That got me thinking too...

Yeah, but if we are going to put like that, it's like it doesn't make sense, since AC concentrates on multiplayer gaming. No more missions and no more expenses.

Thinking about it more, I cam to the conclusion it's possible that FROM based it from if the weapon used has tangible ammo...

Abaaa bat may built in radar yata yung original na concept nung U3 core....

Isn't that the back armor plating for that core?

Oo nga noh. So sa concept art, umaangat pala yung back plating nun. Hahaha

- ACTUAL STORY
- Recognizable characters WITH ACTUAL HUMAN PILOTS BEING SHOWN
- Progressive missions that slowly teach noobs both designing and piloting.

- Melee punch for the arm(s) that has/have no weapon(s) equipped.

etc.

I'll add some more later. Your thoughts?

To expound on the human pilot idea:

Make them really cute anime girls that can be used as mascots to promote the game through merchandise like doujin, anime and figures.

Yep, or bishounen male leads to reel in female players.

-Designing your own character. Pilot suit, etc, etc.
-Options of things to do between mission. Go to the bar, go to an Armored Core Shot in the city

Basically, the Sims: Armored Core edition (with better graphics) =D

-showing scenes of how does a pilot goes in and out of his/her AC cockpit

-your AC being in the in-game scenematics (should not be just standing there)

-some more "real" weapon sounds

-photo mode


=^.^=

Photo mode a la gran turismo eh? Sounds good.

How about collision damage? Especially when overboosting or dropping on your opponent.

edit - now if only FROM would read this thread.

- Weight damage when standing on your opponent's head.

- able to have an option of setting your AC's pose... then have it captured in photo mode

- weapons will have an additional stat for weight which includes the weight when full of ammo and weight when emptied.

- able to designate number of desired ammo on weapons... for example, the PIXIE3 machinegun-> can have a max ammo of 800.. then you decided that it should only carry around 600.. then weight stats goes down a bit


=^.^=

Wow yeah I like those ideas Moonlight Raven.

If they do that, they'll eliminate the need for having several machine guns/rifles/etc.

Maybe you simply choose the model for gun, let's say a rifle in this instance. And then you choose how much ammo you'll put in it, with a corresponding weight of course.

And then you also choose your ammo type (also with corresponding weights). Like ammo that does more damage but fires slower, does more heat, etc.
