@Spectacular_Insanity Год назад

What impresses me the most is despite the speed and agility of the mech units, they still have the feeling of mass and momentum without feeling either "floaty" or "sluggish". A subtle but absolutely impressive achievement by the animators and artists to hit that sweet spot, imo.

@SliderFury1 Год назад

Agreed. We also haven't seen too much gameplay of a really heavy-style tank mech. Betting that will feel really substantial compared to these lighter, boost-focused mechs we're seeing right now (makes sense to showcase those early on, makes the action more frantic and flashy).

@Hawk7886 Год назад

It'll really come down to the customization and controls. Traditionally you could spec out a really lightweight scout AC or a beefy tank AC that moved at a fraction of the top speed.

I agree. I wish Vaati would actually put time and play AC and maybe then he will realise that the close combat in AC6 is improved DxM combat which itself was improved classic AC combat. It even has the same animation and arcade-ish feeling. Very unlike Soul's more precise and tight melee feel. This is the direction that we were expecting AC close combat to take had souls franchise not happened. The bosses though are definitely souls inspired.

I think the using all 4 triggers for firing all 4 weapons at once can be very interesting. It's basically like the game saying: If you want to use all the available ordnance at once, you need to sacrifice mobility!

Also it's not like other companies haven't survived losing OG talent and continued to make banger after banger. Just look at Nintendo. The people who made Ocarina of Time are not the same people that made Tears of the Kingdom. As someone that works in a management position for a large company I'd say a lot of long-term success and sustainability comes down to company culture and policy, as boring as that is. Talent is always going to come and go, the question is how does the company find and retain new talent of a comparable skill level? How does it train those new people? How much freedom does it give directors and creative heads? How much oversight is there and of what kind? How willing is it to take risks?

@Phoboskomboa Год назад

Yeah, you can always tell from the older games they really wanted giant bosses, and they put them in when they could, but it was just not easy to do well back then. Like the giant monster thing in the end of AC1. It was just a scaled up AC with regular animations. You can tell the devs really wanted to give it its own moves and physics that sold us on its mass, but were technically limited.

@akamesama Год назад

@@Phoboskomboa > you can always tell from the older games they really wanted giant bosses Well, yeah. See 4A with the Arms Forts. Much prefer this implementation (generally) as the Arms Forts, while theoretically interesting, mostly were boring fights that you occasionally randomly too huge damage from outside your FoV. Still reserving judgement for the full game, but the more I see of it, it seems to be Armored Core with the lessons we learned from making other games, which is generally a good thing. AC has never been a series with rigid formula anyway.

We can only hope we'll get some zone of enders legs with a proper CockPit Edit: Also that Nier comparision feels more apt for the boss than souls to me. Maybe it's just because of the contrast of how fast you're moving, but the slow speed and way more obviously deliberate movements seem way more inline with the huge bosses in Automata than souls. Might also just be because it's a mechanical design though, so it's movements seem less fluid.

That’s a nice take. That would be very cool to decide whether balance between the two, or go full on with hard or soft. Im also very interested to know if youll be able to own multiple cores. Like say in the garage instead of swapping out parts you can, once you have the money or stuff, get another core. Functionally it’d basically be a load out swap at the garage. If you can just save and swap load outs that would work fine I just feel like owning in game multiple would be cool. Have like a heavy ground with tracks or quads, a light aerial one. Would be cool to have like a garage full with their own customization and not have to swap out instead or have multiple saves

@FelisImpurrator Год назад

There was an extreme contrast, at least toward the end of the PS2 era, between normal enemies and enemy ACs. Normal enemies were pathetic, trivial, and sluggish, but boss Cores were hyper-aggressive, ludicrously fast, and could wipe you so quickly that - at least by Last Raven - building defenses rather than prioritizing speed and offense was functionally meaningless. Now it seems like normal enemies are actually a meaningful threat with complex behaviors and variety, while bosses have been slowed down and made more mechanics-oriented like the Souls games... With corresponding boosts to our tech variety. Things like the shield and its pseudoparry, the expanded dual lock-on system, staggers... Seems like AC is finally getting to be as complex in mission as it is in the build screen. And whatever machine this is on, it's running at a buttery smooth framerate.
