I suck at FA though, I prefer playing VD. Haven't been online in a little while though, no idea who is playing anymore.

>playing AC Nexus for the first time
>that "remove special forces" mission
I beat it on the first try, but I was almost starting to sweat. Not being able to play in first person AND having my FCS rendered unusable is not fun.

The Armored Core lore seems pretty interesting. I can't wait to beat Nexus and play Last Raven even if it will kick my shit in.

>>168170523
Also is it just me or Dark Souls is actually modeled after the Armored Core lore? I can sort of see some parallels between the great destructions and the cycles of the age of fire (humans can live on the planet's surface) and dark (humans are relegated to the underground).

>>168165246
If that's the mission I think it is, the briefing should have had some sort of warning about that, probably calling it ECM. Resistance to ECM is determined by your head and can be improved with a back-mounted radar.
Or you could go with rockets and a machine gun. Spread is pretty helpful when you can't lock.
>>168170845
In a very loose sense. Very, very loose.
>the surface was uninhabitable but then the grand revolution happened and now it's inhabitable but dicks are trying to ruin that
And that's about the only connection I can make. Well, except for the Kojima Particle connection.

>>168171082
If that part is in the briefing I must've missed it (and even if I didn't I wouldn't have spent money on parts given how you don't get back all of your dosh if you sell the parts). I don't like the Armored Core briefings though, especially because you can't see the area's map and information about the enemy is vague if not inexistent even in cases where the employer supposedly knows exactly what is going on. Nexus seems to be the worst at that so far.

>And that's about the only connection I can make
What about the storytelling, with the lore being in emails and item descriptions? The protagonist never talking and taking on enemies that are increasingly more powerful, to the point that you're taking on "gods"?

>the Kojima Particle connection
Please explain.

>>168170845
Is very loose, you also need to consider how both games develop their stories, on AC, you are living and directly affecting the major conflict of the moment, working for key people, or killing them, you get all the info as missions reports, emails and dialogue, you switching sides constantly, and you basically drive the direction of the war at some point, just because you are that good.

Meanwhile on DS, usually everthing already happened, and you are just clearing all the mess, all the importants persons are death or crazy enough that they cant act anymore, if someone is sane, it lost his/her powers or something stop them to truly affect the outcome of the situation, or they just simple dont care enough to move a finger, there is almost no population left to save, and while they player knows what is going by the items descriptions, can you say the same for the Player character? I doubt he find little notes attached to everthing he finds, specially since a lot of stuff he recovers are from corpser that clearly die in a horrific way.

I would say that there is some common elements, like the player character being a relative normal person (even a undead dont seem to be that different from a human in terms of body, capabilities and abilities, aside from "goes crazy over time" and cant die from age) that somehow just manage to defeat everthing by using standard equipment and skill, you always get a friend/allie that is loyal to you (most of the time) on AC is the operator and on DS is the lady that helps you to level up and watch over the local safe place, you never get a piece of special armor/core or weapon meant to you in the sense of "you are chosen one and only you can use it", and the player is always a new face on the whole thing, you are recently new mercenary in the scene or a undead that was just revived or free from some place.

>>168219975
Hey.
Screw you.
>>168219085
The latest I can find is that there's a beta. That was back in May.

How should I tune the parts in AC Nexus? For example, is it better top increase a generator's output or its energy cap? Can you reset the tuning?

>>168227230
Cooling on everything except generators.
For generators, crap if I know. I always lean toward capacity, but there are good reasons to go for output.
Resetting tuns in Nexus is pretty awful. So, you have to pay money to tune, and then you sell the part, rebuy it, and that gets rid of all the tuning points. Then you have to pay more money to tune it again. Ninebreaker and Last Raven make it much easier, you can freely move the points around without having to buy or sell and tuning is free.

>>168227562
>Cooling on everything except generators.
Do heat inducing attacks really get so bad later on? Also leg weight improvement and arm accuracy isn't worth it? Also if you increase output the energy bar should recharge faster, right? And yeah the resetting tuning part sounds pretty bad.

>>168217951

Well, with that attitude it's almost a certainty.

IS the PS2 VOTOMS game exclusively about Chirico or can you also play as other characters such as Fyana or Mellowlink?

>>168248850
If Vass drops in, he can tell us. Might be a while, though. I might have time to actually turn on my PS3 this weekend, so I'll try my luck.
But man, I will cream my pants if it lets you play as Mellowlink.
>>168227954
The big issue is that heat from Nexus to Last Raven actively drains your energy and lowers your output instead of only lowing output like from 2-SL. That'll get you killed faster than anything. You also have to account for your booster heat and your energy weapons, which makes it all the more precarious. It's not that the other stats aren't useful, but rather that having a big buffer for heat is more important.

someone please talk to me about deep sea fish

>>168250341
From little I played of the game you can use something akin to Mellowlink's rifle. That said I didn't play the game much because I don't know japanese.

Anon. Joshua O'brien. Hold out just a little longer. Thread bump is on the way.

>>168250341

Adding onto this, pretty much every weapon in Nexus causes heat, and getting beaten down left and right will kill you, even with sufficient cooling.

>>168250341
>that heat from Nexus to Last Raven actively drains your energy and lowers your output instead of only lowing output like from 2-SL
So that's why my energy was going to shit in that revolution disc mission.

>>168261081
Does that also apply to enemy ACs or just to the player?

>>168265051

>Does that also apply to enemy ACs or just to the player?
Nah. Every AC has human+. Nobody else has to play by the rules.

>>168267595
>Every AC has human+
WHY. That shit was bad enough in AC1. Was From expecting the Armored Core players to be either total shitters that purposefully blow up the generators for getting the jijirium treatment or autists that use excel or other spreadsheets for minmaxing builds with no inbetween anyway?

>>168268478
No no no, only the upper echelon has it in Nexus. And yes, they're all subject to heat, even if the PLUSers are less subject to it.
In Last Raven, there are only, like, four Ravens that don't have PLUS. Out of, what, 70?

>>168269234
Speaking of Last Raven: in case I'm masochist to the point I try to play it, should I import the saves from just Nexus or would you suggest playing also Ninebreaker? I keep hearing that it's not that good.

>>168270586
just import from Nexus, it will give you some peace on the first couple of missions, unless you do the Distribution Center Recon first.

>>168270586
Well, Ninebreaker really isn't very good.
However.
It introduces a handful of new parts, quite a few of which are really nice. More importantly, some of those parts are a real pain in the balls to unlock in Last Raven.
So you can totally skip it if you want and just import your Nexus data, but getting all the parts in Ninebreaking and then transferring that is its own relief.

>>168275748
What exactly is so bad about Ninebreaker?

>>168276435
Most of it is that it's really dull. The game is a giant training simulator with an arena stapled to it. The arena has some interesting fights, but 80% of the training just isn't interesting. The last 20% is really fun, though. Kind of throws everything you've been learning at you and they almost feel like actual missions.
That said, playing Ninebreaker to completion will make you a lot better at these games. It's just kind of a slog.
Oh, and it also has the #1 ultimate trigger for the nuts of the series. Those who have suffered it dare not speak its name.

All right, first thing's first:
TRIGGER WARNING: PTSD, rage, general unhappiness, Ninebreaker.
Proper Distance 4

>>168283257
Ok, what's so bad about it?

>>168283397
Describing it can only go so far. In text, it doesn't sound so bad, but then you play it and want to die.
So the proper distance simulators are all about keeping your AC a specific distance from a target. If you get too close, you're penalized. If you're too far away, penalized. The target is small and moves around, sometimes pretty erratically. There are small walls all over the place, about shin-height to a midweight biped. Tall enough that going over them is a hassle, but short enough to make you want to try it. Not that you have a choice, you basically need to go over them.
1 has one target.
2 speeds up the target.
3 is where the pain starts.Now the target gets a grenade launcher. You know, the kind that stuns you if you get hit. You're almost guaranteed to get penalized when that happens.
4 brings it back up to speed while it still has the grenade launcher. Oh, did I mention that it double taps with the grenades? It double taps. And the target LOVES darting about at wild and unpredictable speeds. It's not uncommon for you to dodge the grenade shots only for it to suddenly rush straight at you for a penalty.
From what I remember, you fail at four penalties. You have to go for a minute and a half.

That sounds like one of the licenses from Gran Turismo.

I liked AC1 the best.

I liked not having overboost, the slower pace, the blocky mech design (honestly, I think the graphics hold up pretty well for a PS1 era game), and not having to tinker with so much stuff.

>>168306163
Did you also like 20 buttery smooth FPS, having to use excel for every build, to abuse energy weapons because the mission rewards are shit, and to rebuild ACs from scratch all the time because the game only lets you have one AC AND the money constraints? Because I didn't.

>>168306452
Aw yeah, the 20FPS enhanced the feel that I'm looking through the optics of a glorified bucket.

I never needed a spreadsheet, personally.

I just finished the game once, farmed the 2v1 arena mission for cash, then saved multiple ACs for VS/replaying missions.

>>168306712
>Aw yeah, the 20FPS enhanced the feel that I'm looking through the optics of a glorified bucket.
Oh yes because the ultimate combat weapon would have shit sensor as opposed to having the best of the best.

>>168307451
What if 20FPS is the best available? The big jump in AC tech was the synthetic muscle fiber tech, not optics and video software.

>>168308187
>What if 20FPS is the best available
It'd be stupid as fuck as a refresh rate that low means terrible reaction times, you can see that by yourself by playing racing games. Moreover stop trying to justify AC1's technical limitations by citing deepest lore tier shit.

>>168309260
>It'd be stupid as fuck as a refresh rate that low means terrible reaction times, you can see that by yourself by playing racing games.

No matter how stupid it is, if that's the best they've got, that's the best they've got.

That's like saying "It'd be stupid to use bows and arrows when a sniper rifle can kill you from longer range".

>Moreover stop trying to justify AC1's technical limitations by citing deepest lore tier shit.

I just said that it didn't bother me, and that technically it could be justified. Sorry if this triggers you.

>>168309473
>if that's the best they've got, that's the best they've got.
Sure, they have AIs that shit all over humans huge underground cities, and yet displays can't run above 26 FPS.

>that technically it could be justified
No. The game runs like shit because the PS1 hardware is shit. Again, what you're doing is about as bad as soulstard trying to justify bad performance with deepest lore, and this is the last (you) you're getting from me.

I bought ACVD for PS3, where do I get people to show me the ropes on PvP? The Discord channel I knew about seems to have been deleted.
I already cleared it to A rank on 360, but I've only ever played singleplayer AC.
Is an Aoi mdl2, close range, dual BR build viable? It's what I like running.

>>168309716
>No. The game runs like shit because the PS1 hardware is shit.

But anon I played on PC. :^)

Most of them hang out in Free Battle these days. Urist can probably get your foot in the door, I'm certain he still hangs around the threads.
As much as I'd love to invite you to the team and dick around, I'm a ghost for this semester.
Which one's the model 2?

>>168306452

Youre right in that the game does have its flaws but it's also a simpler game so it doesn't get lost in clutter. So the gameplay can shine more.

Then again I think every AC had something good to bring to the table. I dont think there's any singular bad AC game.

Speaking of the older AC games, I beat AC1 a while ago and I'm going to start Project Phantasma soon. Anything I should know going in? There's a ton of trap options in these games.

>>168324701
>it's also a simpler game
It's arguably really not because of the reasons I listed. Unless you don't mind becoming a human+ freak.

>>168327938
>H+ is necessary to play AC1
I'm pretty fuckin casual myself, but come on guy...

>>168328617
I never said nor implied that.

I'm emulating Project Phantasma and encountered some sort of bug. After an arena match it automatically goes into the replay mode and won't exit it no matter what I press. I've been sitting here watch myself blow out the first arena challenger for the past 10 minutes while trying to make it stop and go back to the game. I can still change the camera mode, so it's not like the controls are entirely responsive. It's just that the cancel replay button doesn't work at all.

What do?

>>168327938

The reasons you list just make the game feel more challenging, and I genuinely don't mind them. It meant that you didn't have a margin for error to fall back on. You had to think before you blindly went into a battle. There's nothing wrong with a game throwing a challenge at you.

Now, you're right about the 20 FPS comment. I wish it ran at a better framerate and genuinely won't try to imply that it's better.

>>168340002
Skip the arena? It's the circle button, right? Is that working everywhere else in the game?

>>168341806
It's the X button. It worked eventually after I kept mashing it for a while and it seems to be working normally now. Not sure what the problem was, the button works fine everywhere else.

>>168340105
And to me they make the game feel like a fucking chore, given that you have to play a mission to actually see how it is first and take notes, as the briefings generally aren't useful, then reload the save and build an AC appropriate for the mission, which is annoying as fuck because you can only have a single AC and you're tight as fuck on money which means that you have to sell and rebuy almost every component excluding the generator and optional parts for about half of the game. That's not difficult nor challenging, that's tedious.

>>168342396
And I forgot: having to rely on energy weapons because the ammo for those is free is while solid round weapons not only cost money but are in some cases really expensive (ammunition damage to cost ratios go from about 3.2 to about 12 depending on the weapon which is imbalanced as fuck) is pretty stupid. From should have either made all of the ammo free or made you pay also for energy weapons that aren't the blades.

What is the point of the FINGER in AC Nexus? Is it to be considered merely as free money or does it have an actual use?

>>168461894
I think you're going to have to decide for yourself through videos.
Although, it seems like I turned over the right rock and the game isn't as dead as I believed earlier. There was an update today and possibly also a dev stream. It either already happened or will be happening here soon. That might give you some better information.

I mean, if you can get right up on someone with two of them, they will melt. You may end up learning this the hard way over the course of the game.

What are you favorite mooks on the serie? and why?

>>168527473
I like the big shield MTs in 5th gen. They're one of the few mooks that you can't just brute force. You have to outmaneuver them and attack from behind or scan them and exploit their defenses.

>>168527935

You can't prove that. Wolcott is pure and is a much better pilot than those twins.
Shelley was also groomed by Long.

I can't beat Marche au Supplice on hard. I've been trying it off and on for months now. Arteria Carpals is easier than this bullshit.

>>168805386
Move around a lot and try to get them separated. Kojima arms girl is the fastest and the frailest, so ideally, you can catch her when she's ahead of everyone else and take her out quickly. Then keep flying around until you can get Berlioz split off and take a few shots at him while the others catch up.
It's a painfully long process, but it's much safer than trying to fight two or three at once.

Please teach me, which on-disc reg is more fun for singleplayering FA? Can't download the newer ones. I did a quick test and research after getting the game.
>1.0/1.1 - you seem to have way, way more energy so more boost/flight. That's good.
>1.15 - infinite energy, but that would be too easy and make a lot of building meaningless
>1.2 - people say blades are good, the inblue FCS I started with is way more effective. I don't know how useful it is in singleplayer, but I like action games.

>Maybe I'm just biased because I can't stand how it looks.
At first I watched it because how bad it looked, just for shits and giggles, but then I actually started to enjoy the story. Also in episode 5 it actually starts to look better, for example they added antialiasing.
