small errors, or things that aren't in AC, but should be

[Tadakatsu1Honda]

As both a thread revival attempt, and the complaint of a fanboy, I wanted to make this post.

Firstly, ever noticed how in ALL the opening movies the action of the AC's looks fluent and alive, rather than moving stiffly like some toy robot with guns? Why does From continue to taunt us with glorious opening scenes, then let us down with run of the mill play? For once id like to see an AC game operate like it SHOULD and COULD if from weren't time wasting slugs with the work ethic of an overweight house cat. Let me give you an example; Ya' know the opening to LR where the AC with the python uses the LB4 to knock the quad through a wall? This implied that a knock-back and perhaps even an environmental destruction mechanic were both in the game. Unfortunately, the first of the two was nowhere to be found, and the second was poorly done in the form of pre-determined destructible bunkers of no significance, if I wanted to blow up a tent, I'd prowl yellowstone park with hand-grenades. Being able to blow up actual buildings (As proudly displayed in nearly ALL scenes of these games) would've made a good game great.

Another expectation From didn't fulfill for me is multiplayer, from what I hear, the online chugs a bit, and from experience, the AI opponents in multiplayer are either to weak or too godly to be of any real competitive value. If AC had used a more intuitive team bases mechanic with better environments (LARGER for one thing, like the big city battlefields seen in some of the movies) and more players per map then this game would be my god. The big multiplayer is even more possible with the next gen consoles as games like Halo and Gears of War have taught us.

Multiplayer aside, there is a BIGGER complaint afoot. The lack of GOOD weapons. You'd think a game that centers around customization would feature useful items to be put together. However, From falls at the first hurtle with two broken legs in this one, because I have every part in LR and only use about 1/10th or LESS of them! How many of these games has From made so far? The answer is alot, so you'd think they would've learned by now. Besides the lack of good parts, some parts are TOO good. I despise games where one thing is god-hand and everything else is overshadowed due to it. This makes the game go bland quickly.

Whats that you say? I complain too much? Well F*** you buddy! I wouldnt be so ticked if From wasen't so terrible at improving on their product. ANOTHER thing I find wrong with these games is the dissuse of alot of the leg parts and even entire leg types. The legs I use are bipeds and quads. This is it. Ive tried tanks and lights and RJs but they all seem stupid when I could make an uber biped and kill everything in the game with 7000 AP to spare. Tanks WOULD be killer if they wouldn't be destroyed by any chump with a blade.

As for cores, 89E and GEA or whatever are the only good EO Ive found in LR, and overboost suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuccckks
Normal cores provide more benafit than any of the special ones.

Also, Id like to take time to curse From for raising my hopes with a hand-railgun, the python was disappointingly bad. Ill stick with SHADE and KRSW.
