Oh, I'm not saying it's easy by any means, also the fact that your own attacks have some lag makes it very important that you be mindful of what you yourself are doing.

From my memories of lp2 on ps3. The roll is like the best thing ever. It felt even better doing it in rathalos armor.

Like in MH, the roll in LP has A LOT of invincibility frames

So that train battle is one of the most incredible things I've ever done in a video game. You had to, in concert, keep the train cool, load and energize special shells that could be gather from around the train, man side guns to weaken the boss and fend off lesser akrid, and occasionally facilitate the actual turning of the gun turret so you could wheel it around fast enough to actually take the shot. It was fucking unbelievable to be down in the engine room, working the cooling system to put out all the fires, and then just have the entire train shake and my vision be blurred because Ziiro had taken a shot. You have to do it to really get a feeling for how nuts it is.

Nor we fought a texas-sized sand worm in a gigantic guntrain with a helicopter on the back and Ziiro manning the cannon and Bal knee-deep in dead arachnids in the engineering bay and me hustlin' shells like a stone cold nigga and holy fuck

don't worry we got this all done so you don't need to play it now it's cool

The previously linked video does not do the fight justice.

I was helping Kabbage from time to time scramble around the top deck to get the shells loaded, but he was pretty good on keeping the ammo coming, so I kept just firing them after they were energized. Basically after I pulled the trigger, my entire screen would erupt in a terrifying, quake-causing firestorm. It was absolute awesome. I can't wait to do it again with 4 people on a higher difficulty at some point.

That's one thing Lost Planet 2 has a thing going for it that you really don't notice right away. Every weapon and everything you use/do (Grappling hooks, mechs, enemies) has a great sound and weight to it.

Hey, just wanted to let people know who were maybe reading this and considering the game:

It's still 33% off on steam. Sure, it's not 50% off, but it's still cheap~

i got a chance to do TRAIN FIGHT yesterday. That video is sadly a terrible showcase of it, since the fight is fucking lunacy and i don't think there's any way to capture it! There always seems to be (n+1) things for your (n) players to do, and any time anyone asks anyone else to do anything it's in the "AAAA" voice, and oh gosh it's just so much fun.

As if there was any doubt, it's been confirmed that Keiji Inafune knows how to make extremely good games.

Train fight has these options available to you: Bring ammo, load ammo, energize loaded ammo, man gun, help gun turn faster, man crane that brings special ammo but only if the gun is in neutral position, man side guns and shoot weak spots on the boss to make him a bit east to take, shoot down other akrid, or put out fires with the coolant system. I may be forgetting something. Oh yeah, you can also jump in a helicopter if you want and perform the side gun task from that instead. That MAY be everything. This whole time everything is trying to blow up your train.

Keep in mind that getting from the lower decks to the gun deck is kind of hard because the gun deck is actually one huge piece that turns as the gun does.

Norondor · « **Reply #32 on:** January 01, 2011, 06:16:18 PM »

fortunately, that's why you have a grappling hook.

unfortunately, that's why the akrid suicide bombers are there.

I appreciate the variety of locations, but I wish you spent a little bit more time in the jungle area. It's has one of the best tile sets, with all the foliage, water, and jungle pirate ramshackle construction.

So with a bit of mixing and matching I've come up with my steam punk warrior. I imagine him coming from a world where the industrial revolution never ended and the skies are black with soot, and everyone wears protective suits that, themselves, pollute.
