If we have six then we can also play teams in Population One which is an excellent battle royale game.

I don't have Population 1. I don't really like Battle Royal games so never bought it. Haven't tried any Battle Royal games in VR yet. Like Unseul, I think I would try the Rec Room one first and see if we like it

NightStalker said he is in if we are playing A TownShip Tale. Here is his post.

@Jay85 is in as soon as he gets his PC up and running. I don't know does he have a Quest 2 or not.

Clear as mud

Not too long now, just a few other bits to do on it.

I have a quest 2, played ST Bridge Crew with you before haha, was awhile ago though.

Will have to purchase a few games as i dont think i have the ones you guys mentioned.

Rec room is free so that makes a lot of things easier.

Awesome, better to play it via pc or straight from the headset?

I noticed its available on Steam as well.

I play it straight from the headset. It's been great playing Rise of the JumboTron.

So what's the plan? I've not got township tale yet, do I need to buy it now and get going with the tutorial? Or we're going rec room?

EDIT - Or something else?

Who's actually turning up tonight, so we know?

ShiWarrior · 9 Aug 2021 at 13:15

I'm in tonight, we could do rec royale or something on rec room, not sure what else they have

melmac · 9 Aug 2021 at 15:04

I should be around tonight. Maybe try some of the other things in Rec Room?

I have Star Wars Squadrons, but have only played like 10 minutes of it.

We could try A Township Tale if you want also. Meet in Rec Room and decide from there?

ShiWarrior · 9 Aug 2021 at 15:43

just a heads up , ive not bought Township Tale

melmac · 9 Aug 2021 at 16:01

Maybe tonight we should try a TownShip tale on the Quest 2? It's pretty cheap, Play for an hour and see what we think, then refund the game if we don't like it.

EDIT: Just a suggestion!!

Jay85 · 9 Aug 2021 at 16:13

I'm passing tonight, got family visiting last minute. Should be fine for the week after, nothing planned yet.

ShiWarrior · 9 Aug 2021 at 16:14

no worries Jay, Thanks for letting us know

How long does the tutorial take in township tale?

Not long at all. They claim it takes 40 minutes. Took me about 20 minutes, if that. I spent longer messing with my character setup.

Unseul · 9 Aug 2021 at 17:04

OK, so far it's:

Upto 4 and I say we stick with rec room. 5, we find something else, 6 and we maybe try rec room again with 2 teams in rec royale? Get to 8? and we can fill a paintball room I think?

EDIT -That said, I'm still happy to go township tale.

ShiWarrior · 9 Aug 2021 at 17:08

if we get 5 (Jay not able to make it) then can we fill a room with paintball anyway still ?

Ravenger · 9 Aug 2021 at 18:43
