The 40th Anniversary Gundam game livestream, which featured the history of Gundam games, has ended, and with it revealed the future of Gundam Battle Operation. After 8 years, Gundam Battle Operation 3 is announced for PS5 and Stream. Features such as toggleable cross play, 9v9, mobile hacking, and SP Skills are some that have been revealed so far. A Japanese Early Network Test is set for players on 11/20 and 11/22, and an open Network Test will be announced at a later date. To celebrate, the GBO3 Announcement Celebration Campaign has begun for GBO2, featuring Material Enhancement Campaign special banners and a preview of all MS available in November. Last week's MS was SNR experimental F99, featuring the Minovsky Drive System and Wings of Light. Record Breaker is here for 650 cost. This week's MS is the third Crossbone that drifted to space for 20 years; as the other unit outside of X3, Crossbone Gundam X-0 arrives for 700 cost.Next week's MS will be from Victory, Bruckeng, as well as Later UC MS to arrive for GBO3's celebration campaign.

>>24062421>announced for PS5 and StreamSteammuwhat are you guys thinking for realistic release dateearly 2027?

So now that GBO3 is official, what are your hopes for it next year? What UC and AU MS will we get for the first year? Will you fully migrate from GBO2? Will it perform better or worse than what we already have? Either way, this will be the online Gundam game that has plans for a huge assortment of suits to choose from for online battle.
Soon.
>>24062472On one hand it's UE5 slop, on the other it's built from the ground up for PS5 at the very least if not also PC seeing as it's going to have a simultaneous release, no longer restricted by last genI think overall it's going to be a improvement with gameplay changes, dedicated servers, role queue, etc.but on performance I'm 50/50, could go either way
MS Sibat “Retaliation” buffs■Adjusted MS◎Team A・GM Sniper II Greater MS spec・Silver Haze Custom Greater MS spec・High Boost GM Greater MS specFixes◎Units・Fixed an issue with the “Gyan Kai” where, under certain circumstances, the shield model would remain visible in the battlefield after the unit was destroyed.・Fixed an issue with the “Prototype MD Unit Control System” skill in the unit “Record Breaker”, under certain circumstances, the Wings of Light would fail to damage enemy units or stagger them.※Please note that this fix will slightly change the behavior when the skill effect ends.・Fixed an issue with the “Prototype MD Unit Control System” skill in the unit “Record Breaker”, where the skill could become available for reuse sooner than its intended cooldown time after the skill effect ended.・Updated the description of the “Prototype MD Unit Control System” skill in the “Record Breaker” to clarify that using a tackle reduces the skill’s duration.・Fixed an issue with the “Burning Gundam” where the Spirit Gauge would sometimes fail to increase correctly when performing melee attacks under certain circumstances.・Fixed an issue where the MS rarity of the “Delta Gundam LV4” differed between its normal and transformed forms.◎Custom parts・Updated the description of the “Mystery Electronic Circuit” custom part to clarify that it is not subject to the “Cannot be equipped simultaneously” restriction that applies to certain other custom parts.・Fixed an issue with the “Mystery Electronic Circuit” so that a message log is now displayed when its effect changes during battle.◎Skills・Fixed an issue where the sound effect for ‘Max Output’-type skills was not playing before the effect duration ended.https://bo2.ggame.jp/en/info/?p=200575
>>24062439Some old crap nobody wants.Can't they just put all the 3 stars from 3 months+ ago on the DP shop?Nobody wants some 700 cost shit unicorn that can't fly.If they at least gave the flap booster to all the unicorns, it would be great.
>ANOTHER crossbones gundam when there's already like 7 I guess broIf they didn't all look the same it'd be way more exciting
>>24062479>UE5 slopUE5 comes with a very good multiplayer netcode.All they have to do is use it the right way (separate what runs on client, what runs on server, and what duplicates from server to client, what is sent to everybody or only one player).
>>24062500>UE5 comes with a very good multiplayer netcode.and horrible performance otherwise
Finally getting to the cool shit from Late UC, and then its going to be out for... more OYW with gay dogs from SEED. Not the best launch roster.
>>24062501>and horrible performance otherwiseOnly if they abuse the poly count and the textures.Otherwise it runs pretty fast (with hardware raytrace disabled).
>>24062494>Can't they just put all the 3 stars from 3 months+ ago on the DP shop?How else can they bloat the gacha pools while also not making it packed with lvl3 and lvl4 drops?>>24062499>If they didn't all look the same it'd be way more excitingTo be fair, Unicorn also has the same people and that also has like 7 in the game.
do you think in GBO3, they'll allow for shoulder switching views
>>24062511Yeah, UE5 demands a lot from developers. It seems less outright bad and more that it's very punishing of poor technical or artistic decisions.Which I suppose still means it's bad as a product, but not quite in the sense of 'you cannot make a good title with it'.Not sure what else Bamco's done lately with it but Project Aces just shipped Ace Combat 8 on UE5, which looks great and runs pretty good for most people. Not a lightweight title but it actually runs like it should if you have the hardware. AC Online is also very similar to Battle Operation to the point it wouldn't shock me if teams were talking. Technically PA is external now but I'd be surprised if they hadn't shared some technical experience.
>>24062525>AC Online is also very similar to Battle Operation to the point it wouldn't shock me if teams were talking. Honestly they're so similar I still think that ACO was supposed to be free to play at one point. I also feel like it's being used to test the features GBO3 will have, which is an intetresting choice.
>>24062520They should. No more retarded nascar.
When will they give us char's zaku II from the origin?
>>24062535hopefully never, no more Charslop
>>24062531>ACO was supposed to be free to play at one pointI think it might be the opposite, doing this as a soft launch to offer it as a standalone F2P title later if it goes as planned.Shipping 8 without any MP when every game since 6 has had it while also charging current AAA prices would be a great way to get some bad press, even if most core AC fans wouldn't mind at all. Shipping 8 with a basic online suite and then launching the GBO/Infinity inspired Online some time later as an F2P title would leave you splitting your player base and probably more questions from the audience about which title is getting the focus post-launch and which is getting ignored.There's also the chaotic option of releasing ACO as a standalone before 8, but even if that shipping timetable was possible I don't think they would've wanted to take the focus away from their baby, or any of the sheen taken off the technical achievement ahead of time. Or to field questions about why they spent time on this and not finishing 8 faster.If it was intended to be F2P but axed, I think they would've reworked it to feel less F2P and possibly even ditched the distinct branding.Or shit, maybe PA really did just want to make it like this purely as a component of 8. Xenoblade 2 is a completely microtransaction-free, story driven, singleplayer, flagship first party JRPG and it has a fucking gacha system just because Monolithsoft thought it might be fun. Sometimes devs just do shit.>test the features GBO3 will haveAnything stand out to you in particular as a dry run?
>>24062500So it's possible GBO3 will still be P2P?
>>24062558>So it's possible GBO3 will still be P2P?they mentioned it'll have proper servers, which makes sense considering GBO3 will be made for an international audience from the get-go while GBO2 was originally meant to be Japan only and a LOT of the game's quirks make more sense when you keep that in mind, both in regards to gameplay and how the game handles networking
>>24062566>they mentioned it'll have proper serverssomehow I missed that, when did they say it?
>>24062566Does the new ace combat and ACO use servers as well?
>>24062555>Anything stand out to you in particular as a dry run?Mainly the lobby layout and the store. It has the gacha for random cosmetics but every plane bar the Morgan can be bought with earnable ingame currency, including upgraded parts. The practice option could also be in GBO3 somehow to test mobile suit builds and shit. Hell maybe they'll throw in PVE raids too.
