   BUY/RENT THIS FUN FUN FUN GAME...
   This game has several amazing aspects that put it soo high on being EPIC..
   ~1~ the weapon grind..It gives EVERY level purpose besides furthering the story etcetc…
   ~2~ different classes all play different & each alone is a full game..
   ~3~combat feels so satisfying. the way the bugs/enemies absorb bullets feels great.
   ~4~ weapon vaiety~ talk about weapon diversity.if weapons we're people then this game would be a SJW wet dream.....
   From Snipers which are uber powerful + range but penalty is slow rate of Fire/reload.
   from brainless rocket launchers to smart missles which holm in,,,to sshotguns to weird things like 100 marbles which become uber powerful close range like a super shotgun except you throw em like a grenade,,,to acid guns,,to mines of every kind...
   
   **so far ive only played Ranger & WIng Diver & the WD has a total different weapons system..
   Ive yet to encounter a same weaon as Ranger....
   
   Final Point= this games graphics are Xbox 360 but w/ a HD ocat of pain..
   The enemies look awesome but the layouts look cardboard..
   And every building is destructible is fun..
   
   I kick myself for ignoring this series all last generation..i always thought it was some lame Japanese corny game....don't sleep on this game...You will get instantly addicted..
   
   ~~talk about rpelay value...You get higher quality weapons on higher difficulty,,,and this scales on the higher the mission..
   So you play on hardest (inferno) on mission 17 only offers high grade wepans up till a certain tier,,,then say Inferno on mission level 87 will offer waaay higher tier weapons...
   *and the wepaons improve...something that wasn't there in EDF4.1...……..… Expand

   In a year where many major game companies seem to only care about $$$ more than quality, it's refreshing to get EDF 5 a game which actually improves on the EDF formula without adding ridiculous game mechanics, annoying insane grinds, or pandering to the game ruining streamers.
   
   Based on all of that, EDF is a solid 10. It's insanely fun to play, especially with friends, it uses the PS4 to great effect, and it stays true to it's formula. Thank you EDF for restoring my faith in gaming!

   What can I say this game is bonkers and highly enjoyable. It is a prequel to EDF 4.1 but made to be better in many ways.

   You have 4 classes of soldier to chose from and you must repel an alien invasion where you can fight anything from giant insects to ufos. There are hundreds of weapons and over 100 levels to play, you can pilot vehicles to create carnage and destroy many parts of the level. It does not have the best graphics but the frantic gameplay more than makes up for the game especially on the harder difficulties. I enjoying this game very much and will continue to support the devs and the franchise.
   
   +Awesome action and variety in gameplay.
   +Kill Giant ants and spiders! great to get over arachnophobia!
   +tanks, helicopters and mechs! what is not to like
   +Cheese and more cheesy voices but I love it
   +So many weapons to try
   + 4 player co -op is great
   +split screen is great too!
   
   -helicopters still fly too low and control is very bad.… Expand

It's the most hectic and enjoyable gaming experience a person can have, especially with friends. It never takes itself seriously and only endeavors to do one thing: throw literal hundreds of silly sci-fi monsters at you to blow up with an increasingly varied and ridiculous arsenal of weapons. It does this one thing quite well. The four classes are all distinct from one another and from what I've seen everybody has a different take on which is best. While not every type of weapon is a winner, most feel really great to fire. Additionally, many of the missions are situational meaning that you actually need to take the right weapons for the job at hand, which is more strategy than you'd expect from a game like this. And all the while you get to listen to the most gloriously cheesy dialogue from your fellow soldiers and radio broadcasts.
   
   The game isn't flawless though. The graphics aren't great, but that's a necessity due the sheer amount of chaos on screen at once, as well as all the models having collision detection from miles away. The game can get pretty repetitive too, especially if you're playing alone. The vehicles all control like poo. The menus are basic and ugly, especially the online lobby system. Sometimes the levels feel too spread out and it takes a long time to get to the next important spot. The performance is spotty with frame drops galore when the **** hits the fan. And you will definitely see some glitches like enemies stuck inside buildings and running in circles. But none of that is enough to distract from what a complete blast this is to play.… Expand

   WE ALL KNOW what to expect from EDF-5, if you haven't played before; you kill bugs. Big ones. 'Nuff said. So what I want to focus on are theWE ALL KNOW what to expect from EDF-5, if you haven't played before; you kill bugs. Big ones. 'Nuff said. So what I want to focus on are the changes this time around.
   
   * About 20 additional levels on the vanilla campaign
   * The ability to earn weapons/armor across all classes, regardless of what you play as
   * The ability to upgrade weapons and vehicles through extended use
   * New weapons, dialogue options, settings - but still no extra customization!!! (play Iron Rain for that)
   * Refined mechanics for class actions - EG the pull back and rotation camera for Air Raider during bomb drops
   * More dynamic level progression / more multi-tiered levels
   * More enemy, weapon, vehicle unlocks
   
   This is it more or less, besides this everything is a little more polished, a little smoother and just a tiny bit closer to what I suspect is the ideal EDF game. Here's the one issue with that - these are VERY minor changes, I can't really imagine an even FURTHER fine-tuned game making it as a stand-alone release.
   
   Much like the gripes emanating from many other long running franchise fans - D3 needs to find a way to quell the people looking for a meatier departure from the mainstay formula. Iron Rain was a failed attempt - not for being bad but for being too much the same. EDF-5 is definitely another tiny step forward, but its getting harder and harder to tell. 9/10… Expand
