The new weapon system is a double edged sword. If it guaranteed at least one upgrade per one that dropped it'd at least be a little more lenient.

It gets harder and harder when your weapon is more upgraded. You could get 3 inferior versions of said weapon that all go straight into the trash.

I wouldn't have the weapons to back me up on Inferno, and I imagine my armor value would be pretty low for it. Some Inferno missions cap the armor at over 15k and I don't even have a third of that on Fencer and that scares me. Also people might just kick me out for it anyway.

Fucking 10/10

Honestly if you 100% offline then just cheat the completion for online, there's no sense in having both completion values be separate like this to begin with.

Do hard with air raider and fencer so you get 3x the medals. Hardest and Inferno only gives you one medal for their respective difficulty.

I am reminded in a sense that piercing attacks dont pierce shield bearers, such lame.

if you have your shield up you cannot be knocked over

Been playing 4.1 again with friends since we dont have 5, into the dlc for the first time now and its gettin reel gud
Is 5 a good successor?
I usually see mixed reactions

That sounds possible to mod in a la the 4.1 weapon mod. It would basically just be a cannon shot that you spawn that has piercing and max damage. Hilariously overpowered so you'd have to make it fairly expensive.

The only shitty things about 5 is the song and some of the DLC stages.

Fun fact: on the mission Berth, if you destroy all enemies before the mobile base comes around and drops new enemies, you can finish the mission early, avoiding having to deal with any of the enemies that thing drops.

Hard mission 88 to as far as possible for medals, 'Earth Defense Farce' no pw, experimental setups welcome.

Yes

There are many QoL improvements over 4.1 but the EDF theme in 5 is worse.

They have a massive inferiority complex and they're also perpetually embarrassed by their uniforms.

Look at that Fencer with his arms outstretched like that, he's having the time of his life!

What are the conditions to turn off armor and weapon limit online? Clearing the game online?

Sarge is the best fucking guy, his teammates complain a lot but otherwise they're good too. The Grim Reapers don't talk except for their team leader who is obsessed with death. The Spriggans have massively fragile egos for some reason and can't handle banter, they're fine and even recognize your talents when you fight with them, its not until the Grim Reaper leader teases them that they go full on defensive mode.

Having a 70% or more online completion rate. Good luck with that.

Oh yeah? Well where is that "safe place", Sarge? Right behind that other horde of monsters? While I get the standard issue weapons and you get the blazer?

More like all of them. DLC stages in 5 are barebones compared to 4.1.

I remember hearing NPCs cry as they get melted by gold ants and there's a mission with nonstop airstrikes and you have to avoid them.

You'll get to use the blazer soon

Here it is. From posts in other threads, I thought I missed Intel asking "Sarge where the hell did you get that gun?", but it's just his soldiers.

why

Slugger shotgun should have a better range than regular shotguns, not the other way around.

Actually is HQ who ask the intelligence lady from where the fuck sarge got the Blazer. She doesn't know either and HQ assumes she's lying.

Different mission then.

slugger as in up close puncher, rather than slug shooting
just me guessing

i think its another night raid/archelus mission.

I cant do hardest or below anymore. It's just too easy.

I want kids with that Gumball

I keep seeing anons joining inferno and hardest rooms with sub-15% completion and about 25% of the armor cap and expecting to be carried. This is a perfect chance to fix bith of those problems if you're a shitter. Slots still open.

Do people farm weapons on some easier missions on Inferno? I've been essentially playing the game linearly Hard>Hardest>Inferno through the missions and every once in a while on Hardest there's that one brutal mission. My weapons are always about 10-15 levels below the limit, though everything has been "beatable" so far.

It's mission 78 (offline), Monster Extermination, that sarge gets his blazer. It's right before the base reclamation missions.

I still believe that sarge got the gun by just looking at the ground hard and long enough until the blazer just appeared out of thin air.

>Upgraded blood storm

This is a bit too good for something so low level.

later versions aren't as nice.

They do, but you don't really have to.

Hmm, it's not in that mission either. Sarge says at the beginning "take it up with brass" to a soldier who says he wants a Blazer, but that's it.

Cool. Been playing online with just one other person so it can get tough some battles. Fun as hell though.

That, I think, is somewhere near the start of the first base reclamation mission. One of his squad members is the one who says he wants one.

Because they're good at long range attacks, but have no armor at all. Like a metaphor for women IRL.

Yeah it's in mission 78 like I quoted.

Are any of the cheap dlc things worth picking up in 4.1 or 5?
Already got mission packs just curious

Not at all.

>his teammates complain a lot but otherwise they're good too

the probe types for the ranger and the cores for the WD. they are worthless after 2 hours of playing, but if you are new at the game, they sure help.

Does anyone play on a controller? I mostly play Wing Diver and I like the new air dash a lot but I know I still can improve. Flying around feels natural on a controller to me but I can aim much better with kb+m. Which do you prefer and why?

what difficulty are you playing on? They do insane damage on inferno.

u just stand still and press jump lmao

>they're good at long range attacks
shitter detected

This should be obvious, but if you're spritefalling an open dropship, you basically just guaranteed that the dropship gets to live for an extra drop cycle. The same goes for high HP targets, spritefall does piss damage against single targets, and in some situations, they'd die a lot faster if it wasn't instant death for a player to get in attack range of them. The worst one is when you have an alien disarmed and about to die, then a spritefall comes in, and you're forced to back off while the ayy regrows his gun arm and starts shooting your team. Spritefall also doesn't do very good damage against pylons on difficulties above hard, you should be using a bulge laser instead, or maybe just doing nothing instead of friendly firing with an ineffective weapon.

>but if you're spritefalling an open dropship, you basically just guaranteed that the dropship gets to live for an extra drop cycle
But that is a valid strategy(with small enough spritefalls/bulge lasers) . Spritefall the TP ship, it kills all the spawning monsters and it gives lets whoever is under the ship enough free space to kill the thing.

You can send a gunship on top of it.

Just be more aware of your surroundings ffs. I'm not even talking about all the times they just aggro the entire map because they have to spam phobos/spritefall every second.

non artillery trash need to fuck off out of the red circles and let the only class that can actually kill bugs and ayys do its fucking job without listening to bitching.

Unless you have a WD flying right into it ready to take it down in one cycle.
If you have fencers and rangers camping below, then yes, it's actually helpful to spritefall.

Yeah the hitbox is in the center of the missile so when you call in tempest it dives into the monster for like half the model first

In that case yes, its the fault of the AR for not seeing that the WD is going to kill the thing.

Attached: 20190802183224_1.jpg (1920x1080, 187K)

You sure can, and you should do that.

You know what, that sounds like a really good ranger strategy. Too bad you have to learn how to cooperate with more than just rangers in this game. Creating a no-fly zone around the enemy while you have flying units is a way of directly preventing your flying units from being effective. And all you have to do to change this is just target the dropship while it's closed. That clears the monsters that have already spawned. Then sit back and watch as the WD kills the dropship seconds after it opens, and hopefully someone will mop up the 2 monsters that managed to spawn.

Unironically good advice. Artillery strikes show up on radar and on the ground, but advance warning that a chunk of the battle zone will turn into an instant death field is awfully polite.

it depends, do you want to fuck off? is so, yes, feel free to fuck off.

You were gonna be deadweight anyway then

Yeah, this does work, but it depends on which spritefall you use. Spritefall R actually has the best damage/area ratio, but people prefer later unlocks which are less likely to do enough damage to a single target. To me it just seems like the wrong tool for the job, though, especially if you have aerial units, and considering that single-target beams work perfectly.

Thanks user! You're the best

It's ogre. Thanks for the games lads.

what weapons do you even use on ranger? everything but shotguns seem terrible and useless

grenades and c4 can be devastating if you use them right

GATE is a manga/anime where a GATE opens up in modern day japan and a fantasy army comes out and kidnaps a load of people before the JSDF fights them off
Then the JSDF travels to Fantasy land and destabilizes the local government, with the help of fantasy characters like dog and cat people, a loli death goddess, a loli magician and big titty elf and dark elf goodness
also there's a bunny girl that gets raped, but fuck that bitch

tl;dr its about the JSDF and that's what the EDF is based on.

magma cannon is still in the game and I believe is the only ranger weapon that can shoot through shield screens but I doubt you will ever find a good use for it in using it that way.

I couldn't tell you, user. I didn't want to turn the lobby into shitposting after that nugget got dropped.

People don't read manuals anymore
They don't read loading screen hits either, which is basically what replaces the manual now
EDF5 has both, accessible in game
Still people refuse to check and either remain ignorant, or ask people online who also haven't read the manual.
It is a noble goal to teach people the way of teaching themselves, but sometimes its just so hard at how wilfully ignorant people can be.

waiting for 4 before we start, 1 slot

The thing is, it's the same type of person who joins hardest or inferno with 25% of the armor cap, always goes down, and doesn't ever consider that they're the problem because they got some 2* level 90 drops a few days ago so they think they're geared.

I was in an inferno vdf room yesterday that had "15%+" in the description. An user with 8% and 1.9k hp on a fencer joined. What the hell is going through someone's mind who does that? We soldiered on and cleared a few missions, but now I'm sure that just reinforced the idea that he never needs to improve his character.

40. HARDEST

I'm at 3400 and I feel like it's barely enough on hardest.

Some people think they're hot shit, they be like LOL JUST DON'T GET HIT *dies*

Theres not much point in spending time picking up boxes when you can just grind boxes on pillbugs so easily. You can pretend it saves time but youre just spending extra time picking them all up at the end of the level so whats the difference?
Also you need to take it easy and dont get hit :^)

2/4

1 slot open still. We've been doing other missions waiting for 4 people.

starting from mission 1 on hard
let's get some medals

fucking greens ruined my grenades+c4 only build

Fantasy EDF would be pretty cool. We already got dragons in 4.1 though.

Just have two alien invasions at once, one using the insects and aliens, while the other uses fantasy creatures and Hectors, with the EDF caught in between that.

>greens
>cave mission
what unholy bullshit difficulty is this

What mission was this

Earth eater was the worst part of 4. It had too much rng on where they would aim.

Earth Eaters were gay

hardest the cave mission with tons of queens

still 2 open

I can understand the C4, but whats the grenade for originally?

Earth Eaters > Pepsiman

Prove me wrong.

insane damage, radius and range. pretty fun to nuke enemies and your friends

Deserved it for wearing the shit WD outfit.

At least pepsiman didnt force me to carry long range weapons or completely invalidate some of my air strikes as AR

You can punch pepsiman on the face.

At some point in Hardest (as a Ranger) you're so under-powered that grenades become more viable than your other explosives

Yeah man, why bother playing the game when you can just grind it in the most boring way possible instead? Let everyone else pick stuff up, you've figured out the golden ticket. Brainlet.

Good use of grenades is always fun
I like to try bringing the faster throwing impact nades to fight Queens, but it never ends well cause my team mates always die for some reason
No its not my fault, its theirs for pulling like 5 Queens at once

mission 2 hard

Are blink balls just free, but slow plasma cannons?

>thread has been up for twelve hours without even hitting bump limit

Like here, this guy. This is mission 102, Tornado, and the player is using the Lysander F which is level 62. On hardest 102 allows up to level 75 gear and 5136 armor for ranger. The player has 1321 armor, which is a cunt hair over 25% of the armor limit, and is talking about how the class itself is under-powered. Not himself, not his character, but the whole class.

Nice!

Idk man just because you can grind doesn't mean you should, or that you need to. Hard and hardest can be tackled without grinding at all if you know how to play a videogame, and the overall aesthetic of EDF is inferior firepower somehow defeating a superior force. So going in with megaweapons and tons of armor kind of undermines that experience. I don't want total newbies in an inferno lobby, but I don't really make gear demands like it's some ilvl check in WoW either.

so it's not my imagination, everything really is faster on the unlockable difficulties.

Yeah they do
Just watch a frog walk in inferno, its insane

>nobody will play low levels with me
feels bad

What fucking grenades are those?

this must be that "yeet" that lil zoom zoom is always telling me about

DNG3 I'd assume

so how does progression work?
I finished mission 99 in someone else's room when I'm only up to 85. If I go to start my own room I can start it with 99 but not 100. If I start my own room and finish 99 in it will that unlock 100?

I can easily understand this games appeal, and I did have fun at times, but I had to drop it. Maps are far bigger than they need to be especially early on when you have fuck all. This is one autism simulator I just cant get invested in.

Loved the campiness of it though.

Iirc you have to progress solo

I thought this game was about shooting bugs and aliens, not picking up colored boxes. Please dont act like picking up all the drops at the end when theres one harmless enemy left is any different than grinding an entire harmless level.

I'm completely against grinding for this one. There is zero need. Playing through the campaign on hard for each class, then trying hardest or inferno after that, works just fine with no grinding and no superweapons. I'm not saying gear demands, just pointing out that the player in that .webm has 25% of the armor limit on a class whose ONLY defense mechanic is his armor and is telling other people the class is under-powered. There's a reason ranger gets more than everyone else. Would you tell fencers to play without boosts, or wingdivers to play without flying?

>especially early on when you have fuck all.
This, mobility is a big issue early

Babbies' first EDF, someone lied to you or you're fucking retarded. Make sure to play through to mission 110 with your starter weapon and starting armor then and don't pick up any colored boxes. You know, like all the previous EDF titles had you doing.

^ I usually only use AR and this WebM is meant as a joke, not a serious statement. As for the dude with C4 and grenades, that was mission 32 if i remember correctly.

Also, apart from the G&M with an auto-click, what are some weapons that can rival the other classes' firepower around those levels?

awful lot of needless hostility in this thread. virgin alert imo

shotguns

If we're going to get hyperbolic now maybe you should try getting to 110 without shooting anything huh?
Its not like im saying to avoid picking anything up, but obsessing over boxes in the middle of a level is pointless. Just pick up whats near you and go about your business. This game even moreso compared to 4.1; i havent grinded at all, yet my classes are all over the armor limit for hard by now. So obviously i have been picking things up, but i assure you i wasnt licking brutal battlefield clean in the middle of the mission.

you can only progress if you've cleared EVERY mission prior to the one you're going to, so in your case you need to clear 85-99 before you can unlock 100.

Well shit dude, I thought this game was about shooting bugs and aliens, not picking up colored boxes. Grinding the offline campaign so much and picking up so much loot that you're over the beginning difficulty's limit, how do you find time to shoot bugs?

Wow, you're a fucking asshole. I agree with you, but you're a complete shithead. Shut your mouth, idiot.

I said i didnt grind at all though. Ive only done mission 1 offline. Ive just been filling out my hard mode stars.
You need to relax though dude. Im genuinely not trying to make you mad or anything but it feels like youre going to pop a blood vessel.

If you enjoy the campiness then you might like the ending where it turns into a really heartfelt rallying cry to protect the last of humanity. It sounds cheesy, but after 70 hours of campaign, you really feel it.

I thought that the story chatter in the last mission was kind of rushed and stilted

Like, are there any survivors? What about Joel from New York? Did he make it?

>number of deployable units
>0

any buyfag lobbies? anyone want to host?

how do these people exist

the ending slideshow says only 10% of humanity remains. It only plays offline[t/spoiler]

trying again, still hardest mission 1

That doesn't sound TOO bad...

I will, but not today.
I have to go to bed.

>do not join
>has passcode anyway
Retarded as fuck

I don't understand why the "Do not Join" is necessary when the room is pass only already.

I saw this lobby the other day, before they had the passcode on
Maybe someone joined and told them about passcodes?

Is the green/purple fencer a reference to something other than thanks doc? I've seen some around

I'd like for the chat commands other than song & dnace to actually affect NPCs. "Don't stand in front of me!" and then they stop doing that unless you move too fast for them to compensate.

I'm using Green and Purple for purely personal reasons
I was in Green house

Nice!

Oh, okay. So you played in games with other people who picked stuff up, but you yourself never did, so you think that's what works. Sure, if you're going to leech off of others' work, then you can get by doing nothing. That's not the same thing as what you tried to present it as, though.
