Two, three people total.How many others were there?
It's especially ridiculous because the bonus objective for the mission is not getting damaged by the gas.

In BB, there's the option to enable gyro for the B configuration.A combination of both schemes (gyro + nub) and customizable buttons would have totally saved it, but for some reason Nintendo don't want us to do that.
The posts I see on the first page seem to confirm that NA and EU can play together, but in my case I'm specifically wondering about region locked multiplayer between NA and Japan. I had already assumed that just like Monster Hunter, FF Explorers and Fantasy Life that NA and EU would be able to play together, but in those games we can't play with Japan. I really want to play this with my friend but she has a Japanese 3DS so that's why I'm waiting for that to be confirmed.
A super missile takes out most of the first boss's health, all of it soloing with Lone Wolf. You don't really level up, though you do gain more weight capacity at certain points, and having better mods helps.Played the first mission with a party of three (one guy disconnected). No idea what the fuck was going as these guys seemed to already played the thing. The boss went down way too fast, making me think these guys were higher level?

I went down to explore the area, first time landed on the jump pad, second landed in the area. Got damaged, got out of there.Two, three people total.

I can assure you that this guy was much worse than that. I revived him something like four times.I went down to explore the area, first time landed on the jump pad, second landed in the area. Got damaged, got out of there.
Checked out the bonus criteria. Woops.
It gets significantly more difficult. Mission 14 particularly seems to be a roadblock for people judging by the number of postings I see.I see. I noticed the guy I was playing with had "57", which seems to be the amount of medals(?) you get at the end of missions.
Although even within the first three missions I see some cool ideas, it's not really clicking for me. I don't like the controls (to be honest, I never cared for Metroid Prime's mechanics), especially on the 3DS, and playing with strangers ended up making for a breakneck pace where I had no idea what's going on. Maybe it was just the party was with. Seems a bit too easy too, but that may just be because of it being early on and, again, who I was playing with.
The controls took me a bit of getting used to. I like Prime's mechanics though, particularly the side dashing, and the fine aiming with the gyro only makes it better IMO. It might be hard for you to like it, but maybe you'd have a better time just playing solo at your own pace. That's what I've been doing for new missions, then I go back and speed run them later to try to get all the medals.I see.

Yeah. I've never had a mod break for dying, but I've had two break from quitting.It's because they're designed to break when you die as well, thus they don't want you circumventing that.
On the subject, mods seem to break less if you die as opposed to quitting.
God damn people are getting competitive as shit now.
Do you get anything for doing the best in a mission or something?
You get first choice in mods. Not exactly huge.Do you get anything for doing the best in a mission or something?

Though it is in everyone's interest for people to score highly, since everyone's scores are pooled into the final score that determines how many medals you get.
Wait, you can change your mods at the inventory screen? Damn, never realized that.My biggest peeve is people who have no self control when it comes to inventory. I'm replaying mission 5 or some shit and people use twice boosted inventories to gobble up everything but 2 missle packs and a heal tank while I'm tuning my mods.
How many single player missions are there?
There's no explicit solo missions, but I think it's about 60 total missions. You can play the entire game solo with some modifiers and AI assistance.
60? I think you're way off.
Playing solo. How do I add A.I. drones? Cannot figure it out.
It gets better.I've got this game. I played the first mission online. I hate it.

There areAll I have to say is M07: Cauldron while playing solo... Fuuuuuuuuck. I don't remember prior Metroid Prime games havinginsta-death moments in boss fights.
It gets better.
There arein that fight? I didn't notice any.insta-death moments
Ugh if true.
That really sucks. It's a really long boss fight too.Yeah, during the second phase after the two smaller "fish" merge together, I was too close when it crawled up onto the edge of the stage and it swallowed me.
Yeah. I retried it with randoms online a little while ago and completely crushed it without much trouble.That really sucks. It's a really long boss fight too.
Here's a pro-tip from an expert player: Spam "Check your MODS" in the lobby constantly to make new friends.

I just realized what vibe I was getting from this game. It feels (aesthetically and a little mechanically) like Helldivers. The rather limited special ammo setup, the heaviness of movement and the mods really give me a feeling of playing a first person Helldivers.
Edit: How busy does the online community feel? Is it difficult to get a full group of randoms?
Yes, I unlocked some skins while playing alone, since my wifi sucks.I love how the free BlastBall download looks and controls... quite fun all on its own I must say. Is there stuff you can unlock if you keep playing that alone? Skins at least?
So, a friend of mine bought the game and told me the visuals are much better on screen than in all those youtube videos. He also told me that the soundtrack is really good and that the sound design is great and worth playing with headphones. He also mentioned he's having a LOT of fun in co-op as long as you find the right guys.
Can someone confirm the above? I'm not sure of I should pick it up...
Besides the above, I'm only concerned about the missions and objectives being distinct enough as I love diversity and not the same plain scenarios here and there.
It's generally the case for 3DS games, sometimes shockingly so.a friend of mine bought the game and told me the visuals are much better on screen than in all those youtube videos
