5 more days till my childhood classic remake gets released finally. I hope the hentai of Sami pops off
>>1402323always had them.
>>1402323its a pretty faithful remake, no new characters were added and the designs stayed pretty faithful jus in wayforwards style
>>1402313>>1402469>remakeits a remaster at best, but even that implies they have improved the visuals
>>1402313I just plain don't like how it looks. The models look incredibly flat and lack detail. They barely resemble the original sprites at all, they feel like baby's first blender models. The CO art looks alright but that's pretty much it, the rest is just bad.
>>1402469incompetent shill
>>1402313What is the point of this if I can play actual wargames
literally every advance wars game can be emulated easilywhy buy this shit for switch?
>>1402717Its the typical scenario of "franchise held hostage to force more sells in hopes of a new game"Its not even being released in its own country, nips do not give a flying fuck about this series
>>1402313Isn't this a children's game?
>>1402717I don't keep up with the Switch because I don't own one, but I think something's going on with its library; the Switch game I've seen people be the most hype for in the past month is the Battle Network port, and the game everyone was really hype about last year were the Diamond/Pearl remakes (they came out in 2021, but I only really started seeing people playing them out in the wild last year). I guess people's standards for vidya are so low now that everyone gets really excited for games they've already played.
>>1402723Wtf I love advance wars now
>>1402723>futatranny>>>/trash/
The games are free
>>1402313if you're gonna be openly horny over fake characters, couldn't you at least pick one that's an adult?
>>1403381Not OP but she has a fucking gun, is an important/authoritative figure of war and was chosen to lead armies of grown men fighting, she is adult just by this fact alone even if she was officially 12 for some forsaken reasons. Not the best example you took to say a character is and/or looks like a toddler/teen.
NSP FILE LEAK WHEN?
>>1403381Why?
>>1403381>>>/plebbit/
>>1403381>he actually likes ugly old hags with barren wombsNGMI
Really think they should have made it 2D. The 3d models just look ugly and lack charm. Also looks really jarring that the CO portraits are 2D while everything is 3D.
>>1402489>>1403877The models still lack the charm of the original sprites. But at least they look like a million times now then they used to look in the latest trailer from over a year ago. It was even hard to keep units apart.Now they added visibly more contrasts which gave each model more depth.When it comes to the new design, I got to say that I still don't like it. At least they had some coomers in developement because all the female characters look way smoother than the male counter parts. I would even go so far to say that the female characters look 'okay'.
>>1402313I have a sort of back-handed appreciation for shitty remakes like this and Pharaoh because at least they inspire me to replay the originals.
>>1402313me too anon
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w3EsbCmfp2k explains the "artstyle" problem much better than any of you gaylords since the announcement in 2021
>>1403458Already happened 5 months ago allegedly. . . if that redarded troon wasn't bullshiting for attention and Ninty really can remotely delete random shit off your Switch before bricking it, then somethings really fucked if people don't see a problem with this abuse of power
Stumbled on a guy who didn't know Nell was playable, so now I'm explaining to him how luck works. Anyone remember what the ceiling for her CO Power is? I already know her Super goes up to 100%.
>>1406365IIRC it's up to 20% with just her passive and up to 60% during regular CO Power.
>>1406373No, her passive is up to 15%.
>>1402469Technically a new character was added.Clone Andy is now a seprate playable CO, apparently
Anyone want to play Awbw? I'm noob and scared to jump on the ladder.
>>1406553Oh no, are they so inept that they couldn't even add CO repaints?
>>1406727We don't know. He may be actually diffrent, like maybe the same COP but a diffrent SCOP? We have to get the game and unlock him to find out.
>>1406568Make a game and post it up here. I'm sure somebody will take you up on it.
found literally by accident clicking on the wrong thread the best Lash cosplay >>>/wg/7963264and I think this isn't supposed to be Lash
>>1406365Nell main here. In the OG she had 15% luck on daily basis and 60% during her COP and 100% during her SCOP. I'm not absolutely sure but I think that was also the number that was added straight into the damage calculation.On AWBW she has 19% luck on daily base and still 59% and 99% with CO respektively SCO power on.I'm pretty sure that AWBW handles luck slightly different. The luck ranges in the OG had actually the stated numbers: luck 15% means additional damage range 0-15. This means that the highest roll happens with a chance of 1/16. In the AWBW algorithm the "15%" luck would only translate to a only 0-14 damage range. This being a reason why they change it to 0-19 instead, I think.Now I'm not quite sure if those numbers 60 and 100 are correct but I'm pretty sure regarding the 15, so it would be only consistent.Practically it has little meaning aside from the OHKO of a infantry vs a neotank. Since inf vs neo has a base damage of 1% it would get OHKOed almost two times as likely (with rolls 99% or 100% luck damage which translates to 2*1/101 = 1.98% vs. 1/100 = 1%). Because I don't know for sure how the rounding system works, I'd say it's pretty much irrelevant whether it's 59% or 60% (considering that you still would have to rely on odds). The difference between 15 and 19 is something you actually feel though.Also I should mention that the damage calculation in AW1 works slightly different, where the order of calculations is changed and luck is no longer affected by unit HP. However, there is also a mechanic that automatically sets the luck value to 0 if the regular damage dealt after rounding is 0.
>>1407436Isn't she underaged?
>>1407440My headcanon after some mental gymnastics :1 Year on Wars World = 1.5 Earth Year
>>1402313i have some nostalgia for the original games on my GBA, but im not a die-hard fan by any meansthat said i really dont like the new artstyle, either for the CO's or the 3d models. everything looks so 'round' and 'plushy' lol. all the characters look like they are from those new kids cartoons that are popular on twitter and tumblr.like yeah its a game for kids, i get it, but even the original GBA sprites felt more mature and grounded lolmy understanding is its switch only and as i dont have autism i dont own a switch, so i wont be playing it unfortunately. id probably have given it a shot if there was a steam release or whatever
>>1407880>everything looks so 'round' and 'plushy' lol. all the characters look like they are from those new kids cartoons that are popular on twitter and tumblrtechnically the first game's art style was cartoony though in a kid's anime type of way.also it's in the typically wayforward art style.Also for the models, i say the issue with those is that the artstyle doen't really translate to 3D very well, there also the possibility that everything looks so 'round' and 'plushy' lol due to backlash against the series going into a more serious direction.
It's ok. You do eventually get used to the new look even if the old one is in the back of your mind the whole time, the gameplay is still AW, but it's not worth 60 bucks. Make it 30 and we'll talk
>>1407880>all the characters look like they are from those new kids cartoons that are popular on twitter and tumblr.It kinda reminds me of Batman Brave and the Bold, and that cartoon is over 10 years old at this point.
Making the AI actually follow the rules, particularly on Fog of War maps is a nice change.It's basically the original two games with a couple gameplay related improvements, quality of life stuff, plus adding the Dual-Strikes CO's, which is nice, would've liked that long delay to have added the campaign along with it.The 'enhanced' graphics... Hit and miss, took a little bit to get used to, but I like the CO's looking more lively now. I can appreciate the effort. Some voices on the other hand... Who the fuck decided Arin from Game Grumps was a good idea for Max of all characters?!And above all else, Lash is fucking cute.
>getting used to shitThat's some faggot cope mentality there
>>1408027while i dislike the graphics as the units lack textures or shading, I got to admit the black hole units look cool.
>>1408063No it's normalfag mentality, in the same way no one likes the taste of bitter beer until they've gotten drunk on it so many times they don't care anymore.
>>1407880>round and plushyIt's a good way to describe it. The art direction is much worse this time around, and the snippets of the music I heard seem like a downgrade too>>1408027>Arin from Game GrumpsZoom zoom
>>1408063>>1408088You're right, I should resort to deciding game quality on graphics and animation alone, especially for a turn based game.
>Gold CometCensoring the name of a Japanese-created representation of Japan because it could be vaguely construed as racist against Japanese people sure is something.I'm struggling to have fun. Other than the music this is a strict downgrade so far, and some of the music (Max's notably) sounds like shit. I'm really disappointed. Straight ports of the originals would have been better.
>>1402313Breeding with Sami to get her pregnant.
>>1408063Who are you replying to?
aw lawd, what have they done to my boy, Jess? the new theme sucks ass. they completely removed that industrial assembly hall echo intro in the beginning, this was by far the best part.Also wtf is the voice acting? Sounds like an eva from fucking c&c.
>>1408259>boyAnon, I...But yes, most of the new themes are downgrades, especially with the melodies too far back in the mix. Of the ones I listened to, I think Nell's is the only one I'd consider improved
>best girl>crazy hot>best theme>...>shit CO powersI am actually suffering
>>1408822I wouldn't say shit, just a bit heavily situational. There's worse than her that range from garbage to completely fucking useless.Mid as fuck.But yeah, best everything else though.
>>1408822>>crazy hotautism
>>1402823All games are for children
>>1408822I forget, did DS buff her or not?
>>1409112iirc ds cut the damage bonus she gets from 10% per terrain * to 5% per
posting the most underrated girl
>>1409193>underratedI guess you mean as a simpmagnet because as a CO she's absolutely awful. Playing around the badluck is a pain in the ass.
>>1409201I said underrated girl not underrated COif you want competent choose her dad
>>1409112Pretty much everyone took a nerf in DS.Honestly I don't even think I noticed with Lash, she probably got off easy with her nerf compared to others.
>>1409112nah, she got nerfed pretty badly until she was basically unplayable. Her terrain bonus got halfed.
>>1409325she suffers...
Adders theme is fucking sickhttps://vocaroo.com/11OmRtA9Gwbn
>>1409420why does nu-lash have fangs?
>>1409801don't play dumb
>>1409801why now?
>>1409827yeah I noticed it in the reboot. can't recall her having them in the original design>>1409808she's called 'Cat' in the Japanese version. however, I didn't see any feline allusions prior to that
The Resetera thread about this gameis more active than this thread.
>>1410523Stay there.
Is it just me or does Lash have the voice of Rainbow Dash? I can definitely hear it, especially the laughter.
Anyone else find Grit insufferable to play against? I've been stuck on Mission 10 for days now.
>>1402801why dont japs have taste?
So, they removed the implication that Sami has a crush on Nell from Naval Clash and Battle Mystery. Discuss.
>friend is adamant that Days of Ruin is the most imbalanced game in the seriesI just have no idea where he could possibly get this opinion, other than the COs that are "meant" to be overpowered.
>>1410795Normal campaign, History Lesson? Focus on the north and his HQ, don't go the long way around the South. Once you have his Battleship down you're free to go for a pretty easy cap. Skip the center island entirely. He won't have much more than a tank or two to try to stop you.
>>1406341>its the same exact game>except the visuals are 3D dogshit>and the framerate perplexingly bad>but you can zoom outTrash
>>1411121I must have been too young because I don't remember catching any of this subtext.
>>1406341I don't think the majority of critisism refers to the technical aspects. Most of the complains date back to when the first footage came out and back then nobody could run tests to measure dynamic framerates, not to mention that this could have still be fixed in the final release.
>>1402313How did they manage to make this look AND run worse than the original? The GBA version was a smooth 60fps with instant reactions, in this game every input action is slow as molasses

I hate the voice acting so fucking much
>>1411768Not only is the acting bad, these eceleb voice actors fucking larp as other voice actors >Egoraptor doing Patrick Warburton soundalikes>proZD doing Dan Green impressionsIt’s pretty pathetic

>wahhh the art style isn’t pixels>wahhh nintendo is to afraid to call the japanese “yellow”Yet I struggle to find anyone crying about the lack of open online multiplayer in year 2023. An actual feature absence that negatively and physically affects the product. Why are smoothbrains like this?

What the fuck is wrong with Lash's voice. Did they think the "hyperactive child" thing was too dicey to adapt, so they just made her a generic preppy teen? Then again, they censored Max and Flak calling each other apes despite both of them being white...
>>1412107They brought back Grit's cowboy hat and Sonja's glasses but not Olaf's santa hat or Nell's bare shoulders?Why?
>>1408822>>1409420>>1409827Why does she look emo?
>>1413020gee anon, I wonder why a game from 2003 would have an emo character
>>1412814I tried AWBW many years ago and just got mad that it was elaborate chess by mail. So yea, nah, I guess I will just die waiting for an online functionality patch for Reboot Camp.
>>1412107Eagle with his gray hair and widow's peak is 17? damn

>>1412780too cute
All this talk surrounding the remaster convinced me to finally check out the series since it's been on my bucket list for a while. I finished the first game's campaign yesterday and found myself enjoying it way more than I expected to. As someone who often plays the more autistic strategy games I think there's something very refreshing about one that's relatively simple mechanically while still offering a decent challenge. The fog of war missions are bullshit, though. After the first couple I started looking up a fogless map online whenever they appeared.The presentation is also very charming, and I like that the entire cast is made up of warmongering psychopaths if you stop and think about it for a second.
>>1413452>I like that the entire cast is made up of warmongering psychopaths if you stop and think about it for a second.It's best not to think too hard about it.>The fog of war missions are bullshitYeah, the AI straight up cheats in FoW and will continue to do so until Days of Ruin.
>>1413452>I like that the entire cast is made up of warmongering psychopaths if you stop and think about it for a second.Only in the first. Because the 2nd game fleshes out the characters so they are one-note personalities and gives them a proper enemy to fight instead.Compare this dialogue from Yellow Comet's mission: Duty and Honor from AW2 to Kanbei being an idiot in AW1.Sonja: Father, hold your attack!Kanbei: Why, Sonja? The Black Hole Army is about to lay siege to our cities.Sonja: It's a trap. They're trying to lure us in.Kanbei: But we can't just sit here!Sonja: Why not? That city isn't at all important, strategically speaking.Kanbei: Sonja! What are you? What are we?Sonja: What are we? We're COs in the Yellow Comet Army.Kanbei: Correct. And COs do not sit idly by and watch their people be destroyed! Even if it's a trap. Even if it's not strategically important.Sonja: That's...Kanbei: We are COs. It is our job to protect the people of Yellow Comet. Am I wrong?In Dual Strike, when the good guys actually fight, it's implied it's a friendly wargame sparring session where their soldiers and vehicles use rubber bullets and paintballs.
>>1413524>aren't
>>1413524>it's impliedWhere was that implied?
>>1413524>Why not? That city isn't at all important, strategically speaking.Sonja, your Lash is showing.
tabitha, raping you in a dungeon.
>>1413452>I like that the entire cast is made up of warmongering psychopaths if you stop and think about it for a second.First of the series I played was Dual-Strikes, thought something was very fucked up about the mission where Green Earth arrives to help and they want to test your leadership in a friendly battle before they commit to the alliance.And there everyone goes just throwing their soldiers at each other, death and carnage, absolute destruction with a new Megatank...But fuck it, all in good fun, friendly war games and all that! We'll all laugh about it later!
>>1413452it's a goofy anime game about children who don't know what airports are leading massive armies on a globe-trotting campaign of warmongering, don't think you're supposed to take it that seriously>>1413498>pica classic
>>1413412I don't think AW is popular enough in Japan for hentai, pretty sure it's always been much more popular with Western audiences
>>1413645With a war tank.
>>1414192It'd be normal to wonder what does armpits smell like after a 2 mile run.
>>1414300it'd be extremely lewd
>>1414303Does her power jingle sound the closest to the vanilla AW1 power jingle?
>>1413644I wish they hadn't dropped that clone plot point.
>>1414339I might be misremembering, but in the originals they didn't have unique power themes, just their normal theme and whenever anyone activated a CO power the power theme would play>closestI think Lash is the closest, mostly due to the original from AW2 already sounding pretty techno compared to the others CO's who had to make due with the GBA's poor attempt at imitating instrumentshttps://youtu.be/TwfIqf-taIQhttps://youtu.be/V8rsIExfnEY
the gayest looking character coming through
>>1414408Fuck you I like Jess, I just hate what Wayforward did to her.
>>1414415nopenot looking dykenot even a little
>>1414408What the hell happened to her hair?
>>1414295Sequel never ever.
>>1414192I don't know if that's true, the series has been around since the Famicom era. Maybe they were just more niche before the Advance games.
>>1414408Hair's way too neat.And not mid-way to a mullet.Not a fan. Small, but very unnecessary change.
>>1414047>>1413498>Implying I think the tonal dissonance is a bad thingAgain, it's refreshing to see a game that not only doesn't give a shit about the horrors of war, but instead goes hard in the opposite direction. I also find the thought of Sami laughing gleefully as she guns down a room full of people to be very hot.
>>1414408Hair’s too poofy, but I’ve got a bigger problem with the grin. Jess is cool and competent, that doesn’t suit her at all.
>>1412603*Nell's age
>>1414420looks like fucking MacGyver
>>1414635it made more sense with weight
>>1405959felt betrayed when i clicked on this gif. kys
>>1414878she doesn't even look fat in that pic just pregnant
>>1414420Which is a downgrade from AW2.
>>1415260Cute. Did they do anything to make Sonja not worthless outside of fog?
>>1415260>macro land is a sphere>can see orange star again in the last couple frames of the wrap-aroundUh, where is cosmo land? It's definitely not at the end because you don't also see green earth and black hole with it.
>>1415302Sonja is worthless IN fog.
>>1412972Cuz that shit looks stupid.
>>1415346Lies!
>>1415302That'd require retooling the whole game, when they're supposed to be porting in their original statistics for faithfulness's sake. You don't have AWBW porting in Sonja's terrain star mechanics and Jess's 100/100 infantry from Dual Strake.
>>1415627>That'd require retooling the whole gameHyperbole.How sad. At least I’ll get my obscene 130/130 Kanbei.
>>1415302I don't think they fucked with the balance(this is a good thing)
Power and technique rankings now depend on which CO you end the map with. This is gonna make Great Sea Battle hell to 300, since the optimal strategy is to have Yellow Comet bypass the whole battle and destroy the pipe seam with a rocket.
>>1415651Wasn’t that always the case with power?You could always say fuck the meta and bust through the front door with orange and green. That’s pretty fun.
>>1415648It's a damn shame they didn't expand on separating the land and air theaters in that one mission in DS
>>1412107>older than all of these except blu-santa and samurai guycome on, they could have at least made the bodybuilder and detective looking ones be like 25
Still not enough new hentai

There are fewer fog of war missions and those that do exist aren't as bullshit, mission design in general is better, you get more COs to play around with, and it's nice to see a bit more effort put into the story even if I enjoyed the warmongering of its predecessor. Oh yeah, Lash is best girl and did nothing wrong. Any advice on where to go next?
>>1419237Sell me on AW2, I legitimately hate it and dropped it after bashing my head against a wall for too long trying to clear Hawke's boss level in the advanced campaign and I definitely don't remember having fun at any point before that and every level was forgettable.Then again it's been probably somewhere close to 20 years since then now and my memory is appropriately fuzzy, I'm willing to give the remaster version a chance.
>>1419292Most memorable campaign with most varied missions. Best aesthetics (GBA version). AW1 is too simple, Dual Strike is too bloated with nonsense and Dark Conlifct is a very different beast.
>>1419322>Most memorable campaign with most varied missions.Then why is it I can only remember two missions from the normal + advanced campaign combined?The first mission vs Flak on advanced was bullshit, and then trying to stop the factory vs Hawke was even bigger bullshit as I had to force my way into a tiny chokepoint behind infinitely spawning free units.AW1's campaign was incredibly charming.AWDS was comfy.DoR kept me incredibly engaged and the stakes nice and high.AW2 made me pop a vein in my forehead or three.
>>1419337DS is boring as fuck on both difficulties.
>>1419346Felt like I was on a summer vacation the entire time, and I've an extreme soft spot for the dual CO mechanic and games that do similar.
>>1419346and just an unbalanced mess
neo and mega tanks were a mistake
>>1419441yes actuallyAW1 had a pretty grounded aesthetic, adding a giant ball on wheeled tentacles kinda fucks with that
>>1419673Fortresses and missiles that are as big as nine cities didn't help either, and in things got completely unhinged in AWDS
>>1419673>>1419730Too be far, those things were being made by black hole who are a bunch of aliens with human commanders so I can let those things slide.The mega tank how I believe was made by green earth, like was it their version of the maus or rattle tanks or something?
>>1419322>Best aesthetics (GBA version)Sprite supremacy is very real. Same thing with Fire Emblem
>>1419441Neo tank is cute. CUTE!
>>1420254She is cute, that is why she is called Neo Chan.
>>1419237>Any advice on where to go next?On to the DS games. Dual Strike has some questionable additions and I think has the easiest campaign but is still worth playing. Days of Ruin is a complete rework that you should absolutely play.There's also the war room maps which are great if you just want more advance wars.
The reboot has war room maps, right?Which version of them did they end up using?
>>1420316I forgot all about that. What the fuck, was the original somehow deemed too hard?
>>1420316>>1420363The reboot uses the originals, and you pick if you want AW1 or AW2 rules when you select a map. The base wasn't until DS, and yeah it's stupid as hell.
>>1419441I don't mind Neotanks too much, but all of the added units for Dual Strike kinda rub me the wrong way. Maybe Stealths and Carriers are fine, but the Black Bombs/Black Boats/Megatanks are just a bit too much for me.
>>1420386Black boats are goofy, but mechanically I fucking love them. Improved DS’s naval game a ton, and damn if it didn’t need that.Megatanks were really niche. Kinda fun sometimes, didn’t mind them existing.Black bombs were fucking stupid and should have been a campaign-only unit or something.
>>1420316I really dislike the tilting of the map in DS.
>>1420316I don't think I ever 300ed this map without some OP cheat CO. Pushing into Blue's area always ended up taking just a little too long or being just a little too costly.
I like how we can finally place the black hole army onto the map in the design room, though it doesn’t seem like there is anything special about them as the cannons seem to attack them in versus as well.
>>1420425It's pretty easy to do on DS, that extra base gives you so much more momentum. It does always take a couple more turns than it feels like it should though, four bases worth of unit production is a lot to get through.
>>1420386Especially Pipe Runners.
>>1420304I've been playing War Room off and on whenever I'm in the mood for it. As for the DS games, I've heard mixed things about them elsewhere but the sentiment in this thread seems to be mostly positive so I guess I'll check them out at some point. Is Battalion Wars any good? I know it's not exactly /vst/ material but I have an interest in weird/obscure games.
>>1420523But especially oozium
>>1416414Holy fuck, somebody remade this with her new design?>not on rule34>not on gelbooru>not on ATF>not on lolibooruWhere did you get this? SAUCE.
>>1420161Green Erf was always modelled after Germany. Look at the helmets and trench coats of their infantry. Or even at their women.
>>1420425made me curious so I got my old AW2 cartridge. turns out my best attempt was 300 in 9 days with Nell. dunno if this qualifies as OP cheat CO
Does anyone here occasionally watch the bald fraud? holy fuck his new videos cancer. in the past they were at least entertaining to watch
>>1420791Nell isn't OP in any sense, shape or form.
>>1420938His new video about 10 hidden mechanics? I thought it was fine, actually didn't know about a few things mentioned in the vid. What's so bad about it?
>>1420938Never have, never will. He had a good dynamic with the other guy, but on his own he just sucks.
>>1421526>on his own he just sucksFunnily enough, the same could be said about the other guy.
>>1421529I've enjoyed more solo content with him than I ever have with the egg.
>>1420938no they werent
>>1420938I don't watch random fags on the internet play games I can play myself, and I've never seen the appeal. I can kind of get it for something like an rts or fighting game where the vast majority of people don't have the talent to play at the highest level, but for strategy games? Lol lmao even Would much rather just shitpost about games with random fags here. I don't know why people feel the need to give them the attention and then bring it up here. Not even saying it's off-topic, but it's always: 'Hey, did you see what e-celebfag did?' as if one should care.
>>1421494nah, that one wasn't even out when I posted this, methinks.What I mean in particular is his videos on the elite campagne (among others). I recently watched the stream when the game came out and it was wonky and goofy as it was in the past: oopsie, I placed my neo into rocket range haha. Now he pretends like he's a pro and able to explain to people how things work.Like he played this game for 20 years and didn't figure out how things work or how to exploit the AI ("dude, rapairs bad..." or how the AI's attack priority is). It took some pro players to say the most basic shtoof so he can repeat and repeat it in his vids. There is obviously a reason why he plays only one mission at a time, and he obviously plays it beforehand and overly prepares, yet he still goes out an does this gimmick as if he was playing it for the first time. Yeah, we watched the vids for the major goof ups, not to let us educate on the most basic things. Another example is his 2nd division final game in some meme cup. Dude, I get your happy that you reached the play offs, but for fucks sake if your opponent throws the towel on day 10, maybe it's not the best material to brag about it and trying to educate someone that done a dumb move and they quit.>>1421571>kind of get it for something like an rts or fighting game where the vast majority of people don't have the talent to play at the highest levelCome on, man. You're not being objective on this. Take chess as an example. Lots of players love to watch very skilled players even if they could technically just play the game on their own. Nothing else with this game, just your personal preference.>I don't know why people feel the need to give them the attention and then bring it up here.Hence, I stick to my principles and don't drop any names because I think the e-celeb thing is cancer and I don't want to give them credit.
>>1421820I get what you're saying, but IMO I enjoy when he fucks up and makes blunders. It makes for more entertaining content by displaying the fact that even so-called "experienced" players make mistakes, and serves as a teaching moment i.e. "don't do what I just did" - although I can see how it can be annoying to watch for pre-experienced high-level players.
>>1421820>Come on, man. You're not being objective on this. Take chess as an example. Lots of players love to watch very skilled players even if they could technically just play the game on their own. Nothing else with this game, just your personal preference.That's why I used the examples I did, anon. I don't care for any of it, but I understand with things that have a high skill-ceiling. Chess definitely falls in that category. Advanced Wars does not. It's just not that hard of a game. If you're having a hard time it's either because you are making dumb mistakes that you shouldn't be, or you don't actually fully understand how the game works. Nothing wrong with either of those things, but no random dude making videos is going to be so much better than me that I'm going to be able to appreciate their ''''skill''''. If people want to have it on as background noise or whatever, that's fine, so long as they admit it's the equivalent of old people and game shows. But I appreciate you being cool about it. I guess it's a Burger thing where people always feel the need to latch onto celebrities, but the same thing happened in the old XCOM generals with that bagel dude to the point of people circlejerking about his personal life and shit.
Does anyone have that infographic of AW2 romhacks? I've seen it in these threads a bunch of times but I forgot to save it.
>>1419441all the black hole wunderwaffe units should have remained campaign only
>>1422207I would rather just have a "unit switch" option when you're setting up a Versus match, so units can be excluded on an individual basis
>>1422151
>>1422497Cheers, buddy.
>>1421958kek, no, apparerently not. because what I was trying to say is pretty much what you said in your post. in short: goofy egg = good, professor egg = cringeI don't even mind him doing his 10 tips for beginners vids, as long as the target group is literally people who just started playing the game. but please no more of this yo, let me show you how the pros are doing it bullshit.>>1421991>Advanced Wars does not. It's just not that hard of a game.It depends on how you are playing this game. Competitive PvP AW is very similar to chess, in fact before playing competitive I came from the speedrunning scene, and I was even disappointed to learn how versus against human players work. Games can be over on day 10 before even serious engagements took place.Playing against the AI is entirely different thing though. I don't know how old you are, but when I played video games single player against the AI was the absolute standard. Doesn't matter if RTS, shooters, RPG or whatever. Competitive play was done by grinding the shit of the game and finding the best ways of exploiting the AI. What I'm trying to say here is, understanding the game doesn't end in beating it. First you beat the campagne, then you try to S rank it, then to 300 every mission, then 300 the war room, then 300 with shitty COs, then you try to do it within a day less than the current record. Then you start doing ridiculous challenges like no death or 4 player maps against 3 Sturms and so on. So if you're really devoted to the game, then there is no such thing as finishing the game. And no matter how good you are, you still find ways to increase the difficulty to put yourself to the test and require to further improve your skills.And coming from there, I got to say that AW vs AI and AW PvP are two different games that only follow the same rule set.Today, I only play chess and AW
Final Front is so fucking fun.
>>1422928Now do it again on Normal.
>>1423118That was on normal. I have no idea why hard it easier.
>>1423136Designers probably don't think the player would plan ahead for the meteor by making bait piles for it.
Did we get any fanart yet?
>>1423250a little
>>1412603Thats allota words for saying expired christmas cake
>>1423263Christmas cake hasn't really been a thing for a while. You might hear toshikoshi soba(31), but even that is less of a thing in an aging population that isn't having kids.
>>1423263it's rather cream pie that come to my mind when thinking about nell
>>1423246What kind of a psychopath would use strategy in a strategy game
>>1413342>nigger soldiers
>>1423907It is a historical fact blacks never fought in wars. It is simply beneath them.
>>1423246It's not even that, it's just so easy to disable all the scattered bases.
Mangs fucking won
>>1423118Final Front is actually easier in the Advanced campagne
>>1423957you lost to the bald fraud. shame on you
>>1405959kill yourself
>>1420781>Or even at their women.
>>1413342It was about time they introduced black samurais.

God i'm tired of niggers
>>1414303I'd let Nell peg me in an instant
German samurai also exist yet I hear no complaints about them.
>>1414404in AW1 there is no power theme, but just a jingle that plays when the power activates before returning to the normal theme.
>>1425044hi i'm nell
>>1425044pegging is hella gay, but I'd let her spank me
>>1425534Do they still do this for regular CO powers?
>>1425534I want Lash to capture and torture me to death for fun.
>>1425539Character animations are the same for both, SCOP just has additional effects.
>>1412780Lash is supposed to be creepy, not cute.
>>1425172No, Sanger is a knight that likes to larp as a samurai>>1426153You can't tell my boner what to do
>>1425631She's build machines to do it for her. She'd explain what they do to you and might come to watch sometimes, but wouldn't be hands-on much, if at all.
I'm torn on whether or not to bother pirating it. I don't have an issue with the artstyle change but I already have the originals on my PC and if I'm being honest, I like how in the original the unique sprites for factions was restricted to battle because it means on the map I always know what the enemy has deployed. In the remake since their map models match their battle models I actually have to keep in mind what everyone's shit looks like in battle when calculating what to attack instead of just seeing the same Med Tank icon all factions use.
>>1404106>At least they had some coomers in developementIt's Wayforward, all of their artists are coomers.
>>1426328Buy it. I want this franchise to live.
>>1425024>When Yasuke was presented to Oda Nobunaga, the Japanese daimyō thought that his skin must have been colored with black ink. Nobunaga had him strip from the waist up and made him scrub his skin. When Nobunaga realized that the African's skin was indeed black, he took an interest in himKek
>>1426673You should've learned by not that you're only going to get more garbage remasters by buying them in the first place, not more quality entries.
>>1426328Yeah I've already gotten fucked over by green earth rockets because I thought it looked like missile.
>>1426328Has there ever been a remake or remaster that hasn't made readability worse?
>>1426673>>1426713it's actually pretty monkey pawed wish ragardless if it results in a new advance wars game regardless if way forward or IS does it, in IS's case mostly because IS reasoning for not making a new AW game showing a shocking lack of understand why people play AW games (as in if IS makes a new AW, it be AW in name only most likely) and they haven't made one in a VERY long time. as for why way forward continuing AW being monkey pawed as well? well you already know the answer from this thread.
>>1426719c&c
>>1426673No switch, I can either pirate or not play at all.
>>1426305>Implying I wouldn't be fine with that
>>1426729The only shit job wayforward did mechanically with the game was not giving it a good online mode and not letting you save in Versus.Most of the voices are meh but aside from one or two they aren't that unbearable.I rather take my chances with them doing a Dual Strike DLC and hopfully being less stingy with online map sizes and bump the max design room to 30 x 30.IS would just make AW into FE Engage.
>>1427148>IS would just make AW into FE Engage.Hell any new AW from them probably would just be modern FE but with tanks.
>>1427148>I rather take my chances with them doing a Dual Strike DLC and hopfully being less stingy with online map sizes and bump the max design room to 30 x 30.With the ability To place the giant missile, fortress and black hole factory into custom maps, and possibly to set which faction the BH weapons shoot at.
>>1427148>>1427165Didn't they actually say this recently? That they'd love to make a new AW but putting waifu/relationship shit into it would be hard so they don't know what to do.
>>1427293>That they'd love to make a new AW but putting waifu/relationship shit into it would be hard so they don't know what to do.Why would AW even need this other then “FE did it”? Like people don’t play advance wars for stuff like that, they want a turn based war game with COs powers and tanks and stuff.Like comment about wanting to put waifu relationship shit into AW just sounds so out of touch that it’s hard to believe it came from IS.How do they not get a game series they made? you would think a statement like that would of came from a company that knows nothing about the series.
>>1427293It was a 2015(?) interview or around the time Awakening was released. >>1427319>Why would AW even need this other then “FE did it”?Because ever since IS lost their OGs they have been creatively bankrupt and only coasting because Awakening ended up being a fluke of a success.
>>1427353Yeah, 2017>Personally, I’d love to do Advance Wars, but since it’s harder to create relationships between its characters compared to Fire Emblem, I don’t have a clear idea of what kind of setting it could have.
>>1427365That's the line
>>1427167>set which faction the BH weapons shoot at.I'm really surprised they added them to Design mode but somehow missed the opportunity to let us place them in other colours
>>1427365>>1427353>the setting is why they cannot put relationship stuff in>not the fact that it legit cannot work with the type of game AW isIs this guy out of touch or something?

I finally had Roger's stream VOD recommended to me. https://youtu.be/PGIb1bALvro&t=368Is it true that Consouls worked on the music like he said?

>>1417505By this logic, it's entirely possible DoR and AW is in the same world/planet separated by leagues of distance
>thought dark conflict was a new game I somehow missed>excited to have more AW content>its just what Days of Ruin was called in europe
>>1412621No one actually cares about online multiplayer in strategy games. even the players. we only care about the campaign and single-player experience. why work so hard on something no one cares? They're wise to skimp out on it. And they'll be wise to make the next one not focused on online multiplayer too. Just focus on good gameplay and mechanics, good balance, then make a highly customizable online multiplayer.

>>1432216>Dang, this Hawke guy is really a badass, hopefully they'll make another game where he's the main antagonist and won't be beaten by some discount version of Sturm.
>>1431219She's practically in underwear beneath her coat. Total pervert, very hot.
Nell was naked in her office, her big bouncy boobs and trimmed pussy glistined in the sun light, go to her office she opened a draw and licked her lips as she pulled out a prize, Andy’s second wrench the poor sweet boy never knew it went missing, jumping on her desk Nell spread her legs wide, one hand was playing with her clit as she lathered the wrench in the best cream from Yellow Comet, soon she was shoving the wrench in and out off her tight little pussy, the supreme commander of Orange Star howling in ecstasy as she orgasmed in her office, not noticing a glint in the distance.On a nearby tower at Orange Star HQ Andy was watching the show stroking his cock “Note to self give Nell a handmade sextoy for her birthday”ENDYou know Nell is a secret slut and Andy is a peeping tom
>>1413645>>1414295Cruel Rose is such a disgustingly good track.
>>1432474I think it's more the case that the meteors Sturm use for his CO power kicks up dust that blocks the DoR world

So is reboot camp a 1/1 remake in terms of co balance?Max is still overpowered in aw1?
>>1437396pretty much.

>>1439230Goddamn /v/ tourists
Why is arin voicing max?
>>1439230Too bad the Sami hentai didn't really pop off
>>1441058you mean like in this thread or at all on the internet?
>>1439942Never got the buzz about this. Maybe it's because I'm an old man and don't give a fuck about most games nowadays, thus also don't know most of the "famous" voice actors or e-celebrities, but I never got why people where taking a piss on Max' voice from the very second the first samples were released.To be fair, I wasn't big on Max as a character either, maybe I would be more sensitive if it was one of my better liked characters, but in all honesty Max is pretty much what I would have expected him do be. Maybe even more dull than that. Kinda like a good-hearted Flak.tl;dr: for those who don't know these actors, people complaining sound irrational
>>1402313bitch looks like kim possible at home.
>>1442065He's basically doing a diet-Patrick Warburton voice here and it's not particularly bad or grating. Most of the time I forget it's him anyway. In general I think the voice direction was alright; I may have gone for something different for Eagle, Drake, and Hawke but otherwise most characters sound about as expected.
>>1442408Lash seemed very off to me
So, what you guys doing? AWBW? Reboot Camp? Playing some rom hacks/custom campaigns?
>>1442065>Maybe it's because I'm an old man and don't give a fuck about most games nowadays, thus also don't know most of the "famous" voice actors or e-celebritiesIf you were on the internet 15 years ago, you'd know about Egoraptor. I don't think he actually creates anything nowadays though
>>1443474Decided to play the entire series since I never got around to it, couldn't finish Days of Ruin though, I don't care about that game at all.Right now I'm having fun with Dual Strike's hard campaign, which feels more like a victory lap
>>1443579Dual strike is easily my favorite game in the series
>>1443579Are you doing it with the skills and COs you normally wouldn't have in the base campaign? Try it without that, might be more challenging.
>>1443941I'm using them because this is the one chance I have for an NG+ experience in the series. When I'm ready for a challenge I'll do the hard campaigns in the earlier games, at least the AI doesn't cheat in fog in the remake
>>1443474reboot camp, trying to beat AW2 hard campaign and buy out the shop.
I only counted like 10 new pieces of art on Gelbooru.
>>1442065It's because Egoraptor's a washed-up hack these days, so having to associate him with one of the best COs in the game sucks.
>>1412132>"Are you winning, son?" meme in a Nintendo game for reals I thought NoA fired all the Treehouse pedos

>>1426489I've heard somewhere that they dramatically changed Sami from her original design. She had way bigger juggs and they were flopping around in the tank top as if she wasn't wearing any bra.Shame this concept didn't make it in the final release. Would we great if the animations that were made until then were leaked at some point.
>>1451690I get that reference
>>1402313Did the hentai of Sami pop off?
>>1454661Sadly, it's disappointing. I thought there was much potential in the reboot camp release but the effect is diffident.People need to realize that coomer fanbase is the key to keep the interest alive for Nintendo to finally develope a new game.
>want to talk about the game>all the discussion already happened weeks ago>all thats left are mentally ill people lusting over the female charactersThis fucking sucks
>>1454642apparently someone thought it was too tacky.
>>1454869>wants to talk about the game>doesn't
>>1402474yes a 3D remaster of a GBA game, makes a lot of sense. Retard.
>>1454869So just talk dude, who cares whats been said.Threads got 340+ posts in it, who's gonna read the whole lot to know whats been said already.Here, I'll go.I reckon the long stupid delay for this games release should've been time adding the dual-strike campaign to the game as well.I mean its not the best campaign of them, but they went and made it a sequel to 2, so why not just remaster the trilogy rather than just the first two games. Ground work at that point for general gameplay and animations was done, just had to tweak a few of the 'dual-strike' maps that used both DS screens. Switch has buttons to spare for that.
>>1456773Nintendo didn't let them work on the game because it was already set for release last year. Once they made their stupid decision to delay the game over this goycattle glowie war they didn't want anyone to touch it. Had it release last year and got to ride its natural hype, we would already have had DLC or an announcement for a Dual Strike Reboot. Nintendo just wants to sell every copy it printed last year and then see if its worth revisiting.
>>1456773>>1456857interesting enouhg the if it does get a DS DLC, judging from the fact we can use clone andy in AW2 style of the game implies we can use sturm in the DS style.
>>1455238kek
>>1454869In fairness, the discussion actually peaked a decade ago. It's not like this laggy port brought anything new to the table.
