This is all I can think of. If this Gundam game is half as good as this bad boy tastes, I'm excited.

I was referring to vanilla Maxi Boost which was the one that felt broken with long range units being absolutely outclassed thanks to the accuracy changes and speed changes on most guns.
MBON fixed a lot of the issues with vanilla MB, but still had plenty of melee cancer suits.

GVS basically fell between those two for me, as melee cancer was still ridiculous thanks to the Boost Dive but at least everyone could use those mobility options to balance it out.
Vanilla MB also had that wacko drive system that kinda locked you out of using your main mode of attack if you wanted to get the most out of it. And yeah, the nightmare Banshee Norn that invaded FB was a backport from MB, wasn't it?

Yup, and it was one of the suits that had the fastfall cancel/boost dive tech as well.

The Overdrive system was definitely the worst part of vanilla MB though, and was probably the first thing they cut when designing MBON. Heh.

Honestly speaking, I could forgive the fastfall tech because there were so many other suits in MB that were disproportionately strong without it.

Oh, I don't really have an issue with the tech itself.
I honestly thought making it a universal system like they did in GVS was the best option overall.

edit: Also, didn't Tallgeese II have its own fastfall command that wasn't part of an actual cancel route?
I specifically remember using that suit a lot because it was strong and allowed me to keep up with the Turn X units and such that kept bouncing around dodging my shots. lol

Yeh, all the Tallgeese had command vernier that let them go vertically up or down. The difference, however, is that it's a pure movement commitment. You can't attack during the animation unlike "soft" fastfall tricks like Norn's or Sazabi's or GP03's.

Yeah, that's basically what I was remembering. It gave me similar movement options but not as robust as the other fastfall tech via cancel routes.

Pray for DLC.

I think I'd dropped out from playing when that happened. Was so weird.

Also, old FB matches with y'all! Efreet Ham Lord all the way with Meer soundtrack support.

Now I'm here watching old EXVS youtube vids instead of doing what I actually should be doing ;). Wonder if there might ever be a chance of getting Blue Destiny Unit 2. I mean, if Setsuna can have half a dozen suits or so, then why not?

I remember there was one guy from dustloop forum who ran us down for sucking in other IRCs and was talking mad shit on us (I think it was that crazy good heavyarms player) and then someone in our IRC snitched us out talking about them talking shit. I remember one of them in particular going after me for being unpleasant or something. well no shit, we were an irc full of casual players not dudes aiming for EVO what did you expect lol

The NA community for Full Boost got really kinda toxic towards the end and it carried over into Gundam Versus. There were a couple of streamers who straight up quit because of it. Hopefully those kids have all grown up now and won't ruin this game!

Gundam Versus was barebones compared to previous console ports of the arcade titles on the PS2 and PS3. It definitely felt like a B Team made the game while the actual devs kept going with the arcade versions. Prior to Gundam Vs there would be a console port of whatever had been in the arcades for the last couple years, usually alongside a new arcade title. They blew that plan up by giving us Gundam Vs instead of MBON in 2017 and making EXVS2 for arcades in 2018.
oh ok makes sense. Thanks for clearing up!

So what kind of bangers can we expect? Is there a list of music tracks? Versus had a great soundtrack but I felt like there were a few missing.

Unfortunately this would depend on wether or not we get a premium G sound edition.

Premium G usually has the Vocal OPs and more for each series instead of instrumentals of those songs. This edition costs more presumably due to licensing, and I have 0 idea how that will shake out when we include localization in to the mix.


I hope to god they copy SRW T's custom music system, because then we could make our own "Premium G Sound" edition without the licensing hassle.

I'm sure there will be a Premium G Sound edition and it will probably be a JPN/SEA exclusive if Cross Rays is anything to go by.

Then again, the Switch and PS4 releases of that never made it to NA at all, so who knows.

The G Sound/Anisound editions have always been Japan-only from what I can remember.


I'd feel really bad if after all the effort put into getting this game in English I'd still have to import the Jpn version for vocal music though but I guess it is what it is. I might very well double dip for this if they can't get the custom music for this.

The situation will likely be similar to what happened with Gundam Versus where Japan had a G Sound Premium Edition and the rest of the world just got the regular version of the game which still had some vocal songs.

I had 0 idea Here Comes Char was even in that game in jpn premium g sound lol. I also forgot this was a thing with that particular versus game in general.

I guess I'm double dipping then!


EDIT: oh my gosh I missed out on WANA too?!?!?

Considering they're big Gundam fans, it was cool seeing them get linked up for the 30th Gundam anniversary on top of being the intro to EXVS, so they'll always be connected to Gundam to me as a fan of them, too.

Plus the homage they got in Build Divers was the best.
