Sweet, VR support on this? By the way, didn't Descent 2 support VR as well, for back in the day?

Reason I don't buy early access is because 1. I prefer paying for a full product, not promises and 2. I'm not a tester, I'm a gamer and I shouldn't have to pay to be one.

Here's hoping they keep adding more classic elements like that, while trying new things! It's a nice balance so far.

Haha. Yeah, Forsaken was always the lesser Descent game back then. Some interesting ideas though, and still worth playing, but yeah not quite there

This certainly has my interest piqued. I think I'm going to be waiting to see it launched, rather than grab it on Early Access (as whilst I'm not against it per se, I'd rather pay when the game actually has a good amount of content in it).
So glad they nailed the feel though - now I just need to see them add a good old Pyro GX in there, instead of whatever those drones are :)

Reminds me of Forsaken, only good

Man, Descent supported so many future-thinking things, it's great.

Sounds quite sad.

Yup, not enough here at the moment to warrant a purchase, unless you just like following how these things develop!

I can imagine this having Occulus Rift and Steam VR support...

Looks awesome but I won't be getting it until it's out of early access. Still can't complain when you get it for free of course.

"I don't think I would ever play Descent with a gamepad" - Man... I remember when I tried playing Descent on the PS1. No analog controls at all, just the pad. It was... An experience.

Hooooooooooooooo boy! This game looks like it's got the bones of something AWESOME. Really psyched for it now! Thanks for giving us a peep at the alpha!

Oh wow... I was highly skeptical when I saw the original Kickstarter stuff posted, but it looks as though they're definitely taking this in the right direction. All they need is more weapons, better AI, and an actual plot with levels and objectives and such and they're got a solid game! :D
Oh! And I almost forgot, the Descent games have historically had VR support in them with what was available at the time, so having VR support in the new one is again, definitely going in the right direction! :)

Those enemy drones look like they were made by Avermedia.

I didn't even know another Descent was being made!
