OK, going off that Sandrock has the same combos as GV, but a different set of specials. I can work with that.
Holy WHOA. Even just the options available is stunning compared to GVS. This game has so much damn style!
Oh no I have to unlearn step dive

Yeah, no step dive is confusing me lol. What do I do if I'm in the air: just hope I don't get hit before I land?
Also, if there's anyone who is new or rusty to the series, (I'm certainly the latter lol), you can set the CPU to inactive in Free Battle, if you want to get a grip of the controls before jumping straight into a fight.
Alrighty so I began this beta with a network penalty lol like seriously right out the start screen
And there were two disconnects which I'm pretty sure wasn't me cause we were winning and they added on to the penalty that I shouldn't have had in the first place
Game is fantastic but they gotta get that penalty system under control

Other than the being slapped with a penalty when starting the game, playing in donkeys group has been flawless
I'm stuck for another 7. :(
BTW is there any kind of tutorial or are you thrown right into matches? If they throw you to the wolves then I apologize to anyone I get paired with, I'm gonna be really rusty.

They actually give you free battle, so if you wanna get feet wet with cpus you can. I recommend it because there is def major differences with certain suits between this and full boost.
Never played FB, just VS Force and Versus. But I'll definitely start with free battle to get into the groove.

Not jazzed about the loss of moves and the increased jaggies but I guess it's to be expected going backwards. Guess I thought VS was a smaller extension of this, but turns out it added a lot more.
Local co-op saves it though.

Its been awhile since I had access to the suits I felt I was the best with in the previous games before Gundam Versus. So getting back in the groove with Blue Destiny Unit 1 and Zaku 2 kai has been interesting. I've got Zaku down much faster because everyone seems to like to rush in thus far and they have not accounted for Santa. It is strange that the 2 units I used the most in Gundam Versus don't seem to be in here? If they are I could not find Burning's GM and Throne Zwei.
I panic sometimes in situations where I should be punishing a landing, especially when I'm in point blank range lol.
I don't really mind the loss of Throne Zwei since he's such a core part of Throne Drei's moveset. They gutted her way too hard in GVS for strikers.
There's a pretty steep learning curve, so just keep at it. The most efficient way to move is to boost dash then hop. It lets you move a good distance while also giving you some options to use another maneuver (step, another hop, guard) before landing if necessary. Just make sure to always be ready to hit the button.
Starting out, try to focus on shooting when you see your enemy going to land from the air while the lock-on reticule is red. Targeting is something that just takes some experience to really get used to, but you can usually just lock to the one closest and swap if nothing is really happening to see what's going on.
Game has some very light execution so just focus on the basics and get a feel for your suit's tools and when you should use them. Things feel weird at first but it'll feel really natural after you start playing more.
Gotta disagree here dude
VS may have been prettier, but the only reason people gained moves is to make up for the deletion of entire characters from the roster in the first place: like the Blue Destiny units. Here we get all the suits in VS plus the ones that shouldn't have left in the first place.
Like the only downside I can think of is the graphics.
Was kinda hoping this would be as fluid as Virtual On, but alas that remains the gold standard (and I hope they release that collection in the west at some point but lol Sega). This feels a bit too jank for my liking, but then thats what 183 characters will do to a game! Some are fun to play as, others are just... there. Then theres the characters with nuke specials.
