Can we talk about the Earth Defense Force series? I've played this series from the very first one on the 360 up until the one pictured. Each one is pure and mindless fun killing nothing but bugs and robots with whatever manner of destruction you can think of.

I mainly play as the Wing Diver as she's pretty much a Ranger with the ability to fly. The fact that weapons rely on energy may suck as it shares your boost but it makes for some tough decisions between murdering or escaping.

Fencer, at least for me, felt very tough to even slog through the first level on normal.. Moves incredibly slow and the weapons take a fair bit of time to reload. Air Raider I've only touched upon once as he's mainly a support class.

What do you guys think? Which did you play first? Which is your favourite?

The only ones I got to play were Insect Armageddon, 2 (emulated PSP version) and 2025. 2025 is easily the best. Wish I could play 4.1 but I'm not getting a PS4 just for that game.

Fencer becomes the best class, and perhaps even the easiest class you can use to beat certain levels on Inferno difficulty, once you unlock more of his weapons and learn dash canceling.

I've pretty much stuck with the Ranger. I have my hands on a Lysander 2 (thanks to hardest difficulty grinding on that Erginus mission) and it carries me through most of Normal and Hard. In comparison to the others, Ranger is just way more powerful with his no nonsense straightforward weapons.

Despite all the quirky buff type gear and equipment, the Air Raider's array of vehicles and defensive tools are all too weak in almost every regard. How all of his stuff is burdened with limited ammo, long cooldown times and the need to build up points to call in his gear makes him too much of a liability even with a team of friends.

I've hardly done much with the Wing Diver, even after finding some powerful weapons, her style doesn't gel with me.

I have a high level Blasthole Spear with preposterous range for the Fencer and it like the Lysander, lets me chew through virtually everything. Combined with some generic hammer to chain together the jump and dash movements as well as some howitzers, I find the Fencer pretty fun, but still too sloooow.

>>336333217
Whilst most of that stuff is undoubtedly legit, what's the deal with SteamDB? EDF was "Earth Defense Forth", the Journey devs outright said they don't develop outside of PS when they were asked and Half-Life 3's a given. I've even seen people here posting Bloodborne as being in there at one stage last year. Can anyone add submissions that don't necessarily get taken down or something?

Should have bought the console it's exclusive to then? Dumb PCuck, you'll just pirate it anyway.

There's like 5 EDF fans on /v/ and they are so fucking proud of it being an PS4 exclusive for now. I love how nobody will fucking play with you once the game is out on PC because they remember how god awful you were in the threads about it.

Na, every EDF thread on /v/ is filled with "TO PROTECT OUR MOTHER EARTH" morons that never actually discuss the games.

I'll definitely play it. Over 200 hours in 2025 and still looking forward to the PC release.

I also play/played Ranger on 2025, stopped playing on Hardest because I got fed up with the inconsistent bullshit difficulty. I had the best AF and the Lysander II yet some stages are incredible hard to clear.

It's not begging if it's a certainty.

I'll keep waiting.

Why do you have to get angry and defensive whenever someone says "I want it to be on PC"? What could possibly be bad about EDF getting released on another platform and more people being able to play it?

No, it doesn't. I was off though, it's not $90. It's $79.75.

You're supposed to grind easier levels on Inferno for better weapons

If by "best AF" you mean AF 100 and you still have trouble on Hardest then I don't know what to say to you

>>336336430
Exhibit A.
>>
>>336336414
Do you mean the game+DLC? Because only the mission packs are important, and one was free for a while.

Yeah, no. EDF is all about the weapons you get, you can't say the weapons aren't important. The only things you could easily pass on are the vehicle recolours.

4.1 is coming for PC right?


Right?

The Gleipnir, Ifrit, Blood Storm and Volatile Napalm were free DLC in 2025, they were trash level <5 weapons and I bet the other weapons are too

Look, bruh.

In order for devs to understand that the PC ports are even worth it, they need sales.

If the game doesn't even meet simple pc port expectations in sales they either won't do it again or just ignore PC altogether when the next game is being made.

Pirating a game you really want is a BAD thing.
Pirating the games you don't want is a GOOD thing.

>>336336186
Port beggars are so plentiful and loud people just want to see them get fucked, even if when it doesn't benefit the game in any way.

Where the fuck do you live?

>>336337147
Who cares? You're not getting the game anyway.
Go play Insect Armageddon.

>>336337204
Australia.

Every single game that's on both PSN and Steam is massively overpriced on the PSN by comparison, even taking into account the extra cost of the exchange rate on Steam. If 4.1 does come out on Steam it'll undoubtedly be half the total price at worst.
