But when you mix the control and tracking difficulties with the lack of levels it’s just not worth your time. When you see the fun that can be had with the normal version of Surgeon Simulator, you’d think a VR version of this game would be a sure bet. This only time I’ve seen a VR control system this shite was from The Martian VR Experience, which I am still trying to forget by having many nights at the pub. When using certain surgical tool I could make up a name for, I suddenly found my virtual hand going absolutely mental and causing me to temporarily slaughter this one gentleman. This wasn’t only present in the menu system, but this also happened during the game itself which for a game under a time limit is a big disappointment.Īs well as the tracking in the play zone being a tad temperamental to say the least, I also had some technical glitches just with the controls in general.

The problem I had specifically was with the camera, which for some reason refused to collaborate with the game’s “play area” and then whenever I attempted to reach out to start selecting stuff my hand turned into a skeleton’s, which is used to symbolize when your hand is out of the “play zone” and your movement are no longer being registered. There are different challenges you can work through, but all come off a little bit too short in the end I guess this could be acceptable as this is a VR game so it may be more difficult to make more levels, but still not up to the thorough level standard as Driveclub VR.Īfter you get past the difficulties of setting up, which took me a lot longer than other games like Batman VR and Job Simulator took, you’ll get to the actual game.

Don’t worry, it isn’t as serious as it sounds the cartoonish style and comical blood stops this game from being the things of nightmares. Surgeon Simulator: Experience Reality puts you in the position of a surgeon (duh) and puts a gentleman’s life in your hands as you must operate to the best of your ability. But this game suffers from various tracking issues that can sometimes be so bad that you’ll just end up getting frustrated and give up. Unfortunately, this excitement and interest one may have will be short lived after you try any sort of movement you would expect to do in VR much like how Job Simulator allows you to throw things about.

The patch will be going into a review process with the good folks at PlayStation, so at this point we’re unable to confirm when this review will be completed by. General performance improvements - you’ll see better frame-rates and tracking. Improvement to skeleton hand collision - you now won’t get an instant skeleton hand and you’ll have a bit of leeway when interacting with objects in the game, making it easier to pick up things and be more precise when saving livesĭamage increased when using the circular saw - you’ll be able to use the tool to crunch Bob’s bones more quickly The game’s controls will now default to ‘absolute’ mode - this provides 1:1 tracking based on your movements, rather than an extended reachĪdded an option for playing with the old relative control mode - we think the new ‘absolute mode’ will make lots of people happy, but some people asked us to keep the original controls as an option, so it’s now possible to switch between the new and original modes We’re currently very close to finishing a patch with the following updates: We promised to continue bringing you updates on the incoming PSVR patch for Surgeon Simulator: Experience Reality and I’m happy to share the latest.
