yes
Why do you want to play 6 if you think the previous games suck? That's like licking a cow's ass, hating it, but deciding you'll lick the calf's ass to see if it tastes different.
it will be totally different, those games were niche for a reason, from would never dump this amount resource on a hard to get game.
people just want to play the older games to not be seem like secondaries.
>it will be totally different
It really won't, and you're being sucked into the doomer shit where they claim the game is entirely detached because muh lock-on. It's still massively focusing on part management and loadouts.
Part management and loadouts are the fun part that everyone can get into. What's more divisive is the PS1 Jap jank that the dedicated fans fell in love with but is generally disliked by most who approach it. If you boil down AC, it's all one big minigame of putting the other robot in a square and pressing shoot, but complicated somewhat by the fact that you have to dodge incoming shots. All the garage stuff just modifies your ability to play that minigame. From moved away from this with AC6 to pursue something more like their recent titles in terms of combat. If you like AC but dislike Souls then perhaps this isn't for you but if you like them both it seems like this could be a match made in heaven.
>the gameplay of the game is a minigame, playing barbie dressup is the actual game
Memes aside yes a big part of AC is doing shit in your garage and you can easily spend 50% or more of your time there. The game is huge on its simulator elements.
As somebody who's genuinely grown up playing the whole Armored Core series, it's totally fine to not like the old ones, even if you like 6. The series is very old, and the controls in particular are extremely dated. There used to be elitism back in the day about the newer controls of 4 and 5 being "too easy", but really Fromsoft just hadn't made an accessible control scheme yet.
Not to disagree entirely, but FromSoft isn't exactly a studio that's known for chasing trends, or putting all their money into only the safe option. There's a reason the souls series got popular in the first place: it was different and unique, didn't hold your hand
>but FromSoft isn't exactly a studio that's known for chasing trends
Indeed, From is known for making the same game fifteen times and only switching until it gets old.
You aren't the ones chasing the trend if you're the one who made it in the first place
>people just want to play the older games to not be seem like secondaries
So this episode is going to be similar to that time when zoomers tried playing the original RE games and got unapologetically filtered en mass?
AC6 would be licking your girlfriends ass but unfortunately, you do not have one
How else will they be able to take part in the Current Thing™?
>Why do you want to play Elden Ring if you think King's Field sucks
Bad comparison you should have said Demon's Souls.
>food analogy
It is because OP is a current thing FOTM homosexual like the rest of his worthless generation that is addicted to dopamine and playing his favorite ecelebs games as they come out
Because this time they actually cooked the ass and seasoned it instead of just making you lick raw live bovine behind.
Some series improve with each release anon. I wouldn't touch the older Dynastry Warriors for the life of me, but the modern ones I keep up with.
>BUT ANON, THE NEW GAMES HAVE NO "SOVL"
That's true, but the games in the AC series play pretty differently from each other. Gen 1-3 play different from Nexus which plays different from Gen 4, which plays different from Gen 5. If you're going to play anything prior to Nexus you might as well start from Gen 1 since those all play similarly.
To be fair anon dynasty warriors 3 4 5 are probably the only good ones, and I've finished all of them with every character, except for 1
>Some series improve with each release anon
Anon this is Fromsoft.
good morning sir
>people start shitting on FFXVI
>Suddenly an anti-Armored Core campaign starts on Ganker
lmao
moronic movie game XVI has nothing going for it,it amazes me how people still buy those shit games after lighting was introduced.
FF died years ago and some had slight hope in XVI, but that got ruined. Mainly some gay keeps making FFXVI shill threads.
Why did your hope in 16 get ruined?
Doompost about FFXVI in June / July
Doompost about AC6 August / September
Doompost about Starfield October / November / December
TotK WILL win goty and you can't stop it.
>TotK WILL win goty and you can't stop it.
Nah, game journalists seem to be underwhelmed by TotK, and picking "GotY" is their thing.
It doesn't matter since 6 will not be anything like 1. Play "Armored Core For Answer" if you want something more accessible.
6 seems most similar to 4 and for answer, so if you will like those, you might like 6 as wekl
the first ps1 game is great though. I played it back then but never played the rest of the series as I was poorgay who only got 1 or 2 games a year. https://youtu.be/g54DVpnxhqI
No because Armored Souls is not an Armored Core game.
What's Armored Souls? Is that a new game you made up?
I would say play 2 or 3 and 4a or verdict day
>do i have to pretend to like good games?
no you're on Ganker, your fellow redditans will back you up
I played through the PS1 trilogy recently and they're not bad at all once your get used to the camera controls.
Yeah from what i've heard talking to people, the camera controls filtered them. It isn't that bad once you get used to it.
Nah they all suck.
AC1 is way, way better than ACV.
It's also way, way better than Dark Soul, or Demon Souls, or Dark Soul 3.
i played ac1 and its not that much better except for mission structure and playtime
But you don't need to like it
Just try AC4/FA on rpcs3, they run almost perfect on toasters now.
I still think the PS1 games are good. Just remap the controls.
Just enjoy 6 when it releases.
I really like silent line and last raven but 6 is just simply going to be a better game all around, the best in the series even.
4/fa is way too fast i find it a chore to play in general and verdict day is so apallingly boring and ugly i might just sell my copy at a markup to some souls baby.
And ac fans have shown themselves to be 10x more insufferable than souls babies ever were.
I'll take a million "fromsoftware needs an easy mode" opinions over any of the garbage an ac fan has to say at this point.
I just dont care, i like good games and from makes good games.
>And ac fans have shown themselves to be 10x more insufferable than souls babies
All 3 of them including me? And how so?
Still yeah I agree with everything otherwise.
ACFA has the most fun missions for me but things fall apart when fighting some ACs (cough White Glint cough)
6 should safely be the best one yet in any cases.
>All 3 of them including me? And how so?
the sudden surge of "AC fans" that have suddenly come out of the woodwork to say AC6 is souls and therefore le bad. you've got to be moronic or acting obtuse to not have noticed it, since it's not only going on in Ganker but everywhere else too that this game is talked about, go see any recent AC6 youtube video and you'll see the creator pin a comment about how "this isn't souls guys, please shut the frick up"
>a loud portion of the fanbase
The shazam discord trannies never heard about AC before.
>All 3 of them including me? And how so?
Because a loud portion of the fanbase is being even more obnoxious than when Soulsbabs heard about Ash Summons in Elden Ring
>HURR DURR CASUALIZED FRICKING RUINED MADE FOR SECONDARIES
You have 1 guy thinking it’s not AC enough for every 10 unironically thinking it’s gonna be mechasouls.
>Because they kinda suck
Yeah they do, and they all pretty much play the same. From were known as the kings of 6/10 games back in the day.
>they all pretty much play the same.
no
I've heard so much about these "Soulsdrones" but all I see are seething From haters like you. I feel like Ganker is just making up a group again to justify their inane shitposting.
No, but if you dont like them, statistically speaking, you wont like 6
ACgays be like
>YOOOOOOOOO THIS GAMEPLAY FIRE! CUHRAAAAYZEEEEEEH
>This homosexual is at it again implying anybody told him the gameplay was "crazy"
The gameplay is boring shit
I repeat, samehomosexual, nobody told you the gameplay was "crazy." That's a delusion you cooked up yourself, especially for early game.
I don't care if it's not CUHRAAAAYZE
It's as fun as watching paint dry
By the way, since I made the shitpost yesterday I've beaten AC 3 and 4.
While 3 was crazy slow, at least it had a proper garage unlike 4.
WHAT WERE THEY THINKING WITH 4?
I like it but I'm not an adhd addled zoomer who needs everything to be super fast and have flashing lights so...
>me shooting workers because another company wanted their salaries
kino
Post a webm of you beating an AC fight doing this
Yes. That looks like decent fun for an early game poopmech
never had a PSOne but that looks fun
it's a pee ass two game
Black person at least change the filename next time
Why should I bother
I dunno take some pride in your shitposting or something
Bet you head that quite a bit as a child

>first mission
>default mech
yaaaaaaaaaaawn, tell me you're a soulsslopper without telling me you're a soulsslopper
Yes. Just like you have to pretend you've always used Ganker since 2004 when posting here.
Reminder not to respond to doomerposts, it's just shazamtrannies back at it again.
I hate doomposters. I wish death upon doomposters. Rape doomposters in a back alley. Curbstomp doomposters. Shit in doomposter's mouths. Roundhouse kick doomposters. Fire a 12 gauge in the mouth of doomposters. Drive over the parents of doomposters as they attend their worthless doomposter kid's funeral.
Also another strawpoll for those saying "w-well I need more options".
https://strawpoll.com/polls/xVg7jlz5Mnr
>not liking it because of the customization
I just hate that Tank AC absolutely SUCK at the final level. Frick vertical climb
You’re the kind of person that makes me wish AC6 had invasions.
Well it has certain souls elements in its design now and Armored Core is a good setting for PvP action so never say never
Checkpoints make it a lot more viable as an idea too. Along with the set healing. Very easy to balance some AC showing up in certain sections potentially and getting an insane bonus from killing them and not give the opposing ac any healing available. You’d likely win the DPS race just from having any healing whatsoever. And if you die, well back to the last checkpoint then.
I say this because Raven ambushes were kino even back with Wildcat in AC1 and having online pvp potential on repeat playthroughs on certain missions and sections of those would be cool. And if you don’t want, well then just offline like you would do anyway
FRICK HER RIGHT IN THE PUSSY
Made me laugh
No, op, you don't.
And here's why:
>AC6 Isn't designed like gen 1-3 AC games
>AC6 takes inspiration from AC4
>AC4 was when that homosexual Miyazaki came in and ruined everything
>AC5 was a shit game made by the b-team while they pumped out Souls slop for the better part of a decade and a half
>they're using their Souls Slop money to make AC faster, prettier, and more actiony and souls like to cater to people just like (you)
You don't have to pretend to like Armored Core here, you just need to be a fromsoft souls slop guzzling fan boy and you'll always get what you deserve. Just be happy when you get Armored Souls in 2 months time and you can later go on this board and into your social circles and claim that you were always an AC fan, like how all of the souls gays claim to have always loved fromsoft and ever grace and shit like king's field and lost kingdoms despite only playing souls and never playing any of it.
Keep living your lie and only play games forced through the hype beast pipeline, and don't forget to preorder your pod and bugs while you're at it too.
Fricking die in a fire, Discord troony.
nah, just like monster hunter, another great action series will be labotimized for the newer, dumber generation of pube haircut zoomers like yourself.
>everything and everyone I don't agree with is a troony waaaaah
You can feel free to screencap this for when the game comes out and ends up being a melee focused AC game. Every build will be melee oriented after it comes out, and you freshly graduated homosexuals will find the Moonlight and go "ZOMG DARK SOULS ZANZIBAAAAARTOOOOO REFERENCUUUUUUU" without ever playing kingsfield, you fricking moron.
agreed, it was the beginning of the end, allowing a game with such a shitty design at it's core be made, because the autists from hired were obsessed with trying to "perfect" it.
>You can feel free to screencap this for when the game comes out and ends up being a melee focused AC game
>Blades can only be equipped to the left arm
>Melee focused
you didn't watch the prerelease footage. Everything about how the AC moves, to how the boost kick and combos work means you will 100 percent only have extensions and other weapons as window dressing, but then again, I don't know what I was thinking, expecting you to actually use critical thinking skills to analyze something you clearly did not watch.
>Your three melee weapons? Pure dressing, it's melee focused
My God fricking shut up troon. Go 51% yourself so I don't need to smell the shit wafting out of your mouth.
three *ranged weapons
Whatever
>I-I'm not a troon
So why are you posting the exact same shit they do across /m/ and Ganker? Almost like... you've got an axe wound, hm.
>So why are you posting the exact same shit they do across /m/ and Ganker? Almost like... you've got an axe wound, hm.
>why are you posting opinions shared with both the video games and mecha board
Probably because people on /m/ actually enjoy mecha shit and actually played the games, you knuckle dragging moron. There is a 90% chance you didn't even know what armored core was until the reveal trailer, you child.
>Probably because people on /m/ actually enjoy mecha shit and actually played the games
You're being called a homosexual for spamming your shit on /m/ as well. We're a bit more autistic, but we caught on when you copy/pasted several of your posts.
Not spamming anything anywhere you waste of oxygen. Everyone who disagrees with you is not the same person. Take your meds.
I'M SORRY...GENOBEE...
I am sorry Genobee. You should have been in a better game. Cared more about him than Joshua from AC4. And Joshua gets a protag to take up his name. Genobee just gets Mollycoddle pissing on it
Mollycoddle even stole the emblem as well and just flipped it in mspaint like a b***h.
No wonder Zinaida wanted him dead.
>nah, just like monster hunter, another great action series will be labotimized for the newer, dumber generation of pube haircut zoomers like yourself.
I've been playing AC since PS1 (Jampack demo disc was my first exposure) and MH since MH1 on the PSP and played it hardcore on PSP. MHW is easily the best the series has been. Not because it's casualized, but because its MonHun at its core and polished to the nines. I think that's what AC6 will be and I welcome it. I especially love how they've taken mechanics and mech designs from many different AC generations. Seems like an easier to control and slower 4 answer with more refined level design. Can't wait to see some actual AC vs AC combat.
Kys moron
We're all having a little fun here, but Evergrace actually sucks.
AC4 was the best generation though and I want to see that story continued. (AC5 was the absolute worst gen)
Ac4 was ass, finished the campaign in like 3 hours, completely forgettable. I vaguely remember some city you fly around real fast like a sonic the hedgehog level, something with a canyon and then the final boss was in some circular Zzzzz room. I honestly couldn't tell you want happened in the story if I tried. Spent like an hour with the arena mode thing, that was about it, completely ran out of content in like a day.
The mechanics were fine but too fast paced imo, kind of kills the meticulous heavy mecha autism when you're flying around on rollerskates and just chugged a gallon of soda. I prefer more realistic slower mech warrior or early ac kind of stuff where you actually have to manage your resources, plan and engagements or get rekt. None of this inconsequential adhd lazor beam lightshow rave party crap.
>you actually have to manage your resources, plan and engagements or get rekt
will never understand the desire to present AC as if it has any actually engaging gameplay or any challenge to overcome or be beaten by lmao
moronic boomer "ac fans" will literally site mechanics with no context for whether they're even implemented meaningfully (they're not lmao, that's why they only mention the mechanics and not the actual gameplay lmao) and act like their game was anything but mediocre garbage.
I'm so thankful that no matter how much you wish it, the narrow vision AC you've conjured up in your mind that can only exist in your mind will never be real and you will never be able to have a new and fulfilling "AC" experience. Can't wait to play and enjoy AC6 while you cry that the game isn't intellectually stimulating enough becuz muh big robot not le tank :,( while everyone knows you probably just got filtered by more demanding gameplay that actually expects you to play the game rather than tinkering like a moron in a shut in virtual garage to overcompensate for your lack of skill 🙁
I'm one of these garage boomers and will beat your little enby quadroon pussy in at any reflex/skill based game of your choice.
That's a lot of projecting. AC4 was easy piss. Never said it was hard, or didn't enjoy it, I just prefer autism management. Think it was one of the few games I nearly 100% all the achievements back on the old egg box days. Again cleared all that in a day or so and promptly forgot about it. Just felt like an empty vaporware of a game and could had been more, like it was a demo instead of a real game.
my point wasn't about AC4 being piss easy, the entire garbage franchise is piss easy hence "le game...has mechanics... like managing resources" is fricking meaningless if it doesn't actually do anything and you can get by just playing the game with your brain turned off.
my point was to disparage you for implying AC6 will be shit because it's vaguely like AC4 more than the classic games. moron. imagine unironically using the word "projection" and being wrong, what a convenient fricking cope word lmfao
I like the old games and am excited for the new one, you think you're gatekeeping but you're just acting like a homosexual on the internet.
>I'm excited to consume and you aren't so you're bad and wrong
thank christ, someone with taste
This is nothing like ZoE you black ape gorilla Black person, if it was then I'd at least be willing to give it a shot if it didn't have the Armored Core name slapped onto it for quick money
nah, you 100 percent did.
>looks like an updated Zone of the Enders
I'm not a violent person but 'd like to smash this moron's head in with a shovel.
I mean ZoE clearly inspired AC4 and even in the recent AC6 dev interviews they once again basically confirmed it
inspiration has not ever meant that the game is an updated version of the thing that inspired them. if this was the case basically the entire japanese gaming industry would be releasing DQ3 clones
didn't read
They are pretty good games.
They also take nearly no time at all to set up on an emulator.
>RGB customization of individual parts
>emblem editor with a multitude of options
>all of this in fricking 1997
I feel guilty that this franchise went under my radar even though I had a PS1 and PS2 growing up
>I don't like this series but I HAVE to play the new one
So tired of these threads.
Soulsgays have no choice. They must play so they can participate in the memes
>They must play so they can participate in the memes
this has never been true for even one singular second on here
>No co-op for me so that I can delegate all mental work to my RPG nerd friend
They are pretty cool but if you seriously try to play all of them you will hate them. I love the ps1 games. They just have a vibe that I love.
One of my dumbest cases of video games FOMO is that I wish I could have played these games against other people with the system link cable. I've met dudes ten years older than me that talk about it like it was a lot of fun.
I've tried a little bit of this game and didn't really have too much trouble wrapping my head around the controls, but I got bored around ten missions in and dropped it.
Not at all! The new AC has already been shown to have most modern sensibilities you've come to expect from your products, like the industry standard free camera and controls that allow you to instantly go in whatever direction you want without having to deal with ugly things like momentum
The camera lock has literally nothing to do with momentum.
Old ACs play exactly the same as 6 with a M&K which is why they changed the camera to begin with, they factor PC players who will use M&K, everyone with a brain already caught onto this ages ago but you people are still pretending FROM is trying to cater to Soulsgays when they're just adapting to an unavoidable impasse related to hardware the previous games weren't even considering.
Lmao this cope is just too much
We already know since months that M&K completely break the old games and make turn speed irrelevant, the only one coping here is you
https://twitter.com/garungorp/status/1631910679635546112
You don't need to use your mouse you know. A keyboard has more than enough buttons.
How come you're so eager to talk about shit you clearly know nothing about?
Oh wait, this is Ganker and I'm in a thread about an upcoming FROM game, my mistake.
You don't need to use a keyboard either actually. You can use controllers of all kinds on a PC. I use an old ps3 controller when I emulate games.
Frick that looks so good, and it only took one small change, makes you realize how far ahead the game was compared to the hardware.
Makes the instant turn on ac6 make more sense too, since it's the first time the franchise comes to pc, you just know mnk players would rape controller ones if they couldn't turn as fast as them, I'm glad they went this router rather than force everyone on slow turns.
>playing the game through unintended means of control breaks it
I'm now beginning to see why you cretins need everything to look and play the same. You're no different from an animal that eats his chow everyday. I can only imagine what you cretinous homosexuals look like irl
You are the saddest individual i have ever laid eyes on. If you died literally no one would notice because of how much of a flaming homosexual you are.
The thing is you can't port a game on PC and not consider K&M, it's impossible, and we know for a fact that even if they did keep the exact same control layout things would be even worse because everyone who didn't use K&M would be at a massive disadvantage because as shown, K&M completely break the games, hence the change in control to put everyone on the same playing field regardless of what peripherals they're using.
They didn't even have a choice outside arbitrarily refusing to put the game on PC which would be suicide, the sooner you accept this the better.
didn't (unmodded)nioh prevent you from using the mouse at all? only keyboard or controller
You are utterly moronic.
wait until they add some secret tech to catch mouse user off guard like precision break
report in if you bought the big dick edition
If you don't record yourself doing a turbo cringe unboxing like that Cyberpunk one you are a fake and a fraud
If I play one Armored Core game before this new game comes out, which one should I play?
master of arena
4A, Nexus
The first
AC1, AC3 or For Answer. If you’re based though Silent Line or Last Raven
(me)
So it looks like the consensus might be that For Answer and the original game are what I should play, but since I'm profoundly and uncompromisingly based I might end up checking out some of the PS2 releases later on.
4>3>1>2>>>>5
>no one likes AC 2 or AA
Good
Is there anything wrong with those two games? They look the same as others
AC2 is fine. The big issues I remember were framerate drops. From also didn't make use of the dual analog despite it being a PS2 launch game hut that was just their autism and they didn't change that until 5 games later.
AA is just a massive mission pack with basically no story and more grievously, no arena. If you wanted a more concrete goal to work towards it wasn't here.
Most people like 2nd gen due to nostalgia. Beyond that though the people who go back and play through gen 1 usually realizes sooner or later how much Gen 2 didn’t improve on or just got way slower to overly accommodate Overboost. I’m pretty sure if I wasn’t a dumb kid at that time and was super in gen 1, I’d probably be fuming over AC2
Meant to reply to this
This popped on my feed, listen to the bg music.
If it weren't for the Souls games, armored core would have died along with fromsoft. I think the hardcore armored core fans should say thank you to souls slaves like myself. I am going to be buying AC6 and enjoying the frick out of it.
>you should be grateful that the niche game you enjoy is being turned into a soulslike
That's like saying I should be happy that The Little Mermaid was remade with Ariel as a Black person.
Noooo how dare you to enjoy quick turning in my totaly realistic mecha game.
>skip the latest souls game
>play the next game which is the real passion project
based fromsoft never letting me down
good games
rate my fight against pollux
Always interesting to see the perspective of enemies in games
lol
i did but i couldn't turn to see him using the default controls and he flanked me
I'd say nice try, but I'm not sure you tried at all.
I hope they follow the tradition of not showing a single human face. The mechas and company symbols are the stars of the show
why are dark souls fans so butt hurt over armored core fans criticizing an armored core game?
post yfw AC6 sells more than all the previous ones combined and all the "muh turning speed" gays get btfo.
Post-Souls From fanboyism will insure it will sell well. What I'm curious is what things will look like after people have time to digest the game.
That's easy as frick to predict. They will probably abandon the game after playing it for a few hours, watch some souls lore videos of the game and then talk about how they are huge fans of armored core. Then elden ring dlc will come out and they will all completely forget about armored core.
The sales figures aren't going to impact my opinion, and nobody is expecting it to sell poorly in the first place.
Even the people seething at the game expect it to sell big anon it's the newest from soft release, its not as big a name as rockstar for example but it will sell well regardless.
What people don't get is that some mechanics from the past armored core games did not age well at fricking all. Even if there is hard lock on in AC6 t hats still better than the shit we had in previous titles. It felt clumsy and ass. What I am most excited about in AC6 is customization though. Hopefully the meta doesn't get to restrictive. I remember one AC title was basically light mech and dual rifles. CRINGE.
Yo I friggin love that one AC that was on the ps2. I never gave a damn that my created robo is terrible and takes me 2 hours to beat one level
no just play zoe instead
>4 is supposed to be the easiest one
>still getting filtered and failing or going negative in most missions
Why do people hate Soulslike mechanics anyway? Seems like a weird thing to hate considering that "Souls" spawned a whole genre on its own and is widely regarded as what put FromSoft on the map and kept them afloat. Not to mention many other companies utilizing similar mechanics. I feel like the same mother frickers complaining are the ones who think Touhou shit is engaging.
>Why do people hate Soulslike mechanics anyway?
I want an Armored Core game.
I want a zhinaida equivalent to call me names and push my machinery in
A very small portion of the AC fanbase are still really, really fricking salty that the AC franchise that FromSoft had spent like 17 years on died off for the foreseeable future because Souls games were actually making money. AC was barely pulling 300,000 units globally per game by the time we hit Nexus, with 80% of those sales being in Japan. FromSoft couldn't continue the franchise in that state.
None of them are looking at this from the perspective of-
>AC6 has been in development since as early as 2016, that's the earliest point Miyazaki mentioned AC was still going to happen
>They've learned a lot of fundamental shit working on Souls games and spin-offs like Sekiro in order to make fun games that can be enjoyed by casuals while also still being challenging
>FromSoft couldn't make an AC game again if they were bankrupt
>A very small portion of the AC fanbase are still really, really fricking salty that the AC franchise that FromSoft had spent like 17 years on died off for the foreseeable future
Yep that's me. However AC6 looking so good, I just forgive them
>AC6 has been in development since as early as 2016
Yep
Not that long after ACVD. It was always on Fromsoft's mind.
>They've learned a lot of fundamental shit working on Souls games and spin-offs like Sekiro
>FromSoft couldn't make an AC game again if they were bankrupt
Absolutely.
I would only get mad if AC6 get bonfires and respawning ennemies. That's the only thing that really definite souls games IMO and an aspect I was never a fan of.
Saying that an hard lock-on or basic features like bosses having a more recognizable moveset or -GASP- healthpacks are "soulslike" mechanic is absolutely ridiculous.
>Touhou shit
They're ok shmups but there are better ones.
Define soulslike mechanic
Anyone know what song this is in the trailer? or is it something specific to ac6?
the new song by frequency. its shown in the trailer at the bottom
Not at all. They are formative for the series and company history, but old AC is like Street Fighter 1. Neat concept, shit controls. Unfortunately the fanbase in North America appears to be an offshoot of autistic persons who skipped memorizing the details and nuances of locomotives, their parts, and schedules and instead focus all that autism power on the AC parts.
QRD of old AC lore = human plus was EZ mode for players, and Moonlight and Karasawa were From Software cross game series meme weapons.
>1. Neat concept, shit controls.
But.. there's no big differences in controls between AC1 and AC3SL, and they're all great games. Just remap the controls to something that make sense to you and even AC1 plays very well.
I actually used the same base controls from AC1 until Nexus introduced dual sticks, with movement and strafing on the face button and aiming on dpad or the left stick
works very well for AC Gen 1 to 3. Sure it's better with dual sticks but not THAT much better to me.
Obviously. Full control remapping is one of the things From Software got consistently right, however that does not change my opinion that in a modern context AC controls were clunky / obtuse. The game employing every damned button packed onto the control could also be streamlined. Even Daemon X Machina pretty much took the AC controls over to the Switch rather than come up with a more elegant solution. I am very curious to see how AC6 handles, having read comparisons to the Gundam Extreme Vs. games for it.
3D Dot Game Heroes, so technically Moonlight had more interbrand play with From Software games.
Where did Karasawa appear outside of AC?
/m/bros are eating good lately, it feels great.
Don't bother pretending. Armored Souls will be perfect for you.
Just wait for Rubicon. All these AC fans will be super pissed once that game easily outsells the best selling AC games within a few days and forever changes the direction of the series for the better.
You don't even care for the game, you just want to annoy people.
That's what I'm looking forward to the most, once soulsbabbies get comfortable with the concept of Armored Core with AC6 then From can really go all out in AC7, it's a very important game that not only marks the beginning of a new generation but also serves as a hook for millions of new players
>salesgayging
Go watch a marvel movie, homosexual
Im waiting for ninebreaker 2: the ninering
>Im waiting for ninebreaker 2: the ninering
Armored Core 6: Nineballs Return
but its just a bunch of level packs, ac parts and arena maps for $10
oh look it's the new transcore game :3
>its a ""mech"" game where you control a man in a jetpack disguised as mech.
How is Heavy Gear 2 that much different? They're both just shooters with extra steps.
obviously, why do you think souls players always pretend demon souls is good?
That game was incredible when it came out.
why do you want to play the new one if you think the old ones suck?
ACFA is fricking kino man, I just can't.
The best part are the Arms Fort fights and I'm glad those will be back in 6
>I'm shit at the game so therefore they suck
If you don't like Armored Core you 100% were filtered.
Are any of the other games like For Answer with a fast pace and good mix of story missions and 1v1 arenas? Cause thats the only one I liked so far.
Older gens are slightly slower but plenty also have a fine mix of story and arena. Stand out titles would be Project Phantasma, Master of Arena, 2, 3, Silent Line, and Last Raven.
I just don't want to see anime characters as a the forefront of a mecha game. Zone of Ender has a handful of that, many indie mecha games is chuck full of it, and that machina whatever game from Switch can go frick itself. Mecha should and always be the main star of the show.
A friend suggested the addition of a Mechwarrior 5 style hanger that can be explored in the first person. Thoughts?
Nah too much work for and empty and boring place, i like the way it is, V style would be good tough
