Is there a good amount of players? Especially if you're playing alone? I've never played any of the gundam games but my friend got me Super Robot Wars T for my birthday and I kind of want more gundam in my life right now. I only know one person with a ps4 and not sure he'll grab it though.
What?! That's good to know! I'm still in the earliest missions, but I was getting pretty frustrated trying to get an S everywhere. And I hate that AI with its input readings, the number of times it dodged a melee attack or a shoot at close range...

Yeah, there's a lot of people online. Can be tough on beginners, but our discord is happy to help among other communities out there like Extreme Evolution. ^^
I wouldn't worry about S ranking later missions initially. After you beat area Z (don't worry, it skips from H to Z), you'll get the deathblow skill that kills enemies (and yourself and partner) in one hit. I was able to S rank a number of later missions that way.
That's good to know. I'm currently on E and was wondering how long it was going to take!
I need to do mission mode and the last branch route but I jump into ranked literally every session lol.
I just figured out that you can upgrade skills in Mission Mode. Whoops. That made things WAY EASIER.

What y'all got rocking on your custom tracks? Here's one of mine... xD
Nah, it's Maxiboost Mission mode. Branch Battle is basically arcade mode.
No, but it's always a pleasure to see members of the Church spread His Word.
Maybe. It's part of their English language Gundam Expo Online and based on an email sent out the focus is likely on BO2 and the mobile Gundam Breaker thing, so I'd say keep expectations low.

Now I can start enjoying this game more 😅
I'm still holding onto the belief that the GP system is gonna be used to rent DLC units like in FB (pls)

Yeah - also, it should be noted: we unfortunately discovered their lobbies does not give you the option to spectate other people's matches while waiting... 😒
1v1v1 would have been perfect for me and my 2 friends who own this game lol.

And no mention of DLC suits. I'm guessing the dream is dead.

The only thing I can think of is early next year or whenever EXVS2XB goes live.Mobile Suit Gundam: Extreme VS. Maxiboost ON version 1.06 update now available; adds ‘Player Match Arena,’ wireless connection indicator, more

Checking in to say that after wanting to give up on this game for my failure to wipe my right analog stick boost cancel habit from my muscle memory, I have had a revelation today after losing a couple rounds by playing more defensively instead of always trying to rush in. That win felt completely in my hands and the match dictated by my actions rather than dumb luck and a good teammate.
I'm looking forward to keep at it with F91 and then try and get back to Deathscythe Hell (tv) which was my main in VS.

The easiest way to get better at this game is to change to a ranged suit/all arounder and just play keep away and poke with beam rifles/projectiles and hop away
Speaking of... VS had the color coordinated text to help distinguish melee and ranged and the spectrum between. Nothing like that seems present here unless I'm missing something. What's the best way to find out besides trial and error?
Generally speaking, any attack that separates itself from your suit is a projectile (including stuff like Zeong's rocket punches which are delivered by B button press). There are very few exceptions, like Sandrock's shotel throws, I believe, which will penetrate anti-projectile shields.
No I meant before choosing a suit. Red cost meant strong melee, orange mostly melee, yellow balanced mix, green mostly ranged and blue strong range. I think it was the cost that was color coordinated like that or some other text while choosing a suit.
Here, color just distinguishes cost.
Honestly, I want a game that includes some of the features in VS on PS4 going forward. Going backwards was quite jarring having not played any other game in the series. I like the idea of boost canceling and choosing a support suit. And the aforementioned color coordination lol.
If I want a physical copy in English, is the Asian import version the way to go? I remember the Vita Gundam Vs. game was like that.

JP version is fine if you want to go that way since it switches language based on your PS4 settings.
