I assume this must have been a bit painful to write, Survios being the team that brought us so many amazing PSVR titles. Some, myself included consider them to be among the saviors of PSVR, when no one else was really making us quality games. I sincerely appreciate and respect your honesty here, it's yet another reason my loyalty lies here.
I would say the same for Supermassive. After all the innovative things they've done including the enjoyable Until Dawn: Rush for blood they followed up with 2 shit games Inpatient and Bravo Team.
Hi. I know, I'm 3 years late to this, but I just restarted the game (after the patches) and I'm enjoying it. I can guarantee you it's not that easy now, I actually died a lot before I got the hang of the game and had some upgrades done to the weapons. Got it on sale and so far I don't regret it.
What other games have they released?
Thanks for the review, I like how honest you are even though you interviewed one of the guys that made it a few days ago. I joined your discourse yesterday and was advised to buy the persistence instead for a scary October game, that looks a lot better.
If the made head shots count and the upgrades mean something. I'd totally pick this up.
@GL Dave Yeah maybe, but a machete smack to the middle of the head should do it :)
You clearly haven’t played the game..
@@aaronlaplace5902 yep. That's kind of in my comment. :)
@@alwynt3190 my point is that you’re criticisms aren’t very correct and you’re judging something based off looks alone
@@aaronlaplace5902 I think it looks good.
Taking the time to get the head shots for a tactical advantage is kind of a staple of zombie games, and a big deal in the walking dead i think.
I'm sure it's good. But this is what it would take for me to want it :) that was my point.
Really hope Servios can get back on track. We don't wanna lose them as vr Devs. Creed and sprint vector are easily in my personal top 10.
shenmueso sprint vector is so good
I do really wish that they add a kind of like free roam option in the levels where instead of running from the heard you travel to a large map, lots of walkers, fixed combat just to scavenge. No time limit just scavenge and i think that maybe also if they were having a problem with weapons breaking during battle maybe in the armory they slowly degrade and become useless making you wnat to go out and scavenge to find what other guns you can find. Also love the show
Think u would like saints and sinners
Had high hopes for this one, but it just doesnt feel right compared to S&S. I kinda love the way the weapons actually feel like your holding something and how the game lets you know when you get attacked from behind. In Onslaught you see a bite symbol icon and thats about it. Pretty dissapointed. Also the guy playing Rick sounds like hes trying way too hard to sound like him and it just makes it sound bad. I kinda like the idea(s) they had for this but it just doesnt feel right compared to what S&S did with The Wlalking Dead.
Also, i read it was suppose to have co-op, but that got cancelled later on. Maybe that wouldve helped the game a lot. Or maybe less linear levels with more of a focus on scavenging or finding other survivors instead of running away from the horde mist and picking up as much stuff as you can along the way.
But thats me.
Maybe others will like this focus on arcade style shooting and killing zombies more then what S&S offers.
@@LilScotty10 yeah I have it and love it but the cartoonist style isnt really for me and i really like the walking dead tv show and I wouldn't mind playing a good game with my favourite characters
@@Mr.Fortunato saints and sinners is a great game, i dont personally like the cartoonist style they have and I love the wlakingdead TV show so playing as Daryl and stuff is cool but i wish saints and sinners and onslaught had a baby and maybe it was saints and sinners gameplay but with onslaught visuals, weapon degrading, stamina, harder walkers and more walkers that would be a great game holy
Lol when I seen that it takes multiple shots to the head to kill a zombie with a gun I was really confused and I thought to myself “wait a minute this is Walking dead not the RE2 remake”😂😂
Thanks Bryan!! Onslaughts biggest issue was always going to be the comparison with Saints and Sinners, which was so good and released so recently that the developers had a massive hill to climb to differentiate and improve upon. Probably going to wait for a sale at this point!!
Nice video man you’ve become my vr guide on all the good and bad psvr games! Only had vr for a good year exited for psvr 2
Hey thank you so much dude! :D
Yeah i subbed after watching this video. Bought this game digitally as a pre order and had real high hopes for it, but its just not a good game at all. Dissapointed since i bought it digitally i cannot get a refund so..
Oh well, hopefully them updating it will make the game a lot better. Pretty new to VR myself and apparantly they have released some good games in the past. And next time ill just go here first before buying a VR title haha
Nice review. My next VR purchase will be either Star Wars or Until You Fall. I’ve still got four games on backlog
- Sairento (currently playing)
- Raw Data (Survios :)
- Immortal Legacy
- The Persistence
Thanks for the Review, its a shame this couldn't be at the level of S&S, that game and Firewall are the 2 i rotate between most often. Hopefully Squadrons can give me some fun this month, so looking forward to a VR flight game, especially those TIE fighter sounds.
Thank you for being completely honest for a game I know you were excited about. You have my respect for this honest review.
Immediate click on notification!!
I just had to witness this massacre.....
You can always count on Bryan for an honest and fair review. Thankyou sir!
This sounds like it needed way more development time. AMC (or whoever else holds the license to TWD) probably had Survios on a tight/fixed release schedule.
Thanks for this review Bryan you saved me from wasting some money 👍🏻 I always rely on you for information before I buy a game
Im sooo disappointed in the game. Im a die hard Walking dead fan and was really hyped after the trailers looked very promising. Im so sad that there are so many problems and that the story is bad. I wait if they patch it up.😥 But also Im thankfull that TH-cam warned me about this. Without TH-cam and you I would have bought it directly and many others would have to.
You’d really like saints n sinners then
This is a great reveiw, almost exactly my take on it too. I would add that the surprise zombies behind you are infuriating.
That was actually a more positive review than I was expecting from Viewer Takeover; still a mild sense of regret on pre-ordering it but oh well
6.4 is too generous. I'd say 5 out of 10
I think powerful melee weapons is not a negative, IF ranged weapons would be the same, I mean if I can kill a Walker with one headshot or one knife to the head that’s cool, gives me options, but if it’s 3 bullets vs 1 sloppy stabbed knife, then something is off.
You’re probably right. I’ve been going back and forth about how to balance the weapons, but it’s not like pulling headshots are super easy with guns so that makes sense. :D
@@WithoutParole Maybe a 1 stab knife is still good but it should be more dangerous to pull off letting them get close enough. Like the timing needs to be right or you'll take damage instead. So if you're low on ammo, you are forced into a more dangerous but survivable situation, making guns preferred.
UNTIL YOU FALL!!
Best game at least since Iron Man VR. ;)
Man Bryan great job on another great video. You really held back the dissatisfaction you had to make a great review . Hats off !
Mad to all the game cats tooooooooo!!!! :)
Did those walkers even attack you? Seems like they're just casually walking up to you, perhaps to ask why you are stabbing so many seriously ill people in the face...you monster!
F
This is one of those reviews that is worth every penny to watch. Glad I did... I had no idea how badly different it is in comparison to the other game. Thanks a ton.
A great honest review Bryan as always.
I figured the bland look is a tie into the show which is always bland and "yellow piss filter" all the time. Glad the supply runs look like a bit of fun.
Would this have being better if it came out before Saints and Sinners?
When he said "Right?" at 0:44 my heart dropped
I was so close to preordering this lmao thanks bryan
So just stick to Saints and Sinners?
Got it
Great review, you nailed all the main issues here.
Thank you Bryan. Please keep up the great work.
It would be awesome if the game was like The Last Of Us in scenery form with actual lighting and atmosphere to it. I was about to do a video on this game until I saw it is not worth the $40AU to spend on it.
"What a shitload of fuck!" - AVGN
I sort of can't see how this was ever going to go well after S&S. Hearing the interview with dude last week I was like "uuuhh-oh -arcade action? based on the already convaluted show? No Stamina limit? This is not going to go well; Lets wait for Bryans word." Thank you, boss!
I thought about preordering this game but something told me not to. I'm glad I didn't. I was torn between this and Saints and Sinners, I think I'll go with Saints and Sinners. Thanks for the honest review. I may look at this later if the devs can sort out the issues.
Thanks for the review Bryan! I will put this one on the backburner next to Vader immortal and wait until they are patched
I really had high hopes for this. So bummed. Great review 👍
I actually LOVE this game. I love the arcade gameplay and rag doll physics. I love that u can pick someone up And gut their stomach. The blood and gore is great And the zombies look amazing. I think the zombies and characters look way better in this then saints and sinners. U can get headshots when u upgrade the gun. I personally enjoyed this more then saints and sinners. Yes saints and sinners is a better game but I find myself picking this one up and playing more.
So i actually pre ordered this while listening to the interview yall did with one of the devs from survios. Honestly im somehow having a fair bit of fun with it despite the fact that it takes virtually no effort to kill anything. I havent taken the knife out of my loadout as it is dingle handedly the best melee weapon. As far as ranged weapons go the crossbow is the safest option to go with as you can get an upgrade that prevents you from needing to reload. Despite the tracking issues, i surprisingly rarely ever had an issue when using the knife with the blade forward, as it doesnt really mess eith the tracking too much or at least from what ive seen. Im about two hours away from platinuming this game as i write this, but this gets a 6/10 until there are some patches
Great stuff, Bryan. This game is really in a tough spot given the competition. Let's see if future patches can do something for it at least. I definitely appreciate Survios cranking out PSVR titles, so it would be nice to see them do better than this.
For anyone who isnt finding enjoyment in Onslaught I figured out how to make it fun!! First..play Ark Park for 1hr..then go bk to play Onslaught..it will give the best possible feeling of playing this game afterwards.
Thanks for the review. If it goes on sale in a few months for $8 like most Survios games do, then I’ll pick this up then.
First of.. love the channel guys great work. My personal opinion on this game is that it is better then Saints and Sinners. Wish they had made your base free roam to explore the buildings and free roam no timer on scavenger hunts, but overall I think its decent enough. For 30 euro its well worth it.
I fully agree with you on the rating, I played it myself and have found some enjoyable moments but the game needs major improvement
Very solid review. As usual!!! Thank you. Just dodged this bullet.
Imagine being a new PSVR player and buying this after reading great S&S reviews
Seems i am in the minority but i found this game feaking awesome fun to play. (I am just about to get platinum).
The first few hours rushing through housing estates with weaker starter weapons were defo an adrenalin rush for me.
Later you can upgrade weapons (and yes the Pistol can then do 1 headshot skills if your aim is right), i loved the shotgun auto reload myself.
It does miss "fire" weapons, and yeah i guess they didnt bother with dynamic lighting for same reason.
It does get easy later on, and i wish there were harder levels.
But this is probably in my Top 5 VR games played in the past year.
Once again, you've given an amazing review! Seriously, thank you. You saved me some hard earned money. I do want this title but I'll wait for a sale.
this is basically Survival Instincts in vr....
Hopefully, they do patch this to make the handguns more effective. Maybe a patch for PS4 Pro users can improve the lighting. I doubt that there is anything that they can do to improve the main mission gameplay. I have not played it yet so I think I will be waiting to see what gets improved.
Yeah if they patch this and tweak a bit then might jump in at some later date. I remember when Arizona Sunshine came out that was a mess too. Can Friday get here. I want me some squadrons in VR!!!
I spent a little time with supply run so far. I actually thought it was great -- for what it is.
Firstly the play control is terrific. It's also the third game I played this week (along with Until You Fall and Swordsman VR) that make me think yet again, why couldn't S&S map buttons for strafing? It would have made a world of difference. I usually dread two-handed guns but Onslaught has absolutely the best feel to them so far -- they're no trouble at all. I don't really know where these bugs are (yet -- haven't gotten too far yet). I mean, S&S (to my knowledge) doesn't even have a control option that makes it possible for you to hold a weapon above your head and walk forward at the same time as pointing the motion controller backwards makes you move backwards -- something that would have been useful for sneaking up on walkers and doing a stealth kill with melee weapons. Onslaught does, and in general has WAY tighter controls.
I didn't think S&S was scary at all -- which is okay. Onslaught isn't either, except the supply run itself is pretty thrilling. The walkers themselves I also thought were quite a bit scarier-looking than the cartoony look in S&S (again, I don't think either approach was bad). As far as an arcadey zombie experience I'm feeling like Onslaught kind of nails it.
I haven't played too much yet, but so far it seems like Onslaught is suffering a lot from comparisons to S&S. It's really different, if not some top-tier masterpiece, but I'm finding it to be entirely solid for what it is and so I'm not offended by it being a different kind of game than S&S (whereas I tend to agree with the more critical reviews out there for S&S). I'll have to see how the campaign goes but in the meantime I'm really enjoying the precision of the controls and unique, thrilling premise of supply run.
I'll be waiting for a sale. Or a major update. They could add co-op and save the game in my opinion.
Man thank you for the video I along with most people I knew were worried about these both being released so close together. I was hoping this would be a fun arcade shooter with a decent story but I'm just glad saints and sinners is already out
Pre ordered, then applied for a refund while watching Viewer Takeover. Never even played it. Might get it (again) if it gets some decent patchea...
Thanks for the Review/VT/First Impressions on this!! Probably gonna pick up Until You Fall instead!
Daryl legs tho lmaooooooo
Actually I have a lot of fun with this game. I think it's much better than a lot of people say. And yes, I also played and liked Saints and Sinners and all the other bigger zombie games.
Do u recommend to get the digital deluxe version ? Whats the difference? There is big gap in price
sony really needs to release move controllers with analogue sticks so games feel much smoother.
They need to tweak head shots,.. because it is ridiculous you can basically knife your way to victory,.. while it takes 3-4 headshots to take enemies down,.. Otherwise I kinda like some aspects of it,.. at least you can actually move a bit faster. (Think S&S's normal movement is so damn slow it is ridiculous and sprinting stamina depletion is even worse,.. Makes it really tense,.. but it is ridiculous.)) Hope they add a full on arcade mode with scores or something poping above,.. and guns need to get fixed. Need to finish Arizona to compare,..but that game has some of the stupidest control schemes ever made,.. so if they fixed that somehow,.. I'd probably love it.
I just bought this on the ps store for £5 so am looking forward to trying it
Great review Bryan! Thanks for what you do, now on to the next review. :) You have what? Three more? Four? XD
I've lost count lol
Thought this was going to be what everyone wanted from arizona sunshine but it turns out A.S is everything we wanted onslaught to be.
This looks like the first ever mobile game coming to VR
Literally one of my favorite games killing zombies feels so sick the stabbing feels great I've played and beaten saints and sinners several times and this is a nice change for a while I don't care what anyone else says great game 👍
Hey bryan i canceled my preorder but im thinking about getting it do u recommend it
If Survios can patch all the problems, definitely. But for now I'd wait and see if that happens or not...
@@WithoutParole ok
@Warslave yea ik should i get saints and sinners tho
@Warslave Does saints and sinners get better though? I'm about 2 hours in and it's a bit boring and frustrating. Too much stealth and scavenging for me, I want a bit more action :/
@@leehamlet5900 im thinking about getting it do u recommend it
Star Wars Squadrons is coming. This can wait for a sale.
Perfect review. This is spot on.
I 100% Platinumed this game and for me as a Huge Walking Dead Fan it was 8,5/10 for me 🥰😍 but for a regular player 6,5 is fair... the game felt uncompleted for me... I wished for more story using more characters, more game modes: If there was a Survival/Open World mode where you could leave Alexandria, explore than come back to resupply/Rest ideally with dynamic events and online Co-op mode... etc. But I have fun with it for what it was and enjoyed it pretty much 🙂 one weird thing was when I played it on PS5 (PS4 PRO before) I found out the ingame texts were much more sharper and easier to read but I didnt found out anything about PS5 "Enchantments" 🤔
"Survios takes a stab at the Walking Dead..." Ha Ha
I never clicked a review so fast in my life
I thought it would be worse then 6.4
I gotta be honest, it was a tough one to score. I had a TON of complaints, but I still wanted to push through to the end and I think I enjoyed it more than the rest of the TH-camrs out there.
PSVR Without Parole generous
Did they ever fix the game
Survios may have a good record of producing decent VR games, but if you look at the scope of those games, they aren't big or even mid tier budget with all the game design elements a bigger, more ambitious game demands. They basically focused on doing one thing right, and there's nothing wrong with that. This is their first game where they were handed a big task, and failed to deliver on all the individual aspects of that task to make up a satisfying whole. They didn't even need to do anything special either. Just borrow from stuff that was already there, like the Saints and Sinners team wisely did, and then tinker with it to make it make sense in VR, like the melee combat for example. This could just be chalked up as a learning curve for this studio, or it could be them just being "found out". Time will tell. You're only as good as your last one in the game industry.
Who is down for some boxing in creed or a firewall squad
Do you believe patching just the combat, would ultimately raise the grade to at least 8?
Just here to see if this game is worth getting
Just waiting on squadrons now please be that good
How long is the Saints And Sinners campaign? I'm just looking for a fun zombie game with plenty of content.
For me it took about 15 hours but a lot of people finished it much faster.
@@WithoutParole I'm a couple of hours in and wouldn't call it fun though, it's more of a grind/survival game. Does it become more fun? I find it quite clunky and clumsy
You’re not finding S&S fun? I had a total blast with that game, and definitely not clumsy or clunky. I do think it gets better as you go though so I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you.
It's worth 30 bucks!!
It's not all that bad.. and it's in VR.
If there was no saints and sinners we'd be a little easier on this
I was playing the game yesterday and they should fix his, I was attempting to kill a walker and it froze and I couldn’t kill either
What was the red thing when he stabbed the walker with the hand
I for one liked this more than S&S. I’m not into survival horror and in the headset, not into RPGs. The more fun and wacky combat is what sold me. The only thing I dislike are the firearms.
I think headshots in general don't take down walkers, but I'm pretty sure shots to the brain always take down a walker
Just bought it for 5 bucks and I actually like this game , it's not that bad .....
I love Saints and Sinners , probably my favorite PSVR game but Onslaught is a fun mindless zombie killer,
That's it that's all it is but I had a blast with the 6 hours it took to beat , well worth the 5 bucks .....
I like the hell out of this game and feel it’s a great contrast to saints and sinners.. my issue is most of the ppl trashing this game obviously didn’t play it, they just don’t like what was shown, hands on, it’s a solid game, I remember how bad drunken bar fight was, now it has coop and better tracking... give it time... those scavenger missions are fun
What's that thing beside the aim controller at 5:40
I like onslaught because the guns are better i always had problems on s&s because how logical they try making that it sucks
6.4 out of 10 really? That is super generous. I literally stood there were 13 zombies came at me I didn’t move and I just swung my machete and they all died. 3 out 10 more like it.
No objections here. For me the score lets me put aside all the issues and simply assign a number based on the amount of fun I had. That said, 6.4 might still be generous even by that definition.
I got carried away and pre-ordered. Whatever though, there is some fun to be had
I preordered this game since the gameplay trailer looked good but it’s not bad but it’s not good as well
It’s good enough for play the story but not good enough to return to for me
So which game do you recommend the walking dead saints and sinners or onslaught?
Well I gave Onslaught a 6.4/10 and Saints & Sinners a 10/10. But that’s the only hint I’m giving you lol. :D
Ok thank you😂 by the way love your videos❤️
Yea I pre ordered and I just feel the game can be a 8 or 9 if some stuff was fixed
Liked to see some running zombies how about a new game called the running Dead
Where is the repetitive level design for scavenge run?
I don’t get it, during the infinite testing of the game how did they not see that the guns are broken and the knife is OP?
When I saw the VERY first shots of this game a while back I shit all over it, said I'd never buy. Between then and that most recent trailer there was SO much improvement that I actually pre-ordered it a couple days early. So while it still might not be great, I have the confidence that given some time this game will have a couple patches that will make this a pretty sweet game. In saying that, I've still had fun playing it and I don't regret my purchase at all. (Try to to compare it to S&S while playing)
Brain shots DEFINITELY need to be one-shot kills. I love how you can blow their jaws off and sides of the head, but brain shots HAVE to put a walker down immediately.
The fact that it takes MORE than a single shot to the head to kill a walker, when the show has shown time and again that one bullet is what it takes, is absolutely unforgivable. Likewise, to not have Andrew Lincoln as Rick is REALLY jarring.
The one thing I will give Onslaught over Saints and Sinners is a personal thing: YOUR WEAPONS DON’T F*CKING BREAK. Seriously, weapon fragility (I refuse to call it weapon “durability”) is one of the worst mechanics ever introduced into video games. It breaks game flow, creates an unnecessary additional stressor, and for SURE breaks immersion.
For example, first melee weapon you get in Saints and Sinners is a screw driver. A Phillips head screw driver. It breaks after killing about 5 or 6 walkers.
In REALITY, I have had the same blue handled Phillips head that I got from my dad as a Christmas present back when I was 4. I have dropped that thing, it’s been run over, it’s been through HELL. And guess what? It barely looks used. I guarantee you that I could kill THOUSANDS of walkers with it and it would STILL barely look used.
All in all, if Onslaught made its guns less janky and more powerful, or Saints and Sinners got rid of weapon fragility, we would have a perfect zombie vr game
Well dropping a screw driving and piercing a head a skull are a little different. And because of the exact point he made in this video If the weapons didn’t break what reason would you have to do anything in the game. Games aren’t fun when they are too easy especially a good zombie survival game. Ur trippin man s&s is and prob will be for a while the best vr zombie experience
Can you play this without the vr controllers?
This should have been death road to Canada vr.
What in the T-Virus is going on here!? 2-3 headshots to take down walkers!? Mannn this ain't Resident Evil lmao.
