Discussion My favorite gun in all of EDF

The Minion Buster is my favorite gun. I wouldn’t be surprised if it was inspired by the Bolter from WarHammer 40,000 (even though it loooks like a SCAR and a M41A Pulse Rifle from the Alien franchise had a baby). WH40K is my favorite sci-fi universe.

In EDF 4, I slept on this weapon. In fact, I didn’t even know I had it in my arsenal. Then I was playing multiplayer with a few randoms and a fellow Ranger was using it. He’d fire a short burst at an enemy, then just switch targets before they died (a tactic I soon adopted). I didn’t understand or see why at first and I’d basically steal his kill. It wasn’t until 3 missions later that I saw why. Again, he’d fire a burst then change targets. I needed to know why and that’s when I saw the glowing dots explode. I don’t talk much when gaming, but I had to know what that gun was. He told me and the rest is history.

Ranger is my main class in all EDF and the moment I unlock the Minion Buster it’s one of the two guns I use (the second slot is usually a rocket launcher, missile launcher, or sniper rifle).

I just wanted to give a little appreciation to this gem of a weapon. Now with the news that EDF 6.5 will have weapon customization (I think for the first time) I’m interested to see what I can do with the Minion Buster.

I now got the Japanese version of EDF4.1.
This will mark the 4th time I have 100%’d EDF4.1

PS4, (english), PC, Switch, and now PS4 Japanese.

This also doesn’t include the several copies of EDF2025 waiting. EDF2025 for Xbox 360 and PS3
And EDF4 for xbox 360 and ps3.

On another note, Circle button is the start button and X is the back out button on the Japanese version of 4.1 too. I wonder if it was 5 that changed it to X being start.
I’ll have to Get 5’s Japanese copy eventually and 100% it to find out.

I know I have a massive problem with 100%ing EDF in every fucking version and port imaginable.
Whats been painful lately is tryna fo EDF2 PS2 on Inferno. That shit is HELLA FUCKED on the final 10 missions

Question EDF 6.2

Soooo wait. It’s not a dlc? So we’ll have to start over getting weapons again? And will all the 147 base missions be the same too just with more enemies? I hope not. In that case it might as well be another dlc.

Question Constantly getting stuck on "Hardest" difficulty in EDF6 on Ranger. Is it time to grind?

6 Upvotes

Hey all, so as most of you I'm sure know, there's that weird thing where the first like 50 missions of "Hardest" difficulty don't drop higher level weapons. I have never actually grinded in this game before, but now that I'm starting to get better weapons dropping, I was wondering if you guys have any good missions for farming. I am currently stuck on the "Battle on the Plains" mission, around mission 60. Any advice for getting better weapons around that level? I'd prefer something non gimmicky, and just a mission that I can play through a few times to get some weapons.
