Zoids Battle Legends

[ShadowLiger]

Is it just me, or does Battle Mode on Zoids Battle Legends move slowly when compared to the vs, fist and mission modes?
Has anyone else noticed this on their copy?

[Shenny]

Can't say I have.

[ScissorBreaker]

it does. The versus modes are ridiculously fast. It's kinda funny, b/c death saurer is fast and stompy.

[Xehn]

It's due to processing. Battle is slow because of the teammate. It moves quicker when you're without a teammate. (And you get more money.)

[DigitalMan]

Oh, that explains why I haven't noticed it. I can never play with a partner, period; they end up killing me, sometimes before the enemy gets in a shot. Talk about *Watch your language!* AI, it's caused a few losses in story mode, too. And after you go through Battle mode the first time with no partner, you never think to try it out, even with three Ultra Z's to protect you XD

Ah, so it's all the team mate's fault!
I'll have to give it a try without and see what happens ^-^

Thanks!

I play with a partner all the time and haven't noticed any slowness.

The ally AI is much improved in Vs 3. Your partner isn't likely to wander off and leave you alone, and they'll only hit you if you get in the way of their intended target.

In the built up areas, like the city or the bases, I'm lucky if I see my team mate at all!

[Xehn]

It's not that much of a slowness, just barely enough to be noticed. You won't notice it until you play without a partner...

But it doesn't affect story mode, that I've noticed...

[ScissorBreaker]

buwah!?! three ultra zs? wow...somebody must have an action replay!

[DigitalMan]

Why would I need an Action Replay? Go through with Snipe Master until you can afford the Gojulas Giga with its cannons and boosters, and then just go through over and over again with no partner. I think I did it in two nights, and it gets faster with each Ultra Z (due to less damage taken and more time bonus). Then once you have three Ultra Z's, you get to have fun taking down the Ultrasaurus with the Rev Rapter's Counter Size, and the Death Saurer with a Gustav!

Besides, there are no good codes for the game ;_; If I had Action Replay codes I'd be using the Mega Death Saurer in Battle mode, or making speed and jump ability game-breakingly insane.

[ScissorBreaker]

well...I have 1 ultra z, and what I did was get 1 gojulas mariner and 1 gojulas irvine, which I darthed with boosters n' such. I was unstoppable. I then converted to darkhornism, getting 2 darkhorns w/ the twin gattlings (which I already had about a billion of b/c I bought them for all of my zoids that could carry them) I incorporated the ultra z in one, and we kicked arse for awhile, but that was until I started fighting ubers. But, i still fought w/ darkhorns b/c...well, darkhorns where my stick at the time. But even then, I still never got enough to afford the ultra z. I had an action replay once upon a time, but it got scratched and now it doesn't work. crap. AND I HATE GOJULAS GIGA. I didn't know the action replay would enable you to use Megasaurer in battle mode! Can it really?

[adamassc]

pfft. Digitalman should be ashamed of himself. Snipe Master is the ultimate zoid, far superior to Giggles. His only 'weakness' is his fragility, but thats a moot point if you're good.

[Xehn]

Hah, screw Giggles. Griffin with the cannons is easily just as good. No problem with being so slow like Giggles. >>;

[DigitalMan]

Bah, the Giggle's ain't slow with those three Ultra Z's Being nigh-uncrashable helps, too. I have to admit, though, the Snipe Master is incredible. I would never have tried it if it hadn't been so useful in story mode. Give it a booster, missile seat, and another missile set, bam. If you can snipe 'em, they're dead. If you can't snipe 'em, they're dead I actually went through with that after getting the Ultra Z's, because it's that awesome.

As for why I use the Gojulas Giga... it really is one of my favorite Zoids. You know why? Because I like power. I love power, and therefore I generally love Zoids with power. Slow and powerful, that's my thing; applies to CPC's as well. I also like the LeoBlaze... because I can stack so many weapons on it it shouldn't be able to stand. If only there were a way to put my Excessive Force custom into Battle Legends...

As for the Action Replay, the game was not popular enough to get really good codes, as far as I know. So sadly, the idea of equipping three Ultra Z's on a Mega Death Saurer, and/or amping speed and jump to ridiculous levels, remains only in my mind. And it makes me giggle. Hehe... hehehe...

"It couldn't be better... More power!"
