It's the 8th year for the Private Military Union to resort to war in their mobile suit from the saga of Universal Century by celebrating the climax of the final major war of the late era in UC.The 8th Anniversary Celebration Campaign will begin with the most powerful MS from Mobile Suit Victory Gundam. The MS to begin the 8th year is the combined Assault and Buster parts for V2 Gundam to aid Uso in his showdown in the Battle of Angel Halo; V2 Assault Buster Gundam is this year's Anniversary MS. The second MS to follow is one of Zanscare's last MS during the Battle of Angel Halo, Gottrlatan piloted Katejina Loos, is set for next week.Many rewards, missions, step-ups, and new MS are set for this month.

On the horizon after the 8th year of GBO2, a tale of the Dark History begins.
>>23947923>AU grunts are NOW INthey better add Death Army real fastalso tanks for the bread
>>23947882>I’m actually curious if they’re gonna give it that massive beam cannon or if it’s too big for itWell, judging from what it looks like from the livestream, it looks to have the beam cannon fold and will be a stop to fire weapon.
>>23947926Hate to burst your bubble, but Turn A is Tomino and, by default, connected to UC, which is why we have suits such as Capule, I mean, Kapool, as well as Zaku, I mean, Borjarnon, be part of UC and CC. You could argue Seed also has Zakus, but they only share the name and barely look like the UC counterparts.
>>23947940Good luck convincing Bandai that.
>>23947942I don't need to, since even you can name all the AU grunts that appear in games with one hand when compared to Turn A. In short, I won't hold my breath since Kapools wouldn't count as a grunt, as the green is always paired with the Red and isn't piloted by no-names iirc.
>>23947947>green is always paired with red>always paired
Are supports and generals completely extinct now? First few games I've played after a 2+ year break were 5 raids vs 5 raids
>>23947986raids are only op in 750slop, why would you even play an underdeveloped cost like that?
>>23947991I was playing 350
>>23947998Probably meme teams.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_G2pXhBnEv0&t=335shttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b08J1E4sjvM
>>23947998350 has sliferail and sleevesgoog which can easily stand up to hover gouf
what do I slap onto Agguguy?
I can't stand these fucking high cost rated throwersThere are multiple MS in the DP shop if you don't have the latest meta that can still put up a good fight but instead they bring in absolute garbageDO NOT use the base Gundam Zeta at 700,I wasn't paying attention when I readied and thought it was 3A, instead why not use the Sinaju or at least Gundam Delta Kai?In the future when the game enters EoS make it so we can kick people from lobby for doing this kind of shit.
if we ever get a gbo3 I hope they're smart enough to add crossplay
>>23948118Noticed that I typed this while angry and it reads like I sortied as the Zeta Gundam at 700Just to be clear it was my teammate, would be weird if someone was complaining about themselves
Supply Drop MS Requesthttps://bo2.ggame.jp/jp/special/msrequest/https://docs.google.com/forms/u/0/d/14QfVFc4CsxTrtllANffojS1LFKDGI6iIgQ2TRwiLQcA/viewform?edit_requested=trueI'm surprised Clan MS are included.
>>23948149Probably saw some streamer put up big numbers in it and they're trying that
It's hard to see this reference and not think EoS is coming.
>>23947935Huh I honestly forgot it was a folding type rather than some massive cannon it brings out like the mega bazooka launcher.
anons from this thread?
>>23948268Hey, I saw that Aluha guy in a match yesterday.
I don't get transforming suits, when do you turn into a plane? Catching enemies? Always got knocked down whenever I transformed my suit.
>>23948331well i haven't seen him before so I was wondering if he was from here or if he was someone I bootyblasted
>>23948338i don't play many waveriders myself but the general gist is>transform when you spawn to cross large distances with maximum thruster economy>try to avoid flying in open spaces because it is piss easy to predict where you go since you have limited turning speed and can only go forwards, even when holding crouch to slow down (holding crouch makes you turn faster btw so use it for the occasional risky 180)>generally, every waverider works by just pump and dumping their entire transformed arsenal into the enemy. don't be afraid to overheat any of the guns so you can deal maximum damage to the enemy>try to tacklebait (tackles knock you down) people so you can safely detransform and subsquently use those 7s you just bought yourself to annihilate thembasically, it's an opening tool to rush people down, or a movement tool to get yourself over large spaces, but knowing when to abuse it is the tricky part. i don't like waveriders myself, Delta Kai Ground Type is the only one I tolerate for the most part because his style is>transform, put out bolt, dump arsenal, ram for 3000+blast bolt damage, leave
>>23948338>>23948344Trasformers were better I think in a time when buildstun wasn't so readily available for almost everything. It's too easy to just break the shock dampeners at almost any time on them now
>>23948350nevermind the buildstun, every support has a pocket heavy now
>>23948344That's the thing, I thought I can get away quickly after dumping my shit on an enemy and fuck off somewhere or maybe run away when some raid monkeys are boosting towards my ass when I'm playing a support, but they are barely better than boosting without transforming. I swear the speed on Gaza E's waverider form is as slow as boosting on MS form. Wonder if playing them in space is any better.>>23948350Fucked up game design due to powercreep then?
>>23947923>>23947926>Gulp Shitto>:(>Gulp Shitto AU: D
>>23948357>support waveriderthere's your issue, yellows don't get shocks in waverider mode, one stun knocks you
>>23947923>Turn A gundam stuffGame is near EOS.I will save the tokens for Turn A.
>>23948370Fucking hell, why are supports so cucked? I don't remember SDGO Capsule Fighter being this bad with the RPS.
>>23948118>NOOOO DON'T PLAY THE GAME IF YOU DON'T OPEN YOUR WALLET TO BUY THE META THINGPeople should play the game whatever the way they want.If you are angry about people playing with bad units, then complain to BB and their low gacha rates.
>>23948379>OPEN YOUR WALLET>Free to play currency you get over time>Units available to everyoneLearn to read
>>23948378Someone has to do suffer. And Raids already pay taxes to the Generals.
>>23948137>implying they’re going to create more PC gundam games after gundam evo floppedThey’re going all in on mobileslop and arcades I’m pretty sure
>>23947923>>23948246>>23948375I normally don't take EoS posters seriously, but isn't it a thing for Gundam games with added content to end whenever Turn A gets added? I don't play many Gundam games any kind of gacha or dlc to it to know.
>>23948460by all accounts, GBO2 PC was a success, even with the rocky ass shit launchyou'd think that after that disastrous launch, they'd just can it and move on? no they continued because it made them a shitload of money>>23948461it's a meme
>>23948378Supposedly it's an overcorrection from GBO1 where supports were king, but i never played it so I'm just repeating the meme.It kind of makes sense since supports have type advantage against generals which are intended to be the most common role, so you almost kind of want to make them a little shitty on purpose if they get a damage/defense boost against the kind of suit most people are going to play. Same could be said for raid being historically overtuned because they have the opposite relationship with generals.I think part of the problem is that power creep has just removed a lot of the weaknesses non-supports had over time. Like the "rock paper scissors" of the balance other than the damage/defense bonuses were originally that generals had rolls, raids had maneuver armor and supports had better stun options. So raids could more easily approach supports but were vulnerable to getting mobbed by generals and generals could more easily be kept at bay by supports. Now basically all raids have dodges and most generals have MA and basically everything has MA break options and chain stuns now.
>>23948495>Supposedly it's an overcorrection from GBO1 where supports were kinga mythgens were the most OP shit in GBO1, anything with the gelgoog jager BR was fucked, and tetra was just nuts tooanything that heavy staggers in GBO2 used to DOWN in GBO1 (zudah, desert GM, gatsha)literally every insta-down gun in GBO1 was on a gen lmao
Why are Supports aren't allowed to be meta? Is there Japan side of things hates them so the devs nerf any support that ends up being too good or make them average in such a way that you're better off with a gen/raid team at S higher?
There are meta Supports just not at 700 and 750
>>23948539imagine a match where the only way to play was to play your super long range unit with infinite ammo that basically instakills anything that dares approach you but also heavy staggers everyone (super gundam)
How to make supports viable:Give evasive manuever to all of them.And allow them to use melee while boosting.Also give them melee combo lv2.And a few more close range slots for custom parts.
>>23948556I want Observational Data Link LV2 to be exclusive to SupportsLet LV2 show the suppression buildup of an enemy MS like it shows in free practice, it's already a feature in game the devs just need to slap it on multiplayer, also give it additional rangeThe last big ask is for Observational Data Link to be removed from Generals and Raids or to at least not put it on anymore, really kills the whole point of having a Support if a Raid or General can do the same thing but be better.
>>23947905Whoever decides the Giveaway MS needs to have their hands chopped off.What is this outdated garbage?
>>23948461gundam evolution doomed its fate by having turn a in the initial roster
>>23948592Gundam Evo was doomed for the start for bring a hero shooter in an age where Overwarch stopped being popular.
>>23948603overwatch 2 and marvel rivals are doing really well. gunevo just needed to slap tits and asses on their suits.if was a mecha musume, it would still be alive.
Gundam Evolution was doomed by having a greedy gacha system with terrible cosmetics, not allowing grunt units to be selected multiple times (GM's, Zaku's, and Dom's), and trying to inject itself into an extremely competitive market late.
>>23948592It doomed its fate by having the worst cosmetic options ontop of a hideously mundane art style.Also the word filter was absolutely fucking retarded.
>>23948634Oh ma, imagine if GBO2 had a retarded word filter, that would really suck...
>>23948638BB did one better, you staright up can't use chat outside of custom lobbies before the match starts lmao
>>23948638How bad are the chat restrictions on PC?
>>23948659they're the same filters i think, probably some standard EN filters that bandai has access toknight gets turned into k***ht for example
>>23948659>>23948662They also censor literally anything with "av" in it
>>23948679god only knows why
>>23948682>>23948679Because of JAVs.
>>23948621>>23948634It was actually doomed because of ridiculous region restrictions and broken ranked on NA side that killed any momentum the game could've had
>>23948718Bamco's Gundam game division consistently has a wonky perspective on the US side and often treats them as second-class citizens at best. Take >>23948150 for example and notice what region is missing on the MS request form.
>>23948721>top options are spicks and seamonkeys>then either chinks/nips or sandniggers>followed by abbos and muhammadsjesus christ
>>23948721Bandai hates Americans, we never had this problem when they were just Namco
>>23948731They hate Americans but they love American money.
>>23948735I wish I could find that meme picture of the guy putting a stick in his bike wheels then blames the bike for his fall, only the guy is bamco, the stick is "bad marketing practices" and at the end they go "The West just doesn't care about Gundam!"
>>23948740I got you, senpai.
>>23948753Holy shit, you are a real one my guy. Any time we talk about Gundam games and Bamco, this picture should always be present.
>lobby with cost I like>up 6 more minutes>lobby with cost I hate>next two hoursWhy is it like this?
>>23948718It was doomed because the hero shooter genre isn't compatible with gundam. Let me play my fucking robot, don't lock me out of it because some other fag locked it in first.
>>23948766So you are saying they should have went with the Starwars Battlefront(preferably, not EA version) approach?
>>23948767Wasn't gundam online or whatever it was called basically that? That ran for years.
>>23948721There's also Japan version has no clan MS for request in the roster but English version is in the roster and you can vote multiple times.
>lock in Ingrid Gunner on a map and cost its not suited for>feedwhy?
Unpopular Opinion:Flap Booster during invincibility should be given the same rules as transforming
Unpopular Opinion:Old Custom Parts should be removed from recon crates and added to the DP shopThese items are too important to the game to leave to chance
There's something kind of sad to the most useless faggot on the team comm spamming like he's not the one dying every 20 seconds.
>>23947923I'm going to save every single token for Ɐ now I guess
>>23949027ALL custom parts should be added to the DP after about 6 months from their release
>>23948461Gundam Online died with a Turn A vs Turn X gacha, so they played into the meme.
How's Advanced Hazel nowadays? I still remember when it's one of the most menacing suit in its cost.
>>23949289I haven't seen one in like two years even after it got buffed late last year. That should tell you everything.
>>23949289Speaking of Hazel, Hazel II is a 500 gen for the guaranteed 72 Hour step-up.
>>23949297No... it's my favorite suit to stunlock motherfuckers back in the day...>>23949314Always confuses me for a bit when people mentioned Hazel II since there are two suits with that same name.
Can someone tell me what suit this is?
>>23949331engage zero yonfavin
>>23949334thanks
TG3 or Freedom?
>>23949390apples to oranges, tg3 is a melee monkey suit, freedom is shootybut freedom in this case
>>23949326>Always confuses me for a bit when people mentioned Hazel II since there are two suits with that same name.BB likely forgot it exists because nobody is playing it. No doubt they'll notice and might change the name to Gundam TR-6 or call it Hazel II [TR-6].
>>23948268decided to accept them both into the clan since we have space, but if the time comes that someone else comes forward proper, they'll be removed first to make space if there aren't any inactives.welcome ig if you are in this thread, PvtAluhaAcckbaar and notmylegsplease.
Whens Wing Zero TV release?
>>23949479SoonTM
The V2AB is still just the PRE-Anniversary MS right?I'm thinking of saving for whatever the anniversary MS is going to be, especially if it's the DX. Only have about 59 atm.
>>23949531no, next week starts anniv proper
Anniversary banners are usually related to the series of the title suit
>>23949541can you please stop being retarded?
>The V2AB is still just the PRE-Anniversary MS right?https://bo2.ggame.jp/en/info/?p=192261
>>23947893>>23947896I'm pretty sure it's what happened with MSGO. They started adding AU suits and ended with Turn A.
