How can anyone not comment on this? crying2.gif

I was disappointed with the port for the PSP. Atrocious controls! Well in my opinion...
But this looks very promising indeed. Gundam Epyon ftw happy.gif

Uh, you know that no Wing TV units are in Extreme VS, right? So no Epyon. You do know that...right? laugh.gif

Actually that is the one major thing that disappoints me about the game. They bothered to remove suits that were playable in NEXT PLUS and continued NEXT PLUS's legacy of including CPU-only MS. What the heck good is that!? Dammit why can't I use an Overflag? Or a GN-X? Or GN-Arms? Or Ground Gundam? Or Gundam Throne Zwei? Or any of the numerous other CPU-only MS. It's ridiculous; in all other Gundam VS games before NEXT PLUS, if a suit or mobile armor appeared in-game it was playable. AEUG vs Titans didn't remove suits from Fed vs Zeon. Gundam vs Zeta Gundam didn't remove suits from AEUG vs Titans. OMNI vs ZAFT II Plus didn't remove suits from OMNI vs ZAFT.

Then suddenly they're not including suits that were in the last game? I'm most sad to see Wing Zero TV and Freedom Gundam go, since Wing Zero was my main and Ethos (my eternal rival in Gundam games) mained Freedom. We're going to have to completely re-learn and pick something new. Not that it won't be fun, but really... why, Bandai? Why? facepalm.gif

I can only hope that since this is on a PS3 (thank god!) it'll be eligible for DLC. It would be really super awesome if they added suits (actually hell, just add series, please!!) via DLC. Like... uh... Gundam Wing TV? And please add Kampfer and Gundam X back in, and please add V-Dash. It's really sad to see 0080 and GX only having two MS each. Really, really sad. Come on, guys. Stop giving SEED and Destiny like fifty million MS and then bitching out on the UC. Stop hating on the originals.

Now then, since this hasn't been updated in forever I may as well just put a quick update here to the MS that got added. I won't bother going into the CPU-only MS so here's the full confirmed playable roster so far:

EDIT: Updated 11/27/11 to include DLC suits

I have to agree with you, dont really get why Bandai are leaving out some of these gundams on the game. Maybe its to encourage people to stick with the arcade instead? laugh.gif

Well atleast I got Zeta Gundam to play with still wink2.gif

I think their excuse was that it's a new engine so they had to start the game from scratch. So that's probably why they didn't include the ones from Next Plus.

But it is kinda crappy that we can't use the AI units..

and i guess they already have DLC planned for the game as well. The O, Freedom Gundam, Gottratan, Arche Gundam are in the first DLC batch.

You realize that Gundam Wing TV wasn't in the arcade game either...right? There was no Epyon in it. The PS3 game has every single unit the arcade game has and more.

@Phantom_R32: I hadn't seen that scan before today, wow. Ethos will be happy. My only worry is that they'll focus more on developing the next arcade game and will stop supporting the PS3 game on purpose.

As for the NEXT PLUS -> EXVS theory, that's bunk. They bothered to put in CPU-only MS. The PS3 game disc is capable of holding 25GB of content. There's just no reason to remove things.

Ah well, good thing they're doing DLC. Time to stock up on Japanese PSN cards. Wing Zero TV please!!!

EDIT: Here is a nice clear scan of the DLC.

Only if you were playing the NEXT PLUS arcade game. The closest thing to Epyon I can think of in terms of looks is Virsago if you mean Extreme VS.

Two more days! Argh the wait is killing me!

Thanks for clarifying happy.gif

Anyways even with my little knowledge of Gundam, this is still a must-get in my list. So will this be available on playasia before December 1st?

Unfortunately the only retailer I know who ships early is Amazon.co.jp and they don't ship games internationally. Play-Asia, Yes-Asia and AmiAmi will all be shipping on December 1st. Two more days.

Pre ordered through play Asia.....can't wait!!!

Posted by: Vile Nov 28 2011, 09:48 PM
Alright then Im all good then, just ordered mine. Cant wait for it to ship, which I'll have to bear with the long wait. mad.gif

Wanted online so I got this one

EDIT:
I am quite surprised that Neo-China's gundam from G Gundam is confirmed to be in the game. laugh.gif
They might as well have Gundam Rose (Neo France) in the game as well for the lolz.

Posted by: Phantom_R32 Dec 2 2011, 01:57 PM
So after being on the fence about it for a while.. I'm going with the asian version. It's confirmed to have online and DLC as well. Not to mention it's cheaper. and the US > Hong Kong exchange rate is cheaper, so cheaper PSN cards.

The only trick is you do need a South Asia PSN account to get the HiNu DLC activated, you can't use a JPN account. Not a big deal, but worth noting. Hopefully they'll stick with the iM@S tradition and continue releasing DLC. The website has updated saying that the first batch of DLC is slated for December 22nd, and sadly while add-on missions are free (and DLC suits appear as enemies) the actual add-on MS have a fee attached. Sigh. Bastards.

Also, my game got out of customs today, so hopefully I'll have it tomorrow. Can't wait!

Posted by: Vile Dec 3 2011, 08:14 AM
I dont know what just happened but my order was sold out, even though I pre-ordered 2 days before its release. mad.gif
So I now just got my money back and what Phantom_R32 says is true, I'll go with the Asian Version instead.

Can I have a source please for available online for the Asian version? Sorry its just that I got screwed with the Jap/Asian version system back when Initial D Extreme was first released.

Not really an official source. But just someone else who bought the asian version and confirmed it. And supposedly the menus even have English text at the top of the screen.

Thanks Phantom, I think that persuade me to just get the Asian version instead now. Except its sold out as well. facepalm.gif

eBay for me I guess.

Posted by: Phantom_R32 Dec 3 2011, 01:34 PM
If you're willing to wait a week or two, I'm sure Play-Asia will be restocked by then. It usually doesn't take that long for them to get more. Especially with a game as popular as this.

Posted by: Nomake Wan Dec 3 2011, 04:05 PM
You pre-ordered only two days before release on a game that was highly anticipated. That's what happens. You can't really expect that to work out. At least be a week in advance, then there would still be hope.

Anyway, got the game today. Were it not for the fact that I've been up for quite a while I'd still be playing it. Went ahead and loaded in some custom BGMs to replace the BGMs I didn't care for and flipped through some of the MS. I have a good feel for what my mains will be but until I actually fight people I won't know how good they are. Time will tell.

Only complaint about the game so far is that it's 720p, so I have to tell my monitor to scale out to 16:9. This wouldn't be such a big deal if it weren't the same monitor I were using for my desktop PC, which is 16:10. Sad day.

Anyway, back to the grind!

Alright I'll remember that for the near future. My first pre-ordering experience...
Anyways just ordered mine on YesAsia and they still have on stock cool.gif

Posted by: Nomake Wan Dec 4 2011, 05:30 AM
Got the game around 11:30 AM on the 3rd. Been playing until 4:50 AM on the 4th. No sleep. Bunch of friends over pwning Japanese players online. Feels good man.

But now I think it's time to rest. My thumbs are on fire. No really, that damn D-Pad is rough! laugh.gif

Main is confirmed as Wing Zero, though I can sub-main Susanowo and Tallgeese III. I really like Dynames but I haven't found a really effective way of using him. He's certainly better than Cherudim but I can't get the sniper rifle to hit reliably unless I catch someone stopping to recover boost. Most attacks can at least track a little so that they'll only miss if the person changes direction.

Later all~

Dude you have no idea how excited I was when I saw that scan of BD-1 getting added. Pikachu_Fragger was over at my place when it happened, he can tell you. LOL. But yeah, apparently they switched from the whole "releasing these four MS on 12/22" to "we're releasing these four MS as DLC, and the first two DLC will be Arche and BD-1 on 12/22." So maybe Freedom will be January's DLC? Cannot WAIT to stomp all over people with Blue Destiny.

EDIT: Oh, forgot to mention that it also shows that they're willing to add DLC MS for series that weren't present in the game originally. This gets my hopes up for things like... oh, I dunno... Gundam Wing TV? RX-78-4/5/6? whistling.gif

Also, the second scan proves that the game itself will be getting updated, which was another thing that people said wasn't going to happen. Dammit Bamco, stop getting my hopes up and making me not regret buying the game! Basically, it says that Network Mode will be getting a free update (as it should be). They're adding ranked matches, the ability to get points (I'm thinking for Trial Mission Mode, but it could just be for the new ranking system), and the ability to do tag-team matches with your friends. That should alleviate the rage that some of us have had playing online and getting teamed up with some random scrub. laugh.gif

My body and wallet are ready. Bring it on, Bamco. Bring it on.

Man, talk about saving money. dry.gif

You realize they did the same thing for GvG, right? And that it took over a year then, too?

If you feel like waiting over a year for another port, then by all means sit back and enjoy the fun that the Japanese players are having while you cry at home with nothing to do. Meanwhile, Famitsu seems to be showing quite well that BandaiNamco is fully willing to provide updates and roster increments to the PS3 game.

Full Boost is kinda old news, by the way... you only just now saw it? It was revealed last month and has been on the official EXVS website for over a week.

Really, I think the difference here is that as opposed to the PS2 and PSP where once the game is released that's all there is to it, on PS3 the developers have a chance to keep the game fresh via network updates. Yes, they could just release it and say that enough is enough, but they're not doing that. I think we should see what they have to offer.

I mean, come on. Blue Destiny. 'Nuff said. awesome.gif

QUOTE (Tessou @ Today, 8:28 AM)

Efreet Custom? It's never appeared in any VS series, but it's been playable in other games. It's been in Lost War Chronicles for PS2, the SD Gundam G-Generation series (PS2/PSP/Wii) and I seem to recall another game it was in for Wii that I can't remember the name of off the top of my head.

EDIT: The Wii game is "0079 MS Sensen," and the Efreet was also in the Gundam Battle series for PSP.

An Efreet recently appeared in Gundam Unicorn episode 4 (along with practically every Zeon MS ever) so it would be pretty cool if they added it via DLC later. Yuu needs a rival! That way he can say the only line he had in Encounters in Space:

NO, NIMBUS!!!

Also, video for the DLC is up on the main website:

http://www.aemedia.org/2011/11/tbs-1-9773.html

Crappy Chinese site stealing info from Japanese blogs without bothering to give source. Thankfully my Google-fu is strong, so here we go. The original source for this information is from 2ch, so take from that what you will. It doesn't mean it's not accurate, but at the same time it is a message board. Sources:
http://toro.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/arc/1323185568/
http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:alsqs9NGnU4J:www.alpha-st.co.jp/column/clm_153.html+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us
http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:QEAgaBkfDpQJ:www.alpha-st.co.jp/column/clm_154.html+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us

First off, it looks to me like Full Boost is just an upgrade to EXVS Arcade. It's not the gigantic change we're used to from "DX" games. That is, things like AvZ->AvZII+ and GvG->GvGN+. There are some minor changes to the system itself but otherwise it looks to work the same as the old game. It is adding in mobile suits that we already are getting on PS3 via DLC. Though it does announce some MS that weren't announced for PS3, keep in mind that the full DLC release schedule has not been announced. There were not that many additions listed for the MS roster on Full Boost so far, so it's entirely possible that the MS they have announced will be added.

Basically, what I'm trying to say is... it looks like Full Boost is just bringing the arcade version of EXVS into line with the PS3 version. It doesn't look like it's going to fundamentally change the game itself. I'm hopeful that I'm right, because that would be an excellent move. It also explains why there was no location testing for Full Boost and why there is less than four months between its announcement and its full release in arcades.

Anyway, enough speculation. Here's what's been posted.

MS Added:
-Zeong
-Gyan
-The-O
-Freedom Gundam
-Strike Noir
-Dynames
-Blue Frame Astray 2nd L
-Gundam Throne (Doesn't say which, but I'm guessing Zwei)
-Gundam Stargazer
-Blue Destiny Unit 1

Note that The-O, Freedom, Dynames, Blue Frame, Throne Zwei and BD-1 are already in EXVS for PS3 (Zwei is an NPC in Trial Mission Mode). That means the only real 'new' ones are Zeong, Gyan, Strike Noir and Stargazer. It's entirely possible that they'll get added as DLC, which would make the PS3 and arcade versions even in terms of their roster. However, there were changes made to existing MS, so let's jump into that as well.

Changes to existing MS:
-RX-78-2
Summon now summons a Core Fighter and/or Guntank instead of just Guntank. Doesn't specify if it's both or one at a time or what the condition is.
-Nu Gundam
Now has a Burst Attack called "Nu Last Shooting."
-Gundam DX
Subweapon is now summoning Airmaster Burst and Leopard Destroy.
-Wing Zero Custom
Apparently the charged main weapon is now twin buster rifle, and the special main is now rolling twin buster rifle. They're reversed from EXVS.
-Gouf Custom
Now has a Burst Attack where he rapidly attacks with the heat rod.

According to the article, while there were still units in the demo without Burst Attacks, the final version of Full Boost would include Burst Attacks for all units.

That's the important stuff. There were minor other details listed (such as ZZ Gundam being able to summon Zeta Zaku ROFL) but that's the basics. We'll see how Bamco handles this one.

That DLC trailer reminded me why I love Keiji Fujiwara's voice in pretty much anything he does.

So this full boost addition is pretty much like the Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune 3 to Maximum Tune 3DX for say?

Kind of looks that way. It appears to be a minor upgrade from the previous game. Some new suits, adding missing features to old suits (for instance, it was kinda BS that the attract movie for Gundam Seed Destiny showed Infinite Justice using METEOR when it couldn't in-game which has been fixed in Full Boost), etc. It doesn't look like a fundamentally different game with completely different mechanics (SEE: Gundam vs Gundam -> Gundam vs Gundam NEXT), it just looks like a minor refresh.

I know that business-model-wise it would make more sense to then sell Full Boost as a console port a year from now, but I'm still holding out hope that they'll continue to update the PS3 version of EXTREME VS instead. That they apparently announced "no plans to have a console release for Full Boost" is where my hope comes from. They've never missed a chance for a console port. Why start now?

Because this is their first PS3 game, which means it's the first game they can actually continuously update after its release. Can't do that on PS2 and PSP. So yeah, crossing my fingers. Why isn't it the 22nd already?

Posted by: Nomake Wan Dec 12 2011, 10:22 PM
Okay! So we have here a shitty picture of a new scan for Extreme VS Full Boost! Most of it is stuff we already knew, but it does clarify one point from the Alpha Station leak as well as show off a new confirmed unit!

user posted image

So now we know that the "Gundam Throne" Alpha Station was referring to was Throne Drei, so woot Nena is now a playable pilot. Kugyuuuuuu~! Also, if you look carefully in the bottom-right corner you spot a mobile suit that looks a little off. At first you might thing it's the Delta Plus, but the shield is wrong. That's because it's the RX-81 from the PS3 game Battlefield Record 0081. Yet more side-story MS being added!? I LOVE IT!

Should be fun to see where this goes. Will update once we have a clearer scan.

Sorry to revive this thread, but NomakeWan do you use a fightstick?

I am quite on the edge of buying a cheap one on eBay for $30 and replace the buttons and the joystick with Sanwa parts.
The only concern that I have before I go and buy a fightstick is that, is it mappable? Like can I change the buttons and change what they do?

I still haven't got my copy, after a month has gone by. crying2.gif

I don't use an arcade stick and unless anything's changed NomakeWan doesn't use one either. I feel like the controls are tight enough on the controller that I don't need one.

Never mind I just got a Hori fightstick for $20 from a good friend of mine since he has another fightstick already.

I've played the actual Gundam Extreme vs arcade when I went to Japan for my vacation to Yokosuka. Personally I like the arcade stick feeling on how it feels "natural". I really am not sure on how to explain it but I hope you know what I mean. Hopefully this thread doesn't turn into a debate between controllers and arcade stick since I brought it up. facepalm.gif

Oh well thanks for the reply.

EDIT:

Do any of you guys still play this game? unsure.gif

Right here. Thoroughly disappointed by the lack of DLC but I suppose the 'plus' of it is I now have all the DLC. I'm actually surprised. I mean, Bamco is still releasing monthly DLC for iDOLM@STER which came out before EXVS, yet EXVS only got three DLC packages? What's up with that? I mean sure, okay, Full Boost is location testing as of right now and will be released in April... but so what? Come on, stop being stingy. Give those of us who paid to have the game some love.

Oh well. Anyway, still play, still laugh my ass off every time I try to join an online Shuffle match using Gottrlatan and get kicked/banned. Gee I wonder why? awesome.gif

I just wish I lived closer to my friends and/or my friends actually had a PS3 & the game. It sure would make things a lot easier.

For now, though, I switch between messing around on EXVS and playing iDOLM@STER. Warning you guys right now, don't get into the latter game. It eats souls. ph34r.gif

I agree dude, I was especially dissappointed that since they're done with the patches for this game, that means no custom bgm during online. crying2.gif
Also I do wish I had someone I knew in person that have this game. One of my friend got the game but he sold it when he had the game for only 2 weeks. A rage quitter... facepalm.gif

I do get quite kicked occassionally due to my lack of skills. GP01fb haters...

I play it when Nomake Wan is down south! Still can't get enough of this game. Hilariously enough, OO Gundam is starting to grown on me. Freedom was a little disappointing sadly, but I think that's just because I need to get better with him. His movement options are great, but they seem difficult to master. Can't wait to play it later today! Gonna be awesome./

If I only I lived in LA then I'd be able to meet up with you guys crying2.gif

I have never got any of the DLC suits so I cant really comment on them, but the 00 suits, sure are really good. But I dont use any of them. Also 00 QAN(T) are goddamn everywhere online pinch2.gif

I do the same thing too. However, it makes me want to get my own PS3 just for this game.

Also relevant.

Quan[T] was regarded as a "high-tier" suit along with X-1FC, Master and Strike Freedom. You'll generally see them a lot...especially Master.

Personally I'm just glad that the suits I like are considered "low-tier" because I can use them online without getting yelled at or hated on. Sadly there are a lot of people who play fighting games and only pay attention to tier lists rather than just, you know, playing the game.

Thankfully, everyone I know plays the game to have fun and use suits that they enjoy. It's fun. It's just sometimes...frustrating to play online. awesome.gif

Yeah..Since this weekend I've also changed my opinion of Freedom. Pikachu Fragger, Nomake Wan, and Sensation can vouch for that haha.

As far as I know there are no plans to port EXVS to any other systems. They also specifically denied intentions to port Full Boost to any home system. They might make a new version of the game (like how NEXT was arcade and NEXT PLUS was home) and then release that. It may very well be on Vita if so.

Yes very true, also X2 but at the same time dealing with these "high tier" characters, it's great to go through trial and error against them. Then hopefully they'll become easy later on. But DAT Master Gundam... a tough goddamn cookie I tell ya!
