A neat thing about BA2 is that suits from BA1 are still in the game’s code, you just have to GameShark them back in.

@TeamCrossbody Ай бұрын

@@penscrap Yeah, I heard about that and wanted to take a look at it a little more but we were pretty busy while making this video IRL and had to work with what information we gathered by playing a little less gameplay sessions we would have normally done.

I have all three Battle Assault games. I bought thr first pre-owned and wasn't disappointed with it when I bought it. I bought the second and third when both of them released brand new. I had so many amazing good fights with friends and family playing these games.

Just keep playing Battle Assault 2. Wisest words ever said. Though I Wouldn't mind checking the other ones out, but Battle Assault 2 has an online community, with rollback netcode so that's where I'm at!

@grdfhrghrggrtwqqu Battle Assault 2 outclassed BA1 and BA3 is bad (not awful) the only other one that stands out is the GBA game.

The Battle Assault games were my jam back in the day, such a shame that the fourth entry never happened, it'd be amazing with today's mobile suits.

@silvermknight 25 күн бұрын

It's sad that the Battle Assault series is largely forgotten in favor of the Versus series. It's like Bandai thinks that there is only enough room in the market for one type of Gundam game, and god forbid we get a PC port of any of them.

Wish Gundam Battle Master 1 had been covered in this, I think it's an interesting game in the sense that it's kind of a predecessor to bullet hell style fighting games and plays nothing like a traditional fg. Also interesting in how Battle Master 2/Assault 1 built off of it in a more traditional direction. Also worth noting that there's a SEED Destiny fighteer that's a sequel to SEED battle assault, and while it's JP only it's GBA so there's no region lock and the UI is easy to use. Improves on a lot of things in SBA, including adding more normals for every character and making them cancel between each in more ways so autocombos are less essential, along with doubling the size of the roster including a stance switch character and a character with negative edge projectiles.

@@mibeador We wanted to cover Battle Master and understand it has it's own quirks but we thought we'd be explaining the same game three times essentially so we axe to keep it just about the Battle Assault game since that's what we got down here. We didn't know the japanese only GBA game was a different game by the time of making the video and thought it was just another name change similar to Battle Master/ Battle Assault. If we knew, that would've represented the GBA titles.

To be fair, with the way fighting games are designed now and days, I don't think a Battle Assault 4 would be as interestingly designed. In this case just be thankful that Battle Assault 2 is as good as it is.

@TeamCrossbody Ай бұрын

@@Miroku16X Yeah, I don't get why more people don't go over the mechanics of the fighting games they cover or at least attempt to go into more depth. We're still trying to find a method that will make it more entertaining for people but that will come with time, I guess. And yeah, we try to embrace the actual game itself and not let thing like "is this a fighting game?" Get in the way of our view of it. So, yeah, why would we hate on the people who actually like and play these games? We might not like the games themselves some times (SF6, MK1) but we don't attack the people who like them.

I think its just called Seed Desitiny, but it's essentially an expanded version of Seed Battle Assault for GBA with more suits and saving. I'd say it's the definitive version of the game.

16:00 As someone who has played Battle Assault 2 (as well as Battle Master), I find it funny that my mains (Burning, RX-78, Deathscythe) were all S rank. Also Dark Gundam definitely gets the top tier spot. He fits in that niche of not quite a regular character, not quite a full boss type, and it's unblockable attack is so good it's a wonder why they even bothered giving it a Super. As for Ball, from what I remember, yeah, it was a solid, but not amazing suit. It had limited ammo, running out quickly if you depended on it, but it was short and it has a pretty good piston attack.

I main Acguy because it looked like a Gundam Little Bear would pilot. As for good characters I played Gundam. My show knowledge is a little fuzzy, but I wished Pale Rider was in the game. That's my favorite MS - Although I think that was in a game.

Dark is absolutely a boss character through and through. Has super armor, ignores hitstun, and can block. Spamable attacks that most have no answer to. 2 infinites in a corner (one that probably won’t ever come up but it’s there) stupid buttons, and just general boss nonsense.

It's a shame you forgot the other battle assult game on the gba which is only in japanese as it's way more polished. Gundam Seed Destiny Battle Assault

@TeamCrossbody 4 күн бұрын

There wasn't a ton of information about the game, so we thought it was just a simple name change (you know, like Battle Masters 2 to Battle Assault) and didn't think there were changes. In the GBA game, we ended up enjoying it a lot, so if there was a more polished version of the game, we definitely would've used that instead. We just didn't know at the time.

@fluidwolf 7 күн бұрын

I was honestly super disappointed with 3 when I got it not because of its gameplay but honestly because of it tossing like 90% of the previous cast of suits in favor of it just being all SEED and 4 others which might as well be considered guest units. The upgrade system itself tmk is kind of interesting in that it can be used as a cancel iirc and actually upgrades handling and power of the suit which makes for some goofy stuff, though I feel it's too clunky for most. Seeing a bunch of combos for the game is interesting tho at least

@TeamCrossbody 7 күн бұрын

@fluidwolf we just really didn't vibe with it. Had this write-up about the upgrade system, but the game bored us way too fast.
