It has become pretty clear that big mechas would need to be rewritten now based on how obsolete using big expensive gear is now in modern drone warfare.
They're only obsolete if you have no imagination.
>>287240055Just stick a CIWS on them
>>287240055>glazes drones>Mercurius and Vayeight were hopelessly shit>Leo and Taurus dolls hopelessly shit>Virgo and Serpent dolls only useful in overwhelming numbers>Death Army mass produced models only good because they're made of evil regenerating unobtanium metalI think only the original RX-78 would lose to any of the drones in a Gundam series 1v1.
send out... ze bugs...
>>287240055Gundams have been drone carriers for like 40 years already lol
>>287240055It's fine, mecha were already nonsensical anyway. Half the mecha series already in existence already have made up some technobabble about why drones won't work. Or, even better, just pretend drones don't exist and then have the protagonist use/create drones in a 99 IQ move that wins the day. I guarantee it's going to happen someday.
>>287240055Are they?
>>287240055>big mechas would need to be rewritten now based on how obsolete using big expensive gear is now in modern drone warfare.Yeah because mechs were always focused on realism you dumb shit.*shoots million lasers in every direction vaporizing all of your drones at once*
mecha isnt about combat prowess or advantages. big ass robots are cool. that's it.
>>287240055>Force Field>LasersNow your drones are destroyed and you look really silly.
>>287240055Gundam Wing went over this 30 years ago.
But my pyschic anti-funnel defense works on drones.
>>287240055I can't believe I share this board with literal children.
>>287240055Enter power armor.
>>287240055Oh no, giant robots are only just now not feasible in real life!
>>287242050>Leo and Taurus dolls hopelessly shit>Virgo and Serpent dolls only useful in overwhelming numbersMore dangerous than a human army with the same equipment, and easier to replace.
>>287248600That picture is at least 15 years old man.
>>287240055Gundam have addressed this like almost half a century ago.
>>287240055>>287248570>>287249425Where should i start with Gundam?I liked transformers but it turned gay and retarded, Mecha anime aint my cup of tea but i liked Code Geass more than Evangelion so theres that.
>>287249651The beginning. Skip shows as desired.
>>287249376Thats the point.
>>287242050I'm pretty sure the equivalent of drones in a Gundam series would be Funnels, Bits, and those remote control weapons deployed from a Mobile Suit.
>>287249651if that's your taste start with Gundam Seed
>>287240055Macross Plus already addresses this and AI
>>287242059Wow wtf
>>287249352Easier to replace than an ace pilot, sure, but a Virgo cost like a hundred normal Leos and a Serpent, especially the Custom, probably costs more than the original HeavyArms.
>>287240055/m/ exists still
>>2872496510079>Zeta>ZZ>CCAAfter that watch anything that catches your fancy.Only ones you should definitely skip are:>Twilight Axis>build fighters TryAnd>Witch of Mercury The rest rest range from mediocre to Amazing.
>>287252289Witch is good if you like (yuri) romance and CGDCT.
