Could the Gyan have ever been a viable replacement for the Gelgoog?

No. Even in the series where they give it normal (read:Gelgoog) weapons it was just about average but without the Gelgoog's maneuverability and modularity.
Play Gihren's Greed.
Maybe
>>14012443
Only once upgraded intoNobunagyan
>>14012469
When did they even bother to give it Gelgoog weapons?
>>14012443
You just asked that if trash could replace a machine equal to Gundam

>Char's Gelgoog and Gyan along with Johnny Ridden's + Shin's HM Gelgoog and HM Gyan have worse Stealth Ranking than the originals while Ramba Ral's Gelgoog and Gyan along with the Black Tri-Star's HM Gelgoog and HM Gyan have better Stealth Ranking

The Gelgoog is equal to the Gundam
>>14012443
Maybe if it had a beam rifle.

>>14013404
Everything in Gundam explodes when hit by beams
even empty space
>>14013444
Fair point. I think the first MGS movie probably has more explosions than any Michael Bay movie.

MSG.
Wasn't there going to be some Metal Gear movie or something? What happened with that? Konami sweep it under the rug?

Otacon said Origin isn't canon so fuck off

Keep the sabre as a secondary weapon, give it a proper ranged gun, dump the shield or remove the crappy micro-missle system.
Basically just replace the whole thing; melee weapons are always a bad main weapon, and the gimmick shield is only good for laying traps and defensive fighting which defeats the point of using an MS.
>>14013404
Generally they explode

kek, looks like someone doesn't know much gundam

Even in Gihren's Greed, it's not worth mass-producing. Shooting is far more important than melee in battle, and most Gyans have the ranged attack power of a Super Soaker. Even some of your best pilots tend to get shot down more often when stuck in Gyans.

I don't believe they did, however they homogenized the gelgoog and Gyan into the Galbaldy series.
You're supposed to pair them with Rick Doms.
>>14012443
Gyan is basically space Gouf. goes well as support for Gelgoog
Gyan Cannon is probably one of the most balanced Gyans, has the same maneuvrability as the normal Gyan. But then even Gelgoog Cannon is overpowered.

The general trend seems to be Gyan have equal, or better stats to its Gelgoog counterpart, same terrain ratings, but Gelgoogs have better weapons and are cheaper.

>Could the Gyan have ever been a viable replacement for the Gelgoog?
The Gyan exemplifies what's wrong with the whole Gundam as a real robot series. The design is just so fucking stupid and retarded that its place is next to Mazinger not in some pseudo-realistic mecha anime.
