- The 23 best VR games for PC - 28 September 2017
Here they are then – the best games to play in virtual reality…and those games are “watching football,” “drinking”, “a nice cup of tea”, “fleeting emotional connection to another human being” and all those other everyday activities you believe to be real, as opposed than a simulation you have been experiencing since you first plugged your frail, mollusc-like form into a headset 19 years ago. SPOOKS! But, should you persist in maintaining this fantasy, let’s go one level deeper and talk about the entertaining, satisfying or otherwise nifty games available for what is the current VR state-of-the-art in your imagined world: the HTC Vive and Oculus Rift. The rival headsets are getting on for a couple of years old now, and in that time there’s been what can feel like a ceaseless storm of new games for them. How to choose…

- 1.04 Release Notes - 24 April 2017
Greetings, Starfighters! 1.04 has been pushed to the main branch. This has a few minor fixes, including those from 1.03 (which only lived in the beta branch). Fixed healing icon causing log spam (and stutter) on some machines Fixed heavy weapon ammo icons on allied fighters Special projectiles like ECM will handle losing their owner or target (no more hanging in space) Fixed some sound channels not being affected by the volume control (such as UI beeps) Split the camera strafe controls out so they can be bound by separate buttons instead of just an axis. If you had rebound these controls, they may be reverted. If you run into any issues, report them on the forums. Use this post to help you find your debug information: http://steamcommunity.com/app/283160/discussions/0/305510202679777602/#c133258092252958627 Good hunting!
