Just channeling MadConfused.

Whoa hey there, how did I get dragged into this now.

 

[Out_Of_Ammo]

Would you guys recommend this game to someone who knows absolutely nothing about Gundam? I've seen this game mentioned a lot and everyone seems to love it. I've watched some videos and the gameplay looks very fun, but I'm afraid I'll lose interest in it if I don't know the backstory (especially since the game's in Japanese).

 

[Haly]

Although it's definitely a fanservice-y game, the gameplay stands on its own merits and doesn't really hinge on the Gundam aesthetic. If you like fighting games with non-traditional systems then you will probably enjoy EXVS.

And hey who knows, you might get into Gundam from EXVS!

Yeah, there's actually a lot of people who aren't into Gundam that play this game. Just know that the combat designers from SF III third strike and MVC2 worked on the gameplay design of EXVS.

 

[ponpo]

I know nothing about Gundam and like the game a lot. I like mechs though ~

Also GP03 is okay. Ended up getting the other DLC pack though I think I only enjoy The O from all of them.

How can you not like Arche? Fangu Fangu Fangu Fangu!

 

[Kincaido]

Freedom is best!

 

[ponpo]

Arche is pretty cool I guess just don't like actually using it. And Freedom I had already.

Thanks for the answers, I guess I'll try it out if I can find it online for cheap. Looks like a great co-op game. Maybe I'll check out Gundam first, although I'm not really into giant robot anime.

Cross post from "OT2," lol.

So it seems like a 2ch member and a Chinese guy found coding for the rest of the EXVS DLC suits. It's pretty much a partial version of the pic that got released including the Zaku III. A GameFAQs member compiled the sources in this topic. Seems like it'll be Strike Noir, Gold Frame, Zaku III, Arios, and there is a blank spot for Age-1.

So Strike Noir and Gold Frame are pretty much confirmed. That's good because finally, some of my favorite mobile suits in Gundam are actually going to be playable here. All I need is the Banshee in FB one day and I'll never actually switch from Strike Noir and Banshee.

And they better offer Age-1 for free, because I'm not going to pay for it. People are better off giving their money to Arios so Allelujah can crawl out of his "the Quatre/Gundam Sandrock of the 00 team" infamy.

Yay!

 

[ponpo]

Cool, Strike Noir is fun. Is Arios in FB? Don't know enough about Gundam to know if I recognize that suit or not , _ ,

Arios was going to be in FB according to the FB main page...

All those units will be in vanilla aside from Rozen Zulu and Wing Zero.

If you pray hard enough, maybe AGE-1 will evolve into Wing Zero!

 

[Jubern]

Believe in the power of the AGE system !

ahahah

Yay!

Awesome, love me some Strike Noir

Having all this DLC a year later does make me wonder if we'll end up getting FB in 2014 rather than 2013...

Thx. I'll be watching over you guys.

Great session tonight with a friend.
I'm barely capable of putting the guard on now.

1 year and this game is still pretty awesome.

 

[Atcha]

Is anyone available ? o/

 

[deim0s]

Got the game (Asian, The Best ver). Are the DLCs available at the JP or HK store and region free?

I know the JP DLC will work with the Asian Ver., but the DLC is available on both stores. Whatever is easier for you to get really.

New list from the third.

 

[donkey show]

New tier list from the 20th with Arios and Strike Noir. I'm guessing Arios is low because of its damage output and health.

[AZUMIKE]

Recently purchased this game. Such a gem. The quality and representation of the Gundams is much appreciated!

 

[Celestial]

Sorry for bumping this thread guys but is anyone in here still playing the game?It is one of my favorites PS3 games and i am 90 hours in the game.I'am missing 2 trophies for the platinum hope to get them soon!

 

[Shouta]

A few folks are still playing fairly regularly. I'm sort of in hibernation at the moment, lol.

 

[ponpo]

Someone ask enron to post the char breakdancing gif I linked in IRC this morning.

 

[Enron]

I keep hearing about all these new players, but yet none of them ever show up in the IRC :<

You are just looking for new people to pick on.

Im not exactly in a position to pick on anyone

I didnt know there was an IRC room!Will check it out this afternoon.I also put my name in the Gundam-GAF PSN Community List.

 

[AZUMIKE]

Question...how does IRC work?? I'm always hearing about this, but I never quite understood the basics. Is it a chat room?

Just use the webclient here: http://client01.chat.mibbit.com/

From there on the dropdown menu, select Esper. In the nickname section, obviously whatever you want to be known as. And for the room, type in #gafgundam.

It's basically a chatroom, but that should get you started!

Ha, thanks!
That makes things much easier to me because I never understood how that stupid IRC works and never saves my parameters (server, room, nickname...) which is irretating and all but convenient.

Really looking forward to Unicorn Episode 6 subbed...

 

[Bombless]

So, thanks to this thread I discovered this gem. This game is pretty much everything I've ever wanted in a mecha game....and choke full of Gundam goodness.

Having only seen Seed and Seed Destiny it sure makes me want to check other series out, some of them Gundams seem pretty whack hah!

Question about the DLCs : What do you think of them? Also I guess I'll need a Japanese PSN account to buy them?

I think the DLC suits are all quite good. There's a nice mix of unit types, and they're all pretty fun to mess around with.

Also I guess I'll need a Japanese PSN account to buy them?

You can use either a TW/HK PSN account or a Japanese PSN account; most people would recommend making a Japanese PSN account because it's easier to buy points for that storefront. Also, keep in mind that DLC bought from both of these storefronts will work with either version of the game.

 

[Soulhouf]

Hi-Nu Gundam is still free and is more than worth it.
Of course you'll need a Japanese PSN account, yes.

 

[X05]

This reminded me that I still haven't bought the latest suits... and that I haven't played online since forever...

 

[Bombless]

Got Hi-Nu Gundam....and Goddamn it kicks major ass.

 

[distantmantra]

These bumps always make me think we're getting more DLC.

Sigh.

 

[X05]

Well, not sure anyone was expecting a second wave of DLC, so who knows...

Speaking of DLC, I got almost all of the suits yesterday (had only bought Freedom and Throne previously), really liked a few of them like the Blue Destiny and Strike Noir, and the Arios seems pretty terrible.
Also, the Gold Frame has a rating of 2 stars :lol (but only 2 votes, and seemed like a fun unit to me).

 

[Shouta]

Arios is pretty nice beam spam.

 

[Enron]

Arios is god-tier. If you think it's terrible, you are doing it wrong.
