IS THIS AN ACTUAL PC GAME

[TooPoopie]

Or just a half baked port of from the consoles?

[koinzell]

no clue on this one, only 6 days left til release,

did you play gunvolt 1? what do you think about the quality of that one?

[TooPoopie]

I didn't play GV1 but I might pick this one up if it's good.

[Hakuso]

It's INTI Creates, the people who can't fix Gunvolt several years after they got a bunch of complaints about it not working offline, I don't think they know (or at least just don't care) what a PC port it.

Well, this time t might be different. I heard Blaster Maser Zero, was quite the good port and I think that this game shouldn't suffer from the same problems as GV1. If you are skepitcal it would be the best if you waited a few days after launch and read some reviews.

We have to wait and see. That being said Inti only failed with GV1 AT LUNCH when it comes to the PC ports of their games. Even then they asked the players about all the problems, they listened and fix all the problems and even added a bunch of extra modes to the game as an apology. My fav one being the kudos mode where you don't lose your points after a stage AND you get stronger the more you have. For a while the steam version was the best version of the game. After that the switch version came out and became the best version for a few things. BUT the PC port got updated too so now both versions are pretty much the same.

Blaster Master Zero, Curse of The Moon and Mighty Gunvolt Burst are all great ports. I haven't had them crash on me once and never had any frame drops or anything. You can assign controls and even assign buttons on a controller. Like you have the normal control configuration but on top of that if you want you can change the buttons on a controller. For example lets say a PS controller, I can change the X button to be the Square button.

They still have the online start up issue which they seem to disregard completely.

That's why I've sworn of all Inti Creates titles on every platform, that includes not buying any more nintendo copies of their games, until they fix GunVolt on Steam so it works offline.

They've known it is broken for years and willfully ignored the issue, that doesn't inspire confidence in them for me, and it sure doesn't make me want to throw money at them like I did on the 3DS.

The sad thing is they got their hands on the prequel to Bloodstained, which I really wanted, but I maintain my boycott (despite getting the more expensive sequel from GOG since it's not published by these apathetic slackers) even outside of the Gunvolt games.

Blaster Master Zero was a GREAT port. And this one's made for PC on release date, so I trust that it won't be a half-assed attempt.

That was such a great game, really wanted to grab it on PC when saw it show up here after I switched from 3DS, but since Gunvolt STILL doesn't work here I'm not trusting the company any further than I do Ubisoft or RockStar.

Nah, hear me out on this one. I was just as skeptical as you are right now, but the quality in BMZ blew me away. Everything works 100%. Keyboard settings, all modes, full screen... Has some small black bars on the sides, but I play windowed anyways so whatevs.

First port they made of the gunvolt series was half baked.
But they patched it so much on the PC to the point it became the definitve version of the game better than the switch version.

I imagine if the game usses the same engine it will be a good port this time.

['You're Cool!' & 100 Other Jokes]

debatable, I bought ASG on PC after the patches and it was still pretty bad, definitely inferior to the OG 3DS ver and the Switch Striker Pack version

If it doesn't even play offline it is not, in any way, a superior version of anything save failure.

I remind you it has some Online features attached, it makes a lick of sense for it to necesitate Internet to an extent.
It was never in that post stated it still needed Internet to boot, I'd check myself but uninstalled it a few days ago to save space.

Also it was patched to support 60 FPS, something the Original could only dream of achieving, so it IS the definitive version of the game.

[Hakuso]

If you actually didn't know, go look at the bug threads for that game, the "fix" is to launch it online and then play it offline because it won't close if you lose the internet but won't start without it.

I expect online features to fail offline, in any game, and maybe some modes won't work.

What I don't accept is that something you can emulate on an office laptop requires a constant internet connection to play a prettified version of a 3DS game.
