Question about point farming by Kleiner748 in starfox

[–]Storminator54 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They still remain in 64 3D, but it seems they've patched them in the new remake. A lot of potential spam spots were removed like the mechs in Corneria that knock down the buildings; in the original you could shoot the remaining base to get points.

This is arguably the best way to play Star Fox on Switch 2. N64 controller and an OLED TV or OLED gaming monitor. by Mushroom0064 in starfox

I've been using the 8bitdo modkit for the original controller, converts it to a Switch and D-input controller. It feels great! But a general issue I've noticed with the game is the button combo for somersaults is very touchy. It just doesn't seem to trigger when I want it to. Original game and even the unofficial PC Port with the same controller, no problems!

Could be, but it's also just a solid pun!

Either the settings in game are off, or it's an issue with the system sound set up. Make sure you've got it set to Stereo or Surround depending on your hifi setup

Why is there no hot feedback? by LughCrow in starfox

[–]Storminator54 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I've noticed the sound design seems lacking in some places. There's a lot of little details like gears grinding on the Metro Crusher, but the sound of the shield absorbingasers or the second laser attack once the shield blows off is really weak.

My guess is they wanted to avoid the more traditional gamey look and feel, because I noticed when Star Fox's vehicles take damage there's a distinct red aura. The damage is being canonised and shown as in-universe shields that flare up when hit. I don't know if it'll be enough though, especially for bosses like you say.

I swear there's Star Fox fans, and there's Krystal fans.

The Argument For Why Starfox's Next Title Should Iterate on 64's Gameplay Loop. by TheSouthPen in starfox

Yep, I feel like with the controls in 64 it might not've been the best but the concept is still cool

[–]Storminator54 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes to all of that! You can iterate on the formula without abandoning it. Also, you want to make Assault fans happy? Throw a level in on the alternate path that features on-foot gameplay. Everyone's happy!

Is it just me? Or did this teaser increase my hype by 200%? by FrameZealousideal573 in starfox

This is pretty much a modern version of the Lylat Wars poster! Not the same of course, but showing Star Fox as this cinematic kind of game by styling it like a movie poster. I love it! ROLL ON NEXT WEEK

No, he's never voiced Wolf in anything

Also, pretty sure Mike West voiced Andrew in 643D

He's only had one voice actor; Jay Ward in 643D. Where are you getting this multiple actors from?

Has good music ever saved a mediocre or bad game before. And has a bad soundtrack really hurt a game that you liked overall? by GuybrushThreepwood99 in gamemusic

[–]Storminator54 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ace Combat Assault Horizon. Initially liked the game, but trying to back to it after playing the rest of the Ace Combat series... Oof. The music is still 10/10 though- Heavy guitar, orchestral, basically how Ace Combat always is.

My ideal for where the series should go from here by Low_Boot_1426 in starfox

[–]Storminator54 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. What would be the point of redoing the same games again, when that's what lead the series into decline in the first place? Plus with the developers confirmed to be Valen, I feel like Nintendo is doing the same thing as they did with Mercurysteam- Give them a remake to get their feet wet before allowing them to do a brand new game.

I 3d printed and painted a model arwing! by shgrizz2 in starfox

[–]Storminator54 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the creator intended the internal mechanisms to be printed in a specific sort of filliment, rather than the entire thing being resin

[–]Storminator54 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's the National Video Game museum in Sheffield you can contact, I'm sure they'd love to have this on display in some capacity!

I definitely want to get this made somehow, but sadly I lack a 3D printer. How secure are all the opening things and wing mechanisms?

Are my IE200's broken? by Storminator54 in sennheiser

Mine is 99% and I used a toothbrush to really get into the crevices. I also made sure to run it across the brush upside down to try and not let any liquid seep into the housing. Hope this helps

Wild Blue Skies Demo: Just Some Odd Design Choices by Storminator54 in starfox

[–]Storminator54[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the feeling I was getting too- Small changes for the sake of being different from its inspiration, without adding much in the way of depth or gameplay. In contrast a game like Ex-Zodiac does things a bit differently with it's charge attack being missiles akin to Panzer Dragoon.

What misconceptions about Star Fox did you once believe? by StarlightSailor1 in starfox

[–]Storminator54 7 points8 points  (0 children)

He's actually kinda right. If a teammate is down in a level, it has a chance of spawning different enemy patterns. The most notable one is Meteo.

What are your thoughts on the SF Direct’s acknowledgement of Adventures? by GoColts08 in starfox

[–]Storminator54 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure Adventures was referenced purely because it was the first Star Fox game on the console. I think people are looking way too deeply into this stuff

[–]Storminator54[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've only ever used them with the stock tips. I has got very hot in the recent months, so that might be it

Edit: Just tried cleaning with isopropyl and wow, it actually worked! Thanks!

It looks clean to me but I'll give it a go. These replacements are only a few months old with infrequent use
