Shoot Button on Star Fox Command

[Tingrio]

Up...it's the simplest button for me.

Any button on the control pad works for me.

[Chupperson Weird]

Up is the button I most frequently use.

I realize this isn't really on topic, but since this is a Star Fox Command thread and I don't really feel this question deserves its own topic, and since I can't access the chatroom currently: Does this game play anything like Star Fox Assault for the Gamecube (or, for that matter, Star Fox 64)? I had my doubts when I heard about Command because, well, after loving Star Fox 64 so much and wishing for a new one, I'm scared Command will be a cheap spinoff and not really anything like the Star Fox I'm used to. I played a demo of Assault at a store recently and I liked it a lot, so how's Command shaping up?

Well, you're always flying, so it's generally not like the majority of Adventure and Assault.

You never fly continuously down a path, either, though, so it's not like the majority of the original or 64.

You're always in all-range mode and you chose where to fly on a map with your characters and strategically defend the Great Fox and take over enemy bases. It's fun and I like it better than either GCN Star Fox. You can get 9 endings and play online (I've found the best time to get full games is 5:00AM, because it recently came out in Australia).

Hm. All Range Mode was fun, but in bits. I really liked the fly-down-a-path aspect, and I looked at a gameplay video on www.gamespot.com. Command doesn't appear to be the type of game I'm looking for... but heck, maybe I'll get it anyway and still like it. Thanks LD

If you ever played Terminal Velocity, it looks and feels a lot like that.

[bobman37]

Mmm.... Nope. I played Assault again today, and decided I really only like the flying parts. Phooey.
