There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
After they fix the laggy combat, it'll speed up the game play. Other than that and the build parts everyone is mad about, this game isn't bad by any standard. The levels are pretty interesting, with one being a snow base with tunnels and such. Colourful and not plain. If you give this game a chance, I have a feeling you'll see past the flaws and see the charming little gunpla game we finally have in the states. Don't scare off Bamco with this overwhelmingly negative reviews, or Western Bamco Gundam games will die out for good.
Anyhow, as a loyal follower of the original "Gundam Breaker" trilogy of games, I can tell you know that - while this game is not perfect, and was completely broken at launch - the game is at least competent.
That said, if you've played the other Gundam Breaker games - like I have - you're going to be disappointed with this reboot of the game franchise. As it promised so much, but stripped away a good chunk of what was loved in the original trilogy. And, due to this - it feels as if "New Gundam Breaker" is a "Proof of Concept" game, that focused on gameplay that would normally be reserved for a versus mode.
Luckily, because of this - the actual online matches against other players does feel good. However, when it comes to a single player experience - you're better off playing "Gundam Breaker 3", or if you can read Japanese "Gundam Breaker 2".
Longer story shortened: This game is an okay game, and runs smoothly (now that the fixer patch has been released). And, despite all the claims otherwise - it is worth buying if you enjoy playing team-based competitive multiplayer modes.
**What you gain**
--Chaotic 3v3 brawls with no sense, strategy, or reason
--A weaksauce dating simulator (no I am not kidding!) which affects the branching story paths
--More mobile suits than GB3 (eventually, via DLC)
--Equip new parts during combat
--Insane lag in the UI and combat
--Periodic freezes in the UI and combat (especially when using the parts equip function in combat)
--The worst combat system I've seen in a game since Oni for PS2
--The worst Gundam game, possibly ever
What you lose (Compared to GB3):
--NO more parts fusion to improve your gear
--NO Derive Merge to get rare MS parts from other, lesser parts in the same lineage
--NO more SD MS helper
--NO more choosing AI Wingmen
--NO CO-OP for story, just the horrendous 'brawl' garbage that permeates the entire game
--CONSTANT parts breaking (detachment from your MS) that results in designing a 'perfect' MS being utterly *pointless*, as you will have parts blown off within moments and probably NEVER get them back for the duration of the mission
--PARTS HAVE DURABILITY: so, kiss your Barbatos Lupus Rex arms goodbye, because eventually their HP degrades and you are forced to use the new parts-equip mechanic
--Parts gained after missions are *utterly random* unless you BANK parts you picked up in a literal toy chest, which makes you 100% vulnerable while holding the button to bank them. Get hit? Sucks to be you, start holding the button again.
--Paint tool is stripped down significantly
--NO difference between MG and HG parts, statistically
--Builder's Parts mean *nothing* now, you cant strap on weapons, funnels, etc etc etc
--EX moves are locked into your parts and DONT EVEN WORK at first
--Forced to level up your 'inner frame' to unlock access to your EX moves. EVERY. SINGLE. LEVEL. It *will reset* every time, period.
--no more customization of 'Burst' or 'Awakening' abilities
--cannot 'master' EX abilities from part A and then use them on a MS that does not USE part A
--MASSIVE decrease in overall MS design options
--Actual fluid, enjoyable combat
--The ability to AIM GUNS
--Any sort of functional lock-on mechanic (seriously, combat is more chaotic than a Michael Bay Transformers action sequence)
--Any sort of enjoyment
--Possibly, your soul
I cannot stress enough how horrifically, ungodly, devastatingly AWFUL this game is. This is an utter disaster that should never have been burned to disc or encoded as a data download. I will be taking this to Gamestop this evening, so I can lose the least possible money on this piece of garbage. Side note: said trade in value is $26.40, and yes I am happily eating the loss because there is no way to fix this mess of a game without ripping out the entire engine and transplanting GB3 into it. Do yourself a favor and get a copy of Gundam Breaker 3: Break Edition, from the Singapore market. It has full english subtitles and menus, and is a phenominal game in every way that New Gundam Breaker is a complete disgrace of one. With any luck, the massive fallout from this game (Forbes has already picked up on the Japanese media around how much the game is hated in Japan) Bandai-Namco will make more GB3 DLC as a mea culpa for slapping the taste out of the loyal fanbase with NGB.

Combat system is unresponsive. When ennmies gang up on you, which happens a whole lot, good luck trying to get out of there alive. Suit count is much lesser than GB3. Gunpla customization is now dull because one, the collecting mechanic is tedious and complicated for No. Reason. Whatsoever. other than "lets make the game harder" and two, you cannot even level parts up, which means whatever has the best stats is what you should use. Online is dead, because who even plays this game anymore. Actually, who even buys NGB to do competitive PvP anyway. I'm sorry if I misunderstand that part, I'm a solo player.
Notice that I gave 2 stars, because I judge that there are a small amount of good points. First of all, in the photo mode, there are more poses and backgrounds than ever. Second point, the girls are actually pretty cute and likeable, although good lord, they're basic as heckers. Third and last point, the story isn't as predictable as you could think.
I guess that's it.
Now I'll insert GB3 in my console and resume playing this better game instead. while waiting for a maybe possible whoknowssometimesthatcouldhappen update that might fis things up. Goodnight.
- Like other reviews have said, at random times during combat the frame rate will absolutely tank for no apparent reason; waves of enemies spawning, certain abilities being used, it seems to be completely random as to what triggers it.
- For a game that promotes building and customizing your own Gundam, you're forced to Frankenstein in the middle of a battle as your parts can and will be broken off and unrecoverable forcing you to use either whatever you pick up off the ground or activate an ultimate ability for a temporary buff in stats and a restore to the condition you had at the stage's start.
- Part collecting has become an absolute chore, as you're limited to holding 5 spare parts at a time that you have to deposit into a bin to save for the mission end so you can continue collecting. As you do so you become completely vulnerable to attack and interruptions so the enemy team can either bullrush you or complete mission objectives while you aren't around.
Quite frankly, I feel like I could write a full-length essay with how thoroughly I've been disappointed with this game; do yourself a favour and DO NOT buy it, even if it goes on a flash sale.
