Doesn't work that way. I claimed the game doesn't seem to be worth 10 million. You took offense and claimed otherwise. The burden of proof is on you. I don't know what you do for a living, but it sure aint a lawyer. The best you could come up with is "there was a full game released" good effort, D+.

I also don't appreciate people touting the 10 million dollars as if that is some kind of bullet point that can be used to demonstrate how great of a game it is. We have all seen that the best games come from small developers (Onwards) with no obligations and suits to please with big numbers.



How much do you think the game is worth? 1 million? If a price breakdown estimate is too much (I admit it is a pain in the ass even when taking a best guess), how about just a general lump sum figure?

It is entirely possible that the 10 million still hasn't been spent yet. Maybe we are only seeing 5 million worth of that 10 million, with more free updates coming?

And I'm not taking offense, I just don't get the argument that "this didn't cost much because I don't like it." And it kinda seems like that's what you're saying. That's fine if you think the game is crap lol - I didn't make it and it was free anyway.

Ive just played the game and you can choose the direction you face As you teleport-whats the problem? With 2 mounted cameras I have no problem with 360 degrees. 980ti can support at least 1.5 🙂

The problem comes in if you're not facing front (in real life) when you teleport. It orients based on that teleport arrow relative to your front position (the arrow on the floor beneath your feet). So if you're facing left of front when you teleport, you'll be facing left of that arrow when you arrive, rather than facing the arrow direction as you would expect.

The devs have already commented that they will be releasing a patch so that the teleport arrival direction will take into account the HMD facing direction, so that people playing in a 360 setup can teleport with more predictable results.

If someone with a 3rd sensor (for example) is facing the 3rd sensor when they teleport, the game ignores the fact that the person is facing the 3rd sensor.

The game will teleport the character as if they are facing the 2 front sensors. Thus, the player ends up facing the wrong direction because they are looking at the 3rd sensor in real life instead of the 2 front sensors.

It is odd that so many different people are calling this a lack of "360 degree support"   😘

Yeah and the thing I don't get is that people with a front-facing setup will still be able to perform this "360 teleportation" because the update makes teleportation HMD dependent. Technically, even a single sensor will allow this 360 teleportation.

Semantics lol

Yup, they've realized the design decision mistake that @Zenbane insists on defending :wink:

..and once again.. they need the friggin' month to fix it.

hah well apologies for appearing to defend it. I agree with the need to allow people to face any direction with their HMD when teleporting. I still don't get how that one thing means the game doesn't support 360 but maybe my brain got too fried this week from excessive VR 😛

Oh and @danknugz another thing to add is that part of the $10 million for Robo Recall was to make sure it remained an Oculus exclusive for X amount of time. So you aren't wrong to question how much was really spent to build this. I'm still curious as to what dollar amount you would be willing to place on the game.

nope just saying it didnt seem like 10 million. i like the game but they make it tough, with the teleport nonsense (facing the wrong way) and the hipster synth wave crap

It got old for you, it's new for me. Why is it hard to see how they spent 10 million on this? I can easily see that this looks extremely polished and well made. Your complaint about teleport has nothing to do with the budget, it's a design decision.


Never mind danknugz. On another thread, he trashed a game and then said he was "just joking." So therefore, anything he says can potentially be a joke, or, put another way, nothing he says can now be taken seriously.  B)
