can we start linking to the previous thread in the new OP?

Sure, i'll start doing that.

Do you guys prefer weapons that do lots of damage / OHKO but require set-up or precision to use, or do you prefer more generalized DPS-race / stun style weapons?

bump

Depends on the enemy really, if an enemy will keep their distance I'll prefer high power since I can aim the weapon, but some encounters are just enemy ACs dancing above my head while I try my hardest to simply get them in my line of sight.

I meant more in a general game design sense.

Like, do you enjoy the combat of AC2/AC3 where you sort of aerial dodge and DPS enemies with multiple hits, or something closer to AC4/ACV where you set up single hit attacks with heavy risk/reward?

In that case I'd go for the DPS race. It allows for safer play and missing shots wouldn't be detrimental.

what are your hopes for armored core 6?
