Best tread design
tfw only one spread missile in VD
>>146391725
and your argument for that is?
>>146393425
It looks better than a guntank.
There's something so good about Tank Tread AC designs.
>>146394671
probably because AC Tank Tread looks like a modern tank? Guntak treads apperas as somekind of light tank from WWII, small, not very long, and some of them even have the tread completly exposed, that gives a "no armor" look, meanwhile AC tank tread are like a heavy-medium tank, with heavy armor, long tread and you can feel they can push everthing in their way, like in V intro.

Any ideas on what build is good to beat Nobless in the attack Arteria Capals mission? Weapons?
>>146396718
Plus the core and upper body of AC doesn't usually stick out.
Like so>>146398526
>>146399142
oh yeah, the upper body blends better too.
and for Nobless, if you want the easy way, doble motorcobra, or kojima cannons since he wont try to dodge the attack when entering the area, just go and stand infront of his path. If you want to have fun, missiless and rifles in a light-mid weight.
>>146399689
>If you want fun use rifles and missiles
Huh

Man this game is fun.
Where can I get moonlights though?
>>146406397
I think you get it after defeating Shinkai in the arena, for that you need to complete the game once, in the second run go for the ORCA ending, once you join ORCA you can fight him.
>>146392224
There are 2 spread missiles, and high speed missile makes them irrelevant.
>>146399142
His only threat is the laser cannons, pack on TE defense and grenades. You can also catch him on the only to the battle with Kojima weapons (since he rushes straight in), but that's only for COWARDS.
Answerer is Interesting. Trying the same old build with WG1, and should I stick with a rifle or something with a higher firing rate? Mostly tuned to reduce energy used up when flying and additional KP/Rectification, and had shoulder units to help quick boost better. Is a blade recommended or should I just use shit that can blast away?
Those missiles keep hitting me hard is my only issue. Energy is more easier to manage with more Points.
>>146407085
Well shit, I locked myself out until next run.
>>146410067
if it is your first time, dont worry, you NEED to complete the game once to access the other endings.
>>146410067
Flares are your friends.
Aim for the arms, or for the spikes on the bottom, the thing can't dodge so pack on as heavy hitting weapons as you can. Bazookas and grenades are nice. It's more of a damage race.
>>146410067
since the missiles are from above, pack some vertical flares.
>expect an empty friend request
Goddammit Ahab you just made me spit my Mountain Dew all over my Doritos.
>>146410232
I already did Collared, and finished their rankings, I just forgot that they block you from order matches every time post act 4 meaning I need to do it on Reset or something unless I have to do Ulna again to join orca.
>>146410259
>flares useful
Oh shit. Thanks anon. Yeah I'm hitting those sections, it's just not getting murdered when getting close.
>>146411147
You need to do the ORCA arena which is only available during ORCA path.
>>146412304
Ah. I already got to Hari before being locked, so I'll just redo the path once I've finished first time.
Night /acg/.
Wow, i go to sleep and next thing i know, dead thread.

Just use that laser blade.
Would anyone like to play for answer? I've started playing online the past few days, and each player has been pretty cool. PS3 lobby up, if anyone wants to join.
>>146435380
still there?
>>146437435
Still hosting, although I'm not always around the console.
I hope you voted out, sheild.
You know what would have be a good addition?
If during the fight aginst WG, Nine Ball appeared on hard mode, it would be fun to fight two of coolest ACs.
Ok, comfy games 1vs1 games.
Also any tips on building a shotgun build?
Great games B+. What were those large explosives I kept running into? The ones that'd do about 1/3 of my health? It was funny seeing AP drop when they hit me.
>>146443727
I've never used shotguns in this game, besides slug guns. All I can figure out is a (somewhat) lowdrain frame, high kp output for over boosting, and slug guns. KP is the more important part, I think
>>146444243
grenades my friend.

But my oh my look at that pound go. Hope he'll be all right.
>>146447667
I always thought the heads based on the middle design looked pretty cool. Too bad they mostly suck.
>>146456126
The top head is by far my favorite head in the 5 universe.
Good night /acg/
>>146458014
it's a shame that it sucks. There are so few good heads in VD, really.
>>146461902
>>146456126
Middle design head is the best head in ACV and the other version (HF-227) is one of the better heads in ACVD.
The only viable heads in ACVD are HF-227, Umegae, the highest defense CE head, C15/Marcus Fischer, Sealeye and the one high camera TE head.
>>146462592
The KAGERO and the max def heads for both KE and TE (Starlight and Sakaki? also have their uses, if rarely.
>>146447667
I fucking love Galahad head.

Trying to beat attack in arteria cranium
>>146480994
>arteria cranium
Since you already have Wynne, I think you cant do co-op for that, in any case we can give you build tips for it.
>>146481667
As far as I know you can coop any mission, even if it contains a wingman. You can coop carpals right?
Also, FA (and AC in general) is missing some huge 4v4 battles with a ton of Normals and AFs thrown in. I would have loved a huge mayhem fight like that.
>>146481667
Nah I'm referring to orca, not defend.
>>146482891
I'm having an issue when over Armor/bomb blast thing to work despite mashing buttons they activate it.
>>146484810
Check your Overbooster.
You also need to have a white PA bar.
>>146484810
Then stop mashing buttons. Equip an assault capable OB, and press the weapon change buttons first before pressing the OB button, as doing it the other way will make you zoom off into the distance.
>>146485718
>there is assault versions
Least most descriptions have it. Never noticed since I only changed OB's recently to match some enemy AC.
>>146485848
I only really noticed when I was doing an Order Match and it never popped up when I did it regularly.
What do I do with all this money now that it's worthless man?
>>146488146
Absolutely nothing.
>>146488203
Not even spend it on hookers and blow?
>>146488783
No.
Sorry /acg/ I ignored you for two days and you died.
Would a high speed Y11-LATONA frame benefit from reverse joints?
>>146409335
>TE defense
This is FA, anon
>>146432373
Cool image, too bad this is the most impractical corporate AC in the entire game.
>>146462592
Swallowtail is the best looking head in VD, even though it doesn't really go with anything. Is it good?
>>146494104
Maybe, most lightweight parts benefit from reverse joints. The Lahire core arguably compliments reverse joints the best, though. Just and fyi, the Rayleonard legs cost way too much energy for RJs
>>146494674
True, I've done LAIHRE+Reverse, I'm mostly trying a medium light craft, LAIHRE too paper thin.
>trying a defunct company instead of the superior Algebra legs
It doesn't extent capacity for that build, though I like both the jet knees and reverse, guess I alternate
Anyone up to fight?
>>146496003
Game?
>>146496070
For answer PS3.
Never tried online, might as well.
>>146496153
All right, getting on.
PSN starts timing out, hold on.
What online settings do you guys use?
Hey? Wake up?
>>146497684
You mean like the lobby settings? I go ten minutes, no respawn, limited ammo, regulation 1.40, and I randomly pick the map each match. Anything else is for fags.
>>146494424
Best hacking speed if I remember right, but considering that hacking is a subpar strategy, that doesn't really account for much. I think it also has a high KE defense.
>>146500365
Also server?
I'm a Brit, but in unsure if everyone else is Na so I will pick majority.
Other than the one anon who accepted, who else is interested?
>>146501000
Honestly, I don't think the region you pick matters for anything. I think it's just a way of showing where you're from so people can draw preconceived notions about lag.
It's set, player match, open lobby, Europe.
>>146502225
>tfw not at home for the weekend
>booted off of PSN
Man what is wrong with my internet. Thanks anyway anon. Any tips?
>>146503047
Well, you seem to have the basics down.
You know how to Quick Turn?
You seemed to not know on our first fight.
>>146503286
No, I do not.
Man that first fight I forgot I hard the Blue chip, but I suck usually.
Can I trade your schematics at some point? Other than the Reverse Latona and the tank and a third I got nothing much else.
>>146503640
Quick Turn is just QB while turning the camera and not touching the left stick. It, well, quickly turns you.
You can also drift turn in FA, but personally I'm more annoyed by it as I keep doing it on accident when using CQB weaponry.
>>146503640
Sure, i guess i can trade my schematics.
Don't expect anything special from a rookie, though.
>>146452045
I'm starting to miss that queer.
I got a room up for ACLR PPSSPP if anyone is interested in a match.
I wanna test some stuff for the most part.
>>146504773
You know what, I just might. PPSSPP is recognizing the controller I have plugged in.
Right now, my biggest problem is setting controls. Should I use the defaults and then remap PPSSPP's input reads or should I try to change them in game?
>>146507330
I remapped the PPSSPP input read so I could fire both left and right arms more comfortably since the PSP itself lacks buttons for my PS2 setup
So I guess if someone didn't do that I'd have some sort of advantage.
>>146507667
>disarm is a five button combination
Any helpful advice on the matter?
>>146508380
Its a lie.
Its Strafe Buttons + Camera Buttons + ToBePurgedWeaponButton
>>146508605
So by default it would be
Hold R1+L1+Triangle+Circle theb press Any D-pad button
Up being Right Arm
Down being Left Arm
I forget if either Left or Right was the Extension button.
Its easier to purge than in the PS2 thats for sure albeit more difficult than in 4 or V
>>146508781
Oh.
Thats still a five button combination whoops.
>>146508781
I find it hard to believe it's easier than in the PS2 when the PS2 is just hold triangle and fire the weapon you want to drop.
But I think I have everything set up. Navigating menus is weird and my hardware isn't quite up to snuff, and I don't know how to join an online lobby, but it seems to all work.
I've set up the FA Europe room again if anyone's interested before I D/C
>>146509456
You just go to "Connection" in the title screen, load your save and then search/make a room.
Oh man, I almost lost to Ska. That's embarrassing.
>>146509728
Is the lobby still up? It's telling me that it's unable to find a lobby.
Oh huh its supposed to be.
I had tested it just a little bit earlier.
Try making a room however maybe its something on my side.
So is 4 and 5 online dead entirely? As in "you can't connect to anyone too bad shithead" or just as in "you can only free battle"?
I really want to experience ACV maps in PVP.
>>146510263
All right, I made one. 3-J.
>>146510409
4 is P2P, so you can still play other people. However, the server it used to distribute patches is down, so you can't get updates. But nobody plays 4 online anyway.
V's server is down, so you can only play other people via free battle.
>>146510191
Also are you using the "Last Raven PPSSPP Package" that was thrown here in the past?
I've gotten it working online out of the box earlier and there might be configurations that are different.
>>146510532
Hm no sell though.
Like I just wrote are you using the package thing?
Are the Network settings similar to the one in my image?
>>146510796
Yeah, mine looks just like that and I used the package that was provided for us. I'm sure I managed to screw something up, though.
I know my firewall was bugging me, but I told it to allow PPSSPP, so I don't think it's that.
>>146510982
Ports maybe.
Do you know how to set a Internal DMZ on the router?
If yours even allow for the option that is.
>>146511056
>Do you know how to set a Internal DMZ on the router?
I have literally no idea what any of that means outside of "router."
Well, unless DMZ means Demilitarized Zone, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't in this context.
>>146510532
Thanks senpai.
That's what I assumed, except for the patch part with 4, that's kind of a bummer. Can you play all maps in Free Battle in 5?
Because I think I have to buy that game just for story content and maybe I can even convince you to wreck me in FBs a couple times
>>146511138
Thats exactly what it means in this context.
It basically a "Open every port" option for the specific internal IP address for your network
Sort of a way to brute force when you don't wanna find out exact what ports whatever application you're using uses.
>>146511138
Actually, it does.
>In computer security, a DMZ or demilitarized zone (sometimes referred to as a perimeter network) is a physical or logical subnetwork that contains and exposes an organization's external-facing services to a usually larger and untrusted network, usually the Internet. The purpose of a DMZ is to add an additional layer of security to an organization's local area network (LAN); an external network node only has direct access to equipment in the DMZ, rather than any other part of the network.
>>146511179
Yeah, all...eight of them? Was it eight?
Well, there are some maps that show up in the story that don't get used for free battle, but the maps that were used in conquest are there and that's what matters most.
Just be sure you get the right version of the game. Even in free battle, NA connects to NA, EU connects to EU, and JP connects to JP. I'm pretty sure.
>>146511261
>>146511374
Wait, really? Heck, I was just trying to be funny.
So I need to log in to the router and root around then?
>4 is dead forever
Fuck why did I buy this 8 years late.
Gonna buy VD at some point. I really need to.
>>146510532
>>146511539
Most likely.
I'm operating on the assumption that I can host and you can't join however.
The issue might be that I can't host.
Although I was able to specifically join someone I play with earlier so I think thats out of question.
>>146511539
So I have to dig up an NA copy then? Well shit, I guess I can't find that in my local vidya store. But it shouldn't be too much of a problem I guess
>>146511862
If you have an NA PSN account, I'm pretty sure V is on the store for cheap. Amazon also seems to have copies for pretty cheap.
>>146511813
Anything in particular I should be looking for?
>>146512264
Thats a router I haven't dealt with.
But it says the router model there so here.
http://www.linksys.com/us/support-article?articleNum=140747
>>146512264
Wait, scratch that. There's literally a DMZ label.
>>146512387
Hey, that's helpful too.
So, should I set the destination to IP or MAC? Intuition is telling me IP and to look up my IP address then set it to that.
>>146512780
INTERNAL IP
Its a variation of 192.168.X.X
Its going to be tied to your MAC address on some other page of the router. I'd guess the Status maybe? Any place that shows every computer that is connected to your router.
>>146512264
Might have to look up how to set up foreign accounts then, that'll also let me keep playing VD if Vagrant Guns ever dies
wait...is this for real....the thread is having...a real discussion? about the games? no shit posting, no bumps, no waifus, but the real thing?
>>146512969
>>146512437
I also just retested and apparently it wasn't working until i restarted my PPSSPP
I'm rehosting the room now so give it a shot.
>>146513437
ACG Tech Support edition.
>>146513537
>>146512969
Okay, hopefully I set it right. Still no dice on lobbies, so I've set one up.
>>146513412
It's pretty easy. Make a new user on your PS3 and when setting up the new PSN account just say you're in the U.S. It might ask you for some other specific bullcrap, but you can just make stuff up. Looking it up might not be a bad idea, there might be something specific you can take advantage of that I don't know about. Then you can access the NA PSN store and once you buy something from it, you can install it on any user on the PS3.
You don't have to worry about VD, it's mostly region free. You just have to not get a JP copy.
>>146513846
Have you restarted PPSSPP after enabling the DMZ?
Can't see the game yet.
Also just a reminder to turn the DMZ off after we're done with this either if we get it working or not.
>>146514118
Yeah, after I enabled DMZ I closed PPSSPP and fired it back up. I'm thinking of rebooting the computer at this point.
Also, does it matter whether I'm using PPSSPP or PPSSPP64?
>>146514232
I'm using PPSSPP64 the person I tested it with also used that version so I'm not sure if the regular version works online.
>>146514454
I am also using 64, so I guess that's not the issue.
Unfortunately, I just ran out of time, so we'll have to try this again another day. Thanks for bearing with me.
>>146514694
Oh well can't be helped.
All things done aren't a waste anyway might have been needed to get it working with anyone else you might play with.
Does FA get any players outside of us anymore?
>>146515810
Seems ded whenever I check.
>>146515810
Sometimes we'll pick up a random or two, but it's really rare.
So I've played 4 though to VD and loved them. Saw AC2 a shop for a couple of quid and got it. What exactly am I in for having never played the early ones and my only experience to anything before 4 is a tiny bit of AC3 on psp.
>>146515810
We don't need anyone outside of us. We're a self-sustaining community.
>>146517047
A much more fluid, less twitchy game. PS2 area games are more about grace and position than reaction time, since there is no high boost and you can't hover in the air.
Otherwise, most of the mechanics are the same. AC2 doesn't have L-arm weapons though.
>>146510982
Make sure you change your mac address at least once to randomize it, and that you have an exception for ppssppwin64.exe in your windows firewall.
>>146519085
I mean change the mac address setting in PPSSPP at least once
>>146518165
This is a comfy thought. Thanks penny
You guys still on PPSSPP? I could go for a few matches.
>>146461902
It may suck, but I use it a lot for the coolness factor.
stop making these threads, the scene is dead
>>146530871
>the scene is dead
and that will stops ous, why?
>>146530871
We should do what the Metroid community does. Instead of making petitions and crying about the series dying, we should work on, or seek out, fangames for the series. Maybe some other mech games that fit the niche.
I can't tell you how excited I am for Metroid 2: The Unofficial remake. And a guy was making an Armored Core fan title a while back. I forget if he scrapped it or not.
>>146398526
Holy shit, that looks good.
>>146446310
I think stumble the other way around is more traumatic. Webm related
>>146511758
Yeah, it's kinda weird to play without patches. OB is useless.
>>146536842
Vass you are still alive.

Wouldn't mind WADs and something like Moding an older title. Maybe latter comes with a PC release.
>>146555745

I could barely find PS3 ones outside Amazon as well.
Used Cex, found a fourth gen in Waltham cross, found VD in fucking Camden and the rest are in different cities.
I'm just going to pirate.
>>146566152
There's a small second hand game shop in Lincoln called Gotham games, they had 2 and 3. Owner is pretty decent and they get some rare shit. They had a fucking steel battalion set, controller and all at one point. But yeah otherwise I check CeX, eBay and Amazon. Can't find anything after silent line still. I collected 4 thought to VD across a few years.
Anyone got any of the art books? There's so many I don't know where to start but want to pick up a few of them.

You gotta combine em. But a little more info would be appreciated, what game are you even talking about?
>>146574918
VD. Playing a med bipedal but most the parts are a mismatch of resistances for style.
Also I like carrying a sniper cannon, even though bipedals are shite for it and I dump it as soon as anything gets too close.
>>146575160
Use weapon arms and trade some defense for speed. That way you can hanger the sniper cannon without purging. I recommend the missile, AS missile or laser cannon ones.
>>146573715
Where's my PS4 port? scholar of the first sin was that for 2, where's the Victory edition for VD(yeah I know it's the expansion but it would be an interesting idea).
Really? Man that sucks since I don't think I've heard it in PvP/order matches.
>>146576935
Thanks, I'll give it a try and see what I can come up with.
Where were you when This thread's AP is at 10%?

I like the other ones particles and glow effects a lot better, and that sound that plays when you turn on boosters is kinda annoying. Both look really cool though.
You don't happen to know the songused there, do you?
>>146583834
Nah, I have several this one in particular is super fashion but not massively viable.
>>146585794
If you wanna get the most out of an SC on a biped, you should consider the stat that affects ready position defense buffs because that can make a huge difference. Maybe consider a Heavy Biped even. Set up on a building overlooking a big area with someone in front of you and pop some shots. You can go into ready position and fire pretty quickly.
If you get flanked use missile arms, those will tear lightweights a new one. You can even afford running the 250 lock range missile FCS cause SCs don't lock anyway.
Next to the SC I'd probably put either a KE shield or a melee weapon for keks and cause I love physical blades, but that's far from ideal. You could just take a gat or something else general-purpose. Maybe an X00-SAWA for it's disposability and damage potential when single-wielded.

Probably. Mary Shelley would have torn Lilium apart easily.
Ambient is still a cooler AC than Prometheus though.

They got hit pretty hard in 4, but they survived and are still around by the end of FA, although not as dominant as they once were. The only factions destroyed in FA are Line Ark (and even then, not specifically) and ORCA depending on path. Oh, and fucking everything if you play Destruction of course.
Anyone got Gifs of the Corporations's logos or something?
>>146594337
Granted you're fighting Strayed. Destruction path and Destroy White Glint.
But then even Wong comments that she pales in comparison.
>>146594626
Yeah, they didn't merge like Akvavit and GAE(TORUS) and Leonemeccanica with Melies(interior union) or dissolve(Rayleonard).
Dammit, we were counting on you!Here's a shitty gif
>>146595397
Worst, they became bitchbois of GA America and Omer
>>146599551
>>146600379
What? They actively fight GA America in FA, with the outcome depending on which of the arms forts Strayed destroys.
And OMER kinda outjewed all the other companies anyway, so they're not alone in that regard.
I wanna build an AS missile arm or regular missile arm Murakumo lightweight, so I can consistently be credit to team even if there's no melee opportunities. In theory it all sounds fine and dandy, I won't have much armor anyway and I can still very much evade lockboxes if I take Tokonatsu. Any issues in practice I need to watch out for?also if someone could link me to the ACVD build maker on the Japanese site that would be much appreciated
>>146600743
They while not being a subsidiary like Cougar or MSAC, they had to join their group to even rebuilt,and yet they still aren't as strong.
OMER are top jews, even look up the uses of their name.If you don't like these or have better quallity ones, please ask me if you want me to stop
Bump.

>You shall count for yourselves -- from the day after the Shabbat, from the day when you bring the Omer of the waving -- seven Shabbats, they shall be complete. Until the day after the seventh sabbath you shall count, fifty days... -Leviticus 23:15-16
>According to the Torah (Lev. 23:15), we are obligated to count the days from Passover to Shavu'ot. This period is known as the Counting of the Omer. An omer is a unit of measure. On the second day of Passover, in the days of the Temple, an omer of barley was cut down and brought to the Temple as an offering. This grain offering was referred to as the Omer.
Nice social commentary there From, kek.
after 3, a bunch of the games also have psp ports, are these better to emulate than ps2? I only know Last Raven is apparently really good.

Mary Shelly's strategy was all about coming out of nowhere and striking where you don't expect. Part of that means not being a top-ranked lynx so you can slip under the radar.

>Part of that means not being a top-ranked lynx so you can slip under the radar.
She was rank 5 though. Also an Original.
>>146611373
>>146611634
Same with how Hari was like Rank 11 but could dual as a registered Collared and ORCA member(Thermidor had to moonlight, and Shinkai left rankings post Lynx War), and his tactics are described as similar.
>>146606639
They control a little weirder (solved if you just remap controls) but generally run faster and have more content. They're also in widescreen instead of full screen.
The PSP emulator is way better than the PS2 emulator though, so that's a big reason to go with them.
I've finished these shitty gifs if anyone's interested.
I'll resize them eventually. Really only ones which were weird was the boxed ones and ORCA being my first attempted one.It's too late to do anything.

Say what is this general's favourite Corp animation?
>>146615058
Line ark is always fresh
>>146612560
Cheers anon, Omer is the only one which needs touching I think
Favourite animation is either Rosenthal or Torus.
>>146600743
You've forgotten the mission where BFF sends you to protect the Sphere now in Omer's hands. And then Omer sends you to destroy Motherwill. Btw Motherwill is everything BFF was against, their ethos was always simplicity and precision. Motherwill was a clusterfuck and a bastard born from GA meddling with BFF.
BFF died in the Lynx War
How much bonus defense do you get from going into ready position in VD when using the shielded legs? I know it's not worth it for multiplayer, but I'm thinking over some new fun builds for singleplayer.
These GA goons just showed up to intercept you in the middle of a mission. What do you do?
Keep in mind, these niggas are piloting top of the line Normal suits and are backed up by a Lynx War era mobile fortress.
>>146612560
TORUS for me.
>>146538756

We lost so much potencial thanks to the lynx war.
>>146567330
arent those in the OP?
>>146573715
>>146584301
Is this somekind of fan project? or is just practice with Unreal using AC to make it a little more fun?
>>146620650
The Deflection Bonus in the leg stat multiplies your defense
so if you have 1800 KE and 200 deflection, you have 3600 KE.
>>146623852
Noted, thanks.
So I just attempted a random mission using only ready weapons. I got BTFO, but it was some of the most fun I've had in VD in a while now. I'm going to keep working at this and make a good build for it.
Any weapon/build suggestions? I took the autocannon for fast/flying/weak enemies, and used a regular cannon for big enemies. I may need to upgrade to a sniper cannon for better range/accuracy. I mostly got rekt because I tried using a lightweight build so I may have to increase my defenses more.
>>146624216
Sniping is the best way to do ready position, because ready position weapons can out-range most enemies, and it's harder to flank at a distance. Sniper cannons, rail cannons, laser cannons, etc.
The whole thing is about making sure you can't be flanked (such as backing up to the edge of the area or getting inside a corner) or can out-range the opponent (fighting beyond 300m).
Probably the most solid ready position build is a KE/TE Flame leg build with heat cannon weapon arms, with a laser cannon on one hand and a gatling gun on the other, using to 250 range FCS and the 851 camera performance head. Permacharge laser cannon on a balanced generator, chip away 3000-5000 AP off of anything light that approaches, and then bust out with glide boost and heat cannons as soon as they think they're close enough to avoid the laser cannon..
>>146624863
The sniper does seem to be the most viable thing, but it's also the most boring. I had the most fun zipping around in a lightweight and trying to outmaneuver enemies, then quickly set up my autocannon and drill into them. Unfortunately it's not a very viable strategy for actually winning.
Maybe if I build a shield UNAC to act as a decoy and use other utilities for me, I can figure out a way to have fun with the more unconventional weapons in VD. I'm done for tonight, I'll mess with it more later.
Only played AC2, AC2:AA, AC3(100%), AC:LR, and AC:SL. Are the PS3 games different, and are any of the games must-miss?
>>146628491
4 and 4A are way faster in every sense and tuning makes a big difference, then V and VD slow and scale it back down to where you can use buildings as cover and kick off walls
think of 4/4A as gundam wing or SEED and V/VD as 08th MS team
>>146628491
The games are vastly different, but the 5th gen plays closer to the older ones in style, and the 4th gen plays closer in terms of mechanics.
AC4 is alright, it's extremely pretty to look at and stylistic, but has very little content. Most missions are 30 seconds long or less, it's very dumbed-down and disappointing coming off of LR.
ACFA is the same as AC4, but refined with a much nicer plot and many more part options. Less pretty though.
ACV is probably the most forgettable. It has a few interesting characters and some really nice visuals. However, it requires online play to tune weapon (and the servers are down) and has a lot of bugs and other issues.
ACVD is the most similar to the PS2 games

Thank you both, I think I'll try ACVD next.
>>146633503
For Answer is also really good. That and VD are the best of the "modern" ACs. It also has more singleplayer content while VD suffers from the multiplayer focus. VD still has a pretty decent singleplayer though and is all around really fun to play.

But you don't have to destroy motherwill, right? I agree though, BFF experienced a huge drop in quality after the events of ac4.
>>146620650
Ay yo hol up
What if I told you the meta is actually pretty weak in teams because you can cover each others weaknesses
And what if I told you you can dominate in a ready-position heavy as long as somebody watches your flanks
That defense bonus is actually kinda ridiculous if you build for it. Think about it, 6000+ TE, 3000+ KE, 4000+ CE. You block anything that's not a ready-position weapon itself, a melee weapon, or maybe a SAWA. But if somebody fires a saws at you that shot is still wasted.
Ready-Heavy can absorb so much fire it's ridiculous. Back up with sentry guns for even more distraction and let your team stay behind you and pick people off who close in.
