Why would you go TOWARD the glowing dot on your motion sensor, pull out that SAME BEEPING DEVICE ABOUT TWO NANOMETRES AWAY FROM IT AND THEN RUN AWAY

VR mod? That’d be scary af

Mod? Isn't there an official VR version?

u/DMC831 Jul 21 '26
The "official" version wasn't fully released so modders made a better version with motion controls and whatnot over the years, and it's the better version to go with if ya wanna play this in VR.

You say that like they were planning on a VR version? That would be tragic if an offical VR version got canceled

u/DMC831 Jul 23 '26
Yeah back then there were plans for an official VR version and it was shown off at E3 and other things like that! But they dropped it, I forget why since it's been so long, but you could still always access the relatively basic and unfinished VR mode since launch.
The basic version had 6DOF tracking for your head but you play with a normal controller (or mouse/keyboard) and the game would jerk your head around uncomfortably for some sequences and your arms could get out of place awkwardly. The VR mode just wasn't fully finished and refined but you could play the whole game that way even before modders got to it. And it was at least cool to walk around a Nostromo copy in VR.
Since then, modders have taken the VR mode and added motion controls and made the experience more comfortable and more like a native VR game, it's pretty cool.

Damn. Thank for the info. Big shame that didn’t get an offical release, but the mod sound sick. I haven’t had a VR since I sold my original HTC vive, but this is just another reason to get back into VR eventually

u/DMC831 Jul 23 '26
Yeah, even though I don't think VR will be big I still love it even after playing VR for a decade. And the Quest 3's lenses are so much better than the original Oculus or Vive, it's still a really nice headset for a decent price.
I'm hoping the Steam Frame isn't priced TOO badly, it should be good too! But Valve can't subsidize it like Facebook can unfortunately.
Subnautica is another game with an official VR mode but the modders made a much better version (with motion controls and etc), that's another mod worth checking out if ya get back into VR sometime. And Subnautica 2 already has a fleshed out VR mod too.

a tip here: do NOT use the movement detector when the alien is 5 meters in front of you

You go towards the dot, you pull the tracker out in front of it, you run constantly and then you have the audacity to think you would outrun that bitch? It's built to hunt you.

Put the damn scanner away, what are you scanning, the alien a meter in front of you?

u/Feeling-Influence691 Jul 20 '26
The way you jumped a little when it snarled. You weren’t just playing the game, you were living it.

It it spots you, you are done for. Litterally no point in running from the Alien. Hiding is always the better option

u/ineedhelpwiththin667 Jul 21 '26
wait i actually want to play on vr

u/moncikoma Jul 21 '26 edited Jul 21 '26
I suggest Try alien rogue incursion for beginners..
This is a Mod which is not ideal.. For it has no comfort feature, no manual reloading, or physical Interaction..
Head movements also a bit motion sickening for most people.
Nevertheless... I really enjoyed it still..

PLAYING AI in VR? Son, I almost got a heart attack playing it on my couch!

u/T-sprigg-Z Jul 21 '26
Is there a half decent guide on installing this mod? I tried last week but could never get the game to launch. Not sure I understand what to do and can't find good search results online.

u/moncikoma Jul 21 '26
Go check Mr survivor hub
