I assume the only thing that could possibly beat a GN Ball would be something that launches Fire Balls. Though, then you'd have to worry about having a mobile suit strong enough to handle Balls of that magnitude.

I swear there was some kind of quest thing on /tg/ about a GN Drive-using Jesta mixed with the GM Juggler, with each Ball having their own GN Drives. poo poo was ridiculous and awesome.

It's actually based on a Sakibure, a high-tech worker suit descended from the 00 Qan[T], appearing at the end of the Trailblazer movie. :eng101:

While GN drives are indeed cool they don't seem any more instant win than anything else. Presumably both of the new ones from this series will lose on account of being the antagonists, and the Dark Matter also lost in the first.

If anything having a GN drive means you will look really fancy as you lose.

The mobile suit design? Some of the suits, like AGE-3 were pretty decent.

The only times I can remember seeing a GN drive-based mobile suit in action in BF was the Exia Amazing/Dark Matter (which could barely keep up with the F91 Imagine and lost to the Star Build Strike's RG system) and I think one of Nils's opponents in the tournament was using a Gundam Virtue that got owned by his swords cutting through its GN Field.

I think the idea behind the GN Drive being so powerful in BF is because of the parallel between GN Particles and Plavsky Particles. It's a quick way to amp up a suit's power by exploiting the way the system itself works, these suits seem to be animated as being super floaty in setting because it's basically just moving around by spewing particles all over the place. Sei's designs never use a GN Drive, though, and instead work around making the entire frame of the suit into a Plavsky Particle conduit. The first Star Build Strike only ran that way for a limited time before the whole thing started to fly apart, but the Build Burning's default state is with the RG System running full bore.

Adding too that, the Abigor doesn't exactly have as much popularity as say, the Crossbones do, so a new kit isn't something one'd expect in the near-term.

One of the basic functions of GN particles in their own universe is that they can manipulate the pull of gravity on mass, creating or eliminating weight. The reason GN Drive equipped suits seem so floaty compared to other gundams is that they are literally weightlesss and being pushed around by another application of the particles. :eng101:

I like me some GN particles, not gonna like.

It's not significantly worse than the Gundam Wing Endless Waltz kits, but it's still pretty bad. Single joint everything and the seams are usually straight down the front.

Well, we do at least know that GN Drives are not a guaranteed ticket into the big leagues, as those guys in GN-X showed us.

Everything's gonna have SOME kind of weakness.

I'm fairly sure the "what the hell is wrong with you" guy was not being serious. This is a discussion forum, having a variety of opinions and discussing them is kind of what makes them interesting.

Not that I don't understand not wanting to be stuck in the role of having to defend Age when the subject comes up, but hey. :v:

The fourth OP is unironically amazing. All that TM Revolution and then WINGS OF WORDS OUT OF NOWHERE until they changed it to Vestige in the Remaster but screw that.
