  • Having lived through each release of armored core and with recent comments made by Hidetaka Miyazaki, I thought I would take the time and show and breakdown when the Armored Core Games have been released in the past, and from there, guess at when the next thing comes.

    It is safe to assume, considering the lengthy development cycle for the Elden Ring expansion, that it will take more time than Armored Core fans are used to for a follow up to AC6. The bar is set higher this time. By now we should be patient, considering the gap between the 5th and 6th generations.

      Funny that you should say that because 6 felt like we went backwards.Not forward everything was simplified And Watered down Even though?
      It was the prettiest armor core we've ever gotten. Graphically, it's outdated. And on the PlayStation side, the game is basically dead. And the American audience keeps getting slimmer and slimmer. The game is still on Balanced. And there are still so many parts that are useless. So if they do revision of six like they had with all the rest of them In the Series It wouldn't be hard because The groundwork is already been laid But if they go.
      Straight to 7 It will be built From the ground up for the newer hardware. Which will take some time around 4 2 5 years But in honestly the grand scheme of armored core this one was very lazy Is it fun absolutely.
      Is it watered down beyond belief. So there really is no bar here because this was a rough draft at best It felt more like Mecha souls die twice. Don't get it twisted, it's still one of my favorite games but I'm just being honest. When compared to 4 answer last raven And another age.
      And silent line verdict day it comes up pretty short. Especially considering they had 10 years to do something with this franchise. And this Watered down dark souls sekiro Version of Armored core is what we got So it's not that the standards are higher your expectations are much lower.

      I loved AC6. For the single player, I’ve used every part/weapon in the latest patch. They work in single player, that’s enough for me. Loved the single player campaign. Can’t get enough.
      The game is understandably a problem in PvP multiplayer. Hope they change the next AC6.5 to be Co-op multiplayer instead. That’ll be more fun for me. I don’t like the current PvP in AC6, though I’ve never played the multiplayer.🤣
      Hope they increase the AC load out limit. I’ve reached the 400 limit multiple times.

    Oh I like this prediction. I'd guess they have been planning a prequel where you are the Branch Raven, so if they're as forward-looking as I think they are with AC then this could be very accurate. I do think their development cycle is a bit longer these days because they do more art and spend more money on art. Game Awards this year (and next year if we miss) will be great fun to watch for trailers though.

    I enjoy the bigger matches. I just hate that I have a lobby and some people don't get to olay cuz of how limited the mode selection is. Why can't I just put on elimination free for all with 9 players? Or make a lobby of hide and seek with 1 guy with duel ear shots and 8 Trasho builds hiding in the cities hahah

    This is the thing: FS will deliver the ER DLC this month, but probably there was some development of other game since AC6 release. AC6 has positive but not outstanding sales and also is not pretty active in PVP right now. There is something crucial here, after ER DLC, there is no game promised by FS, so it's highly probable to have new AC content in the next 1 - 2 years

      Oh stfu. From innovated with every game past Demons' Souls. Save DS2, every subsequent game was maximum effort on improving the formula or giving it a twist like with BB and Sekiro. So tired of /v/redditors shitting on Souls games. They didnt give the formula the Call of Duty treatment, they made big steps up every time in both gameplay and story.

    Honestly, the best outcome I can see is a multiplayer-focused VI.5 release ala ACVD. They've gone on record saying ACVI was SP first, with MP as an afterthought. This is their chance to give MP some more love, change some mechanics, add more parts, etc. I can see them adding more Arena opponents and such, maybe some co-op type content, but I feel like this would be a low bar to clear since it's been nearly a decade of being MIA and they had to do all this groundwork to get to VI. Of course, would be happy if they went above and beyond this and added more campaign content, but I don't think it's a requirement.

    I know AC 5 was enjoyed by a lot of people, but for me it was the first time I felt left out by the series and I've been playing since the original demo disc, but I only needed to see the initial gameplay preview to know that game was not for me. Until news about 6 surfaced I was sure that AC4A was going to be the last good AC, but now I think AC6 supplants both AC4A and Last Raven. Can't wait to see more of this current gen and hope we'll get to import our parts again.

    I can't say when we will see ACVI.5 as you put it but I can say stuff I want to see. Personally I'd like to see and mind you this is going by someone who can't beat the juggernaut let alone balteus or the sea spider. But I would like to see a return of the debt mechanic maybe not human plus since 621 basically is a type of human plus, also maybe get rid of the stagger gauge and bring back the overheating mechanic. because for me personally I loved to drop my opponents AP down fairly low, and then overheat them so there remaining AP just dries up without me doing anything. But also I want to see a type of return to the Ravens nest and have to go head to head with other Ravens who happen to be in the merc outfit with you, because you have a mission to protect something and they have a mission to destroy what you are trying to protect.

    I personally dont think we will see a 6.5 and will instead be a straight jump to 7. AC6 feels like testing the waters and riling up the pond. A DLC expansion for 6 might not be able to make a big splash so they will instead focus on making an explosive sequel, bigger and better in every way imaginable and make a slam dunk performance. My guess anyways. Itll be lovely if they make an expansion.

  • @MatsYoo
    @MatsYoo Před 14 dny

    My prediction is that after elden ring dlc drops, they will make balance changes etc for both ER and AC VI. They will announce a DLC for ac6 in early 2025. They are currently working on spellbound and i think its their main focus right now. Bandai/Kadokawa wants them to broaden their spectrum in order to capitalize on fromsofts good track record. As every decision in gaming is about money, i think we will have to wait until 2026 for a new armored core game. Yes it surpassed shareholders expectations but not in the manner the souls games do and its playerbase died relatively quickly. Sadly they slowed down on balance patches otherwise the game would be alive

      With a cool pay off of upgrading to a custom White Glint with Coral/Uranium intergration. Especially with proper wing thrusters.
      Other than that they seem to be adding more enemies to each mission and more logs to collect for some future additions they're working on.
