HEY BILL!

So was the Star Wolf fight on Venom easier than the 64 version or was I just a retarded underageb& all those years ago?

>>742300207
It took you over 20 years to realize you're supposed to spam lasers instead of charged shots since they're programmed to barrel roll whenever you try to use those.

>>742300207
both

who the fuck ever fought star wolf with charged shots?

>>742300207
Your companions are a bit less of a dead weight and may deal some chip damage to Star Wolf when they're not being chased but the fight itself is not noticeably different aside from the frame rate and controls being smoother.

>>742298361
How is he so fucking cool?

>>742300207
64 version is VERY easy once you understand what you're fighting.

They also skipped on a major important piece of Fox's motivation. He became a mercenary because he wanted justice for his father and thought that the Cornerian military was not taking the threat seriously enough, so he dropped out of the academy when he turned 18 and inherited his father's ship. And then, sure enough, Andross invaded the Lylat system and Star Fox was needed. In the remake he just wants money and kind of sleepwalks his way into pursuing Andross rather than being on a personal crusade of any kind.

A bunch of gullible twats were making an sharing fan theory videos because they actually thought there were going to be some earth-changing revelations in SF26 like James McCloud still being alive or some shit like that. There were some annoying changes they made but none of them deserved massive theorycrafting videos or anything like that.

I liked the original Star Fox and how it hinted that James McCloud disappeared near a black hole. It's vague and mysterious enough that whatever you can imagine happened to James is more interesting than having it spelled out to the player. Having Pigma betray James is also a good story beat either combined with or independent of the black hole incident, but in any case, the way they showed Pigma's betrayal was not handled in an interesting or satisfying way. They basically borrowed one of the Order 66 deaths from Star Wars and did it in a less intense or dramatic way.

A Fox In Space, a fan work, handled Pigma's betrayal in a much better way. And again, James' death is ambiguous, but whatever fate the imagination comes up with is way better than something as bland as "he probably got shot down but we don't know."

I like new Fox more
he's kind of a shithead and I like it
if they do more games then he has time to grow into old Fox
but for now he's 18, he's got a massive debt unless Pepper's pay out will cover the cost of the Great Fox, and he was a little tired of hearing stories about how cool James was from Peppy
but then the game happens, he grows into a better leader and maybe he understands James a bit more.

Is there a recomp of 64 yet? I have a dire need to replay it.

>>742309960
Makes sense, Star Wars, and Star Trek to a lesser extent, were always big inspirations for the games.

>If you suspend a campaign run, the stage you're at will be shown out the window of the Great Fox
Nice touch.

Been cleaning up Expert Mode medals. Just Titania and Sector Z left then never touching Expert again outside of challenge mode sifne the wings breaking so easily is annoying.

If they make a brand new sequel, I want them to go nuts with the split paths, cameos, and general choices and consequences. Could we get another 1 hour arcade game with tons of replayability made with this kind of budget in this day and age?

>>742301309
I saw a claim that your allies become the rival pursuer once you knock their rival below half health and I have spotted that. Honestly the allies are too good on Sector Z, fuckers keep stealing my missile kills when I need them for challenge mode and medals. Have to do a expert run using the Sector X warp just so Katt doesn't help.

>>742311053
But more points though.
GOD FUCK I KEPT GETTING CLIPPED IN AREA 6 BY STUPID BULLSHIT AND I AM NEVER DOING VENOM 2 WITHOUT HYPERS AGAIN FUUUUCK.

Can't wait for the sequel- in which it's revealed the Krazoa were evil the entire time and try and take over the universe like they were supposed to do in Dinosaur Planet.

>>742311113
>Could we get another 1 hour arcade game with tons of replayability made with this kind of budget in this day and age?
No, lol.

Next game will be a re-imagined mish-mash of Adventures and Assault.

>>742311158
They did that shit in the original too. But they can't help if they're already being chased. Only problem is that being able to see so clearly on Sector Z means that it's weirdly easy to clear out every single enemy in the level now and then you're competing with four other ships for the last three missiles.
Medal's a breeze now that you can actually see the Hit + 2 space junk though.

>Fox accidentally shoots down a Cornerian fighter
NOT A LOT OF LOYALTY FOR A HIRED GUN!

>>742305340
It's not that random. Everyone marks a specific target and Wolf always marks you. After grinding out the miserable Expert challenges for Venom 2, it becomes pretty clear exactly how the fight works. Take out Wolf immediately and it becomes incredibly smooth sailing.

>>742311262
Don't do this to me man. I want to believe. I feel like this kind of experience could be extremely popular again. Look at a game like Slay the Spire.

Star Fox Assault had balls. It gave the series a direction that it had room to grow in and Nintendo decided to skip an entire console generation for the IP because they couldn't decide who to bum the series off on and they didn't want to dedicate a first party studio to a Star Fox game.

>>742300207
Starfox 64 version was much easier than this one. They changed the AI which doesn't let me cheese through em.

>>742311573
If nintendo really wanted to make another foot shooter they should save that for kid icarus uprising 2 and star fox can remain an on the rails shooter.

They didn't barrel roll charged shots. They simply had a shield that was 100% immune to charge shots & bombs.
They simply barrel rolled once at the beginning of your regular shots, requiring you to consistently hold them in your sites & fire on them rather that get a lucky shot on them once in a while if you play like a sperg.
Really, once you understand that all this means is "chase an enemy down until he's dead" it becomes much easier.

I only recently (within the last three years) finally did the alternate path in Star Fox 64. I always thought you had to somehow force your way into the waterfall on Corneria by flying into it, I never knew you just had to fly under all those earthen archway.

I played Star Fox 64 thousands of times as a kid and thought I was the expert at Star Fox 64 but I literally never figured out how to reach the other alternate planets aside from the obvious ones like the Meteor field, the Independence Day themed level, etc.

It took me 26 years to get to the true ending of Star Fox 64.

>>742313801
Probably they want the Tone to be a mite more serious in case they get to make another game with (hopefully ideally) a new plot for the first time since Command.
New villain, more character interaction, maybe new planets, new mechanics, actually substantially building the world and setting etc.
Well, one might hope anyway.
A less pretentious would be they just wanted the game to be more "adult" since fans of the 64 game must generally be largely in their 30s or 40s by now.
