Tactics I & II COSMOS finally coming out in March of 2026 after long delays. Will it be worth the wait?

R-Type Delta HD Boosted coming out in November.

Fellow Bydochads, we are eating good.

I don't know what's added in the remake but I really enjoyed r-type tactics 1&2 on psp. There are tons of missions with their own unique battlefields and gimmicks, making it good as a standalone tactics game, and it's incredibly cool to use all these familiar r-type units together as a fleet.

Tactics II is awesome, though the Bydo side in particular suffers from some horrendous balancing decisions. Fingers crossed they resolve it in the remake.

Ah yes, one of my favorite totally not a horror game is getting an HD version.

What do you mean? If anything the first game had poor bydo balance because of the 1-turn charge on Gains and the second game fixed it. I think I used a good variety of units and I liked how different my tactics were while playing bydo compared to the previous GZRA campaign. Although it's been a while since I played it and I can't check my save right now so I might have forgotten something.
I'm worried the remake will add the overpowered units that were formerly DLC, including the 1-turn-charge Gains.

1 turn Gains is probably never coming back, it already exists as an unreleased DLC unit.
Some of the more notable balance issues:
-Boldo’s upgrades being either mid or downright worse.
-Sneks utterly worthless because they only move 1 space a turn, only have a ram attack, and take up 7 hexes.
-Meltcraft Jr, Rebo 2, Bydo flesh balls, Bellmate balls, the ground-pounders - roster is bloated with unusable garbage.
-Gusternet only usable on like 2 stages.
I could go on and on.

Any beginner tips for Tactics? I've been on a PSP emulation binge and I recently found Tactics I sitting on my hard drive since 2022 when I got a bunch of ISOs that I didn't touch until now.
Thanks.

For Tactics 1? It’s not too hard, since the time limits are more lenient. Striders are your friends, have your POW armor follow them around to resupply them, and nuke everything into oblivion. Make ample use of your POW Armor and the Jormungand class’s Decoy functions early on, as the explosion from them is powerful enough to cripple or outright destroy whatever it hits. Your Midnight Eye is indispensable until you get your Drednought Class cruiser, as without it you are practically flying blind, and that is a death sentence when bumping into an enemy you can’t see often means death from wave cannon. Beware that if you fire your wave cannon at a unit that also has its own wave cannon charged, they will counterpunch with their own, causing heavy damage. Also: the AI doesn’t care about friendly fire and will happily fire through its own troops with a wave cannon just to fuck you over.

Tactics II is several magnitudes more difficult because it introduces more strict time limits, nerfs the above cheese strats, and depending on what side you play you’ll be handicapped early on in different ways. Jamming becomes extremely important later in the game, and you are often badly outnumbered and outgunned.

It didn't mention it in the trailer, but is there an option for the original ost? Not that big a deal for me if it doesn't have it because I'm gonna buy it on PC (and can just mod it in if it's missing)
