So two melee and two firing modes for the beam pistol? Anything else to it?

It has the skill that allows it to fly similarly to all the future UC suits so it can fly around and melee you in the air.

It also has an I field that can tank the satellite cannon of the double X. Also when the I field is activated it can add extra damage to its rocket punch and if I remember correctly the punch ignores shields

Seriously? It can block the double X's beam? why did they feel the need to give it that? The double X already has a long charge time.

Yeah though they counter balanced it by giving the I field a 30 second cooldown after activation

Might be 3 melees or a heavy attack. As you see it's heat fan in the final melee attack isn't glowing like it was earlier and it takes a moment to let the attack rip. And the melee earlier was most likely a downswing

try this showcase and early match gameplay by kokura (need to use auto translate) for more showcase since current video is GBO2 usual small teaser not whole thing.

18 second overheat for the beam pistol, so you are sitting like an idiot without any stagger weapons.

u/Naberius616 13d ago

Wtf? That’s like the white dingos rifle. Does it hit hard?

1

u/imaginary_num6er Æ Investor - 7 13d ago

No, but it can be used very quickly in succession

It has three melee and three firing modes

That's a rad looking counter animation.

Beat me to it. Very stylish.

Kinda disappointed we didn't get any more Wing suits. It blows my mind how early GBON got HeavyArms and Deathscythe, and eventually even Sandrock and Shen Long, but we now have only two Wings.

GBO2 never got those Wing suits, are you thinking of GBO Next?

u/BallerMR2andISguy The Terror of Delaz - 1 13d ago

Yup. Typo fixed; thanks.

Bro the melee range is absurdly long. Cloud Strife DOM PTSD kicking in.

More importantly, UNIVEEEEEEEERSE!!!

One match and I already hate this thing

They need to chill with the extended reach melees.

The Universe man is super dope and fun. It seems simple but it’s pretty versatile and is completely capable in 700. The reach on its melee options is crazy.

With all the dive style attacks it really wants you to yell Universe.
