Flit get’s his second upgrade from the AGE system. It’s emphasis is on armor and limb power at the expense of looking really damn slow and has no ranged weapons to speak of. Has the AGE system delivered another miracle of “adaptive technology” or is it a dud with a shiny red coat?
The armored UEs are a straight forward upgrade to the standard ones. Heavy armor with many of the same weapons, they can even deflect the new DOTS rifle! So what does the AGE system come up with? Basically, a freaking copy of their design! Gundam Titus is just as heavily armored and has crushing limb power which I supposed would be used to smash the tougher armor but in practice is highly impractical.
The UE here is just knocked down… yeah that’s it. It was a one shot kill, it didn’t cripple the suit, it was just knocked down. I will note that it does have “beam spikes” that can come out of should and knee joints and a has a retarded “beam lariat” (seriously Japan, pro wrestling is fake) but doesn’t use them when he has superior positions (which he gets by pure luck). Instead he charges in and tries to fight them head on. Did I mention that the Titus isn’t even stronger than the armored UE’s?
So in all, unlike the DOTS, the Titus armor doesn’t give the gundam a clear superior edge. Hell if UE’s were remotely smart (and not made for a children’s show), they just fly high enough and snipe the shit out of the armored buffoon. That was this shows pixie dust, which wouldn’t have been so bad if they didn’t show how STUPID the AGE system is or that Flit is still a rookie pilot.
Why?
Seriously, Wolf show’s up in his brand new suit and not only destroys his armored UE opponent, he completely make it look like child’s play! (if the child was named Kira Yamato).
So Wolf, without all the fancy tech, figures out the right tech to completely over come the new UE model in a vastly superior (and probably cost efficient) way than the AGE System. Oh and lets not forget it didn’t take him all that much longer to get this custom suit than it took the AGE system to figure out this retarded upgrade.
That being said, my Merchant of Death theory was off but not totally off. Apparently there’s some guy out there that has super tech (or at least the plans for them) that was supply the retards on the Faradain colony. What’s his new suit and how does it play out?
But I’ll leave you with some screen shots that had my inner Dai Guard fan super happy.
