Performance is terrible. Playing on a RTX 4090 and in the headset the game has constant screen tearing. Only happens in this game. Every other VR title I play works perfectly fine. The Battle Royale mode is dead. They wasted a great chance to create the best VR Battle Royale.

> joins a server after waiting for 8-12 minutes to join one (doesnt matter if you deploy as a scavanger or a contractor)
> Walks a few minutes and loots a bit
> Gets shot in the head from god knows where
and you may be asking: But what about the BR part of the game?
well i COULDNT EVEN GET IN GAME, i have waited like 30 minutes or so multiple times and it couldnt find a single server WTF
So at least i could try out the guns on the shooting range for 16 bucks, which i have to admit:
this guns feel THE BEST from all the games i played (pavlov, into the radius, contractors, etc...), they have some cool attachments which could be useful in a match. Man and the reloading... 10/10, so slick, so clicky. Another cool thing: when you put the bullets in the magazine you have to press the "a" button so it feels like you are actually pushing in the bullets
So now im looking forward to buy ghosts of tabor in hopes that it isnt this dead.
Just do yourself a favour and do not buy this sh*t, unless it is on 90% discount or something

it seems really cool but im unable to enjoy it since when i loaded it i was met with a really jittery screen and while i have what i would consider good vr legs the jittering was really anyoing and i wasnt able to enjoy the game becouse of it but i was able to fix it by changeing to a older version of steam vr but then i encountered another issue where the game was blurry so caveman studios please fix your game otherwise i might be going to tabor
[btw im on quest 3 using steam link and all other games work fine]

Insane headset delay; making you feel like the world is spinning around you with SteamVR on Quest 3. Unfortunately cannot recommend this great game because of this fatal flaw.

Truly great game. The mechanics alone make me wanna c** in my pants.
Seriously though, it feels really good to play especially the gunplay. This is probably the first VR shooter I've played that makes you not seem like your fighting a stroke when aiming. (at least comparing them to pavlov and tabor)
My favorite part of the game is just how nice and tactile the guns are. Between loading new mags and putting attachments on the rails wherever you want, It just feels incredible.
My only real complaints are also being worked on currently as of writing this review. (minus some minimal issues I've been having mostly involving the physics of items sometimes)
Those being an occasional glitch where items will fall through the floor and the lack of maps.
Definitely recommend if you like the idea of tarkov, but don't want to completely dedicate your life to it.

I don't write reviews much. But this is hands down the BEST iteration of a VR extraction shooter to this date. It's the closest experience you can get to VR Tarkov at this time. The game is hard... yes. If your a solo like me it is definitely harder by yourself. But it takes some adjustment like any other game you play to figure it all out. Don't be discouraged and really understand the armor, bullet types, where to shoot and when. You'll appreciate this game more when you find out how much content is in the game. So much things to loot (which are all useful), guns are awesome and maps are great. Can't wait for future updates!

8/10 Needs a multi player. Pre-game lobby for teammates to share gear and stories. Or.
Even a hub map for people to shop trade and meet up.
