#Gundam pc 03 plus#
It’s another plus to the game that there are tons of parts you can equip. Even the most mundane of skills look good, and while the quality isn’t as good as the anime it does leave a great visual impression.Įach part comes with its own special skill you can utilize in battle. That’s in due part to the skills, which do a multitude of things such as direct part repairs to massively destructive attacks. If there’s one upside to the battles, it’s that they do look satisfyingly nice and flashy. This happens every time you face a huge boss or enemy, and it’s a major annoyance. Entering melee range will send the the camera panning upwards, making you lose sight of your own mech.
There’s also an issue with the lock-on system against bigger targets like warships or Perfect Grade Gundams. There’s a lingering sense of awkwardness to the whole thing and it’s especially noticeable during melee combat. Jumping and dodging in particular feels floaty, like you’re stuck underwater. You start off with the iconic RX-78-2 but it never feels as responsive as the earlier games, even after improving your parts and stats. However, even with the three-way fights and the scramble for parts, the overall pace of combat now feels incredibly slow. These can be found in the Library mode, though Gundams must first be unlocked by encountering them in battle. Luckily, you can also buy parts using the points you’ve earned from completing missions. There’s just something to be said about sorting through the massive piles of loot from a successful mission, rather than cherishing the handful of parts you managed to recover. Do you risk the mission by depositing your items, or do you keep on fighting knowing that you may not get to stow the acquired gear? Still, I often miss the old system where you get to keep everything that drops. You’ll need to actively go around scooping them up before depositing the loot in a Recovery box. The icon depicting the player character is so nondescript that it pretty much blends in with the others during a busy battle, making an already hectic situation worse.Īs before, parts and components may be broken off and salvaged for your own mech. Speaking of which, the mini-map in horrendous. The objectives aren’t highlighted on the HUD or the mini-map, so stumbling onto a target is sometimes a matter of luck than any actual planning. While I love the quests system, some of the them can be rather unclear. While the AI are pushovers in the beginning, they start putting up more of a fight as you progress further in the story. It’s a radical departure from the stage-by-stage gameplay of the original Gundam Breaker games, and it’s much more fun for it. That makes it a hectic three-way with you, the enemy, and the quest mobs all fighting in the same space. To make things harder, the enemy team are also hunting for the same objectives you are. The difficulty of the quest dictates how many points you’ll get, but the special Main Quests are necessary for completion. One may involve killing a certain number of AI mechs, while some pits you against a special boss Gundam. Points are earned for completing sub-quests that randomly pop-up during the fight. Rather, it’s a race to complete the mission while scoring the most points.
These fights are arranged as a duo or 3-on-3, however New Gundam Breaker isn’t made up deathmatches. The story is told like a visual novel, mainly to set-up the fight at the end of the chapter. Set in Gunbre High School, where elite Gundam Build fighters enrol, the story revolves around Kyosuke and team’s efforts to stop to the notoriously corrupt student council. Right off the bat, there is a new campaign mode for those (like me) who felt that Gundam Breaker 3 needed a more cohesive plot. Before we get down to what went wrong, let’s start with what Bandai Namco got right. The truth is, New Gundam Breaker is more of a step back for series. New Gundam Breaker is supposedly a fresh start for the series, an overhaul that would improve the decent, albeit repetitive, gameplay of Gundam Breaker 3.
