TyrValein Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 You know they gotta be holding back Roy Fokker for DLC. The profit would be huge. Would be a total mess on Paradoxes with Hikaru trying to keep him from dying and then dooming everyone by doing so, but nothing stops DLC profit, not even time paradoxes. ---- They better have VF-25 Armor packs ¬_¬ Well, we're not so sure there will be any paradoxing happening. I thought we were assuming for the obligatory memory-wipe/all timelines return to normal as per usual for time travel stories of this caliber? As for the Armored Packs, I'm not sure if its in or not but since I didn't see it... I'm more curious about the fact that they made default, non-custom versions of most valkyries (they're grey colored). The VF-25A being in is a nice surprise too. The thing I'm most curious about most though is the valkyrie genealogy. I'm wondering if we get all the valks in a straight progression to the YF-30 through story progression, if there can be gaps in the chart if you rush through the game, or if you can get some valks early if you find their schematics in the field or an enemy drops it (though this would obviously depend on what field you're at, which is probably related to where you are in the game).

SaitouSad Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 (edited) Given the cost of hiring Kamiya to do some lines and the comparatively small number of SDFM fans compared to frontier fans, then add in approval, QA and digital publishing costs and i cant see how it would end up as anything other than a financial loss actually. Regardless, I dont see the point in speculating further at this point. If theres any Day 1 DLC, Japanese PSN will have the relevant information posted tomorrow. In the recent VF polls, Roy Fokker's VF-1S topped the charts. I would be the least bit surprised if they released him as a DLC. As for story wise, I see very little issue with this, since he will likely be a free-play mode only character, and by my guess, there will be very little interaction (plot wise or at all) for all of the different timeline characters in free play mode.

There's a free mode? I know that once you beat the game you can new game+ but I didn't know there was a free mode. It would be nice if they let you set up opponents to fight against like in the PSP games. Quote

distantmantra Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 Ami Ami just sent me the payment notification email for the regular edition. Quote
Kaldar5 Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 Well can you at least tell us what store you got it from so early? :ph34r: San-nin-ninja? Thanks, I'll check them out. Quote
SaitouSad Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 There's a free mode? I know that once you beat the game you can new game+ but I didn't know there was a free mode. It would be nice if they let you set up opponents to fight against like in the PSP games. New Game + eh? I was under the impression it was (and likely be) some free play mode, with extra missions and etc... Special indeed :-) フラゲ！.JPG Look forward to impressions Quote
Renato Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 Yeah, you guys are such bastards! As penance, you have to write all the English translations to all the menus and dialogue by the day of official release! Quote
eggy99 Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 Amiami has shipped my LE. SHAO! PAI! LON! Quote
xrentonx Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 Amiami is paid! Now to wait for the shipping confirmation Quote
antibiotictab Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 One Niconico user has already started live streaming of the game right now. Well, only in Japan, maybe? Tochiro, hurry up! Or zangyo? Quote
Kaldar5 Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 Yeah, you guys are such bastards! As penance, you have to write all the English translations to all the menus and dialogue by the day of official release! Right. We talked earilier about starting a new thread with game info. This is no longer "New game announced" While sites like GameFaqs and the like will certainly have playthrus and basic translations... We are the ones that care enough to translate STORY, and probably the only ones obcessed enough to do it. Otherwise it probably just won't be done. Also, are there codes for Macross live crossover concert tickets? Supposedly there are 100 tickets to be given away to limited edition buyers. For now, I'm signing off this topic till I get mine, don't wanna spoil the unboxing. Quote
Tochiro Posted February 27, 2013 Author Posted February 27, 2013 The official English title is Voices across the galaxy btw. Just starting to play now :-) Quote
VF-15 Banshee Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 (edited) On the livestream, I saw them checking out their Valks in the hangar, test-transforming through the three modes and Leon flying into something that looks like a Northhampton-class? Hmm, here I thought SMS Ouroboros had a Macross Quarter-class... Heh, there is one phrase that all Macross fans can relate to: Deculture!! Edited February 27, 2013 by VF-15 Banshee Quote

I should be in bed right now, it's about 4:30 AM right now. It looks like you might have changed your VF-0's paint scheme from blue to a kind of turquoise? If so, that is FRAKIN' AWESOME. Quote
Gian Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 OMG, OMG, my order @cdjapan is in "In Shipping Process" Can't wait!!! Quote
senator02103 Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 Fan subbed play through anyone? I wish I knew Japanese! =/ Quote
TyrValein Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 (edited) Huh. I missed the stream cause I was sleeping. Well, I'm watching a different one now. Thank god for streamers. http://live.nicovideo.jp/watch/lv128170738 link for those who were wondering. Its one of the few I can find in HD. Edited February 27, 2013 by TyrValein Quote
Tochiro Posted February 27, 2013 Author Posted February 27, 2013 Does anyone remember that feeling they got the first time they stepped out onto the world map in FF7? Or was first let loose in a liberty City? Yeah, just had one of those moments. Eegads there's....so much to shoot! Quote

Or was first let loose in a liberty City? Yeah, just had one of those moments. Eegads there's....so much to shoot! Yeah, from the streams I'm looking at it looks like there's a lot more space (and enemies) to the fields than any of us even guessed. Hm...seems like there was a mixup for my AmiAmi shipping...I could have sworn I selected EMS but it says its shipping under SAL...That's not good. Well, I still have our second copy coming from Play-Asia, but its almost release day and it hasn't even shipped yet...anyone else ordered from Play-Asia and their copy hasn't shipped yet?

SaitouSad Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 (edited) There's another stream available here http://live.nicovideo.jp/watch/lv128186640?ref=ser&zroute=search&keyword=%E3%83%9E%E3%82%AF%E3%83%AD%E3%82%B930 Maybe it is just me, but the map looks a little small (perhaps it explains why the flying speed was reduced). Anyway not an issue, as it looks like i'll be lost flying around anyway hahaha Also, saw him accessing his hangar. Apart from the VF-0A, he seemed to have the DLC YF-29 (Sheryl/Ranka decal ver) available. I guess the DLC codes unlock those for use immediately? Edit: Found another one with pretty good streaming http://www.ustream.tv/channel/gine22 Edited February 27, 2013 by SaitouSad Quote

I dunno, it looked like the YF-29 Marking had really low stats. Comparable with the VF-0 almost, though its maximum tuning was higher. I'm sure they did that so people wouldn't get an unfair advantage from using it so early in the game. I was waiting for him to use the gunpod's beam mode! Edit: Found another one with pretty good streaming http://www.ustream.tv/channel/gine22 Nice! Better quality, thanks! Edited February 27, 2013 by TyrValein Quote

I got booted off that stream (limited for free users).The 2nd link I posted above is pretty smooth. The guy's using the VF-1 (probably VF-1A). Interestingly enough, saw him use an item to "revive" himself every time he got shot down and was about to crash land... Edited February 27, 2013 by SaitouSad Quote
