Actually, I would have to disagree.  I am a huge Lost Planet fan, and I really enjoyed the game play, especially being a mobile game.

I too am a HUGE Lost Planet fan. I agree that the Mobile Version is a blast and tons of fun... However, the mobile team did not do their research before creating the game.

Here's a list of things incorrect in Lost Planet:Trag Zero that do not fit into the Lost Planet story:

Story Errors-

• In the instructions page, NEVEC is misspelled as "NEVAC." You are told that "you will encounter a variety of enemies including spider like Akrids, Monster Turtles and NEVAC..." Monster Turtles? That should be Dongos, the correct term for that species of Akrid. I personally would rephrase that as, "Along the way you will encounter the Trilid, Sepia, Dongo, Skalt, and Jellon of the vicious Akrid species. Battle your way through sniper teams of NEVEC forces. However, your main enemy in this world is the temperature." yada yada.

• Through out the story, Thermal Energy is constantly referred to as "Heat Energy," even so in the instruction page. I found it odd that Thermal Energy was not once mentioned properly in the game, when at the bottom it clearly says on the HUD, "T-ENG." The abbreviated form of Thermal Energy... Hmm...

• Alright, first guy you see is Ewan. Way off. His name is Dennis Isenberg, CEO of NEVEC. He seems completely unawares that he must run the company, because he's helping Gale fight them off! Way, way off. I thought at first Ewan could be an alias of his, because in the game you find out he has an alias of "Mr. Z." to conceal himself from NEVEC... But after really thinking about it, it just doesn't fit. He wouldn't need to hide from his own soldiers, since he has authority over them. They got his character really mixed up. I think they put Ivan Solotov (Yuri's father) and Dennis Isenberg together. Weird.

• Bandero sees Gale's white Hardballer in this game. But in Extreme Condition, he acts as if that's the first time he sees it. Boo.

• Speaking of VSs, Ewan (Dennis Isenberg) speaks of finding a mineral that is the power source of the VS. Wrong! T-ENG is the power that fuels the VSs, not some harvested mineral.

• Joe makes an appearance! Wait, how old is he? That's what I thought. The first time you see Joe in Extreme Condition, it's at least 30 years before Trag Zero. Now, Joe looks to be in his 30s, and he does not have a Harmonizer to delay the aging process... So he would have been like 3 years old. So that's way off.

• Not a big deal, but the Machine Gun is misspelled the only time it appears. It's typed as "machinegun" but should appear as it does in Extreme Condition as "Machine Gun."

• One of the Bosses is called the "Queen Spider." That should be Tencale, the proper name of that Akrid species. Also, there is only one Queen in Lost Planet, the Queen Giant Chryatis.


Graphic/Game Play Errors

• The VS does not use thermal energy to run. It should deplete your energy faster, but it does not.

• The Plasma Gun does not use thermal energy, which it is supposed to. It also has a reload time, which should not exist.

• The Shot Gun shoots once, then needs a reload. Wrong.

• The Last Stage has the VS EM laser, but instead of calling it the EM Laser, it's called some crazy missile thing. Also, that should be powered on Thermal Energy, but is not.

• The way the spawning pit of the Sepia looks is correct, which is called the Genessa. But the Trilid spawn out of a strange purple coral thing, when they should actually be spawning out of Genessa as well.


There are others, but are minute compared to these. All in all it's a fun game for a mobile edition, but it's just heavily flawed when it comes to the story behind Lost Planet.

Yeah! Great list. How can we find out which carrier supports what?

Thanks everyone, maybe we can get this floated soon.
