G-Rebels

I’ve only played about 10 minutes so far, entirely in VR mode using PCVR on a Quest 3S through SteamVR with a USB 3 Link cable, but my first impression is very positive. The controls are extremely easy to pick up, and the VR support feels surprisingly polished. Menus are simple to navigate inside the headset, and I especially love that the ship’s gun turrets and crosshairs are controlled by your head movement. You simply look toward a target to aim and engage it. The ship itself is controlled with the keyboard, but the layout is intuitive enough that I had no trouble using it without looking down. After finishing the tutorial, I started shooting at a few random ships and quickly found myself in a dogfight with the police, which was pretty fun. I didn’t experience any VR nausea, although I’ve logged many hours in No Man’s Sky VR and rarely get motion sickness anymore. Players who are newer to VR may have a different experience. The graphics are also quite good, especially considering the game is rendering a large, detailed city while running in VR. So far, it has been very enjoyable, and I’d recommend giving it a try if you’re a VR enthusiast. I’ll update this review once I’ve spent more time with the game.

Ich bin völlig begeistert von dem Spiel allein schon in der Stadt rum zu fliegen und Sachen zu entdecken macht richtig Laune.

Not bad..

Nice flight model and graphics, but the glimpse of the game world is the one city and one other section with two storyline missions. As for open world, if you stray from the mission area you get blown up for trespassing. Finished all the content in a matter fo hours. Play the demo. Early access is only one chapter with a couple of story line missions. and a bunch of repetetive side missions. I'm all for funding games through early access but 30 or so bucks for a couple of hours gameplay is a bit steep.

This game rocks. I only have a 3070 and it is real smooth on insane graphics. The missions are great the city that you get to see in the first chapter looks amazing! It's fun to just fly around collecting bounties and upgrading the ship too. I'm having a blast. Two thumbs up! However, if you compare the current content of this game with other similar games such as Everspace 2 the content is very limited. This made me hesitate to buy at first but after playing the demo and having a blast for several hours I thought I should give it a shot. My thinking is since the developers are so actively working on this the content should keep growing and eventually the price will be a real bargain. The global map shows a lot of boxes that should become new areas. After 8 missions at main mission giver you are notified that you have completed chapter one. I got there in five hours of gameplay. This is the only disappointment that I have so far. If you try the demo and like it - buy it let's keep this game going. It has so much potential and works with all kinds of sticks as well as VR. A little note here; If you find the graphics of your ship or the city looking like they are low res. as mine was at first with the demo make sure to up the graphics to your native resolution. I had to do that and then the game looked great!

It's a 50-50 about whether I would buy this game or not! There's lots of bugs and some of them persist into missions. For example, I tried flying to Eden and got a trespassing warning - I tried flying back and got bombed and died. Future missions would then jump me to Eden either in a weird preview mode with no ship and sometimes I just sit there waiting to die with no ship. Navigating missions via auto-save is very unintuitive. I also got a mission where you just die and have no idea how to avoid it! The mission characteristics also feel too inconsistent - skill doesn't come into it much and upgrading your ship doesn't look like anything was upgraded in combat - if not worse! Overall the graphics are great and it has some potential with some interesting mechanics but it has quite a way to go before being complete! Even though it's early access it still feels a bit too early access!

Demo sold me on this game instantly. While the early access is very obvious (the city has potential, but right now is very empty and feel more like a model for movie that an actual living city), it has a ridiculous potential, due to its original setting and frame from which we are experiencing the world. I just really hope that the developers will not treat the writing as an afterthought. Also. This is what I want from the future of VR! A great game on its own terms with natively added VR functionality, so that I can pick it up even when I don't feel like using the helmet.
