Did (You) enjoy the Kriegsfront Tactics - Prologue?
It's pretty neat.
how long is the prologue? I played the demo they put out a while back and loved it, don't really feel the need to play another one before the main release though unless it's longer than like 2 hours
>>22735572I thought zecha tactics finally came out but it’s a different game
>>227355832 hours should be fine for a relaxed run. Depends if you engage in the optional encounters (the patrols) or not. I have a bit over 4 hours in and run two laps over the map, played around in the garage and did the boss battle twice.>before the main releaseThere's a lot of stuff that doesn't work, so I don't know when that's going to happen.>part weight shown but not calculated>sanity meter's just there for show, hopefully it won't devolve into X-COM's shitshow>no repairs and no restocking on shoulder weapons ammo outside of dialogue options>can only swap handheld weapons at the garage despite them being, well, hand heldWhat's there is bare bones but the combat system is delicious, give it a try if you want to sample it and then get frustrated because of how little there is of it.
>>22735603Was going to make a joke about how Votoms-like it is but eh, it's pretty cool. https://x.com/i/status/1663576106849402882
>>22735572The dialogue is poorly translated, the graphics are muddy, and the story is a cliche. But holy shit is that gameplay good >>22735604Sanity meter isn’t just for show, I had one of my guys snap during the final mission and he got big debuffs, something like -25% accuracy and -2 movement
>>22735673>I had one of my guys snap during the final mission and he got big debuffs, something like -25% accuracy and -2 movementHow? Another character went down outside of a cutscene?
>>22735673>The dialogue is poorly translated[citation needed]>the graphics are muddyThey're supposed to evoke the ps1 style of 3d, aren't they? I guess that's an acquired taste. They're in a tropical forest, I think there would be plenty of mud there.>the story is a clicheIsn't it supposed to be? From what the little snippet in the prologue showed, I think the developers have a clear idea as to what kind of story they want to tell.>But holy shit is that gameplay goodYeah, it's a treat. I feel like it spoiled the Front Mission remakes for me already.
I've done one full engagement and I liked it a lot. Hope the devs manage to wrangle it into a good product.
>>22735724NTA, but:Graphics settings: "anti aliansing"Opening railroaded fight: "the damage were" classic ESL confusion on the use of was/were, double embarrassing as this is voice acted. The jank script plus the slav levels of childish profanity massively detracts from any weight in the dialogue. The amateur voice acting doesn't help this at all. They need a rewrite by a native English speaker. I wouldn't say the graphics are muddy, but they really need a competent designer to color grade the game. Lots of clashing colors combined with all the overly bright UI elements make the game look cheap as hell. Weapons also use too many particles, adding to the cartoonish/mobage look. No controller support. Inexcusable and irredeemable. That's the point at which I force quit the game so I can't comment on the story or gameplay. The mecha look nice I guess?Between this and Dual Gear I am really wondering what it is that makes Front Mission combat flow so hard to capture.
>>22735724Dialogue-wise there’s a ton of examples o where they fail to pluralize terms
wtf was his problem?
>>22742176Hating k*reans is a problem now?
>>22742184Are they Koreans? I thought the enemy were some kinda Philippine or Malaysian
>>22742184>>22742205They're very obvious indonesians, it's not subtle
>>22742456The studio is Indonesian, so it makes sense.
>>22742463There's actually some pretty neat historical in-jokes for people who get it, like how the US faction is actually based on the East India Company
I enjoyed it, the setting is fun and is the type of thing you usually dont find outside of mods will buy it when it actually comes out, always need more mech games if im being honest
