Topic: Official Unofficial StarFox discussion thread

Game looks awesome.  I can't wait to see what the warps look like on the 3DS.

I had fun with Command...

*hides*

It was certainly the best post-64 Star Fox, even if that's not saying much.  But the game could have used a traditional control mode.  Also, while I loved the variety of characters, scenarios, and endings, there should have been one "definitive" ending set apart from the rest.  The first-pass one is pretty lousy.

I don't object to the theory of Fox getting the girl (who would?), but with the execution of Star Wolf's Panther being her "mother's house" where she runs when there's a problem, it's kinda hard to not see Krystal as a [sonic slicer].  She is literally defined by her love interests.  Had she signed up with Corneria or Katina, without the lure of a rival lover, she might not have come off as being so shallow.

Holy freaking crap this thread is almost 5 years old but we didn't have a Star Fox 0 thread.  Anyway I wanted to post the Star Fox 0 anime short here.

I'd totally watch a Star Fox animated series.

Judging by the comments I think anyone would.  I really do have to wonder why Pepper gives pieces of his fur as a good luck charm.

Also it's been 10 days since they came back from Sauria......if Krystal is in the next game please don't [tornado fang] it up like last time.

Holy [parasitic bomb] the controls are janky.

the reticle keeps getting dis-calibrated.

Its fun, but i really can't get used to the motion controls.

[Sakura Leic]

Yeah the learning curve is a bit steep, but you'll get it eventually and then you'll have lots of fun.  That seems to be the general concensus of it if you stick with it.

[Hypershell]

I've seen people defend the controls and I've seen people rip them apart.  I dunno, I need to try it for myself, but I will say that I miss the days when Nintendo included multiple control setups in the same game.  They seem to have gotten away from that in the last year or so for some reason.

[Sakura Leic]

Yeah admittedly having multiple control settings would be ideal but it is what it is unfortunately.

[irgpie]

I guess I'll put this here like the official anime short was

Could not be anymore contrasting to that, but I quite like it.

[OBJECTION MAN]

So is this game any good. Is it even in the same galaxy as SF64? (Pun sort of intended.)

[Sakura Leic]

It depends on how you approach it, you have to take it slow.  The main thing you have to know is that until you master the controls the game will be very difficult, once you do get used to them whether you like them or not is a matter of opinion. 

The level design seems to compensate for the multiple vehicles you get since it's explorative and there's different win conditions like the 64 version.  In fact it pretty much the 64 version of Star Fox, since you know reboot and all, but with lots of remixed level designs and changes.  So yes it is the same galaxy.  In fact the game has 19 different possible ways to get to your goal because of the different path ways. 

So yeah I say don't give up on it too early and really try to get used to the controls to get your own opinion on them.  It's a kind of game that kind of at least deserves a fair chance I think, but again whether if you'll like the controls at the end of the day is up to you.

Also there is a co-op function you can try where one person controls the Arwing with the control pad and the other controls the shooting with the game pad if you're interesed as well.

I found out today that a friend of mine voiced Fox in that The Battle Begins short.

Which is pretty cool.

[Sakura Leic]

Damn that's pretty freaking awesome.
