>>729217286WE (yes WE, collectively, all of us present) will be playing
>>729217286won
The original is better
>>729217286i don`t care
>>729217286i care
>>729217286>game was different from yet another genshin clone slightly with factorio elements>people complained during alpha>now game IS genshin clone with factorio elements Why even bother, just for dumbed down factorio? I don't think so
>>729217286Why is it not on Steam?
>>729217286How is this compared to regular Arknights?
>>729221381What got changed?
>>729221436Regular Arknights is a tower defense game, this one is a 3D action adventure.
>>729217286TDfags really lost bigly here.
>>729221469Give it to me straight. Is it just a Genshin clone?
>>729221459Combat, it was from different JRPG (forgot name) but now it's Genshin combat with ultimate spam
>>729221487yes
It's not like Genshin. Ignore the idiot.
>>729219580Good news for youhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3VMzrBbD0ts
>>729221487It wasnt always but people complained and they made it more like Genshin.
>>729221381But here you can pay an amount equivalent to buying 2-3 AA-class video games and get 3D character models, which is awesome!
>>729221681>>729221591Figured.>>729221646>all those malesI puked a little inside my mouth.If I wanted homolust I'd just go back to playing Genshin.

>>729217286>more unskippable wordvomit for 1/4 of a pull slop
I'm not convinced by what I've seen but I'll try it for this grill.
>>729222172canonically gets her ass grabbed by a furfag, cuck
>>729222228>>729222222She clearly rejected the scaly and craves for monkey (Me) cock .
>>729222228how far gone do you have to be to read what each of them say about the other and unironically think that?
>>729222228>Compliment someone else = cucked/vmg/ is two blocks down buddy
>>729222283shes gonna make fun of you about how it drives you up the wall that she gets groped by other men
depend on how good the first roll isif I get good roll then I might drop ZZZ to play it
>>729222365>Needs an excuse to drop ZZZThere is no saving you
>>729222390its all about RGNI didnt just picked up ZZZI got ellen and rina on very first roll when I pick it upand no other game manage to give me good roll so Im stick with it
>>729217286The prices for donations have already been shown, and they are the most expensive among all other gacha games. The currency is equivalent to 30 or 50 spins, considering the bonuses for the first deposit, which cost $100. Therefore, we take a guarantee for a character there, 140 spins, right? And it turns out that the guarantee costs a round sum, which is equivalent to almost $500. If we don't take into account the extra bonuses and consider the net donation after a couple of months of playing, that is, 30 spins = $100. Just do the math and wake up. These prices are definitely not worth it for this game. And working in the game, vacuuming up 100% of the content, closing everything 100% for 3-5 spins. And one 6* character per patch... Maybe it's okay for kids... Gacha games are dead at the moment, people should pay attention to other adequate projects and systems. And Arknights comes out like a funeral gacha, hammering nails into the coffin lid, so to speak.
>>729222590I don't care what the price is because I'm f2p.
I dont care I dont spend money on gacha
>>729222590They did say that they received many complaints about this shit and other stuff and will adjust it for the release. We'll see if they actually do something or it was just PR shit
>>729222590>donations
I watched a guy play the beta and it looks good. Even as someone who was glazing the game he still said the rate you get pull currency was complete dogshit and the devs need to change it. Either increase rewards or reduce the cost of a pull.
>>729222590I will still play. I can play my gachas as a Dolphin and when you play enough of them it just hits you that there is no point to gamba when your desires are indulged by a different game. The only problem I have is when these games don't let you reroll for an obvious character that will carry you through everything in PvE.
>>729217286Been reading around so it's second hand information and apparently you need 80 pulls to get the 50/50 coinflip and another 40 (so 120 pulls in total) to be guaranteed the rate up BUT it doesn't carry over to the next banner. I don't know how many draws you can get per patch as a f2p but if you don't get enough that'll be a dealbreaker for me because I have gacha fomo fatigue and already quit the other gachas.
>>729222590>>729222806>>729222967>>729222992Yeah that'll be a miss from me if that doesn't change for full release. There are plenty of gacha to play so why the fuck would I put up with one that's stingy? Have to wait and see.
i read this one has no pity between banners? i play blue archive a little because i hate that shit
>>729223139It does up to the 80 coinflip. I think if you pull 80 times you get a 10 pull coupon for the next banner or something like that.
>>729217286>flopfieldenjoy your gacha assetflip#123234346534564356984576
>>729221487Yes.
>>729223180>Pity doesnt carry over between banners but characters can stay available for 3 banner periodsWe'll have to see how that pans out. What will matter is the flow of currency we get.
>>729217286>This shit will make tons of money just off of the Arknights name alone and the TD will get less content and dieIts so over
So what's actually the connection between this and the first Arknights? Cause from what I see the MC and basically every character are different.
>>729223470more like the massive profits from the cheap as fuck TD game are funding Endfield
>>729223470>One less TD game in the worldGood, RTS is the superior genre.
>>729223625RTS is the dead genre, cope
>>729223470Next thing you'll say is that the second that Endfield releases, they'll pull the plug on Arknights
>>729217286what will the gameplay be like? shooter or more td?
>>729223040It would be smart if they focus on a bit of generosity for their gacha system. Their weapon pull system seems to be really good and will already reward + keep whales. They consider themselves the premier for the game play combination they are offering but the fact stands there are too many in the market. If they are projecting high revenue per new character they are going to be EoS by year 1 from not having the population required for it. People aren't exactly going to whale for satisfactory light mode with anime waifu.
>>729223783Standard gacha 3D action adventure.
TDsissies keep losing. Love to see it.
>>729223797if it has the characters from original i will play
>>729223864It won't, it's separate from arknightsIt has expies but otherwise it seems unconnected
Endfield won
I guess I'll give it a try, the art design is pretty slick and parts of the gameplay remind me of Death Stranding.Also, isn't the Arknights franchise supposed to have really strong writing?
>>729223864If it has characters from the original I won't play it.
>>729217380>Yes, I am highly autistic, how could you tell?
i am completely uninterested in playing online only slop, but i am fascinated at how chinese gacha games are basically leading a new renaissance in super high detail 3D anime character modelling, like overwatch did years ago
>open world gacha without the gay fucking character swappingI will give it a try
>>729224090True.
I hope the open world is closer to WuWa than Genshin cause honestly Genshin's open world is a bit too busy workish with how many small but uninteresting things there are to do.
>>729224090I wish Japan would step up and actually try to compete but they seem too keen on releasing low effort slop based off of existing IPs. The only decent game I would say is Relink that did a relatively good job translating the anime aesthetic to 3d.
>>729224203endfield isnt fully open world but smaller open areas if that helps
>>729217286>50/50 hoyocuck (tm) gacha>pity doesn't get carried over to the nextchinkoids took a look at cancer and made it worse
>>729224363>if that helpsIt does, open worlds are antithetical to good game design.
>>729223505Distant future spin-off/sequel to the first game. Several "returning" characters are basically clones of some kind of the og characters in some way. There's some alluding to og characters still being alive and present but I don't think beta has actually shown any, just mentions (Warfarin mainly).
>>729224090Same. And it's bleeding into the singleplayer market so there's an actual bright spot in this grim vidya hellscape.
>>729217286So is Arknights main story getting wrapped up soon? Because keeping the long running Gacha and the Sequel Gacha going at the same time seems like your just cannibalizing your audience.
>>729224534No end in sight for Arknights and considering they are vastly different games they are most likely expecting both different audiences and people playing both. The main concern personally is how enjoyable and unique the game will be compared to every other chink 3D action gacha will be because holy shit am I fucking tired of Genshin and quickswap slop clones.
>>729224534Gachacattle will play both :)
>never played genshit or wuwaI don't have open world fatigue so I should be fine. The character designs are cool.
>>729223783it will be like Granblue Fantasy Relink
>>729223789Yeah honestly I don't see where their confidence is coming fromThe only thing truly state of the art in this game seems to be the character models but even then Wuwa is already extremely good on that point.
>another genshin clone but this time with shitty satisfactory over it>gameplay will never be anything beyond numbers cause its a mobile game so retards can play it>can watch the porn without playing itwhy are people excited for this again
I guess I'll give it a shot. I like the idea of the whole squad being on field at the same time and I really fucking hate the quickswapping shit genshin popularized
>>729225114The yurikino possibilities of course
>>729217286Why is Surtr called Laevatian now?Why is Angelica called Gilberta now?Why is Eyjafawhatever called Ardelia now?
>>729225816Dont think about it too much
>>729225816Simple answer: clones.Longer answer, characters in AK usually used codenames rather than their real names in Rhodes Island but the company in Endfield is not Rhodes Island and as such different names/codenames. As an added note, Laevateinn was the name of Surtr's sword in AK so relatively low effort name change and since she's a sarkaz she may or may not be the og Surtr.
Does the satisfactory mode have any tower/horde defense elements or is it production only? That seems like it would be a natural progression from Arknights
>>729226323There are tower defense quests.
>>729226323I still have no idea how Factory sim gameplay is going to mesh with open world Genshin gacha shit. Like what kind of goals would you even have? Would you need to wait literal days to produce enough shit you'd need?
Only reason I would be interested in this game is because it doesn't have the god awful character swap cancer all other 3d gacha got
>>729226218huge win for surtrchads if she's the same one btw, they were always the biggest cuckolds around
>>729224092It has character swapping
which character should i fap to when the game comes out
>99% of all effort and budget went into characters>gameplay is barebones action genshinI understand that characters is what they are selling but come on
>>729217286yaas, can't wait to do the dailies for this onehope it only takes 5 minutes cause I play 6 other gachas
>>729229543they spent 90% of the budget overanimating retarded character animations on a menu.the factorio shit isn't even going to be good, you all have the same base and some autist will min/max the setup on day 1 and they made it easy to share loadouts so everyone will run the exact same setups.
>>729225114I'm playing Arknights, so I want to see what they wasted all the revenue on. I doubt I will play more than a few hours of it.
>>729225816Shitty rewrite to accomodate a connection between their gachas. Technically not a retcon either, just a really bullshit addition to existing Arknights lore.>why do they want to make the popular characters appear in their uninspired genshit clone?We will never know...It's funny how they never realized why their gacha got popular, yet another company who had success by accident.
>>729217286>rolls don't carry over to the next banne-kek eat my ass chinkfool me once but imagine going backwards on the thing your game is built around
>>729232710Just don't roll on banners without enough for pityJk it's really shitty
