I would like to see a picture showcasing an AC that is decidedly a lightweight.

 

I'm doomed to own this game ASAP since I am an Armored Core player and I do what I do because I must, but it's going to suck if everything is a heavy or a tank.

I'd be surprised if there were no LW's. The picture Griffon posted seems to have a MW looking thing in the top left. First biped I've seen that doesn't look like a HW. The legs actually remind me of SL's SVRT LW legs, just a bit bigger.

 

On the subject of streamlines, the one just below that looks vaguely TELLUS-y. Also, nothing in AC is streamlined. I'D KNOW.

 

I don't like the look of most of the AC5 parts though.

70 missions that have the potential to be an hour long? Not even an A class rpg has a story that long. Detailed online play to boot? Sounds good so far.

I like the part designs. Really mechanical.

 

 

I kind of see them as having a "what a person who doesn't know anything about robots would think robots look like" style. I don't know, they just don't seem practical, just random. And blocky. And what ACDC said. From should replace their graphics artists with mechanical engineers.

 

Also I typed this without touching my space bar since ctrl+v is magical.

Yes, Laser Blades still exist... although now they look like hand held knuckles.

Isn't erocderomra someone who used to post on either aco or gfaqs? I definitely recognize the name.

I like the look of those new blades, to be honest. I like how they have it in "Classic standard" and the new "Chainsaw" variants. :P

 

A few of those screens got me thinking though.

The screens with the new targeting circle, mostly. In all the screens I've seen, nothing outside that circle seems to be targeted. Could this be AC5 bringing back a new Lockbox?

This is of course completely baseless speculation, but given its size and shape, could this supposed Laser Cannon possibly be the new Karasawa?

Also, ACs have never looked this sharp, detail-wise. Graphically, fA can't even compare.

Wouldn't it be called a Lock-On "Ring" rather than box?

 

Either that or a scanner cursor, I noticed the "092.06" number just beside the Lock On box which in other screenshots tend to be the 100% scan or something like this?

Then again, I saw this shot to disprove my thought:

Seperate Scanning system?

Nope. Look at the scenes where the person is below 100%.

 

Almost all of them are boosting, having the "Boosting" message in the lock ring.

 

It's your generator bar, just like how the bar on the left looks to be AP. Looks like Fromsoftware figured out that we don't look anywhere but where we're targeting most of the time. Only issue is I don't see a place to count your remaining ammo.

 

And that 2nd image might be the Operator player's view, or a replacement for the radar.

Well hello there. I like the Lock Ring idea.

 

 

Also, a good indicator of this game is, look at the places where they're fighting. Cover freaking everywhere.
