I think they made Adder too hammy tho, he always seemed more stoic and sinister, and would end his lines with a chuckle, not a laughing mad psycho. But agreed on the rest.
I feel like Adder could've been more snake-like. give him some more pronounced canines, make his hair give the impression of a cobra's hood, something like that.
love how they leaned into Jess being both butch as fuck and absolutely shredded, just tossing and catching a cannon shell as big as her own torso (with ONE ARM no less). love her
A part of me kinda hopes that the Reboot Camp does well enough to warrant something new down the line. I wouldn't mind personally if Dual Strike was skipped over for a new sequel... but I would desperately want Dual Strike Jess. The difference between Jess in AW 2 and DS is staggering.

Turning the corny Advance Wars 1 power jingle into leitmotif incorporating each CO's theme was genius. I kinda wish the AW2 power activation jingle prior to this matched the faction of the CO though.

Game needed full voice acting (and some better VA's for some) and an actual online mode.. but still it's an amazing game and i'm absolutely enjoying it.
@@faresfares-ultra They really should have just put the originals on the Switch Online's Gameboy Advance emulator, and just made a new one... That's literally the same amount of online support we got here. >.>
Love the fact that a lot of them have different fonts and animations for even the regular and super co powers, yes some like drake have the same but it’s still a cool detail for most of them
He having a low cost co power that gives you more movement can catch the opponents off guard so often that it makes it into a really good skill. I like him more now for the laught he does. Lmao
I have to say, as much as I enjoy and really appreciate the effort and extra miles we got from the VA's; I'm not sure if it's my ears but I feel as though there's a lack of "energy" behind these voices when I hear some of these CO Power quotes, like some of them are literally just reading the title of the CO Power off a script, rather then powerful voice behind it. For some of the CO's anyway, not all of them.
I feel the same way. I think just reciting the name of the CO power was a mistake. They probably should have had the voice actors say some kind of catch phrase or battle cry that they could get more energy behind.
cheers to Drake, the only one of them that can render a proper salute. Colin was fairly good, considering he's a kid, but he needs to get that thumb in line.
Eagle and Hawke sound *_way_* older than what they look like, and Lash's comes off as weirdly dry, but everyone else sounds pretty much fine otherwise -- with my favorites being Olaf, Jess, Flak, Adder (obviously) and Sturm. Animations-wise, the OG's highlights weren't much to look at to begin with anyway, but WayForward being WayForward obviously means they wouldn't remake the graphics just decently enough regardless -- as such, even if in retrospect it's not that surprising, the waifu/husbando levels from all the COs are absolutely off the charts here; expect the wars between fans to be the bloodiest things you've seen yet.
The only one I didn't like is STURM. He looks WAY 2 emotional. I feel him more like an unstoppable object that can kill you with his gaze as he looks at you as if you are nothing more than a simple worm.
Basically it's a reverse Sturm if played in Advance Wars 2 style. He has no Super Co Power but his normal power works the same as it does in advance wars 1 (units gain 10% to Attack and Defense), compared to Andy's hyper repair that functions under advance wars 2 rules (units gain 10% but only for defense).
2:50 "Now this may feel a little incomfortable but try to relax" I love hawk. what have they done to my dad?! why is he not wearing a shirt underneath his coat??
So basically the only later cos that are missing are Sasha, that French guy, and rocker kid whos name i allways forget along with whats her names little sister who would call missile strikes all Over the screen
Animation is amazing, but they could have handled the voicelines better. They feel squished into the last second, and they could have timed it better for the animation (instead of limply sticking it to the very end). It also feels more like they're reading off a script instead of calling out super moves. Of course none of these criticisms apply to Adder
The guy at 1:22 looks like if DMC Vergil got his pilot license Edit: The guy at 2:58 looks like if Pilot Vergil fought in every war with air support, what is this game?!
I like how Adder yells his powers early to have time for maniacal cackling
Nah, he's just not late and says his power when it appears on screen, anyone could maniacal cackling if they were on time.
Sturm now poses like he's gonna physically throw that meteor lmao
mans got the infinity gauntlet
Considering the last mission in Advance wars 1, I wouldnt put it past that armored mofo
I really love how Olaf is doing his power while sitting on the chair he had in the OG AW1. Nice attention to detail.

I instantly recognized Patrick Seitz's voice as Olaf, I really went wait doesn't this sound like Dark Cacao?...
Kinda funny how SungWon voiced two white characters, but he got into a right rage over white actors voicing asian characters.
The other VAs can take a piece from Adder. He's feeling it.
It's also the best timed with the animation. Most of them wait for the words to show up before calling them out.
Dude I thought the same thing! I literally said out loud Damn adders voice actor went hard

No idea why I like Adder's the best. I always thought he kinda sucked in the original.
Adder is super solid in aw2 sure its nkt the strongest but a really fast ability to increase all movement is no joke

@@veetijaakkola1200 well, in AWBW he's low tier. Basically people who don't want a busted CO play him
The dub studio took one look at adder and knew exactly what the mission was in terms of voice. They nailed it. He’s like the crab dude from beyblade 😂
Super cheap base co power also means he gets that 10/10 upgrade pretty much whenever he wants too
Sensei jumping from a helo is the best. Such a great CO
I also love the detail of Sensei's lines being more compressed. Really makes it feel like he's talking through a comms headset.

Easy: Wayforward are pretty good with ladies' sprites
I just realized that if this does well, Wayforward could get contracted to do another sequel.
Me encanta el amor que le dieron a Advance Wars despues de tantos años
Wayforward se lució con este juego
Was expecting Hawke to say full metal alchemist
I love how they did my boi Adder. Dude also had one of the best power themes only topped by Sensei. But I mean it's Sensei, you can't top that theme.
I don't know, Drake's theme goes pretty hard with that electric guitar.
Didn't know Marilyn Manson and John Cena joined Black Hole.

Wqit so clone andy dosnt have hyper upgrade? Or is hyper repair have both of andys co power abilitues, if so thats op
He only has Hyper Upgrade, because Clone Andy technically only appears in AW1 (whereas AW1 doesn't have Super CO powers yet).
Basically it's a reverse Sturm if played in Advance Wars 2 style. He has no Super Co Power but his normal power works the same as it does in advance wars 1 (units gain 10% to Attack and Defense), compared to Andy's hyper repair that functions under advance wars 2 rules (units gain 10% but only for defense).
gotta say Sturm's voice surprised me, he already looks the part just give him the vader modulation, or a space marine.
If they had a DLC, they'll probably add Dual Strike COs, Days of Ruin COs, New units, CO Exclusive Units, and also Hero units.
And if I may be so bold, FE themed events and COs?
Or just other Nintendo characters as COs. Sturm would probably like Bowser and Ganondorf.
