Is this game as heavy on the scour-rushing as the first one? I really liked VC1, but after a while I realized I was just sprinting through almost every map with pretty much the same tactics.

Is this even slightly more balanced?

it's the same. Put a defense order on a scout and rush through the maps. The only thing that would slow you down is looking for the aces but only if you give a shit about their weapons and getting the plat.

Ah, that's unfortunate. It's sad that they can never really seem to balance the scouts properly. I feel like I'm cheating but once you've discovered the "optimal" way to play it's really difficult to turn it off, you know?

I love the setting and the characters are usually nice (if not terribly complex), the music's good. Too bad the actual combat doesn't hold up when you've "figured it out".

Anyway, thanks user. Guess I'll take a long break and see if it doesn't spark my interest at some later point.

play VC3 it's far better

It's less scout rushable because there are more machine gun emplacements and mortars that will wreck scouts blindly rushing in.
Even if it weren't, there's nothing stopping you from not relying on scouts for every situation and using other classes instead.

How so? Is it balanced better or can I sprint through that too?

Yeah, if anything 3 is shock troopers and tank: the game.
Orders are nerfed, scout durability is down, and their offense is gutted.

Sounds nice, I'll give it a shot. Thanks user.

>shock troopers and tank: the game
That actually sounds far more like a cool way to do battle than just scout-rushing.

This, listen to him OP

>world war bleach
No

Then why don't you just do this in VC4??
Sounds autistic to switch to a whole different game when you can just limit your own usage of scouts.

This, even in 1 I would spam shocktroopers and lancers because it was cool.
Also, rushing objectives instead of clearing the map is peak faggotry.

I don't understand people that complained that 1 was way too easy when they abused scouts and orders either.

It's been a long time since I played VC1 but I didn't notice the 'scout problem' at all. Without knowing what lay ahead I had to have shocktroopers at the forefront in a lot of cases, scouts had trouble killing crouching enemies or ace soldiers even with the help of a grenade, and couldn't sent anyone too far on their own because there was a chance an enemy would randomly dodge and fuck me up. Was I missing something?

You’re missing that’s these are the same people who complain about the super tank/selvaria mission being too hard.

Can someone stfu and post Kai ass

Ah that mission, that's what reminded me I was playing anime game™ when a girl charged onto the battlefield and started shooting laser beams at my units. Although it was less intimidating when I quickly figured out you could trap her in a loop behind the two tanks.

3 was too anime for me, did they have to add supermoves?

Ah yes, I too needed a super soldier to remind me the game with cute quirky soldiers in chokers and hair ribbons and a flying piglet mascot, was in fact an anime game.

Enemy Grenadiers:
>Omnipotent clairvoyants who can see you from across the entire map
>Increased senses allow them to be at one with the wind, giving their shells pinpoint accuracy
>Said accuracy applies to moving targets as well

My Grenadiers:
>Get sight-lines stuck on terrain, practically blind
>Can't aim for shit despite having A ranking in aiming
>Doesn't even know what overwatch is

I don't remember the mascot showing up at that point. But my point is that there wasn't anything wild in the actual gameplay itself until that mission.

>Is this even slightly more balanced?
Yes, but no.

>selvaria mission too hard
>can be done in just 1 turn with 1 unit
ok

The pig shows up in like the third mission, maybe even before the headquarters.

That fucking tank in 4 was either a cheese fest or the most fucking annoying thing ever. No in-between. Same with the stupid fucking final “boss”.
