Which part though? The headset tracks fine, so that suggests the camera works? Im baffled
Hearing that Aim uses Micro USB to charge makes me want to knock over a magazine rack.

What are you expecting? USB-C?
You are expecting PSVR users to have or pack mini usb for Move, micro usb for DS4/PU and usb c for Aim?

Nope. I would avoid this at all costs.
Are you okay with spider monsters popping out of the ground and jumping directly at your face?
No. I would also avoid watching the new spider man movie in 3dI have pretty bad archnophobia, am I gonna be able to play this?

Bollox it anyway, was starting to get hyped about this. How realistic looking are they? Is it just one section or is it a persistent enemy?
Honestly I think you should just play it. Combat your arachnophobia, only in Farpoint where you can simulate something that close to fighting a spider while having a bad ass gun to blast them.
It's like how I'm super scared of spooky stuff, for some reason I was able to play Brookhaven without any fear because I'm holding a gun killing them. If it's something like RE7, where most of the time I'm helpless, that definitely won't help.
Persistent enemy. They look like spiders crossed with xenomorphs. Quite terrifying, and there are large ones.
Have you tried different lightbar settings? I've only infrequently had that issue and I use mine on the lowest setting
Hah when I was playing it last night I kept letting them jump up to my face because I was having fun shoving them away with the gun.Are you okay with spider monsters popping out of the ground and jumping directly at your face?
Farpoint is the perfect crossover between arcade light gun shooters à la The House of the Dead and old-school First Person Shooters. The result is a jaw-dropping experience that truly becomes unparalleled thanks to the power of VR and to the quality of the Aim Controller peripheral: this might be the first full blown traditional game 100% built around VR, and despite a few shortcomings you literally won't believe your eyes. In its own ways, Farpoint truly takes the shooter genre to a whole new level: if this is not a killer application, we're pretty close to that.

Thanks, that's actually good news. The less real-life they look, the better.
Is this not widely available or sold out already in germany? It's not available on amazon and only sporadically with some shady online shops...
Pretty much sold out. Computeruniverse isn't shady, but also expensive (103 including delivery). You can try Amazon Italy, they still have stock and are pretty cheap (81). Disc should be european, but if something is broken, you might have to send it back to Italy, because Amazon Germany could refuse. Also it will probably take a few days and you need a credit card.Is this not widely available or sold out already in germany?

Regarding the fear of spiders issue, how does this compare to the spider level in Rush of Blood for those who have played both? Cause that level was the most terrifying thing I've ever played and the only level I wouldn't touch again.
8.7 from me on IGN Italia.
I really, really, REALLY enjoyed it, as a fan of VR, shooters and light gun games in general.
As a self confessed arachnophobe I found the Rush Of Blood level slightly worse due to the fact you can dodge/run/hide in Farpoint whereas you're static in RoB. Saying that the smaller arachnids still manage to make me squirm and jump even after 3+ hours.
For me the smaller the video game spider the worse the fear (as they seem more real). The larger enemy encounters haven't bothered me so much TBH. If you've watched Starship Troopers without crapping yourself then 90% of Farpoint will be fine.

Only had chance to play this for an hour at the end of the night cause it was the Mrs' birthday. So came downstairs after and said, "New game's awesome, quite intense!" and the Mrs says "Yeah we could tell; half the street could tell: you were doing a lot of shrieking; god knows what the neighbours think; its not very masculine"
Bollox it anyway, was starting to get hyped about this. How realistic looking are they? Is it just one section or is it a persistent enemy? I just saw one big one in the trailer that looked like it was made out of rock and didn't have 8 legs, I can handle that.
Totally disagree. Actually the exact opposite. This game is extremely pedestrian if you play it like a normal FPS with a DS4. With the Aim, it's a freaking revelation. My heartrate went way up and I started sweating while playing with VR and an Aim.
I love changing the weapon by pointing the gun up, feels so natural.
Holding the gun up to where my eyes should be and seeing that red laser sight within the ironsights still blows my mind for some reason.
Yes there seems to be a shortage. It was available somewhat cheap on ebay until Sunday (~93), but now that reviews are out it seems to have sold out further with prices going up.

Is there mic support in the coop mode?
Thanks for the tip, but Amazon.it says it'll take until May 24th - 26th to arrive. I'll hold out a little longer and see if amazon.de will get it back in stock
Played the first hour, its a cool experience but nothing mind blowing. Im sure it gets better but I feel like just spent an hour walking through the same cave shooting little spiders and a few of their parents, and then a couple of giant fuckers for good measure. Impressed with the graphics, pretty good for VR. Tracking seems good, although my gun isnt perfectly still, it kind of 'jitters', is that normal? I have wobbles issues with my VR anyway so I guess its linked.
TBH the first 1-2 hours were the most fun for me (played 3.5 hours total). After that the combat goes a little downhill when some other enemy types appear IMHO. Despite a fear of spiders I did enjoy the intense initial fights, having to switch targets continuously.
I had the very smallest amount of wobble but generally readjusting my position or moving toward the camera slightly seems to alleviate it.
If you're talking about the boss I think you're talking about, yeah, that fucker wrecked me a good half dozen times before I finally got the upper hand and took it down.Got to the first boss - couldn't beat it but yeah what a fantastic game. That thing looked fucking incredible. Sooo huge! It's a gorgeous looking PSVR title and gotta say, they little critters jumping at you all makes it feel really kinetic with you spraying them with bullets.
Yeah, I'm not terribly impressed with some of the later enemy types and how those encounters shake down. The immersion, atmosphere and the satisfying controls (with the Aim) are keeping me in for the long run though.TBH the first 1-2 hours were the most fun for me (played 3.5 hours total).

Hmm, I may return it in that case, and pick it up further down the road when its a bit cheaper.
Just picked up the AIM bundle last night! Excited to dive in later today.
Quick question: what's the battery life like on the AIM controller? Is it fully charged out-of-the-box?

After I finish the campaign, I'd be up to do some co-op. Shoot me a friend request if you're interested in playing sometime. My Gamer ID is DaveB1980
