LeFishy posted:World Brothers is on sale for £27 on switch for a couple weeks. How is the switch port? Worth 27 quid? I really want an EDF style game on here and while Risk of Rain 2 is very very good it doesn't quite scratch the same itch, yknow? I get weird stuttering on World Brothers for Switch, but I don't see it from a lot of other Switch players, so you would probably be fine.

What looks like new end game stuff in the latest episode. The Big Bad may be named Kruuls. They showcased a giant portal. I expect a battle with giant battleships coming through it or robots that transform into one. There are a new kind of dropship transporting Kruuls that you can destroy. An enemy generator that is shielded and armed.

D3 updated the site with some pictures of the new enemies and they just revealed the worst enemy ever created in EDF: A teleportation anchor that shields itself and can attack. It can only be killed from pretty much point blank range apparently. Though the prospect of spiders with electrical webs that can stun you sounds even worse.quote:A new type of teleportation anchor whose appearance of android has been confirmed from the surroundings. Equipped with an electromagnetic shield to protect the weak points of the upper transfer device. It also has a tentacle-like battery that can attack in all directions. As with the conventional type, the operation must be stopped promptly as soon as it is discovered. nerdz fucked around with this message at 17:43 on Jan 7, 2022 |

It is rather terrible to deal with in action. Hopefully, you can wear down the shielding with enough firepower or EDF6 is going to be a little more team-oriented compared to EDF5. Not that it is a bad thing. Rushers are going to get punished with underpowered weapons.

Is EDF6 out in Japan yet? The quick googling seemed to indicate a release date of 2022 for Japan and no confirmation yet for a West release. Is there any more information than that out there?

Just wanted to say I've been playing this for the last month on Steam, there's still a fine online community with plenty of games available daily and I'm having tons of fun exterminating IN-SECTS and listening to bizarrely anti-immigrant rants from my AI squadmates. Wing Divers may have a jetpack but Fencers fly.

A video with some useful information this time. Half the enemy cast is sea/water creature themed. We have what may be clam drones, starfish, inklings, mermen, frogs, Metal Slug aliens, brain coral. Trashcan kamikazes explode when they die. Mermen have attacks like the Kaiju from the last game and Queens.

Certain enemies in the base game now use flamethrowers. Not sure if the giant humans used flamethrowers as well in the base game like they could in the DLC. Pickups now have an animation of icon popups or regeneration bubbles. There seems to be even more blood mist effects and smoke that linger. It looks like it will choke certain consoles.

It better have massive frame drops and slowdown. It's just not the same when a big explosion doesn't cause the game to drop to sub 15fps as effects trigger and spread.

This is the company that, when asked if porting older games to more powerful consoles would fix the framerate issues, replied that they instead added more bugs and explosions.

Release date is scheduled on 8/25. Known Hololive DLC Pure Decoys are Mio, Ayame, and Fubuki. It looks like Rangers can use these decoys. You get one shot and a 40 second recharge time. Only saving grace is they finally autocharge. Might also be stuck on other players and incapacitate them. Scalding Coffee fucked around with this message at 02:23 on Apr 30, 2022 |

New kaiju that is as large as the red mutated Erginus if not bigger. A dragon boss fight that breathes fire and flies. Can also appear in cave missions.

Christ, I desperately hope it's not a rehash of the giant dragon from 4.1. That was one of the most painful and annoying boss fights in the series.

i'm fine with fighting giant monsters but not if they are invincible. even worse is when they are invincible but the game doesn't tell you.

The timed Kaiju fights in 5 did feel draining. One enemy or with a couple dozen supports and then an endurance fight with few pickups.

Going from 4 to 5 I was surprised they still thought having to fight something for 20 straight minutes before it runs off was a good idea. Those are easily my least favorite levels. VVVV Leal fucked around with this message at 15:51 on Jun 3, 2022 |

The nasty thing about some of the Erginus appearances in 5 is that they're not timed, you have to do a certain amount of damage, but there's no indication at all that you're actually accomplishing anything by shooting at the monster.

Can't remember 4 but in 5 if you shoot a big monster and get the big purple blood effects you're doing real damage to a real hp number and the game wants you to keep doing it. Like as soon as they "turn off" and begin to leave the map the effects stop appearing

The true struggle when replaying EDF games is i always remember being able to take down the carrier ships at least three missions before they actually let you

Decoys cause erginus and archie to run off the map until the effect wears off.

Like as soon as they "turn off" and begin to leave the map the effects stop appearing Pretty sure that's 5, and in maps where the giant monsters are killable Erginus will gradually start glowing purple and Archelus will get a gnarly flayed-skin effect when they're taking mortal damage.

Air Raider will have three weapons, a throwable, and able to spawn a vehicle. Rangers will also have a vehicle slot and the bike doesn't seem to take damage for running into stuff. I think the physics have changed to allow you do make GTA stunts with vehicles and maybe getting tanks to do flips if you try hard enough.

Does World Bros on switch require wifi to do multiplayer? I gave up trying to read through reviews to figure this out. From what I'm reading it's not the perfect co-op airplane game like I was hoping it would be.

They finally gave Depth Crawlers some health by a magnitude. It moved slow as hell, so it wasn't a high level. Probably too slow to notice if it still had the speed increase if you move diagonally. It now has a dash move. Vehicles seem to be getting a lot of attention this time. Bees now come out of small nests like they were ant hills from the older games.

I wonder if they'll bring back battle hymn of the republic as a melody because it was both perfect in 4 and also an excellent parody of a song I normally don't care for.

Cowman posted:Any ideas when EDF6 will release in the states? I want to play it already! It has a JP release date of Aug 25. If the gap from JP -> EN console -> PC is anything like EDF5, we'll be getting it on PS4/PS5 next August, then on PC early 2024 or so.

Rhyming "aliens" and "homosapiens" owned. The EDF 4 song was way more catchy, though.
