Is there such a thing as too many weapons on a mobile suit? What is your ideal limit?
>>
Not particularly I'm an Ork at heart so the more Guns the better If they make Heavy Arms look under-gunned they are doing the right thing
>>
>too many weapons
does not compute
>>
A rifle + a melee weapon is enough. And probably with extra head vulcans.
>>
You know you've reached too many weapons when they start calling your machine a mobile armor. That's just about the only limit they need.

That's not much of a limit, is it?
>>
>>14050386
I was under the impression the ball was a mobile worker not a mobile armor
>>
My experience with AC tells me that dual wielding a rapid fire rifle and a heavy rifle + shoulder missiles is both the minimum and maximum.

Even though ti has more weapon it is less than cluster fuck than the Unicorn.

>too many weapons
I don't seem to have this phrase in my vocabulary.

Who even came up with the idea to slap a Mobile Suit onto that backpack?
>>
>>14050353
When they're an obvious major impairment to the robot's ability to move. But you don't even need weapons to do that, just look at Xi Gundam.
>>
Tacked-on weapons are disgusting. I draw the line at shoulder cannons.

Is there such a thing as too many penises in a gangbang?
>>
When you're cramming weapons onto every possible spot on the machine, you're going too far in my book unless it's a one-off thing where they're going to discard most of the weapons as the fight goes on. I actually don't mind FA Unicorn too much, for instance, since it only has the weapons once and quickly discards them as they run dry. Something like the Thunderbolt machines or Strike Freedom, in contrast, are just laughably overdesigned.

Heavyarms Gundam is actually a good example of how to do something that's got a lot of weapons but looks good: most of the weapons are concealed, and when it runs dry it's actually even more dangerous because now it's mostly hollow and extremely light and agile.

I think it's fair game as long as the word "Mobile" still applies.
>>
>>14051340
Maybe?

>>14051251
The thunderbolt machines do discard the weapons once they go dry.
>>
>>14051441
They wouldnt need to discard anything if they discover the wonders of nuclear energy.

When all the holes are filled and you just get like 5 schmucks standing there dick in hand then yes, there is a thing such as too many penises in a gangbang.
>>
>>14050353
Yes. There is such a thing as overdesigning and clusterfucks.
Psychozaku's backpack is too much, it just comes off as if the designer said "ayy dude we need to make it like a regular zack but with more shitz in it".

How the fuck would nineball move with all that shit on? Not even human-plus/op-intensify would be able to help him.

Nine Ball isn't human. Never was.

>>14054992
Wasn't there some talk that the Thunderbolt designer was trying to fix some glaring physics issue or other with mobile suits in space by horning in all these ridiculous backpacks? I swear I remember that being a thing before it got an anime.
>>
>>14056720
No really the backpacks, but he covered the suits in verniers.
>>
>>14056734
If you lose the backpack, you'd still need to be able move.

Io uses it one time as a diversionary tactic, with the backpack as a distraction while he sneaks up on Daryl.

Real talk? Heavy Arms would be ideal.
I mean, look at those pec-cannons, those calf missiles, the sheer number of barrels. At the same time, it isn't overloaded with useless fins and backpacks. She's a beaut.
>>
The Amazing Red Warrior is a good example of where I draw the line. The requirement for me is that it has to be able to carry all the weapons without looking fucking retarded.
