Last thread. For all newcomers, Armored Core and all JP mecha discussion here. You are welcome to shill western stuff with JP influence. We can talk about Ace combat as well and puchi posting is fine too.
BEFORE YOU PROCEED LISTEN TO OUR THEME SONG!!! instaud.io/jzI
AC pastebin: pastebin.com/z1bJS9gF Read that if you have any questions. If the pastebin doesn't answer whatever question you may have feel free to ask us in the thread.
Been a while since I posted, any new AC6 news or rumors?
Cooper Edwards
Is.... that pilot Hiro from Shin Chan? What is he saying?
Parker Miller
I've been stuck on the final boss of Frame Gride all day. Considering that's another From Soft mecha game, i figure some of you would know it/could help.
Other than just that melee attacks clearly won't work, do you have any suggestions on how to beat the dragon? Any part combination or weapons that work well?
Christian Perez
yes he is, I think is because Chief has the same VA on japanese; about what is he saying, no idea there.
Eli Anderson
wanst the game a total chaos to play with?
Gavin Bennett
bump
Robert Mitchell
I'm not sure I understand the question. A chaos?
Jordan Cruz
It's confirmed in "early production", a lot of us are hoping for a reveal at E3, which is when they've been revealing new games for a few years now (off and on since Nexus). No other rumors yet, but it is coming eventually.
Gabriel Bennett
Man, I wish I could help but I know nothing about Frame Gride. Best I could suggest is looking up FAQs since I doubt that there's even a youtube video guide out there.
Xavier Parker
you can see the other leg behind the left one, they're pointed in different directions. Still bad perspective (especially how the gun is actually kinda curved toward the viewer since it's drawn straight on a fisheye perspective).
I admire the attempt but this image is all sorts of fucked
Samuel Lopez
I havent play the game, but I understand that the game have some problems with the camera, the way the mecha moves sometimes, and some of mechanic are badly implemented.
Chaos wanst the right word.

I will always be bothered by the dual grenade cannons.
Why?
Is 15 shots not enough for you? They make the AC massively overweight and do nothing to benefit combat. If it was a dual back weapon it would make sense but two individual grenades? WHY? It bothered me on genobee too but at least he was a midweight and could possibly fit them without being overweight.
It's like they decided to just take all the meme weapons (sawa, moonlight, dual grenades) and throw them on a single AC without consideration for design.
Xavier King
I only had a couple times where the camera was really an issue.
Eh, my main frustration is the RNG involved for getting the right crystals for crafting parts and how to get the most crystals you had to kill squires before killing your opponent.
Otherwise, I like the increased emphasis on melee combat, the Squire mechanic, and some of the cannons would do interesting things like lay down traps. It's obviously not the same as Armored Core, but I've been enjoying myself with it right until I hit a wall on this boss.

oh god that sounds awful

1. no non-player ACs 2. no story missions 3. only one weapon type
customization is more important to AC than story or arena.

This is my final bump.

we seriously need to recruit some EU posters who can keep this going overnight while the US posters are asleep. Thread doesn't die as long as there's people awake at 4AM.

Jeremiah Gonzalez
Someone should update the list of recommended games. There's a lot of other mech games that have come out since.
Anyone have suggestions for what to add?
Ryder Brown
Make sure to get 90% of Astro Port titles, Dual Gear which is coming along nicely, and i think an user has a new mech game in the works.
Nathaniel Price
>Recruit How would this even work
Nathan Rivera
How exactly would you pilot this?
Kevin Young
Well if you're thermidor mostly by getting caught in the rafters of Arteria Cranium...
Really though Thermidor's build is pretty good on early regulations before Alicia were heavily nerfed. Marve and the EN bazooka do serious damage together and the PM missiles chase down people out of your range. If you want to do a cosplay, you basically have to use the RJ's jumping ability to stay on top of them.
Ideally I would swap the PM missiles for WG's spread missiles, and the plasma cannon for a grenade or slug gun. Use OB to get in close, and then jump on top of the other player while whittling down their PA with marve and the bazooka, grenades every time you're above them.
I also have no idea how practical that would be in reality

How many Let's Plays have you seen for any of the games?
Kevin Nelson
I watch speedruns but I've never watched a let's play.
Jonathan Hughes
People speedup AC? I should see thise, are there any ones that are particularly good?
This guy does good speedruns and he also streams on twitch.
Dominic Sanders
BusterTBM makes a lot of AC content, he's pretty helpful if you want to get into Nexus and Last Raven.

> Omer super trike.
Next game will have one "super" part of each company, it could be a core, arm, or leg or whatever that compose the AC, extra points if you can mix with OWs
Camden Turner
>ironically Aaliyah never squats like in the AC4 Intro FromSoft works in mysterious ways
If I was less strapped for cash I'd buy that for a coffee table book. I'll settle for the scans for now.

you will require a whole crew for it, even if you just buy the kits, you will need to do the sceneries and then the whole thing with cameras and special effects.

wait whaaa
I forgot there were mobile games. Has anyone tried to play them?
Colton Brooks
I watched a little bit of gameplay on youtube once. They looked pretty awful and I don't imagine the controls are very fun being phone games.
Wyatt Gray
It's too bad. With android gaming phones now you could feasibly play AC on your phone, a mobile game wouldn't be so bad.
So, I randomly ran into some ACVD players a few days ago, they invited me to a lobby and I got fucking wrecked. I guess S ranks on campaign don't prepare you for real players.
What are the easier weapons to use while I get used to netplay? I usually favor HWBs and LWBs with ARs, BRs, shotguns and missiles because I can't into energy weapons. Also, should I learn to use Balanced/High Cap generators or can I keep using Suzumushi?
Jacob King
Bump.
Matthew Price
I would personally recommend a machine gun and a CE heat rifle. Easy to get into, easy to aim, does good damage to a majority of online players. Last time I played, the meta was to get alot of energy def, so it catches some guys off guard.
