look i made a robot

man, you guys make this game sound fun. I'm gonna trade some stuff and try to pick this up on saturday.

I've done almost 20 missions so far and one story mission

I've got a basic medium biped with a battle rifle, rifle, and a shotgun

also some shoulder missiles

I've managed to S rank a bunch of the early missions and AC battles

clearly i am skilled

man fuck

the game really punishes you in story for using tank legs

first the train then the chief of police

can't efficiently boost or maintain high spped for veyr long? INSTANTLY DIE NOW PLZ

but yeah veef around order mission 50 they start to not be laughably easy

also it appears team level 50 has unlocked evertyhing, very sad

joviwan you better not try it on goddamn ps3

that said zak and i will be returning it and getting it later cause we're too busy atm

so maybe hold off until ac5 round two

ie the round where i have a non-mobile phone internet connection

Yeah, the story is more friendly to mobile guys

But tanks rule multi lol

tanks get ruled by effective snipers

but becuase they are low mobility and low energy, they just slow the game down because they keep hiding to recharge then popping out

i kinda wish the tank legs were less like past ac tank legs and just hildolfr

ie instead of fucking hovering 80% of the time (lol tracks useless) and using boost to get decent speed, they'd be tanks that ride the treads most of the time at high speed, but suck at turning unless they're motionless or braking, and use boost for vertical agility

because making them slow but heavily armed = GAME IS SLOW

that said most players don't seem to know and just charge you and die but whatevs

ciws rendering missiles totally useless how do you feel

Man those lightning snake things count as missiles

I was so happy I almost cried

oh does CIWS ruin missiles?

I've been going into test mode to check out all the weapons

haven't tried out the other leg types yet

i really like the wall jump gimmick

you get kind of a cool rhythm gaining altitude as you quick boost and jump through clusters of buildings


so i was fighting that yellow tank guy and he made his way through the ravine

and i went up on the edges of the cliff and shot down at him but he was pretty good at tracking me

shit was keen

Ciws only works the way you're facing and only in combat mode

Otherwise its like a fucking disco called 'immune to missiles'
It seems to shoot some bigger cannon shells too but they could just be really slow missiles

i swear i shot down missiles with my rifle

hey what if they had like chaff pods like Patlabor

or beam shields like Gundam

I have to admit the first time I was fronted with missiles in ACV I tried shooting them down with my gun like I did in ACFA

That didn't work out so well.

I'm still using my AC classic skills of trying to boost towards them to screw up their angle of attack

or hiding behind buildings

I think it does work
Some missiles are even targetable

But yeah shields would be nice

Badguys have shields

are you fucking kidding me

also my favourite moment in multi so far is charging head on at some guy with a tank AC with 2 autocannons and getting close enough to kill him with a piledriver just as my armour dropped below 1000

it was rad

I haven't had any unlocks from 50-55 and nothing in the player store is higher than second gen
Whxih is a bit of a shame

My favorite multi moment was telling Zak

DON'T LET HIM TOUCH YOU

And then watching Zak charge at him and be instantly killed by a pile driver

i did a bunch of territory missions earlier to grind SIMJEN SUPREMECY up to 59 and nothing unlocked either

maybe at level 60 i hope but i can't be fucked doing any more tonight

also a bunch of them got the EMERGENCY INTERRUPT and the other team joined the game

that was pretty cool

We should have enough points for another conquest by now

my robot is less shitty now yay

I don't own a PS3, so problem solved

I can wait. No one else I know will ever touch armored core anyway.

What is your gmt-+ stark?
