MSGO General

The previous general lasted 22 days. Will this one be even slower, I wonder?

I suppose it really is a fringe game.

>>13929015
How many Eng players do you think we have? I'd say around 100-150 Max. Which is pretty fringe.

>>13929024
I'd say 50 at the most currently.

>>13929031
Does anyone have any recent numbers on total playerbase size? I wonder if it correlates.

Just enough to get pissed off enough to want to through my laptop through a window.

Someone asked about multiple IPs in the previous thread, and - I haven't seen trouble with multiple IP's simply because you will always be connecting through a japanese router node. However, having multiple accounts is apparently frowned upon. Or at least a pal was keeping another pal's account alive while they couldn't play, and it just got deleted without warning. Alas.

>>13929166
Voted daily but it's getting harder and harder due to the ping issues. I swear I get lagged to death by some edgy little Pixie shit every match.

I counted before and most of the team was 2 whole seconds ahead of me when first launching and my PC is quite good.

>>13929490
My Britbong internet is depressing.
Yet I wonder why I play.

How many times has happened /msgo/?

>>13929632
It occurs approximately 5 times a match for your average Zeon player.

I do get a lot of satisfaction of managing to shotgun one down myself with one of my Zakus. A small justice, if not a sufficient one.

>>13929252
I figured i was already nearing "dangerously vague differences between options"

The important thing is that you play n_n

Is this the kind of japanese online game that tracks if you use different IPs?
I used to use SoftEther VPN for Dragon's Dogma Online before they said fuck off to all the gaijins and wanted a permanent IP
I wonder if it's even worth starting this game if that's the case

>>13931093
see >>13929391
and no, I don't think they care about our IP changing and I switch nodes often.

>>13931093
Nothing of the sort has happened for quite a while. I don't see why it would.
Obviously don't make a noise in chat and things will stay dandy.

Has anyone translated the menu for setting up the BGMs? It's pretty simple but some stuff still escapes me.

Also I've decided to get the Tri-Star Zaku II instead of the Ridden Goog. Should I go for Charge Zook or Double Zook?

>>13933644
I recommend double zook because it has stronger anti-air capability. However, the charge zook can certainly rock people's trousers off if you get rocket shooter.

>>13933375
This is kinda important in several ways. For example, speaking english, or even looking foreign seems to draw the bully out of Japanese players. At one point I tried to make suggestions or requests with my clumsy communication abilities like "A -> Z" or "X radar kudasai", but had to stop when players started responding by spamming nonsensical english phrases - especially "OH YEAH!" - whenever I dared to post. I suspected they'd get even more manic if I responded, so I stopped communicating altogether.

>>13933644
Definitely go with the double zook F Type. Other suits will fill your satisfaction for charge zooks. The F type zook rack is a lot better since the buff, and will give variety to your playing style.

Mine isn't even rocket shooter and I get a lot of mileage out of them.

Oh fuck I ranked up into gold bracket and I want to go back. Jesus this is awful.

>>13934102
I think you can get away with doing what they do when they spam "xxxxx" or "yyyyy" When someone is moving a bomb in there or something and nobody seems to notice. I've done it once or twice and said nothing else. I've also had a few JP people jump into my party back before I realized how to make it private and they seemed alright.

Though to be safe, I generally just don't communicate in anything more than the automated quick-emote things.

Just played a Konpeito map where someone was using a Zock. He had a Zaku worker with him who wouldn't heal gun anyone but the Zock. Crazy shit.

>>13933644
W type double zook, max range and aoe. airburst like mad and watch the assist points rolling in, especially if you got the aoe passive.

>>13935316
Uh-huh. I think in this era of progressiveness and liberalism we should be allowed to pick the same premium hairdos for male pilots too. I would completely change my blonde afro for a purple Haman broomhead. It would galvanize my image as a complete Hamanfaggot.

Giving this up is hard...

I wish I knew the English community was on Shangri-La sooner.

>>13936128
How do the funnels work? Are they fire and forgets?

>>13936153
Lock on like most missiles and then let them all get to the target, then fire.

>>13936153
>>13936193
Pretty much. When a viable target appears on the crosshair, the crosshair turns yellow, and the enemy health bar appears on them. If you right click, your funnels zoom off after them, the enemy gets the funnel warning, and as the funnels start locking on, your funnel bar will fill up. Left click then, and you'll fire your fun fun funnels. There is a significant delay in between triggering and firing, enough that players can use it to avoid the beams by moving in a arcing fashion that is too much for the funnel tracking, but the targets to look for on a Qubeley are the ones who simply do not have the luxury.

Also, one of Qubeley's stronger points is its harassment ability. It can lock on and cause lockon warnings but neglect to fire quite a bit, so my favourite thing to do when I have only 1 shot left is to just trigger warnings and cause enemies to flush out of cover.

>>13936128
For people who mained server 2 and want to play with english players. I would say go with Goonsquad, but we have been holding on for dear life for months now, too many of us have full time jobs, heavy schooling, or just life in general. At most 5 of us would be on at a time. Normally it ususally 2 to 3, and those 2 to 3 are hugely separated by rank, usually 2 golds and 1 bronze. I personally only really squad up with two of my friends in GS. Not even Steparu hops in to play the new updates anymore since December. Hell, I may just joinup with neo-goons in my S1 alt now. He doesn't have a home.

>>13938127
Sounds like Whitepiggu

>>13938127
>>13938147
I think we have in total enough english players on in the evenings to platoon daily. The problem is everyone's scattered, doing their own thing, and most of all, not scheduling or organizing anything. Heck, not even communicating.

Me (Valdemar) and my buddy Vern have been playing pretty regularly. Though I think I just made it to Lieutenant whatever, and am in gold. He's in Bronze. We still play together but some of those games are terribly frustrating desu. Either we get an amazing team, or a team that just does jack shit. If you see me on, say something in chat I'm always down for more squaddies.

I'm on Shangri-La server, my Feddie name is Kaster and my Zeon name is Zanzen, hit me up if you wanna play together. Still getting used to the UI though.

Guess there's no ETA on when the game will be back up huh?

>>13938706
Doesn't seem that way.

>>13938616
The english wiki does a lot to help when it comes to upgrading stats on mobile suits. And the lists for modules and whatnot are pretty accurate and up-to-date

>>13938603
That's the usual rhythm of matchmaking. The good gold players stick together and deploy together and play tryhardly to make sure they win, and the slimiest groups on both sides stream their games in order to show that when one "elite" group is queuing for a game, other "elite" groups do not, to ensure everyone gets to kick scrubs instead of fight eachother.

>>13938725
lol what? Really?

That's some truly slimy ass shit.

Also what's with the Zeon commanders? My buddy got kicked from a game and wasn't able to play for 15 minutes because he refused to suicide run the ship into the enemy base.

Very next game, our ship suicide runs in and dies early, and we lose hard because the enemy ship was still up and pounding the central fight zone(Not sure what it's called. The yellow circle area).

Are they fucking stupid? I don't get it.

>>13938731
>My buddy got kicked from a game and wasn't able to play for 15 minutes because he refused to suicide run the ship into the enemy base.

Did he go commander? If you can't into japanese, you should never do that. If he was just the pilot, then I believe the team/commander had some form of plan for it, which he spoiled.

Refusing to one-sidedly fly a carrier into the enemy base is just stupid. If the carrier is a base, then it's somewhat understandable, but carriers are meant to be suicided to form breakthrough drops. If you decide you know better than the commander whose plan the entire rest of the team is going by, expect to be kicked.

Just don't grandstand. If you can't speak or read Japanese and don't know what's being planned, don't pilot. If you do that, you deserve to be kicked.

>>13938788
No the carrier WAS the base. It was the map where it spawns.

And no, we've never tried to play Commander. I know how badly that would go. But honestly, what plan do these commanders have other than smashing the ship into destruction? From context clues it seemed like the guy wanted him to fly it right into B and get killed.

>>13938794
Fly the ship in, everyone drops down (spawn), ram your ship into theirs so both dies, proceed to attack their base.

>>13938788
I think he meant the carrier bases (B and Y) in the two maps.

>>13938794
In high level play, the best tactic with such carrier bases is a sneak drop, in which the carrier ship goes to the enemy base, drop some goons to hit the ground base, and scoot away while still dropping more goons to kill the enemy carrier pursuing. This means moving the carrier in a position just enough to u-turn in case it gets spotted, and go the long way around to avoid getting detected (as well as the crew to not shoot any of the guns). Especially in the desert map where there are tons of places to sneak and kill their ship without yours, so ground base damage is crucial. In the 08th MS map (the one with the battle area / yellow circle) you can still kill the enemy ship without yours with the help of SFS, although having it alive does hurt bad because of BA control point.

>>13938794
have you seen the chat?
they might be preparing for the drop, thus waiting for spawn at the ship for the pilot to bring them forward.
zeon is actually very good at smashing battleships with the tetras etc.

>>13938794
>>13938807
Right, base carriers are a bigger issue. But it still reiterates the point that you can't go against the will of the majority... or well, a single jap, if you can't communicate, when it comes down to that.

>>13938807
Another good approach is skirting the base and trying to incite a chase between carriers. But the most common strategy is indeed the act of putting all of one's eggs in the same basket and then throwing it at the enemy base in an attempt to flatten it before the enemy can do the same to your own. It's a viable tactic, and at least keeps the games short, but frankly it doesn't make for a very interesting game.

>>13938902
>it doesn't make for a very interesting game.
seeing >>13938725 , I doubt they care.

>>13938902
Yeah, you have a point.

Though we did have an interesting game. Team commander wanted to go "Immediately Nuclear" so we baited them with a nuke half the game in that map with the north and south tunnels. Had the nuke south, pushed north with about 15-20 suits defending south. Managed to win. Was pretty interesting as far as strats go.

So this is what it means to Zeon, huddle around a repairbot and hide from Pixies...

>>13941181
Feddies think they can get away with that kind of shit just because Zeeks don't get pixies. Then a Gara Zulu/Doga zips around the corner and mows down 4 people with it's fuckhuge melee hitbox

>>13941210
I dunno, I have a Geara and it's not anywhere near a Pixie...

>>13941220
Indeed it is not, as it has something the Pixie lacks: Decent ranged weapons
That being said I am somewhat exaggerating, but holy shit, the melee reach on the Gearas are just crazy big, and the damage is phenomenal.

hey I just downloaded this and I heard you need a VPN to play since it's region locked, do you have to use VPN when you're installing or just for logging on cause I've been having problems with downloading the game from the patcher

It gives me this warning message and I dunno what the fuck

>>13941237
How does it compare to Gyan Eos'?

>>13941254

ahhh ok cool, I saw some dude playing this on nico and didn't realize it was a thing

is it basically world of tanks with gundams in that the gold shit is OP

do you pick a single gundam and run with that for a long time or is it more like a class game where there's many to pick

Am I just being a whiny baby back bitch, or does Feddie have a few more bullshit-mode MSs than Zeeks right now?

>>13941264
Class-based. And no, not really like WoT. At least even with Silver MSs you can still fuck up Goldies. Your shots won't randomly bounce/do no damage because someone has a 'better' suit.

>>13941270
As far as I can tell, for the Zeeks, the only real BS suit is the Quebely, but I'm not well versed in the stats of it all.

>>13941257
>Gyan Eos'?
Don't have one, wouldn't know.

>>13941270
I think so. Hyaku Shitty is balls to the walls insanely over powered for sure, and Fred Pixie is as insane as its ever been. GP01 has to be like the fastest suit in the game. G3 gets dual Charge Bazookas. Alex is well... Alex. And Gundam unit 4 seems to be infinitely more common on the field than Act Zaku Snipers

>>13941292
And they're getting Zeta Gundam soon™ aren't they? What are we getting?

>>13941361
Yeah but the Heavy is super.

>>13941409
and then there's the heavy FA NT1

>>13941264
there isn't a "tech-tree" progression of some sort, you just use whatever you have. there are no "tier"s and everything is on the same match, with more powerful suits have longer team cost and respawn timer being the drawback.
main difference between this and wot / most other games of that type is that matches being 50 v 50 and respawning system makes it not really noticeable for 1 person to carry / fuck up.

there are "gacha"s for you to roll on containing various prizes but what you use would mostly be random depending on what you get.

Yeah i think it's a fair assessment that we (feds) have a lot of good shit right now. I haven't played with an alex but theres that, the gp01 is in fact the fastest suit in the game with retarded high boost charge. It's fucking ridiculous.

The g3 is awesome and all you have to do is charge zook and you win.

Honestly from the receiving end, the funnels one the quebeley are either one shot kills or fucking joke. I can out strafe them in my gp01, but if I'm in my ~280 cost units they get slaughtered cause they don't have the speed capacity to get away a lot of the time.

>>13941527
Can't you shoot the funnels down? Might be worth it to bring out the head vulcans if so...

>>13941543
I don't know, it's probably worth a try i guess. They move so fast though it's probably not really practical

>>13941270
Feddies might have more top tier suits, but the Gerbera Tetra is the best suit in the game, no question.

>>13941270
You'll say the same thing about Zeon when you're on Federation. This game's balance is garbage if you just want to use suits you like.

>>13941292
I've been meaning to ask actually, are the Act Zaku Snipers much of an improvement on Zaku II or Gelgoogs?

I only ever see them using that ridiculous charge rifle that can mow through a whole corridor but do they also have a basic charge sniper for general use?

50 DX tickets in and haven't even got a rental for it.

>>13941257
He's a noob gushing over a bad melee, don't bother.

Gyan's melee is fast and large, but nacht does the same and better at 300 points.

>>13942124
they don't have the normal charge sniper.
even if it does have it why would you use it over the mega beam launcher when the suit had minimal stat difference while having more cost/respawn time (and less module slot for the quick charge module especially).

i've seem to have said before on one of the previous threads, act zaku/gundam 4 while being the best and most annoying 30k+ damage death machine sniper, isn't an "upgrade" for the gelgoog/zaku 2f and plays a little different.

>>13941393
My money is on Bawoo, but don't get your hopes up.

>>13942279
Bawoo's pretty late game, alas.

I guess we'll get something non-Zeta regardless, simply because of how scarce Neo-Zeon's stage time is in it.

>>13942221
No fun in the Nacht though.

Nah. I just left the game and my folder says it's 11gb.

What VPN are you using? Cause if you say the screen flashes white then that's the "Banned IP" flash. You might have to change what IP your VPN is using, or maybe your VPN isn't properly configured to use a JP IP.

>>13942221
I actually really like my nacht. Go with nothing but the sword and get some good kills in. What does its stealth ability even do? From the machine translation I got, it seems to broadcast a 1km radar jammer of some sort? Or am I reading that wrong?

Also I really like my Efreet Custom with the Halberd. Shit's legit. Bazooka, Shotgun, and a sick melee.

I sat there bombing the entrance to the enemy base for a solid 3 minutes, racking up an 18 killstreak but the japs were just to chicken shit to rush the opening I made.

>>13944345
I secretly wish the game stayed GM vs Zaku.
I hope they run a low cost unit event some time soon. The last one was dope.

>>13944348
I notice that too. Japs are way too defensive. The few Ameribros who do try and lead an offensive die pretty quickly cause they're usually completely unsupported. That and sometimes WAY too many medicbots, not enough heavies or assaults.

Exactly what does upgrading Lock on for projectile weapons like MGs change? Does it tighten the area your reticle will stray from the locked target? (That free movement area) or does it add a level of 'auto-aim'?

ahhh I got it working guys thanks for the help

the stealth ability used to keep you from showing up on enemy radar while it was on, since the stealth radar got put in, it is completely useless, 99% of the time fed's use radar it is the anti stealth radar since it works on everything either way.

>>13944433
Nobody knows!

Some say it gives an auto-aim effect, others say it increases the range you can lock-on at. I remember one guy saying it didn't literally nothing and there was no discernable difference between base lock-on and maxed lock-on.

But the truth is, we just don't know.

>>13944433
For direct-fire/projectile weapon, lockon stat increases the stiffness of the lock and reduces deviation from the target. It also retains the lock more on sudden/large movements (which also means it's harder/impossible to disengage locks by simply swiping the mouse quickly away from the target).
This ensures hits on close range or high projectile speed weapons while making it impossible to manually lead moving targets on longer range or slow projectile speed weapons, so it's not always beneficial.
Basically, it's good for shotguns and short range machineguns, not so much on beam rifles and zooks depending on how you use them.

What are some good volumes to get from the Gatcha? I'm prone to sniping and support, zookas and the like, anyone got a solid pack to try for?

I see a lot of zeeks using the Gelgoog J and Feddies using the GP04, I think it was. Gold, of course, for their charge sniper rifle.

>>13945034
Zeek, but I might also get a Fed pack if I am content with my ten rolls for Zeon.

>>13945039
The Gelgoog is nice, but I'm a massive faggot and like suits partially on their looks, and the Gelgoog doesn't do it for me. :c

So im a cis white American that likes gundam

how friendly is this game for me yo playm do I need to know alot of jap to comprehend the game?

I am begging for older units to get their gold only weapons to be available for silvers. Gelgoog M having an FA beam rifle at that cost on a silver is bullshit

Why not a Zudah?

>>13944977
I'd recommend against rolling for the jaeger. It's kind of awkwardly big and like the GM sniper II holds a niche it's not that effective at. The best dedicated, no frills sniper is probably the 30 ticket exchange sniper unit. 260 cost means the respawn time is good, has decent module counts, has both the ammo box and the standard type F rifle.

The best suit for using the charge sniper rifle is the Zaku II sniper / Gm sniper custom. They have a decent loadout both and enough module slots to equip a level 3 charge module. If you want a mid ranged sniper with good stats you're going to want the 50 ticket sniper. The federation definitely got the better deal here, with a built in saber and a special module. The zaku gets a megalla though, which is nice. Another option is the Hizack Custom.

4th/Act sniper are also available choices but I don't have a lot of fun playing 4th. You just end up spamming your beams down chokepoints mostly, or hiding behind buildings to instagib people.

>>13945081
Is this today's "I don't want to hear that from you thread?"

>>13945081
I see, solid advice, thank you. I wasn't too fond of the Hizack on my other account honestly, but maybe that's me.

But still, I need a good volume, I got gatcha tickets and can never decide which to roll.

>>13944636
If you are a noob, at least. That's why you use stealth sparingly, and if you intend to rat with it, you first make runs destroying radars, and hunting down the supports placing them.

Or then you use nachts to hunt. It goes like this: you first go into a familiar area where you know you'll find radars. You follow the bips, kill the radar, and then "pop" the stealth by activating and deactivating it quickly. Since you've already presumably killed all radar coverage in the sector, you'll note that since you activate your stealth you'll leave their map, but deactivating stealth doesn't re-reveal you. Then you get a separate location with a good view, and see if someone comes to snoop. If not, you continue to the next radar and repeat. Finally, once you've cleared a path far enough to the enemy base, you can start considering actual ratting.

If you intend to rat, though, you really need to bring grenades. The Nacht is purposefully weaker than the Fred in this regard, as the Fred has impact grenades, which are far, far more convenient for destroying mines invariably scattered on the doorways and floors of bases.

>>13945068
This, this so fucking hard. The Gelgoog Marine is fucking incredible. Is there anything like it with a similar cost on Federation?

>>13946727
Almost all Fed assault suits above the 260 treshold get beam weapons, and they benefit of the same boost that made google marina viable. The difference is in that these suits generally have a far smaller body profile. To count some out: GM WD, GM Custom, GM II Semi-Striker and GM Command have single-shot beamers, GM Cannon II - which was the mirror unit to googly m - has a FABR, Qubeley shoulder cannons/beam magellas and a beam-coated shield at silver while being the same 280 cost, and GM Assault Late Type gets a high-ROF 3-burst beamer and a single-shot standard beamer. From thereon suits move on to 300-point territory or other classes.

>>13946629
Are the stun daggers worth taking on the Nacht? I've been running with nothing but the D-type sword on my silver Nacht and getting decent results. But of course I could always be doing it wrong.

>>13946987
They're fun toys, and they can work out when a pixie is trying to come straight at you. They are, however, hard to hit. Expect to be forced to practice tons before you get it right.

It's not like you'd hit anyone anyways, what with your American lag.

>gold blueprints cost 5 million fed dollars
This shit is unacceptable. The upgrade from silver to gold doesn't justify the massive increase in cost.

>>13948155
That's why gold suits are acquired primarily by DX gacha. Events notwithstanding, being inferior suits as they are, except for the past Rick Dias/Marasai one.

>>13948176
Thats kind of fucked but I can understand why they do it.

>>13947817
I like maps that start you you off with a battle ship, specifically the version that isn't in the desert. Antarctic base is the worst map in the game and I hope they never bring it back ever.

>>13948203
Antarctic is, sadly, one of the most rotated maps. If not the most. There's no way they'll pack it away, because it's the one map they feel satisfied with.

>>13948179
Yeah. If you play daily with your character, and more actively during events, you can expect to roll one DX super roll every month. If you want more, or if you want to play less and still get to roll, you have to put money forward.

I am told you can save 5mill quickly too, in matter of a month, but for that you have to play relatively actively, especially during events, and more importantly buy, build or upgrade nothing. Just use what you have and put every cent you get on saving towards 5 mill, with no deviation.

For me, it keeps being impossible due to new suits piling up, and usable parts. I'm too dependant on them, I think.

>>13948213
>because it's the one map they feel satisfied with.

I only got 20th on the team in my first match with real players out of the rank 5 training sets with nothing but RX-78 rental, that MS, and a Guntank.

>>13949542
It is good. Maximize boost recharge though.

The main perks are the bazooka, shotgun, shield and speed. However, your melee is worse than most Fed suits due to Dom-ism.

Also, this suit is relatively cheap for its quality.

Not sure what I should be putting on my White Dingo GM. Module wise, that is. I have the Beam Shooter passive, so I gave him a Beam Spray Gun M Type, and the strongest Beam Saber. I seem to recall what I was going to do with him was use the beam spray to KD people, then switch to the beam saber to melee them. So I guess quick switch module? But then what else should I put on it?

>>13950854
Thats exaclty what I did with mine, put the level two fast switch module on it and it seems to be alright. Really cant seem to find any use for it now tho since the U.C. 93 update. Good luck with yours.

So why does every little bump and scrape knock my MSs to the ground, but Feddie MSs never seem to even be bothered by a charged zook shot?

On the flip side of that, the Efreet Schneid, even the silver one I have at level 35 is tons of fun.

>>13953544
>>13953553
Why bother censoring the names? It's not like we're gonna hop in and harass those folks. Just be stressing your head over a whole lotta nothing, I think.

And are you sure you're suits are properly upgraded and have good modules? Chances are you're fighting folks who've stocked up on the anti-stagger stat and modules. And does your charged zook suit have the rocket shooter passive?

But I've seen it happen plenty of times. Shoot someone with a charged zook, they get KD'd. I switch to the Stromfaust and blast 'em while they're down.

>>13953544
>>13953553
Ayy if your gonna post a "fixed" pic you better delete the other. And as a feddie/zeek player I always get knock down by zooks even my MkII gets fucked up by zaku heavy F types. Just try getting your hands on a based gelgoog ground type and use the charged br, almost all feddie suit get knock down from it, except Hyaku Shiki and most new suits. Just stop complaining and use a suit that compliments your skills.

>>13953553
>So why does every little bump and scrape knock my MSs to the ground, but Feddie MSs never seem to even be bothered by a charged zook shot?
because nips can't balance games for shit

>>13953567
Yeah I posted the first one normal, I dunno. I've seen people censor their stuff and some not. Was just deciding to play it safe.

But yeah, maybe my modules aren't right. What is the Anti-stagger stat? Is that the load limit one?

>>13953574
Ehh. Just a little frustrating at times is all. I want that Gelgoog. I have an M currently, and once I roll a gold Efreet Schneid I'll be looking for the Ground Type.

>>13953595
積載量 Load capacity, yeah. Though it was nerfed a while back so it's not AS vital as it used to be. Still, it never hurts to have as much as you can afford to toss on, as it does let you equip more on your suit without getting any negative modifiers.

>>13953595
censored stuff probably weren't oc and comes from random jp imagehosts (like mmoloda) or bbses.

>>13953595
Yeah the whole game is frustrating most of if not all the time. I just try to stay calm when the shit hits the fan. But they just threw the Ground Type on the GS gashakon if that helps, kind of doesn't sense you barley get any GS ticket drops. Good luck on that gold roll haven't had anything good in sometime.

>>13953646
What stats do you propose prioritizing then? I've mostly done boost speed, duration, and recharge. With some in Armor and load if it's a gold and I have some space left. I mostly ignore recall because while I can see I've used it in a useful manner a few times, it just doesn't seem worth putting tickets into.

>>13953663
Honestly depends on the suit. Some suits are slow no matter how much you pour into boost speed. So it makes sense for slower heavy suits to not put too much into speed and go more for armour and recharge. But suits like the Kampfer, Zudah, Doms, certain Zakus and Gelgoogs, you wanna pour into speed to help with early base rushes or just general harassment. In fact, I recall some mentioning always having a max Speed Dom with the 40k zook for suicide rushing bases. Though I can't recall now which Dom specifically it was.

So, did they remove tickets from the post game drops or have I just gotten terrible luck so far? No tickets of any kind at all today.

Besides the Gelgoog J, is there any Gelgoog with a charge beam rifle?

Good luck. You'll get to top 5 yet.

If anything, learn to gauge the airburst distance of your Zaku II's F-type charge bazooka, and then start using that on sniper positions or other obvious cover locations. That's good points.

>>13955882
I got the Zaku II S Type from the daily ticket exchange shop. Sadly I didn't get the Weak Shooter passive. Still it's got a charged sniper rifle and even with only a Quick Charge 1 module it still charges up fairly quick. Then whatever it hits but doesn't kill it almost always knocks down so I switch to the 135mm Rifle Type M to finish the poor guy off.

But for most Feddie snipers just the charged sniper rifle alone does the job, I noticed.

>>13954853
I remember the last year's event. In fact, it's almost an exact year from it, I think. It was less Pixies, because it was water maps all the time to facilitate Water Gundam superiority.

It was a complete fuckjob. They made it as certain as possible that Zeon would be disadvantaged in that measure. Gold tier was nothing but Water Gundams. Silver and bronze were a little better simply because the lower tier players didn't have full decks of those shitters, but they still flooded the game with Aqua GM assaults. This was fuckery enough since it's the one thing Zeon doesn't get - a non-DX assault water unit, made worse by the broken hand anchor.

>>13956003
Just go find an open area, eyeball a landmark, and fire at it. Move to adjust hit. Then try to "walk" with it, occasionally testing the distance. Once you feel confident enough, locate a chokepoint position or other frequently occupied point, and start bombarding it.

I recommend using charge bazooka F and magella F as they have identical range. Also, be careful of your allies cutting through your line of fire. They like to do that, and cause you to eat your own explosion.

>>13956061
Marine Zakus are amazing though. I loved every moment of it.

>>13956076
>Also, be careful of your allies cutting through your line of fire.
That happens a lot. Even without using a zook I'm always shooting my comrades in their backs. I guess it's good for them that friendly fire is off. Cause I'd have the high score without a doubt.

>>13954853
The zaku event looks amazing, too bad its on a wednesday. Both zeon and feds are given mirror suits of zakus so it all comes down to the group of players

Next to your character portrait, click the long silver button with BC on it. It will open a web page

You can use VISA if you want. I've done it, it works fine and I'm also not banned. Been a year or so and I've done it a few times.

Prices are about 1.00$ to 100 BC.

The coins won't show up until you press the refresh button next to that BC button you pressed. They're usually instantaneous though.

Is this game p2w or something? Is it actually good?

also is there any gundam simulators around? Like with buttons and levers DCS flight sim style.

>>13958674
>also is there any gundam simulators around? Like with buttons and levers DCS flight sim style.

I fucking wish.


Also I wouldn't say P2W exactly, because evenwith the paid tickets for the gasha, it's still a fucking Gasha and you can get garbage. Though statistically speaking if you throw enough money at it, you're bound to eventually get something nice.

From my experience, for the most part, the game is just simply unbalanced, but pay walls really have nothing to do with it.

>>13957835
Hmm. Might be your bank end blocking them. But yeah, they have some weird pay systems.

Does the charge time module affect the Gelgoog sniper's charge? Because it doesn't seem to be.

>>13958421
I like that. I like that very much. Admittedly, she looks like a statist that explodes in a three-second recycled clip where a zaku shoots and a gm explodes.

Cute regardless.

Can you only win a certain number of GS tickets per week or something? I haven't seen any more.

>>13958793
It should, certainly. Charge modules have small percentages, but it should still quicken it.

>tfw got into the 20s by just always remaining inside the battle area
The constant stream of +3 points adds up after a while. I even got someone by blind firing my charged zook.

>>13961345
Similar happens if you pay attention to the blue and red squares on your map. It's your commander setting commands, and if you get kills/points around them you get points for being near that objective as well.

Is the barzam worth rolling for if already have a mk2?

>>13961692
Why settle for just one cancerous overpowered suit when you can have 2?

>>13961775
When you're right, you're right!

MS build up event next maintenance. Event grants better percentage to upgrade on MS stats.

>>13961831
That only the suit stats or does it include the weapons too? Cause I might be able to rework my charge sniper to have both max damage AND max range.

Is there a way to make howitzer/zook projectiles fly faster? Or is that based on range?

I've noticed some weapons' projectiles just seem to fly faster and other slower.

>>13962146
I believe it's based on the weapon type. I believe S type weapons tend to be the fastest, but aren't always offered. F tends to be slowest, but hits the hardest. Everything else tends to split the difference.

>>13962159
Ahh okay. Thanks.

>>13961692

Barzam has similar weapon loadout as the Gundam with Mk2 specs, so if he has a gundam it'll probably have the same grenade launcher(Napalm)+zook+ melee/FABR build unless he mixes it up

>>13963447
>>13963462
Yeah, Barzam lacks the head vulcan earmuffs and the shotgunzooka to bazooka instant switching. It however has a big dual-wield melee a la gundam, a sturmfaust that instant switches with its BR, and an upgraded F bazooka that has extra ammo. It has a slightly weaker shield than Gundam, but better speed.

Just rolled a silver GP04 yesterday, damn this motherfucker is sexy. Can't get the hand of the 3 shot LBR though. Seems like it lacks any real range to use it as a sniper. Is it worth using over the Beam Bazooka one?

Grats brew.

What's the best strat when they park their carrier directly over your base and rain troops on it? Cause the carriers are so high up you can't physically shoot it from directly under, and anywhere you could shoot it from it can shoot you too.

There needs to be AA suits, suits that can shoot directly above themselves.

>>13966062
artillery mortars

>>13966062
Wouldn't you just go to a distance where you can hit it with long range weapons and take cover when they start firing? Use a charge beam sniper and you only have to be exposed for a tiny amount of time.

I've pissed of feds in those things so much someone has to get out and mark me with a camera gun while they fly around hunting me down.

Another option is the regular beam sniper rifle which was made to attack big targets but they leave you in the open and get you killed unbelievably quickly.

>>13966062
Artillery and Sniper rifles although i am not sure if snipers can even hit the ship on that one map with the arena when they go to maximum height in the clouds

>>13966062
Basically >>13966097, but expect to be hammered by their own suits unless you happen to park on an inconspicuous spot.

Although note that if an enemy battleship managed to get above your base then you'd be pretty screwed either way unless you can keep your battleship intact and minimize the damage done to your base. Proper way to do is to use your own battleship to prevent theirs reaching on top of your base and if possible try to keep it alive by retreating instead of ramming it head on (boosted battleship flies faster than any mobile suit) and keeping it within distance from the enemy battleship so your spawns can actually get to it.

>>13964374
The answer is yes and no. You can change its form to shotgun mode with F, and the shotgun itself is very powerful, but hard to connect with due to unupgradeable lockon. Damage-wise, the BSG mode is weaker than an N-type normal shotgun, but it's subject to beam shooter. Its upside is that it shoots only 3 "pellets" with an accuracy score higher than usual shotguns, making it easier to fully connect and KD with.

The sniper mode has a range of 900, which is deficient for a sniper, but is actually probably the longest range of any weapon on an assault class.

>>13966372
They can, but they need to go relatively far from the base to get a proper firing angle.

I use a range traited desert zaku heavy's missiles to hit it, since missile homing circle reaches a higher angle than the crosshair.

>>13964571
Congrats dude. How do you run the heavy gundam?

I recommend acquiring a FAG. You can get it the easiest on the Jesta/Rick Diaz DX gacha, that has 2 golds for taking.

Needless to say, Rick Diaz is also brutally good. Too fat for gold tier, but great for everything else.

>>13967059
I'm happy with my Gundam Unit 06 and GM Sniper 2, even if he only has Beam Shooter 1.

>>13967059
I'd actually rather take the Heavy Gundam over the FAG anytime, though.
The twin beam rifle seems underpowered compared to the gatling gun and beam cannon.

>>13967084
Remember, the beam gun shoots twice for every single shot. The beams are also very fat and easy to hit with.

>>13967219
still low, normal semi auto and charged beam rifles does similar damage even with both beams combined hit. if not using the missiles, mudrock actually does similar things even better with its high speed.

on the other hand, heavy gundam gatling shits damage rapidly. also, the beam cannon does what a charged beam rifle do without needing to charge and with much longer range.

full armor gundam is just a sad fact that it is an earlier obsoleted release and hadn't really gone through a proper balancing effort.

>>13967282
So sayeth noobathurstra.

>>13967059
The WD MP Guncannon does the same thing with much cheaper cost / time than the FAG. Unless you're thinking of using the missiles on it then I'm just gonna lol.

>>13967282
Full Armor Gundam is one of the best heavies in the game. Heavy Gundam is alright, but it doesn't compare to FA Gundam. You can't really judge game balanced based on bronze/silver.

>>13967282
FAG has Itano Circus bruh, its actually crazy how strong that thing is.

>>13967282
The CBR is for kd and having a bigger hitbox on it makes it easier to kd shieldless flying zeeks for instant death with the instant switch zooks. WD guncannon is does the same shit but have the normal CBR and is alot cheaper.

no it doesn't, the beam has the same hitbox as any charge beam rifle. it fires two so it seems they're easy to hit, but in fact it spreads out a bit and hitting only one of the beam does jack.

highest i've get

>>13969105
That's pretty good. Due to being that high, I feel you would understand how powerful the FAG is.

Yes, the gatling gun is good. The beam cannon is useful as always. The rockets are a nice addition as well. Yet, these weapons don't exactly compliment each other in the same way the FAG's arsenal does. It's a very expansive set of weapons and requires a unique playstyle to achieve the same amount of efficiency you'd might get from the FAG.

I'd compare the Heavy Gundam to something like the Half-Cannon. I love them both, but they aren't exactly "meta" suits. Honestly, I wouldn't call the Heavy Gundam niche though, above average is more suitable.

It's just strange that you not only consider the Heavy Gundam to be more powerful than the FAG, but you also consider the FAG to be underpowered in a way. That's absurd!

>>13969389
no

>>13969389
Do you feel close to getting a gold print or something? Exhausted half the tickets? Even then, it's still gambling...

How many exchange tickets do you have?

>>13969398
I've got it down to 100 tickets left with the suit I want still having 4 silvers and 1 gold. Does the super actually boost your red crate chances in any way aside from brute force?

Don't have any exchange tickets I can spend since I need them for deck cost tickets.

>>13969426
I highly doubt it boosts chances for DX gashacon, but the extra roll helps.

Ah yes, deck cost tickets. Such is the life of a low rank. Don't fret, you'll grow out of them at one point. I haven't used any in years.

>>13969200
or, you could easily prove him wrong by simply showing your stats in it.

>>13969479
Skill of a single player doesn't prove the meta. Look at the majority of Japs in gold that use heavies. What do they use? Granted, you'll see Zaku IIF2 a lot more than the FAG, but that's a mirror of a Zeon suit anyway.

>>13969200
I have both and I also think the FAG is underpowered compared to its cost and what >>13967417 said there is the WD Guncannon as well as the Guncannon II. The Heavy Gundam fills a role neither could.

>>13969489
but it proves whether you're playing in the meta or you're just throwing shit out your ass.

>>13969528
It definitely fills a niche roll, similar to Half-Cannon like I mentioned. I can't stress enough that I love both these suits, and I'd use the Heavy Gundam over a FAG any day of the week.

>>13969533
Who said I play in the meta?

>>13969539
>Who said I play in the meta?
then stop talking about it like you know anything.

>>13969539
>It definitely fills a niche roll
And so is the FAG. In fact it doesn't even have a niche as I don't even see a lot of them running around. Which is understandable, since they wouldn't run it if they have to, as they can just as well run the WD Guncannon or what the tryhards prefer the Guncannon II and GP01 and Alex.

>>13969542
Meta is such a strange word to use in this situation which is why I started to put it in parentheses. What exactly do you refer to when you say "playing in the meta"?

You seem pretty aggressive about this for no reason though. An earlier poster suggested the FAG, and I'm just defending it as I thought it was a good suggestion for new players too.

>>13969590
Yeah, I'd agree with that. The WD Guncannon is such a steal at that cost. The increase is stats certainly isn't worth the cost increase for the FAG. Just remember that in all of these posts I'm mainly referring to >it is an earlier obsoleted release and hadn't really gone through a proper balancing effort

I just think that's a strange claim. The FAG deserves better than this!

>>13969606
>it was a good suggestion for new players too
a 340 cost, underpowered suit is NOT good for a new player, especially when a cheaper more accessible suit (exchange tickets instead of DX) exists.

>>13969610
Totally. That's one situation where I would admit to an obvious Feddie bias. One of the best Zakus in the game is given to the enemy as well... for what reason?
