I know I have neglected my duties. I'm sorry for that. However everyone must do their part from now on. Aristo and B+ranker plus some heroic anons can't do this alone. If we don't stay strong till an announcement, the best general will be doomed and it will be a sad day for videogames.

>If you don't keep this one alive your waifu will die.What waifu?
>>129199269
My waifu dies if thread dies, eh?
In that case, bump.
Mr. President, we can't let the AC thread die! What do we do?
>>129216379
Kill Ravens and bump.
>>129216379
That's simply Jody, We will bump it and that's because I am the President of the United States.
What is the situation of mecha games right now? what are the most mecha-centric games that are coming and how do they look? will they save the genre? Does FROM really need to send out our savior to save the genre? Will they finally give it some publicity with the money they have now?
>>129225772
I don't think AC will ever get the luxury it deserves.
>new thread dies instantly
Bump again.

>from would rather put out a comic to their overrated meme series than give Armored Core a chance
RRREEEEEEEEEEE
My waifu is safe now.
>>129245602
Fucking hell.
>>129245602
They're commissioning someone to do it, either because they thought it would be cool or because someone pitched it to them and they liked the idea.
Calm down m8, this is nothing worth getting autistic over.
>>129199269
>>129199269
Noooo I can't let my waifu die!
>>129225772
Mech games are ded but when is that USA versus JP mech battle.
>>129245602
Well that's how franchise milking goes, expect a souls anime soon Penny pooh.
http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm22951418/videoExplorer
remember an AC anime already exists....it just needs to be completed.
>>129245602
Ah, remember when there was rumours of an Armored Core anime
>>129254528
Yes! YES! You can't let her die goy...I mean, Aristo
>>129258160
We'll be fine /acg/ is kinda like Eric himself, we can't be killed.
>>129261191
So eeverytime we get destroyed, /vg/ gets better?
>>129265597
For our survival, /vg/ has to.
Thinking about getting into AC, have some questions.
1) Friend who recommended I play the series said I should start by trying 3. The pastebin doesn't mention anything about AC3 under the "where do I start" section. Would that work as a good place to start or should I skip it for Nexus?
2) So from what I understand the AC devs are also the souls devs. Does this series have a similar level of difficulty/challenge to those?
>>129268019
>1)3 is a good place to start in the series and i recommend it more then the Nexus start but play the games in order, you can skip ninebreaker since that one is just training exercises in it.
>2)Yeah, the devs are same but the only game in the series that are truly difficult is Last Raven, 4, FA
>>129245602
Since I haven't play DS the only thing this could represent is that FROM is willing to make extra material for his game, if they ver make AC6 a reality, we could get a manga or anime. I just hope it won't be a direct adaption of the game since it will kill the usual silent protagonist.
>>129254528
Could that fight inspire a surge on mecha related things?
>>129233107
>File name
Pic relatedgrant us eyes.
>>129265597
How does that works?
>>129269121
>only game in the series that are truly difficult is Last Raven, 4, FA
>Truly difficult
>FA
Xezberzs please, don't lie to anon like that, only Carpals is worth mentioning.
>>129271219
I can only hope it does in some way or another. The PR stunt was pretty successful but I always doubted how well the actual fight will proceed.
>>129273342
I hope they go for the more flashy direction, since if they go pragmatical, the fight will be really quick.
>>129273993
Imagine AC chess for mobile phones.Old King is the King
>>129274413
mah nigga.
I've been wondering for a while, does anyone know if there's a link somewhere to the scrapped AC4 opening that everyone's talking about?
From what I've heard, it featured Noblesse Oblige, and the Normal ACs were actually just mechas from the AC3 generation.
>>129274413
AC:chess LR edition
Evangel is the bishop, Jack is the knight and Zinaida as my QUUUUEEEEEN. As for pawns they'll be played by nameless ravens.
>>129275080
Yeah its pretty much that just look harder insides the tubes of the interweb. Also its more like a concept trailer for the name and as you know a lot of things didn't make it to AC4.
>>129275080
this?

>>129199269
but my waifu is already death.
>>129271219
>Could that fight inspire a surge on mecha related things?
That or it could kill it, depending on if it's really boring.
>>129279695
Now I am scared.
Night, survive another day.
>>129279572
Not sure what to say to you Anon.
>>129279695
>>129281351
Well it depends just look at robot wars it can be fun at times.
>>129282068
Rest well my sweet Ranker.
>>129281351
>>129282256
I want it to be good, but I doubt they'll actually allow them to go at it. All that money invested after all.. Itll probably be something dumb like a paintball competition.
>>129284763
The actual thing they're piloting probably don't have any movable joints. They'll just be like big awkward tanks.
AHAB AHAB! THE NEW ACI UPDATE GO CHECK WHAT'S IN IT.>mfw hybrid parts L....
Rise /acg/
give some advice to a soulfag new to Armored Core series please
esp. Armored Core Vyfw ctrl+f /acg/ like 12 hrs ago yet only to find animal cross shit
>>129293871
Try not to associate V era with the previous games and learn to min max your defenses.
>>129294231
>min max
explain pls, or should I just read the pastebin
>>129294826
Read it first and get some idea of how the V era system works. Then play the game test things out with test modo and get a feel of things.
>>129295220
appreciateddo you play demon's souls or bloodborne? Does ACV has inherent glitch which can be exploited like these 2 games?
>>129295376
Unfortunately I never played any of the souls or bb games. However do come back and ask once you get a feel of ACV.
>>129295376
V's most significant glitch was fixed years ago and you haven't unlocked the weapons it pertained to.
The most important thing is to pay attention to the attack values of your weapons and the defense values of your targets.
>>129297726
>the weapons it pertained to
so it's not a ver 1.00 glitch
oi mates, has anyone here played Astebreed? Was looking through the shmups on psn and it was listed there, looks kind of cool.
Kind of.
bump2
>this general
Here's a pity bump from someone who just wants a new game announced. Fuck dark souls.
bump3
>>129285968
This.
Even more when nips want melee combat, it would be two awkward tanks getting close to each other and just one poke and one falls. I really hope they go for a really flashy show.
>>129295376
V more annoying glitch is fixed, servers are down so play the game for the campaign and to get parts to import to VD.I have only play BB.
>>129299039
>gif
WHAT THAT HELL IS THAT?
>>129299039
I've played it. It's really anime-ish, and I dont know if I'd consider that a positive. I'd play the game on mute if I were you. Other than that, it's a pretty solid 2d/3d shmup.
>>129271219
>How does that works?
Well, in practice modo the biped you fight against is none other than Eric.
>>129320202
No I mean the part that each time a /acg/ dies /vg/ gets better
live.
>>129325332
Hell, I don't know, ask Aristo
Bump again.
bump.
Watching this makes me want to invest time into ACI, even though I can't tell what's happening for most of the video.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LVPYOlxBMjQ
>>129338394
Ask Sabbath for info.
Since people ITT like Armored Core and Ace Combat, did you ever enjoy series that are like a cross between them? You know, like Battletech.
>>129341229
If there were anybody else within a hundred miles who played Battletech, I'd consider getting into it because I had fun with MechWarrior.
Unless you meant Robotech, which I hear had a fun game. There's also supposed to be plenty of fun Macross games that'll never leave Japan.
>>129299000
Honestly, I don't know if the glitch was in 1.00 or not. I didn't stumble on it until some time after the first patch.
bump
>>129325332
Honestly Ranker I really don't know either. However we can always hope that /vg/ will be a better place.
>>129338394
Oh Reiko and his Have Blue but he's actually crazy enough to take it to TDM. Hypervial also has one that's similar to Reiko's but he hasn't been on for a while now.
Anyhow ACI is a F2P game where you can grind your soul away and have some fun at times.
>>129339748
We have to create a standard for calling him, it's Sabbath or Aristo.
>>129338394
Damn, looks so good. How late am I if I jump in?
>>129348221
Just call him Risto.
And you're extremely late. The deathmatch event ended and you don't want to do deathmatch anyway.
>>129338394
>novice controls
How disgusting.
>>129348221
Aristo or risto is fine I just never changed the name I use on /acg/ to keep team Sabbath alive in a way. Now like Ahab said its kinda late for TDM but for regular co-op its never too late to start the game. I made 2 alt accounts last august and now they're all fairy queens with level 15 vanilla morgans.
>idolm@ster colab time again
Start now Vass if you want animu emblemsI wanna do terrible things to Anzu...like getting her a job.
>>129348535
Ahab but have blue isn't a real fighter so novice controls are OK!
>almost 7m credits for Adler
any thoughts or comments on that Ahab?
Wait a minute...*this isn't /ksg/
I think this is the wrong thread my man

You know what would be cool? A manga or comic of the National Dismantlement War. The originals and shit.
>>129387305
The comics endswith the final fight against the nations, Anatolias merc was there and was shot down by Berlioz, then Fiona finds him
