As a veteran that started playing over 20 years ago, you hit the nail on the head when it came to the short 5 min missions compared to the long ones. I’d hate it if they got rid of the short ones all together. As a Bungie employee once said… “it’s all about capturing that 30 seconds of fun, over and over again”
I want to give a shoutout to many Armored Core content creators, because they deserve a lot of love for their efforts after all the years and specially since this franchise will get more popular (this includes you, Iron Pinneapple, Oroboro, Zentreya, Fightincowboy and VaatiVidya): - The Lore Hunter - Silver Glint - AesirAesthetics - Armoredcorelore - Love_Arc - Sinclair Lore - Anatolia's Mercenary - MrHappy1227 (though he is more focused on Final Fantasy) - Rubicon Dogs - Zealous (Znote) - Cleric - FromCheng - Writing on Games - Above Average Gaming
I first played Armored Core just over 20 years ago and I can't remember the last time I played ANY Armored Core. It might have been close to then. But somehow this game feels like the exact progression of everything I expected the game to be. In a good way. Im old... this game is super nostalgic somehow. Did FromSoft just drop a GoTY on us? Is FromSoft the new Death Row records?
I'm not a fromsoft games player. I'm not a mech enthusiast. I'm not even a single player or action game player. But I do love fighting games, and, especially when fighting humanoid acs, it feels like a 3d fighting game. It's amazing. I'm a fan for life now.
Yeah, there are feints, animation cancels, fakeouts, whiffs and clutch moments. Fighting game techniques can work here if you remember to also take into account of the maneuvers on a 3D plane.
Same here, my main concern was about the smaller enemies meaning the main enjoyment of the game comes solely from bosses to the point where the lead up would t be that enjoyable. The other is how I feel like the reliance on switching up parts to beat a boss feels more like you are choosing the parts that were designed to win, less about me actually beating the boss solely due to my own decisionmaking
@@thebulletkin8393I've beat the game and let me tell you that you can essentially beat every boss with whatever build you want. There's just build that are more effective to certain bosses but everything still works if you have a playstyle you prefer
From a technical perspective this is easily From's strongest launch to date. No crashes, lag, framedrops, works perfect on Linux out the box. Very impressive, especially considering their track record.
although I do feel like this is going to be a bit of a debatable one considering also Boulder Gate 3 and Final Fantasy 15, tears of the Kingdom and one or two others we will wait and see this free for all go to me I'm probably going to lean towards Starfield even though it kind of feels a bit at least likely@@coereyw
I'm so bad at this game. It took me 6 tries to beat the tutorial boss...but once i figured it out, it was very satisfying. I'm looking forward to progressing. Love this gem.
I feel it needed to be a bit drab in the foreground in order to make sure you could see all of the other visual noise on your display and around you. I can't imagine keeping up with this game with horizon level colors, textures, and physics going crazy in the enviroment. The mechs, backgrounds, set pieces, all look amazing. Not to mention holding a solid fps with enemies like balteus
@@justinmcguffey1060 basically lol, I just finished up chapter 3 last night, that fight was super fun, and very cool, kinda wish it was a little longer but I’m not sure how that would’ve worked out
dual plasma missile (or cannons one you unlock them) + dual plasma rifles if you wanna melt the big boi bosses like Balteus :) I wouldn't be surprised if it gets nerfed because of how good Nebula is in pve and pvp lol
Balteus and Ibes fights I believe to me where the hardest fights so far. But the weapon from the end of chapter 3 helps, use 2 of them and duel miniguns and it rips any opponent apart
They used to hide parts in game with unique perks not many but a few. If so be sure to look around those maps on missions. If they didn't well that would be a bummer i loved finding them hidden around.
Man this game just had to drop the same week my fall semester starts. But I've been ready for the past decade brotha! Yet the longest wait of all Is these few hours leading to launch
fr, I don't know where to start, just finished Remnant 2 (still missing hardcore) and haven't even started Baldur's Gate.. There there's this coming out in half an hour, Lies of P in September, Lords of the Fallen coming in October.. it's insane
The simple addition of the "Contextual Help" button. should make this game of the year on its own. every game should adopt this. This needs to be industry standard shit right here. The whole game is great, BUT THAT BUTTON IS A GAME CHANGER! You look at a generator and wonder, "What does {energy weapon spec} actually do? is it just more dmg?" Turns out, it also heavily affects charge speed! It even clarifies that it doesn't apply to plasma missiles because they don't charge. Now thats good shit right there! 9.8/10 User Interface (and thats just because i dont believe in perfect scores!)
Slight error in this review. There is the OS system that you can update, and it's kind of like a skill tree. So there IS something beyond just the skills of the player and building unlocked parts otherwise. I feel like that should be touched on. It does get mentioned later, but for those who would tune out to soon would miss this fun fact. It is a replacement of the skill tree bit, but done in a very good way.
Mechassault 2 was best Mechassault. You still have the MechWarrior games and 6 officially unofficially was announced. I think after 6 the license goes back to Microsoft. That would be the only hope we could have of a Mechassault 3.
As a Day 1 veteran of AC this is absolutely a great entry into the series. It's far and above the quality of V and Verdict Day. I still have a fondness for AC:Silent Line being my favorite in the series but this MAY surpass it.
I got to say even if the game isn’t the best at graphics it’s pretty darn good still. I’m already on my game + on it I love this game my ac is build to be round about all purpose. Can move fast enough to make it count but tough enough to last and mix of weapons mostly around mid to close range. Also just getting good after many hours of stress lol
What an unbelievably good game this is. The movement and the flow is some of the smoothest ive ever played. Gameplay is so good that i dont even pay attention to the story anymore. I hope this game finally gets the recognition it deserves.
Definitely a niche game. Probably only satisfies veterans of armored core. Watched enough now to know the game looks lame af but that's only my opinion. Enjoy your robot seizure inducer.
I disagree I think the movement is seriously lacking this is after meeting the first boss in the game the mobility and movement just feels lacking with a boost bar but I've never played any previous armored core so that may be how it's always been but I'm not sure it's for me feeling slow in a mech as opposed to actually being able to dash about constantly and fly almost indefinitely
You guys have to at least unlock some of the parts from doing arena which is early game, especially the kick. Also, at least beat chapter 1 boss. I think that's when the game truly begins.
I only playes Armored Core when I was still single digits in age 20 years ago with the OG game. AC6 is a different beast entirely in a good way and lets me inject my mech combat addiction directly into my veins
Even the credits mission have hidden information in them. The devs don't waste missions. And yes, the cleanup mission has hidden information that make you realize things.
I loved the PS2 era of AC games AC3 and Silent Line being my favs but after playing the PS3 era AC games i didn't like them it was wayyyy too different from the previous games...This one looks more like the PS3 era that's unfortunate but i might try it once it goes on sale...Man i miss them AC games on PS2 (i still have all 7 games for it).
I will say this game was so well optimized. I went in expecting my mid rig to hardly keep 60fps but not once have i dipped or crashed. Only real issue (and this my not even be the game) is a bit of input lag for controller
Everyone constantly be comparing it with all this “souls-like” bs. Honestly I’m glad it has little to nothing to do with souls. I’ve played every AC game and was a Raven before the whole Souls generation took over. I’m glad AC stands on its own as an outstanding game and the Souls generation can learn to step outside of that mentality and rediscover the AC franchise.
This game reminds me of a more hardcore version of ratchet and clank. You find power in unlocking sick ass weapons and there’s no stat upgrading just gaining currency and unlocking weapons and armor and completing missions. R&C is more story driven and caters to the casual then AC caters to the hardcore gamer. Then how successful you are depends on your movement and weapon choices which R&C also depends on but to a lesser degree. As a person who grew up with ratchet and clank and loved them all but have never played armored core until now I can say this game is amazing it is just what I wanted as an adult gamer who enjoys shooting games and a challenge.
Im a Vet ive played all gens of AC except gen 4 and it took me a lil under 72hrs of gameplay to nearly platinum the game besides S ranking all sorties. Either way where AC6 is today i love it, while i miss a few things from previous series i still think the games amazing n im glad to have it back
As a vet, its different from what I'm expecting mainly because of how the game seems dead set on forcing me on close quarters encounters when I play most AC games from afar.
I know the game is quite short so I've been tossing up whether to get it. I finally just caved and bought it. Hopefully it's fun enough for a couple playthroughs.
I guess there's an attempt to try and bring it back with the first games remake. Hopefully it sells well enough to show there's interest for more mainline games
I was so hyped for this since I love armored core 5, but this is just way too hard for me. Nothing wrong with the game though, I just wish it had co op so I could get help with some of the bosses. 😥
Lol, you have options on how many mech designs you can save. Me loving my 1 design and only changing weapons based if I'm inside or outside for a mission
I had heard that the story was lacking, but the way you compared the story telling to ace combat tells me what they meant. It also tells me the story isn’t lacking
I'm only just through to chapter 2, but so far I'm finding the snippets of story really compelling. There are characters I hate (Snail), factions I'm rooting for and disappointed when I have to go on a mission against, and intrigue which I won't spoil. In typical From style the story is fragmented and relies on you putting those fragments into a coherent order, but in many ways it's much more explicit than Dark Souls and only marginally less explicit than Sekiro.
I see alot comments of people who saying they're getting bored to death. People nowadays have the attention span of a goldfish 😂😂😂. It's extremely difficult but I know I'll get better as i put some more hours in.
or a cosplay action simulator where you can build a mech based on fav childhood times favorite animated series like beast wars, transformers, gundam etc
This game had great potential but due to lack of dificulty settings i gaved it one star on ps. You have single player game with no options to make it easier.
Im new to AC aswell..i wont rubbish it cause i think its pretty cool..but idk just not feeling it with this, interest started dropping off after 2nd chapter for some reason..i might pick it up again at a later time,but at the moment its just gonna sit in my library as a unfinished project.
Nerf bolteaus. Cant beat him and i own everything availbe from the shop. A rank that stupid wall mission easy. Cant beat bolteaus... i havent been thia discouraged since my ex wife threw out suikoden 2 new in packaging
this game is all i wanted for about 10 years since GunZ the Duel died, insanely fast, impressive, very fast in response movement that just feels so real and versatile... just like in GunZ, which i loved for years when i played and dedicated myself to be one of the best in european scene... brings back that old struggle i was so addicted to, and obviously, overcomming this challange, whatever fromsoft cooked for me, ill take it without questions i dont care how this game looks if its fast, unforgiving, action packed mech game with dashing, bouncing, flying over, swooping, slashing, sniping, bombaring and blasting with rocket missless - im fucking sold on day one
Having a lot of fun with the game, but yes my only kinda complaint would be the world design. I don't need hyper realistic graphics, the graphical fidelity present is fine, but after a while I felt the game lost my interest visually. Im not an AC player, this is my first one, so I realize that may be a hallmark of the series and something longtime fans appreciate.
💥💥 This seemed like a old school game review from back in the day when game review channels used to be good like IGN GameSpot etc did you used to work for IGN?
I had to get it refunded. The game itself is AMAZING. There is nothing wrong with it at all. I was so hyped up for it since I loved armored core 5. I’m just absolutely terrible at it. I hit a wall with Balteus and it gets me way too frustrated and angry. I’ve attempted changing my build a few times but I don’t think it matters when I’m really bad at the game. If it had co op, I would enjoy it as much as I enjoyed Elden Ring. Despite loving Armored Core 5, maybe this is just not for me. 😥
Somebody broke their non-disclosure agreement a week ago on RUclips and that video got pulled. I-Ready had pre-ordered it and I was almost regretting it because of how buggy the game looked. There must have been a super early version of it because I not encountered a single one of those bugs.

I love how you said it's a brutally honest review and then you say its a must play game. Maybe you should look up the definition of brutally honest.
As a Day 1 veteran of AC this is absolutely a great entry into the series. It's far and above the quality of V and Verdict Day. I still have a fondness for AC:Silent Line being my favorite in the series but this MAY surpass it.

Different genre, but I'd love if AC6 succeeds well enough to bring Front Mission back to the US.
I guess there's an attempt to try and bring it back with the first games remake. Hopefully it sells well enough to show there's interest for more mainline games
The game really does what it can to teach the skills you need for the bosses even if some of the bosses are jerks...sea spider
Jerks don't like dual shoty, shoulder cannon combos. Keep that jerk staggered.
I got by him 3rd try with an 8900 or 9200 AP jumpy reverse joint boi. Dual plasma missiles, shotgun, pulse blade. Dodge a lot.

Paid n downloaded! Just waiting for me to get home after delivering mail all day! Empty house tonight also! Theater sound and projector on!
For PvP: is everything unlocked at the beginning, or do I have to play the campaign?
From what I have heard is no. You need to unlock things via the campaign and arena
I’ve also heard that you unlock PvP sometime during the second chapter of the game, but take that with a grain of salt
You unlock PvP in Ch2, but you need to go about unlocking all your parts still.
Over here patiently waiting for Lord's of the Fallen and Elden Ring DLC. Hope everyone enjoys this one though.

Probably people stuck at the first chapter. Story is not ground breaking, but definitively serviceable. Beside, its story was never the major draw.

So how hard is it to beat it guys?
This game had great potential but due to lack of dificulty settings i gaved it one star on ps. You have single player game with no options to make it easier.
Im new to AC aswell..i wont rubbish it cause i think its pretty cool..but idk just not feeling it with this, interest started dropping off after 2nd chapter for some reason..i might pick it up again at a later time,but at the moment its just gonna sit in my library as a unfinished project.
Souls games are like Armored Core not the other way. Armored Core was long before the first Souls game.
You have done a superb gameplay video here. Mind if I
share it in a Gaming leaderboards discord I created with some friends?
I for one welcome the dystopian setting.
Its Zone of the Enders in its fullest form. Its great.
Great video!
Nerf bolteaus. Cant beat him and i own everything availbe from the shop. A rank that stupid wall mission easy. Cant beat bolteaus... i havent been thia discouraged since my ex wife threw out suikoden 2 new in packaging
this game is all i wanted for about 10 years since GunZ the Duel died, insanely fast, impressive, very fast in response movement that just feels so real and versatile... just like in GunZ, which i loved for years when i played and dedicated myself to be one of the best in european scene... brings back that old struggle i was so addicted to, and obviously, overcomming this challange, whatever fromsoft cooked for me, ill take it without questions i dont care how this game looks if its fast, unforgiving, action packed mech game with dashing, bouncing, flying over, swooping, slashing, sniping, bombaring and blasting with rocket missless - im fucking sold on day one
Wall running dungeon crawler shooter. Was great too bad about the sequel being an entirely different genera of game.
Another good one was xteel.
Having a lot of fun with the game, but yes my only kinda complaint would be the world design. I don't need hyper realistic graphics, the graphical fidelity present is fine, but after a while I felt the game lost my interest visually. Im not an AC player, this is my first one, so I realize that may be a hallmark of the series and something longtime fans appreciate.
💥💥 This seemed like a old school game review from back in the day when game review channels used to be good like IGN GameSpot etc did you used to work for IGN?
When is the sequel game to armored core 6 coming out
I had to get it refunded. The game itself is AMAZING. There is nothing wrong with it at all. I was so hyped up for it since I loved armored core 5. I’m just absolutely terrible at it. I hit a wall with Balteus and it gets me way too frustrated and angry. I’ve attempted changing my build a few times but I don’t think it matters when I’m really bad at the game. If it had co op, I would enjoy it as much as I enjoyed Elden Ring. Despite loving Armored Core 5, maybe this is just not for me. 😥
You're on Balteus already? Whoa.
Fast 🫡
To be fair that balteus fight was a bullshit difficulty spike. Many players struggled vs it, veterans and newbies alike.
bubble gun and melee weapons. keep up the pressure. try to get ABOVE him in phase 2 to avoid all the flame stuff. I had to take a break and come back.
Since I'm not getting titanfall 3 anytime soon. I may need to get this to fill my mech suit itch.
I haven’t played this game since the first one but I ordered my Xbox X and I’m eagerly waiting to get it on
If bosses are the penultimate combat experience is there an ultimate combat experience?
Stomping the grunt units and feeling like a God as they stand no chance.
The PVP.
How many chapters are there
the second i heard FROM SOFTWARE i knew its a must buy i mean like elden ring and dark soals r so funnn this looks amazing
I can't fucking wait!
This dude is telling us the entire game step by step. This more of a strategy guide than a review.
Feel it the same I cut the video immediately
4:16 isn’t Ace Combat an “AC” game?
Ace combat is a jet game
Can I use Hotas with this game?
Is there co-op?
Excellent review!
Somebody broke their non-disclosure agreement a week ago on RUclips and that video got pulled. I-Ready had pre-ordered it and I was almost regretting it because of how buggy the game looked. There must have been a super early version of it because I not encountered a single one of those bugs.
Really curious about mouse and keyboard
I just live giant mechs and used to love gundam as a child. This shit is like a drean
