Earth Defense Force 5

Sell me on it. Is it worth $30? I see it on Zig Forums sometimes.

100+ missions that has you defending the Earth from monstrosities and aliens alike with likable NPCs and oodles of wepaons. Bar none one of the finest video games ever created. Play on Hard mode.

Japs and Zig Forums still play(s) it, it’s a blast.

Euros and Americans, too. There's 300+ people on EDF 5 PC at any time. You can always find a game, and the voice commands ensure camaraderie across all nations.

So it's multiplayer and mission-based? I know that you can get into games quickly without much of the handholding bullshit modern games love so much. Is it basically just a third person shooter?

Imagine you're an exterminator hired by the entire Earth with access to futuristic high grade military hardware, including but not limited to a crazy satellite laser weapon operator's literal death ray from the Earth's orbit, walking body armour suits that wield handheld pile bunkers or actual heavy artillery that usually requires vehicles and an actual Pacific Rim kaiju fighting robot.
And what size army would need such absurd fire power to fight against? A fuckton of B movie monsters, just way too many fucking aliens. They literally crawl out the walls.
You know all those mods for Skyrim/fallout that make your most powerful spell/nuke launcher fire 20+ shoots instantaneously? That's a legitimate weapon in endgame and it still doesn't take care of all the insects that come at you.
That's the game.

It’s a third person defend the planet simulator.

It's the Starship Troopers game you always wanted.

Up to 4 player multiplayer.
>Is it basically just a TPS?
Yes and no. You ain't played a TPS at this scale.

Yes, it's basically just a third person shooter with no gimmicks, just big open levels full of destructible buildings and a shit ton of bugs and aliens.

Is the ps4 version still active?

Bros, what the fuck do you do in the DLC underground missions?

Large scale third person shooter against hundreds of enemies per mission. It has good longevity too. Once you start playing at the higher difficulty levels you almost have to play it like an MMO raid, being careful of how many enemies you pull at one time without getting overwhelmed.

Also: you get to punch a godzilla while in a giant robot.

EDF6 was announced so maybe wait for that.

Flame turret cheese.

For 2021 you dork.

Your point?

The screenshots give me Daemon Ex Machina vibes.

>No, wait for the sequel that's going to release sometime after six months. Do not have any fun with the game as it is right now

That's cool and all, but Square Wingdivers.

I don’t know, I skipped the current console generation.
THEY CAME TO OUR EARTH IN A FURY
AND THOUGHT AT THEIR MIGHT WE’D BE DISMAYED
BUT THEY SOON HELD A DIFFERENT STORY
WHEN THEY MET THE WING DIVER BRIGADE

You realize it will be even cheaper before EDF6 comes out right? That's what happened with EDF4.1

If an alium ever abducts your ass and asks about vidya gaymes you show him EDF.
Firstly, he will recognize you as a being of superior taste and secondly he'll know to stay the fuck off your lawn.

The game is fucking hard, i need multiple tries every mission on normal mode

And nobody is playing EDF 4.1 anymore. It's not a fucking secret that 90% of the joy is with mates or randoms who become mates over battle after battle. user can wait until EDF 6 is on the doorstep, or he can play now with over 300+ players making for easy game finding. Fucking retard.
Don't play on normal. You get worse weapon rewards.

It's on sale on PSN as well

>they ask you why you’re smiling while they’re probing your anal cavity
>BECAUSE NOW WE HAVE SOMETHING TO ENTERTAIN OURSELVES WITH DO YOU HAVE A MOMENT TO TALK ABOUT OUR LORD AND SAVIOR STORM ONE

Delete this immediately. Wing Divers would never go for Rangers or Air Raiders.

I bought this game on release and did not regret it.

It was a blast playing through this with my bro in split screen (I hex edit the game so it'd span two monitors).

Do pc bros prefer kB+m or controller?

This game is popular enough that there are even lobbies all the time for people who pirated the game.

Wing divers are purest maidens and only into /ll/

I’m on PC and switch depending on what I’m playing. Ranger and air raider is mouse and keyboard, wing diver and fencer is controller.

Hmm maybe I should try switching too. Spamming left shift makes my pinky sore playing fencer.
