Nice one, Wez

Come on guys, don't be shy

Working 7 days a week at the minute, VR in the middle consists of flop in to bed with a film. Hopefully it'll kick up again over Christmas with some free time.

I must admit I've lost my VR mojo at the moment. I recently built a new desk and transferred my PC in to a new case and I just could not be bothered to set-up the Rift again as I couldn't face all the cable mess etc.
Not a great excuse I know but I cannot get motivated right now.

I'll join some stuff. I just don't have War Dust, and I'm still going through tweaking my experience with the Odyssey+ (currently swapping through various USB extensions at the mo to find one that's juuuuuust right without introducing audio or tracking problems).
Doesn't have to be war dust. Pick anything you want
Dunno about the rest of you, but I fancy some Bridge Crew. Been a while.

Thinking of getting Pavlov vr. You guys have it?

I just tried it earlier this evening. Utterly hilarious
To be honest it was the other players on the server that made me laugh so much. Some real comedians there 
I'm no trekky, but I hear Bridge Crew is more fun than it looks. I'll get it downloaded
I have Pavlov too, but not tried it yet. Doesn't look like it offers much in the way of comfort options? I might collapse pretty quickly without the FOV vignetting... Happy to try though!

Check out this guy's Bridge Crew playlist if you want a laugh. He's pure quality.
Downloaded the game, but I must say those videos don't sell it. Seems very "bring your own fun" roleplay?
Meh, I have it now so I'll hop on with you lot and hope some of you bring enough fun for me to share
Yes, it's about having fun with your crewmates. You may not have as much fun or get a lot of the humour if you're not into Trek.
Anyone picking up Contractors?

I had a beta key and played it a few times. Bought it yesterday.
It's like Onward with respawns. A bit slow paced for me, but it's good and the graphics are nice.

There's a bunch of these now. Contractors the latest, Virtual Army looks good on the horizon, and there's Zero calibre out there.
What is the deal with 5v5 limits? ill argue the point, non of these will be hugely successful until there's 10 or 16 a side. There's definite willing, the latest release always see's a initial huge spike, people want one of these games to succeed. Pavlov seems to get a free pass because of it being the first, the workshop, and the viral noise surrounding it. Even Pavlov loses it's appeal though, more players would make people more than just fodder for the one player that dominates and ends most rounds in 60 seconds.
Ranting... but frustrating as id like to jump in on these games, but don't knowing there only going to fade in to obscurity after a month or two.

I guess the 5v5 thing is so they don't have to worry too much about filling large lobbies and perhaps also wanting to emulate the league/esports success of Onward.
Zero Caliber is still just SP/co-op against AI.
Why do you think Contractors will fade quickly?
Personally, I want an established dev to make a polished Battlefield VR - basically a better version of the very fun, but flawed War Dust (New map out next week btw).
