>Does EDF 5 do away with the fucking garbage armor farming?
Kinda. Now you get armour and weapons for all classes at the end of every missions, not just as the class you're playing as. Also, you still get a small portion of armour and weapons should you fail a mission.

>Iron rain looks really good
yikes

>love EDF4.1
>put over 100hrs on it
>want to play it again
>still have to complete on hardest and that last difficulty whichs name I just forgot now
>nobody is playing the missions I need to play online
>solo its tiresome as fuck because I dont have proper weapons or support
maaaaaaan this is annoying.
I played through the game on very hard and it as so much fun but this is just a slog

I've only played insect armaggedon and had a pretty good time with that, are the other games similar to it?

Hardest and inferno. Same here user, I've done missions 1-50 but its all thats hosted or missions at 90 and upwards, real pain in the ass

Never played these games before. How do I start with my pc?

i really hope iron rain isn't shit. blazer and slade ma10 make me feel like a real imperial guardsman doing the emperor's good deeds

4.1 and Insect Armageddon are both on Steam, but 4.1 is the one you want to buy

Are you quite literally retarded? How do you manage to stumble upon a board for videogames yet you can't make the correlation that games titled "EARTH DEFENCE FORCE" with the same trooper and bugs on it are not part of the series. Surely Armageddon must be the only one of it's kind

ranger. i know it's basic, but it's what i'm good at. shotguns, rifles, flamers, a new lasgun, the beloved acid gun. what's not to love? and if i'm feeling like a real good guy i can go in like a medic even if ar is better for that. they have more important things to do though, so my healing bombs will do.

Ok but explain why you fight giant anime girls in the other games but none in insect armaggedon smart guy

This is your Final Boss for tonight. Say something nice about him.

Who is this cutie?

Does 5 still have offline and online mission progress separate?

I got 4.1 in the humble bundle thing and this game is dope. It feels really satifying how these huge enemies are pushed back by your weapons, like it looks janky when you shoot up a hector but it's super useful and I feel like no other modern game would make that design decision.

>try out ranger, air raider and wing diver

Wpuld you join EDF or XCom? Why?

If the opposing forces correspond the ones in their respective titles, I'd rather join XCom as there would be a much higher chance of survival.

Fencer, the weapon combinations and utility are great. He's really fun to play once you get it down.

5 has the best fucking lines
>Don’t worry, soldiers make jokes like this all the time.
>Take that you terrorist!

>tfw EDF Xcom crossover game never ever
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Ask solomon to play EDF. Maybe he'll get crazy ideas.

Fencer because going fast

Use boost jumps dingus, Fencer is way more mobile than Wing Diver could ever hope to be
