ValveNewsNetwork: Left 4 Dead VR is real, new HL:A news at TGAs
- Thread starter Chairmanchuck (另一个我)
- Start date
Is Valve determined to alienate the majority of their player-base across PC and console through the continuation of VR only for their fan favourite franchises?
Seems so.
Seems so.

Who is "we" exactly? Because I'm more than happy to get more VR focused games, you don't speak for me
Zombie games are REAL fun in VR tbh, I'm really excited for this but I do hope it has a non VR option too
It's exactly what I was looking for. Every FPS franchise should evolve into VR :-)
I'm probably not remembering correctly but I remember when l4dvr news came out a while ago that it was a mix of vr and non vr gameplay.
Couldn't end the decade in a more disappointing and monkey paw way than Valve going VR only for the games you've spent a decade waiting for.
I guess I should prepare myself for the inevitability of Portal 3 being wasted on VR.

Yes but that was shelved, this may just be VR but I hope it's both
At least there's nothing particularly like L4D, with the Director and all that.
Does free movement VR work without making people sick? Left 4 Dead where you move from set point to set point by teleporting sounds odd. I know HL:A has the option. But wasn't sure if it would work for everyone.
It's 100% gonna happen, and the games are 100% gonna suck when you reduce all the nuances, granular VR mechanics to button presses.
I imagine playing a L4D game in coop with my friends, watching as a wave of zombies come at us and we begin to shoot at them in terror/laugh. I am reminded of the adrenaline of maps like the mall and the music concert stage from L4D2(?) and all of the zombies coming from down and upstairs, having to run but then stop, turn and shoot, which is something that would be much more natural on a VR version. Or perhaps even healing a player who is down while still shooting with the other hand at the zombies coming at us. Throwing ammo at a player or these kind of actions...
Perhaps they'd have to tone down the speed and overall quickness of the zombies for a VR version(or lower difficulties) because that could send someone to a hospital and my guess is Valve wouldn't want that, hahahaha.
free locomotion is pretty much the only way people accept movement these days when it comes to VR games. Only people that are brand new to VR or can very easily get motion sick ever even try the other option tbh
