it’s been 4 years since we’ve gotten a new quest

[sharp ermine]

Yeah. 4 years. Crescendo just had its 4th birthday today, and honesty, it’s really stupid we haven’t gotten one in a whopping FOUR YEARS. Seriously! With the amount of money rec room is getting how the heck do they not have the energy to make another? And I swear if the next one is being made in the lazy studio I am going to flip.

[quick iron]

How come we dont have a modern day quest?
I mean we have gt and cc in medieval time, iols in pirate times and jumbotron in futuristic times

[late ruin]

wdym we have a quest 2

[sharp ermine]

A modern day one would be some gang shi probably

[sharp ermine]

Paintball weapons quest when

[quick iron]

Gang violence

[plush abyss]

honestly it feels like the past years they have been pushing for community built rooms, like maker pen updates, V2, and now studio. it sounds like they are like “fuck it let the community build our game for us” which feels lazy. they game is going down hill fast.

[slow eagle]

He's taking about a rec room quest

[bronze dock]

Not exactly lazy, as I’d think “work smarter not harder” half applies, though they could’ve avoided a lot of the work they’ve done if they made a different version for PlayStation & added/supported a professional scripting language. I agree more RROs should come out, especially quests as they’d give items & community rooms aren’t currently capable of doing that. A lot of in game features also require RROs (boxes, cosmetics, tokens, XP, weekly challenges, etc).

[sharp ermine]

You can give items in community rooms you just gotta add a free gifts button at the end

[bronze dock]

Not exactly the same or what I meant.

[lucid beacon]

He was joking; he's a bit on the clown side of things, just ignore it.

[sand terrace]

Make a new quest or make Crescendo available for Quest 2. Both work for me

[lucid beacon]

Rec Room made the Showdown RRO minigame a few months ago, and called it a day, focusing more on business aspects for creators with RR+, economically changing custom shirts, upgrading the maker pens 24/7, fixing communication bugs, or playing along guidelines for certain devices like Quest 2 (kept the juniors at bay at least.) In a sense, RRO minigames take less time than a massive RRO quest such as Crescendo so with the amount of time that has passed when that RRO came out, and the holidays coming left and right to focus on anything else major, we won't be getting a quest for another long while I'd say.

[sharp ermine]

They’ve literally made 2 RROs since crescendo

They could at the very least do those but no

[lucid beacon]

Yeah, but the one before Showdown was Rec Rally, and that was a little over a year ago in September. I don't know what was happening then because I didn't make my account till late June of this year, but I'm sure it was a lot of nothing.

[sharp ermine]

Literally just nothing, and both of these RROs were very meh

Rec rally was just... horrible... and showdown is not made with much effort

[lucid beacon]

Yeah, when people talk about what the best RRO game is, they always hate on Rec Rally. People only like Showdown because it gave you 5-star items (tbh it's only the gunslinger set.)

[sharp ermine]

I remember how hype a vehicle was back in like 2018-2019 because there was a leaked demo of it where it was go-karts, and you controlled it with your hands

The Rec Rally one is more than disappointing, there’s just about no use for your hands and it’s SO motion sick it’s sad

[lucid beacon]

It is. Also with Showdown, the hitboxes and stuff are so buggy and laggy, that it's harder to kill someone without having to spam the trigger a lot of times. Eventually, you get used to it, but the game is overall broken and boring. It's like paintball in its early times, I'm sure.

[lucid beacon]

Dude went out of his way to make a post about it.

[white sorrel]

im pretty sure they're working on a new quest atm

[brazen lark]

Rec rally cars have potential for better games I wish someone would make it

And you can customize the cars and stuff

[brave bronze]

who told you this? TheLiar6326?

[bronze dock]

Any evidence? Or just speculation.

[white sorrel]

Gribbly's keynote

[bronze dock]

That’s a 1v4.

[white sorrel]

i think someone also said they were gonna work (or are currently working on) a new quest

oh

[bronze dock]

It’s going to be similar to Dead by Daylight.

Or Friday the 13th.

[sand terrace]

I t l i t e r a l l y i s

[rustic herald]

no its not

hardware on devices dont get improvements

they only get new devices

[sand terrace]

Quest 2 can literally play entire games that are more demanding than whats needed for Crescendo. Whats your reasoning for it not being supported then?

[bronze dock]

If you’re referring to games outside of Rec Room it wouldn’t be a decent comparison as Rec Room is badly optimized. If it was currently possible they would’ve released it.

[rustic herald]

it runs trash on pcvr meanwhile quest 2 is basically 1/3 of a pc's power

it isnt worth it anyway'

its too long for a 2 hour battery

[sand terrace]

If its bad on PCVR then that means u have a bad pc lmao

Simple as that.

Tho RR really should have focus on more optimization ngl

[bronze dock]

Not exactly accurate, Rec Room is poorly optimized on all devices. It also takes more processing power to run Rec Room in VR.

Mid level pcs can have trouble.

[bronze dock]

That PC also appears to be quite good, which graphics card do you have?

[rustic herald]

NVIDEA GeForce RTX 3060

the grave level (the one with the skelly boss) ran super poor

or maybe that was because i had to have many apps for vr to work

or maybe its because the video signal had to go to 2 apps before getting to rec room

[bronze dock]

Are you using wireless?

[rustic herald]

no

with cable

[sand terrace]

Which one would work better when I get a pc even- AirLink or wired

[bronze dock]

Wired has a superior connection & less lag (it also charges your headset). Wireless/Airlink has the benefit of being free & wireless, though if you have many devices connected to your internet or internet that’s not 5 GHz you’ll likely experience frame drops & lag.

Meta is also working on a wireless device which plugs into your pc, this should stop lag & frame drops.

[sand terrace]

All i need is a pc instead of my 8 year old laptop :,)

[white sorrel]

All i need is a quest 2 and a pc instead of my 11 year old MacOS High Sierra :,)

[sand terrace]

F

[white sorrel]

😔

[sharp ermine]

All new RROs are proof of concept. If we do end up getting a new quest, it’ll be made with studio and be really buggy as a result.

If you want another quest I suggest you make one, spawner circuits do exist and I’m sure you could ask community support to allow you to use bosses in your room.

[brazen lark]

Before any new updates come out we need better optimization

No new quests until the optimization gets better

[sand terrace]

Automatically delete accounts that havent been logged into after 6 months.

That alone would put a crapton less stress on the servers for sure

[bronze dock]

That’d drop the actual player count, as people take breaks. A idiotic decision similar to this would likely kill the game.

There’s also 1 year bans.

[sand terrace]

6 months is an extremely long time even for a break.

Logging in twice a year or your account gets deleted would be reasonable.

[bronze dock]

It’s essentially saying play constantly or have your account deleted which is not a decent business model. This would also eliminate a majority of players who could return. It’d create a constant fear to lose your account, which in turn could likely lead to people barely spending money. It’s an inappropriate business model, especially here as you pay for in game items. There’s also no benefit to deleting accounts.

[bronze dock]

Not how servers work, each player room takes up maximum 2 MB & a lot of players don’t make rooms. Even if it somehow fixed the servers they’d still lose money.

[glad charm]

Quests simply do not bring in any money

You only earn things from them for playing the game

No pay to win

Which is great from a game perspective but super unattractive for RR devs who like money

[sand terrace]

Bro logging in once every 6 months is nowhere NEAR consistant-

[raw raptor]

Idk about you guys but I'd like to see a stealth like one, maybe a bank robbery

[bronze dock]

Even if you don’t consider it consistent, people can take 6 month breaks only to pick it back up again. A lot of people only log in for holidays as well & since a large amount of the players are in high school/college they may not be able to play for 9 months out of the year.

[slow eagle]

Cresendo need more ram that the quest 2 doesn't have

[slow eagle]

Because your using windows 11, I have worse parts then that and it runs fine on windows 10

[slow eagle]

Wouldn't do much

[cursive bone]

paintball quest

[sharp ermine]

Not to mention that recroom is worth 3.5 billion dollars

In other words

Lazy

[bronze dock]

This could be said about literally all RROs, the point is to get people to play the game thus they may spend money.

[glad charm]

Fair

[lucid beacon]

Marketing at it's finest.

[glad charm]

New quest (must have RR+ to play)

((Need to pay for rewards when you beat it))

All honesty tho, a sequel to Jumbotron similar to how Crimson is to Golden would be awesome

[lucid beacon]

A prequel would really sell it tbh, but that's more of a community game idea than an actual RRO quest. You know what they really need to make a sequel of? Making a third addition to the GoldenTrophy game, but make it the final chapter where we fight against a giant, fire-breathing dragon. We fought a brute goblin king and a dark mystical witch, the best way to end it off would be another quest slaying the most iconic beast of all.

[ashen spruce]

On the topic of the last two users' comments, the theme right now is about the future and space etc. Like when the seasonal theme was western and they made Showdown.

I think most of their time recently has been around the Invasion event and adding a dozen new bugs, but it'd be great if we got a new Jumbo quest.

Uhhh..... ._.

Opinion

Well I'm sorry my good sir but I must communicate to you again on the morrow, as I do not intend to dispute who is "spitting facts" and who is using the most greatest of vocabulary. Good day. Jolly Ho!

Bet

I'll be watching.

[rustic herald]

You understand that Microsoft has already optimized it?

[lucid beacon]

Which brought me to my previous quest idea, and I made a suggestion to it in #1020057928125911050. That quest would be about Superheroes.

[ashen spruce]

RecRoom: Holds Heroes Event
Shows heroes fighting alongside eachother
Doesn't make a hero quest
Makes a horrible parkour with pay to win and unclear lore, more targeted at a young audience

[lucid beacon]

Oh right. I've heard about that. Considering that Rec Room likes to recycle their skins and clothes however, they could just bring it back for that reason.
