It pains me to leave a negative review, however i must.

Planet Coaster 2 has the potential to be great, however at the time of writing it is inferior to Planet Coaster 1.

Planco 2 feels like it's an early access release, it's buggy, missing features and content. The problem is, this is a full priced full release.
The pathing and UI issues are well noted. Frontier have removed the ability to train your staff (unless i'm missing it), security guards are also missing. The Scenario Editor is also missing.

Sandbox parks are smaller than in Planet Coaster 1, there is also a guest cap of 6000. The game has obviously been nerfed for consoles. To add insult to injury they release a disgustingly priced day one DLC ride pack, basic rides that should've been included in the full release.

Now for some positives. The pools and water rides are a great addition (when they work). The lighting improvements look great. Scenery building is better, the options for creativity are wonderful.

Overall, the game isn't bad, not at all, it's just disappointing and inferior to Planco 1.

Frontier, if you happen to read this, don't give up on the game, the potential for greatness is there, and for the love of God don't start selling us Planco 1 features as DLC for Planco 2.

Valve didn't know it at the time, but Half life 2 was made for VR. It's perfect.
The mod is great, it feels like a native VR title that was built from the ground up for the medium.

Amazing in VR. The only thing holding this back is that the cockpits aren't clickable.

Early Access Review
Solid, addictive sim lite. It's pretty much independence day in VR. What the game has going for it is that you really do feel like you're sitting in a cockpit, there is a good sense of scale and speed. The world is believable. Getting a feel for the aircraft takes some practice but that helps to give you a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment when you manage to shoot down the enemy.

The Graphics are pretty good, not perfect but pretty good (the mothership could certainly use some higher res textures).
The sound design is good, the soundtrack is solid, it works well in the background and doesn't distract you from the game. What would be nice in a future update is a bit more ambient radio chatter. The current radio chatting when an enemy is shot down is quite immersive, a bit more of that would go a long way i feel.

The game has improved a lot since i first purchased it. I'm particularly happy with the virtual hotas.
Performance is fantastic, although that was never an issue, but it is worth pointing out that the game runs smooth as silk.

What would be nice in the future is a few more maps with more variation. At the moment all three maps all look and play very similarly.

All in all this game is definitely worth picking up. Unfortunately it appears to be burried in the mound of half arsed crap in the steam VR market, making this a real underappreciated hidden gem.

A charming and fun little game, just be aware of your surroundings. I've managed to simultaneously smash up the virtual world and the real one.

This is quite possibly the best thing i've ever played.
This game blew me away from the get go. The instant you step into the world you're blown away by the stunning view.

The environment is beautifully crafted, the amount of times i stopped play just to look around and take it all in is uncountable.

The story is gripping, the gameplay is great fun, the sound is fantastic. Half life was truly built for VR, but only now can we realise it.

Honestly, i'm blown away.

It honestly feels like i'm playing Half Life 2 for the first time again.
The hype is real people.

Early Access Review
Probably the best VR zombie game out there amongst the sea of contenders.
Playing co-op is great fun, no other game apart from onward has managed to keep me in vr for hours upon end.

One note to the developers though, i encountered some sort of ammo bug where if you reload too quickly your magazine becomes empty.

Absolutley fantastic. Immersive and emotional, well worth 15 minutes of anyones time. More experiences like that would be well received.

Early Access Review
One of my favorite VR games.
Think of Onward as Rainbow 6 in VR (R6 1-3, not the crap new ones). It's very well polished and gives you a bit of a nostalgic feeling while you play it. I'm particually fond of the Subway, Tanker and Suburbia maps, they're well designed and as i said before, pretty much feel like R6 maps.
(If any Devs read this, more maps please, the more the merrier).
