MLU only has to be played once since the routes are almost identical. Muv-Luv is a story of human relationships in a world where humanity is pushed to the brink. Humanity has been driven from the Eurasian continent, and now faces extermination. Sure, faking the lasers into shooting the asses of Ruitares would work hilariously for 19 days, but that's a one trick pony, if they're going balls deep, more people are going to get blasted. Optional: Play the other heroines routes of Muv-Luv Extra. On a parallel Earth, humanity has fought a decades-long war against the extraterrestrial BETA, using giant robots called TSFs. It is therefore highly recommended to kill Hammerhead-class BETA on sight. It moves by jumping around at high speed, effectively making it a Grappler-class that can jump at short distances, this increased mobility can prove fatal to a TSF unit. Now, if Lasers weren't somewhat lethal to other BETA, they'd be firing without consequence or thought to Friendly Fire, which'd remove that one exploitable weakness they have (and remove any human thought of victory. A new mutant type of BETA, with several hammer-like hands which can hit and strike heavily and freely. This procures some element of danger to them: Obviously, at this point, considering other BETA strains (such as the Fort-class, as seen at Sadogashima) protect Laser-class, keeping the lasers active in the face of human assault, is a thing for BETA. However, Lux and Magnus NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, hit another BETA with a laser.

The question is, just what would you get out of blasting BETA with a laser?įirst and foremost: Lasers -are- effective: Yes, BETA are space monsters, and can tank Solar Radiation on the surface of the moon like a boss. It's also not a question of 'Humans haet lasers?!' Ok, yes, they're expensive to field which may pose a logistics problem, but they're faster, more reliable and just better than a lot of conventional weapons or point defense systems, making their use a serious consideration. There exists (although, not discussed and very little is known about) a TSF that would be a canidate for turning the BETA's greatest weapon on them.

(And yes, it can be pointed at ground targets with lethal efficency, although using it like the BETA use Lux to blast unfriendly things in the air is a smarter idea currently.) And then hell, if things are mirroring RL with TSFs to planes. Ok, first off: Laser Weapons exist IRL (this thing is pretty much the RL version of Laser-class BETA lux, BTW) so, it's not like they're totally out of the question. But at 70 m/s arrow speed, 5-6 feet away, and the arrow had moved say 2. There's probably data on the speed of an arrow at that given point. How would a Laser-weapon perform against BETA? Acceleration shouldn't matter for this particular feat. Ok, this is something that just has been on my mind:
