Whenever people are freaking out over the latest souls' game's hardest fight I have to rewatch this fight and remind myself that they don't know true terror

I don't know if it's the case in another age, but quadlegs in AC2 are pretty broken. Being overweight doesn't matter because there are almost no penalties for such. Took me 14 years to realize.

@touchgrasspeep 10 күн бұрын

Dunno, quads feel underwhelming in Gen 2. It doesn’t have the gliding mobility of Gen 1 era quads, nor the strafing mobility of gen 3 quads, & lacks adequate defense/AP to make up for its apparent shortcomings.

@ultronbeta3117 10 күн бұрын

Oh, maybe i didn't notice because the overweight comes from the weapons set. It's meant to finish as fast as possible(back minigun, fastest energy back weapon, "karasawa arms" and the best energy output generator)

@foenrik8941 29 күн бұрын

The machine gun arms go without saying, but as already stated, the slug gun is mostly dead weight, the down boosters are always dead weight, and the -entry- second level level booster is a meh for light frames. Can't say if this is to keep him from being overweight, since that slug gun would already be very heavy. Perhaps more to keep this AC from being too threatening, given how early it can be encountered. I have seen an AC3 vid where someone got around the kneeling problem somewhat by charging an overboost as they kneel and firing off a shot before the overboost cancels the stance, though I am uncertain how reliably this could be replicated. (They used the light grenade launcher, I didn't see it tested with other weapons.)

@touchgrasspeep 28 күн бұрын

I’m fairly certain the last part of your first paragraph is exactly what the devs had in mind. Don Siegel was already borderline a serious threat with those machine gun arms, so they had to purposely neuter his performance to make the fight something of a challenge yet doable. The charging overboost while kneeling thing has been a thing since AC2, though it didn’t see extensive use until AC3 era & beyond. While this tactic is perceived to be viable for some, I find it cumbersome to kneel & pop off a shot that I’m not guaranteed to hit & charge up my OB at the same time, especially because you’re essentially stalling yourself for a precious few seconds to use a weapon that is better off using on a craft that doesn’t require stopping to use. Which is why you don’t see me employing this tactic in my vids.

It doesn’t feel faster on the PSP version, in fact I’d say it feels slower. Your AC feels heavier on the PSP version too, and you have to put more effort into making it fly unlike the PS2 version.

The machine gun arms are great. But the slug gun is not the most useful weapon to use when you can't move, mainly because it is a close range weapon that does best at point blank and hard to stay at point blank when you can't move. So makes sense you didn't really use the slug gun in this video on moving targets. And even when you can move I think the slug gun is the hardest weapon type to use in this series. Also when it comes to AC2AA I have to play it in english myself because of Deerhunter alone. So it is weird for me to hear him in japanese. Now the voice acting is so much better in japanese there is no denying that, but to me the awful english voice acting has a charm to it that I like for some reason.

@touchgrasspeep Ай бұрын

The slug gun is kind of a one-trick pony, in that it's basically a giant shotgun that insta-overheats in 1 barrage. It's really only useful at close-range, due to the spread basically killing off its damage potential at mid-range. That's why on a craft like Don Siegel's, it's more dead weight than anything else (doesn't help that he uses an entry-level booster either). I did grow up playing AA on the English version, but overtime I got tired of hearing the cringey NA voice-acting, which is why I switched to the undub. It's not perfect, but it's definitely miles ahead of the NA version. That being said, I still do enjoy some of the English lines, like Pit Viper's Sean Connery-esque accent & some of the weird accents in the briefings.

Like the color scheme/emblem and how the body parts mesh together, but this one needs much improvement. Drop the down boosters or replace them with (anti)missile extensions. Change from the handgun to one of the pulse rifles or the best handgun. Change those boosters, he is not flying so they're pointless.

@touchgrasspeep Ай бұрын

Yea that’s what I was saying, Dr. Simon’s craft isn’t the bottom of the barrel quality, but it’s definitely not in the viable tier. I honestly don’t even know why the down boosters exist, I’ve not known anyone that uses them. His handgun definitely needs an upgrade as the one he has is a pea shooter. His booster, could make do with the H4/T, and he’d be much faster & more agile. The quad missiles & the blade can stay, as those are the only things keeping this thing from being outright garbage.

While Ace's skill is exaggerated, his AC is solidly built, just a few steps away from being perfectly well rounded.

I’d say that his AC, for the purpose it was designed for, it matches appropriately. He’s not super hard to beat, but he’s definitely not a slouch for a no.1 ranker either. My only issue with his AC is that he uses a close-range FCS with weapons designed for mid-long range. But yea, aside from that, everything else about him is pretty much solid, like you said.

As much as I love bazookas, that thing is one of the few I had to give up on sense it just feels so inconsistent. I do however find the napalm rockets good if you can get the hit with them and I say if because my god is it hard to hit rockets in this game and I hate how they alternate the arms because that really messes with aiming. That Pulverizer did not stand a chance against the extra blade damage quads do. And nice touch giving the cutscene its own music. Also I have been curious why you use type-b controls over type-a sense you like to use inside parts in your builds. But you are good at using type-b that is for sure.

@touchgrasspeep Ай бұрын

Well this build was intended for humor rather than actual function, which is why I went with this particular bazooka as opposed to another viable weapon. And yea, I do find the inside part aiming goofy as hell, it’s been like that since AC3. The reason why I use Type B is simple: I grew up with it, & thus my mind has adapted to it. I’ve tried Type A controls once before but my muscle memory refuses to adapt to it, so I remain with type B even for builds like this.

@touchgrasspeep Ай бұрын

The most glaring flaw is the AC’s lack of armor plating, as said in its description. Not only that, its back weapon choices…while not the worst, aren’t exactly the most ideal ones either. The shoulder missiles could’ve been the yellow/gold one, or have 1 be a small rocket, it could help with manual aiming weapons as the laser arms are its only means of direct fire-once they’re out, the missiles are all it has left, which requires lock-on to fire. The booster too, I get that its a super lightweight AC, but could use a quicker booster to aid its mobility, to compensate for the paper thin AP & defense. That ship mission *is* tricky, and you can get lost even while getting to the objective. In fact, I’d say it’s a miracle I even managed to find my way *to* the objective that quickly.

@foenrik8941 Ай бұрын

This AC...this one's arguably the one that makes that mission so painful. For all the threat Ring World poses, it can run out of ammo and be outmaneuvered. Alone, it would just be outpaced if not destroyed outright by a faster machine. This one covers for that by having plenty of ammo and being fast enough to not be ignored or allow you to flank him and/or Ring World. Dark environment aside, they don't try hiding this PLOW monstrosity like the others.

@foenrik8941 Ай бұрын

I had some doubt as to whether he should be at #2, but you showed his AC is capable of exploding the best the arena can offer. I also liked the choice of missions, bit of a what-if scenario where the LCC remembered they had this pilot and his AC to throw at the Special Forces...although how they'd keep him under control is a good question, even if they offered his freedom. I wonder how Apocalypse would handle in 2AA, but with the grenade rifle's ammo halved, it'd really only be good for short missions and AC fights. Granted, there are quite a number of those. 1:40 - "If you could've beaten him all this time, why didn't you?" "Didn't care. It's what he'd want." 3:12 - 3:22 - :| I think that's the arena highlight for this one. 14: 33 - "Didn't I kill this already? Whatever, die again." 16:08 - "All I want is for you to explode." 18:31 - "Now that I'm free, I'm going to be the greatest of all time."

@touchgrasspeep Ай бұрын

Thing is, I did use Apocalypse in AA before, and as you said, its (halved) ammo count really limits it in what it can do in missions (even in AC fights it stretches the ammo usage to its limit) I also made a video of me facing NB Seraph with Apocalypse, & in that one you can really see how its ammo reserves can get stretched so thin.

Missile Boat #3, the Grand Chief of Air Hammers. Easily the hardest one considering his ranking, combining aspects of the previous two missile boats with the added flaunting of near constant flight. This is also despite having sub-optimal shoulder weaponry. The multi-missiles are a far cry from their Gen 2 counterparts, and the Titans, while powerful, rely on the opponent being distracted or unable to avoid them. It almost feels like he existed a game too early. It'd be interesting to see what Air Hammer could look like in Silent Line with all the myriad options there, though a few rankers come close.
