a little dated, but still super immersive. Some of the jet flight mechanics feel broken (I've stalled out multiple times in shallow turns???) but the helicopter physics feel great. My video review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QvpajmoHx2o Recommended to play in virtual reality with FULL HOTAS, including flight pedals, if you have them. I haven't tried keyboard/mouse or gamepad in flatscreen mode though, but it seems doable. Keybinding/joystick setup is absolute trash, but once you get it working its fine. You have to reset the bindings every time you start the game, and every time you connect/disconnect USB ports. Definitely recommend binding a button on your joystick to mouseclick, so that you can use menus in-game, and I also recommend setting everything up in flatscreen mode before transitioning into VR. Get it on sale and you won't be disappointed!

This may be the first VR game I have written about, and one I couldn't help not to. This game is NOT WITHOUT its flaws(of which can be very irritating and gating to a degree), but what it does right is rather mind blowing. I will try to keep this concise, but if you are looking for a GREAT arcade-ish helicopter flight sim in vr, this is your huckleberry. I can confirm HOTAS works, albeit after a little a calibration. This is NOT really a complete game, but more or less a dope ass alien invasion backdrop with great graphics that allows to fly a few different ships. Pros: -Great graphics and sound -full vr and hotas support -loads fairly quick and didnt have many framerate hitches running on Oculus Quest 2 and VD wirelessly. -offers helicopter, among a couple other craft to fly. The helicopter feels the best, with the warthog at a distant second. -BEST feeling helo game I have found honestly for the money. CONS: -Controls can be sluggish -Might have the worst menu navigation system I have ever seen. (took a minute to really grasp how it works) -There is no tutorial or real hand holding, which can lead to frustration if you are not patient. -The aiming system, while novel, can be disorienting at times. -There aren't any objectives really. You can shoot down certain ships, but there isn't any real gameplay advancement or story. OVERALL: Amazing game with massive potential. Unfortunately, it seems the sole developer has gone MIA as there hasn't been updates or even correspondence from him in over a YEAR. That said, the guy knows his stuff(he worked on Battlefield and other games), as what he does offer is pretty great considering it was made by ONE GUY. If you are looking for a great VR game to throw your friends into with HOTAS and blow their mind, or maybe you just wanna fly around for an hour and shoot at aliens in a pretty environment in VR, well then this is a great investment. I paid $20, but wish I had waited til it went on sale.

有点意思，推荐一试，但是请在两小时内确认要不要退款。 作为普通的鼠键玩家，载具虽然在一般的操作下表现不错。但是一旦机动多了，就会出现反物理失真，镜头的跟随也相当别扭，需要更多的改进。 游戏内容目前仅为三场的小战役，再加上糟糕的操作体验，很难玩下去。 —————————————————— TO DEV ： plz improve keyboard&mouse control and the change of camera lens following

The controls need some work but the game itself is beautiful. I got it at 50% off and I think its fairly cool. I hope the dev continues to work on it, with a little more tweaking this could be a hit.

Oh man what a great game! How is this so cheap, one of my favourite VR games at the moment, so much fun just flying and shooting. Need to get much better at this game to do it justice. Great graphics nice and fast and intense. Unbelievable VR fun, getting thoroughly lost in this one. Need to get back the carrier is under attack!!

I’m embarrassed, I deeply am. I just feel ashamed of myself and I don’t know how to go on. No, I am not ashamed that I have played this game, I am ashamed that I have never played it until now! Serious, WORLDS AT WAR is an action game in which you will be taking down giant robots and alien ships using a range of vehicles like helicopters, military boats and fighter jets, each of them looks great, but not as great as the scenery looks which is beautiful. But this game is not just good to look at, it feels pretty great to play with guns-a-plenty and powerups to keep things over-the-top. OK, so the controls could do with a few tweaks, but overall I feel the game is worth every single penny of the current £15.49 asking price. It’s a real hidden gem in the Steam store that I am embarrassed to say I had not played before today.

Solid, addictive sim lite. It's pretty much independence day in VR. What the game has going for it is that you really do feel like you're sitting in a cockpit, there is a good sense of scale and speed. The world is believable. Getting a feel for the aircraft takes some practice but that helps to give you a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment when you manage to shoot down the enemy. The Graphics are pretty good, not perfect but pretty good (the mothership could certainly use some higher res textures). The sound design is good, the soundtrack is solid, it works well in the background and doesn't distract you from the game. What would be nice in a future update is a bit more ambient radio chatter. The current radio chatting when an enemy is shot down is quite immersive, a bit more of that would go a long way i feel. The game has improved a lot since i first purchased it. I'm particularly happy with the virtual hotas. Performance is fantastic, although that was never an issue, but it is worth pointing out that the game runs smooth as silk. What would be nice in the future is a few more maps with more variation. At the moment all three maps all look and play very similarly. All in all this game is definitely worth picking up. Unfortunately it appears to be burried in the mound of half arsed crap in the steam VR market, making this a real underappreciated hidden gem.
