- By far the best feature of Metal Slug 3D is its Slug customisation features, which allow you to outfit your otherwise familiar Metal Slug with better firepower, beefed up defences, speedier caterpillars, or, heck, even fly for a short while if you're so inclined.
Hidden amongst the adequate list of parts are "Gunner" parts: namely, "Gunner Core", "Gunner Legs", "Gunner Arms", and "Gunner Cannon". Each serves as an upgrade to your Slug on their own, but equip them all at once, and your Slug transforms into a bipedal mech and gets a new name: "Slug Gunner".
The Slug Gunner was introduced in 2003's Metal Slug 5. Hailed as the "Ultimate Evolution of Metal Slug", it took inspiration from the Rebel Army's Level Armour, which boasted abilities like melee strikes and hovering via jetpack, both of which would prominently feature in the Slug Gunner. In Metal Slug 5, in addition to being able to double jump with its jetpack and melee close range targets with its pile bunker, it was also capable of transforming between tank and walk modes on the fly, boasting speedier movement and granting the ability to mow down infantry while in tank mode, while walk mode allows the Slug Gunner to jump, turn around, and use its pile bunkers.
While it looks like a lot on paper, in practice the Slug Gunner in Metal Slug 5 was a rather unwieldy, slow, cumbersome, and all in all, an impractical Slug on the battlefield. In this game, the Slug Gunner has lost its ability to transform into a tank, though it compensates for being much faster on foot, and retaining its ability to mow over infantry for instant kills. The Gunner Cannon has a satisfying wide splash on impact, and travels much farther than the standard Slug's 127mm cannon (though it still has the same nasty habit of sailing right over close range targets). The pile bunker also does insane damage, capable of destroying enemy tanks in one two-hit combo on Normal difficulty, although pilots will need to note that the Pile Bunker's reloading animation cannot be cancelled in this game, and will happen automatically after a two-hit combo. Lastly, the Slug Gunner, even with no additional armour, has one more hit point than a standard Metal Slug, which of course can be further bolstered if you so choose with additional armour.
The Slug Gunner is a very immediately tantalising vehicle in MS3D/ MS2006, with much better mobility and overall firepower than the regular Metal Slug. Because its arms can rotate about all axes, the Slug Gunner is capable of shooting at a locked on target while moving from side to side, which the Metal Slug's regular Vulcan Cannons do not permit. This allows for the Slug Gunner to feasibly take on enemy helicopters in this game, unlike the tank based Metal Slug. However, because the Slug Gunner only has one arm for shooting, with the other arm taken up by the Pile Bunker, firepower from the machine gun is halved from the Metal Slug's twin 12.7mm Vulcan Cannons. Also, in spite of having a freaking jetpack, this thing doesn't even get any extra height in comparison to the Metal Slug's.
Because the bipedal Slug Gunner doesn't adopt tank controls like the other caterpillar based vehicles in the game, instead sharing the player character's on-foot controls, this makes the Slug Gunner an easier Slug for beginners to learn, albeit ironically as the Slug Gunner is a post-game unlock. Its weaponry is also a lot more flexible in range and application to those of the Metal Slug's, and in my opnion it simply suits the 3D playstyle of this game better, making the caterpillar based vehicles look and feel sluggish in comparison. - เกม

And just as I reply to your response, mentioning how the Slug Customisation is my favourite feature of this game, you upload this, amazing coincidence.
EDIT: Regarding the Slug Gunner not having additional armour in the description, you can still equip the Tempered Shield in the Armour division, I believe.
Frankly the only vehicle the works is yes the slug gunner
The customization is neat and all but controlling the tank sucks which makes the customization useless, its nice that it emulates real tank controls but that's the flaw, dodging is almost impossible since you move so slow and the environments your in tend to be tight
Boy your are a tank
Atleast the Rebels get to hit you unlike other games
Question: what parts would you need to recreate the Black Hound from Metal Slug 5/Metal Slug Advance?
Loving the recent uploads. This is the only game I havent played Haha
Will you be covering Metal Slug XX on your channel? It's on steam and would love to hear your thought about it (heard it's a bad port though)
I honestly tried playing 7 and XX. Honestly, it was really frustrating and not fun. It always felt to me like there was only one way to get through each section without dying, which is the same way you see all over TH-cam, done by many others. I don't see what I could add to it that others have not already done. Also, my firing fingers are slow as heck. I don't even know if I can kill the final boss as Tarma without getting a time over.
I hear they have been patching the Steam port, and it looks good from the outside. I especially salivate over the 60FPS gameplay, but otherwise the stage design is just urgh.
@@XSquareStickIt Ah, I see. That sucks to hear. I thought it was a solid entry but it's nice seeing it perceived in this way. Tbh, I only used Marcos so I can see why from your perspective the game is quite annoying. I mostly go through your vids (even though I played the games since childhood and remember the levels by heart) to read each video description and your intake on them. They're a fun read.
60 FPS Metal Slug is definitely something I have to experience. Hopefully my views of the game stays positive haha. At least the music was great to me.
@@XSquareStickIt Why not MS7 instead?
can anybody tell me how to get all the parts in the game as a whole? I've just finished getting all medals with all characters but there's still stuff missing to buy
Cool content.
Crossover duel question: Who would win in a duel? Slug gunner or Tails' cyclone?
How do you get the parts? Is there any video about finding all the slug parts? I can't seem to find any.
how do I unlock all the parts of slug gunner? I did unlock only one, which was probably from the mini-game, and I tried to finish the mini-game again to get more parts but it seems that's not how it works
I think you have to get S-ranks in every level and maybe you have to beat the game on hard mode.
a Metal Gear!?
Thanks for the good content
However, it would be nice to add this as well.
'To get any core of the slug gunner you have to play a mini game.'
Question.
Do you know the key command to walk slowly?

Read this for the slug gunner pieces
thanks for the info, so I have to play once the mini game for each part of the slug?
@@EricMayers102 All right.
You have to play mini games.
@@marcokorean9690 yeah now I understood xD I didn't realize that the CDs are actually the slug parts that we unlock to buy. I found a good guide online and could get eveything that was left
@@EricMayers102 Now that you know for sure, Enjoy the slug renovation play.
How well would the Slug Gunner stand against a German King Tiger or a Soviet T-72 or an M1 Abrams? If each one of those faced off against the Slug Gunner which would win?
The Slug Gunner would win due to its melee combat capabilities and far superior mobility. It even has a jetpack.
Someone should make the models or Npcs in Gmod
Also for SFM, but, he problem is, there is no way to view the files and stuff
I have a question, how to ride it? Using ps2 play it, can't ride it with only jump
Click the L3 button to mount and dismount vehicles
@@StevenCodeBlack thanks bro
@@greenlightfromyourhead Did it work?
@@StevenCodeBlack I even try yet, maybe later
Never expected to see you play Metal Slug 3D! How'd you like the game?
It is an almost inexcusable flaming pile of garbage with near zero redeeming qualities.
I kind of mini rant about it in each mission of the playthrough. The fact that I'm doing this on Normal instead of Hard should tell you how ludicrous it controls and how awful the camera is.
This game for ps2 is awesome and very fun, what The problem?, you have played?
SNK explained they wanted to move to 3D to compete in 3d gaming. Unfortunately, they did not want to try their luck in the western market because they knew it would be insulting for western game critics and players, so the game stayed region locked, but it had hidden translations files in English, Spanish, German hidden inside.
The only good thing I accept from this game is the Slug Customize, which allows us to customize the SV-001 Slug, by its parts to make it faster, change its main gun, vulcan, add armor for more durability, and its core. Second, is the weaponry that you can switch and refill them on the mission, and carry them over to the previous and next mission. The 3D modeling for each guns were at least shown in a concept art.
Last, but not least, the dimensional view of the game and its summary.
The rotation for the game is somewhat ludicrous, at least it gave us chances to react to the enemy and lock-on to them, so we could eliminate them with ease just like the 2D.
Overall, it was not all that bad. The only thing what makes this game bad is that they tried moving to 3D, some functions of this game (the ability to change many weapons seen in Metal Slug 6-7/XX, and customizing the slug to make it more powerful and durable) could have been implemented to the next game. Yes, I do accept the fact as the western players says that this game was an "insult" to the MS franchise.
It doesn't seems powerfull maybe if the steps are slow and kinda heavy it would've feel like it, like pacific rim
It turn to call of duty
