How's from Canada?

wenifredo, if you're asking how to play Field of Rebellion from Canada, you'll need a Japanese App Store or Play Store account to download the game (unless you download the APK from a third-party site) and a VPN that will let you change your location to Japan. If you don't want to pay for a VPN, you can use one that gives you a certain amount of free data per month (such as TunnelBear) - just remember to switch it off once you get past the game's title screen so it doesn't keep chewing through your data. Hanyoutai, the victory/defeat jingles are counted as sound effects rather than music, so I can't switch off the roars without losing them as well. I had a similar situation with the mechanical noises at the home screen - they're counted as music for some reason, so I couldn't record the home screen music without them - but they're not synced up to the music, so I just recorded a few loops and cut-and-pasted the bits without sound effects. Vig, I noticed you're down to only two or three missing weapons - any idea which ones? Also, would one of you be able to get screenshots of your Titles list (fifth button in the left-hand column on the Menu screen)? I'd like to know what the 500-win and 1000-win titles look like, and if there are any more level-based titles after level 15. I wasn't expecting any more updates after the Sturm Tyrann was introduced, but they've added a couple more things for the last month of the game. Firstly, a new Sturm Tyrann-exclusive SR weapon, the Charged Particle Cannon (SMT), has been sent to everyone's Present boxes, but will not be available from any kind of Container. Secondly, they've added a 2v2 option to VS Mode, which only lasts 5 minutes and doesn't give LP rewards for individual performance, but otherwise seems pretty much identical to the normal 4v4. They've also given everyone another 10000 free Zoid Gold, added a bunch of EX Metal to the login bonuses, and launched one last campaign. FoR players who answer this questionnaire by 26/7 will go into a draw to win one of two FoR-themed hoodies, one of ten FoR-themed smartphone coolers or one of five FoR-themed gamepads (all of which will come with one of those Card Colosseum-style Shield Liger cards from the event last year)... but as usual, you have to be a Japanese resident to qualify.

Thanks for the info! Here's a screenshot of the titles. The Tyrann's CPC is ok. I find it to be an effective way to tip over enemy Zoids. Got paired with a Tyrann who was obviously a geno user because he had the aim of that thing dead on! I think only missed 1 shot the entire battle. Even hit 2 Zoids in different locations with it once! With the raise in EX metal upon login I'm not sure it's worth keeping over anything else, though. I still prefer my 35mms. At the end of days I'm finding myself frustrated with certain weapon differences. For example, I see destroyers killing small Zoids with 2-3 bullets from the rare silver gats. I can unload an entire round and not kill a single one, and mine are EX level 99. I'm guessing this is up to the hidden stats of Zoids (anti-small Zoid attack power, etc.) Or maybe just the individual stats of the Zoids, but tbh I didn't think they were that much of a difference between destroyers. I've encountered a Blade Liger faster than my Liger Zero. When I'm using a lvl 10 Trinity I just wonder, how? Latency perhaps? 2v2 is proving to be tons of fun, though. I'm playing it almost exclusively because I still have many Zoid missions I want to get done. It's painful to see a partner with ~1000 LP, but then, a lot of the times when I think that we end up winning against high LP, high Spec Zoids. I got paired with a 289 LP Saix 3 times in a row and we won every time. He would go off to a base on his own, then when the enemies converged on him, he would lead them into my Tyrann hiding in the opposite bushes. The need to murder is most certainly a poor trait on this mode. Which makes it slightly less interesting than the other one, but it's a relief to know I can do quick battles if I'm just waiting on something. If you get paired with a good base-focused Zoid a Destroyer can be deadly, since defending the bases can cost a battle so quickly. Whether it's your battle or the enemies is a gamble!

I honestly don't know what weapons I am missing, Does Genosaurer also have a claw like Genobreaker?? Cause I only have on for Genobreaker. I could do a quick recording of them all again like last time if you like?
I know what you mean Han, I still feel they are way too harsh on destroyers when it comes to killing small zoids, It's mission impossible with Saber tiger. And that darned Rare gatling is on every liger zero out there now, it's 194 damage per bullet. I tried it a couple of times in a fully levelled Liger zero and even with Dwayne as the pilot the energy would run out quick and be so slow to come back though. But there are so may weapons out there now that make a fully level zoid feel like a low level fresh out of the workshop. I have given up on ever finishing the missions, as I still need to do both the apes, both the elephants, Dibison, all of which require it to be done in original form which is a death sentence now days. As well CA gojulas,Gordos, Schneider and Jager. The latter 2 I might have a bit of a go at in 2 vs 2. I needed to do them back before all the levels went sky high. 2vs2 is a real wild card, never know how the battle is going to go, there seems to be a lot of disconnects in it. Thankfully the enemy side in my case. I had one enemy Konig Wolf friendly running around with me whilst I destroyed the bases as their partner had vanished.

I was actually planning to ask you for another recording of the weapon database, but if you're missing anything that's still obtainable, might as well try to pick it up first. This list should cover everything besides the Tyrann's CPC, I think. (And no, Saurer doesn't get an extendy claw.) And thanks for the titles, Han! Looks like there's nothing after level 30, which means you could still theoretically get a complete set of titles... if not for the sheer amount of Zoids needing 30 wins >_>

Don't get me wrong, I'm going to try! I really doubt I'll get them all but the 2v2 makes it a lot easier.
Tough crowd tonight, though~ 3 battles in a row my ally disconnected either at the start or within the first minute (usually after they died to stupidity.) It's a tough world out there for a lone Tyrann! I managed in one fight to get a huge lead in points (1000 vs. their 400-something) but I made a calculated error of not protecting my Gojulas. Thought I could just destroy the base instead to win by points but unfortunately overestimated how much base firepower destroyers had. I knew it was low but I was blinded by hope. Would've been amazing to win a battle single handedly!
So many Zoids left to get missions for, but I've already got a lot of the really frustrating ones out of the way (I'm looking at you, Gordos/Dimetrodon.) The others I think I can work with. I just have to remember to, at the end, also get the pilot missions.

Funny that, Genosaurer is the original user of the extendy claw yet Berserk Fury got to have all the fun.
Ok, I'll see if I get anything else by doomsday before making any recording of the weapons database.
I thought maybe the 2vs 2 would be easier for missions too, well it might be for something like a liger zero, or even any zoid which can be upgraded but for the ones which require original form for missions, Just.. nope. Thought I'd take Gordos for a run in there, couldn't even get to the second half of the field without being taken out by a liger zero, ended up just hiding in a shelter shaking with fear whilst desperately trying to base repair the thing. No success lol. Unfortunately 2vs2 has no Spec matching so typically it's always vs's monsters in the millions.
My main focus is what to get to ex 99 next. Working on Saber tigers strike claw at the moment, it's already over 900 damage at like level 90 which is very nice, didn't know it went that high. Next I think I might upgrade The dual sniper rifle, Every one seems to be using it! So it must be good, literally in the last match there was only me and an enemy blade liger without one. Would look good on Konig wolf too. Funny how when it first came out it wasn't so popular.

Well, there's only 40 hours left before Field of Rebellion shuts down, and as I suspected, I've been so busy with Zoids Wild stuff that I haven't touched it for weeks. Fortunately there wasn't much else I was wanting to archive, mostly just the weapon stats (I'm counting on Vig for the ones I've missed) and Zoid upgrades (hopefully I can trust the walkthrough sites on these). I'll be at work when the actual shutdown happens, but I'll try to get in some "last-minute" playing tomorrow night. Then I'll have to get to work on archiving the Zoids Wild app...

Thanks for the reminder, here's a vid of all my weapons:, db.tt/DMePLhwyhS Still not sure if i'm missing something or not but.

Awesome, thanks! Turns out you did have everything (except the 1st anniversary Double Cannon), but one of them mustn't have been counted by the system or something, because your video had 166 weapons but your profile still said you had 165.
Aaaand Field of Rebellion has now ended. Sure, it had its flaws, but it was still probably the best of the Zoids mobile games (at least in terms of gameplay). I guess now we'll have to wait and see if the Switch game can fill that Zoids multiplayer void...

It was my favorite Zoids game to date, honestly. Not that I don't love story games, but there is no replacement in the Zoids fandom for live, interactive battles. Nothing that quite meets that standard. I'm heartbroken to see it gone, and even more sad for those who couldn't stay until the end. My last few battles were underwhelming, but I'm glad to have had them. The 2nd to last, we lost quite badly, thanks in part to an exploiting Iron Kong who couldn't take damage even at a complete stand still. The actual final, I forgot to record, haha. Thought I'd hit record but nope. Oh well~ I did get a win in my Saber Tiger and Zeek Dober, both of which deserved their battles, and my Saber Tiger took the last run. It deserves it, being my first dedicated Zoid. Much to my surprise, they posted four new visuals on the website, including the limited (twitter campaign iirc?) boxes. I'd never thought I'd see a high res Shieldy box! There's also a new webcomic, which I had suspected (read: hoped) they would sneak in on us. Thanks TT for all the hard work! I enjoyed this game a lot during its lifespan. My only regret is not getting a chance to remove the weapons from my Saber Tiger as, much to my surprise, matching didn't close for the last 20 minutes.

Yay I had everything! almost
Ah wow, what a ride that was. All those battles I had with you Hanyoutai were an absolute pleasure. Being in a zoid team with internet friends is like a dream come true. I have so much footage in storage to treasure too.
It's like now we're back to the old reality but at least with the new anime and kits there is still plenty going on in the zoids fandom to lessen the pain. I scrolled through my zoids in lunch break today saying a last goodbye to them and feeling quite sad lol. And managed to squeeze in a Saber Tiger match, a nice win with no deaths so it was lovely.
During the games lifespan I played a lot, made friends, made memories, took thousands of screenshots and had fun so no regrets really. I'm wondering what'll happen to the many ZOIDS FOR account mutuals on twitter, guess they'll become in active. Don't feel bad about leaving Saber Tiger Equipped , mine is too. The way I see it. They are better able to defend themselves in whatever afterlife they entered into.
The new visuals are nice! I love the FES label on saber tigers shoulder. Now, time to read this comic.... To the best of my ability until Falcarius translates it.
