Are these games anything like the Souls games?

>>111808323
I remember in one of them there was a mech called White Glint that was a mercenary or something and he was being a real pain in the ass to whatever you were doing. Let's face it, it wouldn't be hard to fill in a story around that and make an ok anime, so long as the combat scenes are done really well.

ACFA was the best in the series, V was the disappointment in contrast with how the mechs basically regressed in technology.

The next logical step after FA's ending was to have battles in spaaaaace, not dinky little mechs that somehow lost the ability to fly.

Yeah, the four series actually has a pretty good storyline. The translation was really fucked up so most people just glossed over it. The stories for the 1-3 generations are decent, although I can't remember much about them since it's been quite a while since I've played them. Then the 5''s generation storyline is nothing to write home about, online is fun though.

>>111808343
Not really, although they share the whole difficultly part. They're pretty great games if you're into mecha and customization though. Lots of gameplay depth in them and 10/10 soundtracks. If you want more info you can check out the armored core general's pastebin on /vg/

>>111808487
>implying that slut was hard

>>111808713
At the end of verdict day it's kind of implied that FA happens before V, but one of the endings where the cradles fall and everything goes to shit is canon. Basically, the technology from FA is lost and that's why no more sanic speed ACs. ACVD is still a lot of fun though, I actually like the way the ACs are in V than in 4. I totally get the appeal in the 4 series ACs though.

Have to disagree with you there, I think Last Raven was the high point of the series so far. It had the perfect level of challenge for a vet, the story arcs/missions were great and the mechanics felt like they hit a sweet spot for the ps2 era games.

ACFA was good, no doubt, but I just didn't like the pacing and art direction. The story and missions were forgettable IMO.

As an aside: Silent Line takes second place and Quick Boosting was some annoying bullshit to me.

Never played an AC game. Which one should I get?
>>
>>111808323
The AC4 arc actually has a tonne of lore.

I could dump, but honestly if I were to go over anything with appropriate detail it'd take hours of typing and several brickwall posts. It's like this neo-cyberpunk intrigue storyline that reads like something out of a radicalist postmodern polisci textbook, and all of it serves entirely as just a backdrop to what is essentially a super simple 'mercenary gets caught up in something bigger than themselves and is manipulated without knowing it' plot.

One of the things that makes it so cool is that none of the setting really makes much of an impact to the personal story of the MC outside of 'this is something for me to shoot', but the actual backdrop is so insanely complex. The entire 1st half of the game has you fighting various insurgent groups, and while the hints are there, never reveals directly or explains that all of these insurgent groups are secretly proxies for one surreptitious faction that's trying to start a war under very specific pretext.

Probably the best part about it is that, canonically the MC and cast never actually learn this, and spend the entire game essentially fighting for the bad guys without ever knowing that there was actually a good or bad side to the whole conflict. You're all just drones swept up in the tides of war and don't even realize that you were the badguys until the final mission.

If the story was ever adapted, it would have to use an ensemble cast, showing the political machinations within the 6 companies. The MC's focus was far too narrow to really have a good understanding of everything that was going on in that game.
>>
>>111808323
The first game's story revolved around how these basically mega corporations ran everything and employed the Ravens to carry out jobs to do anything, like sabotaging competitors, guarding shipments etc. I forget what the end storyline for 1 was, something about bio weaponry and illegal shit going on.

It would basically be something of a mercenary story.

I don't want to play a fucking game about mechs that can fly and air-dash forever. I want the old games, where you could roll in at the speed of slow with fucking tank treads and 50 bazookas, or jump around quickly with light legs. Note that "quickly" in this instance is about 20 times slower than that horrible clusterfuck of missile spam.

>>111809717
I'd personally recommend starting with a game like AC2 or 3, then playing through the other PS2 titles like Nexus. AC1 for the PS1 was great fun for the time, but it's aged a lot and probably isn't as good today.
>>
>>111809730
The whole AC1 arc was basically muh nineball and setting up the whole idea that humanity was being ruled and manipulated by an AI intelligence way beyond us, which is a theme that carries through every single generation of AC game.

Blading was like all of the fun of the 4-series AC games, though. I came buckets when I learned they;d made blades viable in gun matches in ACfA and fucking ran that leaderboard for a while until they had that huge balance patch that slowed the game down a tonne

Why you gotta hate on the laggy bladers? Wasn't our fault the game couldn't keep up.
>>
>>111809817
Too little, too fucking late, in my opinion. You don't just systematically destroy the series over multiple iterations and then panic when you realise you've lost all your old fans along the way.

I couldn't give a fuck about squad based multiplayer, they'll probably kill the servers in a year like they did with Chromehounds, a game that did the same thing a lot better 8 years ago.
>>
>>111809782
I honestly forgot who he was and was really confused in the final mission. I don't think they directly mention who's piloting Aretha and his voice is all distorted with filters so it's hard to tell it's him.

I think it's more interesting just for the fact that Aspina had the prototype next all along and that someone was forcing Joshua into a suicide attack on the only other independent colony to exist. Also interesting because Omer's top lynx comes in to oversee the battle.

I'm implying things.
>>
>>111809831
All but outright stated I believe, except in that case it wasn't AC1. I think AC1's protag was only in that and Project Phantasma if you kept save data.

AC2's antagonist was the main character of AC: MoA.

Then you have the fun crazy sort of implication where you could import from AC3 to SL, to Nexus, to Last Raven. Made ridiculous by the idea that you survived a near apocalyptic event that you were at the FOREFRONT of in Nexus. Then you recover from that and proceed to kick every single remaining Raven's ass, most of which on OP-Intensify/Newtype bullshit without having any of that stuff yourself. Oh, and the machines built specifically to fuck up any and all Ravens as well.

ACs in V/VD are basically scrap pieces that have been put together, which is why they look the way they do. But, you eventually start to like the look of them through some weird kind of robot stockholm syndrome.
Yeah, they wanted the gameplay to be more like the past generations so they slowed it down. Kicking off walls and glide boosting are how to get airborne in that game. Or by just using reverse joint legs and jumping.

>>111809717
Try out armored core 3 if you have a PS2 or can emulate it. Give armored core For Answer a shot if you have a PS3 or 360 though.

>>111809831

>>111809839
>why you gotta hate on laggy bladers?
Because they gave me some kind of PTSD that's carried over onto ACV/VD. Blades are still viable as fuck in VD if you haven't given it a shot.

>>111809938
Omer basically forced Joshua to pilot that prototype next and to try to kill the protag of 4. I think they threatened the colony that the lived in or something.

I love AC2 on my PS2 and really like it's gameplay (maybe it was just because of the technology at the time).

But the theme of AC4A was really sick (hearing the damn menu music endlessly aside), reminded me of the epicness that was mech warrior way back when.

I can totally see it being made into a show, I don't know how animating would fit though, because you know they want to CG stuff, maybe if the entire thing was CG with non-shit looking people.

No, it's harder, way harder due to limited button on the psp

No, faggots like you think any anime that doesn't have cute girls doing cute things in a predominant capacity is shit.

I think there's a place and a time for that. Doing it to a series that deserves a somewhat serious portrayal as Ace Combat eliminates the point of doing an anime for it.

We play Ace Combat to see planes dogfighting each other and fighting fuckhuge superweapons, SW existed to give you pantyshots and WWII references in a neat new world that's somewhat unique.

Both of them fill a solid niche. They do not need to merge. And if that's the only way you'd watch an Ace Combat anime I feel sorry for you.

>Miyazaki also mentioned that he doesn’t have any collaboration titles in mind, regardless of the acquisition by Kadokawa, although he did think that the online talks of a possible Kantai Collection and Armored Core collaboration were pretty interesting.

Throw your money at Kadokawa and tell them to make an anime explaining it.
They have some experience with handling chinese 2D pictures.

God I've forgotten her name. But she was already an anime female protagonist to begin with.

That sort of thing is fine. When you start harshly shifting the setting itself to give more fanservice opportunity the way Strike Witches or Arpeggio does...well, at least do it to a new setting and not a long-running one and have it NOT be a gag/SoL version of the series.

They do, mostly from the briefings before missions and the text blurbs that describe the missions+a shitload of cutscenes in Last Raven.

3 was my first game, bitchboy. Is it so incomprehensible to you that people who liked the older games might also like the never ones? Is your head so far up your own ass that you actually believe that?

They were introducing new things in pretty much every title, though. Radically changing the way the game plays in an attempt to reach a more casual audience with flashy gameplay trailers was just stupid.

Maybe in AC3. But then it's implied the Controller was meant to malfunction around the time the Earth became habitable again to force its occupants to leave. I think the one in SL is the one that went 100% crazy. Otherwise it's mostly Nineball, who became a memetic extra boss in most games after AC1, where that applied. Later AC games are way more about the human on human conflict.
>>
>>111811410
They were introducing new things, but the core of the gameplay was still the same. There weren't any really big changes over the first 3 generations.
They radically changed styles because they wanted to. Why are you assuming that they were trying to appeal to a more casual audience? FROMSOFT has always made games that they want to make, they don't give a fuck about the casual audience.

If it makes you feel better, ACV dialed back the speed and scale. As far as I know that plays closer to previous AC games than AC4 or fA ever did.

They didn't change it permanently. They tried something new. And stuff like lag-bladers and people like you convinced them they could dial it back some. Take solace in that.

Rai-den has his own company and has a bigger cannon.
Also is a cybord vampire thunder god representing humanity.
It's like you don't want to be on the top.

>>111806765
yes, if only to see all the story/plot/character i missed from the game localizations such as

>>111811316
so why'd you keep playing them?
>>
>>111812070
>cybord vampire thunder god representing humanity
What?Its been 2 years since I played AC but did I miss something?
>>
>>111812349
No
Raiden is a cyborg vampire
Raiden is a thunder god
Raiden is a CEO for heavy arms
What's hard to miss anon?
>>
>>111812536
Where did cyborg vampire come from?
>>
>>111812677
Revengeance where Raiden's new chassis can recharge itself off of other people's repair nanopaste.

AKA he heals to full and powers himself up feeding off his enemy's blood (spines, really.)

Serious question. Who voices Nagase? More serious question. Who voices Pixy?

Because no other mecha simulator ;_;

I only heard about this series from this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y4aimv4YjT0

I was pretty disappointed when I saw the actual gameplay...
>>
>>111806765
Only if it isn't based on Gen 4. Fuck NEXT's. Armored Core V and Verdict day might make a good anime, but something on the Nexus/Last Raven line would probably be best. Get some exposure on Zinaida, Genobee and Jack-O.

>>111808806
Their walljumping and scanning mechanics added the need for extra button assignments over FA that really messed up how I played. Also,

>no friends who play ACV

;_;
>>
>>111815724
More like
>no one who play ACV

I want to fucking punch whoever though a full online game with such a niche fanbase was a good idea

>>111810478
We're talking where we fight 5 mechs including your operator, right?

Blades and 1.00 SALINEs worked out for me.
>>
>>111806765
Hell yeah I'd love to see the FA Rayleonard build raping everything and white glint doin shit

>>111814430
According to Imdb larry is either Sean Ryan or Yuri Lowenthal and karen Strassman did Nagase
>>
>>111816117
Some folks got crappy reflexes unsuitable for blading and had to play hide and grenades.

You mean running out of energy mid ep right?

Running out? Never had that problem in For Answer but you probably boost harder than I do

You are probably running FA 1.15 if I'm not mistaken,Rayleonard stuff drains so much power in AC4.
>>
>>111817750
Yeah I've been using that while testing out the other company mechs, I probably swapped out the generator with a better one for performance. The Independant rayleonard is still pretty good with some tweaks

Full CG would probably end up something like Sidonia, which wasn't that bad after the first few episodes.

Supposedly Sidonia was running on a pretty slim budget too, if there was any dosh behind the adaptation it might not be so bad.
