Everytime I see an overwhelmingly positive take on this game it is a vindicating feeling. It feels like a culmination of everything that came before it. Assault really is a true and faithful follow up to StarFox 64 (while still giving fans of Adventures a bone too). It is everything a good sequel should be. It takes motifs of what came before, turns them on their head, redefines them and or expands on them. I think the only other game in this series that does this well is StarFox 2 and even then, Assault has more thru-line from 64 than 2 has with SF1.

This game is sooo close to being the best game in the series. If it had the branching path’s and/or more missions, more stuff to do in Single Player after beating the game, more objective variety in on-foot missions, and better sound design (in terms of sound effects), this could have been undisputed. But even without all that, this is one of my top 5 favorite games of all time.

i feel like the big question is, where do you go after fighting the hive mind? I think a new starfox game should probably expound upon earlier story points because that's where the most potential for an emotionally driven story probably lies. Try to tie things together in a way that makes the aparoids seem like an important overarching side mission everyone was forced to go on, so basically now we're getting back to whatever everyone's lives were about before the aparoids appeared as a starting story point. As someone who doesn't know too much starfox lore outside of assault, i think wolf could either become the main villain, or what vegeta is to goku in some ways. Cause i think one of the hard parts would be coming up with a new villain, without seeming forced. I think the idea of the aparoids in particular was seriously skirting this line, they could have been very extremely boring and uninteresting but were somehow handled well and made for a pretty beautiful looking enemy too...*coughs* Starfox Assault is peak starfox to my mind, if the series is continued, it should take most of its ques from Assault. namely in lore progression, character design, and characterization. It just needs to find a way to flow and progress naturally...

Nice to see a retrospective on the 2nd-best Star Fox game ever made! I think this game could've used more levels. I would've loved to see some underwater and hyperdrive stages in SF Assault, like what we got on the N64. I felt like SF64 had more level variety, although SF Assault had more gameplay variety with the on-foot Halo stages. With that said, this game ages better than SF SNES, and this is coming from someone who played SF SNES first. That game was impressive for its time, but those frame-rate problems were why I prefer SF64 and SF Assault. Whenever I hear a SF fan rant about how Nintendo needs to make a proper follow-up to SF64, I always think, "well, buddy, did you buy SF Assault...?".

I never understood the hate for Star Fox Assault; loved playing it not only single player (the Arwing sections were as they should, and I found the TPS sections actually cool) but also SO MUCH TIME in multiplayer, often the on-foot maps just to grab that stupidly powerful Bazooka and shoot my brothers in the face lmao Also people really swore off on Star Fox Zero when they should be aware that it is a miracle SF fans even got a new game in first place. Just ask the people waiting for anything new after Kid Icarus Uprising, F-Zero GX, and DEFINITELY ask any Metroid fans how it felt like before Samus Returns and Dread happened at all. If anything, the most hope for Star Fox is a port of Zero on the Switch with new controls, but if that is not what Nintendo's looking forward to do (which Platinum Games themselves seem to confirm)...then they better get comfortable to leave poor Fox in his coffin for another decade... (Oh and Ex-Zodiac too; basically an indie game made to be like Star Fox 64. It is the closest thing people will have to a new Star Fox game...and a "dream" one for that matter since it is all building on top of the favorite child that is SF64's gameplay)
@JonathanAllen191 Жыл бұрын
It really is a shame how poor Star Fox Zero did financially. I personally really enjoyed the controls and thought they were immersive but also understand why so many people could never get accustomed to it. I won't ever get over it just reusing 64's plot though, huge missed potential there and just makes the whole product feel like it's "been there, done that." They should've just continued from Assaults plot with either a game that takes place in between assault and command or just make command non-canon because literally why did anyone think that game having 10 vastly different endings would be a good idea. I know this response has been all over the place lol but I really do think the initial dismissal of assault back in the day was simply because Fox was out of the arwing again, so people associated that with adventures and wrote it off. Thanks for watching!

I just wish this series didn't do what the Sonic series does, where it lays the groundwork for some really cool stuff and then immediately throws it away and reinvents the wheel instead of building on that foundation. Assault is, by the way, my favorite game in the series too. It has some flaws, but they're mostly about balancing gameplay types throughout the levels. But man, the taste we got of changing between vehicles mid-mission to keep track of different objectives was so good, and I wish it'd get perfected. I don't expect it to though; this game unfortunately didn't sell very well, and that's all that really matters to companies in the end.

as someone who actually prefers the original SNES star fox to star fox 64 (i still like both games fine - i just don't like how nintendo cartooned everything up with SF64 and made the atmosphere a lot more, i dunno, goofy, than the first game) star fox assault honestly always felt like more of a worthy sequel to the original star fox than star fox 64 did to me. i like that it sticks closer to the original arwing design too, which i always thought was a lot cooler looking than SF64's design. and i like how assault carries more of the original game's sense of depth and gravitas that wasn't quite as deep or serious in SF64. maybe the real problem with the star fox franchise is that it took argonaut software and namco - not nintendo - to make the most truly groundbreaking and interesting games in the franchise, whereas nintendo themselves have just made pretty-good - to - ok games in the franchise. 🤷♂

Star Fox 64 will always be my favorite, but Star Fox Assault will always be a close second for me just because of the story, soundtrack and stakes alone. Assault is such a great and fun game, I wish Star Fox would make a great comeback, where Fox himself is now like James Mccloud, and his son is the new main character with a brand new threat to the galaxy. The Switch is one of Nintendo’s popular consoles at the moment, they could surely come up with a great Star Fox game if they wanted to, it would surely sell.
@wordsayer196 ай бұрын
I've only played Assault once in my adult life, compared to literal thousands of hours in SF64, so my perspective is obviously biased, but I think most defenders of Assault (or other Star Fox follow-ups) kind of miss the point of the criticism. To me, Assault suffers from what I've come to call Banjo-Tooie Syndrome. Banjo Kazooie was very polished in multiple ways. It had large, intricate, and interesting levels, but not so large as to be overwhelming. There were clear formulas to each level, so you knew what to expect: 10 Jiggies, 100 Notes, 2 Honeycomb Pieces, and an occasional Mumbo Jumbo you needed to find tokens for. Banjo-Tooie, on the other hand, took the scale of the world and dialed it up to 11. Bigger worlds, more collectibles, more boss-fights, tons of interconnectivity between levels. All things that *sound* like they would make the game better, but paradoxically made it less fun to many people, myself included. In BK, I could trust that most things in a level could be completed before leaving for the next one. But in Tooie, I always felt like I had to skip half the level on the first pass because I needed a late-game ability, or an obscure secret tunnel from who-knows which other level. It was overwhelming to the point of being un-fun. In BK, I never wanted to put down the controller until I had collected every Jiggy and every Note. In Tooie, I just wanted the game to be over, because there was too much to backtrack for. To be clear, I'm not saying Banjo-Tooie was a bad game, but in it's ambition, it lost sight of the polish and charm that made the original so great. So it alienated a large portion of it's fans, while non-fans had no reason to play it. To me, Assault does the same thing. Everything about SF64 is very polished. It's cinematic, engaging, replayable, and challenging. The pace never slows too much. The controls are intuitive and clean. The physics are solid and dynamic. The scoring system is straightforward but deep. There is a low skill-floor - so it's beginner friendly - with an impossibly high skill-ceiling for those who want to push for the best scores. Assault, just like Tooie, increases the cinematics, scope, and variety, which are all good things. It just doesn't do any of them particularly well. The grounded sections have clunky controls and unclear objectives, which kill the pace of any playthrough. The scoring system uses arbitrary multipliers, which makes it harder to understand and less fun to optimize. The short draw-distance makes it annoying and impractical to hunt down enemies in All-range mode. Even the Arwing's physics feel sluggish. 64's Arwing had forward momentum and it took time to turn the aiming reticle, as if it were a real starfighter. In Assault, it's more like they took a slow-moving camera, added a free-aiming reticle that moves anywhere at any speed, then slapped a ship on top to make it look better. I know these are all nit-picky, small details, but that's kind of the point. They are small things that a lot of people, critics included, have trouble articulating or even understanding. But they add so much to the game in ways that scope and ambition can't. And for the die-hard 64 fans, playing something like Assault can be incredibly frustrating, because it doesn't have any of the small things that made them fall in love with the first game. Most critics have trouble articulating it, so the frustration often manifests in scapegoats like "Fox shouldn't leave the ship", but the real problem lies in *how* those sections were implemented. Again, Star Fox Assult is not a bad game. I would even call it a good game. But it doesn't have the key details that made Star Fox 64 a masterpiece. Trying new things with a sequel is admirable. But that ambition will always fall short if it's at the expense of polish and attention to detail.

I think it is such a crime that Miyamoto basically tosses Star Fox aside because he "doesn't have any new ideas or experiences to give for the series" but has allowed Mario to rehash the same plot for decades. Especially when you consider that Nintendo has NEVER thought to expand upon Assault's kick ass multiplayer. Like, for how large and detailed the maps were back then, its crazy that they never did an HD Star Fox game with online multiplayer. Like, imagine 8 vs. 8 aerial and on-foot dog fights featuring the extended Star Fox cast. If Splatoon can be Nintendo's wacky approach to an online shooter, why not use Star Fox as the more conventional answer with an actual TDM mode? Just spit ballin' here.

"Do they not have any ground forces" I mean, not really. They've been in long and expensive a multi-year long war around the Lylat system, Corneria basically got assimilated by the Borg and also they only forces that were able to make it Aparoid home world were the small armada that was able to use the jump gate. The fleet fighting Oikanny at the begging of the game was bigger than what they had left at the end of the game. (Which means they're stuck there... right? How do they get back, is it going to take years?, great fox was destroyed, there is no gate and the Arwing isn't really capable of long distance interstellar travel, I think, they never really made the capabilities of travel very clear) The Lylat system and Corneria are so messed up at the end, honestly Command shouldn't be possible.

There is obviously a lot of content they just never got enough time to get around to making.

Honestly the next Star Fox game I want to see is a remake of Star Fox 2 in the style of StarLink: Battle for Atlas... Star Fox Battle For Lylat anyone?

I recommend Rocket Knight Adventures: Re-sparked!, and Bot Vice there like Star Fox Assault in 2d.

R to run was by far the least clunky control layout for this game.

This game was my childhood and I hoped there would be a revival someday. Hell I've had an idea for a game that heavily leans into music. Have the stage react and move along with each level, a lot like Just Shapes and Beats but in 3D

Maybe I missed it, but I feel like you never answered the question as to why Nintendo wants us to forget Assault? But the vibe I get is that it was so different from 64 gameplay-wise and they never revisited the formula since, opting for arwing-only games since then (albeit with some lame gimmicks)

new game star fox: assault zero
@Crazy_Gamer_OG9 ай бұрын
Star Fox 64 is still just overall the better game. -Sound Effects are better, & have more impact -Game was more Balanced (No Easy/Med/Hard modes, just branching paths) -Vehicles are faster (Flying in Assault & Zero has gotten slower & slower) -Land Master segments are on rails, like they should be -Alternate Mission Outcomes (Completed vs Accomplished) -Mission's are short & sweet, Assaults are too long & drawn out (25mins for half a mission is insane) While I still enjoy Assault, playing it gets boring a lot quicker than it does for Starfox 64 & the 3DS version lets you save between missions which all around makes it even better. Even though Assault has an orchestrated OST it mostly never hit the mark like SF64's OST did in a lot of ways. The one good thing Assault did have was great graphics but it was mostly spectacle over substance. I always felt largely disappointed after playing the game on easy & never felt the need or want to play it again after one go through. Even to this day, I've only beaten the game once because it's just not that great of an experience to play. Yet, I've beaten Starfox 64 over a dozen times because it is just _that_ good. Maybe too good, because as you said they set the bar too high, but that's not really a bad thing. The thing is they don't want to try to surpass it & they very easily could if they would just stop with the gimmicky BS. They made Zero fail on purpose because they made it not a video game, but a glorified tech demo & they should never have done that in the first place.

Too many A presses. I'm a fan of how Star Fox Zero plays funny enough. 64 is great. This one seemed slower and maybe I'm just a noob, but idk, plays different, the core gameplay just didn't mesh w me, but I'm trying to see if it will grow on me, and coming here to get some fair takes and perspectives to make that possible. I make decent scores. It's just, slow, and the mashing wears me out when 64 and zero both do 3 shots per press and this one doesn't. Am I missing something? Bombing everything isn't fun, even if you're not locking on, it's kinda lame.

11:01 The snowy planet was always supposed to be Fichina. Despite being called Fortuna in 64, that was just a flub on the localization's part, though the 3DS version fixed it.
