Kayak VR is going to be on PS Premium on June 18th if you don't own it yet. No DLC though.

@devilrules170 Ай бұрын

Amazing, just got my psvr2, upgraded to premium. These are the sort of games I want on premium, games I prob wouldn't think to buy as I'm not sure I will play them enough (like before your eyes, would never have bought that but did enjoy it).

@JonnyJamesC Ай бұрын

If you go to the options in Kayak VR: Mirage there is a slider for Night Time something (I can't remember the word), turn it up and the sock over the head goes away. Makes the night lighter but it is much nicer than the sock effect. Not sure if it is a new setting or not? Talking of Mura I purchased The Wizards Dark Times in the sale and was so surprised despite the lower resolution there was no noticeable mura effect anywhere even with all the light sources from flames, torches and magic explosions. Funny how some devs nail it. There is another visual upgrade coming for Dark Times very soon, I am hoping it is DFR. The Exocars devs are the Omega Pilot devs, wasn't that game supposed to be coming to PSVR2 this year? Thanks for the show chaps.

@WithoutParole Ай бұрын

Thanks Jonny. I'll check out the slider in Kayak! Omega Pilot was never on my radar for PSVR2 games (unless I'm just blanking on it currently) but I'll check in with XOCUS and see if it's still coming :D

In regards to Wes’ comments, yes a lot of the VR interactivity in Rescue Mission was gimmicky, but finding hidden bots by moving your head around felt like a core revolution to its collectathon aspect, it is something that could not be replicated by simply putting a flat game in VR since all of Playroom’s hidden Easter eggs relied entirely on the sticks. The hidden bots was definitely an evolution of the platformer genre that went beyond just the increased immersion of VR and gimmicks, all of a sudden collecting things required observing the world with a totally different form of interactivity, it’s why people call it the Mario 64 of VR.

I’m still going to complain on every Astro bot video until they start developing the game for PSVR2! What a weak argument just saying it wasn’t intended to be for VR- it was made for VR! They better intend on developing it for PSVR2 or they the complaints won’t end!

Just got this and it's fun. but I have a question. It says there are two different starting points to the new level but I can't seem to get to the rapids if I start at the first starting point. So it appears to be two separate sub-levels?

@devilrules170 Ай бұрын

Got a question, got my psvr2 last week but don't seem to have much issue with bluryness (helps that my large head means my dpi has to be set to max). I do notice a jelly like movement of textures when I move my head though. Am I doing something wrong? Got a psvr and quest 2 and never seen this before. Really noticed it on the upgrade of dark matter 1.

@devilrules170 Ай бұрын

Cheers, wrote this while drunk and watching the new episode of dark matter (that wasn't what was causing the vr issues). I will give those changes a go. I have spot lights, do you think they cause an issue too?

Sure I’m disappointed Astrobot isn’t in VR, that seems such a missed opportunity. And regarding Mura I have to agree Kayak is pretty much the only game I own where it’s really really noticeable. It ruins the dark stages such as Antarctica with the northern lights as you say Bryan it’s like I’m looking through a sock! I’d really love to understand how it’s possible we have super dark games like Maddison that has no MURA yet night in Kayak it’s so so obvious! It gives me hope it’s down to the devs, but understanding the technical reason why would help developers and us :)

@Snaphoo Ай бұрын

@6:24 So, ironically, I really do care about Astro Bot getting VR support. Honestly I want all 3D games on PlayStation to have a VR mode by default. I know its not realistic, because of different game engines and the varying nature of the camera in flat-games, but if it were and option to at least be able to try it in VR if it can achieve a good frame rate like with Dreams, that would be the best scenario I’d hope for. But you’re right, it will likely be a looooong time before I’ve saved up for PSVR2 and PS5.

Kayak game rapids has become 1st time in a while I got severe motion sickness. Partly cause I sucked at steering but the spinning caused feeling sick to my stomach. Kinda funny. Use a small fan and have someone splash water in front of fan created like being in a weird surreal dream...

The static add-on puzzles in Puzzling places-VR can go for $5 to 6 bucks, so this Kayak addon is well worth it. I rather buy these epic scenic awesome realistic river trails then static puzzles of other games. Maybe Kayak Devs can finish the other updates if this add-on helps the Dev see people are still interested in their fledgling GREAT & fun game. :)

I think if Astrobot Rescue Mission was on psvr2 or there was more first party support in general, VR gamers wouldn't be so disappointed about the lack of psvr2 support for Astrobot. Edit: I would LOVE Road Rash VR. And lazy river mode with friends would be great for Kayak VR.

Kayak vr whitewater was very disappointing (Hardly any whitewater just slightly small bumps)compared to the kayak game that I saw a few weeks ago on quest.

Night exposure setting turned up a bit helps a lot with night mura, but as I've owned 3 PSVR2 units I can confirm my first 2 were much worse than my latest (bought in the sale), as was the sweet spot (better and felt clearer overall vs the 2 I had back at launch even though they had similar production dates... luck of the draw)

I think the real answer is Sony doesn’t want their teams adding VR modes, that’s been obvious for a while now. While what this guy says isn’t a lie, it is a diversion/excuse for the larger truth.

@Alex_Logan22 Ай бұрын

@@SB-ln6kb Making the game hybrid doesn't hold it back from being the best it can be, more resources go into accessibility settings than basic VR modes (which is probably another mandate). You can't convince me that serves more of a commercial benefit than VR. Yes I agree Sony studios do get a luxury others don't, but Sony still won't let them do VR regardless of how much they want to, Spiderman 2 for sure would've had a bonus webslinging VR mode (no combat/missions, just swinging in the city) cause Insomniac loved developing VR and were big advocates for it, they had no problems gambling on VR before getting aquired, investments lost were always subsidized. Asobi wasn't much different, and I'm pretty sure London studio would've preferred doing VR over flat live service, they may still even be here if they got to make a PSVR2 launch title that went big. If the priority was bottom line money, they would do a lot better with low effort/quality projects with high revenue like Candy Crush than constantly going for prestige, even a service game like Concord has to have the storytelling and quality people expect from a PlayStation game when all that does is reduce income.
