Fan funding and sharing my videos among friends, greatly helps to support Boomstick Gaming. Thank YOU!
I will try to answer as many questions as I can about the game and my full review will be up in just a few days so stay tuned!
Boomstick Gaming you seem really busy 🤔
Is that good or bad lol?
Sell on Steam or Epic ?
Whats the helmet you have on trooper and how can I get it?
Bruh the prowl rider is like he’s from attack on titan
Pretty much yeah! In game it actually feels a lot like Spider-Man as well.
i literally just had the same thought... XD lol
The moment I saw the hooks shoot out from his waist the aot season 1 op theme started playing in my head, especially since the first clip has him with a sword

*FINALLY ...*
*Someone is talking about the new EDF*
The Prowl Rider is basically the *Vertical maneuvering equipment*
from "Attack on Titan"
That is the primary reason I got into (someone else playing and me watching) this game.
this game deserved more than "Mixed review" on steam
jesus the jump in production quality is insane
It's quite amazing! Going from looking like super low budget xbox or ps2 games to this beauty. Just wow
Damon Smith I prefer the hordes of enemies and even worse frame rate, thanks
The thing is thats the compromise most fans gladly take. Better framerate and MUCH more enemies for worse graphics. Good deal
Yah i prefer good fun gameplay than detailed graphics as the low budget graphics help the framerate stay strong at times
it's a really nice sidestep but I think it loses some of the charm of raw b movie antics. So I'm glad both are out there
Haters gonna hate, but I think both 5 and Iron Rain are great EDF games, played thousands of hours both and liked every second of it.
Iron rain and Insect armageddon for me. Don't even know the hour count for those its so much fun
@@lycanknight7850you still play online? I just got iron rain
prowl rider is my fav already just by looking at it. It's giving me some anime vibes as well like attack on titans and god eater I can tell am gonna enjoy this game and good tips too :)

It would be good to note that the prowl rider can have air battles with flying enemies by grappling on to them. When fighting a bunch of drones with the swords, I ended up being much higher than I could get with a jet lifter by the time I was done killing them all.
Furthermore, as a pro tip, using a charge attack with a sword will allow you to keep your height/momentum while allowing you to recharge.
I am madly in love with the air lifter, however, the heavy striker is by far the best if you have the right guns with immaculate range. Sitting across the battlefield and sweeping across with a laser beam, or using 7 shot lasers in tandem with each other gives for some of the most satisfying mission clears you can have until you get better guns with reload speeds that won't make you miss it.
An excellent commentary and breakdown of each class, and in an informative, but not dry or overly long, presentation. Very nice to see.
Rip air raider your Vegaltas and Tanks will be missed
It is not gone
They are still alive.
Iron Rain = Westernized EDF with Less Enemies on the Map
YukitoOnline It’s basically insect Armageddon 2
@@Akabinxstar hey, insect Armageddon was awesome
It looks 'better' than the usual EDF titles, but at the same time it doesn't have nearly enough bugs or insane enough weapons to be a true EDF game.
Silim wait until you play. you will see it is true EDF.
@@zoe_gamer_girl it's a Spin off. Sequel to Insect Armageddon.
That's not a bad thing though.
EDF 1-5 = EDF East
EDF IA & IR = EDF West
@@IzThatit Don't want to be "that guy" but just for clarification - you're actually wrong. Only Insect Armageddon was made by a western studio.
Iron Rain is made by Yukes. Which is a Japanese studio who is most known for the bad wrestling WWE games.
@@zoe_gamer_girl I want to stay positive, but I can't justify paying full price for something that just doesn't look like the real EDF experience.
@@SilimSavertin I noticed when he was in the menu for the heavy striker that one of the weapon catagories was "satellite" so I have high hopes.
I just started playing this with my 4 year old son and I'm pretty sure he's a collaborator for the aliens. He keeps telling me they are nice robots and he keeps trying to shoot me instead of the bugs. Friendly fire my asshole! 🤨
Aww hahaha, that's so adorable XD
Very nice video, bud! Honestly I was having trouble midway through the game. Just couldnt seem to stop failing missions and it was really bringing down my experience. Then I just kicked it to easy mode and became and unstoppable killing machine until I unlocked a ton of weapons and gear. Now I'm free to experiment with the harder difficulties with different combinations. Truly a hidden gem on the ps4 and the most fun I've had with a video game in a while
I've never heard of this game but it looks freaking amazing.
I'm enjoying the Prowl Rider ALOT with that kickass ability to have a spider summon a horde of baby spiders to destroy everything. Fave class out of the entire series.
Great, a second EDF game that may or may not be on PC one day. Now to try and forget it exists until that day comes.
I know right :/ I want this on pc!
KnaveSkye ugh who wants those nasty mods
@@mossadismoslembtw1704 it's not about having mods, it's about being able to play it, not everyone owns both pc and console 😐
Yeah, I was a bit disappointed it is not on pc. But still, a great EDF game makes me happy.
KnaveSkye this on xbox
This is pretty good tips, simple and easy to understand.
Concidering i played through the first edf game this is a real change from what im use to ( also edf insect Armageddon was side story I never played thankfully )
@@millerlucerojames yeah do you play solo or with friends?
@@Ghosttea I play solo on the missions since i didn't have a Xbox live account and before my system burnt up
@@millerlucerojames haha at least you enjoy the game!
@@Ghosttea true
Love the video, didn’t even know what this game was. Looks fun
Wow the prowl rider is pretty awesome. They all are! I like the changes they made from the main EDF series, though I am still missing the Air Raider.
Yeah, I am hoping that this game still has those crazy air strikes. Maybe the trooper uses them just like EDF 5?
I'm sure that everyone will be able to summon airstrikes
I'm sold on the heavy striker with the way it boost around. This really helps with how to handle the classes.
Better than Anthem.. 😂
Better than Crackdowns 3 😂😂😂
Better than The Last of Us 😂😂😂😂
Okay its better than what EA can put out
@Kaboom Baby yep but most of us actually nothing more than a another cash grab ... Sadly i don't own neither play anthem which is probably a good thing
Better than any AAA shit.
Huh, it's already out? Is it console exclusive? Cuz I want it on pc....
Wait a year or two
@@somebaldman2526 Have to stick to Shadow of New Despair and Risk of Rain 2 till then...
Time to wait
Only on playstation 4

ok fine you got my attention now i just need to find 60$
I need more than that for the many amazing games that recently released. Sekiro,maybe dmc5, the new single player starwars game, crash team racing and so on
@@rinnnnnnnnnnrin i feel your pain
@@rinnnnnnnnnnrin why would you buy solo games... Just search skidrow or fitgirlrepacks on google, you shouldn't be disappointed
@@poopcock4357
You are bad guy
The Trooper is like the Storm-One from EDF3P (PSVita) or EDF 2017 (Xbox360) is just a "Air Rider" at the same time! To be honest is better like that. I can't wait to play the game ;p! Thanks for your video! it can help newcomers for this type of game ^^ (EDF! EDF! EDF!)
Edit: that's why they put The Storm-One's uniforme on the Ultimate version of EDF: Iron Rain :p
when i saw 6:10 "is this attack on insect?"
I loved No4. 1. This looks SOOO much better 👌👏👏👏👍
The prowl rider is technically Attack on titan meets ant man with some iron man and excalibur from warframe (cuz of the sword shooting the lazer projectiles).
Anyone can use the sword weapons. In fact, there are no class restrictions when it comes to your weapon loadout in this game.
@@harlannguyen4048 Well gud to know, thx.
Woooh, heavy firepower. But the prowl rider looks fun too.
Im still remember playing the first edition eart defend force aaahhhh nostalgia
I'm amazed that you didn't make the comparison between attack on titian and the prowl rider
So we have the Ranger, the Wing Diver, the Fencer, and the Attack On Titan Scout. Nice.
thanks vro
This game looks awesome I'm buying
I want this so bad...
EDF insect Armageddon was one of my first games and the first game I finished
Damn the last time playing this game was on ps2 . It was beautiful how the ufo looks
YEEE NEW EDF
Imma be waiting for it on xbox, I hope, fan of the EDF series
3:35
JUSTICE RAINS FROM ABOVE!
I don’t mind the merger of classes actually , they should have gave the wing diver dual wield short swords or something , since they’re introducing swords into the series. I personally think the air raider and ranger were the same thing , they just did different stuff .. in EDF5 the AR was the most broken class next to WD, but what they lacked was mobility, defense , and offensive capabilities when it came to quick and close encounters. But this looks very dope can’t wait to play it!
I didn't know that iron rain came out after or was better than EDF 5. It's like if EDF took its self seriously
Also where did you get the Elizabeth Laser rifle and the lazer gatlin gun Achmed? I'm quite jelly seeing those weapons in action.
the design of the heavy gunner in 4.2 looks infinitely better than the new heavy in iron rain.
You mean fencer?
@@dakotadawn5789 yes. But you got the point.
Damn, I already decided between trooper and the second one and decided to like the second one more, but then every other class you showed made me go 'yep gonna use that in the future'
Edit: OK, after testing out all of them, I have to say the flying one is still my favorite.
The E-Needle is very difficult to use in some occasions, while flying is always easily achieved. The E-Needle would be awesome if you could shoot the ropes to the side or back for quick dodges, but if you are stuck in a mess of bugs in front of you, you barely can get out of there.
The point of the hooks is that you keep the bugs at arms length. The prowl rider is actually the fastest class, noticeably outpacing the Jet Lifter when used properly.
@@ZZMonkeysUncleZZ I'm probably just bad, but I always ended up getting too close or run out of energy and then run into the issue I wrote (not being able to hook on anything cause my view is blocked by enemies)
EDF! EDF! EDF!
EEEEE DEEEEEE EEEEEF!
I'm starting to catch a reference with the prowl Rider from AoT
It is time to take the fight to the enemy! Starship trooper style!
my favorite game is hack and slash!
prowl rider : hold my excalibur
This game looks amazing. I've played the main EDF franchise games, and I've always loved the Trooper/Soldier class. Think I'll have to get this game too! Is Iron Rain even out yet?
Exclusive to PS4 digitally since Thursday the 11th.
Eren : we need backup
Prowl rider : i got u guys
Eren : ho is he
I love wing diver but ... Prowl Rider is just so cool
bieng stun locked and frozen as the heavy striker is a nightmare, but sometimes, just sometime i think the dual wielding perk is worth it.
I need this game on PC, I hope one day for the port
Why is it that something feels off or missing but I admit prowl rider is badass
Pro Tip on the Heavy Striker: If you have something that makes a really big boom but don't like getting damaged by your own explosion, you can put up the Energy Wall THEN fire: you won't get damaged and you blow everything in your face to hell.
How did u unlock heavy striker?
@@EpicPour99 Just keep on playing, I believe its mission 7 or 8.
@@clayisahottie I just finished level 8.. no new character. I'm playing in easy and got AA on all 8 levels
@@EpicPour99 Just keep at it. I can't remember exactly but it should unlock soon. Also Prowl Rider is kick-ass!
@@clayisahottie reddit says level 13 and 20.. I'll keep trying
As much as I'm hyped for this game, but there is this one thing that really annoys me:
- using items costs money... the same money you need to buy other weapons.
As much as I love the usable items system, but this basically means that I only use them once to test these items and never again, since it hinders my progress.
I think limited uses are enough to balance these items, but throwing money away is too much. ^^"
That's why I've never bought arms in DmC 5 and that's why I've never used the hat-weapon, since using it costs red orbs.
Anyway, that's the first game I'm hyped for that's released on my B-Day, and it still will be the best B-Day ever cause of it. x)
I also can't really say what's the coolest gear for me, since every single one is awesome in its own way.
But since I love mobility, I would say either the "Jet Lifter" or "Prowl Rider". :)
I still can see myself having fun wrecking stuff while dual wielding.
Yeah and the trooper always has a special place.
Sure, now he has this dodge, but overall, he feels more grounded and the game turns into "Soldier VS. Aliens/Bugs" instead of "Fancy Flying Superarmor VS. Aliens/Bugs".
Arms in dmc cost very little, and the hat weapon is actually the best way to get more orbs.
I have only played the fencer and heavy classes, looks like I am gonna play Striker
Remembered playing this on a ps2
prowl i dont really care about the ride but spidermaning about is nice
Waiting for it to be released on PC
Good luck grinding so many crystals and coins to use those items. The crafting element is going to be fuuuuun.
Where do you get the helmet that you used for the trooper?
Here you seen the Xbox series X tests on backwards compatible game? Mostly frame rates improved all around without patches. Very curious to see EDF 2017 on series X
Lost planet 2 is my all time fave & underrated game. I've always wondered why we never saw another but I'm starting to wonder if edf games might scratch that itch?
Sadly no, this isn't going to scratch the itch Lost Planet 2 left behind. They're extremely different games, despite a somewhat similar premise of shooting giant bugs.
We did see another Lost Planet. Lost Planet 3 was pretty awful, and it vastly underperformed compared to its successors. Ater that they shelved the franchise and haven't touched it since. With any luck, now that Capcom seems to finally be getting out of its years long slump, we may see new life in some unused franchises.
@@ZZMonkeysUncleZZ I didn't think lp3 was all that terrible just a completely different type of game. I was definitely let down that it wasn't like the others but I can understand why they tried something knew since it didn't sell well enough. I think there is a much bigger audience for gangs like lp2 now so hopefully someone dusts it off.
Im gonna miss air raider, with those bombardment
Two questions - Is there even more content than in 4.1? And how is the split-screen performance?
I am curious as well
Way less content. Only around 50+ missions
honestly, I think the prowl rider is the coolest and most fun to play, yet at the same time, I end up going jet lifter because FUGGIN JETPACK!
Attack of the Insects!
That jet lifter dash on the ground or just forwards should be available to the wing divers in 5 and 6 it's a shame it's not
Where's my damn Air Raider? Don't tell me they cannabalized my class for the others.
Jet Lifter is Air Raider
@@kasumishindo9022 Jet lifter is Wing Diver. Air Raider was a special, special boy, whose guns were pretty garbage but had bunch of fun support equipment, artillery strikes and mech suits and he was the only one who could call it all in.
@@teamflyboys Thanks for clearing that up, I had forgotten that it was called Wing Diver. I have a question though about the length of Iron Rain compared to Edf 5, is it shorter?
@@kasumishindo9022 apparently Iron Rain is about half the length of the other games with a little over 50 missions.
@@GeneralMaranta Thank you for letting me know, I appreciate it ^^
Alright where is petition to sing? I Want this on PC! PLEASE!!!
I hope you can mix and match weapons on the Fencer class :d
Nope. You choose a weapon, that weapon is dual-wielded
Attack on Insect. The Prowl Rider.
Better than Anthem?
The909Virus sure seems like it
Way different games
I mean, is it hard to be better than Anthem?
But will the genocide gun be in this?The one in Insect Armageddon was fun.
So was the one in edf 2017.
2017's was the best. Insect Armageddon's were great, and were definitely game breakers, especially on the heavy armour, but the one in 2017 pretty much made the entire horizon explode.
@@ZZMonkeysUncleZZ The one in 2017 would literrally crash the game sometimes for me XD
They took it out of 2024 because it caused too much problems.
Wich one was the 2017 Edf?I'm a bit lost.
Steve Radroach EDF 2017 or some may say EDF 3. But it’s really EDF 2017 since it takes place in 2017.
6:10 Sie sind das Essen und Wir sind die Jaeger!
Omg an actually good looking edf? Count me in!
Prowl Rider 7:20 the perfect PA for any Fanny user or Attack on Titan fan
I don't suppose you can do a list of weapons, items, and vehicles from low to high? everybody else did PA gears and/or AA weapons but not the other stuff.
Does the Heavy Striker have any melee weapons. The Prowler looks fun, but I'm still having a blast in 5. Boostdashing with a Vulcan Hammer into a group of frogs is nothing short of awesome!
Thats something you may have do see for.your self
Yeah Google was the best way to find out. Wasnt going to stop me from purchasing it in the future!
I would like to know more.
Looks 100x better then anthem
The jet lifter can have infinite flight if you use a sword
heavy striker is the maser dominate sort of to say which I play nearly the rest my way just using that class because some players like to play as a tanky attacker because we can turtle the dmg and avoiding bs exploding crap, the only thing we can't turtle an enemy is the final boss they auto break the shielding.
Wait, the air raider was replaced by the scouts from AoT
Prowl Rider Bruh
@@keradgame4965 it was a reference. It’s from attack on Titan, prowl rider and the scouts are similar
ughh need this on PC versionn
spiderman in grey armour
did anyone else start singing the AoT theme when seeing the prowl rider?
Yep
That's the most AOT thing i ever seen in other fanchise and genre
30 seconds till launch!
Ok, Attack-On-Titan class is now my favorite
Can you armor farm or is the hp just set to 3.4k?
In the new dlc invisible trooper is a thing
The heavy
Waiting for EDF 6. This is like Insect Armageddon which I personally don't like.
I love the crazy EDF like 4.1, 5 etc. With crazy voice acting and worried proffessors with theories like Ohara.
And the EDF Song. To save our mother earth from an alien attack....!
I only have jet rider and soldier. Do u have to unlock prowl etc?
Yeah you have to progress a bit to unlock the Heavy Striker and Prowl Rider.
Why do I see attack on titan theme being played with prowl rider ? ... And for the large enemy groups ( may it being in desert areas or being swarmed ) i opted out for the heavy striker
Wait there’s no plasma cannon welding wing divers?
