@@nocount7517well that is part of the charm of ac games. You are a mercenary buying from the corporations. In past games if you get yourself into enough debt, the corporations would take your corpse and basically do nasty experiments on you in their human+ program to make you more effective in combat and also taking away your humanity since you are their property now.
@@valentinvas6454 in due part i think its the fact that starfield is (in my opinion) expected to release as a mess since their games have so much content but not as much attention to smaller details. thats not to say its a bad game at all i think itll be great but it wont be as polished as Fromsoft games as shabot said.
It's Armoured Core alright. Wonderful to see such a strong return for an underrated cult classic video game series. Let's hope it's the first of many new installments!
My fear is that people think this needs to sell 10M copies or something because FROM is now a major developer, and since it won't it will be considered "a flop". We need to have reasonable expectations for AC6, this will never be a Souls / Elden Ring level seller. I'll be happy with a good game that sells enough for them to keep doing it every 3-4 years or so.
Yep. ZERO bs. No smoke and mirrors and a straight up loooong gameplay showing. Every publisher and dev could stand to learn a lot. Including all of the big boys. And yes, I do mean all.
11:40 was the most mecha anime thing ever. Music intensifies, staggering of the foe, mad dash through enemy fire while attacking just for a massive retaliation after. Just Beautiful.
the baltelus boss is the real highlight for me. The music, the missile rain, the flame thrower attacks, the aggressive yet purposeful movements from the boss and the player. I am a big mecha fan myself, and I feel that the mecha anime fights have never looked this good…
FromSoft is truly paving the way for how games will be and how games should have always been. Full transparency to the consumer. Gameplay. No false promises. Let the product speak for itself. With the success of Elden Ring we learned that having a game release that isn’t broken at launch is very important to us. And that doesn’t even take into account all the secret surprises Elden Ring has, deep world design, lore, challenging and unique gameplay mechanics, and an organic community that grows together with the game. I’ve been playing games for more than 20 years now, I’m not just some star stuck fanboy. FromSoft is truly saving and pioneering a new era for video games.
@000ArDiLlA000Thank you. Not to mention the game was literally incomplete in regards to 4-5 side quests where people didn't even know they were unfinished so killed the NPCs lol. Great game but the launch was still not perfect like it's praised to be. I really hope AC runs good on PC.... give us 10m shader compilation on start up if necessary!
@000ArDiLlA000 100% although i am always way more forgiving if the game at its core is executed well and despite the issues of Elden ring they were not drastic and mitigated quickly nowadays games are not only broken but also are bad in there design and mechanics so if your only downside is some performance issues and the game at its core is amazing am willing to overlook that. cyberpunk is great example of this too me the game at its core was not fun despite the story and graphics if your core gameplay is bad all else fails despite bugs or not
It means a lot to us to see this series come back. I remember reading tips and tricks as a kid and reading about the armored core tournaments and the setups. Looking forward to seeing this community grow with new Ravens
@@ChuuniKaedet's definitely slower than AC:4 and For Answer but it's actually pretty much the same pace as the older titles. If anything it seems like the energy drain is a bit more forgiving here than it was in the games pre-AC:4 which will probably make it feel quite a bit faster than those games.
@@ChuuniKaedehonestly same here, but if they allow for a stagger mechanic with guns, it's likely probably did so to make gun and blade to be synergized
Ive been a fan of this franchise since 1997. I started this franchise at the age of 5. This has to be the best news I have heard in 10 years+. This is everything I have asked for and then some.
I'm convinced that everyone posting this is a bot, like literally what are any of you talking about these things are doing instant acceleration rocket gymnastics for the entire video
@@_Niko11001 Look, I'm as sad as the next guy that Front Mission and Steel Batallion are dead, but coming into another franchise's trailer just to slap your dick on the table and say how bad everything is makes you look like an asshole.
@@_Niko11001what mistake have they made? Personally, I recognize their mistakes, but enjoy their games too much to sit and cry about every single disagreement I have with their methods.
@uhis1686 yea it's what puts ppl off the older gens prior 4th gen, but tbh If ppl looked past framerate/controls peeps would see a solid set of games . Honestly they could use a remaster/re-release addressing tech limitations for console/pc... can only hope if ac6 wins ppl over that may be a springboard for a re-release of older titles..
@uhis1686 yea I think also the environs of acfa could use a overhaul... I remember one ytber said it best..."environments look a lot like alpha builds".
7:30 😮❤ All my respect go to the software engineers who made the code for the visual effects. It’s been a decade since I’ve seen such mathematical artistic perfection. ❤
@@ChrisStoneinator you’ve always been that slightly cognitive differently abled oddball haven’t you. That weirdo nobody really wants to talk with. Go play with Lego’s. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
It's crazy, the only comparable thing in older games is burning the Erdtree and that is a cutscene. This happens in real time and looks stunning. Can't wait
@@ludwigii9329anytime you fought the giant forts in armored core for answer the game always lagged like crazy until you were able to take out all the turrets shooting missiles. 😂
It's incredible. I've been thinking about the original PS1 titles since I tried it when I was single digit age. I didn't know the name I just remember the mechs, menus and fighting, then I seen this announcement, it's like shot of memories flooded back to me. I'm happy.
This game is something else. They've managed to reimagine the concept of an AC game, yet they kept its core gameplay loop intact. The UI and resource management are modernized, this is how first-third gen. AC game should look like in modern time. And yet, It fully uses the 3D space for gameplay, just like fourth gen. does, and it implements dodge mechanics from this gen as well, which is a welcome addition. Some enemies are complete jank, but that's a good thing for me, because janky NPC's are the essence of Armored Core. The only downside as far as I can see is the fact that we have a callsign of some furry website, but that's ok - it's a small price to pay for a new Armored Core game.
Be ready to be forever in debt. As a certain Tomboy Duck screamed Deficit Missile in a mission with so much anguish and desperation. Ah, the memories ... when I finished a mission ... only with 5k profits. So my life only worth that much.
@@Able2Game me too! I think it had two sorties in the demo, one where you had to take out some cannons in a shallow lake / sea area and another taking out MTs in a small factory if I remember correctly.
For newcomers: You DO NOT need to have played previous AC titles in order to get into this one. Similar to Final Fantasy series, each one has an independent story that only mentions some elements from other games as references.
@@msfasa For Answer. I ended up going back to that game so many times that I've kind of lost count lol I think after that the one I put the most hours into was the original (because I was a kid and had a lot of free time lol)
3.6 million views and counting. This is suddenly becoming one of the most anticipated games of 2023 if UA-cam views are any indication, wow! The best part is, you know FromSoftware want to make this game, and they're going to deliver the product they want to make. If they were doing this for the money, they'd have had this team making Sekiro 2 instead. The highest-selling Armored Core only sold about one-fortieth as much as Elden Ring, so they aren't making this for the money or the fame.
As someone who just recently got into the franchise it’s amazing seeing all the hype for ac6. From what I can tell armored core has always been a fairly successful but relatively niche series yet now due to the spotlight on Fromsoft post-elden ring ac6 has become one of the most hyped up games of the year. Really hoping this game gets the ac3 treatment and has a ton of sequels/spin-offs in the near future!!
Nostalgia definitely gonna hit hard for those of us who played the original series. I just wish coop was added so we can experience this new Armored Core with a friend.
It all looks perfect. The movement, the bosses, the garage, the briefings, the cheesy but endearing dialogue. The wait looks like it was well worth it in the end.
@@LatencyProblem Where you get this info because as far as I've heard since the Armored Core hype train has started and from several UA-camrs along with there interviews that there will be no campaign coop.
That's a great mindset because I've played most if not all of the previous armored cores and this one definitely looks like the most polished. Just don't think it's going to be easy, I don't think it'll be as hard as some other games out there but it's not going to be a cakewalk so as long as you take it serious I don't see any reason why you would not be making a great decision playing it
never played an armored core game but absolutely blown away by all the trailers i’ve seen and this one makes me that much more excited to try this out can’t wait!!
I played two of them, as a casual who thinks mechs are awesome. This one looks far more accessible to new players so I'm very excited. Looks like you can get as involved in the details as much as you want, or just play casually
by the looks of it this is porpably gonna be the best choice as the games are not related to each other and story is made up stuff on the go that doesnt matter. 1 has the best missions and music but its ancient and take place mostly underwound, 2 is the only that takes place in another planet that is not earth but i did not like the music it was painfullly annoying glitchfest and i did not like the missions or the story or how the weapons and the mechs do, this game seems to do the same thing but much better. 3 is set on earth and has similar gameplay and mech designs but its on ps2 so it does not have open maps, 2 and 3 are very similar and the rest on the ps2 are harder versions of the previous games like the last raven and mission packs that suck. 4 and for answer which is like a standalone expansion are like this but faster you can fly around at really high speeds and dodge attacks the mp matches are insane, but he old fans hated that its so fast so they slowed it down, then you got 5 that has a post apocalyptic setting so mechs are large slow tanks with crap wielded on them and its focused on mp with little sp content. This is the compromise between all games to satisfy everyone i guess and it looks better and controls better than the previous game with good combat mechanics, i wish it was faster and had techno music like the first music, also color your mechs damn it.
I still can't get over how good the sound desgin is, both in terms of sounding good, but giving extremely valuable feedback and queues thru audio. Haven't seen it done this well since Doom Eternal. This continues to be my most anticipated game of the year. Can't wait to get my hands on it.
@@santiagomoralesgarcia1802 Well yeah, that's definitely a given. I can still hear the stagger break sound and Larry sound in my dreams lol. I just used Doom Eternal because it's a slightly more recent game than Sekiro. Plus I felt saying Sekiro would be cheating a little considering the lead game designer of Sekiro is the same person directing Armored Core 6. It does really show the sheer talent at From Software and the good direction of someone like Masaru Yamamura and Hidetaka Miyazaki.
Frictional games are also masters of audio design. It's imo even more impressive since it's an indie team and audio is mostly done by one super talented guy called miko tarmia
This tickles the kid part of my brain Life was so much simpler when you only had to think about big guns and big bullets Also this trailer was just straight up good, no cringe quips, no pre-rendered cutscene for half a video, no promotion for the ultimate preorder pack and the developers thanking us for using our free time to watch the video Stay awesome fromsoft
As someone that is completely new to the AC series. Armored core 6 is scratching an itch I never knew existed. This looks insanely good. From the heavy machinery and fire power, to the dystopian story and the deep cold voice of your handler. Not even mentioning the insane sound design. I think we got another game of the year from Fromsoftware
I’m new into it too!!! At least, I don’t remember ever played one of the titles, but deep on my thoughts I have like some memories of it for some reason!!! Well, it doesn’t matter!!! This game looks fire!!! I freaking love it already!!! Happy that a lot of us will be having a blast soon!!! 💪🏾
I am SO HYPED for this!! This has been my favorite series for years (Started with AC2) and it has never looked more beautiful. This game looks like a love child between AC3 and AC4. PERFECTION!!
i also hope it makes the mech genre less niche. good mech games don't come often either. only titanfall was awesome enough but seems to have been appreciated by small percentage. gundam evolution is a hidden gem of pvp.. only the king reclaiming the throne
At that point they should just make entirely different game. Front Mission just stay and evolve the tactical mecha battle because it's the game main identity. Final Fantasy is a special case as Square Enix used it as nostalgia bait to raise sales number. And as we can see, the experimental nature of FF make the quality of each games varies from masterpiece to utter garbage. Now I'm worried if this game became critically acclaimed as SoulBorne game, because I can already see Square Enix jump in with the mecha hype train and create another 'soulless' continuation of Front Mission IP.
I will be honest, I hadn’t heard of this series until this game was announced All the videos i’ve seen have sold me and I’m always willing to try something new. Really can’t wait to play this
Super excited for this new title. It really is gonna be one of fromsofts master works. I just wish they'd add coop to the game so we could jump in with a friend.
When they said they were going to take everything they learned from all the SoulsBornes and Armored Core games and pour it into this game.... I didn't think they meant EVERYTHING. You can see all of it here! I didn't even think they could ever make an AC game this fluid! They even took Aspects of ACV and made them work. I can't wait until this game comes out! And I'm going to love every second of it.
Before Souls like Dark Souls was AC like. 😎 People didn't want to play AC cause it was way too hard and evil. I would say even more evil than Dark Souls, because its true to life evil, gray evil. Not dark and light evil. Now Fromsoft can finally go back to their cream de la creme and bring their following to make the genre new standard in gaming history 🎉🌶️
My Birthday is August 24th. Armored Core was my first FromSoft game back in 1997. As soon as I saw the release date I told my wife exactly what I wanted for my birthday.
@@Steak818why not lol? Something like coop is totally optional, you sound like adding this to the game would hurt you, there already is some sort of multiplayer mode in the game
@@daethmer7834 Yes, coop mode takes time and money to implement, time and money that should be better spend in making the main mode better. Souls games' online mode is not a full-on coop mode, and most coop fetishist were livid when they played Elden Ring and realized that. From Software not lending a ear to the whinning was the icing on the cake, really.
@@iampain5737 from learned their lesson after ac5. They had tried to appeal to the team multiplayer crowd, and in so doing, alienated the long time ac fans.
I absolutely love how you can hear the enemy pilots talk to each other. Hearing their reactions to you I think really helps sell the fantasy of being an ace mech pilot. Of course, alongside the insanely smooth looking controls and schmoovement. I have zero knowledge of the other AC games so what I was hoping for was ace combat with mechs and it seems thats what I'm gonna get which is so exciting. (Not trying to say that either is ripping the other off. Just commenting on the vibes of the game.)
Old games in AC were the same, you'd get a similar on par experience, just a harder time in mech combat probably. I do wonder how long time players will adjust to this and if there's anything to dislike about it.
Same. It's been so long since we got an Armored Core game, and the closer we get to launch and the more videos they release, the happier I am I took time off work for this. I still replay AC3, Silent Line, and AC4 at least once a year and I feel like this is gonna get added to that list.
Omg PS1 demo disks...back when game disks were black and the PS1 was just the PSX... Man those demo disks were something else. Really hyped you up for games. Also I remember that exact demo disk that had AC1 on it. It also had Parappa the Rapper on it! Makes me wish more companies released demos compilations. Good times
@@oriandthesleepytime Same man, same. It’s all I really had in terms of games back then. I would barely get the full game for any game, so I would just play the demos nonstop
@@_sir_reginald It had Parappa, there was a demo for a game called Pandemonium, there was a Rayman demo, a twisted metal demo, a MGS1 demo, Syphon Filter. There were just so many.
I have never heard nor played an Armored Core game. This is the first time and it looks fun. I would love to see more on how deep the customization is for our mechs.
Iirc correctly you have to manage weight which is determined by legs, power from the torso, head does radar/lock on. Your weight is a trade off with mobility so if you want massive shoulder mounted rockets you might have to go spider or tank let's etc
For newcomers: Legs are one of the most important parts of your mech, because they determine how much weight your vehicle can carry. Your power engine / energy source is on other one as it modifies the amount of energy available, as well as how slow or fast your energy bar will recharge.
I recall my overall strategy for a new draft was select leg type based off the idea of what you want. Next select core, arms, head based on the weight capacity of legs. Then the thrusters, and power source to supply demand to the build. But this is the critical junction. If your energy demand is too high, you can see it clearly now. Do a sweep and trim what you need to make it work. Remember to leave room if your using energy based weapons. In the old playstation games running temp was a factor too and you needed a cooling unit. Made napalm and flamethrowers extra spicy.
I like that the different AC content creators offer a variety of insight according to their experience with the franchise: - Fightin Cowboy, Alanah Pearce and Mrhappy1227 (among others) are the experienced veterans providing the most technical details and making the fair comparissons between AC6 and other title from the series and the studio. - Vaati Vidya and Writing on Games, while not old fans, have played all the games recently so their analysis is focused on the narrative themes of AC6 and providing several tips for those who are used to FromSoftware titles and / or other interactive experiences that involve mechs. - Iron Pinneaple others who have prefered going into AC6 blindly without any previous experience center their content on the controls, what does it feel to pilot a core for the first time and a guide for newcomers so that they do not get overwhelmed by the customization options. All of them have conicided on one thing: AC6 is probably one of the most ambicious AAA mech game of the last 10 years.
the first game I bought for PS1 back in 1997 was Armored Core 1 and was hooked on the series. Feels like we've come full circle with this one, can't wait to play this!
The last installment that I played was AC3. The hype for this is unreal. They kept the AC feel to it while modernizing it. Bless you FromSoftware for rebooting this beloved franchise. Good time to be alive!
How can I have never played an armored core title yet feel this is the most anticipation for a game I’ve ever personally experienced in my life ( edit ) I forgot I don’t even have a way to play this but I want to grab a pc console or steam deck before it drops can’t decide on which to choose
I think it's because everything that people love about the Souls games stems from this series: the deep lore, the presentation, the challenge, and the meaningful customization aren't just Soulslike, they're FromSoft staples. It's very unorthodox for a niche franchise to have this big of a budget this big of a fanbase being introduced to it all at once. Welcome to the Armored Core fandom!
From software and Larian studios are the last dev teams that fully have my trust. I know they will not disappoint me and I will pay full price to support them every time
Being a longtime fan, I'm so happy this is returning. I'm also worried that some people will be going into this hoping for mecha souls and trashing it because it doesn't meet their expectations.
@Tran1193 True, it doesn't stop them from trashing it because it's not what they wanted. The Fromsoft fan base is large and vocal. Mostly friendly, but.
@@slurmsmckenzie. I'm very happy with how it looks as someone who's been a huge fan and played every single Armored Core since the first. It definitely has a bit faster paced but similar combat with bigger boss battles. Looks like they kept the soul of the series and expanded on it in cool and interesting ways.
@@TheMaestro116 I personally love all the radio chatter from the Ace Combat games, I'm getting serious "Shoot down that ribbon fighter" and "Concentrate all fire on Three Strikes" vibes from this dialog. Been a fan of both of these series since I picked up Armored Core from Blockbuster in 97'.
Its tommorow, wake up. you already watched the video. its been a week already. its been a month already since the games been released, you've been playing it for the last 2 weeks without sleep. its already been 2 years since the game has released and they announced the sequel. its 2040 and fromsoftware files for bankruptcy. the company dissolves into obscurity. wake up its 2120 a solar flare has wiped out the electric grid and most of humanity bar a few survivors.
I would be lying if this game didnt bring back memories, it was the series that introduced a lot of people to fromsoft before Dark Souls. And its such a well done series that i cant help but love it. Am i still bummed we havent seen anything on the elden ring dlc, yeah i wont lie, even a teaser would bring back that spark, but id be lying if armor core didnt give me a nostalgia trip.
Saaaame i remember playing armored core 2 on my ps5 when i was 7 and ended up loving it so much and several years later a friend of mine introduced me to Dark Souls which got me hooked just to find out that FROM made both of those games lol.

11:40 was the most mecha anime thing ever. Music intensifies, staggering of the foe, mad dash through enemy fire while attacking just for a massive retaliation after. Just Beautiful.
the baltelus boss is the real highlight for me. The music, the missile rain, the flame thrower attacks, the aggressive yet purposeful movements from the boss and the player. I am a big mecha fan myself, and I feel that the mecha anime fights have never looked this good…
It just needs 1 minute internal monologue but in reality only 2 seconds passed to be 100% like in anime lol
Can't wait for players to rage over that mecha unless players find a way to cheese the boss
It really was beautiful, they just need to add coop so we could experience all that with a friend!
It looks like a perfect mix of AC3, AC4 and ACV. Beautiful!

@000ArDiLlA000 100% although i am always way more forgiving if the game at its core is executed well and despite the issues of Elden ring they were not drastic and mitigated quickly nowadays games are not only broken but also are bad in there design and mechanics so if your only downside is some performance issues and the game at its core is amazing am willing to overlook that. cyberpunk is great example of this too me the game at its core was not fun despite the story and graphics if your core gameplay is bad all else fails despite bugs or not
Couldn’t the same be said about Nintendo games. It’s not like Mario or Zelda games release broken. Pokémon still needs a minute to catch up though
Sounds like you're a star struck , not stuck, fanboy.
It means a lot to us to see this series come back. I remember reading tips and tricks as a kid and reading about the armored core tournaments and the setups. Looking forward to seeing this community grow with new Ravens
I met a lot of my closest friends qt Armored Core tournaments. Back in the days of Armored Core Online and Raven's Haven BBS messageboards
I love how dramatic the melee attack movement is.
it's a lot slower than in previous installments which I'm not happy about.
@@ChuuniKaede The reason is most likely to make the attacks more telegraphed for the pvp
@@ChuuniKaedeslower but It def does more damage in that regard
@@ChuuniKaedet's definitely slower than AC:4 and For Answer but it's actually pretty much the same pace as the older titles.
If anything it seems like the energy drain is a bit more forgiving here than it was in the games pre-AC:4 which will probably make it feel quite a bit faster than those games.
@@ChuuniKaedehonestly same here, but if they allow for a stagger mechanic with guns, it's likely probably did so to make gun and blade to be synergized
Am i the only one who loves the grunt mechs? Absolutely stellar environment design as well
I usually find myself vibing a lot more with the workhorse mechs that the grunts usually use.
I’m more hyped about armor and weapon designs. They always looked like dogshit in the other iterations. Now, even the bulky ones looked hella cool!
Literally the worst environment design imaginable

Ive been a fan of this franchise since 1997. I started this franchise at the age of 5. This has to be the best news I have heard in 10 years+. This is everything I have asked for and then some.
nice to see a couple of trees in an AC environment for once! also the big bosses are really what the franchise needed, so stoked
the ps1 era of AC has an arena stage that is literally made up of trees
And explosive mines
@@M_on172yea but that stage was fucking awful, so was the AC 3 one.
I want there to be a bunch of trees that topple over and burn. So when the fighting is done. You can see the forest fire you created

What I'm most impressed by is that even with the smooth movement the AC has a reals sense of having mass rather than just being a weightless object.

I have never played an Armored Core game. I'm happy to say that this one looks like it will be an awesome introduction to the franchise.
You're in for a treat, they are so much fun
It's incredible. I've been thinking about the original PS1 titles since I tried it when I was single digit age. I didn't know the name I just remember the mechs, menus and fighting, then I seen this announcement, it's like shot of memories flooded back to me. I'm happy.
This game is something else.
They've managed to reimagine the concept of an AC game, yet they kept its core gameplay loop intact. The UI and resource management are modernized, this is how first-third gen. AC game should look like in modern time. And yet, It fully uses the 3D space for gameplay, just like fourth gen. does, and it implements dodge mechanics from this gen as well, which is a welcome addition. Some enemies are complete jank, but that's a good thing for me, because janky NPC's are the essence of Armored Core.
The only downside as far as I can see is the fact that we have a callsign of some furry website, but that's ok - it's a small price to pay for a new Armored Core game.
What callsign? 621 is the protagonist's name and Raven is another word for mercenary. Did I miss it?

I've been playing Armored Core since 1997 and it's so great to see it continue like this. What an incredible looking game.

For newcomers: You DO NOT need to have played previous AC titles in order to get into this one.

3.6 million views and counting. This is suddenly becoming one of the most anticipated games of 2023 if UA-cam views are any indication, wow!
The best part is, you know FromSoftware want to make this game, and they're going to deliver the product they want to make. If they were doing this for the money, they'd have had this team making Sekiro 2 instead. The highest-selling Armored Core only sold about one-fortieth as much as Elden Ring, so they aren't making this for the money or the fame.
Non non il bosse gratuitement bien sur !
As someone who just recently got into the franchise it’s amazing seeing all the hype for ac6. From what I can tell armored core has always been a fairly successful but relatively niche series yet now due to the spotlight on Fromsoft post-elden ring ac6 has become one of the most hyped up games of the year. Really hoping this game gets the ac3 treatment and has a ton of sequels/spin-offs in the near future!!
I remember an interview early on from the director, saying that it wasn't a case of "if" but "when"
I never thought I would see an armored core video reach these kinds of views that isn't an ost from like 11 years ago😂
Next, they need to revive “King’s Field”
This brings back so deep memories of the first series as a child. This will be one for nostalgia for sure.

That must feel nice, seeing a new game of the series after 10 years. I’m new to Armored Core and it looks promising its a insta buy ❤
@@carlto4958 indeed my guy. I use to steal demo disc outta Walmart back in the gap and armored core was on it. And man it was lit. Cant wait no doubt.

@@Magnificent68 Oh damn was that PS2 or 3? Did you ever think there was gonna be a new one since its been like 10 years?

I can’t even stop watching these gameplay videos😂😂
@@iampain5737it does have coop
@@LatencyProblem Where you get this info because as far as I've heard since the Armored Core hype train has started and from several UA-camrs along with there interviews that there will be no campaign coop.
Never played an armored core before but this is a 100% buy for me, looks great
That's a great mindset because I've played most if not all of the previous armored cores and this one definitely looks like the most polished. Just don't think it's going to be easy, I don't think it'll be as hard as some other games out there but it's not going to be a cakewalk so as long as you take it serious I don't see any reason why you would not be making a great decision playing it
never played an armored core game but absolutely blown away by all the trailers i’ve seen and this one makes me that much more excited to try this out can’t wait!!
I played two of them, as a casual who thinks mechs are awesome. This one looks far more accessible to new players so I'm very excited. Looks like you can get as involved in the details as much as you want, or just play casually
Been playing them since the ps1 and ps2 era I promise you won’t be disappointed
by the looks of it this is porpably gonna be the best choice as the games are not related to each other and story is made up stuff on the go that doesnt matter. 1 has the best missions and music but its ancient and take place mostly underwound, 2 is the only that takes place in another planet that is not earth but i did not like the music it was painfullly annoying glitchfest and i did not like the missions or the story or how the weapons and the mechs do, this game seems to do the same thing but much better. 3 is set on earth and has similar gameplay and mech designs but its on ps2 so it does not have open maps, 2 and 3 are very similar and the rest on the ps2 are harder versions of the previous games like the last raven and mission packs that suck. 4 and for answer which is like a standalone expansion are like this but faster you can fly around at really high speeds and dodge attacks the mp matches are insane, but he old fans hated that its so fast so they slowed it down, then you got 5 that has a post apocalyptic setting so mechs are large slow tanks with crap wielded on them and its focused on mp with little sp content. This is the compromise between all games to satisfy everyone i guess and it looks better and controls better than the previous game with good combat mechanics, i wish it was faster and had techno music like the first music, also color your mechs damn it.
I started playing the AC series about a year ago..... You are in for a treat!🙌🏼🐮🤙🏼

Ultrakill is another fps with insane sound design. Best I've ever seen.
Resident Evil 4 R and Final Fantasy 7 Remake has awesome sound design too.
Did you forget Sekiro? the sound design of that game is great and they are the developer of this game.
@@santiagomoralesgarcia1802
Well yeah, that's definitely a given. I can still hear the stagger break sound and Larry sound in my dreams lol. I just used Doom Eternal because it's a slightly more recent game than Sekiro. Plus I felt saying Sekiro would be cheating a little considering the lead game designer of Sekiro is the same person directing Armored Core 6. It does really show the sheer talent at From Software and the good direction of someone like Masaru Yamamura and Hidetaka Miyazaki.
Frictional games are also masters of audio design. It's imo even more impressive since it's an indie team and audio is mostly done by one super talented guy called miko tarmia
This tickles the kid part of my brain
Life was so much simpler when you only had to think about big guns and big bullets
Also this trailer was just straight up good, no cringe quips, no pre-rendered cutscene for half a video, no promotion for the ultimate preorder pack and the developers thanking us for using our free time to watch the video
Stay awesome fromsoft
As someone that is completely new to the AC series.
Armored core 6 is scratching an itch I never knew existed. This looks insanely good.
From the heavy machinery and fire power, to the dystopian story and the deep cold voice of your handler. Not even mentioning the insane sound design.

At that point they should just make entirely different game. Front Mission just stay and evolve the tactical mecha battle because it's the game main identity.
Final Fantasy is a special case as Square Enix used it as nostalgia bait to raise sales number. And as we can see, the experimental nature of FF make the quality of each games varies from masterpiece to utter garbage.
Now I'm worried if this game became critically acclaimed as SoulBorne game, because I can already see Square Enix jump in with the mecha hype train and create another 'soulless' continuation of Front Mission IP.
Front mission evolved is an action game rather than an RTS game
This is so much more than I thought it was going to be. It's everything that 10 yr old me wanted from Armoured Core.

When they said they were going to take everything they learned from all the SoulsBornes and Armored Core games and pour it into this game.... I didn't think they meant EVERYTHING.

And I'm going to love every second of it.

People didn't want to play AC cause it was way too hard and evil. I would say even more evil than Dark Souls, because its true to life evil, gray evil. Not dark and light evil.

@@iampain5737 from learned their lesson after ac5. They had tried to appeal to the team multiplayer crowd, and in so doing, alienated the long time ac fans.
I absolutely love how you can hear the enemy pilots talk to each other. Hearing their reactions to you I think really helps sell the fantasy of being an ace mech pilot. Of course, alongside the insanely smooth looking controls and schmoovement. I have zero knowledge of the other AC games so what I was hoping for was ace combat with mechs and it seems thats what I'm gonna get which is so exciting. (Not trying to say that either is ripping the other off. Just commenting on the vibes of the game.)
Previous ones looked like this, but with less schmoovement and more jank. Im stoked.
Old games in AC were the same, you'd get a similar on par experience, just a harder time in mech combat probably. I do wonder how long time players will adjust to this and if there's anything to dislike about it.
the music around @8:45 is so ridiculously hardcore it just instantly gives me adrenaline
Who did they get to present this? Because they did a solid job and deserve some credit for it.
From Software has maey diehard AC fans
It's me :)
Kinda sounds like Ahoy

same I think
I never played any armored cores but I will definitely give this one a shot after watching this. Looks amazing
I have never heard nor played an Armored Core game. This is the first time and it looks fun. I would love to see more on how deep the customization is for our mechs.
It's goes pretty deep.
I remember pulling out a notebook and doing a bit of math.
you will enjoy it, build a mech with many different battle style
Can we also build it based on design? I want to build 1 that looks closer to gundam 😂
Iirc correctly you have to manage weight which is determined by legs, power from the torso, head does radar/lock on.
Your weight is a trade off with mobility so if you want massive shoulder mounted rockets you might have to go spider or tank let's etc
That last fight looks so epic. Soundtrack is amazing.
I have the fix for you. Front Line Assembly's "Airmech" album.
I'm not even a huge fan of the mech genre but this looks fun as hell!
Hell yeah it does! Now it would be more fun though if it had coop.
For newcomers: Legs are one of the most important parts of your mech, because they determine how much weight your vehicle can carry.
Your power engine / energy source is on other one as it modifies the amount of energy available, as well as how slow or fast your energy bar will recharge.
I recall my overall strategy for a new draft was select leg type based off the idea of what you want. Next select core, arms, head based on the weight capacity of legs. Then the thrusters, and power source to supply demand to the build. But this is the critical junction. If your energy demand is too high, you can see it clearly now. Do a sweep and trim what you need to make it work. Remember to leave room if your using energy based weapons.
In the old playstation games running temp was a factor too and you needed a cooling unit. Made napalm and flamethrowers extra spicy.
@@larrymunn5279 Good advice!
The FCS part too. Super important for combat
FACTS
In the old armored core game, I used to sacrifice so much efficiency to equip the spider legs because I loved the aesthetic. 😂
This looks extremely awesome. I'm so excited to give this a spin. Been a hot minute since I played an Armored Core game.
Probably the best Armored Core from this franchise and I will be playing it all year 😎😁

Whoa you’re an armored core fan I didn’t know you were a man of culture
Super EPIC lol. Just needs coop to be ultra EPIC!
@@iampain5737 I know right this game definitely should have co op
I like that the different AC content creators offer a variety of insight according to their experience with the franchise:
- Fightin Cowboy, Alanah Pearce and Mrhappy1227 (among others) are the experienced veterans providing the most technical details and making the fair comparissons between AC6 and other title from the series and the studio.
- Vaati Vidya and Writing on Games, while not old fans, have played all the games recently so their analysis is focused on the narrative themes of AC6 and providing several tips for those who are used to FromSoftware titles and / or other interactive experiences that involve mechs.
- Iron Pinneaple others who have prefered going into AC6 blindly without any previous experience center their content on the controls, what does it feel to pilot a core for the first time and a guide for newcomers so that they do not get overwhelmed by the customization options.
All of them have conicided on one thing: AC6 is probably one of the most ambicious AAA mech game of the last 10 years.
在這個世代還能看到舊作發光....從小追到大的九號球...真的非常感動..看看那些名作沒落.沒有靈魂、不斷賣情懷,機戰傭兵是少數冷門還能堅持下去的ip...燃燒吧！水沒的王子！！！
遅かったな･･･言葉は不要か・・・
Yes!!!!!
Please excuse us veteran fans of this series if we come in too strongly in thr comnents. Everybody is so hyped right now
You're excused 👍🏻
the first game I bought for PS1 back in 1997 was Armored Core 1 and was hooked on the series. Feels like we've come full circle with this one, can't wait to play this!
I want the guy narrating this to be in the game, such a smooth yet cool voice
The last installment that I played was AC3. The hype for this is unreal. They kept the AC feel to it while modernizing it. Bless you FromSoftware for rebooting this beloved franchise. Good time to be alive!
There is no reboot here? Just another game my dude. This isn't Armored Core: Redux. This is Armored Core SIX.
How can I have never played an armored core title yet feel this is the most anticipation for a game I’ve ever personally experienced in my life
( edit ) I forgot I don’t even have a way to play this but I want to grab a pc console or steam deck before it drops can’t decide on which to choose
every man has soft spot for robot go brrr boomm
I think it's because everything that people love about the Souls games stems from this series: the deep lore, the presentation, the challenge, and the meaningful customization aren't just Soulslike, they're FromSoft staples. It's very unorthodox for a niche franchise to have this big of a budget this big of a fanbase being introduced to it all at once.
Welcome to the Armored Core fandom!
We have cookies... and donuts, and mechs that go BRRRRRRRT!!!!
I'm just excited to finally play something outside of the souls genera developed by what i consider to be the best AAA studio in the business.
I remember reading about it in magazines and thinking it looked cool, but never played it. This is our chance.
“Why don’t you start a sowing club together, and Stitch that damn mouth of yours shut!”
That is the best thing I’ve ever heard this year
Imagine the state of modern gaming without From Software
I know man
The only developer that gives me hope.
It's still fine. Stop drinking TAM's Kool-Aid and start digging deeper into the games that are currently available.
We would still have Santa Monica, Naughty Dog, Rockstar and Insomniac
@@batcout8787 Exactly, movie games...
The main theme sounds absolute amazing.
I nearly cried, bro
From software and Larian studios are the last dev teams that fully have my trust. I know they will not disappoint me and I will pay full price to support them every time
haha, larian…
None of this stuff is anywhere close to being on the level of something like Zelda Tears of the Kingdom
@@graalcloud You're right, when looking at the graphical fidelity and high resolutions and framerates, this stuff is lightyears ahead of Zelda.
You can trust fromsoft to keep making
outdated games that look like they belong on the ps3 lol
@@d0akickflipjust like how elden turd was polished i mean broken on pc lol
Being a longtime fan, I'm so happy this is returning. I'm also worried that some people will be going into this hoping for mecha souls and trashing it because it doesn't meet their expectations.
If they didn't understand a month ago when gameplay was first shown then they'll never get it
@Tran1193 True, it doesn't stop them from trashing it because it's not what they wanted. The Fromsoft fan base is large and vocal. Mostly friendly, but.
I'm glad it's not mecha souls. They really shouldn't be reliant on that souls formula and lose AC's identity
It better not be mech souls...
The bosses seem more elaborate than the previous games, just hoping they don't one hit kill you.
You guys have no idea how relieved I am this looks like a real Armored Core and not a Dark Souls with mechas.
YES. As much as I love the Souls games, AC is its own thing and I'm so glad they gave it the attention it deserves.
Since I’ have never played an AC game does really look like it’s. Kept its roots ?
@@slurmsmckenzie. kind of.
@@slurmsmckenzie. I'm very happy with how it looks as someone who's been a huge fan and played every single Armored Core since the first. It definitely has a bit faster paced but similar combat with bigger boss battles. Looks like they kept the soul of the series and expanded on it in cool and interesting ways.
Yes I hate dark souls even tho I know ppl love them
Feel like Ace Combat with mechs, I love it.
It's Ace Combat if the writing didn't feel like nails on a chalkboard.
Giant megabosses included!
@@TheMaestro116so you have chosen the Belkan Side, huh?
I was getting Ace Combat vibes too, glad to see I’m not the only one
@@TheMaestro116 I personally love all the radio chatter from the Ace Combat games, I'm getting serious "Shoot down that ribbon fighter" and "Concentrate all fire on Three Strikes" vibes from this dialog. Been a fan of both of these series since I picked up Armored Core from Blockbuster in 97'.
The excitement keeps building!!
Why isn't tomorrow yet!!!???
Relax relax the time is coming!😂
Because it's still today
Sorry I've been waiting for a while to make that dry joke
Tomorrow yet is not AC 6 but AC 6 is the tomorrow yet!😄
Its tommorow, wake up. you already watched the video. its been a week already. its been a month already since the games been released, you've been playing it for the last 2 weeks without sleep. its already been 2 years since the game has released and they announced the sequel. its 2040 and fromsoftware files for bankruptcy. the company dissolves into obscurity. wake up its 2120 a solar flare has wiped out the electric grid and most of humanity bar a few survivors.
@@bludclone what??! You've been too far on your stament bruh?!😆
We've slept a long time. Time to fly, Ravens.

Super excited for this, it's my most anticipated game. From Software never disappoints.
i hope they don't
Dark Souls 2. I'm sorry I had to.
@@aydennuula979even that wasn't an awful game, just not a good souls game
@@aydennuula979cause Miyazaki wasnt involved in DS 2 Thats why it sucks
@@aydennuula979asn't even a bad game
for fcks sake
I would be lying if this game didnt bring back memories, it was the series that introduced a lot of people to fromsoft before Dark Souls. And its such a well done series that i cant help but love it. Am i still bummed we havent seen anything on the elden ring dlc, yeah i wont lie, even a teaser would bring back that spark, but id be lying if armor core didnt give me a nostalgia trip.
Saaaame i remember playing armored core 2 on my ps5 when i was 7 and ended up loving it so much and several years later a friend of mine introduced me to Dark Souls which got me hooked just to find out that FROM made both of those games lol.
