WOW

Do I see correct that there are now space arenas?

Also, we get to choose between 3 Burst modes? It's not apparent what the new "Extend Burst" does. Can someone explain?

[AmuroNT1]

I don't think they're going to add all-space stages back into the game, given how slow and clunky they were in past games.

Also, for the three Bursts...

Fighting Burst:
-Melee tracking significantly increased
-Down Value of your attacks is decreased
-Can Guard Break with melee attacks
-Cancel Routes: Shooting attacks can be cancelled into melee attacks
-Boost recovery upon activation: High
-Melee damage increase: High
-Shooting damage increase: Low
-Damage reduction: Low
-Mobility: High

Shooting Burst:
-Can Step-Cancel some ranged weapons
-Lock-On range significantly increased
-Reload speed significantly increased
-Cancel Routes: Shooting attacks can be cancelled into shooting attacks
-Boost recovery upon activation: Medium
-Melee damage increase: Low
-Shooting damage increase: High
-Damage reduction: Low
-Mobility: Low

Extend Burst:
-EX Gauge remains if shot down while in Burst
-Can Burst out of enemy attacks at 50% meter
-Can perform a Diagonal Step
-Cancel Routes: None
-Boost recovery upon activation: Low
-Melee damage increase: None
-Shooting damage increase: None
-Damage reduction: High
-Mobility: Medium

So take this as you will but this was posted on a Pastebin page.

This is a final tier list for the basic arcade version of Maxi Boost.
(Maxi Boost ON is another situation altogether lol)

[AmuroNT1]

Posted this a while ago on the Junk Guild, but here's the Mack Knife's movelist:

a: Beam Vulcans
CSa: Beam Vulcans (Focused)

b: Plasma Claws
2b: Anchor (Launch)
CSb: Photon Bombs

ab: Plasma Claws (Gerobi)
-TFab: Plasma Claws (Beam Shot)

ac: Grenade Launcher
-n/2ac: Normal shot
-8ac: Fires the grenades backwards for a quick forwards rush
-4/6ac: Fires the grenades while boosting left/right

bc: Barara's Mack Knife Assist
-n/2bc: Fires its beam vulcans
-8bc: Launches grenades
-4/6bc: Fires a gerobi from its plasma claws

abc: Plasma Claw Combo (beatdown combo with claws and kicks)
2abc: Full Fire (spins and fires all weapons while supported by Barara's Mack Knife)

[AmuroNT1]

As I mentioned on Twitter, it seems that Maxi Boost ON is finally doing something about air stalling, AKA "Endless Defense", where you use various attacks to keep yourself suspended in mid-air and makes it nearly impossible to hit you. If you spend 20-25 seconds continuously in the air, you will eventually be hit with stun and forced back down.

Or, to paraphrase the Hitchhiker's Guide series, "The law of gravity will glance sharply in your direction and demand to know what the hell you think you're doing up there".

Anyone keeping track of the recent videos for EXVS MBON?

Barbatos seems to be fairly popular and is a bit more than an Exia clone given its extended melee combos and medium range.

G-Reco is absolutely a monster in the right hands.

The speed enhancements for all mobile suits seems to have been particularly useful for Heavyarms EW players

I'm looking for a video of Akatsuki in action if anyone can point me to a link please

[AmuroNT1]

Akatsuki hasn't been formally added to the game yet, they just revealed it with the poster image on the main website.

[domino]

Thanks. I hadn't realized. Is there a release schedule for when Akatsuki and other new MS are coming?

EDIT: Seems AGE-FX is next

[AmuroNT1]

Also, Dylan might be amused...I popped into Team Four Star's Tuesday stream and Kirran recognized me because I posted a comment on one of his ExVs videos (the one where you Moonlight Butterfly'd him). He even asked if we were friends, and I said yes. I also invited him to Soul Bro's now-monthly ExVs sessions, and he said he might take me up on it because he misses the game.

[AceWhatever]

Those last two deals are the same ones from last December minus the Banshee Norn for the first one I believe.

Also if you guys are still doing the Full Boost sessions, where do you schedule things? The Gundamn page hasn't updated since last June.

[AmuroNT1]

We've cut things back to once a month because interest dropped off after we found out there wouldn't be a home version of Maxi. The last session was last weekend, but SBR was saying things might change once the English version of Gundam Breaker 3 comes out. If you want more up-to-date info, you're better off following SBR on Twitter.

[domino]

Is it confirmed that Gundam Maxi Boost will NOT be coming to either ps3 or ps4?

[AmuroNT1]

Well, ignoring that image that was posted to Twitter a while ago (whose veracity is suspect), Maxi Boost ON shows that they're going to extend the life of the core game by at least another year while they add in more characters. So I'd be willing to bet we won't see a port of the original Maxi.

Several videos with AGE FX are up on youtube. Looks like a fun and over-powered MS like in the anime lol

[Mu La Flaga]

If this link works right, a friend told me(RDMX on twitter)
Sthesia is getting a unit in MaxiBoost on 2500.

Akatsuki has returned after a LONG absence.

[AmuroNT1]

Preview video for the Akatsuki. Its moveset, as near as I can tell...

-Oowashi

CSa: Beam Cannons
b: Beam Sabers

bc: Full Burst

-Shiranui
a: Beam Rifle
CSa: High-Power Shot

Yata no Kagami seems to be 2b, and its Burst Attack is the beatdown combo seen at the end of the video.
