I had just time this morning to play two missions. ECS on the FMP units is not what I expected, it's a one time seishin buff at the beginning of the stage. Also there are still two Japans.

Its going to be SO hard not to make ALL MY SUPERS use Pierce the Heavens with Your XXX. So 2ch people who beat the game say >Nu Gundam under repairs it will use Unicorn Gundam tech for next game >Char is still neutral >Kamille, Emma, Fa, Banagher head to Shangri-La for repairs to their units. >Shin Mazinger plot isn't finished >TTGL final battle ends incomplete with invaders stopping the battle between Anti-Spiral and TTGL, also a looming Menace of an Emperor(?) >FMP plot is finished, EVOL Finished >ELS appear in the epilogue invading worlds Overall thoughts >Space module 77 was hinted >Hostile Aliens from Jupiter >The Game seems rushed but it's better than Hakai-Hen and animations are great.Maximum break needs improvement, Tri system must return for next game.

Stop hotlinking pics from /m/ you guys the moment the thread 404's they're gone.  Also I hope it's an excuse for Hi-Nu myself. Also I guess the EVA story stops at Asuka getting slamjammed inside Unit-03 Haha I missed >TTGL final battle ends incomplete with invaders stopping the battle between Anti-Spiral and TTGL, also a looming Menace of an Emperor(?)

The Combo/Tag system honestly does a lot to make the gameplay more fun since you have valid reasons to think about your attack order and such.

KoB posted:Can you/someone go into detail about that stuff for us feeble non-japanese readers? Worst part about new systems is that I have no idea what to do for weeks. The combo system is fairly simple: Kill enemies and you build a combo which increases your damage and post-battle rewards. However any action you take without killing an enemy (including just moving units) lowers your combo by 1 instead. Tag Tension is fairly straightfoward: Killing enemies (and I believe leveling up) builds up a Tag Tension meter. You can spend this meter in five ways: Activate Continuous Movement (no longer a skill) Increase your PP for your next kill Increase your Z-Chip gain for your next kill. Restore your SP. Activate a Maximum Break. (Increased damage, both pilots can attack at the same range, ignores barriers, uses the entire tension gauge.) So the ideal way to do stages is to plan out long combo chains and then hit a boss character with either a Maximum Break or a Bonus PP/Bonus Z-Chip for maximum prizes.

KoB posted:Cool, thanks. Are the Tag and Combo systems for the whole team or for individual units? It's pretty fun. You can basically chain entire maps down with continuous attack though for better or for worse, but you pretty much need a very powerful ALL attack to do it since assist attacks aren't always the best (although some pilots have really great assist attacks, like Luca from Macross F who actually uses his banshees for his). Although to be honest I'm hardly touching seishins right now in the game with the new SP system. I can't be bothered to use the tag system to restore SP and I keep forgetting you regen 5 sp a turn now. Enemies just don't seem to have very good stats so far but I'm still pretty early. Maximum break basically allows you to ignore all the limitations with assist attacks. The sub unit can use every single move in a maximum break, and they all act as Post movement abilities as well (so difficult to position attacks can be freely used). In addition you can have them assist with their own ALL attack to your ALL attack. Rascyc fucked around with this message at 22:33 on Apr 10, 2014 |

Yeah I love how much more dynamic the game feels now, although its still like stage 3 only. Its still great though that I have way more to think about now than which unit is above 120 Will and whats the nearest thing it can kill to trigger continuous action.

Okay, this sounds interesting. Can you explain why you put units into tag teams to begin with? I've never really liked tag team mechanics in SRPGs but I guess I'm going to have to in this game. Can you move one tag team and choose to have both units attack independently, like having two separate units in one icon, or all at once like a normal assist?

You get two slots per deploy and there is absolutely no reason not to partner people up. You can choose to have both units attack the same target, both units attack separate targets, or just one unit attack (usually with an ALL attack.)

Can you move one tag team and choose to have both units attack independently, like having two separate units in one icon, or all at once like a normal assist? Every unit in the game has an attack marked as "ASSI" (for assist obviously). Whenever you attack a unit, the sub unit will always use its assist attack as long as it's within range (post movement doesn't matter, they always use the assist attack unless you're maximum breaking). As far as attacking, they took the same system from Z1 but tweaked it a bit. Both units can attack the leader or split their attacks between two enemy units in the same pair. Unlike Z1 though you're still locked to using the assist attack with the partner. If you use an ALL attack, your partner does nothing unless you are maximum breaking and then they can lob in their own ALL attack (they might be able to use a different single target attack, haven't tried). Honestly the mechanics are very simple. If you played Z1, it should all be very similar except now you have a new menu option for spending your tag options. Maximum break is pretty similar to OGs2 but less of a hassle to use.

All of this sounds pretty exciting. I've never actually played an SRW with a squad system before so this is all new and confusing to me, but the way you're all explaining it makes it sound good. Okay, I think I'm down with this. Thanks!

Rascyc posted:Maximum break is pretty similar to OGs2 but less of a hassle to use. Pretty similar might be a stretch. Maximum Breaks were a huge restrictive pain in the rear end to use in OGs2nd and were basically big fancy support attacks that were reserved for blowing up big nasty bosses. This game encourages you to fliff out maximum breaks to kill anything and everything that's just a little too tough for you to bowl over normally. Being able to double up on ALLs and have your partner use post-movement and range restricted attacks freely is pretty ridiculous.

I was kinda bummed when you said continuous action was no longer a skill. Only to realize you can basically act forever so long as you keep killing things. New favourite SRW. Hands down.
