Half-Life: Alyx adds continuous turning after fan complaints Feel free, man. News by Tom Phillips Deputy Editor Updated on 25 Mar 2020 34 comments Valve has released its first update to Half-Life: Alyx and among the bug fixes and changes is a big improvement for the way the VR game handles movement. Players can now "continuous turn" with various associated turning speed options, a highly requested feature from fans who have played so far. The previous turning mechanic, quick turn, has been renamed "snap turn" - which better fits its functionality. Or you can play the game using a teleportation-style movement, if you prefer. Other changes include "improved impact decals on enemies" and "improved hand-over-mouth pose usability for Windows MR controller". I'm not sure what all those words mean, but my guess is it should make this sort of thing even easier: I enjoyed drawing this elephant in #HalfLifeAlyx. pic.twitter.com/WdyR5TkHau- Ian Higton (@IanHigton) March 23, 2020 To see this content please enable targeting cookies.
