Samurai Sanders posted:In a moment of weakness I preordered Gundam Versus. The last one of these games I played for hours on end was Gundam vs Z-Gundam so maybe it was a mistake, we'll see. It's going to be a pretty big culture shock, since that's a leap roughly analogous to playing something like Moon Dwellers or V when the last SRW you played was SRW 2. That said, as someone who has enjoyed Versus enough to wake up for their ridiculous beta test times just to mainline a little bit more of it, it's a really loving good game.

In Gundam Versus (or previous games for that matter) is there an option I'm not seeing to use random MSs every round in single player, just for the purpose of quickly getting a feel for lots of different MSs?

In Extreme Vs Full Boost (as that's the only one I've played) you can set it to random or random of a specific cost

Samurai Sanders posted:Where is that option though? Is it treated as an MS somewhere in the MS list like a fighting game, or something else? IIRC you just cycle to the left when selecting your character. Granted, this is for free battle mode rather than arcade mode, as I had more experience with free battle for fun, and it's for Extreme Vs Full Boost, so it might be different with others.

Oh huh, I guess it's a menu option above favorite MS, but only for multiplayer and not single player. What the hell? That's all backwards. edit: does anyone play these games with the navigation voice turned on? Whether it's Haro's screeching or not, it seems designed to destroy your concentration in a game series already completely full of yelling and lasers and explosions.

The ones I mostly used were Bright and Haman, though when my mate and I played he had it set to Meer Campbell, and kept calling her Lacus Clyne.

I used Bright, but some of his lines are so drat long so my brother was getting annoyed. Switched to Haman after that. I preordered the Japanese version of Gundam Versus. I'll be getting both versions, but I do not want to wait for the English release.

Played it a whole bunch yesterday. Mostly casual matches (ranked matches aren't implemented until the end of the month) with random 200 cost suits. Unlike last time I want to experiment with all the suits' functions in an organized way rather than just going off ones that I like the design like usual. So far maybe the silver Sumo is my favorite of the 200 suits.

I just finished V and oh man that last stage was killer. Surviving the final boss' first turn was harder than the entire rest of the game.

Really, the best way to deal with that battle (even without abusing the Yamato) is to know that they're coming and positioning yourself preemptively. I think you need to get four or five of them down, at which point they'll lose morale, Pressure and Double Movement and become MUCH more fragile (my Ryouma personally oneshotted another four after that). Let them get a turn before that, though, and it ain't gonna be pretty. I confess that I was legit scared before I triggered the event.

I'll admit I cheesed it by letting the last enemy before that sit around taking potshots he could never hit while everyone else repaired and regained SP. But drat if it wasn't satisfying.

I feel like that whole thing would have been more satisfying if they didn't get de-powered but weren't quite so overwhelming to begin with, and you still unlocked the WMC. You'd get a really good spiral going since the whole thing gets significantly weaker the more of them you take out.

The big problem is that if you don't know they're coming at all, there's a good chance you'll be out of position and get really hosed that first defense turn but after that it becomes infinitely easier. But holy poo poo that first turn is a nightmare. By like the third turn most of my dudes were one shotting them from full health. I think I had Mazinger Zero kill like half of them on a chain of EX moves alone.

I think the only major plots from previous OG games are A. there's a bigass warpgate left lying in orbit from the last battle B. various aliens from the Zuvorg Alliance have tried invading Earth and C. Endless Frontier is canon. You could pick that up as you play, I'm guessing.

Davzz posted:I would like this, but I also don't think it will happen - I imagine they aren't ignorant about the financial states of several SRPG franchises and unfortunately they're probably learning lessons that would ensure higher profit margins over "memorable games that players will remember" Maybe they should take inspiration from the AAA Western Market and use the depressing storytelling of Last of Us/Call Of Duty/Rogue One as the basis of the main character instead of "Originals fix everything, cures cancer and brings joy to he world" and instead "Original tries to fight fate but ruins it for others and makes a noble sacrifice so others can live on"

Davzz posted:4) The most financially successful and prominent Japanese SRPG series is Fire Emblem, and the one thing that the devs seem to have taken from that series is not the gameplay, it's "Waifus sell" I mean, I wouldn't say no to a licensed SRW or an OG with dating sim mechanics... Is it so wrong to want to marry your female OC to Duke Freed, or to do cross-series shipping and have Kallen date Chirico for real?

I imagine no matter how many of the anime characters they make gettable by the player character people will be unhappy some minor character isn't. And in a crazy otaku way that dwarfs issues of who is and isn't a playable unit in the game, etc.

All Koyasu characters are contracted to date all Midorikawa characters. Shu and Joe Rival, Mu La Flaga and Xingke, Zechs and Masaki, Asuham Boone and Heero. The possibilities are endless. If making Irm be locked into Ring as his only romance option is what it takes to get her playable again it is a worthy trade.

It is weird at how little original Gundam has been used, but it kinda makes sense too, it's kinda a pain in the rear end to integrate into an SRW setting, same with SEED and 00 Season 1(hence why the former was used only 2-3 times and the latter once)
