mission 88 in what game? Also I wish I could join matches mid-game.

How the FUCK do you beat mission 40 with WD? The red drones just rape you up the ass no matter how fast you move and the mother ants constantly make a beeline for you

>>16697467

You playing solo?

>>16697489

Yes

>>16697481

I'm not a slut.

>>16697498

I'd recommend trying a core with good dodge properties, and then just trying to kite the ant queens while sniping the drones. You could also try fencer as he has both good mobility and can equip a shield so you can facetank the red drone laser while you shoot it down.

EDF!

at first i didnt like the new songs, but later it grew on me

>>16697523

I like the lobby/menu songs a lot.

>>16697505

Thats what a slut would say, slut.

>>16697545

>buying the decoys

For what purpose?

Does anyone have any fixes to stop the fullscreen from stuttering so much?

Holy SHIT replaying missions that contain the semi-cutscene "game takes control of your camera" moments is getting fucking annoying. Is there a way to make that shit stop? Is it tied to some stupid shit like screen shake? I'm trying to leave screen shake on for my first complete run through the game.

>>16697534

The dragoon lance and the stardust cannons made hard mode somewhat bearable for me.

They carried me all the way through to the end.

Fuck the game was so unforgiving in the last 30-40 levels.

>For starters, fuck me how are you supposed to beat mission 88? It's a nest, and a queen, and two big fuck you pylons drop down halfway through as well.

Play as wing diver.

>>16697534

>get rushed by any big horde

>blow yourself up

>>16697665

>>16697672

This is why I play fencer, if I'm not in the swarm fisting them all then I'm doing it wrong.

>>16697602

The decoys are cute at least, the van is actual idolshit for basement-dwelling NEETs/weebs/NEET weebs

>>16697620

FROM VICIOUS GIANT INSECTS WHO HAVE ONCE AGAIN COME BACK

Out of curiosity, where does 5 fit with the plot of the other games? It feels more like a reboot than a continuation of 4.1.

>>16697702

It is, it's a separate timeline/universe

I like the civilian outfits more than the actual ones, can you switch back to them? Also fuck caves, the only 3 missions I've had to play on normal to get through were cave missions. And is it just me but are wing divers decisively better than all the other classes? Their weapons are on par with all the ranger/fencer ones I've found so far but they have way more mobility. In particular there's a big fuckoff 5000 damage plasma gun that uses all your charge but you can hold it as long as you want (like their other weapons), haven't found any weapons in other classes that are nearly as good.

>>16697802

I too want to be able to switch between the fencer skin and bob the builder.

>FROM NOW THESE GIANT ANCHORS WILL BE CALLED BIG ANCHORS

Real creative

>>16697850

The corny writing has been a staple of the series since the beginning.

>>16697852

Even better its the corniest its ever been with some examples like "SPACE WAR" and what not.

>>16697878

>Those aliens looks just like us!

>>16697896

>We just lost 20% of the total human population in the last 4 months

>20%? That doesn't sound TOO bad

>>16697896

>>16697899

the level where they said the frogs looked just like them was in france

>>16697850

>from now on, the flying monsters will be called "flying aggressors"

As if species alpha and beta weren't lame enough.

>>16697624

Turn off "camera effects" in one of the settings menus. You can turn off screen shake there too which is almost essential.

Fucking Linux crashing on mission 9 reeeeeeeee.

>play wing diver

>fly like a butterfly

>sting like a bee

>literary

damn, feels damn different from 4.1, specially with the whole evade thing

If you are sick of getting your neck snapped via camera control you can disable that and screen shake in options.

>>16697962

>screen shakes like michael j fox in an earthquake whenever anyone so much as farts near you

Thank god that can be turned off.

>>16697975

Dodging attacks from all sides as WD feels amazing. I'm reaching DMC levels of crazy, especially against drone swarms.

Well apparently the key to beating 88 was to just spam the shit out of spritefalls until everything died.

holy shit these armored ayys

>early missions

>only have shit weapons

>start using 30mm gallic heavy cannon

>it penetrates all the insects

unff

>mission 92

that was a shyamalan tier twist

its just me or these type 2 drones are weaker than the regular ones?

>>16698079

it's cause they don't get blown the fuck away from a single bullet, you so can just hammer them until they die

>>16698043

Any idea on what might be causing it? It seems to crash for me when someone starts speaking while a pylon's destroyed.

I THOUGHT YOU GUYS SAID THE DEROYS WERE GONE AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

>>16698092

They are hot cancer as always

>>16697458

How does one use a Fencer? I remember dashing in 4.1 and was able to do that but here I'm getting caught by red ants and almost died to those frogmen. Any tips?

>>16698212

instead of canceling, you now go fast by side dashing and then almost immediately jump boosting, so you need to put in your equipment slots things that let you boost and dash multiple times to really go fast. As for frogs, either snipe them with a gallic cannon or use a shield and a gatling gun and laser them down.

>>16697911

The localization team is topnotch. that little monologue about chugshumans in reservations at the end of mission was too good

>>16697697

WE'LL UNLEASH ALL OUR FORCES, WE WON'T CUT THEM ANY SLACK

Man this series is great. But my fondest memory was:

>>16698299

>salute dash to recover my fucking jump

What is salute dash?

>>16698301

Nice.

OH WE ARE THE VALIANT INFANTRY, WE ARE THE ALPHA TEAM WITH PASSION AND CAMARADERIE

>>16697711

Fuck I was excited to get a sequel. Though I was not sure how they would top the world eaters. Next step would have probably be interplanetary warfare.

Maybe a reboot was warranted.

>>16698429

I guess they call them Kaijus because they're something that exists and breeds on Earth but bigger.

>start 5

>WHAT ARE THESE MONSTERS?

So is 5 before all the other games or something? In 4.1 the first few missions were just

SO WERE THEY HIDING UNDERGROUND?

>>16698429

>They call the giant insects "monsters"

>TO SAVE A MOTHER EARTH FROM ANY ALIEN ATTACK

>FROM VICIOUS GIANT INSECTS WHO HAVE ONCE AGAIN COME BACK

You are a mega retard there is no denial in that!

THE E.D.F. DEPLOOOOOYS

>>16698438

In 5 I've heard nothing but monsters being spoken not insects. That was his point.

>>16698438

That's EDF 4.1 you double nigger. I'm taking about 5.

>>16698435

>>16698438

5 id an alternate timeline

>>16698429

I heard the story is soft rebooted, watch a fucking nip sci-fi film or really anything

>>16698356

bind one of your option (ctrl) to do a pose, like formation 1 for example, then dash and right after do the pose, you would rocket off at extreme speeds but the pose is long but you will recover all your jumps.

>>16698435

>>16698393

Every EDF game besides 4 is a new timeline. It's not as much a reboot as it is a continuation of the trend

>>16698438

And

>GIANT INSECTS CAN'T FLY

>>16698457

>Every EDF game besides 4 is a new timeline.

Not true, the PS2 games were all from the same timeline. So far there were only two time lines for countless games (most of them are ports), this "only" the third time.

>mission 82

Is there any way to get rid of the control tool-tip, shit is infuriating.I can't farm inferno like a bitch in peace

>play with random

>he bitches about how no one plays on normal

These people exist.

>>16698596

normal is too easy. The only part I don't like about hard is the bosses like Ergines seem to have way too much health. Takes like 15 minutes of continuous shooting to make him trigger the surrender.

>>16698214

You can still sort of cancel, just unfortunately not with shields. You can take 2 blasthole spears and dash then fire the spears so you keep sliding a bit instead of the dash stopping short like it normally would. You can do the same with a light mortar, and those give you jumps so you can boost jump then cancel with your melee or cancel with your mortar when you are waiting for your jumps to regen.

>>16698639

Most VOs are pretty alright, it's just porters and WHALE that got a massive downgrade, mainly because they were so spot on in 4.1

>>16698685

A lot of the VOs seem like they were just having fun with the roles rather than trying to be super serious. I welcome that kind of talent.

>deroys with wing diver

This is unfiltered cancer, what the fuck even works against a big group of them?

>>16698754

>You have good taste, air raider.

>>16698085

They seem to be consistant dialogue (or something on the backend?) crashes for the most part, though there are random crashes/freezes too.

I just put it on easy and sweep through the mission quickly and hope I skip the dialogue that makes the game crash.

>>16698762

Stardust cannon works best, just try not to blow yourself up when they stomp at you. The cannons and the thunder crossbow are also decent alternatives.

>>16698864

I think he knows.

>>16698879

>Wanting ultra wide anything

Fucking faggots with more money than sense.

Do other tps have these? I swear I only ever see it on FPS. Also he does have a bit of a point.

>>16698879

TEN OF MILLIONS O.N PEESEE ALONE

>>16698879

Do people seriously own those ridiculous "ultra wide" screens? Why?

>on Unreal

How about fucking no.

I'd sooner complain about the controls of helicopters still being utter ass and basically unusable.

>>16698879

>>16698904

Why are ultrawide fags so obnoxious?

>>16698922

gotta get your money's worth out of that shitty monitor you bought

>>16698903

Ultra wide is the future man. Unironically, ultimately we will get 360° screens.

>>16698937

Yeah I know. Probably not in my lifetime. I mean we have had VR for 5 years and we're still not even close to get a real game out of it, so the perfect screen is a pipe dream.

>>16698918

Even if they want to obtain everything legitimately, so what? Just leave the fucking room.

>>16698953

>join game with hackers

>you have two choices

>act like a grown human and leave because ultimately it doesn't affect the game really nor you

>WHY THE FUCK ARE PEOPLE CHEATING GOD I HATE THESE GAME GOD FUCK SHIT FUCK FUCK SHIT FUUUCK

they're autistic, it'd be different if it was a competitive or actual proper online game with negatives to cheating.

Does anyone know a good mission to get drops for Dash Cells and Jump Boosters for Fencer? I got level 1 for both but obviously I can't zip around like a retard like that

>>16698883

There's a few TPS that do, RF:GR is one I can think of, but honestly you rarely want to touch it much, high FOV looks real fucking weird in TPS

>>16698922

They're literally the stance nation of pc gaming

>It's wider / flusher so it's better

Never mind the fact that short of hemispherical screen / HMD a simple screen is never gonna be "immersive".

>>16698975

16 / 53 / 82 are fairly decent for farming.from what I've seen

>>16698982

Thanks bruv, I'm gonna go collect to go fast

Now the spiky mysterious monster is raping my face goddamn. It really makes me wonder what insane bullshit is down the line since I'm barely halfways into the game now

>>16698972

Legalists. They're the kind that will act all higher than thou when they learned you used an hex or memory editor to give you infinite something for fun in a game that didn't have an unlockable cheat for it.

They are the kind of people who believe that laws are inherently moral and must never be questioned otherwise you're evil. Most are consolefag refugees, but thanks to steam, reddit and the like, some all times PC users are from that team too. Needless to say they are also vehemently anti-piracy, screaming at every corner how it's theft and put companies out of business yaddi yadda.

The also vote democrat/openborder/globalist, obviously.

>>16698983

You also can get a cell that charges both dash and boost, so you have a free slot for utility. The exoskeletons are pretty top notch in that place.

>>16699012

Oh shit I didn't know those existed, do you happen to know which missions drop that one?

>>16699018

I don't remember well, but the two I have are levels20 and 35, so I think missions in the 30s and maybe a mission in the 50s would drop it.

>>16699025

Awright, I got some good shit to look forward to

>>16698972

>no negatives to cheating

>removing all consequence doesn't destroy the point of even playing the game

big yikes from me fam

>>16698996

It's pretty autistic because their own problem is solved by pressing the quit button. It's the same shit with people getting "toxic behaviour" from others online, nigger just use the fucking block button.

>>16699032

I know this is bait because of the

>yikes

but it doesn't effect anyone but the hacker, you can easily quit. If someone wants to cheat and just have unlimited mayhem then they should be given the freedom to do so and if you don't like that then leave. Not sure why anyone would play with randoms anyway.

>>16699037

if they want to cheat then they can keep their faggotry offline or host their own rooms.

>>16698482

Don't Insect Armageddon and Iron Rain have their own timelines as well? That would mean there have been 4 timelines.

>>16698639

Tried doing Hard as well, my weapons just weren't killing shit at all. I don't think it's you.

>>16698429

In the mission where you are running away from the walking outpost It's somewhere between missions 20-25. They say "We're like bugs" when the mech gets stomped so bugs do exist, they most likely don't have ants or spiders though. Frogs don't exist.

>>16698429

>>16699069

They call the queen wasp a "queen bee" outright so they obviously know what bugs are, they just call them aliens because they are fucking building-sized monsters

>>16699066

>Insect Armageddon

I didn't count that one because it wasn't made by the same guys. But yeah, it's an other alternate universe. I wasn't even aware of Iron Rain before this thread. It looks a lot like the first footage we got of EDF5; rebrand?

>>16698922

>Why are ultrawide fags so obnoxious?

>ADL

idk, jew tell me.

>>16699051

They could but chances are they won't so you can just quit if the devs aren't brainy enough to develop anti-cheat.

>>16699072

Did they even use the same localization team this time? Might be entirely different people, which would explain the inconsistency.

>>16699066

>my weapons just weren't killing shit at all. I don't think it's you.

Yeah, some missions are just torture, but others are perfectly doable on hard. I'll just pick hard and see where it makes me eat shit.

Also, screw whoever made weapons have accuracy levels of C or below. You may as well not use them at all with how inaccurate they are.

>shoot rockets at drone

>rocket takes a 45 degree turn to the left and hits the wingdiver in midair

Both funny and annoying.

>>16699088

>if the devs aren't brainy enough to develop anti-cheat.

I'd much prefer the way it is right now. Let those who want to cheat do their thing. People who want to have serious sessions should just use the steam forums or their own friends to group up. Joining randos is always a gamble anyway.

If they were to add anti-cheat they'd most likely opt for some third-party software that constantly scans your PC for "hacks". No thanks bro.

>>16699088

>if the devs aren't brainy enough to develop anti-cheat

Oh god no. Why are people so excited with the idea of having an extra load that have no business with the game running on their computer?

It's like asking for cops at every street corners to stop thieves.

Pro tip: if you don't let the niggers in your country, you don't need drastic anti-thieves measures.

It works with games too, anti-cheats just like having cops everywhere, is an hindrance.

>>16699127

Yeah, exactly. I played World at war with hackers in game and it was a fucking blast. It was a great thing to play a serious game one second and then the next game we're playing star wars.

>>16699066

>>16699127

The new upgrade system can make or break your weapons. Some weapons get almost all their stats fucking doubled with a full upgrade, so keep that in mind. Often times it’s better to use a lower level upgraded weapon than a new high level one.

>>16699154

Yeah I noticed. Receiving upgrades is totally RNG, right? I thought maybe if I use a weapon I want to upgrade it'd give them sooner, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

>>16699088

>anticheat for player hosted games

that's fucking retarded

>"Watch out for the bird like monsters!"

>it's giant hornets

Does this shit ever get addressed? Why does the world of EDF5 not have a single entomologist?

>>16699190

Nothing that happens in the game is really. It's actually just a bunch of kids playing pretend in an autism house.

>>16699169

Yeah it’s just random, but repeating levels where stuff is more common will obviously upgrade it faster. Also the game seems to imply that you can choose where to allocate upgrades but if that’s the case I’ve no idea how.

>>16699190

They don't have researcher Ohara. It's no wonder they seem so confused.

>>16699214

How does it imply that?

>>16699219

The loading screen says something about it but I can’t remember specifically what it said right now. It could also be just a mistranslation.

>>16698883

Most modern TPS do

EDF is around 85° but seems to show some more on the top of the screen, likely for better view at aerial enemies

One of the few games that has an FOV out of the box that doesn't bother me, same with Vanquish, Just Cause 2 and Max Payne.

>>16699338

>french EDF thinks frog aliens look just like them

>beijing air is literally killer poison

>that line about wanting to evict the aliens because they immigrated illegaly

When does Air raider gets fun im in mission 19 and its clunky as fuck. Cant deal damage when enemy is too close because i will kill myself and vehicles are shit.

>>16699387

Pretty sure you can end up spawning mechs eventually, could be wrong but if you can I can see that pretty powerful

>>16699387

Around mission 50 for me

>>16698299

>Literally every chink lobby is full of cheaters

Stereotypes exist for a reason

>>16699387

Once you get Phobos, spritefall, and autocannons. Sadly most of your vehicles will suck except for helis and special ones like proteus.

>>16698639

>EDF 4.1

>"The airforce is returning to the battlefield?! They'll be torn apart by drones!"

>"This is air to ground teams, you've always got a friend in the sky"

>Later on in that mission, they report how the airforce is almost entirely wiped out

Fuck.

>>16698775

>You can deploy again if you like ;^)

>>16699405

The latter tanks aren't bad, especially the smoothbore cannon ones,

>>16699421

So far I’ve yet to find a tank I can use reliable like the giganteus series in 4.1. Their durability is really abysmal, even the armored caravans outdo them, but maybe I’ll get better ones on inferno.

>>16698639

EDF 5 is only harder because you couldn't cheese the whole fucking game by farming inferno on the first mission to get the best weapons and sleepwalking the whole way through on top of new enemies as well.

>>16699382

Highly recommended to use the following for finding out what level you need for X, what mission drops what level weapons, etc.

http://leafierlemon.com/edf5/calc.shtml?lang=en&tab=w&active=1&w=6

After watching some other guy talking about EDF, apparently the upgraded twin spear you get later in inferno allows you to go absolute cuhrayzee fast, you think you're fucking fast right now but you get to go even FASTER

>>16699387

Beacon launchers for the gunship are a godsend. Timed reload so you can do other shit, and when it's off it's short cooldown it deals great damage. Always better than a limpet except for when underground or against drones. Limpets just aren't fun or especially useful.

Take one or 2 of the beacon launchers, then take bomber call ins or satellite strikes. Watch the bugs explode. That is what makes air raider fun, calling in death and destruction from above. I've never really had issues hitting myself with the 150mm cannon, it does good damage too so I'd recommend that weapon.

Unfortunately a lot of the vehicles aren't anything especially powerful, and all of them move slow. Air raider is pretty clunky as he doesn't have any mobility, hell, at least ranger has the fun bike. They are just a good supplement to his kit with some extra damage and tankiness. I do enjoy the armored vehicle grapes and the depth crawlers though. Can't speak for the mechs because all my level 10+ mechs are 0 stars and I don't want to wait 14k points to call one in.

>>16699451

How does that help?

It doesn't show weapon drops.

>>16699474

the last link shows where the weapons drop, in case you're retarded,

<40 39 Brutal Battlefield 12–21 12–21

>weapons drop from a level of 12-21 on mission 40 on HARD

>for fencer for example (boosters)

>dash boost 2 & jump boost 2 & multi-charger 2-2 only drop

< 53 52 The Army Group Raid 18–27 18–27

>only until a better jump booster has a chance drop until mission 53 on HARD

Is there some sort of trick to going quick as a wing diver or is it just early game aids? also the low energy is pretty annoying, I keep trying to fly and realizing I have no more power

>>16699499

Spam the dash move. You barely lose height, go pretty quick, and use little energy.

Anyone have that video of the 2 fencers going full Armored Core on each other? I need it for demonstration purposes.

>>16699519

Should still be in the previous thread

>>16699382

I wish i could fencer but i just dont have the right weapons i guess. Ranger is working out better than I thought tho, explosions EVERYWHERE.

>>16699507

That's the right click thing right? I use it but it doesn't seem to work well for me. I just hop from building to building usually.

>>16699533

I use controller so I wouldn’t know. It’s the same button that makes ranger sprint. Also as you progress you’ll get fired with yuge energy stores and some give you bonuses to flight speed.

>>16699471

Do the tanks get faster as they get better? I liked Tokyo Drift'ing between containers on the dock level while shooting at those underground entrances in 4.1. Would be a bummer if they nerfed those.

>>16699538

Thought that might be the case, I'll have to keep playing then. Hoping for a chain electric weapon soon. The ones I have now are less than satisfactory.

Fencer is only good character. All others suck big fucking cock.

>>16699615

Which one was that? If its the one with the god damn bullshit green trace lasers i agree.

Anyone want to play 5? Room name True Demon Ending.

>run as soldier

>camera zoom on his ass

why?

>>16699451

speaking of, when do you get FG8 chainguns?

>any mission with araneas

>OW UAH AUGH UAGH OW endlessly

Hate this

>>16699770

>full

fug

>>16698393

Didn't 4.1 end with 90% of humanity dead and nearly the entire planet's infrastructure in ruins? They would have gone extinct if anything invaded ever again

>>16699907

Sounds about right. 5 ends the same way, except it outright states that only 10% of the total human population survived, there's almost zero government left to speak of, said government has zero ability to do anything like rebuilding or law enforcement, and Earth was about to enter a long, nasty dark age.

>>16698639

>Also, anyone else think missions are a bit harder on higher difficulties now?

if you are starting from zero, yeah, they are fucking hard, specially that damn fifth mission with the drones, i was an AR without AA, I guess its hard because of the whole upgrade system for the guns, they are not that powerful when you get them, you need to grind to max them out.

>>16698639

>>16699998

You just need to base your equipment off whatever is needed during that situation. There's no more 10,000/20,000 damage instant call-downs or instant rail-guns anymore so you have to use your brain and adapt.

I'll repeat what I said on the other EDF thread: they nerfed the shit out of a lot of early game ballistic based weaponry in that distance plays a factor on damage. Read the descriptions.

>>16700029

The damage dropoff is insane early game

I hate that lasers on WD becomes trash after having only 50% ammo left.

>>16699770

Well gg guys

>>16698754

im at mission 39 pure hell on earth, when im going to get a qt girl for artillery?

>>16699451

wait i need to grind certain mission to max my weapons? fuck

>>16699998

No way, starting on hard is much easier than 4.1.

Compare air force (mission 11) on hard with 200 hp online to mission 5, it's equivalent mission. 4.1's version is an absolute ball buster because of how much damage everything does, compared to 5's higher armor gain rate and lower online mode damage, as well as drones just being less bullshit. Hopefully the blue faggot laser bullshit drones that freeze you in place don't reappear, haven't seen them yet. Frogs are deadlier than hectors ever were, but disabling them is pretty effective and air raider especially is much better at it with reloading strikes, like the 105 spam you get early has been great - you can stick the beacon to things and the shots will track them. They're not as powerful and they don't have infinite range anymore, but the utility is much higher, and using spammable 150s, they don't have nearly as much radius to kill yourself with.

>>16700029

yeah, i just went full support for my team and pray they could fill all the drones

>>16700075

spamming the fire button for those weapons is easier on a gamepad I suppose so I'll refrain from calling you a scrub outright.

>>16700152

From what I've seen, the mission where you have to kill the fortress and the ones where the greater pylons get spammed are the real filters, the rest of the missions are almost all about hyping up a new enemy. Even the final boss isn't all that hard even with his bullshit "hit the whole map" asteroids attack that knocks you all the way back and can get you stuck in ragdoll against the map border if it hits you in just the right way.

>>16700175

I wouldn't have a problem with spamming click in any other game, but it legitimately hurt my finger to do so for such an elongated time. It's the first time it's happened to me in a shooter, but EDF missions don't exactly have allot of down time to give your finger a rest.

>>16700151

i have autisum so im going to max all the weapons

>>16700152

>Blue faggot laser bullshit drones

Oh anon if only you knew

They took the red flying machine from 4.1 dlc 2 and merged it with the red drone

>>16700241

Yeah but you only get a handful of those in any mission they're in. 4.1 would throw hundreds of the laser fuckers at you any time they showed up.

>Deroys

Seldom have games quashed my enthusiasm to play so quickly. Sometimes I love these devs and sometimes I want to beat them senseless with the keyboard they developed the game with.

>>16700350

What class are you playing? I don’t find them that bad except when they show up en masse in inferno missions.

>>16700350

I got through em with WD and the lvl 15 plasma canon which can one shot them in the body.

>>16700350

>Deroys

Air Raider A2 Minigun makes short work of those guys

Oh shit how do you beat lvl 28 with the red drones as air raider. Which fucking weapon can take them down.

How the fuck do people have the lvl 100+ weapons already. Just saw a Japanese name Air Raider with lvl 111 ZE Blaster which is from Mission Pack to I thought, is all that shit in game already?

Really kind of missing the Earth Eaters from EDF 4.1, nothing quite reinforces the feeling of absolute hopelessness like being in a squad of guys shooting at the sky until mankind goes extinct.

>>16699382

Saw a vid of a fencer with the Dash G (8 dashes) and Booster G (8 jumps plus a shitload of horizontal speed) combined with the Blast Twin Spear who was light speeding across the fucking map. Wish I could find it again

Would love to hear japanese dub. English dub is okayish you can hear they really tired to simulate evil ojo-sama type of speak when you launch spitefal beam.

>go from lasers, guns, mechs and nukes to swords and slingshots

rip earth

Any idea what are the actually minimum requirements (never trust what the publisher puts up on steam/gog)? Anyone tried running this on a toaster?

>>16700596

Literally just pirate it and find out if it works. You can even buy it and refund it if need be. How on earth would anyone know the "true" minimum specs anyway?

What is it with people asking the most retarded fucking questions.

>>16700596

From what I've seen it runs better than 4.1 in some instances like building a lot of buildings at a time.

That shit always wrecked my i5 3570k which doesn't happen here.

Some framedrops when tons of shit are on the screen now though.

I'd say if you have a medium spec GPU from the last 3 years, a medium spec CPU from the last 7 years and 8GB of RAM that you're set.

>>16700605

They really improved the performance on building destruction.Usually in 4.1 it drops fps if you blow up 3 skyscrapers.

The true test for performance is using a rapier on a shield screen at point blank. That usually drops frames to 1 on a potato

>>16700602

I wouldn't ask if I could just try by myself, you moron.

>How on earth would anyone know the "true" minimum specs anyway?

What is task manager?

>What is it with people asking the most retarded fucking questions.

You're just too uneducated to even understand it. I'm sure indians think toilets are stupid too. Also sage isn't a downvote.

>>16700605

>8GB of RAM

That has to be a joke.

>>16700623

If you can't try it yourself, wouldn't that imply you can't play it either? In which case you wouldn't need to know anyway.

>task manager

>resource use is always the same and a good indicator of required processing power

Sure thing, anon. That's how it works. Imagine thinking this.

>thinking 8gb of ram is unreasonable to have

How is living in the third world like? Probably why "you can't try it" since you have to be sure before downloading at 25kbs.

>Also sage isn't a downvote.

>using sage because a thread shouldn't be bumped by this stuff == downvoting

I wish underaged cross-posters would leave

>>16700637

>resource use is always the same and a good indicator of required processing power

Benchmark the game if you're so great. What's a better benchmark than the actual resources usage happening right under your nose?

>thinking 8gb of ram is unreasonable to have

It's not unreasonable to have, it's unreasonable to use. Unless you can assert the game is loaded 4k textures. Can you?

>using sage because a thread shouldn't be bumped by this stuff

>u underage

Do you even know what sage actually does? All you did was bring the thread closer to post limit, sure you didn't bump it, but I just did, and this thread is active, so other people will bump it as well. By acting all higher than thou you're just shitting it up for everyone else. Not me.

You're a massive retard.

>>16700623

>8GB of RAM has to be a joke

I don't see how that's a joke, it's the requirement for many process heavy games.

>>16700684

Have you ever watch how much you game actually take?

Breaking news, even factoring win10's bloat (lol, using win10) and heavy shit in the background like a browser with 50 tabs opened, and the game running, of course, you're not even close to reaching that much RAM usage.

Don't trust the specs given on store pages, they just post whatever they have in their test machine.

>>16700596

>>16700623

>>16700665

If you'd convert just a quarter of the time you spent being a nigger into actually figuring shit out yourself, you wouldn't be acting like a nigger and begging for people to spoonfeed you in an EDF thread. Nobody is going to waste their time compiling a list of hardware they believe the game will run on for a faggot who couldn't be fucked to do basic things like provide their own specs, especially when you yourself could figure it out if you'd just turn the game on, you humongous retard.

>>16700623

I have a GTX 960, 8 gigs of ram and an Intel i5. Runs perfectly no lag whatsoever on max settings. What gpu and shit do you have?

Why was that not the first thing you did? Why are you gay?

>>16700694

>of course, you're not even close to reaching that much RAM usage.

I am actually

Windows 7 takes around 1GB and EDF 5 takes 5 to 6

>>16700706

>Can't even get a single stick of 8GB DDR3 for 35 eurobucks

<I'm saving money

>>16700706

>>16700665

Because different hardware works differently. That's fucking why. I can't believe I'm actually answering your stupid fucking question.

>8gb unreasonable to use

Absolutely fucking wrong.

>All you did was bring the thread closer to post limit

So did you by posting, I don't see how that matters. I was going to post either way. It's not my fault people like yourself think that his retarded post is worthy of bumping the thread.

Unlike yourself, I don't pretend to know about things I don't actually know about.

>>16700706

>admitting to moving countries

Wanting to get out of your shithole?

Maybe you shouldn't be thinking about vidya if you can't even expend the less than 100 bucks required for your hardware.

>No one asked for such a thing.

Yes, you did. That's what would be required to find out the "true minimum requirements" of the game. Why do people talk about things they clearly know nothing about?

>>16700694

>>16700694

That is verifiable false anon. It's always nice to be proven right about retards like yourself but it sadly also means that faggots like yourself are on here.

>>16700706

>No one asked for such a thing.

Okay anon I am sorry, I run the game at 60fps. I hope that is helpful data for you since it conforms with your request.

>>16699887

he has a null bulge

>>16700726

>Wanting to get out of your shithole?

Yes. France is dead. Too bad for you I don't download at 25kb and the reason I move is because of shitskins and commie taxes.

>That's what would be required to find out the "true minimum requirements" of the game.

For a sperging autist like you it definitely would. But I got the answers I wanted, so you can go fuck yourself.

>>16700744

>I don't download at 25kb

Sure you don't. I do have to wonder why you "can't try it" then?

Yes, France is a shithole. That's what a nigger-loving race gets. You best not be coming here.

>>16700744

We could've helped more if you bitch ass just provided specs and wasn't such a nigger.

>french

stick a baguette up your ass frenchie

>>16700750

Disk space. I can download it, but I would have to swap drives to install it. Too much of a chore. Need low profile SATA cables which I don't have.

Because I'm moving out and I'm not retard, I won't spend money on replacing this computer's parts when I'm about to build a new one in the next country anyway. Because only retards throw money out of the window just because they can.

>>16700770

This >>16700762

>>16700773

>>16700770

As a final addendum I'd also like to add, that this makes no sense. If you don't have the space to install it, you won't be playing it anyway. If you're upgrading after moving, you wouldn't need to know. You're either a terrible liar or a dumbass.

This is what happens when you eat slugs and frogs like the subhumans your people are.

>>16700778

>If you don't have the space to install it

lrn2read, I said I had to swap hard drives. Why the fuck would I swap in a full hard drive for the sake of not installing the game on it?

>If you're upgrading after moving, you wouldn't need to know.

Never said anything about "upgrading".

Also we don't actually eat slugs and frogs, I've met maybe one person who ever ate frog and it was definitely not part of his diet, as for slugs it's not the creep that is eaten but its whatever it spits, which is disgusting to me. And we also happen to wash ourselves too.

Did you know that turkey was also a country and not just an animal. Holy shit burger, does that blow up your mind?

>>16700790

>Never said anything about "upgrading".

"I won't spend money on replacing this computer's parts when I'm about to build a new one in the next country anyway."

You're implying an upgrade here, unless you mean to downgrade your pc.

>>16700794

You're being fallacious. When you buy a new car, does it have to be either an upgrade or downgrade? Are there laws against just buying the same thing?

Do impulse mines just not work on ayys? I can't seem to get them to trigger

>>16700798

>builds a new pc

>just gets the same shit despite it being a toaster

>fallacious

I think you're just a homo retard.

>>16700805

Fair enough, I actually intend to upgrade, but not in the sense you'd think, I already have good enough GPU and CPU that I'll keep for the next computer + a bunch of older stuff I'll bring with me to make an additional build for LAN play.

>oh boy, edf 5 thread

>its just a bunch of faggots arguing

beat hard and tried to immediately go to inferno but the first mission with the teleport pylons is beating the shit out of me. Best attempt so far was with 2 wingdivers constantly flying away.

I only have about 1400 armor and ants are too fast to dodge

Ranger life is hard.

>>16700853

Only the last 10% of the thread. We can still salvage it.

If you give up, it's over!

>>16697896

I believe they are referring to the fact that if, for example, you decimate their legs, they would fall over and helplessly shoot at you until regenerating lost limbs, just like humans would, right?

>>16700891

the real ayys do the same, though

>>16700873

Just looked it up. Apparently they're indicators for emergency exits.

>>16700906

>jumping out of a high rise window is an emergency exit

well alright then

>>16700918

My guess is that on actual buildings, there'd be a fire-escape there.

Jumping out of the second or third story and getting a few broken bones is preferable to dying in a fire.

>>16700924

Snapping your neck or dying from the fall would be preferable too.

this is a 1 in a million thing anon, how the fuck did you manage to do it twice unless you spilled your piss bottle on your computer multiple times.

>>16701480

I don't think I cared until I saw this retarded fucking post. It's funny that you put "(((entitled)))", yet the idea that "entitled" is some kind of insult, the idea that the customer ISN'T entitled, is one of the most jewish fucking concepts plaguing the entire industry. Being the consumer, the one with the money, is exactly the thing that DOES make you entitled, and it's the only thing that offers any remote sense of pushback to an industry that does as it pleases.

>>16701485

Yeah. He should pay more attention, it's not a $60 game at all, it's a ~$120 game.

>>16698922

They fell for a meme and then either realised they were stupid and needed to blame someone else for their tardation or didn't realise they were stupid and automatically bitch that their niche shit isn't catered to by everyone.

>king spiders still ragdoll 10 miles into the sky when dying

So glad they didn't fix this

>>16701494

The guy is a whiny prick bitching about something he could have looked up in advance, also it's a $0 game if he wanted it to be.

>>16701160

I'd be more fine with the game not being finished if they at least updated it into completion. Too bad it's made with consoles in mind so we're stuck with a half finished product for all time.

>>16701539

this

at a minimum all games should be pirated first and money only given to dev's if you think they deserve it.

Is there a list of lines that are actually voiced?

The only other good budget nip game I can think of is Way of the samurai series.

>>16701746

SRW is alright

Also, how are you guys so far into the game? I'm barely in mission 15. I'm trying to test all the weapons but I've only played Raider so far (played the winged chick once). So many weapons. Just discovered armor is an upgrade for the future. I had thought they were irrelevant in Normal.

How many fucking times is this spiky nigger dinosaur going to run away? It's been like 4 missions with him on it and he keeps bailing aaaaa

>>16700872

>>16701752

Finished the game on hard, now I'm sitting here wondering how japanese faggots have the Mission pack 2 weapons on PC already. Used an unlocker or something I assume

I just want my max lvl fencer dash boosters man

So are we actually playing together, or just slogging solo or with randos and then complaining about it?

>>16701868

Oh. Welp. Guess I'll try and unfuck my shit anyways for >>16701858 .

Alright. Room name is Ugenix, password's lollipop. Story progression is separate from solo and multiplayer, so we're only able to start at up to mission 20.

>>16701881

Will check it out, try some new loadouts maybe

Anyone else having trouble with the game not taking input again after alt-tabbing out?

>>16701887

Having to re-start. The client won't accept input from my keyboard again after I tabbed out to share the password and room name. I'm re-making it now, but won't be able to post here while we play.

>>16701888

>>16701925

So do their clothes get stripped as they take damage in the pc version?

>>16701951

Yes

>>16701923

It seems to be moving along and getting quieter. Net and power are back on, but I don't really want to host again for obvious reasons. I'll jump in if someone else does, though.

Since both of you were interested in the Wing Diver class and neither had played much or at all of her, I can give you some pointers on my main. What to look out for, how to use certain things, etc.

The first thing to know about Wing Diver is that your power reserves are a more important number than your HP. Your ability to fly, shoot, and even dodge is tied to that bar, and if it runs out, you will more likely than not die right there unless you've got allies covering you. Emphasis on 'dodge'. You are a sitting duck without power. Manage that bar like a helicopter mom. Any consumption of the bar also prevents regeneration of it, so you can't just dodge forever and wait for it to come back if you're low. Bring your A game for kiting.

As for role, WD is, depending on how you equip her, either the party rogue or the party wizard. All of her weapons draw from that energy bar, but some do it as you're charging up to shoot, while others will charge a separate battery that it pulls from between reloads. The latter is typically preferable as you can still shoot while on cooldown, but the most powerful weapons require charge per shot. Of course, there are too many weapon types to give you a complete guide, but here are some standout options.

Dragoon Lances - These are like the Rogue Backstab feature in RPGs. Extremely short range, but absolutely insane damage and extremely energy-efficient. They also pierce multiple enemies, so when you're getting mobbed at point blank range, you can use these to stab through crowds. They pack enough punch when fully charged to one-shot some of the tougher enemies like Pepes.

Stardust Cannon - This is a shotgun that you have to charge up per shot, except it can fire over 100 pellets when fully charged and each pellet can outrange some assault rifle weapons. Very fast-firing for what it is, you'll want to look out for this around level 20 or so. It shreds drone swarms with its wide spread and can stunlock large aliens indefinitely for the 2-4 charge shots required to kill them at point blank. Be aware that this and other weapons like it actually create explosions on impact; you'll kill yourself if you press the barrel against your target.

Plasma Cannons - These are brutal energy hogs, and fire massive arcing plasma mortars over artillery distances. A bit of an art to learn to use, but I've killed 5 Pepes in a single shot with them before. If you ever wanted to play Mega Man X in a TPS, this is how you do it. Friendly Fire machines.

Homing Weapons- I haven't had too much luck with these; they seem to be toned down from 4.1. But still, you can lock on and fire around corners with them, which is a boon when your only defense is not being seen or hit. Geist series are energy-efficient and have decent fire rate, and Ghost Chaser will clear the sky once upgraded.

Special Weapons- A super mixed bag of very flavorful but questionably useful special grenades. My personal favorite is the Gleipnir, which is a grenade that will dispense a hail of 600 homing shots of the course of a minute to a huge area. Not much damage, but great for keeping ayys from getting a window to shoot you in. Shreds drone swarms.

>>16701964

The other big thing to mention is to not underestimate the effectiveness of your dodge in the air. You can clear the entire map without touching ground with a good enough power core. It also lets you instantaneously change direction, even if you've been blown into the sky by an explosion. I suppose I should spare a word for power cores, too. They're pretty generic upgrade options at first, but later ones will tilt your power usage to one purpose or another; sacrifice total capacity for increased flight speed, or reduce flight speed for accelerated weapon charging. That kind of thing.

The mind-numbingly retarded thing you have to really watch out for is that for some brilliant reasons getting hit robs you of your momentum, so if you end up in a crossfire of machinegun Pepes, you can end up locked down with a dodge that doesn't give you any momentum at all. As a general rule, you really want to keep your distance as Wing Diver unless you're going in for Lance or Stardust kills.

>>16701964

>Ghost Chaser maxed with Big Core

now THATS the real shit

>>16702135

Better get your fencer buddies to bail you out :^)

>>16702135

Try sentry turret spamming. Its surprisingly viable and when you actually get a vehicle you can stick them to it for extra firepower. Limpet guns, especially the limpet sniper which was godlike in 4.1, have been nerfed and aren't very good.

>>16701394

Wait, what? They are? I've been grinding solo for nothing?

>>16702179

Item and armor drops are retained between solo and multi. Story progression is not.

>>16702135

Drive a tank / armored transport into it.

>>16702182

Can you at least beat it offline and have hardest and inferno unlocked online or vice versa?

>>16702197

Dunno. I haven't finished the story yet.

>>16700922

Probably but theres also an item limit, more people means picks are more likely. fewer un collected item means more drops from enemies.

End credit song is pretty good.

>>16701629

>>16701649

You're asking how to deal with the ant queens as fencer? Fuck, if you were a ranger I'd understand but fencer?

Dash jump boost around the map and kite them with big guns and blasthole spears or bring a shield and reflect that shit back in their faces.

>>16702340

>>16701649

My favourite method is to stand under them and cook them with the flame revolver

Okay so is the Monster Zero just shit or am I doing something wrong? The description says something about over charging it, but no less charge only seems to mean less shots that go fucking everywhere? Do I just need to wait until I get a higher level Monster?

>>16702362

yeah I usd that too and it seems to really be useful as fuck now

>>16701629

My favorite method is to dash in with dual flamethrowers, but it's a bit hard to aim both flamethrowers at once.

>>16701629

I dual wielded dexter shotguns while jumping around like an ADHD kid on coke.

>>16702376

Fuck, someone beat me to it.

>>16702252

Is it as good as 4.1's?

>>16701629

Anything with a lot of ammo that can stunlock. If you are a ranger Minon Busters work really well against any large enemy like that so long as youre in range

>>16702376

You may need to bite some of your mobility and only use either a mixed booster or a jump booster, then put on an arm exoskeleton.

>>16702363

It's shit on purpose. You'll get the real Monster soon and then you'll be carrying that baby all the way to the end along with the Stardust Cannon.

>>16701752

I've done Ranger to 44

Wing Diver to 42

and Fencer to 20 something

But that's all on Normalfag just to farm some armour

>>16698883

the only reason they want their FoV slider is because if they force the 21:9 UWS aspect ratio without changing the FoV it's utter shit. each resolution/aspect ratio have their own optimal FoV.

>>16702746

I don't know who that is

tfw you never get to play EDF with /v/ because of different timezones

>carried my team in mission 39 with my air raider

>revived everyone while jumping around with my mech

>two fencers still alive with me covering my ass

feels damn good

The pill bugs are some of the dumbest game design I've ever had the misfortune of dealing with. Holy shit. The deroys are welcome by comparison.

Maybe it's because I'm playing Wing Diver? Their sniper rifles are hot ass, the lockon weapons are all low damage, and their big long-range hitters are slowly-moving plasma mortars that they just step out of the way of most of the time. And their leg cannons strip you of mobility and combo you into infinity if you try to get close.

>>16702815

>>16702819

I just get close to them, shoot them with a A1 Minigun and instantly kill them with heavenly fire from above.

I guess they do suck for mobile focused classes due to their lock on bullshit lasers.

>an entire multipart operation to take down the spiky fuck

>after he spends 5 missions just running away

God this is such a cocktease, it's truly the Erginus meme from 4.1 in massive steroids

>>16702950

You think Satellite-chan is a christmas cake? Or older?

>even halfchan /v/ has a squad UWU

>>16702972

We've got 109 UIDs one of which was my phoneposting during power outage, so all we need is for people to show up at the same time and we would too. It's not like we're hurting for a player base.

>>16702957

Deff a cake, maybe just before ara.

>>16702972

problem is a lot of anons have other people that got it too and end up playing with them .Maybe

KyoAni is burning down due to incendiary attack. Multiple fatalities, 20 still missing. Was it the Reavers, the Monsters, or the Giant Insects?

>>16702993

I have work in the morning, but a big ol' migraine right now, keeping me from sleeping. I'd welcome the distraction.

>>16702996

if you get migraines often and have difficulty sleeping, consider taking melatonin supplements. i get debilitating migraines and can't sleep for shit without drugs, and found out that i've got a serious melatonin deficiency

>>16702996

Alright, small problem, I might be retarded. How do you set the password?

>>16703000

>>16702996

Alright I figured it out.

Room name is Bug War

Password is qt

>>16702999

I do sometimes. But it also sometimes gives me what I call body nightmares, which I think is a form of sleep paralysis where my skin is lit up with awful sensations that jerk me awake all night, but I'm not actually conscious enough to get up and do anything about it, just toss and turn violently all night.

>>16703004

Cool. Be there in a minute.

8/v/ no pass room is open xD oh well

>>16703025

Frog extermination mission went along.

>>16703090

Is this because we kept blowing ourselves up?

Had full party for the longest time ':3

Levels on weapons are only there to tell you about weapon limits when playing online.

Stars really dont mean anything. Its just there to tell you the overall stat upgrades on the weapons

>>16703293

The level is for level restrictions, to prevent you from using high level equipment when you're playing online with someone at a lower mission or difficulty than you. If you're playing single player, then this doesn't mean much to you. Missions will drop gear within a specific level range, depending on the difficulty. Levels do not change for a specific piece of gear.

Stars represent the quality of the item. Next to the weapon level, the star value listed there represents the highest star value you have applied to that item. Look at a weapon with multiple attributes with stars next to them, and you'll notice that the highest number is what appears next to level.

When you find an item or weapon, it comes with all of the star values randomized. For example, let's say you find a Rapier that has 3 stars for capacity and 5 stars for damage. If you already have that same Rapier, it takes any higher attributes from the new one and applies them to yours. So if your Rapier had 4 stars for capacity and 1 star for damage, it is now 4 star capacity and 5 star damage. This means that it is really easy to upgrade a bad version of an item, and comparatively difficult to maximize an item.

If you see a white star by the name of an item, that means that all star values for that item are maximized. The item cannot be any better. It is a 'perfect' version of that item.

>>16703303

>>16703312

Well, fuck.

I was hoping for an easier way to prioritize weapon testing. I'm getting overwhelmed by the variety.

>>16703320

Also, Plasma Deadfall is shit. Who has time to aim a fucking mortar? Was lucky my Phalanx W1 shreds through those froggers.

>>16703281

When you use the enemy's language, you validate the enemy. When you validate the enemy, you are the enemy. The enemy deserves and receives no mercy.

>click spoiler image

>actually clicked do not bump

ok I'm retarded

Well, can't be too big of a deal then.
