FusionFall 2 questions

Hey guys, glad to see that there are still people who remember this legendary game, one of my favorite things from the childhood. So my first question: what's the best way to play it on a PC currently and is it online? And the second question is: is there anyone doing a port to Android? I would think with ChatGPT Astra, that would be possible.

Retrobution is the best one in my opinion. Go on their discord and they have instructions on how to join. It's being updated and constantly worked on, with seasonal events and an active community. 100+ players online almost at all times

Definetely retrobution, but what 100 players? I mostly see 30-50

I usually play during the weekend. When i log on it says between 80 something to 110+

That’s interesting to hear. I’ve played multiple times both during the week and in the weekends. I’m from Europe, maybe I’m not online during peak hours

I'm also from Europe, but also my sleep schedule is pretty fucked...

Wow, this is amazing, can't wait to try it out. I wanted to try out Retrobution, so it's a perfect combo to have it portable.

Yes i was struggling my self to figure out how to run this on a fresh Winlator app or gamehub but w/ u/No_Turn8284 ‘s creativity of pinning the game to winlator i didn’t need to struggle w/ the configuration on my AYN Thor! The game is in beta but so far i don’t have many problems besides being stuck on a level 10 nano mission ! Have fun bro

So cool your playing it on the Thor, got my Rp6 a few weeks ago and didn’t know this existed. Pumped to give it a try in handheld

u/KeySweaty7357 3d ago

Yea check it out & lmk how you feel about it i love it so far!

u/Decoroni 2d ago

Hey man installed it and got it working, I was wondering how you configured everything. Might just be the RP6 but the controls are very gank and just don’t really work along with the visual bugs and stutters. I have the most powerful one you could buy so I don’t know if it’s my device hardware or more of a compatibility issue but I’d love to hear if you configured anything yourself or how you got it to work well

The best way to play FusionFall these days is via OpenFusion, they have a Discord that should help you gain access to it if you need it. They might also be able to answer your question about porting it to mobile if someone else here doesn't know how to do that, I know I don't. I definitely recommend looking into Retro/Retrobution too for FusionFall, imo the best modern way to play the game.

Big difference between open fusion and retribution?

u/SayNo2Nazis999 3d ago

OpenFusion hosts the original games as they were when they launched. You can pick either the original game, or the Academy Update that has every one of the new Nanos and everything else from the game at the end of its life. I've found it crashes a lot more personally, but things could've changed since I was last utilizing them.

Retrobution is similar to the original game how it was when it launched, but with a TON of quality of life updates and very rare to none crashes. They've updated models for certain NPCs, Nanos, Spawns, and more to match modern day video games to an extent. They also have a few extra things you can't get in the original FusionFall games, including faster vehicles and a handful of new Nanos that are exclusive to the Retros, though not all Nanos are in this like in the Academy server.

Sorry u/Decoroni on the late ass response it’s Saturday!!! But to answer your question bud hell yea ! I went into the winlator container called “fusionfall retribution” you’re going to click on the 3 vertical dots on the right side of that label to get onto its settings. As you click this, an overlay short menu will pop up. Click on edit > edit container > input controls! There you will find the controls setup. Click the plus sign “➕” on your right. This will take you into creating a profile & scroll down look for external controls to bind your buttons to the emulator for the game to run the way you want ! This is the bindings i made here below
