This Rating, Review, and General Discussion topic is focused on Armored Core: Silent Line.

 

-------------------------

 

To help add a touch of personalization to the ACU Wiki articles covering each AC game, I have decided to add a section in their infoboxes that showcases what the ACU community feels about each game. This section is a rating of the games quality and approval by the ACU community and it is titled "ACU Rating". This rating is based off of a five point scale, ranging from one (a horrible game) to five (an incredible game). Only votes cast using the poll will be counted towards the Wiki's rating system. I will periodically check these topics and update the ACU Rating section for each game. The rating for a game will be the average of all of the votes cast for that game, rounded to the nearest integer.

 

The other important feature of this topic is to give us a source for the content that will go on each games main article page. This means everyone should write some form of review for whatever part of the game in question they feel like writing for. Even a few sentences giving your view on the games mechanics, story, or part balance can be highly helpful. We need as many viewpoints as possible to help insure the articles accurately reflect community views on the AC games. Also, this helps give us extra material to work with when filling in the main article pages for the AC games.

 

Of course, you're free to rate and review the games on whatever categories you can think of. If you can't think of anything, I have provided a list at the bottom of this post that can help you with picking things to rate the games on. There are quite a few categories to pick from. You do not have to rate the games using all of these categories, though.

 

You're free to be as biased as you like and discussion of the AC game in question is highly encouraged.

Overall DifficultyThis game is remotely challenging. 3/5

Default ControlsControl scheme is pretty bad. 2/5

MechanicsGreat mechanics. Defense gouging can get out of line, but simple restrictions fix it nicely. 5/5

New Featuresleft arm guns are very dominate, part breaking is dumb. Lots of new parts. 3/5

Bugs+GlitchesClient lag is a big deal, the game itself is very glitch free though. 4/5

StoryI don't remember what the story was about, but it's more solid than other AC games. 2/5

Mission QualitySome of the missions are memorable. 3/5

ArenaVery nice arena. 5/5

Part BalancePart balance is very good up until the top of the top competitive designs. 4/5

Part DiversityBoth part and playstyle diversity are nice. 5/5

CG Art+VideoPretty neat stuff. 4/5

Difficulty: In order to S ranks some missions I had to make ACs to do so. 4/5

Default Controls: These are the same as they have been since AC1 5/5

Mechanics: Defenses can be nuts but its nothing that can be worked around. 4/5

New Features: Lots on parts, new left arm guns and part breaking. This is the game that had me start dual wielding 5/5

Bugs + Glitches: I dunno about PvP but single player is great 5/5

Story: It makes references to AC3 and it continues off it fairly well 4/5

Mission Quality: Very nice, not quite AC2 but still good 4/5

Arena: I wish Mobius was harder, he got better after you killed him like 20 times but before that he was disappointing for a top ranked AC. The rest of the Arena was fantastic. 4/5

Part Balance: Left arm guns are dominate but at least a good number of them saw use. 4/5

Part Diversity: Loads of parts for loads of playstyles 5/5

Video and Art: Its solid 4/5

Voice Acting: Not so great 1/5

Sounds: I could barely tell when weapons were fired by me vs by my opponent 1/5

Music: Average I like AC3 music a little better 3/5

Multiplayer: I've only done split screen, but it was solid. 4/5

 

Overall 5/5 definitely a very good AC game without any real problems
