@@powerstones7722 they ruined Attack by adding way too many waifus and anime-like characters, Metal Slug Defense is better since it doesn't have anything like that, and it's not exactly pay to win unlike attack
The game is the most pointless thing i saw in all my life. Everyone, and i mean everyone, likes metal slug for a) it's dificulty and b) it's artwork. This game let's you a) autolock and b) is in 3D (although i have to admit is a very good looking one). Maybe if the game wasn't in mobile i would buy it, but is mobile
They're just milking the franchise at this point. Such a shame, i've played every single Metal Slug games on my PS2 and PSP. Lot of fun memories playing it after school.
@@archam123 i think the only thing he does is play that tower defense game from the same franchise in which players basically has one rule on themselves: use overpowered and low ap units.
That may be true, but im Just gonna point out that it's very common with old and famous franchises. Maybe it's the majority of them that are milked, not the minority. The new generations are absolutely less competent, less skilled, less smart, and mainly less creative than those devs from the 90s and early 00s, so milking is a natural outcome.
@@lapsedilationdrive3943 I'd hardly call the old sprites dated in any way. I've seen many pixel art games including Shantae and the Pirate's Curse, Celeste, Enter the Gungeon and Monolith but the only game I can think of that rivals the old Metal Slug games' pixel art is Sonic Mania
Metal slug, like many other side scrolling games and some fighting games like KoF is a clear example of a game that couldn't re imagine itself post arcade era.
Solid argument, everything was perfect until the franchise started switching hands, starting from Metal Slug 4 (4 is still acceptable to a point, but it went downwards from then on).
When I first played this with my dad watching and hearing the word "heavey machine gun" for the first time, i asked my dad "what's a heavy machine gun?", those were the days...
I played MS2 when I was just 7. That was my first video game I've ever played. Still remember the first time playing when i gave up at mission 2 boss. Came back to it and beat the game 2 days later.
Code J's art style doesn't quite look right for the series. I get that the sprite work from back in the day is time consuming as hell, but... Ew. Cool to see a new Metal Slug being developed at least, art style gripe aside.
@quit The Internet It was still 3D, but looks as much good as the old 2D sprite when done right, the real problem is that 3D model required different kind of out lining comparing to 2D sprite.
Aaah I remember buying the metal slug anthology for my PS2 and my brother and I would complete the whole anthology during Sunday afternoons with a bottle of mountain dew so much fun it was ...
Never played Metal Slug, but this reminds me of Commando. Y'know, that one Miniclip flash game. Which is a good thing, btw. I loved the Commando games.
I'm gonna be mostly disappointed by the monetization of the new game, from the trailer, I'm expecting to have the weapons that you pick on a mission be unlockable and upgradable (Gun Shop hehe : 6:28), the stats of the player like hp will be upgradable (you don't die with 1 hit, its obvious when having your hp bar right above the player + its upgradable because they have a lot of space in the top left corner UI for that), the same goes for the vehicles, i suppose you will encounter ones just like in old games but in this one you can Buy them (see the camel button icon ? 6:08 and the tank in the Shop ? you need to pause here 6:26), maybe upgrade them so you can spawn them whenever you want (given the ability couldown is down, check the tank button 6:10), you even got abilities that you pick (you are not limited to only one, here you have 2 abilities other than the jump, melee attack, bomb and tank 5:43, and here you got only one 5:54) with all of that I'm assuming you can even change the type of bomb you can use, how much charges you got and the type of melee attack (lol even the close range attack have a couldown 6:22) and of course with all of that I'm assuming that the game will be easy with like the 1st 3 levels and will hit hard the more you go deeper (hard enough to make you buy stuff), the game looks great and all but what can you expect from a big company like Tencent behind this game, i really hope they surprise me and prove me wrong.
I was so excited with the new trailer but then, I saw the Tencent and all my hopes died. I imagine grenades, and weapons (Rocket launcher,shotgun, etc) will be consumables and had to be purchased maybe even the extra lives and the vehicles.

Metal slug advanced is the hardest I ever played in my entire life, but the other metal slug games is ez because when you die you respawn 😂
That's because Metal Slug was originally on an arcade machine
That code j is just stunningly beautiful. Amazing graphics

Metal slug had the best pixel art I've ever seen in a game, and the designs were gorgeous
