>tfw no alpha team with passion and camaraderie

Micro penis class, Ranger is for true chads that ride into battle on their steel steeds

why is fencer the best class?

I'm not exactly sure, but I have pretty high armor because I keep joining Yea Forums lobbies and playing the first 20 missions over and over again

Powered exoskeletons, big silly weapons and rocket boosters are a wonderful combination

Honestly, Fencer and Air Raider should be best bros. Wing Divers are sluts and Rangers just want to ride a motorcycles.

>bugs literally couldn't invade China because of the smog

Is it me or am I finding displeasure I. The classes? Air Raider is ok but when the monsters come close he folds. Lots of his vehicles suck and get jobbed easily by Pepe's. Plus the time it gets them there. Only good ones are the Titan and Crawlers for caves. Heli's suck ass.
Wing diver for me just doesn't have much punch. Not sure what's wrong. But I see other wing divers kill monsters easy but mines has shitty weapons with shitty range.
Fencer is too slow but I haven't played much of them. Ranger I felt like wont pack much punch and is slow.
What do I do? I had a decent wing diver weapon but can't find it anymore. Donno where it went. It was a 12 shot charged.

In his defense, base Fencer IS too slow. Sandlot removing the speed from his base kit and putting it into his extras means the class is absolutely crippled until you get the boost cells you need. Granted its better for the class as a whole thanks to no longer being forced to take a shield + melee, but it's still a noticeable issue early on.

>Not using your motorcycle to blow up dropships

Its even worse when you have high max HP and they have minimum HP
Ressing always costs you half of your current HP, even if that's more than their max HP

>pw not rage
Fuck off with this.

When they die they release microbes that purify the air and soil.

This is the reason why the ayys didn't simply glass Earth in the first place.

you should also mention what mission you're doing

are you saying that the ayys are the space Greenpeace?

Strongest fencer weapon early-game?

Wing diver can dab on all the seething incels by going ontop of buildings

Do you need any other reason?

You need higher level parts for more consecutive dashes/jumps.

Early game is suffering.

Fencer can too with multiple jumps

>wing diver
Did you get Raijin and start shitting on everyone?

WD can do it by pressing a button

Game crashed, and then had to reinstall on steam. Though it didn't seem like it had to do a full reinstall.

Anyways, it's back up. I'll give it 10 minutes before going

>What it was billed as: a system to reward players for dupes so they didn't feel disappointed when they finished a level and didn't get anything to

Are ants and hornets and stuff like that not a thing on earth in the EDF universe or is the joke that soldiers are too stupid to know anything about them?

Education is none existent and scientists are vatgrown for EDF's RND division

>Wing Diver flies up on top of a building to snipe

Anyone else feel like the god damn Fist of the North star when using the Jackhammer?

Jesus, does 90% of this board just buttfuck fencer and not play any other class because that’s what it seems like

Hows 5 compared to 4.1?

So are weapon/ammo crates you pick up local or are they shared with everyone else?

I just used the satellite blaster on her to kill her in 10 seconds

Most fun class. Animation cancelling to go fast while dropping unholy amounts of firepower is fun
Also, you aren't playing a woman, which is gay.

It took 5 months for EDF to start shooting inside the hatch of a dropship, and it was some random soldier's idea.

There's only competent scientist and he carries the entirety of the EDF along with the MC

Is single player weapon progress carried over to mp?

Finished ranger on hard and started doing hardest. Finished all prologue missions on hard for all classes. It's already getting boring. How do i make it as fun as it used to be?

Bought this yesterday on Yea Forums's recommendation.
I love the cheesy sci-fi dialogue, and gunning down hundreds of giant ants while spamming the singing emote is funny as shit. I think I like this game.

Died on the first mission with the ufo enemies, mission 5 I think. Just got swarmed in close range and died. Fuck.

Yes, it does, armor too.

Blasthole spears and Dexter shotgun

oh dear god, no, not at all. wait till you get to mission 107, though. many laughs were had

Only thing not carried are completions I think

What class are you playing? That mission gave my bros and I a bad time on hard. Couldn't use my missiles as ranger because they kept flying too close and I ended up blowing myself up.

maybe stop playing the same game 12 hours a day?

Skip the prologue.

Suck a dick it’s been out for three days

The first mission with drones is a pretty harsh difficulty spike

The Wingdivers don't "bully" her in the shower after the fight

I wish i could but i have nothing else to do during summer.

I was using Ranger. Replaying the earlier missions with Fencer to see if that helps a bit.

Had to quit less than 20 missions in
Dont know who thought it would be okay to make me violently blow off the limbs of aliens that look exactly like humans and have blood go everywhere. Nearly threw up

I just want an edf general

shared I think

I dont know shit about Halo. Besides any discussion about how MC would do in any situation would be "His luck gets him through everything and makes him unkillable XD"

I just went on normal for that one. I feel they toned down normal compared to 4.1. Enemies barely attack you.

Try the game "Iron Brigade" it's dirt cheap and it's about defeating wave of monsters too.

>tfw fighting the big armored ayys as wing diver
It's ok, I didn't want to fly anyway

>I was using Ranger
I've used shotgun and rocket launcher on that one, didn't have much problem.

Shotguns are the best I agree but are snipers the true combo weapon? Grenades just seem to fly all over the place and my rocket launcher doesn’t seem to hit very hard

Well it's the only one that's active so what choice do you have if you want to play multiplayer?

People miss the dialogue in 4.1. That's about all you're missing.

It's for the times you need to hit tall deroys. Yes

I got 4.1 cheap some time ago, should I just skip it and go straight to 5 or should I actually play it beforehand?

What's the best way to upgrade my Fencer's items? (the ones that give more dashes and jumps)

yeah absolutely, I'm on mission 34 Hard right now and I use one of the slaughter LS's with a full upgrade MFF 50 LS and it's a 5 shot 150dmg 2.0 second reload sniper

The shotgun can one shot frogs in the head up close and the sniper is a one shot kill on anything below frog level and above it it pulls them apart. I haven't tried any of the other snipers, but judging from the general opinion they're probably awful.

The only time i switch off the sniper is for the Minion Buster (blaster?) Burst, the rocket AR, because it kills the shit out of everything

Gimme a quick rundown on Air Raiders lads, my friends want me to get this and I hear I can do bombing runs with them?

Pray to RNG and grind the levels that dropped it

I just can’t bring myself to shoot them

Its what they were made for. A vast majority of Air Raider's weapons are signal devices to coordinate bombing runs, artillery strikes, missiles and orbital lasers.

The remainder of an AR's kit is full of various support tools and vehicles, including house-sized tanks and building-sized giant robots.

You call them in.

If one low level mission drops those, can I farm this level until a reach maximum item level? Or is there a cap this specific for this mission?

>Anything in particular I should look out for to use/avoid?
Yeah limpets unless youre forced to use them for underground

Limpet guns that aren’t limpet snipers
Most early game vehicles handle like complete arse FYI

Shit I forgot to add some AR advice.
Naegling is a bad choice of vehicle for mission without flying faggots, you'll probably have better luck with a Nyx or Grape. Also switch out your Limpdick gun for a bombing run or spritefall. The neutralize cannon also sucks fat dick replace it with a bombing run.

How do I maintain my fast as fencer? The downtime while my jumps cooldown kills my momentum.

Blasthole spear

I think you can dash once as you hit the ground, then cancel with a spear attack then jump/dash again.

Getting upgrades for the amount of jumps/dashes.
Also use blast twin spears to extend distance or during dash cooldown

Love my ranger using motorbike, every battle is like a stunt show.

Got it. Limpets suck dick, and the vehicle handling gets better. Anything else I need to know?

try not to call in airstrikes on your teammates

item gatherer and rescuer.

you need a ranger or fencer to babysit you once enemies break trough your mortars and bombng runs... until you get spritefall. After that its all just positioning and raining holy hell on enemies.

other than the carpark in 61 and the waterfall in 87(?) any other cheesable stages for inferno?

Also, is there any way to use the waterfall for any class other than a two shotgun Fencer? Ranger's Shotty is good but the reload dont allow him to lay down a continuing wall of buckshot. Wing Diver gets taken down by her own weapon's feedback from hitting anything at point blank, and Air Raider smply does not have anything that would take out the pillbugs at the door without taking himself out as well.

Did you download an undub or can you switch language in-game? Never checked.

How do you deal with flying enemies as air raider?

Air Strikes and Machine Gun Nyxes

will i ever stop using shotgun, spear, and double bloodstorms as fencer

ZE guns, then Autocannon and Spritefall

>that moment when the entire squad can hear the laugh

Spritefall, put up AA shields between buildings, try to tag them with the cannon shot if they aren't reds.

no, no, yes

the giant insect researcher o’hara is a retard

Strafe runs are hilariously potent against flying enemies, just call them on your location and watch the little shits fall in droves, bulge laser, spritefall, lapis and autocannon/vulcan cannon will also work in a pinch though you need to be more careful/active with them. The big advantage of strafe runs is that you seldom will be damage by them even if the projectiles hit you

>hating on the chad limpet gun
they may not have as high of a fire rate or accuracy as edf 4.1 but god damn do they instagib most trash mobs with a decent explosion radius. its honestly a waste, at least early game, to not carry the m2 with you.

Is it just me or are fencer and wing diver by far the best classes? On inferno they can outrun basically every enemy and have absurd weaponry, rangers and air raiders aren't bad but just seem generally outgunned, and when you combine that with their insane mobility it just doesn't seem worth

literally always bring a limpet gun. who knows where the meme of them being bad came from but they still shit out damage at nearly infinite range.

Fast is relative. Just keep using your dash/boost items with a dash/boost set and you'll keep getting faster. You get faster than Ranger and AR very quickly though.

Man, AR before obtaining Spritefall and after are two completely different classes.

Need different armors for the women ya dumb dumb!

Unfortunately this happens a lot and there seems to be a mouthbreather problem in EDF games in general cause I had this problem in 4.1 too.

at least on hard mode it goes more like
>spread limpet m2 shots into a pack
>ccs the fuck out of them and kills lesser mobs due to the high explosion radius and damage
>delete most packs before they get to you

Use the cannon shot instead of the shotgun, it does more damage AND pierces through targets with no damage falloff

Limpets are bad and you should feel bad

If you're air raider on a teleport ship mission your job should be support and mob clearing
Power boosters help quite a bit
You can also bring a Nix and get mad at missing all your shots cause the guide laser is garbage

not even properly. Online solo scales to the same health and damage as for four players, two people still has enemies do like 2.4 times as much damage, so it's still objectively harder than playing solo offline, it's not until you get 3 that things really balance out.

Ranger = Imperial Guard

Wing Diver = Adepta Sororitas

Air Raider = Adeptus Mechanicus

Maybe it's the dude who had a friend in Marseilles, since he'd be acquainted with how French people look.

Is this better than EDF 2017?

Are absolutely any of the DLC items worth bothering with? Wild Skeleton for Fencer seems useful but that's about it.

I CAN'T BTING MYSELF TO SHOOT THEM

This game worth 40 eurobucks? I had fun with 4.1.

It's leagues ahead of 2017.

God damn the save Europe missions destroy my sides, because you get a guest European commander for some of them

No, you'll get better stuff very quickly
Only the mission packs are worth it

Leagues better. 2025, 4.1, and now 5 have improved over 2017 so much it's frankly not even a fair comparison

I think the system is designed like this

ie even if a star goes up one it won't always increase the number if it's on some goofy number.

How the fuck do you play this game as air raider. Especially in the 6th mission with the saucers. That shit is not possible.

Eh it might be popular but I always stick to Air Raider.

Set up turrets, call in gunship attacks, deploy the flamethrower mech which just melts through the saucers

Go onto some earlier levels and grind out some gear

Some of those are single shot and very strong and can probably one shot one of them

If you're just starting out and don't have a lot, bring turrets, health/atk/def posts, barriers, and any offensive vehicle you have. My primary method is to keep all the other soldiers alive so they can kill shit to you.

Anyone running a non-pirate room?

Seriously what the fuck the game must have a thousand lobbies right now or the game died in 2 days cause nobody is joining my fucking lobby.

Could just be bad translation of the source material. Whoever did the dub clearly just did it as a joke.

Yeah, then why is EDF 4 empty ?

Mission 91 is a purest form of cancer

There's a fuckload of lobbies with passcodes that drown out the public ones.

No, most EDF players are incredibly friendly

I'll join one of these pirate lobbies in like 10 minutes, gonna eat. I'm on mission 20~ or so Hard though, if anyone wants to continue from that point lemme know and I'll just make another lobby.

Compared to EDF 4.1, how do each class fare up (buffed or nerfed) ? And biggest difference ?

Currently on mission 40 on HARD, and so far I've only found the plasma heavy cannon to be good, but even that I can't fully charge without running out of wing energy. Every other weapon seems to do little to no damage, or burn through energy like no tomorrow, or both. The bow and double lance are the only other weapons i've found to be useful but both require close range. Am I missing anything here? I feel fucking useless outside of firing a huge fucking plasma ball and hoping to hit shit and not die due to limited energy

It was hilarious doing them offline after failing like 5 times in a row online.

First time I just grabbed a Lysander.

One of the biggest differences between 4.1 and 5 that i've seen so far is that 5, apart from not letting you do hardest/inferno from the get go (does it unlock both at the same time, or do you have to re-clear all/a specific mission on hardest to unlock inferno?), there also isn't really a good quest to farm weapons from until 62, supposedly.

Sniper rifles have stupid reloading times, homing weapons for the most part are too slow for the missile to reach them in time
I mostly get scrubbed out of existence by their lasers, one alone will take out 75% of my hp if I can dodge some of it.

thanks, that'll make some grinding significantly less suffering.

I do. It's still really easy.

Does this also applies to online? If so I think it's to prevent shitters from hosting hardest/inferno at 200 armor or something.

What difficulty and class are you playing
The KFF 50 family of sniper rifles have a reload time of less than 2 and a half seconds
The NP3-A does like 300 damage per burst and that's only a 3 second reload too

Hard is literally normal mode
Bump it up to Hardest, otherwise you'll have to play through 90% of the game before half the actually challenging enemies start showing up

Armor does not really matter on Inferno, if you get hit you are probably dead regardless of whether you have 200 armour or 2000

Not him, but I'm starting a room. It's mission 16 for now, but it's on hard.

Room name is "Enter Room Name," and the passcode is "passcode".

This room is for good boys who purchased the game only. No pirates allowed!

Just beat that first try with some bros from this thread. Stop playing with shitters and/or git gud

Since the JP voicework is all actually earnest and cheesy as a byproduct of JP acting instead of for comedic effect, it definitely comes of as very similar

Did you not even read my post I've been playing it solo cause nobody would join.

I can't comment on the online, but taking it slow and steady as an air raider with zer gun, ze gun 2a, and a decently strong limpet sniper along with a depth crawler did me fairly well, at least offline on hardmode.

You do realise that playing solo online is the equivilent to playing with a full 4 person group right? You get punished for it, so to speak.

Wing diver has always been about getting right up in someone's business, unloading close range rape and flying off to recharge, and the new dash makes it even more viable than before. You just need to get used to flying dangerously close to shit and shredding them before you get hit.

THIS IS VERY PROBLEMATIC

What difficulty though
If you're playing solo on Normal literally just equip a shotgun and stand underneath the queens, they die in like a clip and a half
Otherwise just chip away at them with high damage weapons like sniper rifles and run away constantly, repeat until ded

Also, don't play solo online, because the multiplayer scaling makes them have the same HP/damage as a four-player lobby

Any not piratefags hosting?
I'd do it but apparently lobbies don't show up if your profile is private

>use minigun strike on armored ayy
>it stunlocks him and shreds his armor
holy shit air raider is fun

Anyone streaming? looks pretty interesting. How many players per battle?

Which pirate lobby is still up and not full?

I usually do, but that wasn't viable at all for mission 40, don't have enough energy reserves to get close enough and reliably deal to the turrets, so just had to slowly snipe things with the Monster.

So what's your gunfu(s) so far? I'm loving the G&M rifles for rangers. As always when it comes to rangers, I can never settle on a 2nd weapon. It's always just a whatever I need for the mission weapon.

open your room back up

Rocket Cannon and 150mm Cannon.
I bring them both when I can

Everyone's super fun in this one
The kind of things you can do as an Inferno Fencer made me flip my shit
Air Raider definitely feels like he got the biggest quality of life upgrade though, airstrikes are ergonomic as shit now

Like half that game is fucking imposssible to play enjoyably as Air Raider because it's either underground, under an earth eater, under a shield bearer, or somehow all fucking three

You have to beat the game once, sorry, my bad
Just think of your Hard runthrough as levelling up your health so you don't melt in a single shot on Hardest

So is it to be assumed that during the five months before the mission where you are finally enrolled that you spent those months going from place to being "lead to safety"?

I'm still to dumb to get movement with fencer in 5. I understand you need to hop and then dash now but I can only do this once and then there's a cool down.

for a level 0 unit the depth crawler is a fucking godsend. the machinegun has insane dps for how early it is and the cannons / movement destroy flying ships.

Mission 62 isn't really that great for early farming. 67 with the heavy cosmonauts which are actually less dangerous than regular ones are all guaranteed to drop crates on death and its heavily weighted towards weapons. Too bad its harder for Rangers and Wing Divers.

I don't like having to change my setup as fencer to have good dropship killing stuff. When my friend who is a wing diver isn't on I feel it. They kill ships and frogs so good.

RE: People struggling on mission 6 Hard for Air Raider
I just did it without picking up any healing items or using any vehicles just to see how it went and I only took this much damage, so I can't imagine how you would have trouble with it normally. Did you all stand under the Genocide Gun or try to do it in solo online lobbies or something?

Anyway if you're still struggling just go for a similar loadout to this; low-cost strafing runs work wonders because the drones don't have very much health to begin with, and with two Whale cannon strikes you can alternate between the two of them to never have to worry about downtime, and since they pierce you can also sometimes get multiple drones with them
Stuff like the Neutralize Cannon and the Autocannon also work in a pinch but I wouldn't recommend them because they generally only take down one guy at best, plus they're blocked by buildings which the regular Cannons aren't.
Basically any vehicle works because if you're this new it's primary function is to give you more emergency HP by jumping in it when you get low and driving around picking up health kits. Only bring a Naegling if you think you can actually kill things with it, i.e. you know to do things like call it a decent distance BEHIND your allies so that less enemies will attack it because otherwise it will blow up instantly.

I don't really see the problem

Fencer is the strongest class bar none, of course everyone is going to jerking it off.

Air Raider seems the most played online, though. He's fucking strong too, and a lot of fun.

All the classes are upgraded from 4.1, though. There's not a huge difference. Even ranger turns into God with lategame equips.

Won''t the ayys wreck your shit on inferno? People say 62 is good because you can cheese it by staying in the parking garage.

Are the multiplayer and singleplayer missions the same?

yes

Yes.

Limpet snipers are the only decent limpet guns for anything other than 'a single ant got past my airstrikes and I don't have enough credit to use anything else'
They're still incredibly rarely worth bringing though because why are you sniping as Air Raider, that's Ranger's job
Your job is to hit God in the face with an ICBM

Multiplayer has 2 extra missions between 108 and the mission where you fight the mothership.

I'm on 44 hard. Still using the hounds. There's nothing better yet. I might switch to my High Altitudes once they're 10, but yeah.

???

guys how do I play wingdiver? I was playing alone and having a lot of fun with this class but then I went online with some of my friends and they're calling in nukes and shit constantly and all I have is a dinky lil lasers picking off one enemy at a time.

It's all low level meme items that you would never use anyway

I'll tell you what kicks ass in this game. The Ranger's Grenade Launcher.

well, he was dashing around like he was hot shit
His second gear item was something that buffed shields while never equiping a shield
Arm hounds are legit the worst thing on a Fencer, it makes you stand still for hours while you launch attacks that won't one shot the enemy
He could have been experimenting with other weapons during this time trying to find something that was actually good
Might even have found out that dash jump is better than just dashing
I didn't want to say anything because it was his lobby but I really shouldn't have carried him through all those missions

How are you still alive?

why would you care about gear that you replace an hour in?
The weapon DLC is pointless. I got the fencer item with dashes because people said that was worth it and still replaced it after mission 30 or something.

THE ALIENS SHOULD BE WEAK TO WATER

BUT THEY ARENT

Uh, upgraded they lock on near instantly and still 2 shot frogs. You should be firing them, swapping, zoom away, and swap back to reload while flying and repeating. You can kite forever like that.

>tfw getting volun-told to help out with my folks at a camp as a counselor for the week
C'est la vie

Is it really more fun to play online ? God im autistic, heres things going through my mind :
1. Installed the fitgirl repack but too dumb/scared to figure out how to play online, like do I just have to install Steam and leave it like that or do I need to do something with the files of NODVD folder. If I fuck up I bet I'll have to redownload/reinstall the whole thing
2. I feel like its more fun to do the missions in order and not just join random missions
3. Will it be a chore to join missions, feels like it takes half the fun if I have to keep on trying to join good lobbies just to have one fun mission every 30 minutes
4. I wish I could play splitscreen like I used to in EDF 2017 back in the days but im friendless now and dont want to call up my little brother to come at my appt. because Im scared he wont actually like the game and anyway its gonna be a chore to do multiple sessions. also he can get pretty emotionless at times
5. If I play online I will feel obligated to play with keyboard/mouse to be better, but Ive always played comfily on my couch with a controller

Don't forget they still oneshot wasps on 4 player hard lmao

Good balancing there, game.

>swap back to reload while flying and repeating. You can kite forever like that.
I thought I was super clever when I figured that out.

Lightning bow seems to be the go to option this time. Works great against everything until you want some burst damage to shoot around corners in which case there are different options depending on your preference. I kind of miss old rapier and that lazer saw. It was fun to fly near hector and cut him from above while he does a funny spastic dance.

EDF DLC is literally always almost completely useless
it is joke DLC
that's why half of it are things like fucking waifu pillows

Unless they've changed them significantly from 4, Arm Hounds fire nearly instantly so you can dodge away faster, have a wide blast radius and dual-wielding them is more effective because it stacks double the missiles onto a target to make up for their lower individual damage, meaning if you land all 12 missiles in a pack of ants the whole group takes damage from all 12 missiles at once
It's really good against fliers especially
Dual spears is completely viable too, if he was just thrust-dashing around everywhere he's probably an old Fencer main who isn't used to being able to literally fly yet

>HAILs now have a jump booster
>if you fire them while heading downwards from a jump they hit the ground and kill you
fuck

Its the little details that make EDF so great

Once you go to Inferno you will be aiming to get to the second pillbug exploit mission. On the first playthrough the Hard heavy cosmos are a joke compared to normal ones and can either be shredded by a gunship or blasted with twin hand cannons. An AR would be able to use a Grape to grab everything more quickly though.

Fencer has spoiled me. Now I cant play any other class because I feel slow as fuck.

Air Raider is good if I need to nuke shit from orbit, but anything else feels like shit.

>air raider robots move like garbage, while fencer moves like a gundam

I wish they would make air raiders robots better.

>5. If I play online I will feel obligated to play with keyboard/mouse to be better, but Ive always played comfily on my couch with a controller

No one gives a fuck as long as you're not fucking up the game.

I'm finding SP more fun than MP because things don't take 50 years to kill, is it just because I'm undergeared? Are you meant to run through SP once before you play MP?

>450 hp
That's like what, two wipeouts?

You can play with a controller just fine
Make a copy of your game folder if you're scared of fucking up
Having a good teammate leave on you is the worst feeling, because there's a 50/50 chance a total shitter will replace him
Doing the missions in order IS more fun, just make the lobby yourself and wait for people

neat but I saw a EDF 2025 map in one of the reflections on a window in a city, like lmao

wipeout damage is dependant on how badly you wipe it out. You'll lose almost no bike health if you crash slowly, but will take a large chunk if you try a diving board flip/spin combo off a ledge and don't actually land on the wheels.

Pretty much

I can't tell you how happy I was to see Cake House Nishimura back
My friend insists that Iron Rain's better because 'the graphics are better' despite every building in that game looking like a fucking gray block with square windows poked out of it and every time I look at that fucking cake shop I think of it and shake my head in dismay

It's for balance reasons, same reason why helicopters control like shit
They're intentionally made slow and awkward because if they weren't players would break the game over their fucking knee with them

Yes, probably
Shit in multiplayer has considerably more health so I wouldn't recommend playing through it on normal mode because everything'll take fucking forever to kill, play through on Normal in SP if you want but I'd say at least play on Hard in multiplayer lobbies
The other players being around to save you if you die will more than make up for the extra difficulty
Don't let it stress you out either way, people don't really care if you die a lot in EDF

Thanks but I guess it just makes me want to be more competitive if I play online.

Aight thanks.

>they gave helicopters a gas value, essentially a time limit
This is some bullshit. All they had to do was fix the handling. And don't say "it's for balance reason" because they're still slow and awkward at low levels and there are now frogs with shotguns and laser rifles that move fast. Once I get the max copters I'm giving myself infinite gas if it still sucks.

How do I go fast as fencer? Should I use shotgun and melee together in the same set?

Thanks, Doc.

It is for balance reasons
Even with the shitty controls helicopters in 4 were retardedly good and were the lynchpin of SEVERAL cheese strats
You also get more fuel than it should be humanly possible to use unless you're dicking about for 20 minutes doing absolutely nothing

Do certain maps drop certain weapons, or do they all have chances to drop all weapons? If it's the former is there a guide that explains what drops where? I'm already forgetting what dropped where.

>Once I get the max copters I'm giving myself infinite gas if it still sucks.

Dont be such a faggot. You should be spending all your ammo in the helicopter before it even runs out of gas anyway, and then just call in another one.

Those strats were essential. I don't know if it maintains this pace, but this game dumps way more enemies on you at once. The first Eros copter went from 18k to 10k gas just lifting off and flying over a small chunk of the map because they're so slow.
