Given the different terrain levels in the game wouldn't that completely mess with your brain and you'll end up in a heap anyway!?

Firewall Zero Hour's Operation: Nightfall update is dropping today at 5pm. Might be worth a revisit for anyone who hasn't played in a while - new maps and full UI overhaul plus bug fixes. Looks like they are moving in a R6 Siege direction with it

Jerichoholic · 21-05-2019 3:27pm

Are there any single player modes at all with Firewall?

coolisin · 21-05-2019 3:34pm

Im seeing a lot of tweets and threads on constant crashes so looks like they have made any bugs worse.

Firewall has private vs computer matches but there is no levels or single player.
The bots can be smart enough and its just a wave shooter really then.

I wouldn’t really call it a wave shooter as such, if you are attacking you need to get to the laptop. The enemy AI are tricky bastards too and the new update has supposedly given them an overhaul with realistic player styles (so expect extra snakey flanking and tactics from them

). There’s also now 9 levels to choose from and attack/ defend for each. It’s really only there to learn the ropes before you go online.

I saw that about the crashes as well but it’s very up in the air as to what is causing it, some seem to think it’s only Pro affected while others think it’s a PSN database within the game that isn’t calling right and crashing it.

Only one way to find out, charging my gun and downloading the update now.Will report back in a bit.

Edit: Working fine here for me with no issues! Pot luck that first match in put me in the new Hangar map, it is savage

UI will take some time to adjust to though, they moved everything around haha

coolisin · 21-05-2019 4:44pm

No the AI is pretty good, but the training is a little like a wave shooter as you are either guarding or hacking.

Hacking you need to stand there at the laptop and keep the enemies away, but in fairness they will toss in flash bangs and use tatics and generally do not rush you all at once.

Oh right just saw alot of posts on blue screens etc.
I will give the update a whirl I am a big fan of the game BTW.

I was going to pick up Everybodys Golf VR, was looking forward to it. But just before I checked out, I read the description page once more. There's only 3 courses and 2 modes, practice and course. No MP, no 'career', just a practice range and 3 other courses. Seems a bit too empty at the moment, especially for €30. I hope they update it, release more content and I'll most likely buy it then. I'm not usually a MP person outside of CoD/BF, but it would work really well in this.

It's not really empty. You unlock something each time you play, so it's kind of a career mode. 3 courses are loads, they are all good.

It's absolutely amazing to just go around playing golf in your living room. I'm totally blown away.

Blood and Truth is out tomorrow

Honestly looks like it could be one of the best VR titles to date

Aye .. fingers crossed. There's no discount with pre-ordering I think, so just gonna wait for the reviews.

There was a fiver off in Smyths which brought it down to €30 I think, but it was a limited offer.

Cannot wait for it, London Heist blew me away when I got the VR so a full 6-8 hour version of that is going to be brilliant. Trying so hard to ignore the fact its out for now though - the mrs is away for a week in July and I want to wait until then and play this through in one sitting

27-05-2019 3:53pm

Reviews are out tomorrow too. Will post them here when they are up.

mrcheez · 27-05-2019 4:18pm

Saw this last night on ITV2 while watching Star Wars. Impressive, you don't normally see ads for specific PSVR games.

I got Superhot over the weekend - really enjoying it so far, feels like the kind of game that VR was made for.

RocketRaccoon · 27-05-2019 5:34pm

Can't wait for blood & truth, London Heist was excellent so I have very high hopes.

28-05-2019 7:58am

Current Metascore of 80 out of 27 reviews

"SIE London Studio delivers yet again with another must play PSVR exclusive in Blood & Truth, which combines a compelling story with very enjoyable gameplay in one of the best AAA VR experiences to date."

Any ideas why a game set in London, made by London Studio gets released in the US first before anywhere else???? I thought this was out today

Jerichoholic · 28-05-2019 10:16am

40 ain't too bad of a price if it's that good. Might get it at the weekend.

Nope, I see loads on the PSVR reddit that were able to play since last night. The irish PS store shows May 29th as the release so only gives option to pre-order at the moment. Trying so hard to hold off buying it until my week off in July, but the thought of having it for the bank holiday weekend is making that very very hard indeed

I think anyone who enjoyed London Heist will be moist with anticipation for this game

Think I'm gonna have to cave and get it this weekend, a couple of cans and a few hours on this sound like a great start to the bank holiday haha
