Eternal beta is happening right now and is really good. Why isn’t anyone talking about it?
>>23068987It's a bad gacha game.
>>23069006t. Havnt played it
>>23068987Can someone try to sell me this game? It seems to be your typical mobage shovelware.
>>23069058See >>23069006
Stop playing phoneshitStop Shilling phoneshit.
A lot of the animations are from Cross Rays. Not bothering with this shit until they shut it down and release a complete version in a couple years.
>>23069093Yeah this seems like literal shovelware. I have yet to see a anything interesting about it.
>>23069093Why not reuse crossray stuff? Everything that wasn’t in Crossrays has Crossray style new animations. Fuck you old bats are cynical
>>23068987I didn't realize the applications were up and missed the chance to get into the network test. Nothing I can say about it, sadly.
>>23070216>Fuck you old bats are cynicalPeople are annoyed they're working on this rather than a complete console game covering both AU and UC.
>>23070216It's literally just a gacha game to milk retards. There is literally not a single reason to play this over cross rays. There is nothing interesting or unique.
>>23070441There's MS that weren't present or Cross Rays or Genesis you can get here. That isn't me praising it, just depressed at what a monkey's paw this shit is.
>>23070481Like don't get me wrong, I wanna like it but I literally don't see anything unique about this game. The gameplay seems to be the modern SD Gundam gameplay but watered-down even more... I just wanted something I could point to and say "that's interesting" "that has potential". What good are those new MS if you can't use them to do anything interesting.
I’m confused because every single stream I’ve seen of the test makes it just look like a full ass G GEN for free. The gacha almost feels like an afterthought.
>>23070547It wasn't initially that way, but the first network test was an unmitigated DISASTER that caused them to go radio silent so long people assumed the game got scrapped. It was much greedier at first, we'll see how it moves forward.
>>23070551So I’m not crazy? This like. Actually looks like a REAL videogame?
>>23070556I'm mean I don't know what you wanna hear. This is not 2017, there is a lot of actual quality games on mobile nowadays despite the gacha mechanics.
>>23070565Well every other post her is saying it’s shovelwear Gacha slop so I was confused
>>23070567It's your an above average gachaslop for the 2025 standard. But this is not an actually good mobile game like the new Wizardry for mobile and others. That`s basically it.
Sucks that we get a mobile version and not a full-on game, but what can ya do, it was gacha or nothing most likely.Still, what I've seen of the new beta seems neat, some neat choices in units like some stuff that hasn't been in G Gen since like the PS1 days and seeing the UC stuff brought up to Cross Rays standard and beyond is neat. Wish more folks were uploading unit footage over general gameplay but ah well.The EX units and the Red Zeta look cool, and of course the Casval Gundam from Gihren's Greed would get in given recent events.Seems like for a gacha it's doing a lot of things decent, so I'll be interested in seeing how it develops, if just to see how much content it'll end up covering before it dies off. Network test is almost done at this point, I wonder how long after that we'll have to wait for the true release.
>>23068987>closed betaWell fuck.
>>23068987Is it just Aerial for WfM? Anything out of the ordinary besides the D Fake gundam?
>>23070696Only Aerial thus far, a reward for filling out a goal grid.Outside of that it's an assortment of mostly OYW, Zeta and SEED stuff for the demo, plus a handful of other assorted stuff. As from Double Fake, the more "obscure" stuff would be the MSV-R stuff, Gihren's Greed, and Gundam Evolve I suppose.
>>23070717
>>23070720
>>23070722
>>23070726And that's the lot for the demo it seems. To save time, the three cut off at the end are Haro, MP Big Zam and the Prototype Qubeley.
>>23070696
>>23070731Since you already played it. Did anything in this game particularly grabbed your attention? A system, feature or maybe something they seem to still be making.
>>23070747Ah, I haven't played, I wasn't able to get into the beta, I'm just nabbing screens from one of the vids that showed this off, so I'm not able to say much.I'm not well-versed on gacha mechanics myself, but it seems a lot of standard stuff. Pilot abilities, unit types (match the pilot and unit types for boosts), limit breaks for better stats, material gathering, etc. Small chance of capturing certain units when defeated on certain stages (like capturing a Zaku on the first OYW stage).Some units are gacha-exclusive while others can be built up through materials in a tech tree (it's through completing a tech tree that Red Zeta and Casval's Gundam are obtained), and so on.Auto play seems to zip by pretty fast so grinding stages seems like it'll be easy aside from the usual gacha energy caps. Seems like it's decently F2P friendly so far? Not sure. Permanent unit loss isn't a thing, at least, got rid of that from normal G Gen.
>>23070759Cool stuff. Thanks man
>>23070759Huh, now when did these guys pop in, after the beta added SEED's story stages?
>>23070764One thing of note is that at least according to earlier announcements, units will only be gacha exclusive at first before being added to tech trees later. Does the new beta still have the gacha exclusive attacks/artwork?
>>23070837That'd be nice to see if true, I'd enjoy seeing tech trees get even more spread out, I'm a sucker for MSV stuff and the like.There are Gacha-exclusive versions of some units, EX Units, that cover what you're saying, I believe, that come with their own exclusive attack and artwork. So far the EX units shown were Sazabi, Exia, Phoenix (power unleashed) and the original Gundam. The latter is the only case so far of being a duplicate of sorts, since you can get a regular Gundam from the tech tree, but getting the EX Gundam gets you Amuro as a pilot bundled with it, plus its exclusive attack and presumably souped-up stats by comparison.Outside of that, the only exclusives I see in the demo is anything that doesn't have story stages, so everything not OYW, Zeta and SEED related. Though MSV stuff is on the tech trees like MP Big Zam, Prototype Gundam, Gyan K and Eos, etc.
>>23070849Do you have to roll for units and pilots?
>>23070851Units, yeah, pilots you can scout through capital after going through story stages to make them available for purchase.Also my remark from >>23070849 might be wrong about the EX version of Gundam having new art, I'll need to recheck, I was going off the database images I posted, and getting that Gundam mixed up with the Early Type from Origins that's also in-game.
>>23070717>>23070720>no Gerbera Tetra KaiFor fuck's sake.
>>23070851>>23070858You don’t have to roll for units. Theres a vast tech tree per faction of developable and farmable units with their end tier SSRs being better than UR if you stack a dupe or two.
I`m kind of surprised there was no player character, seems like kind of a no brainer for this kind of game.
>>23070912I was under the impression that there were a few units that still weren't apart of those tech trees (aside from the EX version of Gundam) but happy to see I'm wrong.Wonder how they'll expand those trees if they do. Like if they push in a few more units from MSV stuff that would technically go into the OYW tech trees like GM and Zaku variants.
>>23069093>>23069221>WOAH a g-gen game reusing animations? They do this all the time
>>23070937The beta trees are very limited. There are units in the Gacha that don’t show up here. The distinction to make is that Gacha units CANT be developed.
>>23070937>>23071056To add on I did notice this dude in 0079 Hard 2 and he’s not in the Gacha or tech tree
>>23070919Damn, I wanted to make up more stupid Tomino names
>>23071058There's definitely a number of NPC units still in the game, yeah. That guy and Devil Gundam in the opening tutorial, plus some other tutorial-only playable units.Do wonder how long a wait after this closes before we'll see the game, and how many more units it'll have to start with.
>>23071068I also want to say he’s a fucking idiot. He keeps getting into the water to try to shoot my units and halving his damage
>>23069058It IS your typical mobage shovelware.
>>23070849My only experience is from the first CBT, so I could easily be misremembering things, but in that EX units, or whatever they were called, were effectively upgraded versions of the normal suit and if you developed them, you would get an item that you could use to upgrade a normal version into the EX version. The only differences I remember between the versions were the high energy attack, something like 50 EN for 7000 attack, and fancier artwork.
>>23069058This is based on old info, so it may have changed, but according to the devs, units will eventually be obtainable outside of gacha mechanics with the gacha only acting as early access with a potential added attack/art. All unit will also have roughly the same power when fully upgraded so you can use your favorite suits. Overall if things haven't changed, it sounds like you can completely ignore the gacha and still be successful in the game. If it's successful and they are smart about it, they can use this game to build up assets for the next console G Gen.
