>Asking game to Ganker
You better off asking your grandma, homie.
get megaton musashi instead
From what I played of the demo, the bosses are good but the levels are bland.
Honestly thought the first level and third were superb. Much more fun in extreme mode though. A lot more action, and no perks. Overload 2 is nice, but the auto-level and weapon retention can make it too repetitive and make combat just a matter of keep missile and c shot, with weapon swap abuse. Extreme actually pushes you to use proper gameplay loop. Which is actually pretty deep if you git gud enough.
Sub bosses are the most fun.IMO. level 6 sucked, but its sub boss was Simon Belmont, so that was cool.
Played a bit of it with a friend via remote play.
Seems like a solid contra game. I didn't enjoy it but that's mostly because of remote play lag.
It just doesn't seem worth 40 bucks.
Fun game, however, music is shit and looks horrendous, also the story is a mess and the oc donut steel streamer girl wasn't necessary
>streamer girl
Who.jpg
he's probably talking about the injun brown girl they added.
Yeah, her. Literally had no reason to be nor to look like that. It's hard to believe the same studio who did contra 4 also made this shit. If anything, it shows that the guys with talent aren't there anymore.
Makes me fear for their clock tower remake
>Literally had no reason to be nor to look like that
but there was a reason. the game takes place in an island near New Zealand, she's from some maori tribe or something.
good game but worth $15 at best. it sucks compared to shattered soldier though, unlike that game this game barely uses the 3D aspects properly.
Shattered Soldier blows.
shattered soldier is fun and is the best 3D contra we'll ever get.
It's a glorified boss rush with shitty muddy textures, trapped on a dead console. It'll never be in a classic Contra collection. It doesn't belong anywhere but the trash bit of 5th and 6th gen failures.
>glorified boss rush
what's wrong with that? Contra cut down real hard on the platforming sections right after super c.
>shitty muddy textures
eh it fits the gritty industrial theme it was going for. I'm not a fan of the artstyle either but it isn't intolerable.
If you look past surface level stuff you'll find that it has impressive use of 3D. It is extremely dynamic, the bosses have several phases where they alternate moving between the foreground and background, changing the entire arena, brilliant area to area transition etc, it makes excellent use of the 3D space. compare that to operation galuga and you'll find that the new game has nothing of that sort. operation galuga might as been a 2D game because of how straightforward it is. It has bad artstyle due to it being 3D and also no purpose for being 3D in the first place.
If you're talking Hard Corps, yeah. It too was nothing but bosses. 3 still owned its platforming roots. Yes, Contra is a platforming, albeit one with jump 'n shoot mechanics. Galuga is a re-imagining of the first game, so of course it's a platformer. Have you also happened to notice its first and third stages resemble the ones from NES? Or even that its final few stages are basically reworks of what you get in 1 and 3? It's the closest we've gotten to a faithful followup we've had in well over a decade. Why the hell shouldn't it demand platforming from the player?
Give me more of this, and less Shattered Soldier and Neo Contra.
Only fix the bugs from the start this time WayForward.
>Why the hell shouldn't it demand platforming from the player?
I personally think that super C is the best contra game so I really like run n gun sections. this is not a flaw with the new game, it is just that it is very uninnovative. you can argue it is an homage so it is supposed to be just like the NES games but it needed more work to stand out on its own especially in the level design, boss design and music.
there is also a problem with the new game that it offers too many options with which you can cheese it like the air dash, hell the flying characters can even skip sidescrolling sections completely by hovering above the visible screen area. the vehicle sections were pretty lukewarm as well. It's not a bad game but it's just an okay game, worth a playthrough or two.
The flying perk is worthless. At this point, you shouldn't even be using perks at all. Extreme doesn't even let you. And the gameplay dynamic opens up a lot when you do more than just stick to Browny, launching missiles and c shots back to back every level.
When you improve in this game enough on your own, combat dynamics open up a lot more. You find yourself making use of everything in your arsenel.
Take perks off and it's a different game. Man you gotta give this one a second chance. I did, and I honestly don't regret sinking $40 into it because I got a lot of replay value for it. It's flawed but good.
Well, you have your opinion of it. I have mine. It all depends on what you personally get out of something. I found value in a game I was expecting to be a disaster.
>Extreme mode
I wanted to play in that from the get go but it was locked and I had to finish it in hard mode first to unlock it but by that time I just lost interest in doing another playthrough. maybe I'll try it in extreme. thanks.
Much better than Contra 3 that's for damn sure. Shattered Soldier and HCU are the only newer games that belong with the classics.
We get it, you don't like Contra.
It's a Wayforward game.
Incredibly action packed. Puts all other modern 2D games to shame. Except possibly Cuphead.
Cuphead is amazing, but I find Galuga just as addicting. The artstyle overall seems a bit uglier, but boss designs of the turret boss, alien boss, the piledriver, and even the fricking drone in stage 4 are great.

A photo for ants
It's a decent generic run n gun, but the 3d way forward aesthetic is ugly and doesn't fit the series well, boss designs aren't anything special, all the modern bells and whistles tacked on muddle the gameplay balance.
tldr s'ok/10, don't pay $40 for it.
It is honestly going to be the last non mobile shit contra we get. you better play it just for that.
Here is my review: not drm free on gog. It's shit. This ass game can burn in hell. Couldn't care less about it
Who gives a flying frick about some one-off character you'll probably never use? You have the Contra set and the hard corps set. What more does anyone need? Story mode was ass. Arcade and extreme is where it's at.
this 100%. nostalgia baiting has become a new indie genre now.
>Shattered Soldier much better than Contra 3
no way. SS isn't any slouch but it doesn't hold a candle to alien wars.
Contra 3 sucks. Obnoxious level design, unbalanced difficulty settings (normal is a cakewalk, hard is a frustrating mess), bosses and even popcorn enemies are massive bullet sponges, nauseating top-down stages, excessive gimmicks, and somehow the weapon swap bug was never caught in testing. One of the few 2D Contras that missed the mark.
I'm one of the few people on this board that has actually cleared the games.
Clearing the games is not a feat when you can just beat them using konami code, setting it on easy/normal and using foreign copies. There's nothing impressive with what you said.
Come back when you've actually 1CC'd any of them, and I mean any. No konami code or fricking with the life values.
Cleared implies one credit you stupid fricking poser no clears moron.
Clear implies nothing. You're some weenie who comes in to brag about beating Contra. Great accomplishment. You're not speaking from any authority.
Post clears shitter
Contra is one of my absolute easiest clears, but I doubt there is even a single other poster in here that has no-miss cleared any of the games.
Blazing Chrome is miles better than this trash, and is arguably even better than Hard Corps. Uprising is also far superior to Galuga, and again not made by Konami.
>Uprising is also far superior to Galuga, and again not made by Konami
contra 4 and rebirth weren't made by konami as well. they were alright.
At this point WayForward does a better job with Contra than Konami did. 4 was an absolute baller of a Contra game compared to most others.
>Blazing Chrome is miles better than this trash, and is arguably even better than Hard Corps.
It loses on basis of having only two characters, one of which is locked being having to finish the game. And I am not even talking about it having less stages than a single play through of HC, without counting branches.
Still a better game than Galuga.
I never really cared all that much about different characters. I only ever played as Ray in Hard Corps. Brownie and Fang are awkward to use, and Sheena is just a worse Ray.
>Sheena is worse Ray
>when she has objectively better guns than Ray
Sure.
Literally every weapon of hers is a downgrade from Ray. I've actually beat the game without getting hit once so I know what I'm talking about.
>Contra 3 sucks
hey aren't you the guy that made that other thread.
>too casual to understand that weapon swap is just canceling and not a legitimate bug. The animation just resets on projectiles. It's not some bug you doofus.
>spam weapon swap to quadruple your damage with no downside whatsoever
>uhhh durr uhhh we actually intended that!!! It allows such gameplay depth such as uh... making you mash a second button to massively increase your damage!!
You are one stupid frick. They fixed it with Hard Corps, Shattered Soldier, and Uprising. But this lazy mobile-tier slop reintroduces decades old exploits
You mean that they allowed for weapons to have animations that reset when another action is being performed? Yes They did. They didn't remove it because it's a legit tactic. You're mixing and match effects like missiles and black holes to abdorb projectiles.
The whole game revolves around using these combos to your adventure. Enjoy your werewolf who can nothing but slide and maybe slash. But it's a game about kicking ass and taking names with two guns in-hand.
It's not some tactical combination of weapons that synergize you moron, there is no timing or strategy to it at all, you just literally mash the weapon swap button and you will do massively more damage as you're basically firing two weapons simultaneously.
And Galuga expand it that. You can now combine different attacks lik3 reflection and black hole together, creating different effects simultaneously.
It's not always the most optimal, but you choose to collect what would be a good combo, and discard the other with an overload. Makes this technique more tactical than it originally was.
It's not a glitch. Pretty sure everyone on that team knows what weapon swap is. Unlike this anon above me.
The strategy for nearly every section is double C as spamming weapon swap makes the damage oneshot everything, and the game is full of bullet sponges otherwise. You would think something so obvious would be caught in testing but it definitely doesn't seem intentional and I think it would be considered an exploit. In any case, the weapon balance is a disaster, and the enemies have way too much HP on hard just using the weapons standard.
No one cares about Galuga. If you're going to do weapon cancels and combinations it should be more than just mashing swap over and over mindlessly for more damage.
Oh yeah, something moronic like wave dashing. Sure anon. It's a simple and fast run 'n gun game. It's not going to have akuma's raging death button combos to make shit happen.
Browny's missiles and c shots beat the shit out of everything else.
contra 3 is incredible and set a standard for action platforming that probably still hasnt been topped.
Then post your no death hard clear if you love the game so much you fricking dumb shitter
>the game's difficulty levels are bonkers, it's frustrating and therefore it is bad!
you won't know a good game even if it sits on your face.
So that's a no then. You haven't actually cleared this game you claim to love so much. Typical poser gay
675061387
Oh yeah, the locking of difficulties behind a credit system was a moron move. It cost way too much. Also, having to buy a konami code, kek.
But yeah man, try it on extreme with just Lance and Bill. It's fun. One credit, no perks, shitton more enemies, two lives, but with health.
Extreme ultra is no health, 2 lives, and one credit. Dude if you want to speedrun credit earning, just get the konami code perk. You'll wrack up something like.... 15,000 easily after a single normal playthrough.
Didn't they not even fix the weapon swap bug from Contra 3? Also the game is ugly as frick, sounds like shit, looks like a mobile game, uninspired designs, refunded this trash.
Only shitters and consoomers are playing this garbage. Clear the Arcade Contras, the NES Contras, Operation C, Contra 3, Hard Corps, Shattered Soldier, Uprising, Contra 4, Contra Rebirth. You'd have to be either really desperate or really stupid to touch this slop.
>the game is ugly as frick, sounds like shit, looks like a mobile game, uninspired designs
what did you expect? It's not from konami and back when konami was making contras they used to push the consoles to their limits. I don't think anyone had such high expectations while getting this game. I got it because I like playing contra likes. blazing chrome, super cyborg were some other okay contra clones.
it's a god send compared to pic related. I'm pretty sure that no one here has played rogue corps so they shit on operation galuga judging it based on the year 2000 contra gold standard.
I played it. Operation Galuga shits all over this one.
the roster on the pic looks way better at least
>le so randum panda
Wowzerz. So le randum hehene xD
well yeah, cool panda > mary sue poc and mary sue secretary
Yeah, i guess it beats the hell out of some dumbass werewolf and a homosexual robot.
I see these but can't take anymore heart break. Can I still up,up,down,down,a,b,a,b,start?
you have to unlock the perk to use it. try out the free demo first if you're unsure.
I wasn't ever going to buy it, but you're good lads for giving me attention. Have a great day.
Have a good one anon. Goodnight man.
Yes. On Switch I believe it's ba. No start. Do it when big c appears on screen. No start. You'll hear the jingle and go into the perk shop. Konami code is 7,000 kosher kredits
>god awful orchestral remixes of songs from 1 and 2 (and maybe 3, not sure)
>looks like cheap mobile game, but that's a given for Wayforward 3D
>character abilities are mostly pointless outside of double jump
>weapon burst button is a joke, yeah, I am totally gonna fill the screen with bullets and lose my spread that does the exact same thing, the only times I've used it is when I got a weapon that I had no slots for and just used it cuz why not
>no Ray, despite the rest of Hard Corps being in, I know he was just basically Bill with Contra 1 weapons but still
>story is a terrible remake of Contra 1 with attempts to connect everything they possibly could, noone asked for it
>majority of bosses and stages are rehashed and the only "original" stage is still a rehash of Energy Zone and Hangar Zone combined into one stage
I've tried to 1CC it 3 times and every time I got bored at stage 2, who thought that boring, way too long autoscroller is a good idea for stage 2. Which is strange, because second "autoscroller" is much better, even if it just a giant Hard Corps jerk off moment.
genuinely curious, would you prefer if the game was just a giant boss rush?
No, because one of my main criticisms of Blazing Chrome is that final stage is just 3 (or even just 2, don't remember) bosses in a row.
Meanwhile, I love Contra Hard Corps and that game is just a boss rush. But that game also has insane spectacle for a Genesis game, amazing OST, branching path and 4 playable characters.
Blazing Chrome to me feels similar with the focus on bosses, but still manages to have some platforming and vehicle sections thrown in for variety, and it all feels pretty well done and not just filler. Additionally, the bosses are also more dynamic and the harder difficulties actually change how you play the game.
Hard Corps, it's a great game, but it's just very static/heavy memo, there is almost non-existent platforming, and the jungle boss is so long, boring, and drawn out.
Brother Mark tore this game to shreds. You shitters could learn a thing or two from his review. He reviews games from a much more hardcore and enthusiast approach that you just don't get from journos. This is the expert opinion of an arcade enthusiast with dozens of difficult 1CCs under his belt.
>mark dick riding
go back to your /vr/ cesspit, knave and stop shilling your channel here.
Mark is a hack you cultist
Visuals look boring and too "cheerful" even when you are inside some monster's intestine. No point playing different characters because they use the same weapons and change in dash/grapple/whatever means frick all.
Finished it once and uninstalled. Hard Corps on mega drive was million times better because each character had unique weapons so you had a reason to play them all.
play iron meat, anons.
When is it coming out?
