No, it's implied that he's supposed to be able to hear Ayre but he doesn't have a full connection. Either his augments were botched and he can't form Contact, or that's all you're able to hear until the Coral has actually reached out to you.

remember that we didn't hear her either until we got FLAVOR BLASTED by the Coral flooding from that PCA watchpoint.
Can you frick up the LCs and leave?
I only killed him in a mission replay to get all the data. Otherwise I headcanon that he managed to beat them and escape after 621 gets beamed up
He didn't see anything if he just makes it out 5 minutes later right? She wouldn't just blowup the entire facility just to ensure there are no witnesses. right?

Super weapons might be able to win individual battles, but they cannot win wars because they cannot be everywhere at once, and their numbers are limited. ACs are the tip of the spear, the MTs are the rest of the blade and the shaft.

iirc ACs aren't just crazy expensive but also require a pilot that can survive the expensive training and augmentation just to operate one, giving them a ridiculous level of skill and adaptability that's incredibly rare and valuable. I think AC pilots are more rare than they seem at first. I believe the entire concept is considered outdated even before the start of AC6, and corporations and governments are trying to phase it out. But it's hard to beat an ace AC pilot just by throwing money at the problem, they really are playing a whole different game and it allows the concept to continue to hang on

>a. Overwhelming Numbers >b. WHAT THE FRICK IS AN AC DOING HERE?!?!
Red just accepting his role was fricked. In my game he was standing in a wrecked MT fire all ablaze telling me >I know you saved me buuuuuuuut...
Him standing in that fire was so weird. Then he suicides by raven.
I remember that I was wandering around the level and by pure chance I met him. I rescued him but then he attacked me telling me that the cause of this whole mess was mine before I killed him, I think. In addition to everything that had happened before I got there I was the whole time wondering 'have I been making the wrong choices all this time? What the frick is going on?’ I was really bewildered
He was only an upper half in my game. He was torso on ground in fire looking up at me like the MTs broke his legs monster fashion. Then he stood up to fight me. For a moment I forgot we were guys in mecha instead of un armor. That crippled mech WAS Red in my mind.
The whole thing was surreal.

It's not fair.
ACs are whatever you make them, PCA tech is just better than what they had and don't require any extra work to reverse engineer and make compatible with ACs like the Arquebus' advanced development team did with that line of heavyweight parts
My own personal headcanon is that LC/HCs are basically what would later become the Normals in the AC4/FA universe. I know it's not actually that but I like to pretend it is
ACs are great for mercenaries because they're modular. LCs and HCs make more sense for an army because they're more cost effective and have more guys to field.
rusty is supposed to be a pilot thats on par with you canonically but you never actually see it because the stagger system kneecaps every other AC in the game that isnt you
Just about every AC pilot except Dolmayan sounds relatively young, despite having Canon ages. Sulla for instance is a gen 1 Aug, meaning he's probably about as old as Carla. He doesn't sound oleld either.
Their life spans must not be so bad.
coral frickery and space travel-tier tech mean people probably live a lot longer
still I can't picture carla without silver hair
same for walter
they're probably old as frick but look like they're in the 50-60 range
Walter uses a cane too, so there's some things technology just can't fix yet
That happens only when he fight with 621. It's Ayre chan who did it to help 621.
Is it exclusively against you? I feel like I remember something mentioning his surgery being mildly botched and him having troubles ever since.
Also Walter saying that all gen 4s can hear voices as a side effect suggests that maybe something about that augment procedure makes the subject more susceptible yo Coral contact
Judge from his words. Iguazu said " you did this aren't you? " It's more likely he have headache problem only when fight with 621 . And yes it possibly because he is gen4 too
>I feel like I remember something mentioning his surgery being mildly botched
I think it's actually that it isn't botched, but 621's is, as 621 gets real fricked by the augmentation and ends up as a meat potato working for Walter.
Lol no 621 was only shrink wrapped for travel to rubicon you're fine once they set you back up.
You gays need to stop trying to shove every protag into I'm damaged starter kit for self insertion when it doesnt apply.
Walter literally tells you he feels bad your augments fricked you up and tells you to take the bag and get them fixed in one of the endings anon. 621 is at the very least heavily stunted and impaired outside of an AC and it's acknowledged several times in game

We play an interrogation escape sequence 621 was never some cripple.
>I feel like I remember something mentioning his surgery being mildly botched and him having troubles ever since.
You are correct Iguana had a botched surgery and basically never had a contact situation like 621 did. Wether the Noises are Ayre when you fight is entirely up for speculation even with the last ALLMIND boss because it's never expanded upon and Arye doesn't mention in great detail at all
>Also Walter saying that all gen 4s can hear voices as a side effect suggests that maybe something about that augment procedure makes the subject more susceptible yo Coral contact
That is correct
Consider that all of ALLMIND's slots are gen 4 and before (explicitly stated to be coral-based augmentations) >Sulla is gen 1 >O'Keefe is gen 2 >621 is gen 4 >Iguazu is gen 4
So Allmind believes that only a coral-fried brain is capable of making contact with C-wave mutations.
Even without OP weapons the game is way too easy. The game invites you to combo the boss durjng its stagger window, but doesn't feel balanced for it, so you get staff like pilebunking Ayre for over half its healthbar. It's not like the game has leveling or you can spread points to stack 18 buffs after watching a Youtube build either, so the game balance is completely fricked regardless of you going out of your way. It's not enjoyable to be good because it feels like tha parameters are generally tuned around the players being sloppy, not being efficient at staggering and taking wrong loadouts all at the same time.
It's also a pretty baffling design choice considering they went out of their way to make Souls boss moveset for giant mechs
Vd's economy is unforgiving, plus you start with junk parts and I couldn't understand half of the mechanics.
I just learned recently that you could second stage in 5th gen.
Is it just me or as time goes on does it seem like guys that constantly whine about difficulty all the time just seem like giant homosexuals.

Not outbidding the offer for 621 in 5 missions where you frick up Balam
They trade the space fleet and spend way more money to deal with the worm, which is why they lose whether you support them or not.
Killing Red actually really hurt. He was so shell-shocked from everyone's deaths.
He even cries for (You) if you die helping him fight off the LCs.
Can you frick up the LCs and leave?

I feel the same albeit not as harshly about bloodborne.
I still hope they make something closer to sekiro again in time.
Ac6.5 will fix the stagger system, I trust them.
Assuming they actually have the plan to make the expansion like the old days.
I never saw stagger as cheap or unfair, but then again I wasn't using meta builds I looked up online. Never even touched dual zimmermans pre-nerf.

He was waiting to ambush debtors coming after him and mistook 621 for one of them, which proved to be a fatal mistake.
