The Social Gathering / Gaming Thread [A place to organize meet-ups]

[ShiWarrior]

Welcome to the NEW “Hangout thread”


This thread is created and designed by the members of this forum

A place to organise your entire online social activities with other members

We can do anything, play games. Watch a film or just “hangout”



Some games we play (but not limited to):




Walkabout Mini Golf

upto 8 players



This is NOT golf, this is FUN

Mostly played game here, 2 hours of our fantastic fun and chat, so relaxed



Dungeons of Eternity

upto 3 players

its like the clasic game "Gauntlet" from the 80's

Brilliant fun, hack and slash game
My VR Game of the year!







Demeo

Upto 4 players



Dungeons & Dragons / Tabletop game

Another game with lots of fun to beat the dungeons and the final BOSS





Rec Room

FREE GAME

Lots of games in one

More primitive in terms of graphics, but hugely repayable and lots and lots of fun



Most games are 4 in a team

Some like paintball are 8 players free for all/team etc





After The Fall

Upto 4 players



Zomie Shooter / Team game




Premium Bowling

Premium Bowling on Meta Quest | Quest VR games

Premium Bowling is as close to real bowling as you'll get without picking up a physical bowling ball.

That would be awesome

Happy new year mate

Just remember, organize it yourself if you want a game, any date, any times

Would definitely be up for some VR multiplayer gaming so long as the games available on Quest 2 or PlayStation VR 1 or 2 as I don’t have a gaming PC which can run modern VR titles!

 

[Ravenger]

I thought I'd give Population One another go with randoms and immediately there was someone swearing constantly and a squeaker going on about how they (mistakenly) thought gliding works.

So let's get some friends games together (of whatever game) please. Randoms drive me crazy!

 

[ShiWarrior]

ive got my referral money to use
so i will buy Pop One

ill get the Rift Version, unless there's Cross Buy (not that i could see)



/EDIT

CROSS BUY CONFIRMED
Play the premiere battle royale in VR or explore endless games in POP1 Sandbox today. CROSS-BUY - Buy for Rift or Quest 2 and get the other free.

All the games that we play are on the Quest 2, so no worries

 

[ShiWarrior]

bought Pop one

for the rift

cant play it, as i cant connect my headset


so, i click on the oculus app on my PC
says "connect your headset"

at least it was free lol (credit used)

ill have to get steam version, unless anyone knows a way to skip this step ?

Ok, I was thinking about what other games we could get for the social gaming group. Would we need 6 for this? Or can you have teams of 3 v 2 or 2v2 or how many can play at once?

 

[ShiWarrior]

Additionally, join your squad in a wide variety of rotating competitive PvP and PvE modes including: *Battle Royale *Team Deathmatch with customizable loadouts *War mode (12v12) *Legions mode (6v6v6v6) *Metro Arena (3v3v3v3) *Co-Op Bot Battle *Training Park practice and social hub

max 32 i think

Play it using Virtual desktop. Using the games menu

Can't
Need to install first

 

[Ravenger]

The Oculus PC version should work via Virtual Desktop.

If you're using Pico then you could possibly use Revive on Steam to play the Oculus PC version.

 

[ShiWarrior]

I can play oculous rift games, only once I've installed them

I can't get to install it for it to come up in my menu

That's strange, I can go into the oculus app without any headset attached and install games. It gives me a notification saying that my headset isn't detected but that's all.

 

[ShiWarrior]

Yeah I know, I'm not doubting you at all

Because I sold my quest 2, but kept registered on FB for quest only
It's making it a lot harder

 

[ShiWarrior]

im dumb


Oculus PC app
clicked wired connection
click set up
got to the main screen

installing game

 

[Ravenger]

[ShiWarrior]

I might be around. Won't know until later though.
