The character designs in this look top-notch. Really excited for it to come to Europe. Great OT!

I think thats the head 2 head stuff. So 4 vs 4 or something and not like 8 players at once co-op.Im curious if there will be a mode where teams can bring in with them 1 abductor each. That would be insane.
For H2H gameplay Im curious what happens when 2 players thorns collide at the same spot. Like for example both of them throw it at each other at the same time.
Man I bet high lv player pvp fights will look insane.
btw hasemo, is the demo data going to be able to transfer to the full title? forgot to look that up. also I need to check if the game actually has any sort of blocking function in it. dont think so though seeing how it uses up pretty much all of the buttons.
pvp is going to be insane. It's gonna be people flying around like shingeki no kyojin !
I don't think we can transfer data, I haven't been able to find anything on it. I hope we can though D:

Thanks man
Yeah its actually why I stopped so I dont get too attached to my character haha. Though it makes for good practice with the movement, since Im still messing up and getting smashed hard at times lol.
Oh yeah I need to go make a title bar for HOVERBOARDS and stick the 2 videos in there instead of being bunched up with the media section.
MSMrRound thanks for sending that tweet out!
Least I could do after you created such a awesome OT=P
Would have linked Nikoro to your Twitter account (if you had any), but I have no idea what your handle is.

haha thanks again man! Actually unfortunately I have no idea how to use twitter so never made an account lol. That and its not like anyone would follow me or Id have much to say anyways
I really would have done more for the OT if my schedule wasnt just so balls to the wall. D: So had to make do with the weekend. If I was on my usual downtime would have done something more complete like the Stranger of Sword City or Sword Art Online one with character descriptions and attempted a few other things.

damn I missed the sign up period for the freedom wars download version pre-order. I never understood how reservations deadline for a non physical copy exist lol. Wonder when it will go live for purchase on the store? thursday at 10 I reckon?

To be more correct its actually 4 players + each players Accessory (AI partner) therefore its still the usual 4 player co-op type of gameplay, but with the additional AI helpers.
I know I know, I just really didn't want to use the term "actors".

Interesting, so thats the actual full DL game size?
Also the Freedom Wars OST will be going on sale July 23rd for 3,500 JPY + tax. No pic of the album cover yet.

Yeah someone else at work checked today and said looks like no save data import from the demo.

This weeks Famitsu will have a DLC code for Freedom Wars. Famitsu decal and some item pack thing.
*Disclaimer OFFICIAL Famitsu magazine page image.
Well yeah, but that information was known even before the demo was released (no local multiplayer and data transfer to the full game), so no surprises there.
But if you mean the game page on the Vita, the option would have been inside the game, which can be accessed yet anyway.

If importing was possible they could have used the "blue suitcase" livearea icon for doing so (like with Atelier, Toukiden and some other games) instead of a straight in-game import. I believe this is what Sitrus was referring to.
Or can't you even enter the livearea?
And at 1,3GB FW is the smallest of the games that extremely lazy people call "MH clones" (Toukiden, RO and SS being at 1,9 and GE2 at 3,3).

They announced long before the demo/"beta" even started that there would be no save transfers.
Oh snap, I've played all the hunting games with data transfer, performed the data transfer from the demo in each of them and didn't even notice that icon. Just checked GE2 and SSD and you're right - it's there. You learn something new every day.

The thing is though, all the other non accessory characters are recorded VA which means that its not using the in game speech engine. And its not like the story bits will has the accessory talking all the time too, as seen with the demo its more you interacting with the other human characters in the game.

I had not looked up the information initially. But was wondering about if the data would transfer over, to give folks a bit more incentive to spend time with the demo itself. Instead of having to start over, but then though about how the game too has the head to head mode, which without the infrastructure mode wont be in from the start, but wonder if they didnt want the demo data to be transferred to prevent some folks for having a larger advantage over others. Actually wait scrap that thought, its more has to do with the ranking system most likely for the regions. Want everyone to start on an even playing field from the start so the rankings dont get messed up I suppose?

Well, in the first place, a small file size doesn't always correlate to lesser content. GTA5's install/download size is smaller than Uncharted 3 or TLoU.
Besides, I cannot imagine Sony shipping FW with less content than Soul Sacrifice. FW is clearly a much bigger investment and bet as a Vita game compared to SS.

Apparently FW's list of trophies are up now on psnprofile and is in Japanese, spoiler of course, but maybe we can tell how much content it will have by looking at the trophies list?

Shift posted about XI and Freedom Wars:
http://commu.jp.playstation.com/blog/details/20140624_xi_toro.html
There's an official Propakun twitter account - https://twitter.com/Propakun
Saw this article last night about XI and hoped it meant we'd have a sequel/new XI multiplayer game for Vita or PS4 which would be so much fun... but still, interesting article/pictures.
BTW, back when I was out of town for a con, I sent a tweet asking about the walk speed and this was the response - https://twitter.com/Nikoro/status/480127598605778945

I know, that why I wrote, maybe
, but at the very least it can tell us what we can expected to appear/collect in the game right?warningjab

Yeah I assume so, since they would possibly be resetting rankings so everyone starts from zero again. Otherwise that or the beta servers and rankings are a separate entity from the retail release.
I'd be fine with the same amount of content - didn't really have a problem with it in the original SS and enjoyed good 80 or more hours of it. With FW being a new IP and all that, so you can't expect as many enemy types as in MH3/4, that's just unrealistic.

OT looks damn good!
Seems like some people have already got their hands on the game. Someone is streaming it on Nico Nico right now (early stage after demo mission - not sure if I should link or not). Game looks sexy though. Can't come soon enough to this side of the world. Eagerly awaiting you guys' impressions

Go right ahead and link away, as am sure there are folks on the fence who would want to see any sort of gameplay footage from the full version. As long as you warn folks that potential spoilers etc, should be all good.
As dont believe there is any GAF rules against early footage and this is just literally 1 day early footage anyways lol.mack_a_tsar

Will get this when there's Asian-English version (hopefully)
Heard you can customize the accessories' personality/speech style? Awesome, how many are there?

Seems like the stream is still going. Theyre a lot further than yesterday, so SPOILERS GALORE. Tread carefully.
Its a NicoNico community stream. Youd need an account (free) plus you have to join the community the video is being streamed under. 30 minutes per session, so Im Linking the streamers broadcast history rather than the direct link to the current stream (cos it expires soon).
Again - potential SPOILERS:

Yeah just a short time to go now! My copy has been shipped. Should arrive tomorrow morning. Ill be playing it a ton tomorrow night after work. Sadly my vita gets sent to Sony for repairs on Friday so I won't be able to play for a while after that which is a shame. But at least ill get some time with it tomorrow.
You know you're in the right place when everyone around you is rocking anime or megaten avatars. lol
So is ad-hoc going to be available from the go? We're just waiting for online, 8-player PvP support to be patched in at a later date?
Here's hoping that Japan Studio has got a winner here! They did a good job with Soul Sacrifice - don't let us down!
Excellent! :3

from the graphics alone and detail put into the character models plus art style this game id say has a better chance of outperforming SS.

I bet this game has had a lot of DLC planned for it.

the other portion of the content still isnt out the infrastructure related modes. on top of that lots if constant free updates is what i would imagine similar to gid eater and even soul sacrifice. monster hunter had free dlc also

About pre-loads am not sure when it would go active? As never had done one myself, but Im pretty sure they start digital sales the same time that stores generally open. To prevent the stores from complaining and such.

I think it looks a lot more (visually) appealing than SS. Even though SS is a great game, I think it looked too grotesque for its own good.
I would say a bigger opening than SS is a lock. The only weird decision was not to create a bundle for it, like they did with SS.
I hope someone can prove me wrong but I haven't seen any characters in this game that aren't non white, non Asian. I'm pretty disappointed. I really hate playing games with character customization that only have white skin colors.
Like I said, I hope someone proves me wrong though.

If you bothered to actually pay attention to the OT or reading through this topic, you've already been proven wrong.
