Haha holy shit just fuck me up.
>>150338720
Why not just restart?
>>150338720
My favorites are the ones where you only get enough gold to buy a handful of parts in the whole game, but if you die you have to restart.
Doesn't matter what mode you pick though, you always start with a junk AC and no parts or money.

The orirginal cosmos was shit, new version is the only good one.

Nah man original's alright. I prefer the Reprise version though.
>>150342640
Neat. I can't play right now but I'll be around throughout the week.

Just use 2 vertical kojima launchers and a rifle. You will win.
>>150354294
>kojima weaponry
I'll use it sure, it is there a limit before it goes into cheesing?
Dropping this off.

>>150359583
I recall someone mentioning the board game a few days ago, but I didn't actually think it was a thing.
Shame about the name.
>go to Kickstarter page
>$80 to get the game
Cripes, I think I'll just wait for my LGS to get it.
>>150341451
I'm the opposite, I can't stand the one-life runs. One random tank kick or one Cyclops kick when you don't have something to hide behind (7-4) and it's all over.
>>150318823
It's painful, but it's not over yet.
That Mikumo /ss/ though.
>>150357059
Well I mean you only get like 8 shots per launcher and then you have to go in and use rifles or a blade to finish the off the remaining ACs but if using any kojima is considered cheese to you then you could just run a lightweight with dual rifles and a proximity launcher. The key to winning the fight is fighting the ACs separately or 2 at a time.
Is there anyway to import a completed AC4A file onto a usb stick or some shit for a 360? I just wanna build not S rank every hard mode again
>>150366384
check gamefaqs
>tfw one of my favorite shooters might become abandoned because of the dev's awkwardly implemented updates
I guess I'll have more time for AC, I guess. Still, it hurts losing a good community.
>Otsdarva can't even beat Chinese Shangai without the player helping him
>literally loses to a fucking Giga Base, a couple boats, and some normals
Why is this faggot rank 1 again?
>>150370132
Omer greasing some palms, i'm guessing.
>>150370279
I also did Wonderful Body. Wynne can normally solo him but the handful of Normals added on hard mode cause her to get BTFO.
I should do some more experiments like this, see if she can solo Big Box or Defend Cranium.
>>150370464
I've tried getting her to solo Defend, but she's always failed me.
>>150366384
I imagine it should work. It does for the PS3. Like Anon said, go check GameFAQs. They should have a 100% save uploaded.

>$80 to get the game
Pretty cheap as far as boardgames with miniatures go desu.
The whole campaign is looking dodgy af right now though desu. Supposedly 2 years of planning and playtesting but only now do they announce they can't hold on to the IP for fear of FROM not liking something they had planned. They're slowly changing all the models to non-ACs and there's very little info on how major components like the AI expansion even work (the game is real time yet the AI draws cards to determine movement for example - doesn't really add up). Also the only people on the team who've previously made boardgames both botched their kickstater campaigns and left backers waiting years for sub-par products.
Was keen to drop megabucks on a good mecha boardgame but they look like they're pulling some real shit here.
The AC board game isn't a thing anymore. Apparently Bandai or From called copyright on it and they took it down. Same thing happened with that Dark Souls board game from a while back. Seemed fishy, still is.
>>150381990
Only partially true, it's just not AC branded anymore and no it didn't; the DS boardgame was funded fine.
>>150370695
The usually takes out Thermidor. Useful as hell when I duel shinkai
>>150359583
HOLY SHIT that looks cool and would be perfect for a match up with Chromestrike. I'm sure that dick move is Bamco's doing.
>>150377529
Yeah, I though the board game was a joke. I'll see if I can convince my fellow mecha roleplayers to make a pot and get this if things progress smoothly, though he is right>>150377529
>It's painful, but it's not over yet
Yeah, but after all this foreshadowing it would be a bit weird if the roles changed.Unless Fre-Fre dies or she actually Haya-haya's sister or some ass pull like thatI know there's a precedent with SDF, but Minmei was a psycopath
>>150366117
Fukken saved
>>150384685
>I'm sure that dick move is Bamco's doing
Though, this has made me think. If Dark Souls board game was cool n' all, why AC wasn't. Maybe they don't want to create confusion withthe new AC game annoucement
