I'm surprised there aren't many(if any) games copying the AC series. I think they perfected the genre with FA4. Although I suppose there are things that could be changed, like for example making energy weapons actually viable and making heavy units good.
>>
>>383397658
Nah man, ACs gameplay is secondary compared to the building part.
>>
>>383398289
I agree with that. That being said, the gameplay is a step up from your typical mech FPS or really any western made mech games. Might be a bit biased here though as I pretty much started with AC 3/Last Raven
>>
>>383398728
I really do wonder what the next AC game will be like. Hopefully it comes to PC too, would love the potential mods.

A man can only dream. Just hope it's less AC5/Verdict day and more AC4/For Answer. Hell, I wouldn't mind if they returned to older style.

The one thing I REALY didn't like about AC5/VD was that bumping dealt damage/cause stun. It made melee weapons unviable. Hell, they're already unviable most of the time what with their lack of range, the fact that they only deal so-so damage and that they don't let you deal constant damage like a lot of other automatic weapons let you.

Fuck that, I want Gaijew to make a mech game with War Thunder physics, it'd be pretty cool to play as mechs with such complex module damage and armor penetration mechanics.

And preferably jap style mecha, walking tank western style designs wouldn't be much different from the typical tank gameplay.

No dude literally git gud. Melee hits do great damage and you can actually take down most enemy ACs if you manage to land the hits. Best melee weapon is the energy machetes, go for max range in the tuning window when you purchase them.

>>383401834
I'll keep that in mind, if I ever decide to replay the game. I only remember using melee in that one mision where the UNACS go out of control and you're suposed to defeat a large amount of 40-50k hp units. All of my ranged weapons ran out of ammo, so melee was my only solution here.

Okay anons just want to check one last time here. I'm about to emulate one of the AC games but I'm only playing one for now. I have a pretty big backlog as it is.

So which is the best AC game to play? Most of the time I've asked this people tell me to play Last Raven. Although I was told AC3 is good to.

If I end up liking the series I might go pick up For Answer and Verdict Day.

>>383403603
AC3 seems to be a good entry point. Last raven is seen as one of the harder ones, although I remember blowing everyone up with a floating tank style AC with energy cannons out of the ass(atleast in the arena battles). As for For answer and Verdict day, they play in a different style. Not to mention that they did away with heat management.

Start with AC3.
The latter ones in the series allow you to carry over your save and tend to be designed with the carried over progress in mind. Especially Last Raven.

>>383404514
>>383404746

So should I just emulate Silent Line, 3 and Last Raven then? I won't be getting around to the others until after I play some other games in my backlog to. I also want to try out a King's Field game. Basically I want to play at least a couple of From Software's other games they made not called Souls or Bloodborne.

Many of the designs from Battletech and subsequently Mechwarrior come from Macross. This actually lead to a point in 2009 where Harmony Gold, the cancerous tumour that killed any chance of Macross coming to the West properly, sued the at the time newly revealed Mechwarrior game because it was using a Macross design which HG seized all rights too despite having nothing to do with its creation. HG and Robotech is why Japan completely gave up with bringing Macross over here.

Also Heavy Gear takes huge influence from Armored Trooper Votoms.

Armored core and Front mission are the best mech games in my opinion. If your mech game doesn't include customization then what's the point.

I'm playing Gundam Breaker 3 right now and I honestly enjoyed customizing mecha in AC:4A more, combining parts from different Gundam universes triggers my canon-fag autism, I want that level of customization but with original designs that go together better like the ones in AC.

And GB3 has too much alternate universe bullshit, seed designs all look the exact same, I want more obscure weird looking UC designs.

The only AC with good gameplay is FA, and I say this as somebody who has been with the series since 98. The only thing that ever compelled me was the customization which had never been done before at the time. Up until FA the gameplay could be summarised as "strafe left/right and mash fire as the enemy hung on the edge of your FCS aim."

>>383411183
Every piece has stats and performance differences that affects weight, stagger, speed, even movesets. Larger variation than what AC parts do beyond leg choice.
>>
>>383411183
>It gets so detailed you can add small parts to balance your machine in different ways which affects its movement.

Legs, boosters and shoulder boosters are literally the only thing that effect turn rates and speed. The rest simply falls under "don't go overweight unless you have the mod part to do so."

Hey now, I like japanese mecha better than western mechs, but Titanfall's mechs are really good looking. Design aesthetic is paramount when it comes to mechs because they're purely fiction.
Also, chicken legs are a better design for fast movement than human-like legs. Hell, anything is better than human legs, it's one of the shittiest designs in nature.
As for the lack of excessive armor, I'd argue that mobility beats protection in most situations, as per modern combat technology. Weaponry develops faster than protection and force/momentum always beats any armor, but it can't beat something it can't hit.

And again, all of that customization(Where's internal and optional parts by the way?) is wasted on the basic gameplay of a Musou game, which can't even remotely compare to AC.

Are you sure? I remember for answer specifically had a system that showed you what side of your mech was heavier and you could attach shit to balance the weight out or put it all on the front to increase movement in that direction at the cost of stopping slower.

Yes I did fucking play Armored Core. Do you want me to go through the whole detail of AC2's ending on Phobos against the two part final boss? The ending of AC3 where you're trying to shut down a giant malfunctioning AI as you're attacked by other Ravens? How about the multiple endings of FA where you either save the Cradles, bring down the satellite grid so man can advance beyond Earth, or kill everybody with Old King?

Jesus man, Armored Core's gameplay is absolute trash excluding FA.

It's true, though. We're far from being the fastest/most agile species in the animal kingdom. Human feet aren't designed for proper running like, say, a kangaroo's or a cheetah. No wonder so many athletes wish they could chop their feet off to replace them with Flex-Foot prosthetics. And that's without mentioning all the different injuries you can get from stumbling.

Two legged animals aren't designed for speed. Not only do they have half as many legs as a four legged animal, which obviously translates into less muscle power, but having two legs also means you need balance.

Two legs however (and the human body in general) are designed for endurance. We might not run the fastest, but we sure as shit can run longer and further than any other animal.
>>
>>383413343
Okay now I'm confused, is Musoushit easy or is it hard? One minute you're saying it's brainless and now you're deriding for somebody by implying they play the games on easy, which insinuates they take some skill on harder difficulties.
>>
>>383413645
>>383413645
>Two legged animals aren't designed for speed.
And that's my point. Agile mechs with nature-inspired leg designs (ostritch/chicken leg designs etc.) are better than fully armored, slower ones with human-like legs in most situations because they have a better chance of evading enemy fire, instead of just tanking shots until they explode.
Human endurance doesn't really matter for mechs because they're machines.

Do you want speed or do you want something that can support fuck-tons of weight without breaking it's legs and cover multiple times the distance before getting tired out thanks to plantigrade legs using less energy?

The reason humans are the best hunters on earth is because no animal can outrun us forever, a deer might run away faster than a human can chase it but the human can just follow it's tracks at a comfy pace for a while to find it tired out then beat it to death with a rock for funsies.

Yeah, that's a build built specifically for her mission though, big difference, which also marks the difference between someone good enough to beat her without a hard counter and someone that uses premade builds.

Now we're going into full muh realism bickering.
I want something balanced. If I wanted to carry 5 fucking howitzer guns on a vehicle I'd pick a 4-legged artillery mech, not a human-legged one. If I want speed with good firepower I'd pick a hind-legged one.
>No animal can outrun us forever
But they can outrun you until you're tired enough to be killed when recovering. Also, stop applying this stupid bullshit to mechs. We're talking robots, not organic creatures.
By the way we're only "the best" hunters because our intellect allowed us to create tools to kill other animals with. Without that, we're naturally at the bottom of the food chain.

Anon, he's using pistols. There has never been a good pistol in AC, they're all low damage, low ammo capacity weapons that only became somewhat useful with the introduction of pistol side weapons in AC3. He beat Zanaida with one of the worst weapons in the game by strafing left and firing.

Note that persistence hunting only works in hot environments, the animal dies of stroke and exhaustion because they're unable to regulate their breathing and run at the same time.

A polarbear could outrun you until you died of exposure.

Actually, legs in general are terrible for mech designed because of endurance. Just because they are robots doesn't mean they are not subject to physical stresses and strains. Having two legs support a massive weight is going to fuck them up badly, the joints in particular will just crumple.

It's one of the reasons tanks don't have legs but instead wheels and treads (wheels are also much simpler and less prone to failure, more energy efficient and capable of significantly higher speeds).

Anon, even in SL they were literally the only weapon together with rifles that was used in high level PVP because they outclassed anything else by far, and this is without considering that you yourself posted a video of someone beating Zinaida with pistols.
But since you evidently don't know that LR doesn't have Human+ and still keep on saying that Pistols, one of the parts with faster projectile speed and amazing balance in terms of weight, damage, heat and magazines were never viable, it only makes further discussion pointless.

Not that anon but you kinda proved that discussing AC isn't worth it on /v/

Pistols are great hangar or supplement weapons. Dual wielding those revolvers in LR yields amazing damage output. I usually dual wield them then discard it for a stored blade on my quad while using back weapon for main damage.

Also, when you're discussing competitive AC nobody is talking about Human+/OP-I shit. That shit isn't allowed. What that anon is saying that using back weapons while crouching can be a great opening act in an arena. Especially if you're a heavy with EO.

Mech is far from the best genre in video games. And the only good mech games are Japanese ones. American mechs are too slow.

>inb4 realistic

Actually if mechs were real, they'd be made to be as fast, mobile and flexible as possible. It makes no sense to have a slow moving vehicle with joints like that of a humanoid figure. It doesn't matter how much armor it has, it would be wasted. Just make a better tank and have more of them. There's your far better option than mechs in battle.

>In a series that actively encouraged PVP in every single game

You're a moron. Asia and especially Japan and Korea are big on pro gaming. These countries are the biggest consumers in this industry and constantly have the most populated communities in competitive games. Fighters, MOBAs, MMOs, Starcraft etc. are all majority Asian.

probably everyone because you only get the Karasawa and the human+ pretty late. I mean human+ shows a major design flaw in the game tho. With it on, there is no reason to do anything other than light-medium weight biped with cannons. With it off a lot of coolness and flexibility is lost.

Anon, for the last time, no matter how much you try to move the goalpost, every AC player worth his salt is and always was on the PVP scene.
You evidently are not one of those, but literally all the core part of the fanbase is heavily PVP oriented, which is why there were many games that were either exclusively PVP based, like Formula Front or Ninebreaker, or games that were very heavily PVP based, like V or VD which also included team play if you need even more of a hint.

AC is nonexistent out of Japan so it's obvious 90% of the tournament related stuff was japanese only, the games only started getting slightly less japanese based in terms of userbase with V and VD, despite opening up considerably with stuff like 4A.

The fact that you desperately try to shitpost your way out of any argument only makes you look more pathetic.
>The gameplay you posted looked about the same as a fight against the typical #1 Arena bot by the way. How compelling.
Said by someone who never did any PVP it's pretty rich, well, you wouldn't last a second in an actual AC match anyway.
>>383420325
Depends on the core build, usually the cockpit is located in the back/shoulder part.
Said cannons are really only a anti missile measure, they're peashooters meant to shoot or trim down Itano circuses

Trash might be a harsh word but 3/SL are infinitely superior. 2 had poor balancing, difficulty spikes (albeit this is arguable) and most importantly fucking awful slowdowns that rendered the game unplayable with certain setups and missions.

It did have some really cool ideas though, like Limiter Release.

Pilot is still in the cockpit. The turret in front of him is just an anti-missile weapon that fires automatically.

its not a cannon. its either a radar/antenna type of thing or an small anti-missile laser system.

cores hold generator, cooling system, boosters to glide/move and either overboost for fast travel or detachable gunpods.

the pilot would be located in the head, which is part of the radar system.

Sometimes you want dirty and grimy, punchy murder weapons. Heavy and bombastic.
At others you want fast and sleek, graceful machines that destroy everything with precision. Showy and spectacular.
And then there are times when you want both at once. And you can have them.

What the hell? Where is this coming from? They're IN the core. You can see Zinaida coming out of it and multiple artworks and manga showcased it. You can also see little seat if you zoom in the chest without the head.

Radiators are in front of the boosters and generators are in the stomach. When you're making your AC in LR for example you can see the parts glowing in the locations where they're placed.

Not even close.
Ninebreaker's campaing is only good to teach you the very basics of getting accustomed to basic mechanics, spacing and react to various types of weapons, the AI is very limited and can be easily exploited, a fight against a human being is a whole different world starting from basic movements alone, let alone the fact that PVP builds are completely different from campaign builds.
You can't expect a human to eat or even evade missiles like the AI does, nor you can expect a human to target you and poke you like an AI does, especially considering the simple fact that said AI is cheating and has inflated stats.

Theres a minecraft style space game being made by a french dude called Sky Wanderers. You can make ships and fly to other planets and harvest materials to build more shit.

He recently showed off that youll be able to have Halo style ring worlds, and if you make the ring wider you can have massive round colonies like in muh gundums.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yB2axlbHso8

But then he recently showed this off, and he has a system where you can take an endoskeleton for a mech, and buil on it to make whatever kind of mech you want.

People are going to build fucking gundam colonies, and fight in them with gendums and ships, or have people transporting their mechs to other planets in dropships so have robot battles.

Movements janky right now, the games still early alpha as fuck.

Pilot puts on his helmet that has RAVEN on the back and the main sensory laser light of the AC head unit lights up scanning him and the cockpit hatch opens.

The main culprit of the clusterfuck is Harmony Gold. I shit you not, a retarded judge gave the company full indefinite rights to everything related to Macross in the States with barely any consultation from the actual creators of Macross. Thanks to that fucking blunder, and Harmony Gold's insistence on churning out garbage in some vain hope of trying to get back the dead Robotech audience, Macross is NEVER seeing a Western adaption past the original series ever.

The only silver lining to this story is that Bandai/Hasbro or whoever it was at the time absolutely FUCKED Harmony Gold in the ass when it came to toys which is what killed Robotech. They sold the Super Valkyrie and other titular mechs to the likes of Transformers (Jetfire), which meant the Robotech toys were literal cheaply made dolls that Harmony Gold had to squander up themselves. They flopped horribly as you'd expect.

Oh, it's an acquired taste and definitely a bit of a fetish, I'll give you that.
But let me tell you, eating 3000+ AP in single swing of a red hot blade of pure rage followed by a huge explosion after carefully calculating a target's blind spot in maneuvers is something special, especially when you get consistently good at it that you don't need to fire a single bullet, just evasion and surgical strikes that destroy parts in a single hit.
If the poor folk has terrible cooling you can also watch it struggle against its energy bar getting neutered and its AP melting passively from the heat.
And if you're feeling like a total asshole just use quad legs so you can one shot any AC that isn't a heavy defense type since with quads blades turn into pilebunkers, except vastly better on all fronts.

I wonder if they actually planned that far ahead especially given some of the crazier theories/implications of ACV/VD

Nah, not even close, Nineball doesn't even have PA.
The one you're looking for is the Final Pulverizer, which also has proto PA.
And that makes the last raven from LR some kind of MD Geist/Doomguy force of nature since he took down a proto Next on his shitty AC after killing the all the best of the best Ravens, all in one day, with no breaks, no human plus augments either, just a man on his AC.

Imagine the Last Raven unleashed in any other AC setting, hell imagine the Last Raven in any mecha setting.

Also iirc some dialogue in V/VD either references or outright drops some of Nineball's dialogue ('you are simply not part of the program') but that might be side material I'm thinking of

Yeah, builder's parts give you a lot of options on changing up the appearance of your suit. It really added a ton of variety to the kind of things you could make.
Aside from the obvious "more kits", the only things I really want for GB4 are
>more slots for builder's parts; 8 is rather limiting
>split waist/legs and shoulders/arms into seperate slots
>custom emblem creation
If they did that, I think it'd be damn near as perfect a Gunpla game as you could get without somehow adding the ability to design entirely new parts from nothing.

It's hardly a "mecha" game. Even if the majority of the endgame content is being a god with your Skell, Overdrive combos did significantly more damage, and you only really needed to ride around in order to reach access points in high places.
>>
>>383443543
If we're talking about with THEIR OWN mech, I would definitely put it at Strayed being the strongest, followed by LR's Raven, and lastly VD's Raven. If we're talking about in an even AC, I would probably say that VD's Dark Raven is probably the most powerful, followed by LR's by a hair, and lastly Strayed by a greater distance. VD's AC's are basically tricked-out MT's found in the trash can, and the guy in VD managed to take down a literal zombie Next with zero backup. The only reason I might consider LR's Raven to be on that same level is because Pulverizers are literally constructed to be stronger than AC pilots, and are built with the knowledge of how to destroy them. Though in a sense, the AI that went into J was built from Joshua O'Brien's memories of warfare, and he had been through the entire Lynx War or if the J we're talking about is from FA, the Economic War, and this includes battles against dozens of Next elites, hundreds of Normals, and in the case of FA, multiple Arms Forts. Downing some faggot in an MT should be easier than swatting a fly, yet he perserveres.

Nigger please, I just rushed all pulverizers with my blades as soon as they appeared, even the ACs could barely react to getting one-two comboed with pile bunkers or using the moonlight once I unlocked it.

This mindset got even worse with each new game because the melee weapons got better and I loved just bumrushing everything, I fucking loved that they added the kicks in AC5
