![]() The times when Lost Planet 3 really screams Lost Planet are when the mech combat and the on-foot combat work in tandem. Sprinting was also a little hard to control. Shots landed consistently but Jim would always find a way to hop into cover behind an object I wasn’t trying to duck behind. The ground-based third-person shooting is less cumbersome than the mech battles, but still fairly clumsy. Obviously there was a way to fight them, but when you are surrounded getting bombarded by ranged Akrid attacks, it became very difficult to figure out where attacks were coming from. The first person view was troublesome when Jim was being swarmed by enemies in his non-combat mech. The third person view while in a mech has also been replaced by a first person view. They were sent there to harvest minerals and T-Energy, but it really takes away from what makes Lost Planet’s mech battles special. I understand why they did it these were the first people on this planet. ![]() Instead Lost Planet 3 replaces the mech weapons with a drill and a grapple arm. Gone are the militarized mechs, gone are the third-person mech battles. One of Lost Planet’s biggest draws are the fast paced mech fights. The story of Lost Planet 3 is told by an older Jim Peyton as he recounts his arrival on E.D.N III and the conspiracy centered around NEVEC. Instead, the NEVEC Corporation has sent a small number of colonists to the planet to harvest minerals and T-Energy to send back to Earth.įor those who have played the first two games in the series, players will recognize NEVEC as the group in control of E.D.N III. Lost Planet 3 takes place 50 years before the original during a time when there weren’t a large number of people living on the icy planet of E.D.N III.
