Thread 11834970

Oh shit, look what just dropped:

https://nebulous.group/index.php/projects/translations/hybrid-front/#cmtoc_anchor_id_4

I've listened to this soundtrack hundreds of times. Probably my favorite OST ever. Now I will finally check out the game itself. Feels kinda surreal.

>>11834991
The soundtrack is seriously sick, thank you Team Megamix

What's it like? It looks like Advance Wars

Dude, this looks so Advance Wars that I'm already half-convinced Advance Wars ripped it off

>>11835067
Famicom Wars predates this I'm pretty sure

>>11834970 (OP)
I'm surprised Sega themselves never bothered to translate this. The music, artwork, and graphics are great, and the setting and story, from what I could tell, always looked really cool. I'm definitely going to try this

>>11835075
Speaking of Famicom Wars. Kek! Wtf is up with the box art? I'm surprised it isn't talked about more

>>11835131
What's wrong with it? They had money to spend on a promotional campaign.

>>11835147
It just looks kinda goofy. Box art that used real people tended to

>>11835131
The TV commercial is even better:

>>11835150
At least army men are relevant to a game about army men. https://youtu.be/wpjac0Adduk?si=c4-EhhuhnOT5lM7Y

Every. Single. Track. in this game game is a joy to listen to. What a soundtrack.

>>11835161
How does “Famicom wars ga deru zo” translate to “military combat”? Is this bizarre schizo headcanon what western insect trannies like to pass as “fan translation” these days?

>>11835230
It's a shit fansub from 10 years ago, wouldn't lose sleep over it.

I've booted the Japanese version out of curiosity and this game probably has the most cinematic opening on Mega Drive, even if it is just a slideshow with text.

>>11835161
Honestly a pretty good commercial.

This thread sank and died on /m/.

I'm gonna give this game a whirl (raw, mind) because I'm in a strategy game mood.

>>11835050

I have this track in a playlist for years. I must check the game out.

>>11835067
jesus christ what a horrific comment

How do I use the supplies in the truck and mothership? I notice they both have "supplies" listed as one of their weapons but there seems to be no actual way to resupply units with these...

>>11834970 (OP)
what a time to be alive

based autists are doing more for vidya than modern slop devs

everything about this game seems fabulous, just read the manual and loved the lore, I'll try it now

BASED I was waiting for this one

>>11834970 (OP)
Translated the manual too, very nice.

Hey I just saw this game a few months ago from some anon's post, gonna have to play. Was just posting in the lil SRPG thread thats up and have been wanting something new to play. Thank you OP and translator-kun

>>11834970 (OP)
Do I need to remove the header first?

>>11836845
Here: https://gofile.io/d/zVlkFW

>>11836848
No need for that. Patching is really easy now and so is removing the header, just asked since the site gave zero rom requirements.

Thanks though.

Just made a quick webm. The fusion filter doesn't come out well though which sucks because it has this blurry look from how the sprites are colored so I recomend some light scanlines.

>>11834970 (OP)
>cool premise
>kickass art
>amazing ost
>it's a srpg
Every fucking time. God damnit

>>11836952
No, this appears to be a turn based strategy game, not an srpg

>>11836952
The game also comes with something Front Mission does where you get lore dumped with an optional lore dump in the menu. Just in case you want more politics.

>>11836952
lol deal with it

>>11836867
>>11836921
pretty bad shader

>>11837962
It looks like this on Kega without it when put to a higher resolution.

>>11838183
Oh whoops silly me. I haven't used Kega in so long I completely forgot about the two built-in shaders. Okay, it is nice and crisp now.

>>11834991
Dude, nice. I have the soundtrack on CD and it's incredible.

>>11836952
that's what going through the PC Engine library feels like. Strategy and Mahjong.
>>11836845
I'm lazy so I just go to CD Romance for pre-patched ROMs

>>11835150
I read an interview with a guy from Kemco in an EGM and he said that he simply thought showing this old guy with a banjo on the box would help the game stand out on the shelf against the dozens of other space shooters out there. I kinda wish there was a more interesting story behind this. The old guy also played Santa Claus on this album cover.

>>11836952
Every time.

>>11838637
I ignored the game because I thought it was a fishing game. Yes I didn't even bother to read the text, how could you tell?

why is the OST randomly incredible

>>11842793
You'd complain if it was shit.

>>11842831
I mean yeah I suppose that applies to every OST ever made

>>11836964
That's even worse

>>11835170
That actually is pretty good

>>11835170
It's a good soundtrack but man you fuckers really do overhype things.

>>11835170
Holy. FUCKING. Shit.

>>11835131
Nintendo saw Full Metal Jacket and made a cover for it

>>11836952
>>cool premise
>>kickass art
>>amazing ost
>>it's a *shumup
FTFY
you have no idea how common this
It's early JRPGs but worse.

>>11836952
Imagine being this assmad about a game nailing its presentation.

No gameplay? All I find is old videos

>>11845349
Not like anything changes just because it is in english.

>>11846356
in other words nothing to discuss about

>>11836952
Yup that’s why interest dropped significantly in this dead thread.

>>11846356
Didn’t want the cat so never came back.

>>11845349
nobody cares

>>11835540
and now it will here too

>>11836867
Orbital cameo?

>>11835051
>>11835067
From the manual it looks more like Super Robot Wars in terms of gameplay. Suits me just fine.

Pic related.

>game
Interacting with menus to watch RNG animations is not video games.
>>>/tv/

>>11848976
Naw, it's closer to AW and Nectaris. The only SRW similarity I noticed besides genre staples are units having multiple ammo based weapons.

>>11849741
Which one

>>11835131
Captain Jack??

>>11849934
Stay off youtube.

>>11851227
Take me back to the railroad track.

>>11835131
>>11843570
Nintendo should’ve released earlier Wars series in North America while Fire Emblem were local in EU and Australia

>>11852278
oh yeah?

yeah okay i'll try it out

>>11851924
Give me a bottle in my hand

>>11839970
matoko?

See i TOLD you guys this thread wouldn’t take off in discussion
Deader than the xfl

>>11859510
Either people are still playing it to completion or it was boring all along, save only for good music

>>11834970 (OP)
Cannot thank you enough for this OP, had no idea about this game and it's right up my alley in every way possible.
>>11836848
Thanks for this as well.

>>11860293
thx

>>11860293
Did you win?

>>11860293
Did you lose?

>>11848976
it didn’t work.

>>11838637
with a banjo

>>11836952
That’s why interest died fast.

>>11834970 (OP)
god that's some tasty cover art

What's this? An Advance Wars-ish looking game? And on Genny? Oooh, I should definitely save this for later, I'm looking forward to the twangy YM2612 tunes!

>>11836848
Thank you for saving me the trouble, good man.

>>11867885
Did you win?

>>11836952
that’s why it got autosaged

>>11859510
Dumb discordfags.

>>11868936
for real, I really wanted to discuss this game but I didn’t have the time make for it and now it’s auto saged
