In light of EDF 6's disastrous launch with the third party account linking fiasco. Just get this one instead. It goes on sale pretty often and almost all EDF games are basically the same. You just get more of the braindead fun I subscribe to. So if this is your starting point in the series I'd really recommend it. The tutorial isn't long and actually forces you to participate in the first missions. Instead of... whatever they thought the forced unskippable tutorial in EDF 6 would do for players. Besides I find the voice acting in this game to be superior to the sixth release.

The creator of this game must be a genius! -Proceeds to wipe my own team with a poorly timed Spritefall while chanting "EDF! EDF!" This game is pure chaos, and I love it . Epic battles explained with a nonsensical plot, always leaving the city flatened, or covered in purple gooey blood, or both. It's made with a lot of care, though. Classes and missions are pretty balanced (I'm sure Inferno difficulty is meant to be unfair, and it's doable with high-level equipment and a proper plan). The gameplay in the series never felt better , now Wing Divers can dash, Rangers have access to Epsilon tanks, Fencers can equip two passive upgrades, and Air Raiders have non-clunky mechs and a clean area-of-effect UI to properly aim all their aerial assault weapons. It's pure fun, go grab it! Thanks for the gift, Moge!

Why EDF is better then Helldivers: No 3rd Party account needed Unique classes Campaign/Storyline fun nonsense More/Bigger Guns Infinite Ammo Singing NPCs Level variety (underground levels are best) Bosses Vehicles/Giant Fuck you Mechs More then 2 games No invasive anti-cheat No bugs (that I've ever experienced) Upgradable weapons Color customization Larger enemy variety Harder difficulties that are actually harder not just more enemies=hard
