nine-gear crow posted:I don't know if I'm just good at playing the early game of 6 or it's a testament to how well balanced the game is, but there haven't been any really "lovely" builds submitted so far. I'm actually kind of disappointed. That said, I have not recorded Chapter 2 yet, so the OppenMech could be an amazing disaster, we'll see. I'm kind of worried about how it will handle both the Sweeper though. It's got no real good angle of attack exploiting weapons for that one. The Sea Spider I am mildly less worried about. Shooting it in the face should do wonders with the weapons we have, or dropping songbirds and napalm down the hatch

Crazy Achmed posted:I'm not sure about actively trying to come up with terrible builds, i think it's just pure chaos of people picking individual bits of gear with basically no group coordination. The ones I've put forward, at any rate, aren't thought through very much beyond what i think might be fun to see in the hands of a skilled player we just need the wrecker parts from grid 086 to build THE BUS now, right? i mean there is nothing stopping the thread from coordination. we are all right here. the best coordonation we are likely to get though is people trying to make the stupidest/funniest robot for crow to pilot

I have no idea how to mechanically interpret all of the numbers and just went "that seems like an option" when choosing things. I mostly go for the aesthetics which probably also work together more mechanically because AC6 is a really well designed game.

Again, when it comes to general missions there's no real "here's some real dogshit parts that aren't gonna work" choices. Bosses on the other hand, are an entirely different beast. So if you folks who've already beaten the game and know what's coming want to start throwing wrenches into the works, start picking weapons you know are going to just plink off certain bosses and encourage others to pick similarly poorly specc'd ones as well.

if we simply choose no parts at all, and you go in full punchmech, we can't be blamed for choosing bad parts!

The Oppencore should do just fine frankly for chapter two Also I am a melee enjoyer and will almost always try to rush a melee weapon into a slot if a left side is available.

There are some pretty gnarly melee weapons that we have yet to unlock. I was going to suggest a brawler build with a laserblade, ashmead, kikaku, and maybe a shotgun and songbirds because I'm not a complete monster- but perhaps we should hold off on this gimmick until we have basho, spring chicken, a laser slicer and maybe double trouble poo poo, choosing between melee weapons is going to be hard.

I mostly go for the aesthetics which probably also work together more mechanically because AC6 is a really well designed game. For me the stat I really needed to pay attention to early on is that it turns out the 'Firearms Specialisation' stat on arms, that improves aim, is a lot less important than having heavy arms that can actually handle the recoil of the big heavy guns I'm strapping on.
|
# ? Jan 9, 2024 02:44 |

Same here. I ignored the recoil stat for a long time thinking it only mattered for like the machine guns, but it causes a lot of misses with my favorite semi auto Ranjetsus and handguns. I didn't realize I needed less firearm specialisation and more recoil control until my third playthrough
|
# ? Jan 9, 2024 03:15 |
|
Counterintuitively, recoil control does less the faster a weapon fires because it only kicks in after a 1/20th of a second delay from the last shot from either arm weapon. This means a gatling, which shoot 20 times per second, literally turns off recoil control.
|
# ? Jan 9, 2024 05:54 |

Recoil control is very easy to test in VR sim simply by firing your weapon and looking at the crosshair. If its all over to place you probably need more of it unless its a gatling or something

Running out of ammo and having to finish off a boss with punches is pretty hype, but doing a whole level that way is just kinda eh.

You probably weren't firing enough missiles. Put a 10-cell missile launcher on the back. I'd ask for another one if the rules allowed for it. As many missiles as possible.

Talbot FCS Pretty sure we are in the medium to short range with these weapons. Also I'm reminded of the clothing store of basically that name. I don't suppose we could stop being the movie Oppenheimer and be the character? Curious as to what suspenders on a mech looks like.
