my sole issue with EDF5 was the difficulty of the DLC missions. They were overall easier compared to the 4.1 DLCs mainly because you get lvl 100+ weapons that completely break the balance of the game (especially as a Ranger)

It has few drawbacks though, such as being unable to call a vehicle right at the beginning of a mission, and the epsilon railgun was given to the ranger (which can call vehicles too but generally weaker than the air raider choices and with a fuel meter).

technically a bit longer than that, i got it on PS4 back in december 2017. It was also the sole vidya I've managed to make both my parents play (in splitscreen co-op) as the setting was ridiculous for them to be curious and give a try.
>>16675709
oh yeah the PC port may already have the Wing Diver patch fix that prevented the infinite flight exploit present in the japanese PS4 version (use the lance weapons by aiming to the ground, which push you above by the knockback one of the lance weapons had a triple shot meaning triple knockback, and then abuse the flight roll actions to let your energy bar replenish)
But otherwise Wing Diver was also changed to make some of her weapons requiring charging first before firing, and the behavior of the weapons change depending how much you charge (you can either choose to shoot small plasma bursts in quick succession or releasing a really huge one with the artillery cannons for instance)
Also the grinding is far less a pain in EDF5 than 4.1, as the loot you get during missions is partially shared among the other classes. Weapons are originally weaker than their 4.1 counterparts but you can get their stats upgraded (range, ammo, damage, shot speed, etc) as time goes on. Hardest and Inferno difficulties are locked until you entirely finish the campaign once, but achieving a mission on Hard also counts as done in Easy/Normal for completion

Underused really. 40k fits any genre you can think of.

Yeah the dub in 5 is somehow lost the cheese factor from 4.1 that it’s astounding at how little they cared about it. I mean christ, when you miss the nameless-but-eternally-beleagured Commander’s Assistant (the one that is in charge of your equipment requisition and pretty much got her warehouse of goodies torched in City of Dragons mission) in 4.1 you know it speaks volume at how low the voice quality dipped in 5.
>>16675749
Other than that, it’s only some YMMV stuff such as the class’s designs (I for one, prefer 4.1’s fencers, Balam, and Wing Divers) and Vehicle changes (Epsilon and THAT FUCKING BIKE are no longer on Air Raider, Can’t deploy them on mission start, etc). That somewhat detracts in from 4.1 but other than that, 5 is what a true sequel is. Revamping everything while keeping the core game intact.

Yeah you could spend money/gems to buy weapons and you earned money based on how well you performed in a mission (complete the mission quickly, don't use too many items and don't take too much damage to earn good rankings in a mission).
They tried to make Iron Rain more appealed to westerners compared to the main series, considering the developer of Iron Rain mostly worked on the WWE 2K games over the last couple of years. At least Iron Rain had decent visuals and I liked that you can create your own character but enemies moved really fast and I think the game could've done with bigger maps

EQUIPMENT SLOTS
You know how Fencers are pretty much niche in 4.1 and requires lots and lots of autistic training to be able to outperform his contemporaries? Well not so less in this one
Now Fencers are not casualized per se, but it’s definitely the class that has been buffed the most behind the Air Raider. Since the inclusion of these Equipment Slots, experimenting with the Fencer to build’s content is more rewarding (and FUN!) than in 4.1. Be it being a classic Zip-n-Dash Spear Fencers, One-man artillery squad, or a Dakka-tastic Git, the equipment just adds so much needed versatility or performance enhancer to push Fencer above its previous limits. One of the noteworthy equipment loadout is that you could stack Boosters, allowing you to Boost (Horizontal or Vertically) 6 or 7 times without needing to recharge.

Also Serious Sam is fun to play alone, whereas EDF really needs at least one other person to work properly.
So all in all its a weird thing to compare these two.

online matchmaking was pretty empty and i think microphone support is really bad/non-existent, never made any friends online.
multiplayer completion of missions is separate from singleplayer so even if you beat the game none of the missions will be unlocked for multiplayer and you have to start over, real fun.

When the frog guys appear the radio people kept on saying that they "look just like humans" when they were fucking frogs who walk on 2 legs.
When the ayy lmaos appeared the radio people then said "they look nothing like us, they are hideous" then they are bipedal humanoids just like us.

The trick with dual lysander loadout is weapon swapping. You can close to double your damage by removing both the shot cooldown completely and about half of the reload if you stagger the reloads.
<Fire 1, swap, fire 2, swap, etc.
<Fire 1, initiate reload, fire 2, swap, continue reload, swap, fire 2, swap, finish reload, etc.
>is that more of an online thing
I'm pretty sure it is. The lysander Z does 6k damage, which is overkill in single, but with 4p online, it's enough to 1 shot all drones and 2 shot golds.
The loadout is the absolute best for multiplayer drone duty, but it leaves you fairly vulnerable to hordes. The hordes should be fencer's and air raider's job anyway.
f38596 No.16680621
>>16680605
>The trick with dual lysander loadout is weapon swapping
Yeah I had that part down, but still usually would just rather use the Stringer J9 + something else in sniping heavy missions, at least on solo inferno, you can make some pretty weird mix work actually like J9 + Fusion Blaster ZD for DLC2 16 or J9 + Stingray MF on DLC2 20

EDF 4.1 is already starting to want 4+ core and something bigger than a 1060 to run at mostly 60fps so it's not necessarily an unbfounded concern.

Navi isn't really reasonable price to me, $200 is reasonable but there doesn't appear to be any new $200 cards in a long while, so your only option is RX 580 which is 4 years old.

Navi also means price drops on older / competing stuff, same with the CPU sure a 3600 is like 230 bucks but if you can get the 2600 for 150 it's much more interesting.

I would assume so. Insect Armageddon was the first EDF game brought to Steam, if I remember correctly, and it was another spinoff aimed at western audiences.
That being said, Insect Armageddon also sold less than a quarter of what EDF 4.1 sold, and it was even given away in a Humble Bundle at one point for a dollar. So maybe they won't even bother, especially since they didn't even bother releasing a physical copy in the west.

I just picked up an RX 570 and installed it exactly one week ago. I have the 8gb MSI model, and for ~$120, it was a massive upgrade over my old GTX 660. I overclocked it to 1440/2100 while managing to lower the core voltage by about 40mV. It's been good enough to play Kingdom Come with all settings on medium (sans ultra textures with the HD texture pack) while maintaining at least 60fps. The recommend specs (not minimum) for EDF 5 (as listed on Steam) suggests an RX 480/GTX 970, so an RX 570/580 would easily handle this game on good settings, amongst all future games that are as resource intensive (or lower) compared to Kingdom Come.
>RX 580 which is 4 years old
It's been on the market for just over 2 years. You could also consider the GTX 1660, as it is brand new, similarly priced to the RX 580, and is similar in performance. But unless you want to hop on the RTX bandwagon in the near future, I don't think there is anything upcoming that is going to be a good purchase compared to what is already out there.

No dice in east Eurofagistan. 150€ minimum for 4gb, 8gb is 170€. I might just order a Vega 56 from Germany for 250€, but that might result in buyers remorse when they come out with their next $200 card that will beat the Vega 56 and use half the power or whatever.

That card is the RX 5700 and it's not gonna be 200 for quite a while, the successor to that is at least a couple years away.

I'm not in the US, and the Ryzen upgrade is too expensive (the same proc costs 170€ where I live) alongside of forcing you the Win10 crap for driver support. So a Haswell CPU sidegrade looks cheaper and less a pain in the ass to deal with in the long run.

I completely forgot about her. She was mainly used for the satellite weapons, so my friend and I dubbed her 'Satellite-chan'.
In one of the later missions she seems to die by the sound of things. She says her bunker is surrounded, starts crying and begging for her life, then goes quiet.
After that, we were determined to finish out the game. Do it for her.

When I first finished the game is was actually quite surprised by the way the story progressed.
Humanity really just barely scraped by. There was a real sense of hopelessness and dread by the end and finally overcoming the threat was merely bittersweet. Humanity survived but at a great loss.
EDF doesn't get enough credit in that department.
Talking of 4.1, the first DLC mission pack was really good. I think only one or two missions weren't good.
Just started the second and it's pretty tedious so far. The missions are very lazily made. Is it like that all the way through?

so far so good (only reached mission 5 online for now) but the real test will come later when deroys and shitload of spiders come in, as both enemies put a lot of stress on the hardware. I get a weird bug that makes the game refuses to launch at first, forcing me to load the game a second time but everything is okay beyond that.
Also I strongly recommend using a controller for this game since some keyboard inputs are weird (like driving a vehicle or positioning a bombardment on the map), and you cant share the same keys set on common controls. It's not like you need 420headshotnoscope skills to beat giant enemies

The issue with that is that the direct fire artillery role is better done by Ranger with a good rocket launcher anyway. I don't know what Light Mortars are like because I haven't had the chance to use them but it feels as if kitting out a Ranger with a Volcano launcher which deals 4000 damage with a fast reload is far more worthwhile.

The game is good
I'v only played the first few missions so far, but i'v already noticed some nice improvements, The Rangers Sprint gives you a bigger pick up radius, at the end of a mission a small part of your weapons and armor pick ups will be for other classes. Weapons you already have can now gain upgraded stats from pick ups, and there is now support equipment that gives you buffs, I got 110% movement speed or 120% dash speed.
Just being able to move faster as the ranger is a god send.
As for the PC port it's just as bare bones as 4.1 was, no improvements on that end.

I do have one major complaint about the game to make: Hardest and Inferno difficulties are locked off until you beat the game once. I'm annoyed because the devs balanced 4.1 toward grinding out gear and health, even though the most fun in the game came from tactically figuring out levels well beyond your health levels. Now I'm basically being forced to play on an easier mode than I want to.
52ffa9 No.16684921
>>16684906
I actually am okay with this, it removes the temptation to just get carried on one inferno mission then use your huge OP weapons to steam roll through the lower difficulties. And especially now once I get to inferno, everyone who plays with me will at least have a respectable amount of armor and arsenal. On 4.1 there were a lot of people who would join my inferno lobbies with 400 armor and lvl 20 guns, and they just would have no idea what they were signing up for.

I have a craptop with a 940m, at minimal settings, fullscreen, at reduced resolution it ran at playable speed, though it'd probably get choppy during more particle-heavy parts than the third mission offers.
The 750TI is a bit better than that, so it's probably playable at all times if you tune it down a bit, or might be able to play at 1080p with occasional framedrops when shit hits the fan.

Something feels slightly off about this game. Maybe it's because I'm forced to play on hard and don't have the higher level weapons, but shooting bugs is nowhere near as satisfying as it was in 4.1 I only have two weapons on the Ranger I feel remotely satisfied in using. I feel like I have permenant blueballs. Also, while the frog people were a great idea, I sorely miss Hectors. Fighting Hectors with their noodley appendages ragdolling through the air was much more fun. And each time the frog do a side step or roll to avoid fire I die a little inside.

Wing diver is the worst culprit to me in this regard. Disliking all the charge weapons, my m1 is pressed practically the entire missions if I try to conserve energy and play well. Would be alright if there was a setting to start charge on one click and fire on the second. Even when I do my best to conserve energy the weapons don't feel worth it over 4.1's weapons, or just sticking with the initial rapier.
Unfortunately I miss the hectors too.
Other than that, I'm enjoying all the other classes and their changes immensely. If you haven't checked out Ranger's grenade launchers, maybe you should. I found one with 4 shots I enjoy.

It's definitely the weapons. If you take a minute to look over the stats you will start to see why, especially if you play classes like Ranger and Fencer. A large majority of their ballistics based weaponry have damage taper off the further the distance. It's fucking awful with the starter weapons so that's probably what you're experiencing.

CODEX releases start off clean with the option to crack in a check box, so just tell it not to copy over contents. Goldberg's steam emulator changes the game to LAN, so you'll need to use tuungle/logmein or some other LAN emulation software if you wanna play over the internet.

Technically if you're playing after grinding for a while and have sufficiently powerful weapons you can push him with his stagger animation towards the point he needs to reach for the mission before having him damaged enough.
pretty much like 4.1 actually

If you click make window border-less and then quickly click on the game it will work, But as soon as you change the focus the game becomes windowed again. so you'd need to repeat it each time.
I'm not sure if that anon was able to figure anything else out, but I doubt it since I'v only be able to fine one other post about this online with someone experiencing the same thing with this program.
Apparently it's the games engine that's causes the issue, it will just always change the setting back to windowed.

Use the orbital lasers. When you gitgud switch over to cannon call ins; whichever does the most damage per shot and has the lowest reload timer. Pair it up with any wide ranged artillery call-ins that require points. Use all of the above to contribute towards your vehicle point pool.
Alternatively, use power/life-spout/guard assist guns and posts on your teammates to help them survive and kill shit faster so you get your vehicle call-in faster; you can also attach these to your vehicles for a mobile buff providing platform. That was the go-to strategy for 4.1 Inferno maps - because almost all your call-ins required points.

What class are you playing? I beat it a few hours ago on Hard as Ranger with double shotguns and a Blacker tank. The tank wasn't that useful for much besides taking a few blows and getting in some decent pokes with the cannon, but it made a good safety net regardless. Won't lie, though, I relied on health drops more than I should've.

Ranger, I only tried it once so far since I had some other shit to do. Had a suboptimal build for the mission, with a slow burst AR and a grenade launcher that isn't great for large hordes, although the heli I got was doing pretty well. Problem with that is that while it keeps me alive, it doesn't work well for picking stuff up and thus makes it hard to keep allies alive. So once I ran out of heli weapons I was all alone and got swarmed.
I'll probably make it in a few tries when I pick some better weapons, probably a decent AR and rocket launcher or something.

The only helis in 4.1 that were remotely maneuverable were the vulture series. It's best to just stick with ones that have missiles, auto-acquisition guns, or unguided bombs so that you can actually hit stuff just by looking in the general direction.
