People pretend to like this game because it's from LE CREATOR of dark souls. No one would give a shit about this game otherwise. Hell, no one even talks about it anymore as it is. I guarantee this is the only thread up about it currently
People pretend to like this game because it's from LE CREATOR of dark souls.

There's nothing challenging about the trial and error gameplay of from soft games. If anything they're just time consuming.
They're the equivalent of not truly understanding how math works but instead memorizing the answer to problems untill you get them right.
It was fun at first because of the "don't give up" nature of Dark/Demon Souls but every game they release now feels more and more like a chore and just adds extra layers to a flawed combat system
>there are people who think Fromsoft games are hard
Jesus Christ, this is soul-crushing.
who are you quoting I never said they are hard, just time consuming if anything. That's why I'm proud to first time every boss in ER with mimic instead of learning procedural combos for 20 minutes each
You perfectly summarized my thoughts and feelings about the series. It's unfortunate that people will continue to buy and encourage this trend just to brag about beating these games on social media. (they're not even that hard.) Difficulty in gaming is dead
Lmao I bought it purely to support FS
Played the first mission and it was meh
That's why the majority of people bought it. Kek. Now a bunch of moronic companies actually think the mech genre is revived. NO!
>Now a bunch of moronic companies actually think the mech genre is revived. NO!
if they didn't buy into the souls meme (that has been the most profitable for Fromsoft), they're not gonna jump into the nonexistent mecha bandwagon
They already are. There was one that looked exactly like armored core shown at the game awards.
Balteus got nerfed OP you can go back and hopefully get him to phase 2 now
Oh, yes. I dislike the game for the difficulty and not the fact that it's the mech equivalent of Paper Mario Sticker Star in terms of gameplay. If you're so good at the gameplay show me you beating the boss with every single build.
>if you're so good spend hours recording a video for a moronic homosexual on Ganker
Then don't tell me that I'm just bad at the game. If the game's difficulty was fair and good it wouldn't require you to try every combination of parts or know a meta to win. If you're so good at the game then show me it's your skill and not just your build
okay I'll take build requests
give me a build
Jailbreak parts, starting generator and FCS, BUERZEL/21D boosters, WS-1200 THERAPIST stun bomb launchers, VP-61PB pulse buckler, EULE/60D shield launcher.
You have no idea how good the shield launcher actually is. I'mma try it.
Problem: Specified build has EN Shortfall. Using the BAWS YABA Generator instead.
DaS3 and ER just have more tedium in their bosses than anything. My eyes just glaze over. Hoarah Loux and Enforcer are good bosses, Gael and Malenia bored me. Ayre and ALLMIND are on the other hand fun bosses.
Done. It took a few tries - mainly learning that the pulse shield itself is the powerful part of the weapon and not its projectile, demanding some finesse, precise positioning, and prediction on my part to use it to chunk Balt's shields and ACS - but let's be real. A random build in any other AC game against a mission like this would have done just as bad, and this *is* a random build. There's no design behind it. The pulse shield parts imply a level of tankiness, but you're using junk parts that don't have that kind of durability (so this build should be dismissed as CBT right out). The stun bombs imply you're deep into status effects, but you can't proc them through shields and there's not enough. The light gen and FCS don't really contribute to anything. AC games always rewarded tweaking a build to fit the foreseen encounters, and anybody who incidentally created this build would immediately know it needs tweaking to fight about anything. In any other game this is like bringing a Faith weapon on an Int build wearing heavy armor. There's no direction here.
Based
Thanks, anon
Aw man I missed the webm. Was going to save it, that sounded like a cool fight. Good on you for rising to the occasion.
Oh shit, it was only for an hour. Here, I'll upload for another 24. I already use so much of Catbox' space on soundposts that I can't stand an internet argument webm last forever on his servers.
Damn that was remarkably slick. I kneel and saved.
>that color scheme
It's like I'm really playing Cybernator on the SNES.
Frick, I'd play 2.5d Cybernator.
He was never that hard, Ganker is just moronic, so this framing doesn't work.
fromsoft are genius in their difficulty. its honestly amazing how their games manage to be both incredibly challenging and shit easy at the same time. all based on how your approach it.
If you play like a moron they're hard, if you actually use the tools they give you they're an imbalanced joke.
What boss do you consider to be 'hard', I wonder.
The nerf was to his most harmless attack, the misslespam that only gets you if you're charging up energy weapons or melee whiff near him while they're still tracking.
Now they track 5% less, a literal nothingburger.
What filters ppl on this boss is the lack of agression and his regen shield as well as the point blank cannon shots he does whole backpedaling.
I think what threw off most player is the bazooka's splash damage
>He was never that hard, Ganker is just moronic
If you do the optimal build the boss isn't that bad but if you were playing blind on the vanilla version the boss would be able to shred you to death in a few seconds with the shields taking minutes to get down.
yeah he did but then you just adjusted your build
he destroyed me first and I made a quicker build with a lot of burst for stagger and the plasma rockets for real damage, stayed in his face and killed him second try
the game forcing you to adjust builds is a very good thing
crocs are the best. I wear them all the time and go everywhere.
I like this game despite not playing it because it was the most different triple a game to come out in the last few years
"I like this game despite not playing it."
I can't appreciate a game not doing the same shit everyone else is even if I didn't play it?
That's funny because it IS doing what fromsoft has been doing for two decades now. It's not an AC game. It's a rollsoul game at its core. There's not much differentiating DS/Sekiro fights to AC fights outside of the distance of engagement.
What souls games have done to difficulty in games is egregious. Armored core used to be about actual skill and reflexes. Now it's about knowing the meta and memorizing every single bullshit attack pattern.
Would you defend it if it was made by let's say Bandai Namco? The fact this thread is so dry in terms of activity shows you Armored Core 6 is a boring game.
If I had made this thread about balders gate 3 or years of the Kingdom it'd stay up first page for HOURS.
No one gives a shit about fires of Rubicon.
i like giant robot games so yeah, i would have liked it if it wasn't made by fromsoft.
I would have liked it as well. It's a shame how all mech games will now employ trial and error gameplay.
>i like giant robot games
yeah same
harakari fellattio you fricking Black
>MOM WHAT DO YOU MEAN OTHER KIDS LIKE CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM
No one likes this game. It's blatantly obvious. I see barely a whimper held in its defense.
I do THOUGH
>because it's from LE CREATOR of dark souls
>not a single Dark Souls developer nor Miyazaki worked on it
When did this idiotic "corporate brand = one person" autism start? Was it moronic Nintendo fans?
I never said it was from the same creators. I was paraphrasing the general consensus. People assumed it was developed by the people who did elden ring hence why they bought it.
i said MGS with Kojima started this bullshit.
Also OP is a huge ass homosexual
Miyazaki actually did work on it, he stated he only did what he considered like 20% of the project and kept in touch with how the team was doing for AC6 over the years whilst producing Elden Ring.
In fact when choosing between AC6 and Sekiro, he wanted to do AC6 instead. The partnership with Activision meant guaranteed money so they basically coerced him into directing that instead of AC6.
I wouldn't be even remotely shocked if Miyazaki's next game after his next unannounced game is going to be AC7.
He'll probably do AC6:Ashes of Rubicon or whatever first,
I love Souls but I want another AC way more. We had six of these with only Sekiro in-between. Enough is fricking enough. No more Souls for at least two games.
FromSoft is still hiring mecha designers right after AC6 came out, it's only the beginning.
>When did this idiotic "corporate brand = one person" autism start?
When you realize there's nothing stopping literal children from making a thread on Ganker, all the shitposts make sense.
>hard-lock
>dark souls dodge
>Health kits
>sekiro posture bar
>ricochet
>stagger
How can one man inject so many cancerous shit into one IP with his first attempt?
BUt MICROMANAGING BILLIONS OF BULLSHIT SIMULTANEOUSLY IS LE FUn and hard!
Not it's not. Game's hollow and the mechanics aren't that fun to play with once mastered. It's too simplistic.
There's a reason the pvp is dead and buried.
The game is dead and buried. I'm certain if they make a sequel it'll sell significantly worse.
Kek. Haters on suicide watch.
Cut me some slack. Armored Core 2 and Another Age were literally always sold out at the rental place, and buying unknown games without trying them first was too costly.
Then it kinda fell off my radar in high-school.
I can get the ricochet or stagger but the fricking health kids and dark souls dodge is what kills its for me. I was expecting AC 4th gen combat and not this pseudo dark souls slop, I just hope for the next release that they stick the combat back to its roots instead of trying to be a dark souls clone.
>dark souls dodge
Quick boost has been a thing since AC4, so I guess Bloodborne is an AC clone since it has dashing and guns.
Quick boost isn't remotely close to Dark Souls roll. The point of QB is to reposition yourself first and foremost, DS dodge is iframes first repositioning second. Monster Hunter dodge (even though it has rolling animation) is closer to QB than Dark Souls roll.
I think I pretended a bit too hard
This game is complete movieslop filled with waifushit
I got into Demon's Souls from Armored Core. Cope, underageb&
This. If you didn't play AC back in the day then you're a normie or an underage homosexual.
It's a mech game, a good one.
Real /m/en have nothing to pretend here.
It's paper Mario sticker star. You keep trying a build untill it sticks or you look up the meta. This is not what mech games should be. Mech games should be about management yes, but they should also be about quick reflexes.
There is another mech gaming coming out soon it might be gacha trash but the combat looked fun
Hopefully it's good. Mech has huge potential to be fun.
nothing makes the discord seethe more than gameplay webms
Botted
>Ganker will say with a straight face that this is bad gameplay
this board is so unbelievably fricked
Nothing but flashy cinematic movieslop
do you honestly think this looks cool?
yes
it activates the same neurons as Goku beating the shit out of Freeza
you need a high enough concentration of testosterone in your system to appreciate its beauty
Sped up, but I really like laser pistols.
I mean, what even is the point of the laser rifles when these things exist?
>Sped up
it's not
If that's not sped up then I'm suffering some serious time-dilation bullshit, because it seems a lot slower when I fight that boss.
that's the adrenaline speaking
they need a nerf, the dps is insane
Don't you dare touch my fricking pistolens
Give me more Bio-Organisms.
ACVI absolutely nails the feel of mecha anime. Sinking battleships feels so vintage. Also love the weird Eureka Seven plot
It's the best Armored Core game and the only downside is that there could be more content. More missions, more arena fights and more parts. My top 3 are AC6, AC3 and AC4A.
I don't get why contrarians get triggered by this game so much. When From got popular I was hoping they'd eventually go back to AC and I was very happy they not only did but delivered a great game. The stagger bar is a good addition that simultaneously rewards being aggressive but not to the point of being reckless as it allows you shut down careless opponents in return. Hard lock is optional, I played the entire game without using hard lock once. It's there for people who have controllers without paddles and can't into claw grip. You still have advantage over hard lock players with soft lock because you never get confused by spastic camera motion and can do manoeuvres that are impossible while hard locked.
Most complains about AC6 boil down to skill issue and false flaggers claiming they're franchise veterans. You probably just saw VD gameplay and think that slog is le based and good because it more realistic even though AC was always silly spastic mechas even before NEXT turned it up a notch.
>trial and error gameplay
sounds like something DSP would say
I wonder if he played AC6
Haven't uninstalled to this day. I keep playing a random mission or two every other day. I haven't played a single other game in the franchise. My only other mech game prior was DxM and I was very lukewarm on it.
AC6 is amazing. Among my top games of all time. I love it more than all the souls games of which I have played all, Sekiro being my favorite.
Nice bait post
How do I cheese this game and make it ez pz?
zimmermans
Tanks treads, miniguns, cannons.
Switch to the wheelchair when you feel you need more speed.
Dual chainguns, two of those new laser cannons/EARSHOTs/Songbirds/needle cannons
x2 Gattling guns on your back
x2 Majestic Bazooka in your hands
The Gattling guns overheat in 4 seconds, the same time it takes for the bazookas to reload.
1-2-dash-BRRRRRRRRR-repeat for a constant stream of damage and impact.
Its the best game of 2023. The more times goes by the more I realize how great it is. Also, most of my friends that devoured Elden Ring in 2022 completely skipped it. Same thing happened with Sekiro. There is a large portion of Souls fans that don't want anything other than souls.
I loved the style. All the different manufacturers had unique looks.
I enjoyed it.
seethe.
I still haven't beat ALLMIND
The game is fricking greay, I don't care who made it.
>casually wins Action Game of the Year
>4th best selling From Software game to date
Absolutely filtered. Just plain embarrassing, game was kino as frick and had some amazing moments.
>The canonically oldest character in the game literally calls you a tourist.
Bravo fromsoft
Its a game for big robot fans, and it doesnt do a ton to extend past that niche. higher ups at from and bandai seem pretty happy with its performance which means the budget was low. it did exactly what it was supposed to do, be a fun game for mechaporn addicts.
I just hated the health pools between normal enemies and bosses. Everything died in 1 or 2 shots but then bosses would take an eternity. I got bored after the 8th or 9th mission. A shame as well because I played so much of gundam breaker 3 and like mechs.
If anything the regular enemies need x3HP.
Most of the hard bosses can be killed in 60 seconds or less once you get good.
I beat it I dunno what else you want me to do. I have a backlog that needs completing.
it's completely fine, mechs are cool
I don't understand the people who are no-lifing the pvp tho
This is true.
Reminder that AC6 fans are fromdrones, not mech or AC fans.
>mfw literally every video of that new mecha break game, there's a fromdrone seething at the comments that it's not an exact copy of AC6 when literally nobody said that it would be
Amazing how the same fromdrones who started shitting on every action game for not being a souls game just switched targets when fromsoft made a mech game.
Fromdrones are the blight that kills vidya.
I hate mecha break because it's an f2p hero shooter
You’re a worthless moron and a sniveling, disingenuous homosexual.
>AC6 is both the most critically acclaimed and most financially successful game in the series
>Fromsoft is happy enough to continue supporting it with patches and free DLC
>Kadokawa is happy with the increase in quarterly profits, increasing investor confidence in the IP
>Bandai is happy and has confirmed they are working on model kits
If threads are no longer common it is because people have completed the game 100% and have stopped playing.
>b-b-but steam charts! Muh dead game!
No one cares about the ranked PVP, homosexual. It’s a novelty. Even the top content creators consider it a meme. As if that was the main attraction in this game, have you bought your twenty feet of rope yet Shazam? Everyone below this post is gay.
The game was excellent, go frick yourself.
Armored Core VI: Bromance of Rusty is up next
I refunded it because it wasn't similar enough to Dark Souls.
Rent free
>BING BING AWAWAWA NOOOO
>ONLY NINTENDERINO GETS TO SELL GAMES ON BRAND RECOGNITION
You never even knew the series existed before this one.
