I'm clear hopefully I am I have a microphone right here it's a boom Pole it's on a boom pole right now so the audio might shift as I walk around the room you might see it that it doesn't sound as clear over here as it does when I'm more centered but this is my first vr livestream ever I have never live-streamed a virtual reality experience before so forgive me for all of the technical difficulties that are probably about to ensue but hopefully everything's okay for now I don't see any dropped frames in xsplit as of now but let me know how everything looks how it sounds you should be able to see me on the left side of the screen and then some some gameplay footage on the right I've got the HTC vive right here all set up and ready to go I am in my office right now as you can see I've got my - my two sensor my two sensors mounted in the appropriate positions on opposing corners of my room and we're gonna be playing some hover junkers today however junkers is basically kind of like the Wild West in the future and you're essentially Manning a single hovercraft and you roll around a map you know an enclosed map basically killing other hovercraft pilots and and picking up loot along the way to armor your vehicle get better upgrades weapons things like that it's a very straightforward game but it's super fun especially with the HTC vive and you're about to see why if you don't already know the wonders that it entails but let's say no we're not doing VR porn Joker I'm sorry that's gonna be on this that's a special thing I have worked out just between you and me man I'm not gonna show that to the public right that's that's you and I is let's let's not talk about that right now but yes so everything looks pretty good on your end according to you guys so I'm going to go ahead and just jump right into it and see what exactly I can do I've only played this game about three times before I think this is my fourth time playing and so I'm not very good I get lucky I got lucky the other day I've got a pretty good kill streak for a while but that's probably all gonna fall the shit now that I'm live-streaming in front of an audience if you know you know how that goes so I've got the headset on right now and forgive me I'm not going to be able to read or reply to any of your comments and chat simply because uh well you know so I'm gonna go ahead and feel around for my headset I'm using a steel series H Wireless there is a connector for a 3.5 millimeter audio jack that's that's connected directly to the HTC vive however I just found going Wireless in this case is just so much nicer when you already have this big-ass cable that you have to worry about coming straight from the headset so the wireless works for me go ahead and situate these alright and I got to go reach around for my controllers reach around pay okay so um it's really quick I just want to make sure that this is all tracking correctly in YouTube on the stream okay let me read your comments really quick okay cool none of you are writing in chat so I'm guessing everything's looking good so far okay I'm in the target practice section right now which is which is pretty cool I'll see see if I remember how to do this so if you're all my weapons I basically got you know you go to hand hands are useful for pressing buttons and things such as that that's a target that I can try to go up up wasn't reloaded let's try to this again yeah yeah yeah okay so things are working this is a really cool game and takes advantage of the motion controllers very nicely so for example you've got this revolver here and once you're out in order to reload you basically hit the the TREC the trackpad circular trackpad once that opens up your your chamber and then you simply use your thumb and spin it around the trackpad in a wheel until all of your bullets are now reloaded in the chamber and you simply flick the flick the the chamber back into place with your wrist it's it's so intuitive that the first time I actually let my wife try this I didn't even need to tell her to flick the chamber back in place he just automatically like just based on response was like alright this sense to go like that and sure enough it works and it's pretty awesome how they've done it there's also the shotgun which it works kind of similarly not really like this gun because there's only three bullets but in order to reload press the trackpad and then three you just tap it in three more times so one for each shell and then you simply cock it back like so so again let me just show to you yeah it's it's it's pretty pretty fucking sweet okay let's let's get out here and actually try to play some games how do I do this and press here to leave it also takes advantage of the room scale as you can see I'm standing in my room and have some a bit of freedom to walk around and do things essentially the hovercraft that you're usually piloting is pretty small but you can still walk around in that limited space to make it really feel like you're aboard a ship and not just sitting in a cockpit for example so we're gonna go ahead and enter at our own risk this is one of my favorite parts about this game is the lobby area the matchmaking area it's just really cool how they've done it so there's there's this guy Gunther Gunther he's the the bartender the robotic bartender and it's just it's just too easy to abuse him there's like no reason why you shouldn't you can throw them over the counter you can literally pick them up and just start you know you want them around and whatnot see if I can throw him out the window yeah I'm not I'm not really being the best role model for all you young uns right now don't don't treat people like this or robots they don't deserve it but this is just I laugh my ass off like and just couldn't stop laughing once I first saw this and figured out that you could do all this stuff to him it wasn't until other people were actually in the lobby with me in this bar with me when I just started seeing him getting the shit beat out of him very sad poor poor Gunther and there's also cool things you can do here like this is just a matchmaking area but it's like a minigame in itself there's a whole a bunch of little things you can do it so for example you can umm well he's he's seizuring out now so you can like try throwing something in the and the basketball hoop up there I am a horrible shot but ideally if you can get something in there all right this gives you an indication of how good I'm gonna be at this game so I got a point right there so you can you throw things in the hoop to exit you simply just hit the exit sign man even a juke box which you can pause or change the track which is super cool it does have boy so this is a multiplayer game guys I should have mentioned that obviously you probably figured that out once I said the word matchmaking but here you can see I've got my little server's going on here so we've got three people in this server and that looks that looks pretty good but apart from that you can choose your character there's only three three selectable characters for now different ships so you can't get a larger ship and I do believe you can have multiple people on a single ship so you can have one person essentially piloting the ship and another person you know primarily on guns on the on the offense so we're gonna go ahead and jump into the server just a single man hovercraft oh wait am i oh I didn't want a medium ship I want this one the Gopher oh did I accidentally select the big-ass ship I hope not all right so this is just a loading screen and I think you guys are over there I'm pretty sure the cameras over there I've kind of lost my bearings no it's not it's it's over there okay so you guys are in this area how's everything looking so far similar looking all right huh huh some one way what's happening what's going on oh no what's what's happening what's wrong with the stream is it not working uh no good thing I looked you can't see shit now why the hell isn't this working can you guys hear me still it's been frozen since I entered the lobby let me go ahead and try refreshing this guy's hey is that working now you see my head moving should be working all right saved it all right hold on I think it should be good now let me know come on rip rip rip frozen yes yes yes okay everyone's saying that it looks good now okay you can hear me yeah Wow there's a lot of people watching right now aren't there there's too many of you guys get the hell out of here this is supposed to be intimate okay works now we're back in yeah I'm gonna try to check it as regularly as I can guys I'm gonna try to check the chat it's really difficult when you're in the headset and you're you're kind of locked in you know with the with the uh with the whole shebang but I'm gonna do my best every you know every time I die maybe I'll take a glance at the chat although it's it's easier said than done it really is okay so good for now okay then I'm gonna I'm gonna go ahead and proceed do I have your guys's blessing to go ahead with with trying this out I'm gonna put it back on now putting the headset back on engage but you know what's interesting is now now I'm getting a little bit of like stuttering when I look around which is kind of strange now why is that why is that why is that what's happening I've been waiting for too long so I'm gonna go ahead and just reboot hover junkers I think cuz maybe the game just froze because it's it's really not perfect quite yet I mean it is retail ready and things like that but if there's a couple bugs in the game as I'm sure there are in many of the launch titles for the HTC vive as is gonna be the case for the oculus rift it's just nature of the beast guys so I'm gonna go ahead and restart however junkers let's reboot dish up let's boot into there there there dad dad dad yeah yeah so that's a good point about the the eyeglasses you know how how's the comfort level with with eyeglasses these aren't like huge frames and they're not the smallest either they're average size and you can definitely get away with playing in them it's perfectly comfortable it's maybe maybe adds a little bit of tightness to to your comfort level however I'd say the biggest issue with having glasses at least for someone like me is that I tend to get very hot very easily I sweat a lot you know there's steam coming off of me within the first five minutes of playing a game like this so what happens is my lens is actually fog up and at first I thought it was the lenses on the HTC vive but they're actually pretty pretty fog resistant from what I can tell they don't fog up too easily it's just the lenses of my glasses are not are not eyes are not as awesome so that would be one reason why I'm really considering replenishing my contacts in the near future so let's see do we have do we have hover Junkers what's going on here come on own app is already running my ass steam son of a bitch bitch I do not see hover Junkers at all Plan B are you dick no we're not doing any fat chick VR porn I told you that's that's reserved for me and Joker all right that's our that's our sexy time alone wow this is really bizarre I feel like the Cowardly Lion from Wizard of Oz maybe perhaps I will try relaunching steamvr steamvr is also it's got its quirks you know it's not perfect for the most part I like it a lot but it does F up from time to time I've had a few crashes and games like hover Junkers for example job simulator a couple others all right let's launch this shit come on come on the components from the yeah okay all right that's back on saying a component is not working properly which is total bullshit because it was working fine a second ago come on come on sense it since the things come on sensors laser beam me up huh what come on what is this okay the key component of steamvr isn't working properly how weird it was working fine a second ago what is theis let's try restarting steam then oh man I'm already sweating ballsack and I haven't even started playing the game yet it's crazy it's also because I usually have the AC running in here but it's it's kind of noisy for you guys so I turned it off I don't know why you're all fapping together in chat but it's very strange and maybe it's just my PC this is I should also mention this is the first time no this is the second time I've streamed to this particular system I was streaming to hotline when I first got the vibe but for streaming and stuff I decided to hook it up to the same PC that we use for awesome hardware which is airing tonight by the way and that's the the silent night build silent night PC is handling this at the moment and it's totally equipped to do it I did swap out the GTX 960 for a 980 TI so there's that and if you hear that rumbling noise that's the garage door opening underneath me look my grandpa's fiddling around in the garage okay that looks good good watching turn the controllers on battery life on on the controllers is very good I would say five to six hours of straight game play and they recharge in you know an hour and a half tops maybe two maybe two hours but very impressed with the with the battery life there okay it looks like steamvr is working now it's decided to work high CPU usage detected let's see what we're running at so we're at about yeah we're almost maxed out here on the on this here CPU usage so it looks like that's working I'm gonna go ahead and let's get this started get this party started y'all we do very strange way that you actually log in here you have to look into the thing boom boom boom and I should probably get my headphones on headphones where are you headphones uh-huh alright come hipbones I music let's go enter I forget now I haven't figured out yet how to activate the little camera so that I can actually see without having to take my headphones off or my headset off I should I should have robably figured that out before the stream but I really think about it but is it black again wow that's really weird I have to keep refreshing it in exploit just having a hard time processing it okay so we're gonna go small Sparrow looks great looks great let's go into this one now it's four people join ready so in about ten seconds maybe I guess we're gonna jump it in here pretty soon but the hell he's saying alright put my headphones on how's it looking on your end looks good back on okay and my headphones are on my freaking cheese so disoriented while I'm waiting for that for a sec let me go ahead and clean off these glasses cuz they are they're all nasty now they're all nasty Wow I did I did preface this video by saying that there would be tons of technical difficulties and I'm so glad I did you all you all can't say you didn't expect it you weren't warned okay what's going on why why is it just stuck at 10 see here boom boom boom oh it's really hard to do this without actually being ready i readied up fool why the hell it's doing that alright let's go ahead and put this on grab my hands boom boom all right I'm gonna leave the lobby because the lobby is being a dick right now let's try this one join this one's actually going down okay and Who am I I am the robot I'm the robot in the small sparrow hover craft let me just make sure that this is gonna blow it up for you guys okay it looks like I'm in and you guys are seeing things clearly alright I'm in there we go alright so I've never been on this map before it looks like we're in a lagoon or something so this is kind of like your multi-purpose tool it also serves us like your engine key so you use it you basically pull down the trigger of the vibe and point it in whatever direction you want to go and the first time I ever did this I have my body literally shifted forward to try to counteract the balance as my mind was convinced that it was actually moving pretty fast speed on the surface but it's a really weird sensation doing this for the first time but you get you get the hang of it pretty quickly should probably pull out a gun I usually like to go through revolvers Oh what am i doing this comes with loot I have loot in here don't I so let me get the loot out this is basically just stuff that I can put as a wall of defense up in my ship I can place it wherever I like this is kind of a shitty job that I'm doing here but I don't nothing I guess okay good that's real was it later anyway gone out to kick some ass let's kick some ass alright looks like some shits going down here oh oh ha boy huh damn it all right I got kilt you got me if someone's really good second second boom Oh backpack guy he's kicking ass right now he's clearly played this more than I have all right so there's also a loot scattered around and it gives you it gives you more shit like this like the barriers that you can place on your hovercraft as well as a little defensive shields that you can actually hold and move around looks like there's a guy over here Oh where's ya oh this is the guy that's really good where's yet got him huh so yeah this this game made me I'm super sore the other day after playing it for like an hour straight just my knees were completely wrecked from all the crouching and stuff but now what you need to do Wow all right good oh wow you got me you got me good that time whoever that was dizzy dizzy Technicolor okay let's try to find some loot for a sec take a step away from all the chaos and hold on before we do that how's the stream going stream still going I'm a zhing amazing Oh sky coming towards me the hell away from me I'm gonna go this way oh it's nobody got over there oh he's coming to get me he'll know shit let's try to mess with this guy damn it oh I got crossfire huh that's cool I have four kills it's it's okay I guess whew I am I'm getting a workout that's for sure I know it doesn't seem like much because you know I'm kind of standing in one little area but you are moving around quite a bit and when you've got the headset on plus the headphones and you know you're moving your arms and stuff it's uh can get pretty tiring though it's just so fun you don't really mind too much this guy oh I saw a wee bit to the mag a little bit close right now whoa where'd it go Oh shitty plate I can't tell if he's joking me out if I'm lagging I'm probably probably both asshole what hey all right oh hello nice nice dizzy that stuff's giving alright alright let's get the hell out of here it's really weird when you go over like a little hill like when you change elevation like when you're going like this and you and you go down it really messes with you it's cool feeling now I see you guy over there I'm coming for you coming for you the hell god I don't know if that counts Oh too oh shit that's that's game oh my goodness okay so I got my KD was five and four I got the second most kills dizzy just raped everyone but I'm pretty happy with that score they might hurt my fourth time playing and you can see those people here in the lobby you could see their glasses and stuff you can do other little gestures like you can give them thumbs up like yeah thumbs up buddy or you can flip them off I have robot hands so it's kind of weird but that guy's doing that hang loose sign sure like that but go ahead and check on the stream really quick to make sure I keep thinking that I'm facing you guys how's this how's this looking how's this looking and sounding guys is everything looking all right it looks it looks good on from here it looks like we're still streaming we have zero drop frames which I'm happy about alright cool let me let me take one minute to clean the the headset here and my glasses I'm dying of sweat but it's so fun I can't I can't stop now I can't stop I'm gonna do I'm gonna do at least one more maybe maybe two more rounds see what we can do here oh I'm already in game mardian all right I just I just remember that I didn't even like have any limp last game so you do start off with loops yeah there huh uh-huh and a little guy cool can you put it in front no I don't think he can all right it's just on the size oh shit my god this guy's not put his armor at all we love damn you this is a Wiley here's a way anyone it's moving around I'm hitting shit there'll be some good gameplay video shit the hell's this chick doing Wow I cannot believe my coffee right there beautiful damn shield and who else who else wants to mess with this yeah Oh Luke all right so there's loot here and try to pick up the loot close it like that use your tool opens it up oh I got company hurry up hurry up what I put this here no I cannot here I can put that there and I can put this nowhere here ha ha okay oh just in time OOP key the key what I guess so all right most be going hold on we're loot I don't even need to look right now you kill people I must kill everyone yay all right is that a guy just like it oh nice nice nice nice all right doing pretty good how's my first step not bad not bad uh-uh go this way oh shit bitch is that oh there's a guy whoa whoa my screen just went blue let's get a piece on hold on hold on I'm seeing nothing I see blue I'm blind why is it all blue there's nothing but a blue screen right now guys oh here we go I think my headset must have lost tracking at some point I might need to reposition my cameras a bit I really threw me off I can get it back though now the crossfire when they see olive blue again it's blue I can't see anything why why shit man out oh I'm getting so raped getting still messed up right now dudes I can't see anything what's happen it's back it's back again why isn't keep doing that move again oh man this is not happening before I'm thinking maybe it's um I haven't moved the cameras or the sensors never so what it's saying that these are not tracking properly the lag is real come on guys come on come on dudes this is bullshit okay headset says it's connected but not tracking and of course now it's working handed but I go in somehow we put this over here headphones now bitch it's just so weird oh do you see when I put my hand over here my screen goes blue I just went blue I can't see anything again okay alright I'm gonna stand in the middle and in front of the room very much that's gonna be my strategy even then the hell's going on so weird yeah yeah man I'm sorry guys this would have been more promising had at my tracking that's not diet every minute or two it's really unfortunate see you Oh kamikaze that shit ten seconds all right excuse me enough plane to do nothing well I guess I still didn't do too bad considering I was blind half the time nineteen six have a feeling I would've gotten closer to first place huh oh yeah alright so I am still a little too shows you how much experience I have in this game yeah okay alright guys so is it still watch this whole time I'm not even streaming anymore oh cool you know what um later up see you later I'm gonna go ahead and try repositioning the can't the sensors really quick I'm just gonna give them a little exactly what its gonna do Matt okay you guys think it's a loose cable I don't think it's a loose cable because it was really it was really happening a lot when I was moving my controller out in front of me I think it was in this area actually I completely lost my bearings I don't know if I was facing this way or somewhere else at the time but um I just gave my my sensors a little tweak hopefully that fixes things we're gonna do one more of these bad boys whoa and see if that changes anything and then I'm gonna shower and then burn all my clothes that I'm wearing right now all right what do you guys think so far pretty cool right pretty cool okay and my frickin headset is over there my headphones in case you guys didn't know the vibe has a built-in microphone so you can VoIP and stuff without having you use a microphone elsewhere like on my SteelSeries headset here which is pretty cool let's go to view this one join join join join ready fire it up let's do some tracking testing so ok looks decent I should really open this no no no no shit are you coming from oh no man and they have two dudes on that ship that's not fair well I feel like such a loser team deathmatch okay stick them out one at a time again okay you know I don't like the team one so let's let's back out of the teams cuz I don't think that's really a good thing to show right now also I'm getting my ass kicked how the hell do I get out of here that's one thing I never figured out how to do is how to exit a game mid round but not go to the oh quit quit match ha ha ha really ok because it's got to people see how it's got like to to people icons there I think that means it's um two person per ship max so we'll go to this one ass xxx looks like more like a vr porn server but I'm game we'll give it a shot ah jeez hope I didn't just butcher the stream right there still going strong alright boom boom here's something I hear something it's um gonna itch in my eye it's not good it's itchy oh shit all right we've got company here haha go back away what we're right finally got killed all right not bad I think seems to be a bit better in this round I haven't gone this screen hasn't gone blank yet it's good look wow that was quick yeah lone gunman he's pretty good well lag Holy Mother of lag what's happening got her she wasn't really doing much oh it's like there's a gangbang going on over here someone's getting initiated let's try the shotty quite as powerful as I thought wow what if I would have knocked him out probably in like two or three shells but seems kind of bullet spongy to me let's do one more shot it all tangled up in this mess ah are you at bro what oh my god it could also be because I'm suffering from major lag another thing Wow okay Oh all right one minute to go already jeez what the hell is going on over there you just spawn means that the like make sure no one's sneaking up behind me Oh God lone gunman you're a bastard eh ah oh my god the lag is real yeah it's probably maybe because I'm streaming while playing a freaking VR game to youtube but okay I didn't do so horribly not as bad as Ino dudes not bad considering I was lagging something oh that hurt kind of actually it didn't hurt it was just very Jory someone make a gif of that pronto that was amazing um okay let me just see if you guys are actually still with me I don't know where you guys are Oh oh my god welcome back to reality Kyle woo that's that's also a cool feeling is when you finally take the headset off after playing for like a good 45 minutes to an hour plus you really feel like you you are just teleporting back into reality it's a really trippy feeling but um damn guys I think if I play another round I'm probably going to melt and I'll just turn into a puddle right here on the ground which would be very exciting to see you however uh it's not something I'm really into right now so on that note I'm gonna close out this video sorry for all the technical difficulties but I really just I was feeling pretty greedy just playing this locked in my room and just enjoying the vibe experience by myself and not really sharing it with you guys so I'm really glad I got to do this as off-the-cuff as it was so hopefully you enjoyed it let me know if you want to see more VR stuff like this I know it's it's still technology but it's not necessarily DIY PC however I'm more than happy to make as many VR videos as you guys want to see so just let me know in the comments feel free to test me like on the video as well and I'll see you guys later tonight for episode 61 of Awesome hardware with Paul at Paul's hardware so thank you guys so much this has been a lot of fun I'm gonna go shower hope you all have a good one peace now I gotta go awkwardly close up this stream
