I did sort of grow up with the series, though Gundam Wing was my first. I would have seen all of the original series if Cartoon Network hadn't dropped it because of September 11th. :\

It's A Tier for a reason. Far from bad and is actually a very good unit in the overall scheme of things as its speed and side melee help get in. Ball of doom is great as well when both players are applying pressure to a single unit. I'm sure Shouta would have a better explanation, lol.
Here's a great set of matches with Susanoo online: http://www.twitch.tv/nufa/b/301334499
Yup, that mode was what it used to go into Quantum Burst when linking with the ELS. Haven't seen anybody really use it when playing as QANT.
Like I said before the talent bamco poached from Capcom are all who mattered.

Can't complain there. The man has definitely had his hand in making some of my favorite fighting games ever.

You can use it in a combo, as I recall, and as a way of landing faster. If you do it before you run out of boost in mid-air, it'll bring you down faster than you would from normally falling.
Low cost, melee, most of Cherudim's attacks, and a frontal shield. It's primary weapon also is a recharge style and he has a Charge Shot as well. Cherudim's A recharges after you do both shots but it's an instant beam whereas Dynames still travels.
Cherudim's A shot does a lot of damage 2 of them may be equivalent to the crouch shot.
A shot gives him a power boost for the next attack and changes some moves as I recall. For example, doing that then using his Chakram causes the chakram to hit a few times instead of just once. Suicide is useless as I recal.
Chakram and Tri-Punisher are used to get in for melee. The Chakram can be shot without stoping to and it's a fast charge, Ball of Doom stuns them long enough for you to melee if you're in close (it's also big). If you watch some match vids of Susanoo, you'll see.
It's largely close range unit and OO raiser is a very good close range shooting unit. Raiser mode has a Charge Shot A that's a gerobi (the big beam attacks that are solid) that you can use while moving, most require you to stop to shoot it.
Make the enemies run away from them and waste boost then tag them with the Sniper Rifle. You can also set the Bits around you so you can use them against someone charging at you.
Transformation gives Quanta more shooting options. Unlimited use of the Sword Bits, same BR, and the addition of the Harute and Zabanya summons. It also restores HP when you use it which is good for when you're low on life.
Raphael is really good, use the dash to position it and you can fire its BR to try and nab folks from multiple angles. You can also force it close to someone and use its Gerobi beam for big damage. It takes a bit of getting used to though and you need to be able to boost dash/dodge very well most of the time. For reference, I have aout 30-35 wins out of my 150-160 with Raphael Gundam, I think.
If we play online against the AI, I can show you some stuff. When I have time anyway.

So far I'm digging Zeta, Crossbone X-1 and Unicorn. Still suck online, but the game is a lot of fun.
Re: Custom Soundtracks
I have a few tracks from the Gundam 30th Anniversary Symphony album on my list. Recommend you guys check the rest of 'em out too!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yXsokrngCBg
There's a 20th anniversary one too, but those were more re-arranged BGMs and it's not quite as good. I only have the version of 0080's theme song (this is an excerpt of the 6-minute album version that goes into another song) from that album there. I have a version of 'Proof of the Strongest ~ King of Hearts' that was performed live at the composer's 20th anniversary concert which is pretty cool. Better than the version of the same song on Gundam's 20th anniversary, and I think I prefer the brass in this version to the guitar in the original. Couldn't find a YouTube version of it though.
For Turn A, which was already all orchestral, I'm between Second Advent and Final Shore. Haven't quite fleshed out the rest of my list yet, besides Gackt stuff and Beyond the Time.

Welp, does that mean I need to make a Hong Kong account then? And does that mean the DLC is purchased via HK store then? Poop.

Hail, peons, for I have come as ambassador from the great and bountiful Blueberry Butt Explosion
Yep. Which is easy to do, though. I made one just for the Hi-nu DLC code.
Why is the CPU SO HARD
When me and distantmantra played together against 2 cpu they always win even though we're not that bad! Even when I'm playing 1p w/cpu against 2cpu while waiting in online mode the matches are close but the cpu always seems to win
Oh well, good matches distantmantra! I think I'm getting decent with Dynamos and prefer him to Cherubim mainly just due to the cost difference which seems to throw the match often. I like playing as Exia but goddamn he feels fragile. And RX-78 is always fun to use

The CPU is insane unless they're set to easy. It's ridiculous. can you even turn the CPU to easy on Online Match?

Good games, man! I'd play longer but I have to get up early for work.
Exia is really fragle. The Exia Repair mode at the end is nice, though.
Crossbone X-1 is my favorite so far. I need to learn him a lot better than I currently do, but he feels "right." Nice mix of ranged and melee attacks.

I wonder if that's not possible to prevent trophy boosting?

Deathscythe seems way too powerful for 1500.
No sale it is! j/k
Sandrock Custom and Nataku are relegated to assists for Yang and Yun respectively.

That's because he's 2500
That makes more sense, I must have misread the rating at the VS. screen.

Sandrock is a horrible gundam anyway. It even sucks in SRW.

AI isn't very hard, most of the time. I'd say once you get a bit better, you should be able to do it with ease or even 2v1 at times. I almost never lose to the AI unless I'm dicking around or tired.
You can. Set your AI partner to Avoid (回避
and they'll just run. You can do 1v1 if both players do so. We do it in the arcade on shuffle machines when there's only two people and we have to fight each other. Run away or Extreme Burst and out-Rainbow Step him. It's safer to instantly Step cancel or Boost Dash away than to try and fight him again.
2500, teehee. He's strong but has certain problems. Hyperjammer and the shield are somewhat useless at times. The invisibility doesn't last very long like Next does and the shield's melee is useless making it only good for running away. On the other hand, DSH's combos are buff and the Altron assist is very very nice. Throwing Taurus' is fun too.
Your face sucks!
Delivering a finishing blow to a good online player using a 3000cost unit with ACGUY melee combo in burst mode is
I reaaaaaaaally like Quanta. Been messing around with him for the last hour. I hadn't noticed in practice mode that if you press away and bit/funnel it turns them into a giant sword which gives a better shot and GIANT SLASHING POWER. But really, the key is that transformation mode. Once I get into that, spamming super lockon movie laser, super hallelujah bombs, throwing bit swords at them from a distance, and then teleporting into super slash combo just recks enemies up. All the attacks are really high damage and they recharge pretty quick.
Still I'm afraid to use 3000 or 2500 cost units online because I'm new to the game and everyone else in the room has like 300 wins and that means I'm gonna be the first to die each time and I don't want to cost my team 3000/2500 and lose the match Where are the NEWBIE ROOMS online :| Every room I go into has people with 200-600 matches played already.

If you're still playing when I get home from work and dinner, I can play with you against the AI if you want. I can give ya pointers on various things.

YesAsia folk, check you emails... my order finally shipped!!!
I think my weakest area is the wakeup game if you knock them down with a melee hit and are right next to them. I find dashing away isn't fast enough to clear some room if they get right up and come for me. Which is why I'm sticking more to mid-range/long-range characters at this point.
Also playing good Japanese players who are using Susano is already annoying. They rush you so hard and out-step combo all your combos; if you're a mid/long range char and they get in you are super screwed as they melee you to death and chakram stun you as you try to run. I see why he's a top-tier unit. Not very fun to play against!

Should be Beam Rifle.

Yup, and BZ is bazooka. So whenever you see stuff like BRc or BZc, that means Beam Rifle/Bazooka cancel. CSa and CSb refer the button you hold to charge.

Nice! We should definitely do some EU nights with Coxy and Wazzim when they get theirs.

Nice, nice. When I get my copy, I'll try to set up the games. It's been hard looking out the window of the office I'm working at right now and watching the mail vans come by and not drop off anything here. =(
As for vids, I've been watching nufa's twitch.tv page: http://www.twitch.tv/nufa He's pretty damn good with Dynames, Susanoo, and X-2 (who I'd like as one of my mains).

A bit more info regarding the DLC stuff from this page thanks to gundam-versus.com: http://www.b.bngi-channel.jp/gdexvs/download.html
1. The new mobile suits will be playable via paid charges
2. The new mobile suits will be participating as enemy units
3. Ranked Match mode of Network battle and New mission will be added via free charges
I had thought Ranked was already in, tbh. Aside from that, nothing that we didn't know previously.
