Real talk, is it worth it to beat Inferno on 4.1 with 5 around the corner? I'm only half way through Hard as it is right now.
is 5 around the corner?
>around the corner
We don't even have a definite release date. It could be 2018 before we see an English version, let alone a PC release.
I plan on importing.
>finish normal with wing diver
>want to try air raider
>mfw the fucking armor grind so I can play on Hard
Does Air Raider really need armor on hard? He can call vehicles with a set amount of armor.
well, it sure helps when shit hits the fan
and on harder difficulties you'll eventually hit a point where a stray drone bullet vaporizes you, that's no fun
How do I wing diver? I like the plasma bazooka but it drains me like a bitch and I'm not feeling the other weapons.
the plasma launchers are kinda situational.
On normal I went for Thrust Rapiers and Thunder Bows most of the time
On most missions you can just fly into transport ships and obliterate them with point blank rapier fire. For mid range flying enemies the thunder bows are great.
On missions where there were tons of big tough enemies I went for rapier/thunder bow and MONSTER.
But I played with a friend so I'm not sure what's the best single player strategy.
gamu?

>friend gets hyped over Balam, he plays Air Raider
>shit finally drops in mission 70 or so
>in most missions he's just a glorified punching bag and I'm the one killing everything
I could feel the depression over voice chat.
Dont remind me.
Although punching Erginuses is tight as fuck.

TO SUCK A DICK FOR SPERMATION
*blocks your path*
these bastards deal so much fucking damage on Inferno, it's absurd
kind of want to play this, but don't have anyone to couch co-op with. can't decide on ps4 or pc release though. steamcharts shows a few hundred people still play it daily, so there's probably some lobbies up throughout the day, but the pc version is more expensive than i can get it for on ps4. i just don't know how easy it is to find a lobby on ps4. with ps4, i can always shareplay too for co-op with my friend. might just wait for 5. dunno.
it's definitely better with a friend than with randoms.
>tfw you unlock a high level Grape

>MISSION SUCCESS
>turn around
>nuke my team/partner
I can't the the only one that does this
I thought everyone did it?
one thing to help power management is learning to hop
basically the jetpack expends a set amount of power at first no matter what, if you hold jump to boost your self up for just that amount of time, you will have a net gain of power on the way down
i'm not sure if i'm putting this well because i'm tired, tell me if you don't get it

The world is going to be destroyed by insects, unless you rank the four classes of EDF 4.1!
Bonus: Rank them in usefulness, skill required and fun all separately.
fun:
Wing Diver
Air Raider
Fencer
Ranger
Usefulness:
Air Raider
Wing Diver
Fencer
Ranger
Skill required:
dunno
Fencer > Air Raider > Wing Diver > Ranger
fencers are so fucking clunky though
I get that you can go fast with dash cancelling but I prefer the overall mobility of the wing diver
What is the best AA solution for an Air Raider? These red scout ships are a pain in the ass.
So far my favorite vehicle the DM03 Vegalda
Naegling if you can get everyone to ignore you.
Otherwise Vegaltas or wires if against Dragons.
ZER-GUNs and naegling self propelled rockets for masses of enemies.
probably railgun tanks for big flying things, gigantus if you're fucking clairvoyant in your leading ability
What are Gigantus good for?
shooting big fat things that don't move much
like mostly everything in an air raider's arsenal, it's niche but it's damn good at its niche
earth eaters don't move for the most part, by the way
EDF 5 looks lazy as fuck.
Can the Gigantus even aim that far up?
just prop him up on a destroyed building or something
reminds me of your dad when he's fucking me in the ass faggot
how so?
I mean, none of the games in the series have particularly high production values, despite how fun they are
The higher tier Gigantus is hilariously fast. Not as fast as a dash-cancelling fencer but you can keep up with wing divers if there aren't any buildings in the way.
It's great for missions like bug invasion or demon army where you have to kite enemies if you want to survive.
Gameplay wise it looks almost exactly the same as 5 with some new enemies or minor adjustments.
>massive mobilization on Inferno
>tfw want to use all of Fencer's cool guns and missile launchers
>so slow I get swarmed immediately and shotgunned/bitten by ants
>forced to kite everything with melee weapons and dash cancelling
I dont know how to feel about this
Play on an easier difficulty.
...
My bro used to play this with me in co-op. Now he's never wanting to play.
I was Ranger, he was Fencer. Was doign our hard run when he stopped.
Should I play without him?
I kinda want a plat on PS3.
Lol
I ain't the fag complaining about not being able to use specific weapons.
AIR RAIDER A BEST
Fencer can use the heavy ordinance more if you're cooping with friends, otherwise stuff like heavy mortars are highly situational. Light mortars and automatic cannons are my go to for single player along with melee/shield.
The biggest mistake of my life was waiting to try him last.
EDF!

As much as I love this image it's actually not accurate at all. If the EDF win they can at least rebuild, if the other guys win it's literally complete human extinction. That's the entire justification for FUCK IT RAIN MISSILES ON THIS CITY UNTIL IT GLOWS as a legitimate tactic.
What else would you expect from some stupid memer from /m/?
I dont even go to /m/ I just wanted to bump the thread
Just answer my survery guys
I already did tho
Hey.
Hey, man.
C'mon.
You are saying they'd make a sequel that's just more of the same stuff people love with minor addition and changes? Preposterous.
Hey man /m/ don't you shit talk about /m/. Though Tokushit is NOT /m/ in my book
That's been ever EDF game since the PS2 game, and they've still been really great at every iteration.
>wing diver ontop of the wall
Kek
Playing this as my first EDF game, around the part where dragons show up. How close am I to finishing the campaign?
SHIT JUST KEEPS GETTING CRAZIER!
1488
There are about 90 levels in singleplayer before DLC, and about 10 extra for multiplayer.
Dragons is pretty much lategame
who vegalta custom revolver here?
I actually started playing this series for the first time like a month ago. Saw 4.1 for like $15 at Gamestop so I figured I might as well get something mindless to hold me over until RE7 came out.
Holy shit, what a game. Seriously the most fun I've had in ages. I love the fact that you can drop in and just blow shit up from startup in less than a minute. I can only imagine how much fun it would be playing with people, but I'm having a lot of fun playing on hard solo with my wing diver.
It's unfortunate that I didn't know that I should be collecting armor early on, I've got about 270 or so and the dragons are wrecking my asshole all day. It's starting to take me about an hour to finish each mission now but it's a RUSH.
Yeh.
>It's unfortunate that I didn't know that I should be collecting armor early on
The game does a poor job informing you about the whole crate mechanic system
>It's unfortunate that I didn't know that I should be collecting armor early on
I collected like a madman until I realized that 5 crates = 1 armor (for diver)
but then I tried inferno missions...
Can you play co-op in a pirated version through hamachi or Evolve?
