Hmmm wondering if Vaati got paid. But also this is already rough, not the game, but the showcase. They really seem to be doing those live and not pre-recorded. Edit: LOL just literally reshowing the old trailers again. Edit 2: Didn't even bother to update the date at the end of the Game Awards trailer. Still just said "2023" instead of the exact date. Edit 3: The fact that this is truly live and only a week before the game launches makes me wonder if someone at Bandai Namco thought they didn't do enough advertising and are trying to cram some in at the last minute like a kid trying to write a 10 page essay the night before its due.

Stopped watching. Bandai Namco should kill the stream, pretty sure it would just turn a few people off from the game.

Getting punished hard for trying to melee is one of my core memories of AC, so I'm glad the show case is doing it too.

Bandai Namco should take some of that Tekken and Elden Ring money and invest in their advertising department a little bit...

Not sure if I'm a fan of the 3v3 multiplayer gameplay, feels like the optimal way to play is just go gang up on one player and dps them down most of the time. Feels like people will figure out the optimal loadout and just spam that.

Wouldn't it actually be a small miracle if Armored Core 6 unlocked the dark secret of "Have you tried, using teamwork in the team mode?" at all?

If it's anything like the Gundam EXVS series, the simple solution to that is to watch your teammates and not get suckered into dumb 1v1s. It will be fine, especially since if the situation is 3v1, and you harass one of the 3, it's not like your target can flat out ignore you

I meant more in terms of having more tools like chaff or a shield or something that could be used to punish enemies who tunnel vision. It's not like these are great players or the parts balance is figured out or anything, but its more the multiplayer feels rather one note so far.

I actually really wanna try doing a 1v1 fight (maybe even a 3v3 if it could be wrangled) where the ACs have no weapons, and are just using unarmed melee and boost kicks to fight

# ? Aug 19, 2023 02:06 |

At the very least we know that there are multiple shields in the game (the ones here mostly used that Pulse Shield only though), I wouldn't be surprised if there's chaff/jamming or even the return of poo poo like the Crow

3v3 kinda looks like a letdown to me. Not a fan of respawns, the meta from what we have seen seems to just be quad legs or tank legs.

Its kinda disappointing that the players were sort of jobbing to show respawn mechanics on the stream, it feels night and day compared to what we see in the Japanese special briefing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CxO8uDaHNT8&t=3784s

So I missed the stream, watching it now. I don't know what you guys are talking about, I love the awkwardness. It gives me nostalgia for how awful E3 used to be. One thing I've been kind of concerned about is that the overall health and ammo stores of any given AC seem a bit low, especially for the scale of the areas and how many enemies there seem to be. However, watching that fightincowboy dude in singleplayer being able to restart with full health and ammo at any checkpoint, which themselves seem surprisingly generous and player-friendly, makes me feel better. Sure, respawning mid-mission isn't going to get you an S-rank, but at first when you're just trying to get through the game and unlock all the missions and gear or whatever, it seems like a life saver. Mechanically it seems smart too. Like it forces you to be careful with all your resources moment-to-moment like how most From games work, but it also sidesteps the problem of the Demon's/Dark Souls style boss run slog. About PvP, I do wish there was a no-respawn elimination mode becuase that could make for some really interesting cat/mouse matches, but the infinite respawn chaotic shitshow time limit mode does seem like a great time too.

It looks like if there will be a boss, you get a free resupply with the assumption from the game that even an optimal player will have chewed through their ammo on the trash by then

Someone said on some interview (gently caress if I can remember which one) that you can only hit the highest ranking on a mission if you don't use any resupplies so that's actually true.

I don't know if that's true because you don't really have enough ammo to make it through a whole level + a boss. I think it's that using a resupply drop doesn't negatively impact your score, but respawning at a checkpoint will.
