Is the general consensus that Maxi boost is worse than full boost?

 

I think the general consensus - in simplest form - is that the new overdrive mechanic broke a lot of the balance and neutral game focus of FB that a number of players like. There are positive things and other negative things, but overdrive is very resoundingly disliked.

When you use S drive do some suits gain an amekyan? On several occasions when using Rozen Zulu I felt that I did a fast fall when S drive was activated but I'm not sure what attacks do it.

It's not that suits gain an amekyan. It's that they can cancel any projectile into each other which makes them free fall; basically means that Rozen Zulu can do AC -> Main in S-Drive.

Is the general consensus that Maxi boost is worse than full boost?

 

With some of the recent patches, the game has gotten a bit better. F-Drive is no longer the dominant force in the game, and it was the thing making most people dislike it. F-Drive itself is still good but generally aside from the few melee-centric suits, The game has returned to being centered around S-Drive and BR-based play.

[note: as mentioned before, this phrase " 技発動前の移動速度を、より引き継ぐようにしました" appeared several times. I do believe it means the attack inherits your movement speed, but if there's a better TL for this or I've misinterpreted please feel free to correct me]

This was the one phrase that was tripping me up too...but yeah, I also assume it means carries over any movement momentum from before the attack into the attack.

Finallyyyyy~ 

 

I'm not sure how the extra second of startup on BC will work, but I'm loving these buffs

Good, but I was kinda hoping for the funnels to get their original "one beam=flinch" that they used to have instead of the way it is now.

Hi guys, I am new to this forum. I have been playing Gundam Vs. games for a while and know the basic mechanic of this series. I have a question. Does Taiwan have EXVS Maxi Boost in aracde, or is it only available in Japan and Hong Kong? Appreciate your answer.

 

 

The box locator on the official website shows only locations for Japan and HK, so :/

 

Nope nope nope nope nope.

 

Taipei has 4 cabs of Maxiboost at Tom's World in Ximending in the Wan Nian building since March?

 

If Taipei has it, I'm pretty sure that the other big cities in Taiwan has it as well

Mm, do you happen to have a twitter? We could coordinate these sorts of things in the future. I think you are in one of the Skype groups I am in so I could say something there as well, and we could just split the workload or something.

In case it wasn't obvious, F91's BC change is that it is active for a second longer ( 発動していられる時間を長くしました。(+1秒) )

 

The Japanese used in the official bandai namco patch notes is often kind of weird, so if you see weird phrasing like what someone mentioned earlier, it's not random, they just phrase stuff kinda weird (my JP friends say so)

I see, that makes much more sense. I was hoping they'd adjust it since it's where the unit excels and Blitz' on/off cloaking seemed much stronger. Just another plus on top of the other long overdue (imo) buffs and cancel routes.

Whoops, my bad on the F91 mistranslation. It was right at the end so I think I read it a little too fast. Edited original post to be fixed. 

 

And yeah the Japanese is a little weird. Half the time I have to turn on the game and mess around a little bit just to make sure I understand what they are talking about, which is tough when they talk about units like Brave or Penelope that I don't have access to, so if someone who has had a chance to actually play MB can tell that those are improperly/strangely translated just let me know and I'll fix it.

I'm liking those F91 buffs a lot. Glad they decided to buff it seeing how his one of the lowest health in it's class. Hopefully more footage comes out soon. Not really disappointed with Dreadnaught H being added. Really hoping they add more niched gundams like it in the future like MK-V, but all I can do is dream for now.
