Schneider Heim posted:I'm playing through Z1. What sort of pilot skills should I get? I used to automatically give everyone Ignore Size Difference and Break Morale Limit, but I've been thinking... I played the two Z2 games and remember giving everyone Continuous Attack, but it's expensive... Any character with good All attacks you're expecting to use a lot: Focused Attack. Any character you're going to use mostly as a squademate: Backup Attack Any character with primarily support Spirits: SP Up. Other then those which I feel are needed I feel it's best done on a case by case basis. Pick what you think will fit each character. For instance, when I LPed Z I saw that Banjo and Duke have very good Skill stats, comparable to Amuro and Kei's, so I taught them Attack Again and they worked very well. For Shinn I wanted him to ram to SEED activation as fast as possible, so he learned Will+(Evade)

Z1, the last major SRW to not be a sequel had 20 series. And of those 5 of them (Daitarn, Xabungle, Char's Counterattack, Mazinger Z and Great Mazinger) were unit only. So effectively 15 series.

Supremezero posted:... weird. Upgrading Black Getter before getting Shin Getter upgraded Shin Getter, even though you keep Black Getter. That... normally doesn't happen in these games, I think. Nah there are plenty of times in the series when a unit will pass down upgrades even if you keep it. For example the Zeta and Destiny Gundams in Z1 will get all the upgrades you give the Gundam Mk. II and Impulse respectively.

RoyalScion posted:I was never really sure how much attacker is worth vs raising the stat; since attacker is so expensive (2k PP) you can pay for 100 CQB/RNG stat upgrade. The way damage is calculated in SRW it's 2 points In an offensive stat to up damage by 1%. Dr Pepper fucked around with this message at 01:26 on Mar 1, 2017 |

Pretty much every modern SRW uses that formula. Don't know when exactly it came into being, maybe Alpha or Alpha gaiden?

I'm pretty sure the only time there's been any cross series pilot swapping has been when Turn A Gundam is in the game, in which case they're thrown into the UC Mobile Suit pile, and in SRW 4 where the Real Original could also pilot UC Mobile Suits. And the plot based instances in MX and Alpha 3, but those aren't freely swappable.

My complaint about the Akatsuki is from Z1, I don't have V yet. Akatsuki doesn't seem to be in V. As for Z1, it's locked to noted war criminal Neo Roanoke.

Tiger Shark posted:So I finally received my copy of SRW V from Play-Asia. This is my first SRW game so there's a ton of stuff that I don't understand and the game doesn't seem to explain. Like what do all the stats mean? HP and EN I figured out, what does Armor, Mobility, and Sight do on a Mech? I can guess CBQ and RNG refer to melee and range, but do they affect damage or hit rates? What does the Potential Lvl affect? Should I be rank up Mech stats, Pilot stats, or open up the skill tree first? How long is it going to take me to get used to O for confirm and X to cancel? Actually the controls in general always throw me for a loop when I'm in menus. I always find myself wondering if I should hit Triangle or Square to bring up what I need. This is actually the first game in a long while that I wish I had a printed instruction manual for. CBQ and RNG effect damage. Hit rates is based off the Mech's Accuracy stat and the Pilot's HIT stat. The way Potential Works is that it increases a units Hit Rate, Defense, Evade, and Criticial Hit Rate as the unit's HP goes down. The level determines at what point the skill starts to take effect, while increasing the range of the effect. Level 1 Potential will trigger when the unit is at 10% HP or less. This same boost will happen at 90% HP or less at Level 9, and the boosts will increase the lower the HP and the higher the level. So Level 9 Potential at 10% HP will actually be rather tough, accurate evasive, and crit like mad. Mechs and Pilots are developed on seperate tracks with seperate currencies, so don't worry about that. Upgrade who you like.

No, it's not possible to see everything in a single playthrough. There are always route splits that send half your units on different directions. And yes, equal spreading out of upgrades works fine.

I think OG1 is the lowest power SRW. At the very least it's one of the most Real Robot heavy.

Tae posted:Not in Z1. A ton of those missions are just like 2-3 hour fests, like the one mission that basically requires you to pre-aim an AoE at a spawn point of Titans. Or that one map where you have to kill like 7 series bosses across a huge map. Of course, Z1 didn't have buyable SP Regen. On the other hand, Z1 had so many SP battery squadmates by endgame I didn't need it.

As someone who got into SRW and mecha thanks to OG1 and OG2 I love the originals. Setsuko is one of my favorite video game protaganists.

MightyPretenders posted:I was sure that the theme of J was Human offshoot/Human aliens/Human faction is space-racist against those who live on earth''s surface - Copy-paste 12 times. The theme of J was people being forced to battle their friends, family, loved ones, "own kind" etc. Like, take every plot used and you'll see this connecting thread. Plot wise they didn't do a great job tying all the series together but the vast majority of the series have this theme.

Stardust Memory takes place post OYW, which would kind of go agains the idea of an SRW with the OG Gundam as a central plot.

AradoBalanga posted:Ugh, hearing Main Title being used for the gorillionth time for CCA disappoints me. Seriously Banpresto, what did Beyond the Time do to you to make you so adverse to using it? They only use it when they're actually doing the plot of CCA. When it's Units only or Post-series it's just Main Title

Tae posted:OG1 suffers from 90% of the units being some sort of gespent I'd say this isnt totally a downside. OG1 is actually pretty interesting in how it's the lowest power SRW ever. You mostly have cobbled together Mass Produced units for much of the game and very few explosive powerhouses.
