Star Trek Bridge Crew

[startrekkin58]

This is probably a dumb question but I’ve seen conflicting answers. On both Best Buy and Amazon’s websites, they say the game can be played without VR but on the front of the game, it says VR required. Which is correct? I don’t have VR but got the game as a gift so I want to be sure I can play it before I open it.

The developers should have added more starship bridges. Klingon Bridge crew, Romulan Bridge Crew, Terran Empire Bridge Crew ( You can assassinate people in that game.) Enemy spy on Enterprise Bridge Crew (You can sabotage consoles).

Thanks for that. I guess the article was so recent, I couldn’t find it lol

Here's an article that says a free patch was just released so you do not need VR to play the game...

The amount of online users seems to have gone up quite a bit since the patch made the VR not a necessity. Ysed to have to wait 2-3 minutes sometimes to fill the four places for online, not it tends to do it in a few seconds.
Anybdy not playing it on VR is really missing out though.

Seems utterly pointless to me. Like buying a luxury steak pie and only eating the pastry.

Is there still anyone playing this online? I tried numerous regions last night and couldn't find another player anywhere. Very disappointing. Maybe it was just a particularly slow time. I'd have expected this game to have a bit more longevity in it.

I recently bought this game. But, have yet to really try it out.

I hope you have better luck than me finding players. I've let my Plus lapse now, the only game I could find with players that I play regularly was Onrush, and that wasn't worth papying £50 a year for. Closing down the communities really killed off the MP meetups.
Ubisoft could change the way the regions worked. If they update it to 'preferred language' instead of by region, it would probably make it easier to find players. Some new DLC would help as well to give it a kick. It's a great game and should have more life in it than this.
It's hopeless as a single player, other than the first two missions. It's impossible to control the whole bridge crew by yourself for the more demanding missions.

THere's a game that interested me called Werewolves Within, but I have a rule now of never buying online-only games, they just don;t have enough life. I'd only have one if it came with PS+.

I have recently discovered Hawken and Switchblade, which can be played without Plus, and I'm enjoying them quite a bit.

I would love to see a Terran Empire version this game!. A Terran Empire spy is on the bridge causing havoc. Klingon and Romulan Bridge Crews. The only drawback was needing an Ubisoft account setup to play the game. I couldn't start it because of the stupid ubisoft account setup.

We need next gen PSVR to break into the double figures in terms of millions of users. One of the downsides of a 5-6 million customer base is the lack of other players. Cross play is currently absolutely essential but as we approach next gen, we need 12-15 million to open things up. The Quest is making huge strides, hopefully PSVR is next.

There is some cross play on PSVR. Bridge Crew, Sports Bar VR and Rec Room are cross play
