Ontopic Games Thread of love

So, has anyone given Battlegrounds a try yet?

"Developed by Bluehole Inc. and Brendan “Playerunknown” Greene, the creator of popular death match modifications for games like ArmA 2 and 3 and H1Z1, Battlegrounds pits players against one another in a virtual recreation of the “last person standing” setup of books/films like Battle Royale and, more recently, The Hunger Games. An airplane flies above a deserted post-Soviet island dotted with bombed out school buildings, crumbling military barracks, and barely-standing houses before waves of players jump out, parachute to the ground then set off at a dash for the weapons and equipment required to murder as many of each other as possible. The deaths, in areas where many players land, come quickly. A few punches or a single shotgun blast end the victim’s game. Survival is a frantic process of scrounging supplies as quickly as possible and listening with fast-beating heart for the sounds of nearby opponents so as to immediately flee or, better, get the drop on them before they have a chance to fight back."

I read that as "developed by Butthole Inc.

Also no, but it looks fun. Battle Royale mixed with hunger games kinda thing.

IMHO, multiplayer survival games are a pain in the ass.

This one isnt really a survival game. Its 30 (i think) minute matches, with a continually constricting arena, last man standing wins.

Survival elements are just what you can scrounge along the way when the arena is bigger.

that is a very palatable price comparatively. Shame about two things

1) facebooks shady ass locked game practices and "openVR" which is in no way open
2) for roomscale, you need to buy a 3rd sensor, and all the sensors are wired, which means you need to run longass USB cords all over
