I think I'm thinking of the wrong part
If you are in operation 002 then you have had to use Glider cause Mission 001B forces you to use it at one point.
I couldn't tell if he meant operation 02 or 01B
but I assumed the latter as the glider sections are pretty self evident.
If there's a cannon in the background and got Green, you need to draw a bridge.
but I still might be confused.
I thought it was the building that introduced the UFO's at first too, but then I re-read and it say operation 2. Either way we will just wait for the screenshot :V
Yes, it's the building with the little UFOs you can fly, but I'm evidently not supposed to use them to fly to the next building because they forcibly crash when I try to use them for that, and they permanently go away after using them a few times. I've tried to build bridges several times.
I'm exclusively playing on the pad, so I don't know if I'm missing some cue that would normally be displayed on the big screen or vice versa.
Was P-Star prompting you to make the glider? Usually he'll throw up a hologram of whatever unite morph you need to use in those situations.
It was the glider, btw. Thanks for mentioning that--I probably wouldn't have figured it out myself.

I think this is where it may have been my fault for playing on the gamepad. I could tell he was doing something, but it was too small to make out and it looked green (iirc). I was playing in my bed at the time so I couldn't toss it up on the big screen to see.
Next question: I have 100 members, but I'm still running into civilians to recruit. Is there any point to recruiting them or should I just pass em by?
I think the game is starting to click.

Just wanted to say that this thread has led me to drop the cash needed to pick this up.
Thanks, GAF!

I kind of hate that.
Not that it's a revelation to figure out what to use but there is no need to tell you all the time.
We can figure it out.
Wow, really? I'm usually careful to avoid touching buttons during cutscenes, but maybe a shoulder button was pressing into my lap while I petted my cat or something, lol.The eyes in the cutscenes aren't a glitch, its a feature of holding down one of the shoulder buttons
The W101 cult following is pretty funny already, much more than with any Platinum game.
"Oh there's words "action" and "game" or "game of the" in the title, better go namedrop Wonderful 101"
Which is understandable, it has had niche hit written on it from day one. Haven't had the chance to try it yet, maybe someday (it took me like 5 years to play Viewtiful Joe goddammit!)
I shockingly don't like this game and I'm not sure why.
I've loved every platinum game this generation and even bothered to get all of the achievements in every single one of them. I adored Bayonetta, Vanquish and Metal Gear Rising, and really liked Anarchy Reigns.
This game though...I don't know. I've tried five times now to give it "another chance" because I feel like I should like it. The combat just feels like a slog to me, I don't know. I don't find the drawing mechanic very interesting and the combat feels very simple to me. (I've watched tutorial videos on YouTube too, I can replicate all of the stuff I've seen and still feel the same way) Yeah I can air juggle guys and change my weapon mid combo...but I don't know. I feel like I'm going through motions rather than playing interesting combat senarios and doing cool combos. I'll grant I'm about 4-5 hours in but I have most of the weapons at this point.
Glad you guys are enjoying it but it's probably my personal disappointment of the year. Absolutely shocked that I'm saying that, but here I am.
Huh? Are you surprised that people mention this game in action games related threads?
Anyway, better fix that when you can, the game deserves all the praise it gets. This thread particularly stresses the fact that the amount of content, secrets and depth very rarely seen in modern games.
I agree, though I've only played the demo so far. I just really don't like the controls at all. I want to like it, but it just doesn't feel as natural to play as something like Viewtiful Joe or even as what I played of Bayonetta 2 at E3. If it drops dramatically in price, I might give it another chance, but the demo did nothing to make me want it.

can you play this game with just the gamepad? Or is there special stuff where you need the tv and game screen?

The lip-synching is deliberately off. I think it's supposed to evoke old-school puppet shows like Thunderbirds, which this game reminds me of for some reason.I just finished the boxing lava fight with the two big robots and love how varied the game is. However, I can't stand the story with how it is so crudely pasted together over half-assed dialogue boxes. To make matters even worse, my version does not even lip-sync the dialogue well. But that aside, this game is definitely one of the most original games I have played in a long time with how much different content and designs are thrown in, which in the end is why I love playing Platinum games.

Game needs practice, a lot. But it's not clunky, uncomfortable or anything, it's just new and different.I'm going to have to borrow this game from the library at some point because my only experience with it has been the demo.
And after the demo, well, I felt weird. There's been so much positive praise of the game and many people seem to view it as the best thing on the WiiU. Yet after the demo I felt like I had played one of the worst games in a long time. I feel confused about that, and part of me thinks that maybe the demo is just a poor representation of the actual game.

I never heard anybody who played this claim he dislikes it. If only it released after the WiiU takes off (if ever...). It deserves a sequel more than anything else.
Use the right stick for ladders, etc.I got stuck right at the beginning where you are supposed to somehow line everyone up to make a bridge across a gap. I did it after about 15 minutes of trying, but I really don't know how it happened.
I started this game up the other day, played about 45 minutes and I had no clue what was going on or what the character was doing. I got stuck right at the beginning where you are supposed to somehow line everyone up to make a bridge across a gap. I did it after about 15 minutes of trying, but I really don't know how it happened. I eventually "finished" the first mission, still confused on what I was supposed to do in the game. At pretty much no point did I experience a "wow, this game is going to be great" moment. But maybe that'll come when I start playing more.
