Armored Core V

released on Jan 26, 2012

Armored Core V revolutionizes the series with a completely new atmosphere and a strong multiplayer component to compliment its single player mode. In addition, the online mode has been completely redesigned to focus on battles on a global scale, based on team play, absolutely immense. With mechs that are smaller than the previous chapters, Armored Core V is more focused on tactics used effectively geography level rather than relying only on the attacks.

i can't recommend this game at all just play armored core verdict day it is slop that should be ignored there's legit barely any reason to play this lmfao

"Gen 5 is the absolute worst AC generation"->They played it on PS3
"Gen 5 is actually good you're just bad"->They played it on Xbox 360

Unfortunately, I've got to play the PS3 version in OG hardware and made Dark Souls' OG Blighttown look like Metal Gear Solid 2 in comparison. I have no feelings towards this game but FromSoft should be ashamed to have pulled one of the absolute worst running games I have ever played. Why is this generation such a pain just to be played normally??? On OG PS3 this runs like dogshit, let alone RPCS3; on Xbox 360 I saw it runs smoothly but you need good-ass hardware if you want to play it on Xenia, otherwise you've got to play it WITHOUT AC TEXTURES????

I've always closed an eye on From Software's absolute lack of capacity in terms of optimization, but this is too much I'm sorry.

AC V's focus on online-play had repercussions on its single player content and balancing. It's just not good

Челы реально убрали авто-аим и возможность полетов и игра сломалась.

Kota Hoshino's music for this game goes insanely hard. He's really channelling his inner Nine Inch Nails for a lot of the tracks. Stain is one of the best final boss tracks in the series.

Disaster of a game. Horrible framerate on PS3, questionable design choices, tanks suck ass and can't even boost because the booster management is ass and there is no classic boost, UI is ok but not intuitive, story has 2 or 3 good moments (the first train bit is memorable and mission 08 might be the best in the game overall) but is completely ruined by the mess on the screen and the framerate. Sometimes it's very hard to tell what's happening on screen, the game is too fast for being tactical and too janky to be entertaining. The OST is the best in the series imo but the game is not fun, at least solo. You have to be equipped for anything or a single hit makes you drop a lot of health if you don't have the big stats. This makes it that once you try a good build (heavy bipedal for big AP and overall defenses, especially TE) and find at least three weapons of three different damages you never touch the garage again. Melee weapons have no boost, kick is the way to go when it hits. Of course you have to overboost and hit enemies, but how can I when the framerate barely hits two digits?
