Why you should play Gundam Extreme VS Maxiboost ON, one of the best fighting games out there
- Thread starter donkey
- Start date
A PC port of Maxi Boost would make up for the trainwreck that was Rise of the Incarnates. Make it happen, Bamco.
EW Wing has been in the EXVS series for a while.
That is not Wing EW...that is Wing Gundam Zero EW, the Katoki version of TV Zero....
There are way more build fighters units in the game that's currently in the arcades, EXVS2. Historically, whatever units are in the current arcade version usually appear as DLC in the current console versions so there's a good chance we get em.

Yeah, it's something us series vets have had to deal with since EXVS PS3 in 2011. It's rough on the EU folk considering how much more niche it is. It'll do it's best to match by region, but a lot of the times we just make rooms set to worldwide that denote specific regions to play with. It's at least much better than the game attempting to match you up with jp folk in ranked and not being able to play at all
Interestingly enough, Mission Mode usually has several missions that guide you through the basics. But for more online team based stuff, YouTube vids are your best bet. I can share some if you're interested.
Used to be. Gotcha Force crew from Capcom eventually became Byking which worked with Bandai on the first EXVS. They left to do their own thing (came back to do My Hero) and Bandai formed VSTG which worked on the rest of the EXVS games.
Please, I've already watched all the videos posted in this thread and I really want to get better in this game.
And about that mission mode, is it avaiable in this open access?
Thanks for the help!
It really is one of the best. Just all the content and mobile suits to play with make it easy to spend a lot of time playing it. Finally having this properly out in the west is still surreal!
I'm sure I will continue to be very bad but maybe I'll just main the Lacus Infinite Justice and have fun in spite of that.
I was a big gundam vs fan durring the psp/ps2 era (I even have a bunch of the arcade games). I need to stop being lazy and pick this up.
are you the guy that kept showing up in our rooms last weekend playing IJ Lacus? I was wondering who in the world likes this suit so much that they kept on picking it over and over lol

Mission mode is unfortunately not available in Open Access.
As for vids, these are oldies but goodies as the basics and fundamental game theory really haven't changed throughout the EXVS series.

I checked the FAQ on the official site, because I remembered seeing something about the connection type recently and it says it's P2P:
The series is obv dope but I'm morally opposed to paying for P2P online and Bamco seems to think Rise of Incarnates is/was close enough for PC. Some day...
OP
OP
Yeah I re-read the Siliconera article and it said it wouldn't be using their servers. EXVS, FB and GVS were all P2P so the likelihood of server stuff was super low to begin with anyway.
What a game that was...
Same here, I'd be day 1 if it ever came to switch. I'm one platform only for the moment

Well, with PS4 games being launched from this month on needing to be compatible with the PS5, you might not have to worry too much about it.
I'd be surprised if it ever went to PC or anything else, buuuuuuut... we didn't think they'd ever bring it over to begin with and other Gundam games like G Generation Cross Gen are now on Steam. Who knows?
I've been watching videos of this all day so thanks donkey
I'm not even a big Gundam guy but chalk me up as someone who's spent far too much time walking around in the haze of Japanese arcades wondering how you play this Gundam game that everyone is playing. Super excited to have a decent localised home port to see what the fuss is about!

No problemo! Don't forget to give it a go this weekend in Open Access!
Also just uploaded s'more Zaku Amazing gameplay from last weekend:
It's truly the closest thing we'll ever get to actually playing Gundam Build Fighters. ^^
I played full boost I think that's what it's called for PS3 got the platinum. What is the difference between that and this?
More suits
A New EX BURST that allows for diagonal sidesteps and more
Rebalincing amongst the returning cast (buffs nerfs, New moves)
Previous dlc now baked in
Its a blast
More suits, gameplay and balance tweeks more solo content
OP
OP
Pretty much what everyone said above. Full Boost to MBON is like SFV: Arcade Edition to Champion Edition. Essentially the final version of EXVS before EXVS2 which is out in Japanese arcades now.
Woo! Welcome to the crew. Don't forget you now get an extra day of Open Access over the coming weekends. :)
cool! Well I'll be joining up after ps5 launch then. At least I'll have a launch title to play!
Got it downloaded and ready to go! When is it live? Just Saturday? I see talk of 5AM CEST?
OP
OP
So yeah, it's 4AM Saturday UK time start for me. But if you've preordered the game, you'll get 48 hours to play over the weekends vs 24 hours.
Here's the CEST schedule until launch.
Just add another day to the Until column if you've preordered. Also, the last weekend is bonus 3 days of access, too (again preorders only).
Haha, no that wasn't me. Completely missed last weekend actually. I'm sure I would've mixed it up with some other low-tier, unloved suits.
To paraphrase Kant, should implies could. Where do I send my paypal, Op, so you can provide me with the means to perform an act you prescribe an obligations for me to perform?
I'm kidding, looks kinda neat.

Just play with whatever you're most comfortable with. ^^ And as for the arcade setup, it was a normal stick with 5 buttons.

Cool, ta! Felt good with a controller but I might try stick too for the authenticity.
Whoa, I never realized the arcade layout had the boost next to melee like that. I just got used to having it like the pad layout.
I feel like you're thinking about the game Border Break which had a mouse and analog stick combo.
