Solo CQB in the Most Realistic VR Shooter | Geronimo

Video summary

Press to jump

1:23The armory walkthrough introduces the KS-1 rifle, variable-power scope, M9A4 pistol and plate carrier.
2:32He selects Abduction at Iraq Manor, with a rule that death ends the video.
3:12A sponsored EXOSHOCK segment showcases a separate sci-fi tactical co-op shooter.
4:19From high ground, he scouts the compound and studies patrol routes before approaching.
9:18The mission moves inside for room-clearing and stairwell checks.
10:52The target encounter and extraction sequence begin here.

The plan starts on high ground, looking through a scope and counting patrols. Before Controlled Pairs Gaming enters Geronimo's Iraq Manor compound, he intends to clear as much as possible from outside.

That deliberate approach anchors "Solo CQB in the Most Realistic VR Shooter | Geronimo," the most-watched of three new uploads, with roughly 13,000 views. His rule gives the run its stakes: "But the twist is, when I die, the mission ends."

First comes the armory: a KAC KS-1 rifle, a variable-power scope and a Beretta M9A4 pistol. Then it's downhill toward the compound walls, through the perimeter and into rooms and stairwells. The video also includes a sponsored segment for the separate sci-fi co-op shooter EXOSHOCK.

Geronimo fills the entire new-upload slate, including "Two Angles, Same Fight | Geronimo VR" and another solo-CQB upload. The longer mission is also drawing the most daily views among the channel's moving videos, while the previous week's part-by-part rifle-building clip continues to find viewers.

Across the channel, daily viewing is close to its usual level and the subscriber total is unchanged over the week. Nearby shooter channels offer a mixed picture: Volx has gained subscribers and is drawing above-usual daily views, while Jyku is quieter than usual.

Under the manor mission, viewers get specific about the simulation. Some question why enemies indoors don't respond more convincingly to gunfire outside; others discuss the virtual stock and haptic feedback. There are practical questions, too, about PC requirements and whether a Quest headset can run the game standalone. For this audience, how the rifle feels and how the opposition reacts are very much part of the same conversation.

What viewers say

This is probably one of my favorite shooting models in VR. Between the virtual stock and the haptics, does a decent job of being intuitive to shoot.

I’m running a Ryzen 5700 X3D cpu a AMD Radeon 6600 XT 32GB RAM will my quest 3 work ok with this game? Or is my pc not powerful enough?

The core gunplay and tactical barbie sides of this game are a great base, but I feel like we need new game modes urgently. Playing single player is super tense for one mission and then it gets stale. Hopefully at some point modding will give use new maps too.
