Just bought dlx version to support these guys and to host the dlc.Will buy the Deluxe Edition in the next hour :) Can't wait to see insane online players again. I played 4.1 online for hundreds of hours and there was one guy pulling me through almost every level on inferno difficulty. Often we all died early in some missions and he went on, doing it all alone by himself, while we were watching our dead character on screen for like 30 minutes, lol. Dude had millions of HP.
You need some good crowd control skills on the harder difficulties. I love it.

While I don't think EDF needed a tutorial either, your handler's indifferent attitude to the growing chaos around you and the soldiers commentary in the first mission was amusing enough to warrant the inclusion.
I could only play the first two missions, as my son wants to co-op the entire game. He was already asleep when it released, and he'd kill me if I got more than a few levels in without him. I did like the ranger squad you ended up with - I kinda hope they're the same squad you're with for the rest of the game, just to keep the humor consistent.
EDF 4 / 2025 was the only one that launched multiplatform. 1 was PS2 exclusive. 2 launched on the PS2 and later got ported to the PSP and Vita. 3 was 360 exclusive, and later got ported to the Vita. (Well, I suppose there was also Insect Armageddon, but that was from a western dev and doesn't count.)
Why not sprint on R1 and zoom on L3 with weapon switch on L1? I've also remapped Wingdiver's evasion roll to R1.I definitely recommend remapping sprint from l3 to touchpad press. That way you can still steer the camera while sprinting, and not have to hold down l3 which is the worst.
I really wish there was a toggle option on sprint.
No they weren't. I assume the titles on Xbox 360 weren't selling that well, otherwise
if you find the same weapon again, there is a chance for this weapon to get better ( "up" a level ), every weapon can increase its stats, up to the max amount of stars in each stat.What does the UP mean after each level next to some weapons on the results screen? Also what do the stars and numbers mean? Some stars are filled and some aren't.
Yeah they never should have showed footage of IR before launching 5. Big mistake. I'm also waiting.i've played 3 previous EDF games. they were fun in co-op, but after seeing Iron Rain coming next year i think i'm waiting for that.
Iron Rain seems to have finally updated EDF graphics, and the whole vibe feels like a much needed refresh.
Quite sure that's the Asian-English version, make sure set up an SG psn account so you get to buy the DLC when they come outDamn, seems like there actually is a physical version with english texts!
Why did no one told me?! Lol.
Time to double dip!

Is it ... is it me or does the game feel a bit slower ? I can't put my finger on it why but EDF 4.1 feels so much smoother even on the PS4pro. Also the beginning missions are just not that fun to play. Plus now we have limitations on how you cannot have the same weapon twice. Except on the Fencer, which is dissapointing for me cause I loved double bombing the shit out of things as an Air Raider. I played seven mission or eight, but it feels a bit lack luster for some reason. The voice acting is a bit meh, and the action at this point just feels a bit okayish. Will continue later. Still a fun videogame, but a few things feel off.
I think that got added in 2 Vita because the Air Raider now has strikes that don't need kills to recharge and keep recharging when not equipped.Plus now we have limitations on how you cannot have the same weapon twice.

Not a fan of how vehicles seem to be more of an "ultimate" in this game rather than a primary play mode for the Air Raider, they're not powerful enough to warrant that rarity. Vehicles were the main source of variety for that class.
The frog dismemberment mechanics are straight out of Zangeki no Reginleiv though, except you don't get separate loot for different limbs. And the EMC looks like the beam cannon vehicle(/transforming mecha) from Chou Soujuu Mecha MG.

Kill credit doesn't get split up, all credit based gear gets full credit for every kill AFAIK.And yeah, if you spam air strikes it takes a long time to get vehicles ready, I can still always spawn 2-3 mechs in some of the bigger missions (I'm on mission 11 now) and I don't think that this was different in EDF4.1.
It's seems my game is stuck at the downloading mission does it taking long normal or not?
Oh so how to do pause in game I don't see an option for it?Pause/Unpause your download and that should clear the trick. Game downloaded fast for me and friends who have been playing it.

Replayed the first 11 missions and went ahead a few more as we brought on our 3rd player. The new humanoid frog enemies are a blast (heh heh) to fight. I love sneaking up on them and unloading with a shotgun. It's so neat to see this enemy have it's legs blown off and then try to still attack me while not being able to stand. Great addition to enemy list.
I like mech games, can someone explain how mechs work in this ? I've never played the series.

Are the season pass worth the money? Conflicted between regular and digital premium edition.
I believe you have to finish the game (on any difficulty) for the higher difficulties to unlock.Hah, yeah we got to those frog dudes last night and they are a lot of fun. Certainly surprising when I've blown the legs off one and then realize it's laying there still shooting me, good times.
Anyone know how you unlock the higher difficulties?

You sure? That sounds like the DLC weapons from previous games which were starter tier weapons.*12 variations of additional weapons and support arms that will boost the power of each of the ground troops
^Pretty much makes deluxe essential if you're in it for the long-game
Eh, having extra loot for DLC missions seems normal (just consider it an expansion pack then), especially since their titles suggest that they are harder than the base game. It sounds like those missions will be for sale separately too.To clarify, the highest level (100+) weapons only drop in the DLC missions.
