This mission was a giant pain in my butt. Took me a half an hour jumping between the space and ground sections because I couldn't find the elevator. Also I died a bunch too.

Star Wolf is looking pretty good for some guys who got turned into cyborgs and then splattered all over the surface of Venom

The term for a female fox is "vixen," which probably wouldn't go over any better with Krystal. Loving this LP, by the way.

I miss pseudo-British Wolf, although Subdued Cowboy Wolf isn't too bad. This rendition of their theme is definitely one of the best, though. What a killer trumpet!

Pretty sure it was this rendition of the theme that made teenager me convinced that wolf was some kind of spanish gentleman demanding that you duel for his honor or some poo poo.

While not a great level, Fichina is one of the better examples of the potential of Assault's mixed playstyles. The Landmaster just needed to control better.

It'd also be nice if your teamates helped out too. You're on Falco's Arwing and he's just lazily circling around not firing once.

So, with the comparison to Sonic Unleashed, where the werehog levels were there to pad the game because 3D Sonic running levels are really expensive for how many minutes of gameplay you get out of a level, I'm curious if Arwing levels were more time consuming to make or if they were just wary of how traditional Star Fox gameplay would sell in the early 2000s without on-foot and landmaster stuff? I know that Rogue Squadron III came out around the same time and put a bunch of ill conceived on-foot missions in the game.

you say "Fourth playstyle: turret section! These are actually pretty fun." I say "imagine if it was Barnstorming tho" also his tail flailing in the wind is a funny detail

Are you guys going to show off the special flags? or is that being saved for a bonus episode. edit: watched video four. the multiplayer weapons it unlocks are cool but underwhelming for how much effort it takes. skullhead tethyis fucked around with this message at 05:21 on Feb 7, 2020 |

So how exactly did Pigma wind up looking like the Borg Queen's butthole? Was it just holding on to the core memory unprotected?

I like to assume all the obvious advice like 'don't fly into the wall' is meant for Slippy. Also I'm waiting on the Chekov's gun of the Core Memory that Fox picked up in the first mission to come back. This game seems pretty good, so I hope the next mission doesn't require you to keep Krystal from getting trapped in one again. RareAcumen fucked around with this message at 08:31 on Feb 11, 2020 |

including Pigma, i think Star Wolf's drastic characterization shift is what cemented my sour opinion on Assault. the general ease of the all-range missions while flying vs. the general frustration of being on the ground were the lead-up.

RareAcumen posted:No, we got the first one in the first mission/episode and then Pigma stole the second one. The first one we got was damaged and incomplete, and so it doesn't actually have enough complete information to be useful. That's why we desperately needed the one Pigma stole - it was intact, and thus would likely have all the information they're looking for.

I will say this for the turret section, and your ride's flying: Fox's ability to remain standing on the wing of the ship while in flight is certainly impressive, but the pilot is, after all, trying not to throw Fox off. So they're kinda forced to keep their movements simple, which means they need to rely on Fox and his inexplicable Blaster Bazooka thing to take out any threats.

my new Star Fox game concept: at least 4 player co-op and each level can be approached in multiple configurations, depending on level environment. Barnstorming is always available on levels with vehicles, but try not to lose wings that your buddies are standing on.Jacob posted:It's only the worst thing I ever said cuz Leon's a part of it.

Slaan posted:Why can't they make Star fox games as Star fox games? Same problem as Sonic has. A lot of developer effort for not much game time. You have to carefully design and script the whole thing, and it's over fast. Meanwhile, stuff like the on-foot segments is relatively simple to design, and can be easily extended. It's like Gunpoint V. Heat Signature. Similar dev times, same team, but the scripted campaign of Gunpoint is much, much shorter than finishing Heat Signature's proceduraly generated campaign. If people were willing to pay full price for replaying an hour of gameplay to master it, Starfox style games would be an easier sell, but as the market sits, people tend to want a lot of game for their dollar if they're interested in singleplayer. (Thus, to an extent, the rise of Ubisoft's current formula and GTA V's perpetual money fountain.) ...And, of course, Starfox Zero sucked. That didn't help.
