Some new information has come out on the game's Jap site.
First off, the new class, grenadier.
>A unit that attacks with a mortar; a scout gathers information, and even if the enemy is out of line of sight the grenadier can attack – it is even possible to intercept enemies like this. Because grenades have a blast radius, they can also be used to destroy sandbags.
It also looks like we'll have the VC1 class division, so no techs, fencers or gunners.

Scouts may or may not have been nerfed, pic related.
It's also good to know that lancers and snipers are as accurate as ever.
Now some tidbits about the most important girl.
Very loose translation.
>A captain of the special experimental unit X-0, Zex All (?). She is a Valkyria, capable of destroying even a tank in one hit. As she has only ever known life as an experiment specimen she has not developed proper human relations and is bad at them. Although she appears to be cruel and cold-hearted, as she was in an experimental institution as a Valkyria just before being taken in by the Zex All, she is mentally young, expresses her emotions openly, has a strong feeling of personal inferiority and wishes for human warmth. There are legends about her being a "Snow witch," bringing blizzards whenever she comes to the battlefield with her. During her time at the institute, she befriended a wolf called Fenrir.
tl;dr
She is Snow Selvaria who just wants someone to hold her hand and be warm together.

Those hits to kill are pretty normal for a low-level scout, aren't they? I tried VC2 and my beginning scouts seemed to be 3-4 shots to kill with a headshot. Also, couldn't they alter the movement range of the other units to nerf the scout while deincentivizing rushing when it comes to the mission rank?

Scouts in VC1 had a pretty high headshots-to-kill count, especially on later elite enemies. Granted, that was completely circumvented once you started getting higher tier trophy imperial weapons with insane damage.

After looking at the screenshots a bit more, it looks like the anti-armour stat was removed from scout rifles.
Note the "X" in the scout's shot and the triangle in grenadier's.
I can't say more than that, but I think shocks got an AP boost.
There's also an entire new gameplay element called Bureibu (brave?), I'll translate it later.

It's not the damage, it's the accuracy ring, that he's probably referring to. Previous scouts, even early on, tend to be marksmen-tier. Early lancers and snipers, well, that's pretty par for course.

Translation
>This new action is called "Brave." When a character is brought to the verge of death by an enemy attack, their will to fight rises, letting them take one final action. The last action that can be taken is "Rise;" a timer is shown giving a choice between two actions during the enemy turn – "counterattack" and "Trust." "Rise" will make a character invincible for one AP gauge and let them take one action. "Trust" raises the ability of the nearest ally and recovers CP by 1. Ability increases given by the dying unit differ from class to class. Choose the appropriate action for the situation and carry on the character's dying wish.
>>13963134
You can't do it with shocks any more either.
So far only lancers and grenadiers seem to have anti-armour, and with the latter it's only partial damage.

Haven't played lots of VC2, but they were nerfed into the ground in VC3, to the point that they were only useful for grabbing the undefended bases. Seems like they found a way to fix this issue in the VC4 - scouts will still suck at combat, but they will have the legitimate reason to scout around.

>It also looks like we'll have the VC1 class division, so no techs, fencers or gunners.
Don't know how to feel about that. On one hand, techs were useful against sandbagged enemies, on other hand they took useful functions away from engineer. This was a problem when fencers were introduced, since they were overall better than techs, BUT LACKED THOSE FUCKING FUNCTIONS. Shame about gunner, though - they had a pretty interesting gimmick going on for them. Since we now have grenadiers with mortars, they should've probably made new gunners with tripod-mounted machine guns that require entire turn to deploy before firing, a la Advance Wars artillery, or something.

There is already a screenshot of scout not being able to kill enemy with a full salvo to the head at short range, so shut up. And there is nothing wrong with shocktroopers being a bread and butter of combat, because that's what they are supposed to be - sharing the role of regular soldiers with scouts, with everyone else being there for their support. Not to mention that they will be crippled by low AP again anyway.

I'm more concerned how fucking close she's using that mortar from. I hope the range can be increased a great deal.
Shame Lancers won't be able to use mortars now (I assume), so they don't really have a secondary weapon/role now. Then again, neither did Scouts, Snipers, and Engineers (outside of less accurate but more damaging guns, and IIRC choosing between healing or mine-disarming).

Scout Elites had rifle grenades in the original game. I guess grenadiers will take over both this and mortar lances as well.

"Scaling" isn't really the right term.

>>13964397
Mortar lances in VC1 had terrible range and mediocre damage.
It was essentially a stronger grenade that could 1-shot some enemies, but good luck dragging your favourite lancer all the way to the enemy just to fire one or two rounds.
We don't know the maximum range, but we do know that they can intercept enemies and lob their shots in an arc, so walls, high and low level ground are not an issue.

It's a good system, but shoots itself in the foot when you have to use characters you don't like in a game that's all about picking those that you do find appealing.

The second one. What does that level adjustment actually do?
005f4c No.13973780
>>13973624
in the original image we have an area where the original colors have been altered by a set amount. in this case since the "sample" text is white, it's just a greyscale change to each color value in that region and we can get away with using just an RGB curves or levels adjustment to change it. so for example if 50% white has been applied to a dark blue area, it will look like light blue but if we then darken it by 50% it will look like it originally did.
in this example image you can see with the curve in the original position it looks normal. with it at the top left all but the very darkest content has been made much brighter and at the bottom left, everything has been darkened until only noise remains.
if you were to be much more gentle with these adjustments and only do them in a certain area, you could get a specific effect. for example, you could select just the knight and use curves to get the brighter areas darker. moving the curve further would make even darker areas darker, and you could keep going that way until the whole image is black like the last example.
does that make sense?

the game itself is alright, but feels very repetitive since all you have to do is rush at the enemy and fuck them up in melee combat, even tanks cant hold their ground aganist the sheer might of your oversized sword and if it isnt down in 5 seconds, you can still use either sniper rifles to shoot at the weakpoint or use fire element skills to fuck them up even harder.
only challenge in this game so far seems to be the valkyria herself since you need all elemental attacks at once in order to fight her, unless you want to spend 30 minutes or longer running arround and reviving your K.O'd allies.

While I haven't played 3 personally, I thought being able to go Valkyria mode for a turn was a cool idea with the hard 3-times per map limit. Make them not invincible and just immune to counterattacks ala the Selvaria DLC in VC1 and it would be pretty nice. Alternatively, maybe they could take Kurt's super and make it the only super mechanic. Like, you can move 2 units at the same time, but it costs more CP and they can't be affected by Orders to compensate.

>>14002570
Now you've crossed the line, mister.
VC3 has some problems, yes, but when compared to 1 it has significantly improved gameplay.
The first one had very limited deployment and routes that you could take to reach your goal, whereas 3 gave you much more freedom to the point that it could be called a proper strategy game and not a scout rush puzzle with strategy elements.
Being able to fight as a Valkyria or drag 2 units with you to a specific spot and attack with all of them didn't undermine it at all. Imca's special was only useful early game and wasn't that good to begin with.
And if you are bothered that much by them, then don't bloody use them. The main story isn't too hard, so they are not necessary.

Because the latter happens on an odd occasion (a stupid decision or relying on luck) even after some 300 hours into the series to me.
It's going to be somewhat unavoidable for a first timer, especially if you're bad at planning ahead.
You really should have in mind exactly what you want to use each and every CP for. Try to make the movements in your head, or take a piece of paper and draw the map and your plan on it.
Tanks should be the least of your worries. If you can't get a lancer behind them in a turn or two or if they aren't guarding something important, don't bother – just get a defence boost or caution orders and run past them.

most of your main characters wont die, but a lot of the other minor will die you you don't get to them in 3 turns or if the enemy gets to them.
with tanks you can just take them from the front with your lancers, its not very effective but its safer than trying to maneuver your troops behind it to hit its weak spot.

Which is why you either kill them yourself or just avoid them.
If I remember well, there's only one tank in 4 and you can circle around it with a lancer in two turns.
Also, like >>14011670 said, your main characters cannot die and if a minor one falls in combat he is only permanently dead if the enemy reaches his body or you fail to get to him in 3 turns.
If you win before 3 turns pass, they'll be fine.

If you really want anything to blame for scouts being OP, blame physics. Not the game physics, but actual physics.
Mobility and striking power has always been key. So in a game where guns should work like guns, as in, one or two shots your dead. You really don't need a machine gunner. The problem is that they made the Shocktroopers machine gunner guys worthless because they could only hit one target per turn. They should have gave them the ability to attack multiple times. There was no way to really utilized their gun aside for defensive positions where they auto fire, or if you where really good at lining up shots that your main target was in front of someone else. In all honesty, they shouldn't have called scouts, scouts, they should have just called them standard infantry. because thats what they really where.
efa72c No.14012667
>>14012573
The issue is that Scouts shouldn't have such insane mobility. There's no "realistic" reason and as everyone has already pointed out hundereds of times it fucks game balance so hard the game quickly turns into "Alicia does everything while the rest of the squad cheers from back at base". Really they should have given the sniper class the massive mobility to encourage you to seek out vantage points to fire on enemies from and gave the other classes a higher but more standardised mobility. Throw in increased interception ranges for units so assaulting can't be easily done over open fields and the game would probably be a lot more tactically interesting.
Being only able to reliably kill one target an action isn't as big an issue as being unable to get in range of a target in one turn while another unit can achieve the same results as you while taking less actions to get within a decent range in a game that thinks high level play should equate solely to a strict action economy that ensures most classes become dead weights simply because they can't sprint halfway across the map in one bound.
I've never played the PSP games though so I've no clue to the extent that was fixed in later games, regardless, here's hoping they get it right this time and the game doesn't degenerate again into God-Scouts being objectively better than every other unit at the specialities of the various units.
dd65b7 No.14012994
>>14012667
Maps are cut down in into several sections on the psp because of memory limitations. Deploying and switching to a specific section requires you to capture a midway base in order to move up. I suppose the smaller maps help interception fire, but can make it rather cramped. They also reuse maps a lot.
It's been years since I played vc2 on the psp though, my memory might not be so clear
0eff3b No.14013098
>>14012667
The entire game would be balanced if grenades couldn't knock enemies out of their camps and if scouts's HP was lowered to 5/4's of sniper levels. Health is such a huge issue with scouts in VC2 that Avan is so much better than all other scouts with his giant HP pool and decent-to-great accuracy. Helmut is good if you really need a second scout, but aside from that you get nothing.

If any game actually represented other aspects of modern warfare too you'd be dead wrong.
Machinegunners arent supposed to gun down enemies, their primary role is to limit the enemy mobility and keep them pinned, allowing your units to flank and destroy them.

The entire issue is that the game punishes you for not rushing. Not to mention you're almost always attacking and never need to hold a defensive position which is where shocks would theoretically shine.
and whenever you do need to hold a position usually they spawn in a tank making the shocks worthless anyways

shooting the radiator on the back does damage, you need to hit a certain threshold damage wise to penetrate the armor, but as long as you're using decent guns it should work.

I don't really know how to use snipers… I mean I always pick one for a mission, but don't know what do to with him, they still need more than one shot to take down enemies and they can only move for a few steps.

>Thinking anything beats Scouts in any situation.
Seriously, haven't you been paying attention? Scouts should be able to get reliable headshots around the range enemy units start firing on them when they move, at that range just aim for the head and watch the enemy drop. If an enemy is in cover, lob a grenade at them and follow up with headshots if they somehow survive. If you're still feeling scared that your waifu is going to get fragged or whatever then go have your scout lie down in some grass nearby for a good defence bonus and possibly decreased visibility to enemies (dunno if that actually happened but it works in the inverse so it should).
Also, drop the fucking snipers from your team, they're shit. You need to save-scum to reliably get a headshot at any and good luck reaching any firing positions with their shit mobility. In fact, fuck it. Anons guide to VC classes:
Scout Tier
Scout: Can do literally anything and give you S ranks on every mission.
Not Scout (AKA: Shit) Tier
Shocktrooper: Like a Scout but needs to get closer to reliably kill anything and with less mobility. So not like a Scout at all. Get a flamethrower eventually, because nothing says "just use a Scout you idiot" like a weapon that does basically the same fucking thing their primary weapon did at even closer range.
Lancers: What sort of anti-tank weapon is a lance? A shit one, it turns out. Inaccurate as fuck, prone to hitting tracks rather than tank bodies and consistently less powerful than using a Scout to open up on the rear with the right orders. The size of the lances are to compensate for their entire class gimmick getting taken over by the Scouts in the mid-to-late game.
Engineers: Why the fuck are you even using these? Just don't step on any mines you moron. They're like Scouts but spend their days dry humping your tanks because all the girls are busy running after the Scouts in the enemy base.
Snipers: Literally only on the squad to fill out the diversity quotas for the severely physically handicapped. As I said above: anything you want to hit is easier to do just running a scout up close enough to get headshots and the Sniper union apparently made it illegal for any of those lazy fucks to move more than 10m in a single action or even bother to carry more than a handful of rounds of ammunition at a time. Not that they can hit anything, I guess training in marksmanship was too hard.
Tanks: Literally cost twice as much to move as a Scout, thus meaning they aren't even bothering to contend for a place alongside Scouts, just as mobile set dressing and occasional targets for Scouts to blow up.
There are a handful of situations where non-Scout classes come in handy but as a rule, VC 1 is a game about Alicia single handedly winning a war with her team of elite super-Scouts while the entire Imperial army wonder why all their bases are now Galian and some guy who likes flowers fucking his adopted loli Darcsen sister in a tank out of boredom back at base.
>>14017178
Use Scouts to run around the Eastern (right) flank of the map, that'll get you behind the enemy tank and right next to the base. Then use an anti-tank boosting order (in the menu I believe) to buff a Scout and then start firing on the tanks radiator- or just capture the base and finish the level.

Engineers restock your scouts grenade lobing, and can restock multiple units at once. While actually being able to actually keep up with the scout. They have the second most moment in the game, and will probably still be near most scouts if the scout actually had to stop and shoot something, and they share the same gun as scouts anyway.
Really, they should have just dropped the concept of classes, and went with a weight system that took away the amount of mobility you have the heavier your gun or armor is. Scouts are just your regular bread and butter troops. The enemy army is filled out the ass with them. Shocktrooper, Snipers and Lancer troopers are clearly specialized roles. Really says something when an engineer is just a scout who can't run as fast because of all the wrenches they carry.
>>14017316
The only reason I still included Welkin and his big old tank barrel is because he gave command points. Especially since his tank is pretty much replacable once the lighter mini tank comes along that you can use for mobile cover.
