Early Access Review
Ok so far, I´ve played this game for about 9hrs and here is what I can say about it:

- Story –
The Game drops you in a war for the last remaining clean Water sources. The water is contaminated with microplastics and is now dangerous for Humans. The Governments around the world tried to keep order but they were overwhelmed by the people and soon Raiders and Mercs fight against you and the remaining Government Troops.

- Gameplay –
The Game felt a bit weird when I started playing because it was different than the previous VR Games I played before. Your movement is mostly fluid and it works great in the map design. You also have Grip Gloves on both hands and if you aren`t holding something you can climb up nearly every obstacle and cover. Mentioning cover, you can use every piece available to you. If you crouch, and since this is VR you have to crouch IRL to crouch in the game.

Ok but now I have to mention the most important thing in Zero Caliber and the reason why most people like VR. It is the Gunplay. All the weapons in the Game work great and they look convincing. From all the Screws and Scratches to the Attachments, Rails, Scopes and everything. The guns handle and reload how you’d expect them to. Except for the Shotguns they are (for now) Semi Auto only.
There is a Coop Mode in the Game and if it works you and your buddy will have a great time doing stupid stuff together like stealing each other’s magazines out of the gun or drop their secondary weapons or just trigger some grenades

- Performance –
The recommended Specs for the Games are these:
  • OS: Windows 10
  • CPU: Intel Core i7 4770
  • RAM: 8GB
  • GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070
But the Game is running fine on my PC with some slowdowns in some heavier situations. I´m currently using a Ryzen 7 1700X @4.00GHz with 32GB Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro @3.2GHz together with a GTX 1060 6GB and I cranked the Game to maximum Settings and still have a fine looking and running game. Overall the Performance is getting better with every Patch.

Conclusion
The Game is nice to just shoot some People and sometimes your friend :D its quite fun to find and customize your weapons and unlock new guns at the firing range in your base. The Game is getting frequently new content and patches. I also chatted with the Dev XREAL Games VR and they have quite a lot to do and many more ideas to implement in the game. Its an Early Access Game and the Community and their Feedback is important for the future of the game and its content.

I like the Game and I can recommend it for VR Newcomers and people who just want to shoot some guys :D
