Imagine being a random MT opeator tasked with capturing a watchpoint and see this thing re-entering the atmosphere above your head
>>22958199DLC will make Karasawa great again
Does anyone know what 'AC POCKET SAVE' does in jap version of MoA?
>>22958277>being a grunt in the first place>not deserting if you where forced to
>>22958325But anon, your family back in Jupiter. You won't be able to afford your daughter's medicine...
>>22958282karasawa is already pretty scary in 6 thoughdo you mean something like a more traditional karasawa is gonna get put in?
>>22958328organized crime certainly pay better and is probably less risky than being an MT pilot or any kind of grunt on a frontline
Elcano supremacy
>>22958347But your family lives in the Arquebus Housing Unit.... your wife works at the Schneider factory.... your daughter goes to Snal Education Academy... they'll come after them
>>22958317MoA was a PocketStation compatible gamehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PocketStation#Compatible_PlayStation_games
>>22958458Ooh interesting, maybe it allowed sharing builds or something... thanks!
>>22958507according to a Japanese list I found, it was basically just a little battle RPG thing you could do with your builds
>>22958525Yes, the 'acpocket save' installs some kind of armored core minigame on the pocketstation... probably.
Accidentally posted this in the wrong thread.Keanu's AC is using a snub Haldeman.
>>22958576oh, so the barrel/ ammo tube got shortened too
What I've compiled so far and will probably never update it because I'm lazy.
>>22958606The arms on the RJ ACs with the Firmeza cores kinda look like more jagged and edgier versions of the RaD Tool Arms.
>>22958606love those WIDE ACs
>>22958606The job listing thing is 8 years old...
>>22958617Considering the job listing is no longer available, and a dozen websites reported on this in July of this year, you're gonna have to show what you're looking at.
>>22958622https://youtu.be/fomMgbhZwLc?si=Iz3jQ8KlLlSxFPpgThe first few minutes.
>>22958624I mean, his evidence seems to be it's not real because it uses the same wording as a previous listing? That's what I'm understanding. However, all modern businesses will just reuse and reupload job listings whenever they need more boots filled or someone quits. These things are often available on an internal network for quick access.
>>22958606you didn't even get it right, the second melander has different hand weapons
How do you see generation 6's frame designs evolving with a second or third game?
didn't fromsoft massively hire this year and grew like 50% in workforce size?
so, about the things on the armit's not (visible at least) on the other so it's likely not part of the arm, could be a shield, could also be an extension since they can't be on shoulders anymore with the boosters being in the way and it's not swapped with haddleman
>>22958676It's too blurry to tell, but I bet it's the melee/forearm attachment point. I guess SHRIEKER has it on both arms instead of just the left one
>>22958668Yeah, and they're still hiring like crazy.
>>22958653>the second melander has different hand weaponsAnd you can barely see them so it's absolutely irrelevant to try and guess what they are. At best, it looks like the left-hand weapon is the TURNER or SCUDDER, but the right one is completely impossible to gauge. I don't feel like it's necessary to autistically label every single weapon, it's more to emphasize there are new original designs alongside very clear AC6 parts we used in the game, which gives credence to us getting these in a future DLC or expansion.
>>22958379Balam weaponselcano chestis that Tool Arm?and unknown rj legs
Don't Elcano and RaD parts imply this is Rubicon?
>>22958733I'm pretty sure the AC6 parts in general along with the shitty, snowy climate imply it's Rubicon. The place was a private tech bubble.
>>22958746>shittywhat are you, Brazilian? Cold weather is comfy
>>22958746>Balam>Furlong>Arquebusparts could exist anywhere in the universe. RaD, BAWS and Elcano are specifically Rubicon-based companies.I'm surprised the RLF guy never gave you missions on behalf of Elcano. I know he gave you a BAWS one
>>22958750Doesn't Elcano hide its relationship with the RLF?
>>22958750Elcano isn't rubicon based, but they do have a partnership with BAWS/RLF
>>22958751They do a shitty job of it. Half the RLF ACs are almost completely Elcano
>>22958727the other one is a HARRIS, you can see the rear band and sight mount on itas for the other the turner's the only one with the L mag plus the weird handguard
>>22958606
>>22958751>the only non-RLF ACs with Elcano parts are... well, IS ASTER CROWNyeah...
>>22958769I mean, Faust uses BALAM parts, doesn't mean he works for them
>New RJs have mega wide hipsMy favorite, makes your AC look beefy.
ORTUS should've had a coral generator.He's the champion of Rubicon.
>>22958770you're having a stroke
So uh, kind of off-topic but how does one hypothetically pirate an amazon-prime stream? I am simply asking for research purposes and do condemn piracy and I am asking for a friend and it was justified because corps forced my hand and I am mentally unstable and the stream dressed like she was 21.
>>22958779*Freud
>>22958782I like HDtoday, its 1080p and will usually get posted the next day, you sound like you dont know how to torrent so a web browser is safe and easy, just have to wait a day, a HD torrent can sometimes be posted just 10 minutes after it comes out
>>22958783Freud was canonically fucking around with a build just trying random shot
>>22958277Sometimes I wonder what is more risky, being a Raven or an MT pilot.
>>22958785I did use torrents before. Like twice and just for Linux distros of course. I just wasn't sure if and where to look for the link. Is PirateBay a place to look?
>>22958788Realistically speaking, being a Raven. Most MT pilots probably get stationed to boring duties like "guard this depot in bumfuck nowhere". Unless you're part of an assault force meant to engage in battle constantly then you shouldn't see fights too often. In contrast, Ravens go on missions constantly. LR is the most extreme case where you do every mission during the course of a single day, and most Ravens die during that day.
>>22958796In exchange, a Raven will quickly get rich from said missions should they survive, and there are some pretty tough Ravens that can survive even some of the deadliest ones (MC not included becauae that's cheating). And this is me taking into account the base pay subtracted by the ammo costs and AC repair and some arena victories too. Though yeah I agree that easily the worst time to be one was during the events of Last Raven.
>>22958783Freudian slip? FAUSTIAN SLIP?!
>RAVENS roost on BRANCHES
>>22958808Question was what was riskier. Obviously being a Raven is much more profitable
>>22958814It's an extremely high risk, high reward job at the end of the day.
>>22958785Secret Level doesn't show up on HDtoday. Anything I am missing, other Sites?
speaking of the episode thing, will they all release at one one one by one? AC probably won't be the first one
>>22958827I releases on the 10th, doesn't it?
>>22958606I think this is a bit too far fetched. Yeah to my knowledge they asked for mechanical designers after ACVI, possibly for a DLC, but I don't think we are seeing new parts here. It is probably more of a "what is ready at the moment at From + what freelancers artists can produce for the episode kind of thing", remember that this thing is probably in the works for a while. Overall I am more excited to see what they have made since if you told any of us two years ago we were getting an high budget short/episode with a famous actor as Kneau Reeves I would tell you to put down the crack pipe. Still feels absurd to know that Armored Core is somewhat mainstream or at lesat known and not a series for nerd between nerds. And for a DLC, I guess it is possible/somewhat sure that we are getting it, TGA could be another occasion to remind people Armored Core exists (opposed to Elden Ring, for which telling people a DLC was coming was enough to reach 25M copies) but we will see.
>>22958819Given the corporation's power, It's very likely that most MT pilots are literal wage slaves. So a CREST pilot probably lives in a CREST city, spends his paycheck in the CREST supermarket, watches CREST tv etc.
>>22958835Sure but aren't there earlier episodes? Does HDtoday only host recent stuff? Sorry for (maybe) being a moron but I thought I could catch up with the rest to have a broader view on this.
>>22958847Meanwhile, within legal limits, a Raven is able to do damn near anything they want because hey, they're neutral, no real loyalty to any of the corporations.
>>22958873Wonder where the corporate Ravens sit in the spectrum
>>22958887Probably similar to a corporate MT pilot but with much more privilege, but still less than your typical Raven. A corporate Raven can't just tell them to go pound sand when the corporation does something they don't like.
Behold: The wage cage of the future
>>22958788AC pilot job safety is a function of how likely you are to get ambushed by another AC on corporate payroll.The fewer company shills are out there, the better off you are as an independent Raven hanging around in whatever passes for a guild in a given continuity. Otherwise, find the company with the most AC pilots on their payroll and just sign up for MT duty while the Ravens get sent out to do the actual front line fuckery.
>>22958199I am going through silent lines arenas right now and I am starting to really miss the night snow map from AC1. That was just THE best arena map so far, although the jungle map is pretty good too.
>>22958812Stop recognizing patterns.
>>22958847>CREST employee for life >only source of entertainment are CREST-produced family sitcoms
>>22958812So do KINGS and CHARTREUSES. Wait no, the theme falls apart. I'm pretty sure it'a meant to be a branch of OVERSEER's tree
>>22958887Judging by the dialogue in that one training mission, Genobee seemed to have carved a rather cushy little niche for himself until he decided to throw it all away for (((some))) reason. I only remember his later post defeat speech being about being expendable or something, was it elaborated upon somewhere?
>>22958908Is this the first MT?
>>22959009>Matt Meadow, my favorite Crestnime.
>>22959015Wasn't that a conflict between Crest HQ and local Crest branch? He sided with the branch and HQ hired MC to finish him off to get branch back in line.
Thoughts on the current state of pvp?
>>22958887>>22958892>>22959015>Genobee is a Crest loyalist and a raven>Agraya is a Crest loyalist and not actually a ravenhuh
>>22958908Tragic. You're a wagie, and there's a pretty high chance you get killed by a Raven.
>>22959026Never touched it so it may as well not exist.
>>22959043Touch it then.
>>22959026it's been a while, for me the problem is always that without servers the game is lag-prone and bullshit happens. That said it can be fun and relatively diverse in term of builds, that said getting stagered and OHKO by something still feels shitty. I would prefer if next installment is more dogfighting and less ""action""-focused where action means "glue yourself to the enemy, stagger it and combo it two times per match". Stagger doesn't really work in PvP for me.
>>22959026Stagger into OHKO becomes dull real fast, on both the giving and receiving end.
>>22959054I only like playing with myself.
>>22959062>on both the giving and receiving end"You give as hard as you receive, buddy" - V.IV Rusty, probably.
Reminder that Snail did nothing wrong.
>>22957905LIAR!!!! HACK!!! FAKE-FAN!!! You only get ONE!! And when you go to equip a second it unequips the first.
>>22959072Based and reeducated.
>>22959092holy schizo big chungus no fire on yee soul
>>22958857anon you are a mega moron, secret level comes out on dec 10, there are no early episodes, it simply comes out dec 10
>>22958857Also, 2 episodes will be released a week and there are 16 episodes, 8 week run, we also dont know the order, secret level will air dec 10 to Jan 28, the AC episode will be in this time period
>be coral>only species that can hear you is humans>and only a select few>either junkies or surgically augmented mercs, all of them fucked up to a degreelife's hard
>>22959308When I first played through AC6 I theorized early on that everyone has an Ayre and they just hide it from one another. Silly in hindsight but I thought this was gonna be the twist.Also: Do we know other species haven't made contact? Is there actually Fauna on Rubicon aside from (probably artificially bred) mealworms?
>>22959276>>22959284Well thanks for the heads-up. I just assumed since everyone acted so excited, there'd be more concise info.For all we know this could be some Rings of Power shit full of retcons and nonsensical story with DEI. I mean Keeanu has be in the new Matrix, so he is not above this stuff.
>>22959357>retcons and nonsensical story with DEI
>>22959348>Do we know other species haven't made contact?we have no indication of another sentient species being alive other than coral or even existing at all in the context of AC6, closest is AC2 ayy ruins>Is there actually Fauna on Rubiconprobably died in the fires if there was one
>>22959348That'd make for a great reality show. Lock a binch of people in a house big brother style, and tell them there's one schizo among them. They have to find out who.. plot twist, all of them are schizos and have to try and hide it. Call it Secret Schizo
>>22959348I feel like we'd know if they had actually met other species. Said species would likely be involved in the conflict since coral is extremely important and dangerous. >native rubicon lifeLeaning towards no. Maybe before the fires. But if so, they're all ashes now
>>22959372a common theory is that mealworms are native to rubicon and actually kept the coral population naturally in check until settlers consumed them as food
>>22959393We see the tubes they grow them in though. Unless they can reproduce naturally and that's just an efficient farming method
>>22959028>Agraya is a Crest loyalist and not actually a ravenI find it funny that she's no Raven but she somehow got her hands on an AC. Wonder how did that happen.
>>22959359That's because Armored Core 6 is a waste of time!>Character creator makes you select between body type A and body type B>You play as a virgin>Elden Ring's lock in system>The voice acting is impecable, you can notice most of them are black>All mini bosses have the same awful red paint job that makes them stick out and break the aesthetic of the game>Everytime they kill you they say "such inferior machinery, stick to gaming">Half of the major boses are female, you would avoid dozens of tiny enemies and then a stronger female boss will appear>The final boss is a re-skin of Radahn but voiced by a woman who reveals that he/she is true hero of the story and it's trying to protect the world from the real villain who is the comedic relief character and one of the characters that is voice by a white man>There's a reference to Ukraine War (it's very subtle)>One NPC references to Sphere Hunter>you achieve completion in less than 10 hours>NG+ barely changes the difficulty>NG++ locked behind a paywall>When you get the option to customize your mech an NPC will say "I'm glad you are proud of who you really are" after selecting a "colorful" paint job>There's a paint job for every LGBTQ+ flag and they are all free and ate already unlocked.>Amongst the rubble of the world a wall is still standing, this is a black lives matter mural.>Nearby there's an upgrades cache that will give you a skill that allows you to try and solve conflicts peacefully.>The merchants will often mention of how there's always "evil beings" stealing the lighting of more deserving people (probably a reference to how black people believe that Edison stole a black man's invention when he made the lightbulb despite this not being true)>There's a Chadwick Bozeman reference, in an old database that tells the story of an engineer that was "as fierce as a panther"There's lots of other shit Fronsoft crammed in there just to tell that they hate their audience
Old augmentation at it’s worst…
I am on my warpath to S rank all missions and gather all the parts, and some of these fucking requirements genuinely got me fucked up.
>>22959619Yeah I'm never getting that achievement.I'm never playing that stupid canyon defense mission again.
>>22959619which mission of what game? with what build?
>>22959638Silent line, think im on the 2nd mission of the 3rd zone, Im taking a break right now to chill a bit before I go on. Im switching between builds and legs cause i need to get the special permits, right now im running missile arms but im gonna have to rethink that later
Anons, I'm trying to 100% AC1 before moving onto the next game, but I'm stuck at 96%. I've got all the hidden parts (cross checked with some guides after finding them), completed all missions, beat both 9balls, and killed the white AC in that mission where you go around smashing cars. I've also defeated any other ACs that pop up in missions, so I'm honestly at a loss here.
>>22959661the solar plant? if i remember well it's just waves of MTs it's probably your ammo cost that fuck your S rankof course the plant must take minimal damage, a midweight on the lighter side with a good laser rifle should do the trick
>>22959666Are you sure you got ALL the hidden parts? you should double check that you finished all the missions especially the ones that disappear after you fail them
>>22959674It shouldnt be too difficult, but my tardy ass keeps shooting corporate property fucking me over.
>>22958199Which is the hardest AC game and why is it AC5VD because of its abysmal dogshit economy
>>22959734poor spotted
>>22959734Either 4A or LR. Release 6 had some really hard fights too, but they got lobotomized a couple patches in
I have played 8 AC gamesI have "beat" 6 of them.Of the ones I beat, I did not use cheats/abuse savestates in only AC6.I also rarely do the arena.What do I do
>>22959675Ok I guess the guide I looked at for reference was incomplete, I went through some missions with spots that I didn't check out, found a flamethrower on the blast furnace one, and remembered I never grabbed the part the briefing tells you about on the PLUS escapee mission.
>>22959756yeah, for some reason a lot of guides online are missing 1 or 2 hidden parts. Usually the generator from the PLUS program runaway
>>22959782Honestly that one was on me for first being a bitch and not even moving off the starting building on my first run, and then just forgetting they straight up tell you about it.
>>22959747What do you mean exactly? If you dont enjoy the games just dont play them?
>>22959786
>>22959747You've got 8 games to go. Also DxM I guess
>>22959785to be fair, if you havent found any hidden parts at that point you might think it was just flavor text and forget about it i completely forgot about it when i first played
>>22959790
>>22959795
>>22959806
>>22959787>>22959792Yeah I got to the white glint level in 4A a year or 2 ago and haven't played an AC game since. I just love how ACs look, I love the customization, and the music is great, but a lot of the missions in the older games are retarded, and I'm too much of a retarded scrub. Also, I never did get used to using the triggers to look up and down.
>>22959824That stops being a thing around gen 3
>>22959826Yeah I know, I played 3 and like, a few missions of nexus. Can't remember if I played SL.
>>22959348>Is there actually Fauna on Rubicon aside from (probably artificially bred) mealworms?Well, I'd argue that you still have (probably) living trees and grass and there seems to be breathable air too, so there should still be insects to pollinate flora and probably at least some small fauna (clearly not enough to even begin feeding the surviving human population) that escaped the Rubicon's inferno, none of which is visible from the player's perspective, even if just because of the scale of the gameplay.
>>22959537Because by the time of Nexus the line between AC pilots as independent mercenaries and corporate lackies was getting really blurred. Crest had their own stable of in-house AC pilots and Mirage was colluding with Ravens' Ark leadership. Plenty of pilots (probably ex-Ravens) that were happier being corporate lapdogs for better pay, comfier lifestyles, and less risk. That's what pissed Jack-O off and lead him to take over Ravens' Ark in the first place.
>>22959734I think LR's difficulty is overrated and outside of a few stupid missions, can be mostly solved with competent buildcrafting. I think AC2AA, SL, and MOA Disc 2 are among the hardest. But I played through all the PS/PS2 era games recently, (100% completion hard S-rank), so I can't fairly rank 4/4A/V/VD, which I haven't played in over 10 years.
>>22959859Every AC game is only hard on certain missions. Nobody's dying to random MTs
>>22959859LR has the most consistently hard difficulty, especially when youre playing for the first time. AC2AA has the most bullshit gotcha missions out of all of them though
>>22959876LR has a bunch of "It was a ruse! Rim Fire was hiding ubder the floornoards!" Tyoe missions which will get you good the first time around
>OP still dont have Last Raven missions guideLazy
Thoughts?
>>22959925What the fuck is this
>>22959925Oh, it’s been designed by the guy who designed the parts in pic related.It’s an interesting take, at least.
>>22959899Dont forget the classic long ass missions designed to waste your ammo going "BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE"
Trying to get my head around V.How good would be dual shotguns on light RJs?
>>22959925>>22959928>fat fetishistsBegone
>>22959935Dual shotgund are very good in 5th gen regardless of the build. That saod, always try to exploit the defense triangle
>>22959925i'm not feeling it>thickened up forearm ruin the lankey kawamori-esque feel of the original>also takes away the protruding knees of the original, which were the best aspect of that leg part>funni exposed frame greeble for no reason>imports the worst part of 5th gen aesthetics: asymmetrical leg armorthe only things that got improved are that those ugly-ass leg part front thrusters got removed, and the core part looks slightly more like a classic mirage design
>>22959925> still gets pilebunk'd by 621 anywaysucks to suck bro
>>22959925>gen 5 armor without gen 5 proportionstrash
>>22959876I don't really think LR is consistently hard, mainly because the ability to choose missions leads to some really easy playthrough possibilities (a lot of Vertex missions are piss easy, e.g. shooting the little flea MTs that try to jump onto the powerplant or the one where Alliance just sends a bunch of fighter jets at you). I will say that I played LR through an imported Nexus save and knew what I was doing with Gen 3 mechanics, whereas I can see LR absolutely bodying someone who picked it up as their first AC game with no imports. To be fair, if LR had a hard mode like AC3 and SL I would have played it through a second time on hard with no save import.
>>22959876>I guess this is it
>>22960087Doesnt LR have a hard mode like the rest? Am I misremembering?
>beat all 3 routes>pick the game up after a year of not playing it>"Man I hope I don't have too much of a hard time">build hard carrying me just deleting everythingI kind of wish I could have a bit more of a challenge but I don't want to have to start a complete new saveI died to the helicopter boss missile tracking on that early AC is rough
>>22960156>spoilerit's a maneuvering bossinstead of focusing on trying to hit it, get behind its firing arc so it just can't hit you
>>22960129No, but the lockbox is small like previous games' hard mode, so basically hard mode is the only setting. No OP-I either
>>22959824>Also, I never did get used to using the triggers to look up and down.There isn't a single game where you're forced to do this, just change the ingame controls
>>22960087>shooting the little flea MTs that try to jump onto the powerplantThat mission unironically feels tight as fuck to me and if you beat it your first try you're bullshitting
The laser blade on Keanu's AC is the BUTT/A, I've extensively looked at and compared them. What's throwing people off is the spiked elbow of the AC, and it muddies the silhouette a little. The moment you mentally purge that spike, you begin to see key parts of the BUTT/A pretty clearly.So, I'm going to engage two hypotheticals>1) The writers didn't particularly give a fuck about the left arm blade limit and just swapped them around for the sake of Keanu's character, because I believe he's left-handed in real life2) The weird little pod thing on the AC's left arm, where a blade would usually be, whatever it is, and assuming this is going to be given to us, has a mechanic that allows you to put blades on the right arm while it's equipped. What could it be? A Dork Souls style parry shield that ripostes/staggers enemies on deflecting a melee attack? A simple throwback to the shields from AC2+?
>>22960156reset your OS tuning upgrades and only pick up the "feature" unlocks like kick, weapon bays, and the core expansion slotgame feels a lot more balanced when you don't have 15% global damage buff, damage reduction, and heal kits only heal for like half of what you're used to

>>22960342>part has slightly smaller hitbox than others>GAME BREAKING BUG!!! BANNED!!!!!ok...
>>22960374What tickles me is that this is a completely irrelevant problem for every weapon that isn't a charge spam weapon, and the trade-off is that BASHO's hitbox is insanely wide in comparison to all other medium cores in exchange for being short. The only reason their weapons in the test are missing is due to recoil on the charged shot over distance. Missiles, rapid fire weapons, low recoil weapons, instant hit weapons etc. won't ever experience this supposed game breaking counter.

>>22960423Unknown Walk-On as MAAAD STOOOOMP, nobody will know who that was but everyone will love his performance
>>22960509Dafreud would kick ass. His voice has the right gravel level
>>22960527It's said that Snail commissioned a looser pilot suit for Freud, because the outline of his monstrous dong in the skintight Arquebus suits intimidated him
>>22960240I beat it on my first try. I mainly use heavy RJs and was still using sniper rifles on my first playthrough after getting WYRM-pilled in Nexus (I loaded in with a horizontal FCS so I did have to push my generator a bit). The mission is utterly trivialized by a narrow & deep FCS and long range weapon, you can pretty much just stand still and be able to hit the entire length of the powerplant tower. Although I think I did fail once on a later playthrough because I was being lazy and brought machineguns thinking I would be able to fly enough to get them all.
>>22959619S rank Silent Line was a pain, don't really remember how I did it for portable as well, I think I blocked out those memories.
>>22960485>I've seen many Ravens, the most, and you are simply... the worst, probably the worst Raven there has ever been, so sad. You're fired.
Is... This the subject for our next Experiment?>Yes, his papers say he was a Raven.Oh, so he took the usual route here.>Seems to have piled up quite a debt.Must have dashed his dreams. But, he will be reborn after this experiment.>That is, if he livesHm, you have a point there. Let's get started.
>>22960843>DonkeKongEmulation.png
>>22961025This is how 621 might have ended up with the 4th gen Coral surgery.>be a shitty merc>gain a shit ton of debt>get experimented on and receive Coral augmentation surgery>turn into a savant monster of a pilot>gain tulpa waifuHe got it good.
>>22961042My headcanon is that 621 met Iguazu before the game and eventually made it his life-goal to piss him off.At the beginning Iguazu was a normal well-adjuste individual with a steady income and a girl he intended to marry. 621 showed up and got him into gambling. Then he hustled everything out of him ruining Iguana's life. After he got wind of Iggy undergoing surgery and joining the Redguns, 621 underwent the same procedure (but payed with the money he got from Igu to make sure his was stable) and had himself set up in the "inventory" of the guy who sells to Walter. Even that transaction was part of his master-plan to track Igloo down and further ruin his Life by being a better merc, and pissing on him every chance he gets. Eventually 621's efforts culminate in Coral-release which he does not give a shit about. At the end, when Ayre pulls the trigger he is just kicking back smoking in his AC. The only reason he gets back up after is because he realizes the Igster might be around in the new Coral-based reality.
>>22961063>621 comes before 789>meaning 621 pulled the strings to take the number of another auggieDamn hustler.
>>22961063>>22961156So 621 is actually just a disguised Hustler-One who decided to relentlessly shit on Iguazu because he's an Irregular?>The Redguns, the ACs, ALLMIND... all of these were formed by ME
>>22961297Iguazu verfied. Commencing hostlities.
>>22958730>rjdigitigrade biped, like nacht legsit's easy to distinguishtry to imagine slapping the ac's buttif your hand lands on its butt, it's a regular bipedif it lands on its thigh, it's a revese joint

Uhh, what?
>>22961562Barrel stuffing is a thing
>>22961562latency
>>22960605I retract my statement and I kneelI didn't know a narrow and deep FCS would actually give you enough range to not have to fly up to get them all, gotta try that out
As a way of coping with Fauna's graduation I turned on AC6 after a long time and made a new AC.
I noticed this while going through AC1, and now in Project Phantasma too, but on some missions with more enemies shooting at you, the game starts lagging horribly on emulator. Is this ""intended"", because holy shit.
https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/aas03-ekdromoi-pack-acvi-1-100-scale-statue
>>22962681It's unavoidable. IIRC there's a mission in PP that's like an undergroukd city and can actually crash if enough enemies shoot at once
I DID, I FUCKING FINALLY S RANKED THE GODDAMN INFINITE AI MISSION. This has got to be the hardest mission to S rank out of all the games i have done. Holy fucking shit.
>>22962903Which one is that? The one in SL with respawning AI ACs?
>>22962979yea, the whole fucking day today ive been getting nothing but Bs and As. Absolutely infuriating

>>22963050It actually seems like it's a serious project, too. The creator has posted a lot of progress updates.

>>22963050eh, not a fan of a lot of the designs.Walter doesn't look stern enough, while Iguazu with black hair and Snail without glasses just feels kinda wrong

>>22963175>ageIt's never specified for any of them, other than Ziyi being young, and all the RLF characters being younger than the fires (Which was IIRC 50 years ago?). That said Coral extends your lifespan so all the early gen augs could age fucky. And Iguana is an early gen aug so he might've been frozen for a while too
>>22963079>gay bara shagging simIt's made by a straight woman (along with a guy but he's in charge of the programming, not art direction).It also has both male and female characters.
>>22963132I think walter is just smiling for that reference sheet. Here's another example of him: https://www.reddit.com/r/armoredcore/comments/1gtj60a/walters_key_pose_for_his_reveal_scene_in_amourd/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

>>22963255I like this artist's depiction
>>22963132>>22963050damn that look gayit's some fan stuff isn't it?
>>22963264Yup. And it's made by a woman so I guess that would explain the "gay" look.

>>22963132Rusty and Brute both look way too wild, and Pater looks too old. The others aren't bad. Some nice Ayres on Ayre.
>>22963359Honestly Snail in Jp audio sounds like a coke snorting guy in his twenties. Not sure where they got the ruthless elitist voice from for Snail in the localization.

I would genuinely take a bullet for Walter and unless I'm playing to do things differently I will always go Fires ending.
If the expansion doesn't have at least five RJs, five quads, and five treads, it's a flop.
>>22965449I want weapon arms to return, because weapon arms the choice for true tank chads.
>>22965449I want new legs to be conceptually as out there and outlandish as Lammergeier.
>>22965449We definetly need more alt legs, I like the idea of RJ quads, they'd have a fuck hueg EN load and next to no AP or Armour because obviously who needs that shit when you're as mobile as it gets and fast as fuck, weapon arms like >>22965460says need to come back, or some crazy shit like frame parts with a inbuilt weapons that replaces your Core Expansion(Laser Eyes, Chest Cannon) chaff and other missile defense systems like a trophy system back unit, balistic shields, more kinetic melee weapons, and another crazy idea is shit Core Expansion replacement that are limited use where once either a certian damage threshold, ammo depletion or EN bottoming out, they detach, shit like Balteus' Rig, a Mini Cataphract, a sort of wing suit that allows you to hover and manouver like the Ibis or extra Boosters in leiu of back units

>found a kit at a local shop for pic related>its almost 300€>find the same kit on aliexpress for 100€ shipping includedalright, I've never built one of these in my entire life and I am now getting a bit curious to try one. But these prices are outrageous here. How hard will I get scammed if I order one from china? Are these kinds of kits decent quality at least?
>>22965802Koto kits are notoriously harder to build than Bandai ones. They require lots of work to make them fit well, lots of sandin, some pieces might brittle. If it's your first kit ever you should start with something easier
>You're making this hard. I can hear the chief laughing...
>>22965868Like I said, I have no idea what kits are actually good or not worth the money and whatnot. The choices for buying anything here is a crapshoot so I am gonna have to look up online for anything decent. I really do like nineball design though
>>22965904If you want AC kits thek your only real option are the bandai 30MM kits, at least until you get more experience
>>22965449>>22965570>Quad legs more akin to horse legs that give you better land speed with boosted gallops
>>22965802Don't build a koto kit for a first time. Be like me and get into the hobby solely to make your graal kit beautiful and enter financial ruinYou can also commission other people to paint and build for you
is the koto gen 1 nineball kit badi heard from reviews that it's on the easier side
>>22965873>most human character in AC6 is an AI who dies on-screen in every endingdamn
>>22965918>no Centaur warrior build that isn't shitThis is all I wanted out of Tetrapod, not hovering around like a big retard
>>22966005I wouldn't call Chatty the most human
>>22965944If it's this one you are talking about, I finished it yesterday. I bought it way back, when it was still affordable. I remember there being two ludicrously small grey bits on each arm, like not even half a pinhead sized, but other than that it was okay. It was like my third model kit and I while I did cut the pieces out, I didn't give the sprew-points any further treatment like sanding, which I would have done had I known how fucking expensive this shit is nowadays.It's also not super fun to mess with, the arms tend to fall apart at the elbows because the joint plastic is harder than the slot it is inserted into, so it grinds down on the inside.In any case it is a lot of fun to build and paint. I just wouldn't want to pay a three figure price for it.
100%ed Silent Line. Game was great, the kind of great that can only come after having 3 as its base. The Story was better and the Missions ended up being more interesting as well while still being tight like 3. And holy shit there is so much gear in this game, it felt like every time I finished a mission more and more would get added. Even after I 100% it I just kept trying out new shit, making whole new builds because its so goddamn fun and the best part is that there really weren't any weapons or gear choices that were just outright dogshit for the most part. You can genuinely build whatever you want and make it work. The world of left handed weapons opening up is also a huge boon, I just love it. Overall I would say SL has to be the hardest game to beat, or 100%, from all the AC games I've played so far, but it never felt as bullshit as AC2AA felt. Also I get to dual wield flame throwers. And one of the flame throwers literally looks like cock n balls. Think I am gonna take a short break from AC for a while before I jump to gen 3.5 and hopefully I don't get whiplash from it since I've heard that next few games are much slower than SL. im mostly gonna keep bumming about in SL still trying things out before that
The episode takes place in AC6 in the perspective of the crow who impersonates 621The episode ends with the defeat of the original Raven in mission 26.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lo9rA047XwE
>>22966027Oh, wait they are gonna release him again for a non-insane price. So I'd say get him if you want, but don't expect an action figure you can swoosh around.
>>22959028Any fleshing out of Nexus to LRs storyline and world building would've been the highest kino if FS actually tried>"Zinai-- Agraya, you are in Crest's Exclusive Forces, but we do not grant you the freedom of being a Raven"She must've been Genobee/Zenobee's not-apprentice, being a "free-agent" Raven must've been a high distinction, sorta like a Berlioz and Freud thing ofc. The basic lines she's given makes her sound like a eager pawn desperate to be noticed and awarded by Crest and Genobee. Her position as a Crest agent, who'd either be stomped alongside Genobee by Mirage and the oblivious Nexus Raven, or worse, she'd beat the Nexus Raven, who'd pay back her mercy by killing Genobee down the line, plus, this demonstration of Mirage's and Nexus Raven's superiority, Crest's failings, and then, complete end of the world with all three powerhouses not able to stop the AI apocalypse, must've really mind broke her into an edgelord going into LRs story.
>>22966085she's canonically his sister, so maybe she just said fuck it and went independent to avenge him post-nexus
>>22965773Is pic related Shrieker's emblem??
>>22966042It still feels so surreal that they chose Armored fucking Core of all games to get an episode. Heck, considering Fromsoft, you would think they would go for one of their Soulsborne titles.
>>22965773>. The mech, as Keanu mentions, is called Shrieker— but that’s just a phonetic simplification of a much more awkward spelling, with much more world-changing implicationsStart theorycrrafting. Jow else could they have spelled it? She/her?Shurikan? Shao-khan?
>>22967019>It still feels so surreal that they chose Armored fucking Core of all games to get an episodewell, it's an elaborated commercial, i mean there's concord in it, so i suppose threre's more than simply the showrunners choosing somethingor maybe they chose fromsoft, because obviously it's one of the main actors of vidia scene, and took something in their catalog that was subversive or somethingman kingfield or shadow tower would have made a good show too
>>22967092Armored Core is fresh without being too niche right now and you can slap fromsofts name on it. Its the prefect choice in this case. How many people have actually played Shadow Tower?
Alright anons, confess, which one of you unleashed Schneider to design a Gundam??
>>22967530Not a fan of the face and there are other questionable design decisions, but this piece in particular makes it look a lot better. You can tell that he really wanted to make picrel again
>>22967547>jet jaguar for a third, fourth time in a rowi get that if he just made another ultraman ripoff it would've been too obvious but come on man
>>22967594Jet Jaguar? I'm not seeing it
>>22967547The face gets better, the V-fin turns into a visor.
>>22967530I definitely want those legs to be blatantly copied into Armored Core, imagine the vertical thrust with those feet jets.

>>22967655I know it's a Gundam(TM) but is it just some guy drawing or is it from a coherent media? Doesn't look like a poster MS for a new series.

>>22967795>gundam with a facehugger on it
>>22967857...hot
>>22967599jet jaguar -> jet alone -> JA 改 -> JA-02 (rebuild unit 2 uses it as armor parts, see >>22967547)
>>22967530looks like one of those hige fix turn a designs
>>22967899I'm still not seeing the resemblance though. Modern Khara design is all structural support struts and NASA mishmash addons. Jet Jaguar is just Ultraman with a helmet
Hypothetically, if they ever change the hitboxes of Basho and Jailbreak core, would they also fix the fucked Go Chen's cartridge model?
>>22968298There'sa lot of tiny fixes they could do. A lot of them are now considered MP "tech" so I don't know if they'd even want to fix them
>>22966042>The story is about the imitator of an imitator
I desire to read other anon ideas for the expansion in terms of parts. What do you want?
>>22968394More legs of every type, weapon arms, sniper rifles, back boosters, overed weapons, more orbits, melee on both arms, more shotguns and lasers, more railguns
>>22968394Shoulder weapon concepts from old games at least turned into back parts. Stuff like missile counter-measures and additional boosters.
>>22968394Like most other Anons, more legs of varying types, preferably rjs and quads. In general, I'd say that >>22968398 and >>22968404 pretty much exhausted the topic already. Now, aesthetics wise, I'd like to see more aircraft inspired designs, crossed with industrial grade machinery and then stiched together with myomer artificial muscles. Pointy heads with alien looking composite camera configurations, like the opening cinematic White Glint. Curvy, elongated structures with fins and jet exhaust nozzles protruding at odd angles that ooze primal sensuality. Loosely humanoid fighter jets tracing their unholy lineage to Kawamori, Kobayashi and Giger simultaneously. And also more quote unquote transformable designs like the LAMMERGEIER legs, I'd like to see a rj done in similar style.
>>22968436so basically more Coral parts?
>>22968443Sure, why not.
Still maintain that Destroy The Drive Block followed by Bring Down The Xylem are the best back to back missions in the entire series. I auto-pilot into Liberator exclusively for those two.
>>22967530These Gundams keep getting uglier and uglier, guess they'll never stop raping the corpse.
