EARTH DEFENSE FORCE 5

sorry its so long just skip to the end for my real opinion I thought this game was pretty alright at first. I had just finished hard mode EDF 4.1, and came off the high of 4.1 end game. At first I blamed my lack of fun on not having my 4.1 end game weapons but at around at 25% of hard mode campain done I figured out why I wasn't havin fun. In EDF 4.1 you only get weapons for your class and the weapons just get better every new weapon, this leads to being able to stay the same class and just get better weapons for the class as time goes on. the only problem I had with EDF 4.1 system of weapons was if you got a dupe of a weapon you already had you get nothing. But with EDF 5 weapons get upgraded, given to other classes or you get the same weapon you already had but better (in some cases its worse because you can upgrade weapons). In EDF 5 I wasn't getting new weapons I was getting the same weapons but worse of upgrades and after awhile I realized that I kept thinking I didn't have weapons spacific missions (like having no anti air for a mission with only flying enemys). to add on that EDF 5 did some things I didn't like. removed fencer wave dash (I get it was never intended in the first place but it felt fair), Air raiders car call in's re-request points got incresed by a lot, wing divers weapons felt like toys (not enough damage). combine this with the fact that all armor and weapon boxes had a chance to be given to another class and you feel like you don't have the right weapon for the new tanky AF enemys. in short EDF 5 not worth the 50 bucks, just spend 30 on EDF 4.1 and be glad EDF 4.1 weapon system works. EDF 5 is not a bad game its just not nearly as good a 4.1.

Cool enemies, good graphics and neat new story, but the weapon system feels way worse compared to EDF 4.1

Fun

EDF! EDF!
