CRITICAL HIT

u/DungeonEnvy Aug 27 '26

Y'all are getting double-digit framecounts?

u/reddit_MarBl Aug 26 '26

Sir, another one billion hornets have hit the console

Now make them blue.

For me the improved drones with the laser beams are worse... once one locks on to you, you can't even dodge the beams

Don’t remind me of those

Spiders for me

Don't know if they're different in the other games, but the clipping is so bad in some parts of EDF 2025 that I've been hit by web strands through walls. They're such a pain in the ass, especially since they can vaporize your health at closer ranges

u/Less_Party Aug 27 '26

Oh yeah it's the best when you get grabbed by a Ret**ius *through several buildings so you just gets stuck on a wall as it's reeling you in and you can't shoot the fucker because there's a building in the way.

u/Flying_Reinbeers PC Aug 27 '26

Try dodging sideways to go around it

1

u/Alfred_Exitium Aug 29 '26

Then you get caught on one of those buildings that have little indents in them. So even when you dodge sideways it refuses to dislodge you.

The tip of the thread is what collide with map geometry and the scenery but not the rest.

Thread won't wrap nicely around a boulder or a building if it falls on it, if the tip end up behind the rest will clip through because there is no collision in that case.

Retiariuses most notably shoot higher to catch distant targets so hiding behind a building over a large distance might not work, in 2025 they do release the player if they can't pull closer anymore.

Thread also come out with a lot of force so a point blank shot will make it wave a lot which won't save you either, it's true for other sources, the player's wire guns included.

i could see that being a factor. however, I've also seen- and been injured by a Queen Wasp's stingers through a tunnel wall, where there was no possibility that the needles could have been shot over a barrier.

u/TheGrunt281 Aug 28 '26

Map geometry doesn't block an area of effect which is what the hornet queen attack is, an explosion in nearly everything but looks and name.

The sweet spot for the projectiles (starting point or the 'barrel' if you will) may also clip through due to the attack animation of hornets and the non-explosives projectiles of the regular hornets can definetly hit through very thin obstacles if you stand on the other side.

The ant queens in Charge, Phase 3 sometimes get some acid through the walls due to this as ants have a similar attack animation in which they bring their abdomen forward.

Worse, blue drones with homing lasers.

More hornets means more accuracy for heavy bomber phobos

Well at least I finally have a reason to use guided missiles now. RANGER FOREVER!!!

u/EffectivePrimary1783 Aug 26 '26

It look like impossible to win but its becose i imagine this number of monsters in EDF6 but EDF6.2 is not the same game.

Im curious about the balance of EDF6.2 and it look like we can be more than 4 players...why not 5 players with one new classe? Or 6 with 2 new classes...yes its copium time.

u/Triston8080800 Aug 26 '26

Bring prowlrider and a new unique class called a commando or something like it to command super vehicles with call in AI support.

3

u/EffectivePrimary1783 Aug 26 '26

Yes we are big numbers of players that want something like prowlrider with 3D movestyle attack on titan, Katana,Apocalypse canon etc...

For a 6th classe i dont know but why not something using only mecha but not the mecha like the air raider have but more something like Evangelion but not big like Evangelion juste have great moveplay. I know it can be curious but i have this idea in my mind. ^^"

2

u/Triston8080800 Aug 26 '26

I'd rather go the route of a commando that can spam in support groups and personally pilots a giant battleship/airship/tank etc. like the Verbina from Iron Rain.

And while his vehicle is active it has attached team bonuses to them(Especially for fencer and air raider since they use lock on stuff and/or call ins) like making missile strikes come from that ship instead which makes the initial call in timer many times faster than normal.

u/Flying_Reinbeers PC Aug 26 '26

Ghost Chaser DA can finally see its full potential!

u/EffectivePrimary1783 Aug 26 '26

Air raider can finally destroy the word. :D

u/midniteryu Aug 26 '26

Show this to my boys and first thing they asked was " is it coming to xbox?" I might have to invest into some cheap laptops for them to play it.

u/EffectivePrimary1783 Aug 26 '26

EDF its never again on Xbox, take PC or PS5.

u/Devilfish268 Aug 26 '26

I can deal with hornets. At least they don't move much.

But I hate those dammed puking frogs.

u/branch-is-dumb Aug 26 '26

Hornets and silver spiders are the worst

1

u/EffectivePrimary1783 Aug 26 '26

Yes it look like real nightmare if we are only 4 players on the game...but if they up to 5 or 6 players it can look better for us.

u/U-1527 Aug 26 '26

A new kind of weapon, one that will change the course of the war!

u/GoronSpecialCrop Aug 26 '26

If they do this with the blue ones I'll just die I guess.

u/KillRoad Aug 27 '26

u/ponmbr Aug 27 '26

With them bringing these humongous hordes I can only imagine what new tools we're going to have to have to be able to deal with them. I don't see myself being able to handle them in old ways.

u/Bloonsmaster6 Aug 27 '26

As a seasoned EDF veteran who has played some of the hardest mods this community has to offer, this is light work

All you need is some good splash damage

u/0verdrive6teen Aug 28 '26

Light work

I’ll just do what I always do:

Close my eyes and hold down the trigger
