DLC for AC6 that is of equal or better quality addressing the current metafagging with more parts and ways to approach AC fights making the game more varied.

also i just unlocked that famas looking energy smg in MoA look crazy strong isn't it

>>23046754
>Remember, no Russian

>>23046942
the secret for energy weapons boils down to basically
1. minmaxing the shit out of your build, using whichever generator is the strongest and whichever combination of parts that have the least energy consumption plus the option parts thar syncronize with energy weapons (damage up, gen improvements, halved en consumptionnfrom firing en weapons and so on), if necessary even ditching the blade in order to be as light and energy efficient as possible
2. realizing energy weapons are in most cases only good for saving up money on ammunition expenses, especially in gen 1 where early missions pay a pittance

>>23047096
yeah i already know the theory, it's just with quads your boosters have less down time since you can't bunny hop with them, so you get less energy

>anon complains about getting banned
>links the discord
>doxes himself

I've never played in lobbies ever since ranked came out

>>23048113
I block people that just want to run away and chip away at you from across the map like pussies. Yes.
It's fucking lame and boring.
Imagine watching dbz and every villain just back pedals and spams light ki blasts at Goku while he just chases them for fucking 12 episodes straight before he finally catches up and cyborg Frieza's them.

>>23048124
They do though.
I play with people every night that personally send me invites to join their lobbies.

You know I always thought I was a salty bitch but I haven't even considered blocking other players.

I had this idea for a thrid PvP-mode:
>Generally works like ranked
>But no actual rank, or point system
>Customizable Blacklist: Build an AC (Doesn't have to be complete) save like AC-data in that list; anyone using identical builds will just not be matched with you.
>Toggle to auto search for a new match after one without loading the garage if you don't abort. (Why isn't it like that in ranked?)
>Maybe even let's you keep the current map loaded to further reduce downtime.

Basically a free-play without having to click through lobbies for getting matches as fast as possible while denying what you consider bullshit or meta matches, where winning doesn't matter in the long-run.

This way you wouldn't ban players, but AC-setups. The people who play to win and get S-rank can have the ranked mode to themselves which works like usual so anything is fair game there, if you don't like it go to free-play and make your blacklists.

>>23048131
So the average 6 player then, damn

>>23048141
This anon gets it. Would much prefer that system to blocking, cause I doubt everyone I block is a piece of shit that deserves it. A lot of people wittingly abuse certain things so they can compete with hyper autistic japanese players for instance.
I actually never used to block and considered it gay, but From games are so incredibly badly fucking balanced despite being so fun, they changed my mind. Especially after I learned that it can actually effect matchmaking.
I'm not deluded enough anymore to kid myself that raw skill alone is gonna get me through everything, or even really truly matter at all in too many circumstances. So I essentially block people that're just gear checks for gear I'd rather drop the game than switch to.

If at least a single basic category of fighting approach is only one of the RPS choices then it's shit game design

>>23046707
More style and design diversity in parts. I'm ok if it'll mean a lot of parts will be nearly equal in specs between each other as to make the balancing easy where you'd have to balance parts as subgroups rather than individual parts

I adore 5 gen heads but I hate that they're on 5 gen fat midget designs

Can't agree, minmaxing gives them juicy DPS with respectable ammo storage, often beating most ballistic equivalents

>>23048559
>Open world Armored Frames
i genuinely think it could work, especially with a VoB to reach your mission or an heli transport
you'd just be permanently on ground and the usual mission menu would just be the same except it'd be a start menu instead of a main menu
you could also roam and take bounties on other ACs or MT piloting rebels
>EsCoreFlowne Gride game
that would be a smart move to have a small team reviving frame gride, it can share and optimize a lot of development with the AC team and could serve to focus on some mechanics like a more developed melee/shield to later incorporate into AC

>>23048559

Fuck no. That's retarded.
You'd have to add so many systems to make it worth it.
This would probably lead to spreading dev resources too thin. Then resulting in the core parts of the game we care about the most being left anaemic and unrefined, like part diversity and weapon balance.
Mission structure works perfectly for the setting.
As far as I know, being the 6 secondary I admittedly am, usually you only bring your AC out for missions. Linear, short form missions.
>drop in
>move from point A to point B
>complete the objective, usually involving the destruction of a certain target(s)
>outgun/maneuver any resistance along the way
>extract
ACs aren't typically used for relatively aimless, long form exploration. They're specialized combat equipment, and their users have to carefully consider the cost of ammunition and repairs.

Honestly, I'm considering opening the block list floodgates.

It's nice when my friends make lobbies cause then I can usually look at the player group and temporarily unblock any blockheads so I can get in. Couple of them fucked up their privacy settings seemingly, so I can't always do that though.
Bullshit it doesn't work one way.

>kinda curvy
Kinda being the key word here. Their most prominent features are angular enough for the kinda curvy details to be drowned out into irrelevance. I'd maybe (and that's a BEEG maybe) give it a pass if the arms matched the legs in curviness and pointiness.

Lmao, ac6 is the most heavily automated, least skill based of app the gens. Its the one where you are most likely to lose in the garage because there's only so much you can do to influence a match in your favor.

Perhaps it wouldn't matter if it was clear the AC wasn't customized as much as it is. That livery looks like ass. The crust and mismatched parts make it look really grody and not in an endearing way.

The fuckin game desperately needs more balance patches. Let alone more:
>parts

>>23049037
>least skill based of app the gens
Depends on the build
Melee is more viable than in gen 1-4, more relevant than in gen 5, and peak DPS output for melee is the most skill-dependent useful thing of all AC games (ACS, stagger, recovery, timing, distance, combo management, opponent reading) that is not having to be relevant on making lucky shots
Meanwhile ratting is more braindead than even in gens 2 or 4

I think this is also the issue with AC6: non-melee win is nowhere as satisfying to pull off as melee. All the people fixated on melee in AC6 are freaks of neurotransmitter release addiction or are too attentive to the finer details - cinematic duel/boss finisher nearly always looks better with melee, second are only cool or stance-needing weapons that aren't used in ratting anyway. I blame the devs for going too hard with realism and not having ranged weapon SFX and VFX exaggerated or at least done as pleasant to experience, like older gens by release order being the pecking order

>>23048306
if you want to feel vindicated, this guy also got shat on by an AC6 discord (maybe even the same one) and still made it to S rank with a light weight double melee setup.
https://youtu.be/3swUZ8Ke_6o?si=YORpMrAbJWyWbBLX
skip to 5:22 if you don’t know these techs already, and watch the beginning to see if your shitcord experience lines up with his , also maybe consider adding a quick reloading missile to your build so you keep stagger from falling off.

I can't provide constructive criticism because I'm not a visual artist. I can say however that in simple terms, it's a clusterfuck. It lacks direction, and conversely becomes a visual mismash of ideas that don't flow together into something cohesive.

>>23049238
Don't you mean Demon's Souls? Wasn't that why Sony established the Souls mines in the first place?

DeS was just a post-N64 Zeldas ripoff (peak open worlds in those) with more Berserkium involved. Froms dindu nuffin officer.

>>23049261
It was ds1, specifically PTDE, that launched fromsoft into the souls mines. Thats where the huge jump in popularity happened and the culture of it shifted completely

>>23049319
That still has nothing to do with the open world fad itself which is born from a hybrid between a dream to simulate a world and a direction in game development where developers do not want to actually make games and keep trying to find alternatives to this. Without the soul series you would still be seeing open world shit but now you are complaining about some other predominant franchise instead.

We are just going to talk past each other at this point, so lets just say I dislike open world and think its a detriment in most cases, or do you really want to go on shitposting for the next few hours?

I don't give a shit about open world. I just want good, high-tension sorties balanced around having a squad of two to three ACs cooperating together.

Remember that one NG++ mission where you and Kate fight the Cataphract and its two buddie? I just want to do things like that with other players.

But harder. That mission was a bit easy.

This will likely never happen because I imagine balancing coop missions in a build-your-own-game would be actually impossible.

>>23049896

>>23049896
>This will likely never happen because I imagine balancing coop missions in a build-your-own-game would be actually impossible.
They did it for 5th gen, i am sure its possible.

>>23049903
>>23049929
Both of those are fine options, but I'm thinking about missions designed specifically for co-op. Superbosses and raids that aren't structured in a way that a single player is expected to reasonably handle.

Making alt versions of existing missions that are co-op only would be fun. I wanna breach the Karman Line but against five times the opposition or fight the AC6 equivalent to the Psycho Gundam.

I'd be satisfied with any well-structured co-op mode. AC building heavily favors 1-on-1 PVP stuff, which is fine, but I think any difficult cooperative mode would let a lot of unusual builds shine

A co-op meta could see things like the stun bomb launcher becoming a useful team support tool. Pulse protection could become viable. Jack-of-all-trades builds that can deal with a variety of combat situations wouldn't be outclassed.

>>23050001
having a simple coop that work like gen3 consort system or the ac6 mod would be a more feasible approach, game pit you against an army with someone else only to have enough firepower to tackle the frontline
forcing coop with gameplay quirks end up being shit most of the time
and a mission where you attack a point and your buddy have to intercept reinforcements just end up being two solo missions loosely synchronized
