With the hype for ACVI I wanted to get back to something I wanted to do some years ago and compile resources on playing 3rd Gen PVP for preservation/accessibility.
Over the years we've lost a lot of other AC forums & fansites that held a lot of information that is now gone and not publicly archived at least. I remember there being old long dicussion threads on viable parts/weapons and why, maximizing defensive values and optimizing tunes in LR, etc that are now gone. I've spent the past week or so searching around and the Republic is one of the last few places with threads of information about it, even going so far as dig through wayback machine links and other sources.
The original goal geared towards LR was to have important resources for playing and understanding the metagame archived in an easily accessible format similar to a fighting game wiki.
Fundamental knowledge on the meta, techniques and how to perform them (Overboost movement techniques, playstyle techniques like jousting, etc), video resources that explain and show techniques or pvp focused gameplay, building guides that at the very least go over the meta parts and why you would use one or the other.
I managed to wayback machine find a full ver of Mechadon's Jousting guide for LR specifically and gave it a few read-overs and information like that would be even better reupdating them and giving video resources to accompany and explain the information it tries to go over as an example.
Any information like this getting resurfaced or even resparking discussion with these topics in mind would be great!
Even if it doesn't bring in people trying out AC to explore 3rd Gen PVP for themselves I think it is very unique and worth preserving information for playing it and would like to help.
I've considered making some videos on my own but the gaps in my own experience and knowledge are too wide currently.
