I gave this a go last night, my mate bought it for his VIVE and thanks to the wonders of steam sharing I got to have a go too.
the campaign mode seems great, and seems just the sort of thing which I am after in a virtual shooter game. its pretty and fairly well polished. walking around following a linear path shooting zombies in the head
I tried horde mode and, whilst there is no need for full 360 degree tracking, this has me convinced that i will be getting the 3rd camera for my birthday. in the campaign at least so far, the game is slow paced enough to keep on top of your direction and use the teleport accordingly, but in horde mode it was just too fast, and, god damn it if i didnt ALWAYS end up in that 60 degree direction where touch loses tracking in the official 2 cameras front set up.
I know you can do full room tracking with 2 cameras but its not perfect in my experience (not terrible) but its too much of a pain having to move the cameras about etc so i cant be bothered with it.... the 3rd camera will screw to the ceiling and can live there unplugged when not in use.
12 months ago if you had told me i would be spending almost £750 on a VR solution i would have told you you were off your head!.
but at least it has come with shed loads of games, loads of demos and I know it is unfashionable but i really like the XB1 pad and wireless adapter too.
Thank god its xmas
