Will a VR Gun Stock Help in Breachers?

What is Breachers VR?

Breachers VR, crafted by Triangle Factory, has emerged as an essential experience for fans of immersive VR shooters seeking depth and tactical play. This first-person tactical shooter offers an engaging blend of high-pressure combat and strategic planning that sets it apart from the competition.

Breachers VR Gameplay

The heart of Breachers VR is its strategic, team-based combat. The game divides participants into two opposing teams: attackers and defenders, each with unique objectives and tools. Attackers must break through fortified positions using a variety of equipment, while defenders create defensive setups and use traps to repel their opponents. This setup encourages thoughtful strategy, teamwork, and communication, making it more sophisticated than traditional VR shooters.

Gameplay and Feel

Breachers VR impresses with its well-designed control system, which feels natural on a variety of VR platforms. This ensures that players can move smoothly and interact seamlessly with the virtual world. Whether placing charges, reinforcing doorways, or handling different gear, the game emphasizes realism and responsive mechanics, heightening the overall experience.

Should I Get a Breachers VR Gunstock?

Considering Breachers is a game focused on CQB and strategy, you'd think a VR Gun Stock wouldn't be beneficial since you're not making long-range shots. In a comparable flat-screen game like Rainbow Six Siege, it's smart for players to be holding corners, doors, and hallways for extended periods of time. The same applies to Breachers. There are a few sight-lines which are semi-long range, and having a Gun Stock like the SPINE from Olen VR would be extremely beneficial.

SPINE VR Gunstock for Breachers

If you're enjoying Breachers, it's likely you're a competitive player, and having all the available tools to help your performance is vital. The SPINE Gun Stock for the Meta Quest 3 is a solid option as it not only gives you a tactical advantage, but it adds another level of realism to your gaming experience. The unique top-mounting style and the added weight to your hands create an extremely fluid and immersive experience, where you'll find yourself not wanting to play without a stock ever again.

Benefits of a Top-Mounted VR Gun Stock

There is nothing on the market like the SPINE Gun Stock for the Meta Quest 2, and this is because of false information. Due to the stock being above the controllers, this causes there to be a extremely slight imperfect line-of-sight from  the headset cameras to the controller tracking infrared lights. At face value, and with a complete lack of experience, one could assume that the tracking of the controllers would be affected and therefore unplayable. This is completely wrong. We've shipped thousands of SPINE's across the globe and feedback couldn't be more clear, this stock works and works very well. Reloading and dismounting your controllers from the stock is natural and fluid as you're able to perfectly mimic an in-game reload.

How to Reload in Breachers with a SPINE

The SPINE uses neodymium magnets paired with a fully metal underside stock body to give it a natural feel. When a player needs to reload their weapon, you can simply snap the controller off of the stock. By pulling straight down, or rolling your controller forward or backward, you'll be able to create enough pressure to disconnect the magnet on your controller away from your SPINE.

When you're ready to stabilize both of your hands, then just bring the controller back to the stock. The entire underside of the stock is metal, so you don't need to be perfectly accurate when reattaching your stock.

How to Use Gadgets and Sidearms with a SPINE

When you purchase a SPINE VR Gun Stock for the Valve Index or any major Virtual Reality gaming headset, it comes with a bungee sling; you can use your own custom sling if you prefer. Using a sling with this stock is vital as it allows you to disconnect both of your controllers from the SPINE to free your hands and execute any motions you need. When you disconnect your hands from the stock while using a sling, the stock should hang comfortably either on your hip or your chest. The gadgets available at your disposal in Breachers are:

  • Frag Grenade
  • Smoke Grenade
  • Incendiary Grenade
  • Heal Syringe
  • Tripwire
  • Static Field Emitter
  • Proximity Sensor
  • Door Blocker

It's highly recommended to attach your sling to the stock via the quick-disconnect point on the extension, as well as the buttstock. The assembly tutorial included in every shipment of the SPINE demonstrates how to attach your sling. When done properly, the stock will rest on your hip close to your trigger hand. To reconnect your controllers to the stock, a simple movement of your hand away from you will do the trick.

The magnet will slap in place, and you can lift the stock to then attach your off-hand to the stock. Perfect execution will take a little practice, but the motion will be extremely fluid overtime. Always remember, with any gunstock there will be a learning curve but virtual reality FPS practice makes perfect!

The Asset Gun Stock for Breachers

Considering the vast array of player playstyles, if you're someone who values quickness over immersion then the Asset will be your best friend. Compatible with the Meta Quest 2, Quest 3, and Quest 3S, the Asset VR Gun Stock is a highly reputable and reliable virtual reality gun stock accessory. This top-tier virtual reality accessory is extremely budget friendly price of only $35; it also has high versatility to customize your stock with various parts available in the MOD armory.

Benefits of a Bottom Mounted VR Gun Stock

There are a few key points to recognize when choosing between bottom-mounted and top-mounted virtual reality gunstocks including:

  • No tracking obstructions
  • Headset clearance to avoid bumping your headset into the stock
  • Less natural reloading motions
  • Extra movement costing more time to execute movements

When looking at all the above, you might be thinking a top-mounted stock is a far superior style of VR gunstock. Though this may be true in some cases, every player has their own specific preferences, and players just need to consider which points are most important to them

How to Reload with the Asset VR Gun Stock

A huge benefit of the Asset virtual reality gaming accessory is the fact that it is extremely lightweight coming in at just over 0.7lbs. The lack of weight on the stock, along with not needing magnetic controller mounts attached to your stock makes a world of difference for competitive VR players. You'll have virtually nothing in your way when wanting to make quick snap-shots or check corners if you're a player who prefers to rush objectives and POI's. To reload with this stock, all it takes is slightly removing your fingers from the slip-grips of the stock.

The Asset Slip Grips were deliberately designed to cradle your virtual reality controllers in place just enough to slip your controllers into without holding them in place. The slim profile of these VR gun stock controller cups also provides a natural feel to the players hands and feels like a slight extension of the controllers itself.

Using Gadgets and Pistols with the Asset

Similar to the SPINE, we highly recommend pairing this gunstock with a VR Gun Stock Sling. This stock doesn't come with a sling, but there are plenty of options to choose from including a single-point, 2-point, and bungee sling. When you're ready to use any of your gadgets you purchased, or your sidearm, you can drop your stock to your hip or even keep your trigger hand connected to the stock. Keeping your hand connected is a highly-viable option with the Asset due to it's lightweight frame.

Fatigue will be no-issue when keeping your hand connected, but above all we always recommend using a sling. When you use a gun stock sling with the Asset, you'll be able to move completely freely and not risk bumping objects around you with the stock.

Breachers Players Will Benefit From a VR Gun Stock

Whether you're a seasoned veteran with thousands of hours played in Breachers or a completely new player, using a vr gunstock like the SPINE or Asset will bring you many wins. The increased stability of your hands along with the ability to aim down your sights reliably will be highly beneficial.
