  • Unfortunately, although there are lots of fantastic levels and stages in video games, there are also a fair few awful ones.
    Well, would you believe it? I accepted long ago that Advance Wars was dead and buried forever, but then out of nowhere, a new remake of the first two games is winging its way to the Nintendo Switch!
    It's brought back a lot of nostalgic memories for me, and to celebrate the return of this much-loved series, I decided to criticize it once again, just like the old days!
    Advance Wars 2 at first appears to be an improvement on the original in every regard, but while the campaign mode is fun, I've always felt it was a little lacking in some areas. Allow me to explain...

      I can't think of a nice way to say this, but your post bugs me enough that I still have to say it. Your viewpoint makes no sense at all to me. Having pre-deployed units does not in any way "force you to play a certain way." It's still up to you how to use your units and having them on the map at the start drastically cuts back the monotony of the beginning of a battle. It doesn't make sense to believe that pre-deployeds restrict strategies, either

      @@sammer1097
      It forces you to use a specific army composition, which in turn can heavily influence playstyle. For example, if the game gives you a bunch of air units it's basically telling you "Go fast, hit hard", while if it hands you a bunch of indirects you're basically being told to play the map defensively. Being given multiple battleships and zero air support tells you that you're going to have to fight near the coast until you can establish a beachhead, while being given an MD Tank and an Artillery and facing down multiple enemy MD tanks, with a single bridge between you and the enemy, means you're GOING to be fighting over a choke point.
      That being said, while it is restrictive, I don't necessarily believe that's a bad thing for the campaign, and here's why - in the campaign, you're given a specific scenario and you have to win within the constraints of that scenario, it's like you're fighting a specific battle in a larger conflict. Whereas the War Room and VS Mode it's more freeform and can be equated to fighting a larger, continuous conflict from start to finish.

And the CO'S were also horribly unbalanced which they also fixed in 2 by tweaking the values a bit. Of the AW1 CO's, Sonja was absolutely worthless. Even in fog, her specialty, she was garbage due to her low fighting power and bad luck. AI has come far since the old GBA days so they can definitely make it play more like a human player.

    Funny enough, I've grown to enjoy war room content, due to how other strategy games tend to play out in similar matters. Really, they're all exercises in learning how to take the middle area of the map and keeping it that way. The good news is the ai doesn't understand what middle ground is/won't try proper tactics to take it, and you can capitalize on that

    Pre-deployed leads to better game design, I think. Also, the fundamental difference I see between AW1 and AW2 campaigns is that AW1 levels are long series of micro-puzzles (unit positioning, planning turns, counting tiles, etc.), whereas AW2 levels involve solving one major puzzle (e.g., in the Max level, join-capping the base and building a battleship). Personally, I feel that makes AW1 much more challenging and rewarding, while AW2 is more amenable to pick-up-and-play. Both are great in their own right.

    To me, remakes of first games of different series serve 2 purposes:
    1: See if people are still interested it the franchise.
    2: Give people who never got to own the console the original was on the ability to play it on a console they'll likely own now.
    Sure, a new game is fine and all, but a remake is there to set the new groundwork. After all, there's a pretty big gap between the last game and the remake, so people might not remember it enough to make the new game profitable. I see them more as building blocks to the future for dormant game franchises.

    Considering both games are in the remake and they both have different CO Powers, I wonder how they’ll balance the CO Powers and the maps that with around said powers...
    Edit: oh. Right. They could also just have two different games to select in this package. Derp.

Which is quite sad and make the game less entertaining, not by a lot, but it's still something a bit sad that, we'll actually never see back until the remake ! Which is great

    Personally I'm not a fan of pre-deploy maps so I overall prefer Advance Wars 2 campaign and I do enjoy war room. That said, I totally agree that this level sucks, it's like it's designed to be as annoying as possible. Needlessly long distance to get to the enemy HQ, neutral base is annoying to capture and use because of the laser placement and the laser is also annoying to destroy because you're playing the CO who sucks with indirects. I feel like they were trying to making it like an interesting "puzzle" to solve but the solution is easy to figure out and implement it's just irritating to actually pull off.

  • @MasterKnightDH
    @MasterKnightDH 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I couldn't agree more. Too bad the Advance Wars subreddit will never understand.
    Orange Dawn HC is disconnected to say the least. It's practically a map that favors indirects and it happens to give the player Max. I think it's supposed to encourage the player to use navy, but that has the problem of how _AWFUL_ navy is in the Advance Wars games in general because of how ineffective it is for its cost. Yeah, OOPS.
    Also, WHY doesn't Two Week Test check for Rout condition? You'd think at that point the game would recognize the player to be convincingly defeated. Of course, I recall Game Boy Wars 1/2/Turbo declared a player who didn't have anything built on Day 2 to be defeated; where is THAT for the NC version of TWT NC?
    I do think Show Stopper is still worse. Fog of War idiocy where you don't have predeployed units and Adder happens to have predeployed Bombers in obnoxious locations to spite the player. At least with A Mirror Darkly, you get predeployed forces scattered along the map to make it easy to get Vision. But whatever the case, I personally am not too bothered by AW2's levels aside from Final Front NC being stupidly big for a timed map with its share of inane decisions that at least got toned down in HC.
    You do bring more insight to what is going on. Competitive makes maps start off with both sides having little to work with, wanting to work with the sandbox nature of the games' unit deployment. AW2 is simply appealing to this stance with what you're talking about. Still, the stance does have the issue that infantry flood becomes very much a real problem on these sorts of maps particularly with Anti-Air Tanks not being to 1HKO them on significant terrain unless they have an attack boost. Uh, yeah, Advance Wars, fix your unit imbalances first. Please.

    I thought exactely the same with AW 2 campaign. I can't put exactely what bothers me but I liked a lot more the campaign of the first game (despite the second one having more variability in playable characters). Maybe it's the stuff in the maps like cannons and walls which can be quite annoying, the difficulty looks more "artificial" instead of being a 1V1. Plus, these stuff also forces you to play maps a lot more slowly. I got bored after doing the firsts battles of Hard campaign

      It's fine if they copy paste as long as it is just the campaign (because it is, values are mostly the same, at some point they show a map of the campaign, with a Max tank attacking an Olaf tank, and the damage value was literally the same).
      They can do a lot of things to balance Multiplayer, War room, etc... Anything they choose, I just hope they choose anything instead of just doing nothing (No nerfed Sturm, Hachi and Kanbei, buffed Naval units, and many more changes they NEED to do).

    i am really hoping that, if the Reboot Camp for Advance Wars 1 & 2 is a success, they will also go and remake Dual Strike.
    sure it might have had the weakest story, a very underwhelming final boss and some questional balance choices, but i very much enjoy it nontheless!
    the new units, the com towers and all the new COs (excluding Koal and Jugger here, as both are literally just a reskin of Adder and Flak with minimal buffs to their abilities) are something i really like and would love to see getting remastered!
    though i would absolutely not be opposed to some balance changes.
    Dual Strikes are way too strong, the final missions are way too easy and Von Bolt is very underwhelming in terms of being a final boss.

    This definitely does feel like the kind of remake that 'tests the waters' to see if anyone still cares about the series any more, so I'll certainly be getting it. Bonus, I've never actually played the original two. The series could definitely use the addition of some new mechanic where the game recognizes when you've got an unstoppable production advantage. Maybe like a 'bribe' score where if you're able to reach a certain ridiculously high amount of money you can claim an instant-win if you want. Or just have the AI surrender when it's absolutely hopeless for them.

    Oddly enough even though I played HC in AW2 that initial Max mission largely eluded my memory, moreso just the general slog and difficulty of a lot of the levels. That pre-deployed one that Max got with the fog of war and the plot centered around POWs was pretty neat though.
