The original art style is just never gonna be dethroned in our lifetimes is it?

[@waynecuff3140]

Will never beat pixel art :)

[@swifty1969]

Also more graphic blood splatter and burning soldiers. @@dvdbox360

[@paullebleu7079]

It could be with a *little more work on the artistic part, this game looks like garbage, it looks like a lazy PS2 port on top of that ! I am disappointed if you wonder...

[@Needwagon4Speedwagon]

@@paullebleu7079 I'll never understand this fixation on PS2 graphics like it's an insult, if anything PS3 games are the ones that'll look like shit since they were going for realism. Metal Slug 3D for what it is, still looks good, or better than this garbage Oh also not to mention this doesn't look the slightest like PS2

[@Gadreth]

Good-ol Metal Slug just like how I remember it: Clipping, Badly compressed textures, invasive tutorials, grinding, interrupting the flow with cutscenes and conversations, inconsistent attacks, 5 second warnings, enemies dissapearing, slow clumsy death animations, puny insignificant slow moving projectyles Perfect! 10/10

[@nickperez915]

I share your pain brother, it’s sad when the only metal slug game we have to look forward to is metal slug tactics which isn’t even a side scrolling shooter

[@WhiteZelda]

Add to this: Probably Limited event items only Microtransactions

That is literally 90% of the things found in an average Metal Slug game.

[@jessepeterson6694]

Gotta say, between Samurai Shodown, Fatal Fury and now this SNK has certainly shown some love to their other classic non KOF games in the last 5 years. Now all we need is a new World Heroes game and we'll really be in business.

[@AntipaladinPedigri]

Inkinda get why they're doing away with arcade difficulty. I saw a documentary on the Castlevania series I think. There was a home console aimed at arcade players and the devs thought that arcade players will want a harder game, being more skilled from playing in arcades. But since the home console took away the aspect of coins for credit, the game was picked up by the wrong people who viscerally hated the difficulty level, finding it too hard. And so the game bombed. The devs later said they overestimated the target audience's skill. If SNK learned from it, they ran the risk that an arcade difficulty game for home consoles will simply bomb. Hence they did away with the one shot kills.

[@johnboog4437]

such a good franchise doesn't deserve to be disrespected like this. Looks like a mobile game.

[@reaperprince0]

To be honest, I miss the old pixelart without auto aim, this looks pretty silly for a console game

[@pou2611]

This is because is a port from mobile version, really sadly for a metal slug game

[@reaperprince0]

@@pou2611 i know that, that's why I said it's a silly gameplay for a console, I guess we'll never get to see Metal Slug 8 or something like that

[@pembawakabarburuk136]

​@@reaperprince0bro you can turn off the auto aim Lol

[@YoutubeApestaACACA]

​@@pembawakabarburuk136still looking like 💩 But thats why you guys love. The 💩. I have metal slug 3 in my ps4 . yes looks blurry and pixeled as hell. But its better than this 😂

[@VideoQuestEx]

"Metal Slug: Awakening" has been in development for a while now. It looks intense so far!

[@alexk9295]

I don't know. Looks kind of boring. The enemies aren't even really firing at you

[@VideoQuestEx]

@@alexk9295- The enemies do attack you. It's just that your character now has a health bar/meter, so it takes multiple hits to kill them, as opposed to just one hit. Also, I'm pretty sure difficulty adjustments can be made in the options menu, to make the game more challenging.

[@criticaledge7612]

looks like fun but i still like the ones from the arcade more, i occasionally jump in on pc and have a blast, im truly happy to see a new game in the franchise and will play it when i get a chance.

[@buster_wolfhopkins6801]

When do we get to play as Allen O'Neil?! He's always been my favorite boss in the MG series

[@ridhofahrudin.v1.18]

Metal slug awakening is good,but we also want metal slug 8 somehow

[@helltioeverygames]

Yeah also this is kinda lazy in animations,in some parts that were sopose to be explosions it didn´t happen the things just disapear,what the fuck?

[@furqanafzal9895]

the fact that metal slug 7 is one of my favorites after 5 and 3. it just shows that the old pixel art is still relevant.

[@dumbasscaptainhyperion1391]

i really love the classic ost of this game, i remember playing the metal slug series way back early in 90's...

[@fantastick00l11]

They really need to make 1 hit instant death a thing again, then this game would actually worth playing

[@R.SHIELD]

I actually attempted to do a no damage run. Apparently this 1 hit feature you're asking for requires to remove all the upgrade and gear system for it to work

[@MiguelWolffy_YT]

33:44 mantuvieron el soundtrack original de metal slug 5 😮. Que bueno que respeten algo de los juegos clásicos. :3

[@bigb5206]

I knew that sooner or later if I was patient that the video game gods would bless me with another Metal Slug video game!

[@cordavento]

This somehow gives the vibes of a N64 first time port to 3D

[@lolhyena1714]

I definitely play this but what snk needed was a metal slug third person shooter with Metal slug ambience and tropes. That arcades nowadays.

[@sargera1]

do they have walkthru on how to upgrade the cores and pairing of guns on each characters ?

[@gnat4543]

Need more graphon, explosion effects and details to be very scarable to see a mobile game on more powerful consoles and PCs.
