Right, editing this to incorporate the general social aspect. If you want to join some other boardies, just post and say hello!

When:

Games normally played:
Walkabout mini golf
Rec room

Other options that we've done as a group:

Star trek bridge crew
After the fall
Watching films in Big Screen.

I've added you as a friend in rec room, or is your steam rec room different to your oculus one? I've added you as a steam friend, but I don't think that'll help in rec room, as I'll be using the quest 2 version.

I've got Shi as a friend in rec room too (imported friend). Can't see Melmac though? Maybe privacy settings?
 
I'd class it as reasonably rude rather than extremely...

I used to be an adventurer until i took a dozenarrows to the face and couldn't actually see...

Great fun and definitely looking forward to next week. Want to see if we can complete jumbotron.
 
Wanted to make it seem at least a little more open to those without a specific game.

Anyone reading this, please feel free to drop in and find folk to play with! It's so much more fun playing these games with people you "know".

I was only joking!! :) It's a good idea and a great thread title.

Hope more people can get involved. It would be great on those days that one or two of us can't make it. Or even to go a second night.

And this is why more people should get involved!! Over the last number of weeks, there have been so many funny moments.

Get enough and we can just split up, two groups of 3 would be 2 squads in rec room royale I believe. 5 players in walkabout mini golf etc.
 
Just been looking, and wondering if perhaps Valheim couldn't be an interesting option? We'd really need someone with a spare always on PC, so the world could be persistent and be picked up whenever someone fancies a run around, rather than always having to wait for the host to be available. Everyone needs the VR mod apparently (otherwise there's some graphics glitches).

Supports upto 10 players (don't know if that's 10 at once, or upto 10, regardless of online or not).
 
So we're still on for Rec Room tomorrow?

Other folks, feel free to join us, we can either find a game to all play together, or split into groups/teams etc depending on numbers. Sooner we "organise" the easier it is to plan.
 
I started leaning in and out of cover a bit, but I don't have a huge amount of room, so still have to be a little careful. Jumbotron is very shootable from behind cover, it's a big screen to hit. The problem is I guess enemies just keep spawning, so you need to try and lead them around. Climbing the ladders seems like it might get away from some of them. So blast the lower two sides first, then the upper sides?

Are we going ahead? It's so hot here, the real muggy heat you get just before a storm.

3 isn't enough and if we go into rec room with 3 we might end up with some screaming kid during our run.

EDIT: I am running 5-10 minutes late as well.

If you set it as a private game no one else can join but invited. And you can play with 3, it's just tougher.

Bloody close again. Now I think that after each tv is destroyed there's a wave. Meaning we might want to restrategise for next week!
 
Had a bit of a thought. We can see the health bar of the TVs right? And the enemies only spawned when a TV was destroyed?

Might be an idea to weaken them all to a low level. So if there is suddenly infinite reinforcements from destroying one of the screens, we can just blitz the last few screens (might be a better way to do it anyway).
