Post subject:  Speaking of giant mechs... Armored Core 5

So Armored Core 5 is coming out in about a month. I loved Armored Core 4: For Answer, and, though I know 5 will be much slower-paced, I am excitedly awaiting the date.

For those not in the know, here's a vid I dug up with some gameplay:


To be honest, I don't expect a riveting campaign with amazing writing - that's kinda how Armored Core is. It's never had a strong story, but I've always felt that the gameplay and customization were where I had my fun. Also a little intrigued at the thought of an online mode that's been polished, unlike in previous titles, though I was never a fan of the multiplayer. I also know Gamestop is offering extra parts/weapons with preorder, but I don't want to give them my money. :( Hope they come out later as DLC.

Anyhoo, what does the Glade think of giant customizable mecha?

Yeah, Armored Core -- that's the name of the one that does the anime mech style I don't buy into. I was having a hard time coming up with it, since I don't play it and only know it because my brother does.

The Mechwarrior/Battletech games, Heavy Gear, and (I assume, because I was a broke college kid at the time, and by the time I could afford to throw a couple hundred bucks at an awesome custom controller, it was out of print and for an obsolete system) Steel Battalion are what I gravitate towards.

If that's the case, what're your thoughts on the new Steel Battalion that was announced awhile back? I always wanted the original. I'm as much for mech sims as I am for Gundam-style mech combat, and the new one looks pretty interesting, though I'm not sure if I like the WW2 aesthetic. I'm a fan of Armored Core because of the level of customization rather than the actual 'mech' part of it, if that makes any sense. I can have a merry old time just dreaming up new ideas and putting them together.

I just want a mech customization game where I can then go out and smash stuff, no elaborate missions or anything...

Nek uses the training space like that, sometimes.

Yup, but as Kaffis said, Armored Core doesn't have very visceral destruction, so you'd be better off finding another game for that. :lol: Hm. I feel like looking up the Mechwarrior that was recently distributed for free.
