Skyarb posted:I mentioned blade and sorcery and boneworks and both of those flailing melee absolutely still works. Am I missing something? Is there some other game that does it yet again better? Gnoman posted:"Flailing" doesn't work in Blade and Sorcery except on the weakest enemies (dagger with no shield). Even then, it doesn't work very well - most of your connections will do little to no actual damage, and you can only get away with it because they have no defense and little ability to hurt you. Against something with a decent weapon or shield, you very much need to use measured strikes and actual planned strategy to do anything at all. And from my experience, flailing doesn't work very well in Boneworks either, the enemies seem to receive much less damage. Enough difference at least to tug the player towards doing real strikes, at least that was my case!

lol, gently caress me, so I was in a part with a lot of tripmines that I was in the process of disarming them. One trip mine I had to bend down over for but my Oculus Link Cable was dropping down in front of me. I moved the cable because I was afraid it was going to fall into the tripmine's laser and blow up. gently caress I love VR.

I dunno if this will help anybody other than my dumb rear end, but I somehow had both the SteamVR headset display and the Alyx spectator mode outputting to my monitor at the same time which was slowing down the game. Anyway, I installed the updated drivers and closed the Logitech updated which was chewing up 30% of my CPU for some reason and the game runs much better. Not great, but definitely acceptable for a rig that is barely above minimum spec.

The more I play Alyx with the Link Cable the more I hate tethered VR. Always having to deal with the cable, feeling it on your back and doing the cable dance when you've spun things around and coiled it after 10 minutes or so takes you right the gently caress out.

Another general “watch out for” fix I often have to engage, but may help someone because google’s services are ubiquitous: at least in my computer, the google drive sync service murders game performance, and it always runs at the worst time. Killing that takes like two years off the age of my computer.

it does feel like this was done by the B team, or at least a very different team from HL2 just a minor complaint but it sorta represents my disappointments with the game: instead of having actual fun combine posters with writing on, the posters are torn away and just say gibberish like HUMAN SCIENCE. i know it was just some vfx artist pumping out something that looked like a propaganda poster rather than actually making a propaganda poster written by a writer. the care in the assets shown in HL2 and L4D2 as storytelling devices isnt really anywhere in this game. its very AAA

Please make fun of me for the next question: This seems oculus based but I have an index, should I still do this y/n While this is potentially a bigger problem for Oculus users, it is still good for Index users to disable the automatic supersampling setting. Especially if you want to play at a higher framerate like 120 or 144. Just set the supersampling to 100%

SteamVR does this on its own, so it applies if you're using it for any reason, so yeah this absolutely applies if you have an index. I checked mine and it's in the general area the link said it was, though it looks a little different. If you want to mess with the performance I encourage tweaking it, because it'll have a big impact on the performance as well as the clarity, so you should tinker and find a spot where you're happy with it

Half Life Alyx Patch Notes: Improved turning options in Preferences: - Added "Continuous Turn", and associated turning speed options. - Renamed "Quick turn" to "Snap Turn" to make its functionality clearer. - Added option to disable controller turning. Improved hand-over-mouth pose usability for Windows MR controllers. Improved the resolution of impact decals on enemies. Improved automatic detection of default Quality settings for some machine configurations. Fixed an issue where some sounds didn't play as intended. Fixed an issue where the main menu could become less responsive if you had many save games. Fixed several crashes. I hope they add in melee at some point.

I'm deeply upset. Just started an RMA with Valve because on day 2 of playing Alyx, 6 hours in, my right lens in the Index is streaking color vertically all across it. Can't see poo poo out of my right eye in the game now, essentially. I'm so sad. Now I can't play until... Whenever they send a replacement headset, and I have to dodge spoilers on the internet. This has been my most hyped game in God knows how long, and I've been loving it 100% and this really took the wind out of my sails. I guess I'll try to finish Doom or some poo poo in the meantime. Bleh.

Yeah I found it really east to cheese the entire game with a trash can shield and literally any melee weapon. Just walk up to them and waggle away. Now I didn't play that way the whole time but whenever i was frustrated I just picked up a piece of cover and walked forward till within waggling distance.

pre:Quest Build 15.0 Release Notes
Update
All of these features and enhancements will become available throughout the week of March 23, 2020.
Guardian
Guardian setup has been updated with new animated instructional clips to help you create safer playspaces.
Oculus Link
Test your connection
You can now test your connection during Oculus Link setup. During setup, clicking Test Cable will tell you:
Whether or not your connection is compatible
The available bandwidth
The connection type
You can access your Link setup at any time by selecting Quest and Touch from the Devices menu when your headset is hooked up to your PC.
Please note: This feature requires both your Quest headset and your PC software to be on software version 15 to work properly.
Fixes
Fixed an issue that sometimes caused the experience to become stuck in a black screen on launch where audio and tracking is still functional.
Link now detects your headphones and Mic separately. This means that if you run into any issues, you'll see more specific error messaging to help solve it.
Fixed an issue that impacted volume controls when certain connected devices were disabled.
Additional fixes and updates for stability and reliability.
Social
You can now remotely join a Party through party invitation notifications on the Oculus mobile app. Once you put on your headset, you’ll be able to confirm that you wish to join the party and immediately begin socializing in VR.
You’ll now be notified if you are joining a party which includes a user who you’ve blocked or who has blocked you.
If a user you’ve blocked is added to your party, they will automatically be muted for you by default.
Some pop-up dialog messages have been brought slightly closer to the user to improve design consistency.
Chats have received updated icons and labeling to improve consistency and clarity.
System Software
In-VR notifications now have an updated look and are no longer head-locked.
A speech-to-text option has been added to the in-VR keyboard, allowing you to enter text via voice instead of typing. Please note that this feature is only available to a percentage of users at this time.
Experimental Features
Passthrough Shortcut - You can now enter Passthrough to see your real world surroundings at any time. Once you’ve enabled the feature, double tap the side of your headset
to enter Passthrough. When you're finished, double tap again to return to VR.
Redesigned Universal Menu - We've redesigned the universal menu to be more efficient and effective when navigating in VR. Highlights include:
Allowing you to access your universal menu without leaving the app you’re using, if the developer of the app has enabled this option
Surfacing your most used apps and experiences first
Putting system apps like Explore, Store, Browser, and TV in one central location
Adding "Quick Actions" to your settings panel for easy access to key system settings like volume and brightness
Multiple Window Support for Oculus Browser - Multitask to get more done and stay connected. Watch a video to crib gameplay tips in one window, check out your friends’ latest
Facebook updates in another, and catch up on the day’s news in a third. You can open, close, and rearrange windows from a new control box above the window. Support for multiple
windows will first come to Oculus Browser, with support for more 2D apps like Chats and Store coming later.
Additional Bug Fixes
Fixed an intermittent bug that prevented all items from displaying in Storage Manager when more than 40 items were present
Fixed a Chats bug that would sometimes cause the ‘Start Chat’ button to move locations
Additional bug fixes and stability improvements
