TemjinZero Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 ^topic. Basically... I'm worried that the fewer buttons and one less stick = fail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harakiri Tiger Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 I love the portable versions. I really like the controls so far, too. They've made gameplay on Adhoc Party very, very entertaining for me. I've never had problems with the PSP controls, especially since you can always customize them and it's very rare that someone will use every button on the controller with every design. I use pretty much every button for my SLp staple, but it doesn't bother me at all. I've won 27 of the 29 matches I've played on Adhoc with it, too. I only ever got 6 games in with 3p, though. No one was ever online for it. =\ Anyway, if you somehow have some horrible issue having to stretch your left thumb occasionally, just make an AC that doesn't use OB/Inside/Extensions. Btw, fewer physical buttons doesn't mean fewer buttons. All the controls for your old AC games from SL and down are there with nothing lost. The only thing you lose is the dual analog ability from NX-LR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pendragon Posted February 18, 2010 Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 I personally loved Formula Front, and since the portable 3, SL and LR are improvements, I say get them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TemjinZero Posted February 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 Well, I got AC3P since I was too lame to wait for a PSN sale, and it's pretty fun. It's kinda annoying sometimes when you have to aim at shit (the only button changes I made were strafe right and left to stick, and turn to shoulders.), but I'll live. I have no idea what the good parts are though. XD There's no AC2 bs where one of the cheaper boosters is the better one... is there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCC Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 Just use 002, MARE, or FLEET. There aren't any boost power bugs; that's specific to AC2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grim Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 I'm kind of wondering how the smaller buttons and cramped layout isn't making it harder for you guys to play the portable versions. Personally I have a very difficult time managing OB while keeping the target in my sights, and timing my shots. Care to share some button layouts? Or do you all use the default one?

Harakiri Tiger Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 Oh shit, good point. My layout is OB-centric, though. Niji Style DPad Left: Turn LeftDPad Right: Turn RightDPad Up: Run ForwardDPad Down: Run Backward Analog Left: Left WeaponAnalog Right: Look UpAnalog Up: Look DownAnalog Down: Extension L: Strafe LeftR: Strafe Right X: BoostO: OverBoostTriangle: Change WeaponSquare: Right WeaponThere are a few problems with this setup, though. If you're not using OB, it's not as useful. Also, you can't drop your left weapon or your extensions. That means you gotta kinda build around the controls, but they allow for amazing mobility. Getting used to the look up and look down takes a bit of time, but no one is mobile enough on Adhoc Party to really be unhandleable. Especially with the large boost in mobility. Most seem to think my control scheme is crazy, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NiX Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 The layout for vertical tracking is nuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCC Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 (edited) I like running pure bladers using that scheme. My scheme is: Dpad - Walk/turnL1/R1 - StrafeX - BoostO - Change weapon▲ - Left Weapon□ - Right weaponNub Left - ExtensionNub Up - OBNub Right - Aim UpNub Down - Aim Down This prevents me from dropping extensions. =( Edited February 26, 2010 by LCC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
