Galenforcer Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Generic "What should be in this game," thread. The one thing that I would like is rescuing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radiant Dragon Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Considering it's not a remake (which I'm hoping is the only reason it wasn't included in FE11 and 12), I'm sure Rescuing and probably Shoving too will be included. I don't want to see Fatigue, because a mechanic that prevents me from using the units I want is a bad mechanic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celice Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 I'm believing Shoving to be a trait that will only be for FE9/10. It's one of those gimmicks which show up for the different worlds the games take place in. It's probably being replaced by this ganging-up feature. I admit though, I really liked shoving for the same reason I liked rescuing--using it to get units just into--out out of--danger fields. I'd still like to see a replay feature, a thing that tracks your commands throughout a map and the lets you watch all your actions in real-time at the end. Just to see the battle a different way from the go-and-pause method we're used to. And I'd like to see weapon levels be a lot harder to raise, or permanently locked by class. I have a habit of quickly getting to the highest rank without really trying... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Etlandis Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 (edited) I'll personally be happy as long as RD support system never makes a return. Generic supports FTL. EDIT: Made that post too hastily, as long as supports aren't generic I don't mind how it actually works I'm thinking the ganging up system could be pretty fun though I'm hoping for rescues to make a return too...I'm really careless when moving and it helps immensely if I could have a failsafe for if I move something wrongly...

I.M. Gei Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Rescuing and Canto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florete Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 RD's support system of being able to support anyone but with real conversations for specific pairs would be awesome. Best of both worlds. Rescuing I definitely want to see, and otherwise I don't mind much what they add or remove. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclipse Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Limited reclassing. I abused it way too much in SD! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenix Wright Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 --Abilities, like FE5 and FE10. So awesome. --Forging --A new type of weapon. Functions like knives and bows (no advantage or weakness). Or maybe with that newly added weapon there can be two triangles like with magic in FE9/10. --Not a mechanic, but I want more dark magic users. Most of the FE series dark magic users suck (at least post-Super Famicom). --One-range bows that can counter-attack and attack. --Support conversations I'll think of more and add it later.

CrashGordon94 Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 I'll support 1-range Bows. Also, not sure if it counts as a mechanic, but displaying the growths of a unit on one of the info pages about them (probably the one after their current stats).

Rothene Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Not sure how split promotions can be incorporated if there is a reclass system...but I'd like to see mageknights and valkyries returning.

Othin Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 I don't want to see Fatigue, because a mechanic that prevents me from using the units I want is a bad mechanic. How about a mechanic that encourages you to use units you might not think to use, hmm? Going through the whole game with the same team is boring. Fatigue is a worthy addition to any FE game, with the exception of games like FE10 because it'd get all screwed up by the multiple teams and isn't as necessary in the first place for that reason.

Nothing is keeping you from using different characters/teams if you want to. You don't need Fatigue to switch teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naglfar Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 FE9-style supports. Rescue. Interesting classes and good units in them. And some new stuff that I wouldn't even have thought of. At the very least, we're pretty much guaranteed rescue and a proper support system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Othin Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Nothing is keeping you from using different characters/teams if you want to. You don't need Fatigue to switch teams. False. You are keeping yourself from using different characters and teams throughout a playthrough. It's not something people will typically do on their own. It's an option, but not one people normally go for without a specific challenge dictating it, one imposed by themselves or by the game. This is a challenge imposed by the game to that end. The expectations of the game further play a role in this. In a game that's designed to be played through with one small team, playing with a larger team gives up levels and stats, something typically avoided. In a game where all characters can be used continuously, it's often most effective, when playing the game normally to go through the game with a team aboutas big as you can bring into any given chapter. There's also the strategy aspect. Not being able to use your best characters all the time means you have to think about when to use them, and adept to new strategies when you can't use them.

Mister Cold Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 -Split promotion -No reclassing -Skills (more FE9 then FE10 in the likes of mastery skills) -Shove was very useful -FE9 support style (and convos) -Another My Unit?

CrashGordon94 Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 and definitely NOT this unless there are Crossbows. Not even because it's Crash saying this. Why not? Are you afraid they'll break the game? ... Unless they're all like 1-3 range like in FE2, I guess. That was cool. Actually, only the Bow you get when unequipped is 1-3 range, the rest were 1-5 range. Yeah, that was a proud day for Bows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, only the Bow you get when unequipped is 1-3 range, the rest were 1-5 range. Yeah, that was a proud day for Bows. No, I'm against it on principle. Bows were, by default, 1-3 range, unless you were an ArchKnight or had one equipped. Very few enemies did. My point stands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you can do that if you want to. Just the same way you can use bottom tier characters to make the game more challenging if you want to. No one, no one is keeping you from switching between units. In fact, I think it's worse if they added Fatigue and they made you play that way. What if I want to beat the game using the same 5 or so characters? You can't do that in FE5, because your characters would get fatigued every three or so chapters. In fact, all Fatigue does is restrict the player's freedom. Without Fatigue, you can do whatever you want: you can have different teams, you can solo the game with the Lord, you can just pick a team of 8 or so characters and beat the game with them... I like having the freedom to play the game however I want, and Fatigue doesn't give me that freedom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riariadne Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 FE2 bows were mega badass. I do think some sort of weaker 1 range weapon for bows should exist, like there's 1-2 range for physical weapons. They've gotten the short end of the stick for a long time now. ;/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
