So EDF is on the PSN Store under the new add-ons section but it just leads to a blank page. Is it normal for PSN to take this long to release games?

Internet Friend posted:I really want to play Fencer but they just seem so bad compared to everyone else. Their melee is great but the big guns don't seem to do enough damage for how cumbersome they are to use. Mission 23 or so with all the Hectors seems impossible without guns from a higher difficulty. Maybe it's just because I've only played as a fencer in EDF, but I find the guns work fine, you just need to get used to correcting recoil 24/7. Playing on hard, I change weapons for specific enemies, like dual wield hand cannons for hectors and mortars for the smaller things. I also have a boost weapon and javelin catapult to boost cancel. It outruns everything so I'm usually the one to revive others and collect items

Moochewmoo posted:Can someone explain fencer for an idiot? I keep wanting to play the class but everything is so cripplingly unresponsive. If I try and shoot something the animations are so long that I easily get overwhelmed and slaughtered. I'm at mission 65 on hard as Fencer and I have no idea how to survive without using boost cancel. My secondary slots are always equipped with the lvl 14 javalen catapult and a boost weapon like a blast spear. Hold fire button with javelin, spam boost and you can boost 300 times in a row until you have to reload the javelins. Most of the time I'm boosting around looking for a good time to shoot my cannons or missiles at the enemy, but a good spear really helps too. I'm usually the last one alive on the tough missions so I can just kite and shoot my spear inbetween boosts at all the bugs chasing me, it works really well if it can penetrate

What's up with the huge increase in difficulty on mission 96? Once all those elite bugs come out everyone dies, and that's with us being careful not to aggro too many. Playing on hard and took 1500 damage in one shot. I'm pretty sure the team was decent too, everyone had above 2k armor which is rare with randoms. Should I just move onto hardest and try for some better weapons?

Is there any good reason for farming mission 80 instead of 81? 80 takes a lot longer and has less drops but I see so many people running it

Those green ants are insane, the game drops to like 5 fps when I use my blasthole spear on a group of them. I'm playing all the DLC missions on my fencer first, but I'm wondering how are you supposed to survive them as a ranger or air raider? Just keep shooting and hope they don't get near? I was playing with a random and I had to pretty much solo the green ant missions by boost canceling, and even then they were right on me the whole time

What do you guys think of this steamdb leak? Mission pack 1 and 2 make me think it's actually real, but it's listed as "Earth Defense Forth 4.1" https://steamdb.info/app/411380/subs/ https://steamdb.info/app/410780/subs/ I've been getting into this game again but now I don't know if it's worth it to keep going if it's coming to PC.

Yeah I'd get it on PC for the mods. I just hope they don't plan on selling the DLC packs separately again, I've only been able to play them a few times because barely anyone plays.

Section Z posted:I'm probably going to end up using Ranger constantly again. That's when you use the short range lasers and completely destroy them. Except for the mothership. Laser chainsaw was my best friend for most of hard mode, you can pretty much avoid everything if you can land on top of something high up like a dropship. Wait for the hatch to open and it takes like 3 seconds to kill. Same with hectors, the high fire rate makes them recoil so much that they can't even hit you.

I actually rarely play solo so yeah I have no idea how that'll work. In MP all the ground units are going for my teammates which lets me use a bunch of my energy to get close to the big things to take them out. Of course, if you get killed then you're just really far away from your teammates who then have to deal with everything, so it's risky. Sage Grimm's strategy is safer for certain missions where you need to stay together And if you didn't know, you do recharge energy faster if it's completely depleted, so if you time reloads properly you can land somewhere to recharge for a few seconds while shooting enough to stun anything nearby. I can see solo missions taking quite awhile if you don't have powerful WD weapons unlocked

VulgarandStupid posted:Anyone know if this supports ultra wide screen? 21:9 You need to hex edit the exe for 21:9 without stretching quote:Did some quick fiddling around with a hex editing the exe and if im not mistaken the stretching issue seems to be fixed by changing the value 39 8E E3 3F to a value that matches your aspect ratio. Such as 3440x1440 = 8E E3 18 40 / 2560x1080 = 26 B4 17 40.

Dominic White posted:I'm surprised at how good a port this is. The menus are clunky, obviously, and there's not too many options, but it runs silky smooth and even the netcode is rock solid. Mouse controls are tight and precise and responsive too. Yeah I was honestly expecting a terrible port with a bunch of negative reviews, or a decently playable framerate at best with bad m+kb support but it's working great. I keep expecting my frames to tank but it's all been 60 fps so far, even with the genocide gun They still need to fix that AMD issue though Deviant posted:Do the alternate classes like Wing Diver sing the EDF Fight Songs yet?

DatonKallandor posted:This game must be a nightmare on a gamepad, it requires tons of extremely rapid precision aiming. For some of the vehicles I can see it, but that's such a small part of the game. The only thing that really needed precision was sniping drones out of the air, possible on gamepad but it's much easier with the mouse. Red drones pretty much require a homing weapon on gamepad though, thank god this has proper mouse support. I was a playing wingdiver with another random wingdiver and air raider on that one mission where you're swarmed with drones and those laser ships, 57 I think. The air raider brought 2 health posts and just kept putting them down while me and the other wing diver were using the laser rifle and lance to take out everything in the air. We were focusing the lasers on the red drones while they were spinning like crazy, bouncing off all the buildings. It worked surprisingly well.

There were only a few .bats in the game file so I'm thinking they were using them to test for bugs or something Kanos posted:Stage 96: Demon Army online is an absolutely murderous difficulty jump. Quite literally starting the mission covered in a legion of those bastard upgraded drones with the bullshit stunlock lasers and being given roughly 20 seconds to kill all of them before infinity ants/spiders/bees drown you while being bombarded by blue hectors that are also marching towards you and oh here are more drones is the first I've actually become frustrated at the game. My friends and I(Air Raider, Fencer, Ranger, Wing Diver/Ranger) are getting overwhelmed by the initial waves before we even start working on the hives. Probably the hardest mission in the game, you need some good teamwork. Aggro 1 nest at a time so you don't get overwhelmed, cause once you attack the ant hills in the middle you get a bunch of gold/silver bugs to deal with. I always found it easiest to take out the drones and hectors first, then the nests left to right

Kanos posted:Taking out the drones, the initial bug wave, and the hectors first is the problem. We're not even making it to attacking the hives. You guys low on armor? You'll need some decent AA for the drones, their lasers are almost impossible to get away from. And that's not even the hardest part of that mission either. You might have to switch difficulties to stock up on weapons and armor

It's a good place to recharge your battery and then rapier/chainsaw when the hatch opens. I've also been inside the mothership on mission 40 once and was able to do enough damage to skip the 3rd wave, where it deploys all the big laser cannons.
