Took about 18 hours to get my points cards from Solaris, well under the 24 hours they state it will take on their site.

so is the play asia 21 days accurate or will I get it quickly ?
What shipping do you use?
This is pretty accurate - It can take as much as that or more. It really depends when they ship it and where it goes for processing.
Going to be online this weekend - played a bit today offline.

Yeah.. admittedly I missed some details and forgot to include my neogaf name and other details... I was tired last night when I ordered it -_-
But! I am in the middle of downloading the Premium G version, so hopefully it'll be done by the morning

yea it actually just shipped
Is buying this game through Japanese PSN difficult. I want to play this game and can't decide whether to make a JPN PSN account or to just order it from Play-Asia.
Yes, the fps halves everytime you add another screen. Watching a replay with 4x screens really felt lower than 20fps.

Yup, was planning on making a separate banner for it. Will do later, on top of updating a couple things in the game.
You could always replace it in the custom BGM, but no skip track button. Or stop playing with Wing EW suits. :O
Yarp, from what I've played with my gf, sub-30 on average fo sho. Playable for putzing around in, but meh.

Just like the last game...? You can unlock Johnny and Lacus via free DLC.
I thought there are unlockable units from exvs, looks like I remembered it wrongly. I did buy DLC units for exvs, that makes almost all units in fb a déjà vu to me
Worse than EXVS? Or comparable to it?
I was thinking of getting this game but had to choose between this and Sengoku Basara 4. I'm still curious to find out how this Gundam game plays and feels but from what i've seen on youtube it looks hardcore as fuck.
Soooo..
As someone who enjoy's importing games, does not like hardcore fighting games, but does love mecha's and gundam... should i get this game or wait/import the latest gundam musou game?

My est. delivery got bumped from Thursday to Tomorrow.
*rocks back and forth* Please, please, please!
And dang, unrelated but I had the MG Hi-Nu kit on order at AmiAmi, but it was backordered, so I added the backordered wet apply decals to the order... Then the kit came back in stock, but the decals didn't, now the kit is backordered again @_@
Also damn about the local split-screen fps. Having not played a split-screen game in ages, I forgot that happens. Guess I'll have to show my friend (aside from the videos I've been linking him) how it plays normal as well when I get mine, in hopes that I can persuade him to one day pick this up.

For someone who doesn't like fighting games and would prefer a stronger single player experience, you would probably enjoy Gundam Musou more.

If you're anything like me you'll love the heck out of this game. I mean, I play fighting games but I'm not particularly good at them and don't really feel like learning them as well. Full Boost however instantly bit its fangs into me and won't let go.
But I really dislike musou games. I think if you join us in multiplayer you'll have a ton of fun.
Get Extreme VS,game isn't really that hard to grasp. There are no long combos or difficult mechanics to grasp, just quick reflexes, experience and clever playing. Once you get a hold of it you'll understand.

There's a fair amount of frame rate drops when things get busy. We play a lot of split screen here and everyone says it's slightly worse than EXVS.

Not confirmed quite yet, but next DLC should apparently show up on 2/19 with the GN-X III, Titan's MkII, and Luna Impulse.
I know the MkII is 1000, what's the cost of the other units?

1000 GN-X, 2000 Luna Impulse
It took me a while, but I've finally cleared all the offline missions on all difficulty levels! Now to do the same for the rest of the arcade routes and offline missions...
I've also started playing Strike Noir, which is surprisingly awesome. Dem two guns, pulling an enemy to you and all the other shenanigans.

I just use Ground from NCSX. Like I said, I'm a state over from NY so it comes quick.
I live in Ohio and I often get NCS ground stuff the next day.

Strike Yun Fat is indeed good. Learn to space out all of its command flips and swings, and you will never be hit.
At least someone else will have to wait, not just me. Would be pretty funny if I got my package before you ;p

There aren't any unlockable units. There weren't any in EXVS either so you get the full cast right away, lol. It's a big ass cast though. The arcade version had time-released units but those are all included in this.
Got my Premium G version and installed last night, started going through Mission mode too. No visual map is terrible but the missions seem up to par as always. They also have difficulty settings for each map which is nice. It's weird they have you unlock skills by defeating certain difficulties on a spread of maps though.
It's kind of stupid that you can't reset your unit's skill layout apparently. You have a max of level 100 (each skill has a max of level 10) so you can max your unit out ridiculously quick.
The higher difficulty mission in online mode with a cpu parter are incredibly annoying becuase the AI sucks so much (even when using one of your leveled suits). I still have 2 skills left to unlock due to that
EDIT: Shouta, there is a Level "infinity" that allows to max everything, and gets unlocked after you get to MAX level and have the figure for the suit

We're supposed to get some Maxi Boost suits as dlc down the road right?
Also what are some good youtube/nico channels to watch some vids?
The only one I know of is A-cho.

Ah, that explains it. Good thing I spent that sleepy hour getting Acquired SP up last night then.

It's the final arcade version and Wing Zero is still pretty beast.
Really? I thought he got hit with nerfs in the final build. Thanks for the info donkey.

You're right, it DID get hit with nerfs throughout the patches following its arcade unlock. The Banshee underwent the same treatment, if I recall, and yet, both are still at the top of their respective classes.
Yikes. At least it's playable, but man I'm gonna get a lot of complaining from one of my "master race" friends.
