EDIT 3: I'll keep this as my last edit to this post, but I cannot believe this hit 20K views... I am blown away by the support. Now go support my other Armored Core videos! I beg you! haha EDIT 2: 16K views... absolutely unbelievable... soon enough this video might take the record away from my L4D2 mod video in terms of most views and that video was 7 YEARS ago... EDIT: Holy crap guys, 10K views? I'm am beyond honored. I should get around to recording the Nineball Seraph run I wanted to do... (This is done go check it out in my playlist linked in the description!) Having reviewed the video footage, I didn't realize his damage AOE did so much damage when getting as close as I did. That's probably what did the most damage to me in hindsight.
You do missions to earn money and use that money to buy stuff that should make the next mission easier. That's the only thing the two series have in common that comes to my mind.
These Gen 5 ACs are roughly 4-6 meters tall, while NEXTs (and every other gen of AC excluding 5) are 10-12 meters tall. These are the canon established heights. The N-WGIX/v definitely appears to be a bit bigger then your average NEXT, though. Whether or not its actual size in game is canon or just bigger for gameplay reasons is definitely up for debate.
Not too mention, it's not even a true NEXT as it's just a lot of parts and combat data of previous NEXT and pilots mashed together, hence it's Assault armor left a big opening to damage it since it's not properly spec to it. If this was a true NEXT or nineball forbid, White Glint, the pilot would already be on the ground. t@@Shad0wReaper133
What J is piloting is a ground up foundation made NEXT, N-GIWX mechs that has existed since the 4th generation thats why his mech is very much taller and heavily armed, and with that assault armor he uses against you with your small 5th gen Armored Core plus also the fact that the foundation also inputted him with combat data from past generations of Ace pilots
@@lethalshed2272 It is an Armored Core made from fragmented NEXT technology from Armored Core For Answer, its not a full on NEXT due to it being made with mixed parts of 5th Gen since the game takes place about 100-200? years after the Great Destruction Ending - J is also a Clone of Joshua from Armored Core 4 so the most of inputted combat data is just simulations as they used his past experiences from his clone, like the clones from Lost Planet 2 (if anyone even remembers that story) Still have no idea if the Towers are deorbited housing units of Assault Cells
Its appearance is most likely designed to be reminiscent of it, both with the dual rifles and the pilot being named "J". White Glint itself however, is based off of different parts from the older generations of AC games. This NEXT seems no different in that regard.
@marselo1316 Valid point. If this were a real NEXT, a 5th gen AC would be incapable of reacting without specialized equipment and actual prep. It isn't even funny how fast and powerful NEXTs are.
i mean, you're right, a fifth gen ain't gonna do jack to a NEXT, but N-GWIX or whatever its called is more like a cobbled together wreck of NEXT parts, and clearly isn't functioning correctly. so its atleast possible for the fifth gen to fight it.
you recording this on an old Xbox or an emulater? if the latter, mind sharing? would love to get a chance to actually play some of the older AC games. been too long
Emulator in this case. The Armored Core fan discord has emulator builds for pretty much the entire series. This was recorded on their RPCS3 build for Verdict Day. Do note, it requires a powerful PC to run, my 8700K is considered B tier if I recall so preferably the newer the PC the better.
Oh neat, I didnt know there was a acvd build of rpcs3, is the fan discord easy to find? Been having an itch for vd, but the xenia canary build is less than stellar @@Shad0wReaper133
Unfortunately I don't believe so. I do know some of the old gen games can be played that way but you'd have to ask in the Armored Core Fan Discord which I've linked in the description of the video.

I appreciate you getting up close to it, I didn't realize how HUGE it is in comparison
Energy at 30%
AC DAMAGE CATASTROPHIC
There is no place for me other than 30% energy... 30% energy is part of my existence...
Interesting. These games really are Ace Combat with robots instead of planed. I like it.
The fanbases definitely overlap each other to some extent. I wouldn't go as far to say the games are remotely similar though.

Land or sky we all are goop in the seat.
Really puts into perspective just how huge and OP a NEXT is, compared to these ACs. It's astounding, really.

Wait...That's not an Armored Core. That's a NEXT!
Barely though
It's a scrap of AC that mash together

Suggesting also its a NEXT because of the kojima particles bursting out after his NEXT explodes

Me looking at them Shoulder Buttons: *JUST HOLD DOWN THE TRIGGER AND KEEP FIRING*
Just S ranked Fires of Rubicon/Iguazu's final mission. Respect. Can't wait to either get this on my PS3 or get it working in RPCS3 so I can try this.

@@Magikey you fixed my skill issue.
@@klortikterra4423 i am a skill issue
@@Magikey unfortunately skill solution
Hopefully one day fromsoft will release this on modern consoles, if not I'll just obtain through other means
The Armored Core fan discord server might have half of what you're looking for.
We really need For Answer as well on current consoles
I had to bust out the Tank mech with dual auto cannons to beat him.
Clone of Joshua o brian. That poor soul
Isn't that White Glint painted black and with loose wiring?
Its appearance is most likely designed to be reminiscent of it, both with the dual rifles and the pilot being named "J".
White Glint itself however, is based off of different parts from the older generations of AC games. This NEXT seems no different in that regard.
I know that sadistic voice from the CPU: Azula....
I rather call the mech Black Flint
There is no way in any reality that a LATE 5th gen AC could ever beat a NEXT. Good fight though.
The lone merc is an absolute freak of nature

@@chicken5747I mean Dark Raven used a early 5th gen to defeat Exusia.

@@Shad0wReaper133 can you share the rpcs3 build or at least the discord server if you do not mind
@@crit2945 Hi, I shared the link to the discord with you in the comments of the last video on your channel.
how did you manage to play this without lagging immensely?
8700K and a 2070 Super with the game and emulator on an SSD. Still get some framerate dips when J's missiles spawn though.
Can this game be configured to play with mouse and keyboard like 6? I have tendinithis in my thumbs :c
Unfortunately I don't believe so. I do know some of the old gen games can be played that way but you'd have to ask in the Armored Core Fan Discord which I've linked in the description of the video.
Can you share the build?
Consider watching the video all the way through before asking any questions.
I've used a simmilar build on my S rank tutorial, posted on YT.
