Wow, the japs really are lovely to commanders. Nobody had taken it so I grabbed the role and I was kicked 5 second after the match started.

a lot of the time if they see you have no commander experience and you end up in a gold game they'll just kick you, also if you can't speak Japanese they will also kick you.

Plus with the representative commander system you don't need a full time commander these days.

I like to call this "the saddest alex". We both knew each other were around the corner. I was overheating. He gets double airshot.



Zaku 2f2 is sooo good. It's basically the only cheap suit I really really enjoy playing, and I wish I farmed more of it from events.

Every goddamn weapon is a oneshot kill. Please recommend a support MS that won't instantly explode into fire, TIA.

This hand of mine shines and roars! It's bright cry tells me to grasp victory!

None of them because everything has devolved to charge one hit kills. It's why I stopped playing.

I see lots of assaults running around at half and quarter health so I have dudes to heal. I just don't understand why they're more resilliant than me.

I played 12x in the 27th Gasha DX and I got a gold Isaac and a regular Zaku main layer so I'm going to see how they fare in combat. I managed to come in the top 10 in two games today by healing, it's just a lot more sudden death when anyone sees me.

Yeah he's exaggerating. There's one new sniper that can one shot people but it doesn't affect support much since they get one shot by old snipers anyway. The simplest explanation is probably you are much worse now after taking a long break. Unless you're behind very safe cover, always keep moving. Mobility is the best defense and it's why a good player can rack up a dozen kills in a paper armored kampfer while diving enemies by themselves.

The zaku flipper is a high cost support that can instantly revive a man at short range, moves suprisingly fast for a support, with higher quality weapons (as in healing guns and poo poo), and radar. If you want a support to fool around with go buy one out for 250k.

I was wondering if it was somehow that I only upgraded my stats so far and it seems like MS can be upgraded really high now. I might also just suck. I'll try to get in with the guild and see if anyone wants to do poo poo as a group.

I'm saving up my daily tickets for either the working zaku or the marine zaku.

Does anyone have a good line on getting banacoins? None of my mastercards apparently work with the securecode system and my one visa refuses to enroll (gently caress you, chase). I'm trying not to pay $10 premium on one of those webmoney card resellers but I may have to.

I'd just eat the premium. Other methods have exhange rate losses anyway and the yen is really cheap right now.

Also like the guy above you said, zaku flipper is very good and easily bought, and is probably much better than the ones you listed as a dedicated support. It's by far the fastest support (i think over 1200 speed fully upgraded) and hardest one to kill because of it.

Definitely join the guild for upgrade bonuses - they are very significant.

I'll check out the flipper. I'm still a bit away from the 5mil to buy the gold BP.

What is this new poo poo in my MS hangar? I can pick two things that look like the "modules" I can unlock for my MS but I can't tell what I'm doing and it yells at me if I go over some 200pt value.

Just pick up the silver for 250k. It's not going to make or break a support suit (just maximize armor, speed, and recall).

The mission unit cap is your deck cost leftover + bonus from each MS (it's listed next to the cost on each MS). You have 190. Not really a big deal. I can't even use a single one.

I guess I can shell out 250k for a silver. I'll probably give in and pay the extra money for access to webmoney and banacoins. What's the deal with the 960 BC rainbow gasha? Looks like it's a lottery of a shitton of assault MS.

What is the thing I circled in red? Do I use the 190 leftover deck points to equip some kind of bonus?

That entire bar is the same system. That's where you select MU bonuses up to your max cost of 190. They are all pretty minor. You already have a boost unit selected and can't select more since it'd go over your cap.

Is there a unit list anywhere? Particularly Zeon, but a complete one would be nice.

So looking at volume 32 of the DX. It looks like they gave up all pretense of sides and gave the Feds a zeon unit that is good but not zeon a good unit.

God damnit bandai hates zeon

they gave bawoo a copy weapon of the quebeley the KD beam, it is however ballistic damage so it can knock shikis down so in that regard its better than the quebs weapon but it can't increase its damage from any traits like the quebeley can

at max damage the shiki would need 251 balance to resist a KD in the air from the bawoo

meanwhile zeta gundam now has the strongest/best bazooka in the game now

Type F bazooka now 12k damage when maxed and its travel speed is faster now
