This Rating, Review, and General Discussion topic is focused on Armored Core: Formula Front.

 

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

 

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 DifficultyThe Arena bots are built to stress heat, but that's way too easy to build around. 2/5

Default ControlsYou're either stuck with a lame AI customized bot or a manual control scheme that's utter bullshit. 1/5

MechanicsRuns the same engine as Ninebreaker's, but with a gimped control layout and 10fps. 2/5

New FeaturesA pathetic AI customization and pathetic new parts. However, it is unique in that it's an AC game that can be played while on the go. 3/5

Bugs+GlitchesThis game runs at around 10fps. 1/5

StoryIt has a story? 1/5

Mission QualityIt has missions? 1/5

ArenaIt has an arena? 2/5

Part BalancePart/playstyle balance can be expected to be the same as ninebreaker. 2/5

Part Diversity Let me just throw on my BP with selena core. 1/5

CG Art+Video What a disappointing lack of CG Art. 1/5

Voice ActingIt has voice acting? 1/5

SoundsThe sounds are gimped from psp. 2/5

MusicIt has music? 1/5

MultiplayerYou are able to play via kai and bout your AI bots against each other, but that's about it. 2/5

 

 

2/5 :P
