"For a Summoner's journey is never over"

Greetings~! Summoners

A LOT has been going on in the Brave Frontier community lately hasn't it?

From the Last Cloudia Collab, the announcement of Brave Frontier Origins, What does this mean for Re:Coded along with more Brave Frontier Projects joining the recreation landscape!

There so much content to talk about!

We're gonna do an AMA on Reddit and be selecting and answering questions across all platforms on our livestream! Be sure to make to make your voice heard as we want to hear from you the Summoners!

Join us August 1st where will be going over a TON of new changes happening to the Re:Coded Project, Sneak Peeks at some of our latest developments of what's to come in Update 32 as well as our end of the year finale for Update 33, Website Updates, New Music Tracks, Localization Improvements, and something we know the community is super excited for, our first demo!? Launch Date?!?

As well players can learn what too expect in their first experience in Re:Coded!

The time draws near Summoners, are we ready to open the gates to Grand Gaia once more?

(AMA is setup for 48 hours before the Livestream so that Summoners may have their questioned answered live on stream, we will still reply to comments before, during, or after the AMA has concluded to make sure everyone has their question answered! Thank you all for your support!)

I miss this game so much

What is a QoL improvement or feature you hope makes it to the game?

More recent gatcha games have implemented pitty systems, BF Japan implemented a way to just outright buy the unit you wanted instead of the randomized gate pulls to avoid the gambling legality that Japan enforces, but I don’t really see that making it’s way to global.

A pitty shop that lets you pick a unit only from the current running banner after 50 failed pulls would be a huge improvement over BF1 and only having RNG luck.

Thought about this the other night and had to dig this back up

I wanted to highlight some things from the preview site that I've noticed to better get an idea of what to expect. Of course we're getting the Alim AMA later this month and the next reveal at the beginning of September, but I still think it'd be neat to dissect what we have as it comes out.

1. The Art Style - From what I've seen, the style is a copy-paste of Brave Frontier 2's. Something I'm sure most of everyone's been able to point out, but I feel like it can give us a bit of what to expect both content-wise and on the game's launch. That aside, I do like it. You could tell that the style was transforming into that of BF2's already when the Omni era was coming out, which are some of my favorite designs overall. Remaking the game from the bottom up with this style I think has a lot of potential to really make it feel more modern, without deviating too much from what originally made it great.
2. Gameplay - This shows everyone's 3* forms, which makes me wonder if they'll go the route of BF2 and outright skip the 2* forms (I hope they don't). From what I've seen in BF2, that can also mean that SBB could be available at 5* rather than needing to wait until 6*. The trailer actually doesn't show any interaction with the gauge itself, Vargas is just able to use his BB despite it only being halfway filled and it remains halfway filled after use.
3. Units - A good handful of fan-favorites like Darvanshel, Kikuri, Zelnite, Elza, and more were in BF2's base roster, while as we know were a bit further into the original game from the launch roster. This, to me at least, might be telling of who's in the game off the bat and which batches to potentially expect. They say that BFO "returns to the series' roots" which could mean lots of things, such as the story being the same but with a lot of other units being released earlier. My hope is that the game mirrors the original's release timeline, that way we can ease into top choices as they release rather than rushing for them off the bat.
4. Skills - Not something I'm familiar with, but from what I've seen this seems to derive from BF2. All I can tell is that it's basically an extra ability that can be used similar to a burst, but with limited use. There's definitely others who know more than me about it out here, who I'm hoping will correct me or help elaborate.
5. The Middle Gauge (XBB) - Another thing from BF2, which is essentially the same thing as Dual BB from Global. The gauge doesn't fill up in the teaser site, but the fact that it's not completely filled tells that it's something to be filled. That said, it's in the same spot that the XBB gauge was in BF2, so this likely means we'll be getting it (or something similar to it) in BFO.
6. SP - Under everyone's portraits are the letters SP with 88/99 on them, which I'm going to assume means something like Skill Points. Might be something from Final Fantasy Brave Exvius? I never played it but I know Alim helped develop it, so they're likely taking liberties from there as well. If I had to guess, they're directly tied to the skills that each unit may have, probably fills up over the course of each turn, and are used as the cost to use said skills. Again, I'm hoping someone else who knows more might be able to step in and correct me/elaborate.

With that all said, I don't think we can expect a 1 for 1 remake of the original Brave Frontier anymore (if we even were), but rather a "Brave Frontier Plus" with all the "best" features of BF, BF2, and potentially FFBE. I'm sure a bunch of people have already come to that conclusion, but again, this post is to help better understand just what that might end up being. Let me know what you think and feel free to give your thoughts!

I didn’t know what I was doing with the bosses nor was I familiar with any meta , I just brute forced my way with the units I have till something happens hahah

Let's make things clear, THERE IS NO DOWNLOAD ... YET!!!

This is a project I started on my own after stubling upon a hidden gem on Github ... big thx to arves100 for the amazing work did in the past ... and here we are starting from that "little" we can find online like a nearly full dump of the assets from a 2.19.x client version and something we can call a PoC, the dummy local server by arves100, yeah very "little" stuff no ?!

This project of mine aims to bring back Grand Gaia's splendor, a project that is free, has no-ads, no microtransaction shits and a lot of invested time and brain cells for you all... hopefully!

You can find a preview here: https://youtu.be/5drI4ZQqmv0

The original Android APK was used for testing after applying a few patches here and there!

Yall posting your old screenshots made me feel so nostalgic that I had to scour my phone for what I had.

What is known, ive not completely kept up. Last thing I want is to get hyped, and end up with some Puzzle game or something.

Found some more old screenshots some in Japanese as I would play on both servers (I would get impatient and want to get new units and Jap exclusive units)

Found some random screenshots recommended to me by Google thought I'd share these!

I first saw the game through an ad while playing Pocket Planes and immediately downloaded it because it looked really cool. I chose Vargas as my starter because he looked the coolest in said ad, and to my luck he ended up being Anima.

My first rare summon was a Guardian Mega, who I evolved at every opportunity but unfortunately didn't see him to his 7*.

I remember my first friend on the game who also chose Vargas, who quit soon after 6*s released.

I stood up until 3AM on a school night farming St. Lamia for a Fire Idol to finally evolve my Vargas to 5*. I was dead tired that morning but it was worth it to finally get the unit I had my eyes on from the start.

Magress was the second of the Six Heroes I got, and through a random honor summon rather than trying to farm him through Oboro's event. He was a Lord who I eventually evolved to 7* to help me breeze through the other Fallen Gods' trials.

Being a dumb teenager at the time, I charged $400 to my phone bill because Google Play gave the option to back then. I just kept buying gems like "free money!" without realizing what was actually being charged.

Rowgen was the final piece of the puzzle for me to finally beat Maxwell's trial since I didn't have any other infinite BBer.

Waking up and scanning the huge spreadsheet to see that I made it onto Global's raid beta tester list was such an amazing feeling, and being able to claim Owen right away on the actual release made me feel even cooler.

This one's a minor one, but I was also chosen to test out Global's live chat support. They'd enter the chat and act like the character they were, and when I first tried it I got paired with Xenon. It was especially funny to have to explain that I accidentally fused my actual Xenon away and was thusly scolded for using him as fusion material (in good fun, of course). I ended up getting him back in the end, thank you agent Xenon.

Finally, I remember being wished happy birthday by the official Facebook page after showing off that I got the gem daily reward on it.

Unfortunately I couldn't stay hooked on for long because of school, but still loosely followed the game and checked in from time to time. This game and its community are the reasons I'm pursuing my goals and aspirations today, and I couldn't be any more excited that they're bringing it back. I've been looking through all the content I've missed and reliving the stuff I've played through via YouTube. I'm looking forward to not only taking this journey again, but actually being able to see it through to the end this time!

THE GOAT USHI IS BACK IN BUSINESS

I miss this game

Definitely miss this game

Too bad I don't have any really old photos as my old phone got fried. Still, these really take me back. Proud to be f2p til the very end.

Seeing this makes me miss the UI. Don't recall any instance where QoLs were really needed or maybe that's nostalgia talking.

With all of the hype around Brave Frontier origin and the Last Cloudia collab I’ve recently tried my best to find old screenshots and this is all I’ve been able to find. I’m glad I found them but wish I had more atleast of my Home Screen. These were just a few I found that I had sent to my friend that played with me. These were from 2017.

I see people posting their screenshot of BF, and I wanna do the same, but sadly all of the devices I ever had that I played BF on were destroyed in some manner and I forgot to take screenshots of it on my phone before it shut down 😭😭

Like many I jumped in for the Collab event and was lucky enough to pull everything here from the free tickets during the event. Missed the ark though with the heroes. How did everyone else fair?
