    Man I missed this game on mobile, it was heavily addictive, and when it got removed, I was disappointed. Now that it has made a comeback I will be getting it, probably today. And no pay to win or pay to play microtransactions is the best part.

      I played it a bit and the one thing i remember was the powercreep, especially on the side of some temporary event units, which meant that if you were unlucky and missed out on the new op unit because you started playing too late you'd be at a massive disadvantage and would be matched against hundred of players who would just stomp you. I've heard most of the units in reloaded have been rebalanced to be at least a bit more viable so hopefully that also means the broken stuff gets nerfed a bit (though I'm not even sure if there's any plans to bring back PVP so it might not matter)

      @@hekirb3382 I hope they add more units in and more new content, as even though the game just came out it would be to know that it will continue to get support post launch.
      Also yes I know exactly what you mean. Made fighting against anyone past what I like to call the bots tier as there was just way too many low level people with no skill and all of a sudden, bam, they hit you with a road block and you could never be able to keep up with getting the beat rewards. And I hated the currency just to be able to play the game as knowing I don’t have to worry about that in reloaded is just a huge bonus.

      @@hekirb3382 Could also be because of the Gacha mechanic they had on how you got units in MS: Attack. But I think it was mainly because of the LARGE power creep in the game. You were more times or not stuck with units from when it first started or else.

      @hekirb3382 Yeah! Powercreep is original MSA's biggest major issue I'd ever encountered when I started to play special ops for first time, and I got overwhelmed by high-level AI enemies (thank God United Front event gave me latest meta units to help me beat other latest special ops events back then). Powercreep is also made its microtransaction feel P2W.
      Thank God, SNK rebalanced all units in MSA Reloaded to became as usable as they should be unlike the original.

    If you wanna sort by faction do this:
    Menu > Search > Filter > Affiliate then turn on/off faction you dont want in the filter group
    If you're confuse how much cost the unit do these:
    Menu > Sort > AP > L/R to swap in order vice versa
    I do these all the time to build my deck in online battle, this tip will help you clearing the stages with ease
    BTW welcome to grind hell :D

    Hey Wander, that anime girl is Alice. She's an Unit/Character created when Metal Slug Attack (OG) was still up. At the time when she was made she was busted as was every other unit that was added anime or not. Abigail and the other 'Anime' girls that you may not recognized are from the original Metal Slug Attack. Other Units (even reskinned amped up versions) are bound to pop up given this is a new Metal Slug Attack.

    • @domasbaliulis23

      most of the units have been revamped to compensate for them being old units that are outclassed by the new ones as time went on in MSA's lifespan.... nova now has a healing abillity and immune to stuns, and if stunned, causes her to uh... move a good inch forward from the original position... and the attacks have been improved as well... but im too lazy to explain that.... other examples are ghost shiee, sandmarine, jupiter king, etc etc etc... but why you need the reskinned ones though? seasonal and the other non-special (and by non-special, i mean the likes of subjugation tactics and liberty ones, and other ones with fancy titles like that) variants of the original units are good enough... and of course, the whole list of non-character units.

    I suspect this was pointed out to you already but: 90% of the stuff you unlocked there and thought it was a bit weird - are actually all characters, enemies and bosses from Metal Slug games 1-7, there are a few characters made specifically for this game, but literally just a few.

    Mind you there is roughtly 305 units in this version (but not ALL of them (wich is roughtly 150-200 extra units from the original Metal Slug Attack and idk if they ll add them later or not))
    And its not pay to win like last version , but play to win and when you max evolved a unit you ll not gona get copies (and thats for all units) so you good and the only thing you need its time for the grind (max account level is lv60 so if your fresher dont worry in like 1 (maybe 2 weeks) and you can be lv60 and your units max leveled too))
    Cant wait after some months to see more and more competition and interesting builds

  • @aereonexapprentice7205

    As an avid Metal Slug fan, glad you are enjoying this sidegrade of the franchise. As a Metal Slug Defense (same auto-battler that got removed) and Metal Slug Attack former player, i was initially dreading on this game lmao. Anything you see so far was chicken scratch compared to the former gacha game. The game was centered around PvP or extremely grindy events, characters were bi-monthly powercrept and made irrelevant by new releases of another characters, equipment systems were like second job to determine the minmaxxing aspect for INDIVIDUAL units with RNG of course, Seasonal and Special units were made busted to reward players and whales who got sucked into the FOMO structure, oh and did i mention this was a gacha game, meaning every single thing revolves around getting the currency to roll for a character, meaning you grind your sanity away and save up for weeks or months to not get curbstomped by the new content or just swipe your credit card.
    Happy to see that if you strip away those crap, you get an interesting and fun concept of a Metal Slug auto-battler. Legit i forgot that timing the skills of individual units were actually influential in this video because in the former game, it does not matter at all, what matters is stats being bigger or skills being overpowered or just have units that dodge and render the game a waiting simulator.

    I had a similar experience with Genshin Impact, where it was basically Breath of the Wild without that shitty weapon break BS, and thus great gameplay. Then you have to deal with the Gatcha aspect and suddenly the game felt like shit.
