Destroy the Drive Block Cut Dialogue(JPN+EN) | AC6 

Man, those extra Vesper lines should've been left in, adds even more "punch" to the RLF's offensive

(Comes back from presumed dead in DLC/Sequel) "Now, about that beer I owed you..."

Man, that line from Rusty inviting us for drinks being cut really stings.

I love the additional context to the ground battle given by the arquebus and RLF dialogue, don’t know why they would cut it.

Wish O’keefe’s lines werent cut. More V.III would always be good

Offering to take you out to drinks after this was all over was a very Rusty thing to do. Makes his death even more of a shame. There's also something both in character and very funny about Ziyi's lines being absurdly loud. You can definitely imagine her yelling into her comms mid fight.

Wonder if Middle Flatwell took control of Steel Haze. It was operational enough to escape the Depth, and Flatwell would have lost Tsubasa while fighting Raven or needed an upgrade.

HOLY COW was NOT expecting V.VIII and V.III cut lines - it adds so much context to what happens to them during the Liberator ending. The fact that this marks the only conversation between V.II and V.III is crazy as well; why the hell did they cut all this?! I wouldn't be surprised if, originally, the Pater dialogue at 01:28 would trigger if you did "Intercept the Redguns" while the O'Keeffe version that follows up would trigger if you did "Ambush the Vespers" instead. Real fascinating stuff, adds so much context to the ground battle. I wonder if it also means that Flatwell now pilots the STEEL HAZE, which we know survives "Unknown Territory Survey", because the TSUBASA gets wrecked in the alt version of the same mission? This is great stuff @GreyCaliber, thanks a ton for getting it out there! EDIT: But now this makes me wonder what the hell Freud was doing while all this was going on?! Was he fighting the IB-07 for giggles? Was he lost in the Xylem's generator rooms on the other side of the ship? Did he fall off the boat? Crazy.

"i'll buy you a drink when this is over" bro T_T

Fascinating, these are some pretty interesting cut dialogues alright. Ziyi at least got the "Prisoner Rescue" Mission to get a bit more time to shine but O'Keeffe really did got the short end of the stick with this Mission and his own Mission. 0:23 A reminder that Rusty's STEEL HAZE ORTUS is equipped with Terminal Armor and given how much of a Gundam MC vibe he give off, its my personal headcanon of a post-credits scene after the Liberator of Rubicon playthrough : Ayre : "Wait, I am receiving a transmission. This signal ... It's Rusty!" Rusty : "Yo, Buddy. Still alive? Yeah, I'm still kicking here myself thanks to my partner here. So, you're up for that drink, Buddy?"

rusty offering drinks, this make me think that the stv sketch for the vespers, where the artist was offered coffee by one of the vespers, and the life in rubicon o'keefe is describing, could have been rusty owO

1:15

Bro, Rusty asking you on a DATE! Hearing combat dialogue between the Vespers & The RLF? This shit has *EVERYTHING*

LMAO at V.II “The top was always my priority” 😂, we know you’re a bottom at heart bro

We never got to have a drink together.. 😭

I can understand not wanting to clutter the mission with side dialogue, but I wish they'd found a way to implement them one way or another. Hearing more of the fighting between Arquebus and the RLF would've been nice, especially since the Coral Warriors are among the most sympathetic characters and hearing them get wins after suffering through the whole game is really cathartic.

RLF's radios sound just like Ace Combat X

the "i'll buy you drick when this is over should have stayed in game (that is unless 621 is so deformed he cant drick actually

Maaaaaan that Freud line is so sick for some context about how he does know tactics and planning. Wish we could fight him in this route too. Be fun to see him vs. Rusty too.

I'll buy you a drink when this is over. Maybe we can share war- *dialogue cuts off as Rusty gets blasted by Walter*

Buy me a drink?!! mf I'll marry you when this is over!

wish they kept it just to hear O’Keeffe

It's too bad this dialogue went unused, but as it is the mission has a lot of dislogue already. It would feel too cluttered with nonstop dialogue and have the possibility of skipping dislogue if you move too fast. The other option would have been to make the mission longer but that's not always simple. Right now the mission's a good length, a rallying cry to lift spirits and make you feel good about fighting with Rusty and taking out the Smart Cleaner again more quickly. All leading to a final battle against Snail and a new Balteus, a great way for the player to see how far they've come by getting a second shot at one of the hardest (for the time) bosses in the game. Definitely would have loved to hesr this in game though.

At first it seems like the RLF winning vs Arquebus is partly unwarranted due to the relics Arquebus got from Institute City, but with the Xylem being airborne, a critical threat, AND already needing a ton of forces to stop as shown in the briefing of Intercept the Corporate Forces, that's already a lot of that extra stolen firepower distracted from the ground. A great oppertunity for RLF to show their full hand.

V.IV Barney, from Black Mesa

This dialogue would’ve only enhanced the mission, imo.

hope we get a side game for 6 "About the beer I owe ya. It's me Rusty from Rubicon 3"

Given how thight packed is the mission, it was unavoidable to cut down all this dialogue, but it does add a lot of needed context for the battle on the ground. The RLF throwing it all to gain control of the plant. The Vespers loosing the battle. But there's too many variables, Raven already had Offed Maeterlink for sure, but Swinburne, Pater and Hawkins could also be dead already, leaving only O'Keeffe and Freud. Could Flatwell, Dolmayan , Freddie and Rokumonsen take down Freud? IMHO, for the mission, instead of fighting another Smart Cleaner, Raven and Rusty should have faced Freud.

Reminds me of Garrus in Mass Effect 3 and his line "... meet me at the bar."

"catch me later i'll buy you a beer " About that beer i owe ya, It's me buddy. Rusty, your best friend!

Makes me wonder at what point in production they started recording voice lines, both in english and japanese...

i had no idea there was this much dialogs

If im not mistaken (i probably are) from the cut voice lines that depends if ziyi is dead or not seems to point out that either she or arshile are piloting steel haze.

So the Schneider AC was actually steel haze, to day I learned.

The last english line may mean we weren't supposed to fight Balteus, or at least not during that playthrough. The final game makes it very clear you're fighting it again with Snail piloting it.

《It's time.》

Looks like they wanted level where you battle on the ground of the vascular plant, but I guess it was a continuity problem since you make the ending decision aboard the xylem

RUSTYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

They have to give us a dlc what it was like as the vespers

How you can turn on the Jp voicelines?

Huh. Weird, maybe Ortus wasn't part of the plan and Rusty would have been on the ground instead at one point.

Kinda funny that they cut out Snail's dialogue and Ayre talking how it's upgraded. I mean I know it's weaker than pre-nerf Balteus (beat it on my first try. And pre-nerf Balteus took me 2 hours to beat! Longer than any other boss in the game!), but they could've hyped it up to do one of those "look at how far you've come" deals. Instead, it kinda feels like he's just there, and it's time for Snail to get his daily butt whooping.

1:15 *Pixy??*

The amount of cut dialogue.. Now I’m wondering if they did this out of censorship

Wait caliber, you know japanese?

what “drink” can an rlf member afford?
