Let's discuss Armored Core and other mecha games. > Where did multiplayer-bro go? >Favourite game >Favourite core >What kind of build are you running? >Quads vs Biped
There was supposed to be some multiplayer going this morning, anyone around for that?
I'm getting absolutely fucked by The Last Raven. I've cleared the entire arena but I straight up do not have the ammo to win in any mission that requires that I duel an enemy AC in addition to any other objectives. I have two rifles and an EO core, and it's still just not happening.
Never played LR. Isn't that supposed to be the hardest game in the PS2 series?
Colton Bailey
A bit off topic, but anyone else find mecha using melee weapons stupid?
Carter Watson
it is but is on the cusp of bullshitery due to the amount immunities and resistances many ravens have because of FROM said so drop one of those rifles and use a bazooka
Dylan Butler
rule of cool
Isaac Cruz
It's worse than that, I'm playing the PSP version because it emulates better. So I have a little less functionality on top of everything else and they didn't cut the difficulty for it whatsoever.

It was a tribute to the series, instead of a spiritual successor. That's why. That's a (You) problem.
Mechs who don't fly high and fast for a sustained amount of time is way dumber than that in my opinion. A mecha shouldn't be less efficient than an airplane who can go from point a to b extremely fast to deliver extremely powerful bombs.
Christopher Long
Do you find the Front Mission games satisfying for your mecha urges?

>AC MP lol >Favourite game 4FA >Favourite core Design and size wise the ACV kind honestly, if only they weren't literally piece of garbage that can't even gain altitude with their booster alone. Performance wide obviously the Nexts win but they're too big >What kind of build are you running? Max energy + speed >Quads vs Biped Depend on terrain and loadout
Carson Wright
Absolutely. I like all the games
Noah Brooks
I find sustained-flight mecha less fun for some reason. You lose sight of the scale and there's less nuance to always-flying compared to making rapid decisions going between grounded combat and aerial.
Mason Rogers
I get that too, yeah
Jose Ortiz
Last Raven I forget Biped Boost Swordbro hurr
Joseph Young
>different college >4A >White Glint >meme dual plasma blade >quad
they're fun but the gameplay is so different that it doesnt really scratch the same itch
Noah Taylor
When are we getting a new game like these ones? DxM is not enough to fill the void.
Jack Reed
At 5pm Pacific we'll be playing 4A, get ready everyone
Juan Adams
PS3? Oh wait, shit... I lost my save data, so I don't have any mechs.
Benjamin Brooks
That's OK, if you wanted to play you could just use one of the stock ACs
Nathan Green
Anyways, yeah, you guys are playing on PS3 or Xbox? I might be able to use one of the stock ACs given if I can configure the controls to my liking.
Nicholas Stewart
PS3 mainly but there might be xbox people ITT
Nicholas Harris
PS3 I think
Andrew Harris
never >tfw no more mecha or mechs
Christian Brooks
Alright, then let me quickly get on and slap around with a stock AC.
