[Armored Core V] Playing one of the best Armored Core games ever. youtube.com/live/GcX_yDQNf… via @YouTube #AC #ACV

@RogueXFPS I just want a modern REAL Marathon game man..

The people in the comments hating on the game when people are clearly enjoying it is a sign these people don’t want to see gaming as a media thrive That and there’s discord servers who pay people to talk shit about the game apparently

@TheRealQuenny Isn't there literally an ornament you can buy in Infinite that's closer to the classic needler? Why aren't they using that??

I will curl up and cry

@LateNightHalo @Majora__Z @Mr_Rebs_ That's an inbred ancestor type deal there because the models from Reach (minors) were meant to be updates to the CE designs.

@Majora__Z @Mr_Rebs_ The infinite grunts and elites were based on Reach, not CE.

According to @Mr_Rebs_ , Halo Campaign Evolved's reused Infinite assets will see no changes to make them more like CE despite the negative reaction Do you think this is a mistake or no?

Marathon.

@LarryBundyJr Lego Star Wars And technically one of the routes of Armored Core VI

Can anyone think of a game where the twist is YOU are the final boss? Only one that comes to mind for me is Shadow of the Colossus. (Though the bad ending to Resident Evil 9 totally missed an opportunity there)

Gonna be live with one of the best, absolute best newgen Armored Core games (I SEE THE LIGHT.) Can't say its top tier cuz no weapon arms but its CERTAINLY better than 4A.

@moffy_0 The ending of each of the failed timelines do not bode well for the greater galaxy, but if this takes place in a successful timeline then what is there to even DO since everything's wrapped up?

@Bucket_Buffoon I'm aware, but it seems that this is following Infinity's whole idea of different timelines. Because NuMarathon seems to be a seperate timeline in which things happened similarly, but not the same

The Marathon DB is so fucking sexy

@moffy_0 There's an easy way to unravel the mystery actually (the Aleph One ports are free on steam.) The T'au actually take a lot of "inspiration" from the original Marathon trilogy (the main antagonists of the game are an alien hegemony of different races collected into strict castes)

@Bucket_Buffoon -nobiology", you can find tiny improvised figures of Compilers. It's all in service to the events of this Marathon timeline and the overarching mystery

@moffy_0 Please don't take this as shade but that reminds me of the Force Gun mod for Fallout 4 many moons that was a yellow cryolator that shot ragdolling blasts

@Bucket_Buffoon If you kill a Compiler on The Marathon you get this funky looking thing

@moffy_0 If those were descended from the Compiler made Zeuses that would be cool, but atm it seems liks NuMarathon doesn't even wanna acknowledge the Pfhor or the Sphit outside of making Rick the Door Technician a raid boss

@Bucket_Buffoon Interesting! Volt weapons are the primary weapons platform used by the UESC Robots guarding Tau Ceti, pretty much every UESC recruit drops a V11 Punch

@moffy_0 I know a guy who could print some better quality equipment then

@Bucket_Buffoon Outta luck there, sorry. All the guns in NuMarathon are intentionally blocky because they're supposed to be mass-manufactued dirt cheap 3d-printed guns made from sci-fi polymer, packed and shipped in droves to be used by the Runners sent to Tau Ceti

@moffy_0 I'd have to read on their lore. The Fusion Pistol is basically a Tau Pulse Rifle packed in pistol format. They're rarer in M1 but in M2 the Compilers start mass producing these guys for the humans in the second game, and in the 3rd game the BoBs use them against you (they HURT.)

@Bucket_Buffoon It's a better comparison, yeah. Problem with starfields weapon design was that it was incoherent nonsense a lot of the time, not that barrels were cubed As for the second part, Not quite, plenty of "Volt" Energy weapons appear though, which I'm assuming is Fusion Based

I love Marathon

@moffy_0 "Energy" in the sense that they're in a similar Y2K retrofuturism aesthetic as opposed to the more blocky, angular, 3D Printed aesthetic with neon colors I see from a lot of NuMarathon. Anything ROUND? Semi-organic Curvature was a big part of the original artstyle.

@Bucket_Buffoon I will say though, the NuMarathon guns are awesome and I love them, but I'm not sure how I would compare their "energy"

@moffy_0 C u b e barrels. Would the butchered second gen double freedom be the more apt comparison then? lmao Also oof. Does the Fusion Pistol at least show up? Those things were literally mass produced like 90 years before NuThon takes place, like they're the Marathon EQ of a .45

@Bucket_Buffoon It's astounding that you're comparing an ugly bunch of bullshit to the beauty that is the WSTR, but to answer your question, no not really

@moffy_0 I honestly can't comprehend this because of the cubularity, it brings back memories of Starfield. Are there ANY guns in NuThon that have similar energy to the old art style?

@Bucket_Buffoon I like the dual levellr actions, but personally the appearance of the WSTR is so sleek and clean that it gets the same emotional response as a beautiful woman from my brain

@MsYAxisLabel @OhMyEmz Sounds like you just suck at sucking dude holy crap. Genuinely some high skill ceiling ass activity that gets even more fun with practice.

@OhMyEmz Nobody enjoys giving a blowjob. Come on

tell that to the radfems hating on women for enjoying giving men blowjobs

@OlManMakowski Idk I'm partial to the Fusion Pistol. That thing always has my back when it comes to those cloaked Compilers that my busted eyes struggle with.

I love Marathon’s sandbox. Every weapon is strong and serves a unique purpose. Except the rail gun. That thing is ass. Auto sell every time.
