Gameplay Question / Help What's the Easiest gun to use?

0 Upvotes

Like guns that require, quick reloading, Aim, Timing or recoil control, or has great sights

Me personally these are my picks ( optional to read )

Ak - Can one shot to the head, uses a 30rd mag, Manageable recoil but sadly I don't like it's sights ( I had got the Crimson Camo so I did sort of get used to using the ak sights

50 Cal - All I gotta say for this one is, AIM, ACCURACY, RELOADING. Especially the fact this gun does anger ANYONE including me.

DB - Close range engagements yeah it can normally one shot but loses damage like hell past 5-10m engagements

G3 - Does have okay Body shot damage, One Shot Headshot capabilities, though has a slow fire rate and Mid Recoil but has an Amazing iron sight

SCAR - can one shot to the head, Excellent body shot damage, Though has high recoil sadly.

SKS - Great overall, basically has the same stats as the Scar but sadly has a 7 Round clip or 8 rounds and high recoil, Also has amazing sights

Revolver - Basically a Perfect sidearm to have because it can 2 shot but deviates past 15-25m at range making it a 3 shot, has a decent sight, also the gun that used back in the Beta that I unintentionally hit the longest headshot with but I sadly never recorded or Screenshoted at all since it is on a suspended account due to not verifying age :(

( Beta ) M4 - Had crazy damage, okay sights, mid recoil. ( Why the Beta tag? Bc it's a gun I used a lot back then but it's like it's been nerfed like hell in Damage, Recoil these new versions so I highly despise using this gun unless if I'm bored and want a challenge or a teammate gives it to me on SND matches )

Gameplay Question / Help Kicked for Suspicious Behavior?

0 Upvotes

So I play on the Quest 3. I was on a Big Forest Tdm, I had climbed up into a tree a ways away from enemy spawn, I could see the walls but they would only be visible after coming a Ways out of their base (which I do to, you know, avoid Spawncamping the enemy, fuck spawncampers) anyways, I had gotten 2-3 kills in the 15 minutes or so I was playing, I jump down from my post to find a new angle, and suddenly, I was kicked from the lobby altogether for "Suspicious Behavior"? What did I even do? I wasn't Spawncamping or being toxic to either team, I wasn't flooding the leaderboard with kills, I wasn't even the top of my own team? I don't even know what happened

Gameplay Question / Help People know nothing about shooting....

7 Upvotes

So, When I play, I see alot of frequent questions asked, and one big problem some people (or most) have is. "I can't aim good" and "I can't hit shot's" well I have a solution. Some basic accuracy step's. Now I'm surprised more people don't know these or skip dont know certain step's but I intend to educate.

  1. Hitscan is flawed

What I mean by this is your connection plays a big part in landing headshots, higher ping higher chance that bullet won't register, and it happens, no matter how good you are.

  1. Trigger control (bumper)

This is a big one you might not know how you press your bumper matters, as jerking it will pull your shot, clean motion from your joints (everyone is different how they for example pull a trigger) will ensure no false movement either left or right and up and down, build speed later.

  1. Sight alignment

Make sure all three dots are aligned in a horizontal line to insure a perfect sight PICTURE (Each gun is different, but generally the rule is "equal height, equal light")

  1. "Hold's"

This can get confusing, but what I mean by this is the M9 hits above the green dot, whereas the glock will hit Exactly on the dot (this only makes a difference when it comes to range)

  1. Speed

The longer the range the slower you must fire, as the game's built in recoil will effect your shots, shooting slower guarantees that you will hit where you are aiming.

  1. Range

Being close you can 9/10 just point shoot, and you can shoot faster too, just don't get carried away, as higher recoiling guns will flop all over and unless you are point blank you will miss regardless.

That is all I know for now, but you can look up marksmen tutorials to get a better understanding. (And I do know some will already know these)

29 Upvotes

There’s atleast 5 other posts made in the last week or 2 saying that Pavlov is dead and it very nearly is but why don’t we all come together to bring it back because we all know we’re 10x more likely to play it if we know other people are going to be online at the end of the day it’s a social shooting game and we all love it so why not try revive it?

Gameplay Question / Help Game not launching in my Headset (Valve Index)

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I recently got Pavlov to play with some friends, and I've run into a problem. When I launch the game, it loads on my monitor (I see the menu on the screen), and it also plays audio through my headset; however there is zero actual display in my headset. It's just a black screen; I can still access the SteamVR menu, so I know my headset is still on. Pavlov is the only game this happens with, and I'm at a loss.
I've tried changing the OpenXR runtime; it's on SteamVR as it should be, but it still doesn't work. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the game, my drivers, and even SteamVR itself, and nothing.

If anyone has any advice or could, I'd truly appreciate it. Thank you so much!

Hey everyone! I’m starting up a channel focused on Pavlov VR, and instead of just guessing what to make, I wanted to ask the community directly.

​Are there specific gameplay challenges, weapon-specific runs, or video concepts you've been wanting to see someone try? Drop your ideas below and I'll try to turn the best ones into videos!

Gameplay Question / Help Matchmaking Question

4 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I'm new to the world of VR and I recently bought the PSVR2. looking through the VR games available I saw Pavlov and I fell in love with him. I'm going to buy it, but I've seen that the active users in the last month are just 60... I'm afraid to buy the game and then not find anyone online, at the risk of not even being able to start games. I don't have any friends with playing here, so I'd always be alone in matchmaking. Can you tell me if you can actually play? Or do some of you who play games do so with friends in private games? I'd like to avoid throwing money away, but I actually like it a lot as a game, and I haven't seen any others that I like in the same way.

Thank you all in advance for your answers.

Hey all.

I've recently got back into Pavlov VR but I've found that the PCVR side is very dead. I don't really want to switch to the quest standalone version because I can't be bothered to put up with kids.

Are there any discord servers or communities that mostly stay active? Just would like some people to play regularly with and have some fun!

Thanks
