So will you be a daemon, an x, or a machina?
definitely gonna change this when the game comes out, i like the colour scheme but its hard to make something i actually like
No, onyx makes your mech look jet black. It looks super rad.
I'm going to have to buy this shit just because of the soundtrack alone. Tried the demo out on a whim, and gat damn is it good
when will we get ac pc ports ?
It looked gray/silver to me but I guess I'm retarded. I hope there's a shiny green one.
guess who got a copy from their local game store

Are the two on the bottom right from different anons? If so, this list seems to have fallen right into anime tropes.
Only ten? I'm disappointed.
>no clown girl make up
I shoulda dropped the game but here I am
there was more posted in the last thread so someone should update it before the game drops, and to get more people to post their outers in the mean time
also heres an actual screenshot of my dude since I bothered to set up an alt twitter for it like an user posted about

Whats a good name for an arsenal?
I just go with names from armored core honestly, tons of different nicknames for enemy mechs
Well, with the outers being the demons in the machine, I'ld say something from the 72 pillars, or akin to that.
Or do something generic and "grunt"-y. Maybe something that sounds like it's from a factory.

Naming tropes!
>Top tier
Serial/Series Names like Bulwark-77 or V's M21
Historical names like Washington or Khan or basically anything you'd name a ship
>Mid tier

Normal fucking names like Frank or Jamal.
Add more if you feel like it
Damn thanks
put me in fag
If there wasn't a character limit, I would totally name my arsenal "Frank or Jamal."
Wait. Can you change facial structure?
thanks
What about noun-nouns?
Yes but there's only a few decent-looking female ones.
I don’t care about females. I just want to know if I can create a square-jawed, generic grunt to stand out in a sea of anime rejects.
Do you get anything from demo? Or can I stop playing it and just wait for the main game?
Is this square-jawed enough?
Don't worry friend, I'm saving you all in my little folder of secrets.

Story probably isn't available in co op huh. Woulda been cool if it were like god eater.
I can't post a face because sadly that's not gonna happen
Trying to go for a Teutonic Knight colour scheme, any suggestions?
Correct.
Honestly thinking of selling my PS4 for a switch and this.
The only game on the PS4 worth playing is Bloodborne
If you literally don't have anything else you want to play on the PS4 and got a PC that can run multiplats, go for it
Upgrade that Legion Torso to Osafune already
I'm also worried if I get a switch that DxM will go multiplat like octopath did
Not that guy, but you can't get three sloted Osufune in the demo.
>he bought a console for 1 game
>now hes looking to sell it for pennies
Sad
I got a bunch of other games for it, but they're literally all multiplat
While it's published by Nintendo worldwide bar japan, it is published by Marvelous in japan, so the possibility of a port is there.
If DXM is the only game you want on the Switch to begin with, then don't do it, never buy a console for one single game.
Is it a simutaneous launch for all of the US or is it according to time zones?
You can't enjoy multiplats? Ok dummy
One man can dream.
How's the customisation?
Does each part have stats to manage like AC?
Is there progression skill tree stuff?
This wouldn't be the first third party game Nintendo promoted and published outside of Japan to be ported to PC after the fact (Octopath Traveller), nor would it be it the first Marvelous IP to do so also (Travis Strikes Again). There's definitely the possibility for it to go multiplat eventually.
I better see you niggers online
>30 minutes
AAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>Does each part have stats to manage like AC?
Yes, look at >Is there progression skill tree stuff?
Sorta, you upgrade your Outer with body modifications and slowly become more machine than man.
There are different upgrade branches that can be picked but you can't alternate between them once you've picked the next upgrade.
>didn't kill you instantly
The stats and customisation is great, but if there's upgrade branches I'm worried it'll make the game unbalanced and at worse force boring metafags to say if you aren't doing it this way then it's not viable
>There are different upgrade branches that can be picked but you can't alternate between them once you've picked the next upgrade.
Well, there is the option to reset your upgrades back to square one and change them from there.
Yeah but you gotta pay for that
>477782252
I named mine DeeDee
Cause she's really good at fucking up machines
>How's the customisation?
the demo is a lot more like AC now than that prototypes thing a while back, but its still watered down compared to something like AC3/SL.
>Does each part have stats to manage like AC?
yes, in addition to a random loot component. if you kill an enemy not-AC, you can loot them for 1 part out of a pool. Some parts will come with a bonus mod.
>Is there progression skill tree stuff?
there were cybernetic mods that acted as sort of a progression tree in the original prototype missions (old demo), but not in the new demo. not sure if it was removed or not.
It is just not activated in the demo
The option is still there when you go to the lab, it's just not unlocked yet
Cyber mods skill tree is still there. It seems to go up to level 9.

Does the game have challenging fights/engaging enemies or is it more the 'upgrade yourself from a death machine into a death machine god' type?
I don't care about mechs i just want to know if the game plays good.
Didn't you have to proofread this shit?
I wanna die
>There's someone else in this retarded hole of a country that likes mechs
Holy shit you better be in QLD bro
Are there any bonuses you can only get in the demos? I have them installed as well as the pre-ordered game but haven't played them yet.
I'm sorry to disappoint but I'm importing it from you guys.
I still don't get how this picture works
I like this one.
You tried
Depends on the mission
It varies from "wait it's over already?" to "oh god fuck this bullshit spider"
Second free mission was "WHY THIS NIGGA HURTIN ME"
every mission in the demo was very easy, and healing things were plentiful. hopefully release will be a bit more challenging. gameplay wise, its f*n, but how they handle ascending and descending is very wonky - hold b to jump into the air, where you'll automatically hover. press in L stick to descend and land to be on the ground. I would have prefered AC's approach of one button for ascent and mech gradually wanting to fall with gravity making an additional button unnecessary.
Shoot the enviroment son
HANDS ON HIPS
THIS ISNT ROCKET SCIENCE
Nevermind, dumb question, just read the thread.
There's something really weird about it. Although it does remind me of Deathsmiles
Will it flop hard or have decent sales at least?
It'll probably slowly reach 1 mil
Switching parts is more like sidegrading than straight upgrades it seems. Regular enemies are pretty much trash, but enough of them at once can build up damage quickly. Bosses are more like fighting a large monster in Monster Hunter. They can be challenging at first, but then you learn their attacks and you can destroy them fairly quickly while cursing because they didn't drop their rare item. Don't know how many bosses there are though.
What's everyone's control scheme? I'm not liking the defaults at all.
>nichest of genres
>middling reviews because the nichest of genres doesn't appeal to the common reviewer
>the entire AC playerbase was on the PS3
I expect the first but I hope for the second
But it is 3rd place in the JP eShop at least
Default, tried to switch it but I just can't.
All I did was make ascend triangle
I made the femto armaments into L+Y/R/A.
Speaking of controls, what's the Assist Button option do?
For a game with something called Femto I'm surprised no ones tried to make Griffith in the character screen
I'm ready, I'm fucking ready
Im playing the prologue now
You can use it to modify certain buttons in the control scheme
Like, instead of pressing Up or Down on the pad to change Femto Mode, you press Assist Button + Other Button
I considered it, but I settled for yelling "GRIFFITH" at the top of my lungs every time I entered a Femto zone.
someone made one on reddit and theres even a closed eye cosmetic dlc or whatev thats supposed to come out with launch
So I'm semi interested but the demo kind of turned me off with how the story missons are just 'get in there and pretend you had meaningful conversations at some point'.
The pacing was sour. Encounter a boss on the first mission then do nothing for another 6. Is that just how it's supposed to go?
What's this kind of game closest to? It seems more like a diablo-esque looter shooter than anything else. Is my perception off?
Yeah your perception is off
This seems like a pretty decent review youtu.be
yea i know
>ign
but it seems pretty honest
WHY WONT IT LAUNCH ITS MIDNIGHT REEEEEEE
homosexuals have to wait another day, sorry
Who else /got it downloaded but gonna wait til tomorrow cus you're a good boy/
I also rather not start while I'm tired. I'm too old for playan midnight launch
>they actually have it divided by time zones
darn
Performance holds up admirably
It might take a month to hit a million but I believe in DXM
The issue is I don't actually know the last time an Armored Core game hit more than a million sales, or even a million
Using """VG Chartz""" as reference, 3 sold about 0.67 million, 2 sold 0.79 million and 4 sold 0.2 million
But DXM has some things those games didnt
First, it's on a platform that is pretty well known for having solid attach rates. The Switch's high attach rate for software is likely one of the reasons Astral Chain did as well as it did
Second, Nintendo has given this game a solid amount of love, all things considered. It's been featured prominently in directs since E3 of last year and it's had two demos out to showcase its gameplay (for good or ill)
Third, it has the benefit of actual human beings the player can see and as such it has characters most regular people can attach to
I suspect a high number of people will buy it but not end up playing it fully, but it will have a small dedicated community that keeps up with updates
I'm in now dweebo so suck it
I'm wondering if getting body mods effect the story or not, at Rank C so far and I see nothing that implied as such but I guess there is plenty of game left.
scratch that, it works
we are live boyos
Pirater get out
shame it doesn't go into multiplayer at all. wanna know if that changes anything.
Nah in bongland Shopto sends out shit always a day early
it will have decent sales for nip land standards
flop hard everywhere else unfortunately
same here desu, much rather start tomorrow while drinking some coffee. I can spend the rest of tonight goofing off in Astral Chain.
Multiplayer is all Colossals basically
you lied to me
Fucking finally. Got all the three slots I need.
I wish I can make that guys mechs soon

Hmm, so it seems like one of the issues might be samey mission design
I havent played 3 in a while so I don't remember if that was the case
Man, I can't wait to get not-Amuro and not-Char on my team, the game can't come out soon enough.
>I have never betrayed anyone in my life, Diablo

So we WILL get to replay the story missions, right? They wouldn't pull that shit in the full game, right?
Right?
ARE THERE ORHER PLUGSUITS TO GET Y N
Oh shit, unlocked for my time-zone. Damn, now I can access body augmentation, I wonder what to get.
there are 3
are there any unlockable ones?
>only 3
Wasted potential
the game has been live for 20 minutes you retard, we dont know yet
Everyone is saying "go with gyro" but with all of the locking on that the game does for you, it seems kind of unnecessary.
Gyro allows you to aim while boosting around.
not being a shitter allows you aim while boosting around
yeah it really is too bad your right stick gets disabled when boosting
You get more precision unless you're a 500 lb whale who can't move
Ya'll niggas did buy physical right ?
i didn't buy it at all since the game doesn't really seem to have any redeeming features besides 'is a mech game'

tfw gonna stay pure
Should I buy the game now or wait until later, since I am already busy with Astral Chain, and DQXI:S comes out next week.
Did you go for Arsenal upgrades or Outer upgrades? I can't decide, and I don't want to use all my money and then have to reset it.
Based Pure human poster.
I'm tempted to go full Outer upgrades to become an impossible to hit flea punching cars at arsenals and exploding once I run out of cars.
I don't see no harm getting the physical version
Arsenal. It was hard to choose between a sword arm and increased arsenal melee range, ultimately I went with the latter
H-hi guys
... and by latter I mean former
It's less convenient to swap cartridges than it is to just swap game files.
What is Blitz? Is it the drone following you when outside of your mech?
Shuddup no npc is gonna care you got a dick attached to your forehead
NPC might not but the story is supposed to be assimilation with these AI dudes? If you become mostly a fucking robot = ???
Considering that is a plot point would be pretty lame to just flat out ignore it.
Well considering warframe hogs a shiton of space on my sd card...
How do you consistently do combo attacks with melee? you don't need the augment, I've done it by accident, but "mash attack" doesn't sound right and is inconsistent.
the big-ass sword cant combo, but the katana can
it just depends on the weapon
Did they up the lock on for melee? Im hitting guys behind me now
how do you do the spin shoot move
also how do you scan shit
If you find something you can scan, the "A" prompt comes up.
Reporting in along with my mech MG GANDER
online is fun
Move in one direction, and then try to switch to another direction abruptly. You'll notice that your mech does a little spin to turn. Press the shoot button, and they'll do the spin shoot. Not very practical though
I've found doing a U with the analog to whatever direction you want does it easily
I bought the collectors edition as well and it won’t come in til next week. Doesn’t matter to me though cause I’m a faggot and double dipped and I’m picking up a copy tomorrow anyways along with the joy cons
What's the point of ejecting weapons?
you can throw them at niggas
its fun
>weedland
But why
Did you really enjoy the demo, people?
I mean, the game has some great customisation options, but gameplay-wise it's bloody terrible.
Those missions from the demo were boring as fuck.
It's literally "press 3 buttons for 10-30 seconds straight" with every enemy.
Did you do the co-op missions?
I made the gameplay slightly more engaging by equipping the handgun which does massive damage if you're at a certain distance from your enemy, along with wearing light armor to get the most speed out of my mech. I couldn't tell if I had improved the gameplay for myself or not
Maybe if it goes on sale. Mediocre reviews and I'm only slightly interested anyway
I put 16 hours in it.
Pretty good
>but gameplay-wise it's bloody terrible.
go back to your tea you red coat cunt
not an argument
Spider tank is fucking destroying me. Tried targeting the leg joints. Blew the casings of them off but I'm not sure it did anything. Do you have to keep attacking that joint to do something? Seems to take more damage from underneath though. Thing is so hard to fucking avoid because it's jump is almost better speed than your boost.
Nope, did have a chance to. Does it really improve the experience?
I mean, every awful game feels better when played with friends, sure.
It's just that the base game costs 60$.
just a jape my friend, just a jape
I'm a slav, deal with your colonies yourself, m8.
>press 3 buttons for 10-30 seconds straight
I really only found that to be the case when I was dumb enough to try to melee Straits that also were packing melee/shield. Then I learned the glory of two auto-aiming guns and just boosting through entire enemy lines as they exploded faster than I could reach them
Weapon variety's a lot better in the main game, though maybe a bit too slow in unlocking stuff in the shop to play with
Nah Imma probably just go on metacritic and give it a 0. Don't wanna appear in one of those screencaps tho, so maybe a 2-3?
Not that guy, but you can solo the coop missions. I think he was asking if you did them to see if you'd fought any bosses.
You can play them solo and they are far more difficult. Your primary complaint was about how little you did in the main missions.

I feel like i should be a lot more interested in this, but it seems like it just ended up being armored core without 75% of what interested me about armored core. Front Mission Evolved feels like a mean comparison, but the super simplified customization really gave me that vibe.
This. The demo was a 5/10 at best. I need to make sure this game fails though so I'm giving it a 0 on meta
You can stop attacking the knees once the pink cylinders explode. After it shoots its beam, cylinders pop out of the cannon. Destroy those and the cannon will fall off. Pick the cannon up from the red circles on top and shoot the cylinders on its belly.

My September game was supposed to be The Somnium Files or Astral Chain (late August, but is the same), but I ended up going for this one. Wait for me bros, it arrives in two days.
Doesn't really matter what they are, the point is that they're still anticipated games and people don't have unlimited time and money. In my case, I decided to skip on DQXIS for now even though I'd really love to play it since I seriously wouldn't have time, but many people are going to skip on DxM if they have to.

I'm liking the smaller katana. It's not great for battles against other mechs unless you pop the attacking Femto buff, but it lets you dash and carve apart swathes of tanks without effort. Watch for the submachine gun early on, especially any white ones with automatic aiming and shooting
Dual wielding those turns you into a blender for anything that makes the mistake of coming into range

Yes, trailer showed an arm aug that allows you to fling trucks and tanks.
You could always manually save before, and load the game if you don't like it.
>until the unexpected sequel where the writers bring him back because the fanbase liked him enough and their only explanation for his survival is "lol i just lived"
Fucking hell, I wanna go home and buy switch now!
Thanks, user!
Yeah, one of the earliest ones even is an energy arm blade that grows in strength the more evil energy juice you succ up while fighting
did exactly that, it's now 10 am, i drink my coffee and will indulge all day.
Is there a downside to body augs?

I feel like this is bullshit considering all you'd need to do is spend 20k credits to reset yourself unless this is some permanent flag which would be incredibly retarded for a game like this.

play-asia.com
Playasia still has the controllers if you want them. No wireless, IR or HD rumble, so hand held only, but I dont care about those features and almost exclusively play undocked at work.
I'm having a lot of fun just going all over the place so far. Money thankfully doesn't seem to be hard to get at all, when the average looted mech spits out a part worth minimum 5-10k, on top of the mission reward for a sub-2minute run
The only shit that really confuses me is the idea of mapping out these goddamn ice cream flavors/scoops/cones
When the OBJECTIVE best flavor irl given the choices in game is a cone, the first scoop vanilla, and the second and top scoop being chocolate that'll melt down and better flavor the vanilla
>game warns you that augments will alter your body

I haven't felt this weird since the first time I made a MEC Trooper in Xcom, and realized I turned my favorite lad into a quadriplegic
>All I want is more sword swings
>Have to have a skinny ass robo-arm to even progress that far in the tree
Even if it cost more credits than a tree reset, I wish we could get like fake skin or something that keeps us from having to deal with the cosmetic changes.
Welp, I've already replaced 3 of my limbs, but a double jump and laser sword arm were too good to pass up
Are we Cyberpunk now?
Only having 10 characters for your mech's name is some lame shit
Ironically more cyberpunk than sunny trannyshit

FUGG
Man, you lucky fucks mine is coming to USA from australia. Gonna take another 12 days.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA FUCK I WANT THAT MECHA AAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Oh wait never mine, the paint job is shit, even i can do better.
It's supposed to be rough and spoiled, it even has deep cuts here and there.
Thank fuck I was worried it was going to be Amiibo grade trash. Still not as shiny as I would have liked, too flat and plastic looking but at least its detailed.
Stupid question, sure, but... what exactly is this game about? I didn't play the demo, and it looks like a game where you send a mech (or pilot) into a boss arena?
corporations hire pilots to fight rogue A.I. threatening to eliminate the human population. sometimes they hire pilots to fight each other.
That's the setting, but what's the actual game? Linear levels? Arena-waves? Free roam?
It's a 3D action game, you pilot mechs and fight against enemy AIs and mech pilots.
Missions in enclosed areas.
It's not too complicated, but it's still pretty loose from the couple hours I've pumped into it
(You) play as a newly minted mercenary mecha pilot fighting hordes of robutts who had a subroutine fuck up long ago and decide humanity needs to be eradicated. MegaCorps operating under the same unifying group hire out pilots to protect their unique interests, sometimes conflicting in extremely controversial conflicts that get quickly swept under the rug. Gameplay has you typically enter a decent sized arena with a typical objective like
>Kill X enemy units
>Defend objective
>Assassinate enemy commander
Bigish arenas, plus hordes and big fucks. Something between Monhun on the big fucks and waves of little drones and things. Sometimes peopel bots too.
This goty shit right here, boys.
Anyone mentioned anywhere how long the game is? I'm trying to find out as much as possible about the game since I'm on the fence.
Length doesnt matter. Meat of the game is coop against bosses and multiplayer and customization
I'm still curious though. I'm not too hot on multiplayer so that wont really give me more meat to work with.
Coop can be played solo the story doesnt matter because the missions are just there to facilitate mech customization and fight bossess over and over with whatever style you want.
Mecha fans help me to choose waht anime abour big robots I should watch.
I've watch obvious Evangelion years ago and also watched some Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans but it was so terrible I don't understand why people seem to love Gundam.
Suggest me something good with brutal robot battles.
I see. I'm not really interested in doing the missions over and over, I just tend to go through the story. The customization does seem good.
Good job watching one of the worst Gundam series. Watch some Getter Robo, Mazinger Z and Gaogaigar.
you do it over and over to get money and the components you want. The game doesnt hand you everything in a single playthrough
>lost my first mission
How much lag does an adapter add if I want to ise a non switch controller?
Wow, I didn't think it'd go this far
Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory is my favorite. 08th MS is good. 00 is a little too anime even by weeb standards. Girls like Escaflowne but its got good fights too. Code Geasse is stupid and crazy but people love it. Darling In The Franxx isn't about robots at all. Nothing is as weird as Eva. The first few episodes of Aldnoah.Zero are great but most of it is grabage, and the ending is trash. Gundam Wing is dorky but fun, more SuperRobot than most. Unicorn is a classic but requires at least a baseline understanding 1979 Gundam to get the full picture. (Like who is Bright and so on) Thunderbolt is probably the best godamned Gundam anything in decades but it is depressing and hardcore. Ibo's story sucks but it has some good fights, the ending was the most controversial part. Turn A is good if you have no idea where to start and dont mind crotch-cock pits. Mobile Fighter is as campy is it is entertaining as it is stupid as it is endearing. (SOMBRERO GUNDAM) It depends a lot on what you are into. Like Berserk? Watch Thunderbolt. Like Dragonball? Watch Mobile Fighter. Like Waifus? Watch Darling. Like political shit? Watch Aldnoah or soemthing idk. Want weird? Watch Eva or Argento Soma which gives Eva a run for its money in the "What the fuck am I watching?" Deoartment and has arespectably batshit ending. Want medieval mecha and magic? Escaflowne or Turn A more or less. Want robot rambo? 08th. Want a Nuclear laser gun pointed at space station filled with millions of people? Stardust.
Was playing last night
>Reviewers
Waaah! The game is too clunky and confusing
>Me
>Change some buttons and here there to something I’m comfortable with then...
FLYING AROUND AT THE SPEED SOUND!
I legit spent a whole hour is the training room because movement felt better than fucking sex.
Dual gunning with gyro is the motherfucking best.
Lmao thanks, now i know i won't do aug.
We're Newtype, no need for robot shits
Watch the first one and 0080.
Thunderbolt is pretty top tier and short.
The movie got me into Gundam
Especially if is true, I want laser sword sure, but I draw the line at giving up my dick.
How many coop missions can one expect?
Sir yes sir!
Its a good starting pint but not the best.
Too bad theres not more of it and there will likely never be anything like it again.
Ok, I will give Thunderbolt a go. Will proceed to 0083 after that and 0080 or 08th later? Are 0080 and 08th the same?
Nigga 0079 is the best starting point for the franchise.
If they don't like it then they won't like any of the other shows.
No they're different shows
Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team
And
Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket
I'm playing with a couple japs. Surprisingly stable.
How do you recommend to remap controls?
I’m scared what’ll do to our comfy threads but fuck it!
Ok but about thunderbolt.
Should I watch ONAs or just the movies?
Do it faggot.
I own both and I might as well sell the PS4 considering I haven’t used it since...
>Googles KH3 release date
Almost 9 fucking months ago
A lot of people I know dont like 79 but like Destiny, Wing, 00, TurnA, Thunderbolt, and desu it hasnt aged the greatest but I do agree it is good. I just dont think its prohibitive or exclusionary like that. Not the greatest first impression. It is good and I recommend it, maybe just not as a starting point.
Also Vtoms is great, Armor Hunter Mellowlink for a dude without a mech taking mechs down and its amazing, and Granbelm is fun if you like yuri, Madoka Magica, and Incest Ntr among other things. But its more magic super robots.
Watch the movies then read the manga.
Don't buy the Master Grade kits
Onas are good, its what I watched, dont know about the movies, I imagine theyre the same but the movies might be cut down like they tend to be.
>Check it on Metacritic
>One negative review
>Pic related
Only Perfect Grade and Real Grade.
If only they made a PG FAG.
I don't speak burrito, what does it say?
>Don't buy the Master Grade kits
Hey fuck you MG kits is top tier.
A bit fragile but with some paint they will knock your head off
It's French, it says something like "this game is a shame in everything (graphics, gameplays"
Was trying to replicate the captain from Ghost in the Shell, her more classic look from the first movie, just the options werent there
pathetic
Irrelevant, the point is that it's a Sony spic who gives every snoy game a 10 and every nintendo game 0 or at most 2.
Man i can't imagine being this autist.
I'm a 3rd worldfag and even i can buy all console and have fun.
This is pathetic
Ladies and gentlemen, we got'em.
>Bayo 2
>hopefully it comes as a trilogy on ps4
>Frog
That explains it, question is if he's a real frog or a Canadian frog.
I want my Pg GF13-049NM Tequila Gundam unironically.
I just want fucking G Gundam kits full stop
Just ask him
You're close enough that I recognize her as the major
you were good son, real good.
Is the outer stuff just for shits and giggles or are there outer-only missions?
Its fine, almost like that facial struc5tyre was there for it.
Me tool waiting for MG Gundam G so i can watch the show
>Don't buy the Master Grade kits
Weak
Ill be done for some other time. I sent you a request
>play demo
>there's a fucking char and amuro in the first mission
>they even gave him a red suit
They just can't resist to do this huh.
They even got the same VAs for them
How old is the VAs now?
They know what they're doing.
Same VAs and they're named Crimson Lord and Diablo, for chrissakes.
I normally would but I still had a voucher so no.
WHITE DEMON
>game has flamethrowers and incendiary missile launchers
Well, I guess it's time to burn the whole world down
Any building destruction?
Yes, plenty of destructible skyscrapers and helipads
Modern kids don’t know anything outside being a complete asshole
Schweet, I need to pick this up.
Anyone able to pull off combo hits consistently? I got the body upgrade and a weeb/beam sword but I still just do the single slash
Also how can I tell which gear is good for what I generally just equip and craft random shit and hope it works
Is it just me or does the outer's laser sword suck? Does anyone know if the smash is any better?
Ah shit didnt mean to reply
Unironically just go fuck around in the training room I have two control schemes
1 for dual machine guns
1 for melee
The weeb sword just randomly does extra hits to nearby targets. I was using it against Gunfort and it did five hits to different parts in a row.
>smash
I got that upgrade too. And as far as I can tell if you run into a tank it flips away and explodes pretty quick
Four warns you to not step on them
So fucking sexy
Guys help how do i change the HUD
I must not have been paying attention
Anyone else get the shoulder cannon?
>long range
>perfect accuracy
>shot doesn't drop
>good damage
There's also a shoulder rail cannon that does huge damage, but you can only use it while on the ground.
>NA
No one cares gaijin.
Where?
Pretty sure I looted them in the co-op missions against Bullet Works and Western VII. The latter is a pain because the map is huge, one guy runs away all day, and another guy can heal his teammates.
You can't do anything else and it makes you stop though (I have ogre break). I like it but I still think I prefer the default missile pod. Blitz (funnels) was cool but I can see you losing them quite easily.
Any idea where the Pre-Order code can be found if you bought the game from Amazon?
Was hype until I heard it offers about 15 hours of actual gameplay and then no end game.
I hope that's not true, but I'm not going to by it to figure that out.
I felt the default missile pod didn't do enough damage and the shots would spread out too much is there were several targets. It was still better than the one from the Snatcher blueprints though. That one never hit anything.
I've gotten a whole bunch of missile launchers (garuda, scarlet star, rampage hammer) that seemed amazing until I realized that they barely hit anything. Rampage has a lot of splash and burn though.
Wait, seriously?
I want in
>Enter C rank
>Train escort mission
>Panzer crown trio attacks
That mission was insane. I retried it 2 times and barely made it with 10% HP left on the train
I'm wondering how good they can be with a bunch of homing attachments on them. I've only found one of those though.
>he doesn’t add MK(n) whenever he upgrades his mech
On MKIII now lads
Ye, does the game have a reversable cover?
I've only seen reviews so far. I'm going to wait a few days and see if anyone is complaining on here about such things.
>greatly reduced memory consumption
>-7
I'm sure it could be helpful, but it still seems like a pittance compared to the other attachments.
Oh wow. I was thinking that the shield bouncing you could combine badly with the boundary when I was fighting him, but I didn't know there was a second insta-kill boundary behind it.
the first demo was worse, the yellow barrier would bounce you back too
gunfort would literally ping pong you to death
>still playing through Astral Chain
Why did these two games have to release so closely?
I might pick it up today.
Je suis monté !
What are those? I got alot of them but i don't know what they are and how to use
What should I name it? Was thinking of CrimsonArm
Someone make a zaku
Sanguinostrum
I don't explicitly remember that, but I guess I didn't play the demos as much as a lot of posters.
It's weird that Nintendo's got so many un-Nintendo-y exclusives releasing at once, especially when you consider that one of the main issues with the Wii U was the library's reliance on core IPs, Mario specifically.
I wonder when MASS Builder will be finished
I want the coldness back.
Other consoles are just kinda too expensive to develop for. Games require better and better visuals to not stand out as bad looking, but on the switch you can make your games look worse without it being as much of an issue, meaning you don't have to spend millions upon millions on higher fidelity assets. A great benefit to smaller devs
>keep saying this game is like AC yet it looks nothing like it
>just looks like a breaker clone
Yeah, the system's right in the sweet spot of powerful enough that it's probably not compromising creative visions, without requiring Sony/MS in-house tier budgets to even compete visually. We're past the PS360 games of HD dev costs straight-up sinking studios thanks to much better middleware tools but it's still not a cheap time to be in the industry.
>fighting gun fort
> get downed when it had like 2 % health left
> try to kill it with the pod canon thing
> does fuck all damage and die
> second try
> start wailing on it
> get knocked back out of red area
> instantly die
I remembered this missions being terrible
It's annoying but it shouldn't be too hard. If you have a bazooka it's pretty easy to whittle down the weak points.
>Ready your Arsenals and get ready to blast some Immortals to scrap!
serious question: how much do they pay you?
do you get your commissions from something like mturk?
Fuck you Kingsmen: The Golden Circle
You're gonna pull this shit with Merlin too and I know it
alright, I decided to go with RED-CORVUS
>and also watched some Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans but it was so terrible I don't understand why people seem to love Gundam
>he watched IBO
I'm so sorry
Gundam is much like Western Comics in the aspect of "if you just pick up the most recent thing to read/watch, you won't know what the fuck is going on or it sucks balls or both"
The best you can do honestly is ask /m/, I'm pretty sure they still have the Gundam recommendation chart
>Whenever i try to join a room online it says an error has occurred
>Whenever i try to open my own room it crashes the fucking game
I have no problem playing other switch games online and i'm on LAN, what the fuck.
08th and 0080
btw it's coop or pvp?
just wanted to know about its online modes
Co-op, pvp will be added in a later update.
Where are the weak points exactly the around the knees?
There's a bunch of round canisters all over him. Some are on his underside, others are on his knees, but you need to blow off armor protecting his knees first.
>IBO
>bad
It’s actually a decent gundam that removes the plot armor from the franchise though there are plenty of awful mistakes in it.
Some of my favorite designs too. Fight me
Same some gameplay, looked trash. But what I'm really interested in is the framerate. Not being able to maintain non-chucking framerate in your own bullshit trailers is quite worrying.
>Some of my favorite designs too
Not gonna hate on you for that. The Graze and Grimgerde make my dick HARD AS FUCK.
I've not exactly been taking the digital foundry approach to things but the framerate feels far better than in the demos based on older builds. Only drops I've noticed are in some mid-mission cutscenes, which isn't a biggie. Take it as you will.
So if you don't have NSO, then this game isn't worth it?
Why are you even here? Go jack off to your frame rate counter.
You can play co-op missions solo
