How would you move the “Armored Core-Like” genre forward?
>>719540107that looks cringe as fuck, is that the new demon x machina or whatever?
>>719540236yes and you're not going to pilot a mecha but an exo suit instead, DOA
>>719540635looks like if you made a borderlands version of armoured core
>>719540236Don't listen to this mong >>719540635It's not the new Daemon x Machina
>>719540107>armored core like >Looks nothing like ACRetard
Having played the demo for the new DXM I quite like it. I can understand people being annoyed at the downgrade from mecha to power armour, but at the same time I like how the suits feel to move around in and fight. (I REALLY like the 'boost' mode, instead of just being the sliding around on the floor it's a fucking ROBOT SPRINT)It's still got all the same gear picking stuff as the previous game. The only thing that does kind of bug me is that the weapons aren't left/right fixed, you can use any weapon on any arm which sounds like it would be more useful but it actually isn't since you need to cycle through every weapon when changing, as opposed to just switching between the main and reserve for each arm.An option to lock weapons to left and right would perfect it
>>719540107I bring back turn-speed and add co-op multiplayer missions. Players can hire each other for some missions. There will be an option to align with the various corperations in the game or stay independant. Independants can take any mission but miss access to corperation exclusive parts. Those aligned get exclusive parts and extra bonus pay on some missions, but can't take missions against their corp. In some of these multiplayer missions if you bring one or more extra players other players aligned with the targeted corperation might be called in to defend. Sort of like the summon/invasion style of souls games but more structured. Make the player feel like they're in the world making impactful decisions.Basically think attack line ark/defend line ark from for answer, but everyone involved is player controlled.
>>719540824 Yeah, people just saw exo suits and started chimping out without actually looking at what the game is. It’s not even trying to be an Armored Core clone, it’s clearly doing its own thing with some shared DNA. Honestly, the smoother traversal and movement looks pretty fun, even if it's not the same scale as AC. Not every mech (or suit) game needs to be 200 tons of steel lurching around at Mach 3 with missile storms. Let it breathe.
>>719541780Looks cringe thoughbeit
My friend was shilling armored core so I played it yesterday. It was really boring, I barely noticed enemies before killing them because they blend with an environment and ui is in your face, then there's boss which I thought was a scripted loss but the game expected me to kill him despite the fact that all I've seen before is 2 hp dummies that were barely damaging me
When are we getting the zone of the enders spiritual successor
>>719541917The 2 HP dummies are cannon fodder meant to expend your resources before the boss. If you wanna be a Raven you gotta learn how to be efficient.
When are we getting the heavy gear spiritual successor
>>719540635The demo had a higher peak player count than the first game did, ever. It's probably gonna blow the first game out of the water now that it actually has an appealing game structure and isn't just armored core but doodoo.
>>719540107AC6 was peak, we just need more of that
>>719540107you go back to armored core 3 where it peaked and cut this gay jet bullshit with unlimited thrusters and actually punish retards for not managing their mech properly.
Honestly, just stop making games exactly like armored core. There's like sixteen AC clones being made right now lol, don't spend years making one just to release it during that flood. Do something that isn't just armored core or mechwarrior. Go make something based on an anime you like or whatever.
>>719542804Unfortunately the new one feels even worse to play than the first, really really awful weightless crap
>>719545908but enough of talking about AC6
it doesn't matter what they do to mecha fans because there will always be mecha fags that hate it because it's not their specific taste of mechaso I say fuck it and give it to some fucker with real vision and let them just make armored core 7 however they wantGive me Toby Fox's Armored Core
>>719540107>calling everything a "like"fucking kill yourself
>>719540107>Armored Core-Like”Do Fromdrones really think From nvented video games?
>>719541917>ui is in your faceIs that really a bad thing though?
why does every single mecha game being made after armored core 6 have mechs glide boosting on the ground why do none of them use their legs anymoreI wouldn't even mind if they moved at the same speed with the same controls but used their legs instead and boosts just for dodging
>>719546602>why does every single mecha game being made after armored core 6 have mechs glide boosting on the ground why do none of them use their legs anymorethis is not new zoomie
>>719545908>really really awful weightless crapThat sounds like it's exactly the same as the first.
"muh lack of weight" is just a buzzword find a real complaint
>>719540107give the mechs huge tits and asses
>>719542830FUCK NO
>motion blur >camera shake>acrobatics>cel shading>bloom>slomoit was over before it started
>>719546602Why not?
>>719540107add the "laugh at enemies and allies alike that think they're hot shit" option.>>719546602ever heard of this thing called MS-09 Dom? I'll introduce it to you, look at >>719548835. oh and for the record glide boosting on the ground is a thing since Armored Core 1 in vidya and Gundam 0079 lol
>>719540107I have flat shading fatigue.
>>719546078>>719546208I mean, why do you think it was put in quotes?
>>719546602I too emphasize with your pain as I lament the abandonment of leg speeds in 4th gen armored core and onwards
>>719540107My current dream Mecha game is just Everspace 2 but with Mechs. That game basically scratched every itch I had about the genre except for having to piloting a 6 DoF ship instead.
>>7195401071. Turn speed2. Manual aiming only3. Slower paced combat, less bullshit zipping by you constantly, to make manual aiming possibleBiggest problem with the last AC was that things zip around making the camera spaz out constantly to give the illusion of the fight being high-reflex but in reality it's just auto-target bullshit so the zipping around is pointless
>>719540107>slideslop
>>719540107Replace some of the stat autism with more intuitive customizable systemsFrame Gride had the right idea with the elemental ring slot that changed half of your moveset, and how AC6's legs work is a step in the right direction
>>719540107More and cooler customizationChoices effect gameplay and storyGet to romance and have sex with all of the women in the game.
>>719540107Probably experiment with some grid-based tactics system where you send ACs against other ACs then it converts into 3D armored core gameplay
>>719551880They already made Verdict Day.
>>719548467 based and redpilled. mech should be cold steel and missile racks, not jiggle physics and cameltoe. keep your horny out of the cockpit.
>>719540107>How would you move the “Armored Core-Like” genre forward?i know exactly the answer but /v/'s minds arent ready for itpic rel
>>719552197Fuck i get itAnd i fear itIt would unironically sell millions if its even of remotely comparable quality to an AC game, though
do you guys think something like armored core could have a bunch of space battles? just midair combat, no gravity faster energy regen midair, floatier as your momentum when boosting around stays for longer
How many hero shooters with mech skins has it been nowYou are niggercattle, you consume and simply exist
>>719546602Because the mechas are supposed to combine the agility of a jet fighter with the sturdiness of a tank.
Armored core but anime with gore
>>719552197If cyberconnect2 wasn't fucking stupid, they would join up with From Software, make Anthro Armored Core and sell 15 billion copies, but alas.
>>719552395Gundam games go that route. Encounters in Space is the one that usually comes up.
