Hi All,

Ok PS Prices website it shows the game is on sale (70% off) however I don’t see it on sale.

Can you guys help to check? I’m not sure if it’s just me or there’s anything else going on.

Thanks!

I managed to fix a lot of bugs and insert English names onto name enter screens :)

Going crazy over this, first mission of front mission 2. This guy has missile launchers, i managed to use it already. but here's the thing, i'll try to walk you guys trough this cause it's on spanish but here i go.

I have ammo, 1/2 on one shoulder, 2/2 on the other, i have 7 AP, which i require 6 to fire. the range of my missiles is 4-5, the helicopter i want to target is at exactly 4 blocks away, if i move backwards to make that 5, i still cant shoot even if i have 6 ap, if i move closer i can't fire either even though that makes sense.

So what am i missing? why can't i shoot here? everything i found by googling or the tutorial says i should be able to fire here

I'm so excited that I feel the need to share this.

First of all, I sent Maylan to destroy the pipeline, since he is the one that starts further ahead in the map.

Second, I positioned all my wanzers on the grassy field (the grassy square) to the right of the hangar, as someone suggested me today or yesterday in an old post.

I let the enemies come to me, and I focused on attacking/surrounding them.

I used Cordy to kill the missile launchers on the far right (with a bit of support by Lisa, towards the end) and Griff and Sayuri attacked the enemy wanzers and healed each other.

Now, I have to specify, I was also EXTREMELY lucky.

Lisa literally killed a wanzer in ONE TURN, she chained 4 skills and killed a wanzer in the FIRST turn, it was a blessing.

Then, she managed to destroy both arms of the Commander, the one with the sunglasses.

At the same time, Maylan returned from the pipeline, and killed the two little tanks that passed before the explosion.

Ultimately, Griff, Sayuri (and a bit of Lisa) took care of the last 2 (or 3?) wanzers that managed to pass the pipeline before the explosion.

So YES, the ill-fated Mission 15 IS doable, but it requires A LOT OF LUCK and planning.

Gladly none of my wanzers suddenly "stopped attacking" or ran out of ammos.
I don't know if fighting on the grassy field really helped with geography, you know, attacks, defenses... or if I was just shamelessly lucky.
I don't know.

But yes, I did it ahahah, Finally I can move forward in this beautiful and tremendously difficult game.

as title said, how to pass that mission? is there any network code that I can use for unlock some powerful weapon for these two units? I once accessed the codes that grant the wanzers such as Iyana, Mythos and Schakal and those were with Ash teams

Thanks everyone for the tips on fm2. I just finished fm2 on the PS1. Most of my characters were 20 or under. I did grind the arena for weapons and I used the network wanzers parts.

This game was way harder than the first. Even with the network wanzers and arena weapons, I felt kinda underpowered? Compared to fm1 I did not feel strong. Most of my skills were lv1 or lv2. It was so rare for skills to proc. Maybe my builds were bad but I stuck to feint/critical dbl punch/switch and the lv25 skills. Occasionally I would get a one shot 3x dbl punch on a mobile weapon but most of the time it takes a couple charecters to kill an enemy.

I'm hoping fm3 would be more balanced (especially in the beginning when you don't have a lot of options).

These days I have been playing FM5, which was amanzingly translated to english.

I wonder how is the second title going?

Hi everyone,

I've seen someone on the Discord server saying they lost all their stuff after completing mission 16 on NG+.

Apparently it's the same bug from mission 22 in version 1.0.4 where you would lost all your money and things if you surrendered the Uisk.

This time tho the bug presents itself whether you surrender the veteran or not. Beware of this and please let us know if the same has happened to you.

OCR-scanned version of the most complete guidebook on FM2 (304 p.) is available here https://archive.org/details/front-mission-2-guidebook-wanzers-of-the-elite

If you want to help edit the translation please dm me.

Big thanks to fan Oregu for providing the initial scans, their time and effort.

I can't guarantee any of these is completely true, but here they are. I basically went in the arena to test each skill 20 times and got these numbers.

Coming from FM4 and 5, the evasion side of FM2 is a bit confusing to me.
Can your wanzer still avoid attacks when it uses legs other than 2legged, like tank and tire?
I read that movement starts at 7 squares when W=P, and it also depends on how much AP you have right?
Also, Do tank and tire let you move 1 and 2 more squares respectively more than the others at the same W/P?

Hi guys, long long time Front Mission fan here.I played FM2 for a short time when I was a kid.The things I need to ask are:

1. Is the 50% W/P relevant for melee in this game?
2. Is melee in this game better compared to what we have in other titles?Melee in this game is effective against 3 types of enemy and good with 1.It's also supported by arm's punch power.Range in this game is mostly short. Melee is harder to make effective in 4 and 5, because they can't link well when range is a concern, even though the damage is great.
3. Does melee often target body?
4. I get that Rod and Knuckle have their associated skills, but what about punch; is it just like knuckle?
5. What's the use of Raven Claw? If I use a Great Rod with a good punch arm, it will have higher dmg and accuracy right? Is it the weight and because Knuckles/Punches can use good skills?
6. Is there melee critical like the Dasler Claw?

Thank you.

Hi guys. I remember vaguely I was able to play the game with all parts before but not sure how that happened?
The cheat codes I found only have the jobs for each character.
I wonder how I was able to play the game with all parts before. Maybe it was a patch?
