From potentially some of the people that made the first Medal of Honor.Oh man now I'm just picturing those undercover missions from MOH1 but in VR.... sweeeeeeeeet
After they were told to shelve TitanFall 3...
They were told this? You got a source on that one
Fortunately, almost any Oculus exclusive can be played on any other headset through SteamVR.
Yes.
This is not a Premium Titanfall Product.
Also, the humor in Respawn working on MoH is not lost here. The video game industry is a weird beast.
Huh that's dope. I only have PSVR but that's good to hear considering the entry point price of headsets.Fortunately, almost any Oculus exclusive can be played on any other headset through SteamVR.
thanks for the confirm that Quest will be able to play it through USB.Yes.
Rift (and Quest once it receives PC VR via USB update next year).
Yep, it's a big reason why people are real chill about Oculus exclusives nowadays. They can buy the games in the Oculus store and play them on whatever headset through Steam.Huh that's dope. I only have PSVR but that's good to hear considering the entry point price of headsets.

You got some wires crossed buddy.
Its early but based on what's coming out of OC6, any Rift title will be playable on Quest via the upcoming Oculus Link USB-C feature.thanks for the confirm that Quest will be able to play it through USB.
The founders of Infinity Ward were developers of Allied Assault that then later left IW to form Respawn.
They didn't mention overall length but in the Tested video they do say it will have at least 50 "levels" and multiplayer at launch.And it even has the same graphic fidelity as the old games!/s
It looks okay but I fear it will just be another 3 hour throwaway experience like all these other VR games. This needs a full blown campaign and multiplayer to really be worthwhile.

A rough gist: Vince Zampella and Jason West created Medal of Honor: Allied Assault, which in my opinion, is the high point of the entire franchise and one of the best (especially multiplayer) WWII shooters ever made. After MOHAA launched, Vince and Jason left and founded Infinity Ward, where they created the Call of Duty franchise and continued to work on those games through Modern Warfare 2. After a bunch of BS with Activision, Vince and Jason founded another company, Respawn Entertainment, who are responsible for Titanfall. While Jason left Respawn in 2013, this is Vince's (well his company's; don't think he actually does development anymore) first shake at a Medal of Honor title since 2002.
Yes.

Full blown campaign. 10-12 hour campaign, 50 levels, up to 180 devs working on it. It's going to be the first "AAA" VR game.
I bet it's entirely intentional.'Above and Beyond' is such a fun title given the history of the team.
Probably not going to happen. The whole point of the Rift and Quest is to get you in to their ecosystem. This is why Quest is being prioritized since it's self contained and is basically an Oculus console. Makes no sense to put their headset and games on another ecosystem without some major quid pro quo (like putting Iron Man VR on the Oculus store).Facebook really need to get the oculus rift on xbox or PlayStation, there games are starting to appeal to me, but Im not going to spend like £800 to upgrade my PC so it will work well with the Rift.

I think if/when Microsoft gets in to VR, they'll just use an Xbox specific version of their WMR headsets. Or just make the next Xbox compatible with existing WMR headsets. That would be the easiest way for them to get in without much risk.Yeah your probably right, but if Facebook and Microsoft weren't so stubborn they could really help each other out.
Facebook would get the installbase of xbox, and Microsoft would get a selling point of VR but without the risk, they both win.

Just came in here to double check this, thanks!Fortunately, almost any Oculus exclusive can be played on any other headset through SteamVR.
How smooth of a transition is it playing games not designed or intended for your headset? Do you not really have to worry about it and just play, or should I expect to be fiddling with settings and controls per-title?Fortunately, almost any Oculus exclusive can be played on any other headset through SteamVR.
