based on the interview, saji is prolly gonna pilot a gundam?

and wow something just tells me allelujah dies in s2... the fact that they can dispose lockon that easily is also an assuring factor. probably ending up in some REALLY tearjerking moment (ep24 christina and that guy [his name is just too complicated for my taste]) with marie aka soma peiris (however you spell it)

after seeing the combo of h/allelujah, i wouldnt want to see that go down

but who knows. dynames may not even exist anymore in favor of a new gundam, after salvaging the solar furnace. (we know of his *in*capabilities when it comes down to close quarters and especially vs other "gundams" which comes down to close quarter battles. but hell, lockon performed awesomely despite his disadvantages before he die)

afaik the weapons they are firing are just standard beam weapons?

more towards the gn-x though, all they do is float around pew pew pew

=edit=
oh and not sure if you bothered to ponder, but if all you guys are talkin is uc related stuff, which obviously isnt the majority liking thats shown in this thread, what do you think people would react? only 3 possible outcome:
1) just ignore and 2 sided discussions (when series is runnin)
2) clash and flame on
3) desert thread (post series)

another thing to note is that season2 starts in 6 months, you can discuss its aftermath, speculate the upcoming stuffs all you want, but 6 months is seriously a long time ahead. and all you can do is guessworks and speculations.

to be honest i think iraq is WAAAY worse. few "glorified" deaths in double oh is no where near the death tolls on iraq war be it the civs or the millitary personel from both sides.

Added on April 22, 2008, 10:05 amactually im quite a gundam 00 tard/fanboi myself. only difference is that i dont go zealous about how winrar gundam 00 is as opposed to some others that would, be it 00 or UC or w/e.

in regards of the railgun theory for double oh, no matter how you see it, railguns rail (you would know since you still remember arnie's eraser ) so the projected output should have some sort of a spiral animation, and the projectile should be VERY penetrateble on most types of armor, granted it has an actual bullet head.

weapons in double oh on the other hand are all beam based, they have no spiral animation, and they "splatter" upon contact instead of "piercing" as opposed a railgun nature projectile would.

the best examples i can find in regards to beam weapons are from the mechwarrior series. if you've played the games or watched the animations/cartoons, you'll notice that all the beam weapons are instant hits. excluding mechwarrior 4 from microsoft that bastardized pulse lasers by creating travel times (but then again old pulse lasers are worthless shits)

mech 2-3 pulses are "hold-down" instant contact pea shooters. you can just equip ur entire mech with pulses and draw f words on enemy mechs, or on their cockpit, for the cool glass breaking sound effects and annoying your opponent to hell.

mech 4 = tri-shot "pulses" that has a travel time unlike normal lasers. or the previous pulses.

ER = extended range btw

lol more OT:

PPC is too energy ineffecient
and gauss rifle is too heavy, and if you play single player that involves money (eg: mercenaries), too expensive.

best weapons for mech 2-3:

the monkey missle lamer-
pack your entire mech with LRMs. take out 3-5 targets with an insane missle barrage that even with full AMS couldnt even stop unless they have fast jump jets and strafe back buying time for AMS to take out incoming missles. Once payload depletes, self destruct and respawn.

only work in multiplayer setting, and its an extremely noob way to play mechwarrior and expect RL pvp to happen.

Autocannon abuser-
in pre mech 4, taking autocannon shots to the leg causes your mech to fall. the rest is up to your imagination. down side? auto cannon is hard to aim at long range, require to get into CQB or mid range for it to work, not to mention its only effective on cockpit shots or leg shots (unless you wanna torture ur enemy by disabling their hands, and all, but then again you can equip weapons on legs/torso and virtually anywhere pre-mech4)

Flamethrower flamer-
Your dmg suck, your a clown. But why is this still an awesome weapon? Upon 2nd or 3rd shot of a full flame barrage, your opponent is stuck in PERMANENT overheat situation. What comes next? he will just sit still and let you buttsecks. Only way out? coolant flush and try to score a 1 shot cockpit shot. If that fail, forget it, self destruct to save yourself time.

ER Laser mass-
BOOM HEADCOCKPITSHOT

Added on April 22, 2008, 4:41 pmyea AFAIK beams can be used underwater too depending on what type of beams.

because logically, light can travel underwater, and general beam is light based

This post has been edited by Quazacolt: Apr 22 2008, 04:41 PM

just like how sun light filtering through the ocean causing it to be bright and pretty, and warm n fuzzy, same theory could be applied to laser underwater. You just need to have a higher output, and/or focusing lenses or similiar tech/mechanic to enhance the focus/density of the beam.

for lrm, you tried alpha strike all ur lrm packs then flush and alpha again? AMS + JJ strafe also can die cuz its like... ok, remember the hero ending scene, the one where jet li is standing there, and a whole buttload of arrows shreak through the sky, that one, cept its missles, and its homing locked. (if you install computerized targeting, you can even specify which part to target too its not even funny lmao)

cooldown isnt long, like 2-3 sec? AMS cant keep up lol.

and no, shutting down ur mech cant avoid once your locked on. only thing to do is AMS JJ strafe. thats why LRM massers are lame as hell in multiplayers

got, if im not mistaken, in merc you can eject from mech and run around with a shitty machine gun, and you die in 1 hit from almost anything... lol.

from ur mech view, the infantry looks like pixelated funny looking cardboard-like guys (almost 2d ish lulz, or its 2d XD)

yea got, forgot which particular series. but its pointless to run around as infantry, your good as fission mailed. cuz afaik you cant hijack mechs.

also in the novel/cartoon/animation, the small suits are just as you said. cuz you can jack mechs (aside from goin up the cockpit and firing missles through it lulz.

Added on April 23, 2008, 1:31 pmnah, not the M$ mechwarrior. its the old schools from activision

This post has been edited by Quazacolt: Apr 23 2008, 01:31 PM

basically what wolfx said.

and you couldnt've forgotten that within CB itself is sorta "2 factioned"? previously thrones and the original meisters, then corner and the original meisters, then the innovators. based from some interview some time ago for double 00, they also mentioned everything that's happening in the world (from the solar war to the gundam 00 show we are watching for example) CB has something to do with it. so it still isnt too far fetched that aeolia could be a bad guy after all

and no, the world isnt entirely united and not every country joined the EF. 382? if im not mistaken countries is hardly the entire world. theres probably a few others, and the story can show those countries rebeling and what not. or maybe EF oppressing them, who knows?

you somewhat contradict yourself there, you said so long men live they will be always war, i think there is your answer. just that alone we know the world wont be united and theres always something to tell for season2. and that we can expect some cheesy "i am gundam/intervening yo wars" quote from setsuna, at age 20... lol.

and btw, its 4 years. 2 years is the time saji lost contact with louise.

www.gundam00.net

i cant understand moonletters, so anyone here that does maybe assist translate a bit? im referring to the new gundam 00f/v/p links, possible OVA releases before season2?

to be honest, i think only you and starghazzer are like, the only active uc posters around, let alone tomino elitists.

tomino elitists lolwut?!

Added on May 6, 2008, 11:13 pmso no moon readers around?

This post has been edited by Quazacolt: May 6 2008, 11:13 PM

1) i cant simply mind read posters, so if theres no post from tomino elitists, i simply cant assume they are there lurking around. besides, redeye mentioned about them getting him (assumably a flame war of sorts), and there was none at all. so at the end of the day, no, we cant simply mind read tomino elitists so they can reign terror even without posting.

2) ive never said anything about being loyal to the old UC gundams. merely pointing out theres no tomino elitists around, or active for the time being anyways.

3) if you've noticed my postings made on AS, ive never being biased on ANY anime thus far. you can even look up my name and postings, and point it out to me if there is and ill stand corrected.

4) while it may seem that i am biased towards the UC series, i dare say im not. however, i wont look into it just because its a gundam series. at the end of the day im not a diehard gundam fanboy thus i wont waste the effort of digging through the countless BAD DUBS just to find some piss poor animated old gundam UC series animation. to re-cap: there was no preference, it was simply too much effort to find original japanese dub with english subs of ancient-artifact gundam animes.

5) if it even makes you feel better, i started from gundam wing, watched seed, and now the new gundam 00. there, its more than 1 gundam series. so am i GUNDAM?!?!?

if they were handed to me on a silver platter, jap dub + english sub, i might!

i have an insane ammount of hdd space afterall, and i am watching around 20+ anime series right now.

but yea, as evident from the past posts, i dont think the power level of my care-o-meter is reading high. lolwut?!

the speed you guys put up spiked barricades and start to unload a volley of lead never cease to amaze me. if you dont get it, im referring on how defensive you guys can get.
since im clearly mistaken by a long shot, ill clarify:

1) considering i did mentioned that redeye mentioning tomino elitist are getting him, its pretty safe to interpret it as THEY starting a flame way with him, not him (redeye) start a flame war.

2) i dont watch dubs

3) i dont watch dubs

4) did i say i dont watch dubs yet? yeah i dont watch dubs. and since im clarifying, i was referring how the majority of old animes are dubbed, and searching through them nets you dubbed animes more than original jap voice with english sub. HECK, the majority of UC w/e youtubes vid being posted in this thread (yes i do watch them time to time) ARE english dub. and the moment i see shitty english voice start shittin out, its immediately stop before ears + brains explode.

5) lets be damn serious here, remastered version or not, they sure aint no HD anime, and to compare recent animations with the past is seriously
until i see gundam 00/shakugan no shana s2/nabari no ou (and the long list goes on, just putting up some examples) level of animations done to the old gundams, im not convinced. theres only so much you can do on remastered version. and the main remastering is always the sound effects, hardly the animation itself as reproductions of an entire anime is not as easy as you think, and if they do that anyways, they might as well air it on tv in which i would probably catch it and watch it already.

6) i dont think recent new mechas being overrated or not are the issue. its the fact how you guys hug the old gundam's balls so tight and immediate shun any opinions that defiles those said old mechas almost immediately without hesitation. words back at you, overrated much? (fact: zaku is prolly the most overrated gunpla ive seen. countless of different versions of zaku released, yet. its the same damn mono eye, with the same damn design minus modifications here/there and different random weapons )

7) dont think its been mentioned that preferring UC == tomino loyalist. no need to get defensive on that as well.

8) again, opinions are being shove down our throats. why not i just randomly say omg bible black is like, must see as its the epitome of hentai and you must watch it, surely everyone got like 20minutes to spare for the first episode or some random compiled youtube recaps am i right? its like watching hentai but never knowing its lolwut roots or w/e. (making this shit up, but you *SHOULD* get the idea)

despite my over-emphasis of:


im still amazed and dazed at how you can even say that. oh well ill just pretend i didnt even saw that sentence.

Added on May 7, 2008, 8:08 pmif you cant pick up from my posts, im pretty much lazy to dig through old stuffs just because its epic lol. and the way these guys are going its totally unconvincing at all lmao.

if you still got the torrent links of jap dub eng sub of the series you posted, mind pm'ing me then? else i really couldnt be bothered lurking around for it. unless im seriously damn free, which im not, still building my kyrios gunpla XD

appreciate your good intentions though

Added on May 7, 2008, 8:18 pm

and i also did explain remastering isnt gonna do miracles right?

polishing/repainting/retuning/overhauling (lol remastering it yoz!) a proton, it will still end up being a proton. get it?

and no, i dont entirely shun old animes for the sole reason of them being old. ive even watch patlabor anime in english/malay/cantonese dubs (lol malay dubs) when i was a little kodomo. but does that mean i still have to cling on to it forever? no right? animes get better, life moves on. just as simple as that for me.

first you said:

then you say:


your not really being convincing btw. im not sold at least
while my usage of comparison can be rather flawed, but you claiming one thing being overatted, and when pointed out another obviously overrated example you just brush it off like that? dont know bout you but its easily viewed as a biased opinion, dont you think?

for the oversensitive and defensive part, i dont know bout you, but im really easy going around AS as its just animu and its solely for entertainment. you dont see me go around AS threads shoving opinions down people's throat. perhaps i am really oversensitive and defensive, but at the very least i dont go around barricading gundam 00 or any AU gundams in this gundam thread. True this is a gundam thread, but when everything is being biased and one sided, you might as well rename the thread of that majority biased side. no offense but its what been going on for a long while for 2 version of this so called "gundam thread".

hell, if you havent noticed how this new mess started, im merely joking about theres no "tomino elitists" around here and people just start taking up arms and flame on.
and oh, trying for the 2nd time to ask any decent moon-readers to confirm if theres any possible productions of the 00 side stories. what i get? UC IS SUPERIAH

i know right? been trying to find people that could do decent jap text translation to have a lookout if there are any hints or indications of 00 side story productions. the news site is just announcement of the alt storylines websites being put up.
