>cool robots>female pilots in skintight plugsuits>pvp>fucking dies despite the beta tests being massively popularwhat happened to mecha break?
>>729178939Mecha will never be popular, unfortunately.
>>729178939>pvpI have enough of this in real life
>pvpIt's all just so tiring.
>pvpThats what killed it.You might be angry about carebears but its the truth.
>>729179246>>729179450>>729179483well, how come you didn't buy megaton musashi either?
>>729179606I did. I also bought 13 Sentinels.
>>729178939>female pilots in skintight plugsuitsTotal coomer death!
>>729178939Mecha is just a doomed genre, it will never go mainstream. The closest it ever got was Evangelion, but that wasn't even mecha, and most people were there for the hot 14 year-old redhead.
>>729179843you don't like evangelion?
>>729178939>pvpHere's the problem
>>729179843JUST STOP LIKING TITILATION OKAY?! ONLY SUPPORT MY FUCKING TOP DOWN RTS WAR SIMULATOR AND AUTISTIC DAYJOB GAMES!
how would you fix the game?
>>729180603remove the bots from matchmakingremove the retarded restriction on linux clients, they already whitelisted steam deck hardware for god's sake
>>729180603Furry women
I only play for my weekly pve mashmak, sell everything I get and buy the occasional outfit that I like. I got burnt outfrom playing the beta too much and from being forced to pick aquila in normal mashmak
>>729179843TSMT
>>729178939Normies can't handle mecha. It's a fantastic mecha game, but it'll never have mass appeal despite how well it's made. I'd say the only thing the game really lacks is map variety.
>>729178939because the devs are pants on head retarded when it comes to balance and it killed the game
pure princesses and huge mechas make me hard
>>729180878Based
>>729178939>Make thread about mecha game>Instead of showing the mecha you show a whoreOk
>>729178939I wasn't interested in the PvP aspect honestly.
Small dev or indie pvp games are a hard fucking gamble. Since by its very nature you need player population which means you have to tear people away from whatever game they're playing to play yours instead. It's a fun game but couldn't tear me away to get good at it.
the cooleset part of a mech is the cockpit. if your game doesn't have first person then its a shit mech game
I want it to get better, I really do. It had potential
>>729178939Unless it can grow itself a big e-sports scene, pvp games die off pretty fast.
>>729178939>wasted their time in the spotlight to come back later with a worse version of the same game>pushing PvPvE extraction mode nobody wanted
>>729178939Devs ignored everything people enjoyed about the first beta, went all in on a completely god awful extraction mode and left the entire game infested by bots. Even when the player count was healthy, 9/10 matches were against bots and thoroughly unenjoyable. You also get punished for leaving a bot match.Oh, and they removed most rewards from regular PvP matches including the paints which are the main way to customize your mech. They then put those paints into the extraction mode exclusively and let people trade them for real money cash shop currency.
>>729180603Remove bots Kill MashmakIntroduce pick/ban
who thought that bots in every match was a good idea? at least mark them as bots in TF2
>>729178939Too much competition. Eventually people go back to whatever everyone else/their friends are playing. If you're making an online multiplayer game there's very little chance it's not going to die within a year.
I had to uninstall, game is dead...very sad
>>729181173Mecha is different than traditional mech games though. First person in Mecha would be absolute pain.
>>729182679they did a first person gundam game on the dreamcast, that was way ahead of its time
hehe, let's blend angels, knights, beetles and other animals together!
>>729181173there's a first person cockpit mode in the zone of the enders 2 remaster, and it's unplayable
>>729180603add more pve levels and mech customization. nerf
>>729182679>>729182818thats cool and all but i wanna focus on the enemy and not my huge cockpit flying around like the metallic demon i was.rip narukami
bump
post ass
I'm going to take a wild guess and say once it was released, sticker shock for all the coomer outfits was too high / gacha too scummy to hold any interest past the initial, "SEXY GIRLS IN GIANT ROBOTS!" lick.
>>729183219might get strike suit zero, its on sale for $4
>>729178939looks boring
>>729178939Should've made it anime-style. Also, Seasun is more concerned with Snowbreak than with this game I guess.
>>729183628looks neat
>>729178939mecha break was fucking dogshit with literally no skill elementit's an armored core 6 clone which removed any of the skill-based elements of AC6 PvP (ie. dodging enemy shots) and replaced with chinkmutt MOBA mechanics
>>729178939the game was fun but repetitive
lil bro thinks AC6 invented mecha pvp
>>729184126the extraction mode was awful if you weren't using a flyer, the 3v3 mode gave basically no rewards and with just a handful of mechs and maps the main mode was just too samey
>>729183815spamming all skills when available...
>>729178939They SLAUGHTERED my main Skyraider after the 1st beta and never fixed him.
>>729185052What do you have to hide?
>>729178939Didn't this have some awful monetization at launch that pissed a lot of people off?
>>729185109Nothing at all, officer.
>>729178939I hope it can be saved. The gameplay is actually extremely fun and the mecha designs are cool, and there's so few good mecha games to begin with.
>>729178939Because all the devs of all these mecha games apparently get brain damage along the way and instead of just doing a good mecha game first and foremost, they try to reinvent the wheel and mix in a bunch of shit no one really wants or cares about. Like you can say AC6 only sold decent because it's Fromsoft, but it also has the advantage that the main gameplay is just - you built your mecha and do the pve mecha mission. There aren't even character cutscenes or anything, because it's unnecessary, saving a lot on the scope and feature creep that can be put into more mecha, and Fromsoft is not a small studio. Meanwhile much smaller studios:>Mechabreak>full-on yank character creation and walking around the base with unlockable fanservice rooms, which no one really cares about, because the character design and customization looks like cheap korean mobile slop>all game modes pvp with what was supposed to be the main one being pvpve extraction slop on a gigantic map with bosses most players will never really experience because it's pvp extraction slop that was getting metagamed and farmed to hell like 3 days after release>connected to bad auction house and really dogshit monetization and I don't even mean because it was overpriced (and it definitely was), but because there were like 3 different shops with different rules on when what was where available, so you needed to figure out what to get to unlock the thing to unlock the item you actually want to have, where the most expensive one (the unique pilot pack) doesn't even mesh with the rest of the character customization >all the in-game currency you earned gets reset to 0 each "season", because that's what a mecha game needed>Daemon X Machina>Remember how Anthem flopped? Neither did these devs so you are now piloting a iron man suit through that but lower quality, featuring the most barebones yank open world in existence with all the shortfalls of that shit (like gathering resources in a MECHA game)etc.
I unlocked some colors, that's it

>>729185467>full-on yank character creation and walking around the base with unlockable fanservice rooms, which no one really cares about, because the character design and customization looks like cheap korean mobile sloplol reminds me of eve online
>>729178939>pvpthis is why its dead, pvp is for zoomers and faggots
>>729185757why it's not on ps5?
>>729185467>which no one really cares aboutBut all people do is post pictures of their "cheap korean mobile slop" characters.
>>729178939Had I ever heard of this I might have tried it out.
>>729185949Don't know.
>>729185235No P2W but cosmetics are VERY expensive and it loves to shove them in your face.
>>729187218Isn't one of them a whole ass suite to watch your pilot pole dance and shit?

>>729178939>https://youtu.be/OieuIaaBByY?si=dRGTsFKb71XP8bd6this game has a stripclub btw, but nobody knows this because no one played the game
>>729178939The gameplay is dogshit
>>729178939Coomers move on, they're secondariesOnce they get done jerking it they move to the next thing
>>729178939the robot designs didn't interest me as much and it was some kind of extraction hero shooter royale slop by the World of Tanks people, it was radioactive and I would not touch it
>>729178939>what happened to mecha break?Coomshit doesn't stop your game from being shit.
the problem is they waited too long after the second beta and people lost interestthey focused too much on extraction mode instead of making as many different 6v6 maps as possible, or doing larger gamemodes like 12v12 which people would actually enjoy despite not being competitivetoo much focus on competitive ranked 6v6slop in general, with lobbies full of bots and inflated rankings to the point where the ladder didn't really start until GMand the game looks like a p2w gacha even though it's not and the cosmetic system is pretty fair
>>729189410But anon, what about muh seggs sells and go woke go broke?
>>729178939>what happened to mecha break?It needs crossovers to survive.
>>729189410>>729189516>game is genuinely good but the characters have chinese gacha proportions and people get pattern recognitionhuh
>>729183584ok
>>729189453Them adding a chaotic 12v12 clusterfuck would probably make me come back. I like the gameplay but at the highest tiers its just too sweaty for me, it's not fun at that point.
>>729189637>characters have chinese gacha proportionsNone of these niggas come from "cal arts, but china" school of sameface like mihoyo games, wuthering waves, blue protocol, etc.
