Dynasty warriors gundam 3! DEATHSCYTHE IS IN!

[SanadaUjiosan]

Heavy Arms = yes.
Acguy = lol

Is Acguy going to be a peon MS, or will it have a full moveset?

[smoth]

no idea, really we just know that acguy and kapool are going to be in. Oh and also the ginn, not that I like that suit but still, nice that we are seeing au grunts as well. If I find out this game will have a leo or tallgeese.. oh man.

[SanadaUjiosan]

At this point, the only thing better than or equal to including Tallgeese for me would be including the rest of the Shuffle Alliance from G Gundam. I know G Gundam is goofy and not many like it, but it was a fun show. And if they're going to include Burning Gundam and Master Gundam, along with that dick Dark Gundam, they should at least finish it out.

If anything from the franchise should be in a beat 'em up, it should be the Mobile Fighters anyways...

Of course, KOEI has an awful track record with including obvious generals/playable characters/whatever. Cheng Pu should have been a playable officer from the beginning of DW.

[smoth]

well, I can see some of the shuffle alliance making it but honestly nobel and Spiegel would be on my list.. because we have 2 samurai and no ninja gundam and nobel gundam could be very cool with regards to the way the attacks would look.

OH

MY

GOD!

[SanadaUjiosan]

Very, very cool. Glad to see they gave the gun-oriented one a good moveset.

Whoa whoa whoa... heavyarms never had a beam saber right? I thought it only had the little heat knife thing.

Could be wrong, never finished Wing.

[smoth]

Dude, I near jumped out of my seat! That moveset is so awesome

when hero piloted it trowa stowed a beamsaber in the left hand for him. pretty much a reference to that.

AM I IN HEAVEN!?!?!

[Pxtl]

I haven't played any of the Dynasty Warriors games since the original (which was just a regular 1v1 fighting game, which is why I get confused when people talk about Dynasty Warriors games - up until your posts about DW Gundam I had no idea that they were anything but another fighting-game series)... is that gameplay typical?

Not the heros - I mean, they look awesome.

I mean the way the enemy extras seem to make a half-hearted attempt to fight. It looked like only a quarter of them were even considering attacking the player.

[smoth]

nah it is a beatem up. There are some tactical decisions but if you are expecting anything deep pretty much need to play grts or ghirens ambition. DW is about beating the shit outa lotsa dudes, you have some strategy and tactics but that isn't the focus, in my opinion it would not be as fun if it wasn't a beatem up

[Pxtl]

I didn't mean that. I don't mind a good beat-em-up. For action games I actually prefer the Doom/Serious-Sam school of "hordes of enemies, fast heroes, and slow-moving projectiles" gameplay.

I'm not interested in high strategy. I just meant that the Zakus and whatnot didn't seem to be putting up a fight. I'd like to see them at least *try* to kick my ass.

[smoth]

The grunts are a nuisance esp on difficult maps I have been killed many times by them and now they are even more aggressive so I expect a much harder fight. A lot of people play dw at the early stages and forget that the game is HUGE and gets much tougher at higher levels. I am 160+ hours into the second one, still unlocking missions and still have not beaten some of the really hard ones.

You also have to deal with other aces which will fuck your day up. They always show like early levels because people like cakewalk when you show gameplay vids but in reality the game can become quite challenging and require you really buckling down and learning your moveset. I know people who beat them much faster by using fast saves but honestly I think that is a gay way to play any game. I only save if I have to leave mid game(which imo is what saves should be for)

[KDR_11k]

What annoyed me about DWG1 was the extreme imbalance in difficulty between fighting grunts and aces combined with the total absence of checkpoints. Often you'd beat up grunts for half an hour before running into a difficult ace that kills you in three hits and then you have to do the whole damn mission again. That is just not fun.

[smoth]

Yeah I remember those guys in 1, they were next to untouchable hp wise also.

New details about pilot upgrades & skills:

"Strengthening Pilots
In the previous game you only gain stat increases by gaining EXP and leveling up.
Here, you can also have Training to increase stats.
Training costs money and it has 4 levels:
Beginner Class (costs 3000 gold), Intermediate Class, Advanced Class, Yazan Team Special
You select partner & operator afterwards, so apparently this training is also one kind of mission type.

Skills are now also gotten through buying from shop. Example is Barrage Shot costing 1000 gold."

I always love how Acguy runs with his hands leaning back, head first.
