If Zeon did poo poo that made sense they wouldn't have lost to autistic space children. Repeatedly.

Yay, I spent my play tickets on DX tickets and got a gold Missile Shooter Pezun Dowadge, and a silver range bonus Prototype Kampfer. :toot:

Did they ever make beam bazookas not suck?

They recently buffed beam bazooka projectile speed and hitbox awhile back, I've seen Al Borland and other players use it in action and it's basically a super charged beam rifle. I think they're decent now, yeah.

E: Powerful, but fairly unforgiving if you miss since you won't have time to charge up again if you can't stall the enemy in some way.

The only suit with terrible beam bazookas is the GP02... but I think they'll be much better after the incoming game balance patch.

We're getting a bunch of new weapons on various suits on the 27th as well. Keep in mind that there isn't a translated list anywhere yet, so I'll do what I can to figure this out based on Chrome's translation of the update page.

Earth Federation units:


Zeon units:


IMO, Zeon's the big winner about this. Having dual shotguns on the GM Guard Custom is kind of rude, but no one uses it anyways so no big deal, whereas charge beams on the Gelgoog Cannon are actually a pretty big deal (and imo makes the heavy Action Zaku largely obsolete).

That being said, a charged underwater beam rifle on the Aqua Gundam is going to loving suck.


Yeah, Heavy Act Zaku is obsolete. Time to retire the 2 year old anchors of my deck :unsmith:

Guess I'll have to grab the unit 4 sniper mirror Act Zaku instead, I don't see how it will be a downgrade for me :laugh:



Also, the L Gatling for the unit 5 will be a copy of the Flight Gouf's Charge Gatling:



Looks like you charge it up to fire a powerful burst.

Flight Gouf looks pretty cool, but I want more Act Zakus :japan:



Also, pumped to see Zogok and Act Mallet getting cool melee things:



...Yeah, probably gonna all in my DX stash for a unit 4 sniper gundam mirror over waiting for the Gerbera Tetra. Looking forward to one shotting Alexes thru the beam coated shield :getin:

Game doesn't let you send invites, the closest thing that I can do is mail the apply to clan screen. Logged on for a bit to do just that. If you can accept and apply before like 4PM japan time tomorrow I can get you in time for the end of week clan GP.

No it doesn't really mean that either.

Iku is a verb that means to go. It can mean that but no one is gonna get that if you're shouting it while attacking a base. People yell that poo poo all the time in gundam while slamming right joysticks forward.

Well in a sense yes but it's the same word.

Itte is another verb form but the root is just iku. Japanese uses forms to modify verbs since it's all kanji based. Rather than saying like ran, run, running you just modify the form on the end to fit the sentence. *ku is just the base form of a verb.
