    Been stuck on 6-Side 2 for like three days. Mostly because I keep making one bad trade up top with the commander and I'm mostly trying to solo up there with them.

    I bought a 256gb SD card for my Switch last week. And I bought this game to christen it with. But then I forgot to play...

    It's still just sitting there. Like an unwrapped present.

    So I’m on what I think is the last mission before I need to farm 100 stars , that’s a cool looking CO .

    I think I'm going to put the game down, 20+ attempts on 7-2 and it just isn't fun anymore.

    Sorry it isn't fun anymore. :(

    I'm not in that group just yet, but I know I would be if I played this a lot more than I did.

    Have there been any dumb, fun created maps/campaigns out there since launch?

    I must be bad then, Im stuck in Act 3 feeling like everything is hard.

    Did an easy run on Arcade mode and enjoyed that tho. Going to try again with a harder difficulty.

    Curious how multiplayer works. Can I just add people on Steam or do I have to sign up for a multiplatform service?

    There is a quick play matchmaker in game for random games. Also I felt the campaign didn’t get hard till act 5 then it got obnoxious.

    The story difficulty mode will also help with star collection for those that want to unlock the secret characters. The current difficulty is now Hard mode, and you can only unlock S-rank in it. However, on Medium you can still get a full 3-stars, and if you're having too much trouble getting above a one on those difficulties easy still allows you to get 2.

    For those that haven't finished yet. You really do want to try and get 3 stars. There is a level that unlocks that you need at least 100 stars.
    The checkpoint is really nice. They balance to some of the commanders is a good help. They really added some great QoL stuff with this patch. I definitely recommend this game to anyone that has a mild interest in turn based strategy.

    I'm about to start 3-1 and can definitely list out some more QoL changes I'd like to see. Will whip something up later.

    Yea this is a great and quick QOL patch. Nuru went from very OP to maybe useless - is double cost too much?

      Considering how much Nuru can threaten the board when she's charged it's probably not useless. It just takes her from S tier to B tier.

      Also means that Nuru might want to try hiding away cash each round so the threat is genuine when the wargroove comes online.

      My personal suggestion for patching her was to make it so anything that cost more than 600 started inactive.

      This definitely sounds like a fairer trade off.

        Sheesh. With Borderlands I didn't touch the game in a while. Gonna have to make some time.

        Studio did a stream today. Might still be going.

        I remember full-stop playing the game after about 5-6 missions because everything was so slow, even with animations turned off. Hopefully they'll address those issues, because I really need a spiritual successor to Advance Wars.

        After the nonsense with chucklefish and their Starbound development, I'm really torn here.

        Tried the new campaign a bit. It... uh, seems a little oddly structured. The first mission is an incredibly easy tutorial. Then it opens up to a bunch of new missions with no real hint of where to go. First one I tried is a goddamn slog that seems to assume you played a ton of the game already. Which is a bit odd for something that you may be theoretically using to introduce someone to the game? Or may be playing for the first time in... forever since this is the first bit of content that's dropped for the game. I've had to restart it over again several times, which kind of highlights the generally problematic elements with the game's mission structure where it asks for a pretty significant time investment for a mission but also has no problem with suddenly cranking the difficulty up ludicrously towards the end. They at least offer the ability to create a save to restart from but... still not great. Might just drop the damn difficulty or trying one of the other missions or something.
