GoD factory got released recently. It's similar to strike suit zero but multiplayer. Pretty cool but not that many players online.

>>11350190
I really need to reinstall SSZ and finish that. I got up to... The mission where you have to lead the enemy fleet into the nebula so your allied fleet can ambush them.

>>11350190
is SSZ good? I've seen it a lot but it always looked like a typical arena fighter or something

Is it not this? I didn't know it had as story

>>11352286
You're probably thinking of Strike Vector which is a shit game

>>11352321
That is exactly what I'm thinking of it looks like

>>11352286
Strike Suit Infinity is an arena fighter. Strike Suit Zero's a pretty decent game. Looks great. The transforming title mecha is sex. And the second mission reminds me a little of Homeworld 3rd mission.

>>11352216
>>11352286
Ignore Zero and go play Infinity.

>>11352355
You're retarded. Strike Suit Infinity is not an arena fighter.

>>11352416
That's what the biop says. "Fight against endless waves of enemies and score points to be top dog!"

Are you saying that isn't arena fighting?

There are still many Japanese PC games with mecha worth translating.

>>11352429
Oh man look at those squishy little humans.

Can you splat them and blow them into little bits?

>>11352468
That and you can customize your suits (also have to worry about HP of individual parts). This came out the same year as Front Mission, and it had a prequel the year before.

>>11352426
It's not. It's just normal Strike Suit Zero but without a story or mission objectives. The stage starts and you try to destroy all the enemies to clear it.

>>11352286
>>11352355


You should play Astebreed instead of Strike Suit Zero.

Also pick up Gunhound EX while you can.

>>11352429
What's this game?

>>11350190
Technically Destiny; what with the cyborg Fallen, the player character race Exo, and the Vex, among other things. Of course, it's not mecha-centric.

>>11352429
God damn it, Japanese games have had those shitty menu based combat systems for fucking ever.

Yeah, back in those days it made sense to do that, but the combat menu for CRW 2 looks almost identical (graphics aside) to stuff you see in modern JRPGs and SRPGs like SRW and G Gen. It doesn't speak well for Japanese developers.

Literally anything else. XCOM: Enemy Unknown/Within's system is pretty good.

>>11354849
It was my first ZOE game. You don't need to know much else as the first game didn't do much world building. This game does all that. If you want the game to be easy use the manual mode for attacking and evading. There are two endings with one having a minor variation depending on whether or not you defeated a character. You'll more than likely get that one as the other requires you to fail a mission halfway through the game. If you want to play for the other ending, keep a separate save before the mission where the "Mars Angels" appear.

To be fair it's a great game, it's just not getting the proper care and attention it deserves at the present time.

You can have a fair bit of fun playing it once you get over some of the meta.

I just recently finished playing B.A.D. Battle Armor Division.

Unlike its acronym, it is actually worth a playthrough. Challenging and fun. Gameplay is very similar to Gun Hazard, Metal Warriors and Cybernator.

I just tested it, it's conceptually interesting, horribly frustrating in practice.

You can feel this is an amateur project, this is buggy, you don't have all the menu you would expect to see (although it can come from the pirate version).

But the real problem is that it was made to be played with a GAMEPAD.
Here it is : You just cannot move and aim at the same time, your shield can only face two directions. Left and Right.
In result :Targeting anything with the machine gun is an hassle and the complex launch missile combination which would be quite interesting had it been a slow spaced game become a nightmare in a game that require you to fight several enemy at once coming from every direction.

Maybe I just SUCK at this game, but for anyone who played "Intrusion 2" before, those controls are unbearable (and Mechs aren't even the main interest in this one).

As for the context and the use of mechs, this is exactly what one would imagine to brand Military Mech as useless against helicopter, tank and infantry.
- Mech cannot move and aim
- Walking is extremely slow even if jumping would imply faster legs
- Wheels only allow you to move 10m at once
- At first you fight on, very flat terrain, with no cover, face to face like a Napoleonic battalion.
- The only allies you have are fellow AI mech with the same flaws that are barely useful as mook.
- And enemies always have the element of surprise over you.

You tell me if I misjudged this game, as far I am concerned the only quality of this game is that someone TRIED.

>>11354826
Why fix what isn't broken? At the very least, it works without being obtrusive in a turn-based game, and in more modern games, the menu disappears when the action happens.

>>11352429
Speaking of old Japanese games, does anyone ever remember this one old game that released close to Front Mission 3 and also on PS1, and featured a similar combat setup?

I recall it had a similar interface and setup, but with bit more of a dynamic fighting element in which the players and enemies set the path they want their mechs to move to, and while moving, would open fire on any opponents within range of their weapons, in a sort of mecha drive-by shooting. It was never ported to the US.

That sounds a lot like Zeonic Front's combat system. I didn't know there were games predating it that used similar systems.

>Why fix what isn't broken? At the very least, it works without being obtrusive in a turn-based game, and in more modern games, the menu disappears when the action happens.
Because even if something isn't broken, that does not mean there is not room for improvement. For example, after the original X-Com game game out, lots of turn based strategy/tactics games aped its UI and mechanics, and never improved on them. As time went on, less and less people played those games, until they became ultra-niche before XCOM: Enemy Unknown shook up the formula with a better UI and tweaked mechanics that felt accessible to a wide range of gamers.

The main mech is literally a Heavy Gear.

So from a guy who's never played either

What are the differences between SSZ and SSI?

I've heard all SSI is is SSZ with the plot turned off, you just get fed enemies forever. Are the fights varied? Is it just survival?

Also are the missions in SSZ that are not available in SSI any good?

Also question regarding the robot you pilot: Is it just one specific one? Do you get to chose one? Customize?

What happened to that Kickstarter game with giant sprites where you pilot a Snoopdog lookalike? it looked promosing

>>11359551
The mechs are... Barely. They're more walkers than anything in the first two, and the third one had a lot of wasted potential for griiiiind.

>>11360270
Nope, you're pretty much spot on. Its certainly more faithful to the old SNES Cybernator/Gun Hazard or Gigantic Army games, without doing much improvement over them. It also brings their weaknesses, like limitation to aiming the shield as you pointed out.

I played it with keyboard, using the arrow keys to move, spacebar for jump and QWEASDX for shields, weapons, utility stuff.

It certainly takes some effort getting used to, especially with the needlessly complex 2-step secondary weapon system, but its possible to get comfortable with it enough to use it fairly fluently. I played the first mission a few times, changed the controls a couple times until I felt ok with them.

Despite the flaws, I did find myself enjoying it. It offers 16 missions that are challenging, but fair once you figure out the controls properly for yourself. You assault bases, do d-day style beach landings, fight a giant space boss, explore a huge complex with traps and turrets.

Very satisfying for a single playthrough if not much else.

Then again, I am desperate for games with mechs in them.

I just remembered this. This is a game that resembles that old battletech game where you played as a mad cat fighting those robotech transforming airplanes.


Its an arena combat top down shooter that has you fighting an uncertain amount of enemies in a random generated city with a vehicle or mech. Looks interesting.

Yeah, that's the only thing I've seen recently.

Heavily considering it but I'm a bit wary after Strike Suit. But to be fair I only splurged on Infinity and I liked its gameplay despite flaws. Or it's just the soundtrack hitting when the final wave happens.

>>11361168

I could only speak of Infinity so here's what I know.

Infinity is pretty much Arcade Mode Strike Suit Zero. You pilot one of three Strike Suits (each with their specialties, oh and they're all customizable to an extent like what loadouts you can put on it) and for each mission it's just wave after wave after wave. Sometimes there's taking down big cruiser ships, sometimes it's taking down carriers before they escape. Most of the time it's SHOOT EVERYONE DOWN.

Artdink's Tokio puts you in charge of an O'Neill cylinder space colony, leaving to you city management, station maintenance, and control of spaceflight to, from, and around the area. Not so much Gundam as it is a wacky idea in the Japanese bubble economy, but you get to run shuttles and wrangle with politics, so close enough.

Tokio 2's a bit different: whereas you run an orbital ward of Tokyo in the previous game, the sequel lets you run an independent station-state however you please. If you wanna have an Egyptian-themed city, go right ahead!

It's easy enough to appreciate if you like mecha. Judged simply as a game though it's not very good. The level design and checkpointing is mediocre at best and terrible at worst, and most of the game outside of the combat feels underbaked.

On the plus side, it looks really pretty, has a great sense of scale (you actually feel like you're participating in big space battles) and being the one guy on the battlefield with the fancy mech feels about as cool and empowering as it should.

first is great for story/survival, second is co-op fun, third has a good story/details but is otherwise dull and poorly thought out.

>>11373075
basically first one/condition zero is sort of similar to the older RE series, lots of snow/desolation oh fuck and resource restraints.

Second one is basically a lost planet equivalent of monster hunter/lobby based hack and slash type game. It's amazingly fun with other people, you can literally attach guns and mount on rumble bars on mechs and clunk around. There's no resource crunch like the first one but its the energy is used to power/ammo specific weapons, give healing, power/repair mechs.

3 has good detail, good voice acting, decent story. But its incredibly straightforward/grinding. Go from point A to point B, maybe grind on Monster X, or backtrack to location Y for energy. Energy is basically treated as money, rather than OH GOD MY AMMO AND HEALTH RELY ON THIS SIMULTANEOUSLY AND I"M CONSTANTLY BLEEDING IT.

Most of the giantfuckyousnowstorms are scripted/closer to quicktime events.

Like even in 2 which had no resource problems. You got stranded in the snow clime while fighting a couple of FUCK HUGE BOSSES, and you had to run around digging things out of snowdrifts to use.

In 3 you just sort of shack up in your mech, come out maybe shoot a couple of low in variation enemies while waiting for it to reboot, or shoot ice off its limbs. And thats really it.

Gundam AGE on PSP

MS Saga (PS2)
Gundam Breaker (PS3, Vita)
Gundam Age (PSP)

>>11374117
Worth noting that Gundam AGE works perfect in PPSSPP, so you can consider playing one on PC. There's a half-translation too.

Who Carnage Heart here? Also an Artdink game, who knew.

>>11367516
Sounds like you need to git gud.
(Also, you can remap them, get over it)

>>11377947
Is it PS3 controller friendly?

>>11370417
Okay, honestly, the Raptor is good against EVERYTHING!

Totally worth the $3.

>>11377951
You play with a Controller? I'm on the Leaderboards and I use a Keyboard and Mouse.

>>11377994
I have one hooked up to my PC, yes.

>>11355664
you don't need to shit on the game right out the gate like that. The game itself is good, balance is just fucked right now which really doesn't matter to someone just starting or to anyone that just wants to get in a mobile suit and shoot niggas

>>11367507
chill out you sperg he didn't even say any master race shit

>>11378026
Could've swore that it was controller friendly.

>>11378057
its controller friendly.

Hey guys... Strike Suit Infinity is $1.39 on www.humblestore.com today only (9/16). You can find that much in change around your house. Some other good deals too. Mount and Blade is 99 cents. Jet Set Radio is $1.24 (get it, see Japan in 2000, it will improve your life).

Lastly, Assassin's Creed 4, which is probably the only good Assassin's Creed game (because it's Sid Meier's Pirates basically) is $13.33 but that's not a mecha game.

They DO activate on Steam.

>playing on Novice

Normal isn't that much worse, anon.
You get to do a lot crazier shit on Normal, too.

Also remember to not get too attached to grabbing the 1UP drop, those are Novice only drops if you've not figured it out yet.

>>11372927
ok because a surprisingly small amount of people know this

the people who made battletech don't own macross (or illegally stole from macross, or made it before macross), they just licensed the designs of their mechs alongside a few other shows (dougram, crusher joe)

the company who distributes macross in america as robotech decided to get on their ass when the game was first released in the 80's, because the battletech guys licensed the designs only in japan with the original studios who made them

despite the battletech guys greatly altering the designs of those mechs the robotech guys still try and sue them every few years, no matter how distantly related the current design of the mech is (usually the jaegermech or marauder)

tl;dr: fuck harmony gold

I hope Gundam Breaker 2 lets me make the clusterfuck Ball that's posted here often.

Or at least a ball with Angel wings and the TBR.

>>11382589
To be exact, that's Heavy Gear II.

Boost mode's the easier mode to get into, for either difficulty.

So try Normal Boost.

Also if you grind long enough for stars you'll eventually unlock the Type Z which, while nerfed in World Ignition, should still be the strongest ship to pick from.
