[@serapheid3669]

I always get goosebumps seeing this fight because of next gen White Glint's backstory. Playing the game, you wonder how one NEXT (this game's ACs) is capable of singlehandedly defending an entire city-state that's by itself opposed to the combined powers of the world. Like, imagine a single mech is the sole reason why a country isn't annihilated yet by the world's powers. Heck, they even consider it stronger than the so-called No.1 AC in the world's rankings in their records. (SPOILERS FROM THIS POINT) Then later on you find out who the Operator (basically, the Handler for this game) for the pilot of the mech is and it just blows your mind. The pilot's fucking YOU from the last game! Of course YOU'd have the firepower and ability to singlehandedly oppose the world! I still get shivers whenever I remember that detail.

[@serapheid3669]

@@iwuanadie1058 yeah, it's the pilot. the handler (or operator in the case of AC4) is just the one who helps or guides the pilot, kinda like a coach. You discover that the operator supporting the White Glint is the same one you had in AC4, thus implying the pilot is you from the last game.

[@Ko-165]

@@iwuanadie1058in the lore during an “interview” with the handler she states that she does have a LYNX ready to help defend, but she neither confirms nor denies whether if it’s actually white glint. (Go look on the wiki, white glint is more than likely still alive)

[@aetherdraw]

​@@Ko-165Fiona didn't seem sad or worried that white glint got shot down. With the amount of crap Anatolia's merc went through, he's definitely alive and kicking. Plus losing the threat of White glint allows line ark to sell their own AC parts to the world without retaliation since the corps aren't expecting said parts to be WG class.

[@wingzero7621]

​@@aetherdrawIt probably what Fiona plan from the start, it wouldn't surprise me if she still feel burden seeing WG fight since in the first place WG return to the battlefield mostly because of her saving him and he felt indebted to Anatolia

I love this fight. It's like a real superhero crossover from 4 to FA.

[@randomdude9367]

The trope "fighting with/against your character from the previous game" is one my favorites Wish they would make a similar mission for AC6 if it gets a sequel game.

[@victorykingpin3674]

Oh that would be horrifying, you should be able to port your previous save, and instead of letting you start with that stuff, it just turns into one of the bossfights, because you're fighting Raven, that'd be cool ngl 😞

[@prototype1029]

​@victorykingpin3674 imagine it copies your play style as well. If you played a light build that had a missile set, the boss would copy your playstyle and barrage you while being untouchable

@@prototype1029So, like Armored Core Formula Front but a secret boss in Ac7?

[@IamPang]

Finally playing AC6 after skipping every entry after Last Raven makes me realize how insanely fast gameplay with NEXTs are compared to ACs

[@UnknownSquid]

The core premise behind "NEXTs" is that they were the next generation of ACs. All the regular chaff enemies you fight through the game, are technically supposed to be ACs. There's a mission where you have to fight a team of the previous most elite AC pilots from the previous generation, whose pilots aren't compatible with NEXTs and thus stuck in their old machines. I remember it being kinda heart breaking how easily you wipe through them, and the way the games NPC narration describes them as "obsolete", despite how they were the heros of their own era.

[@shotgunammo]

some people still think acfa NEXTS were on the same powerlevel as the AC's in 6, if only they knew..

[@Deadsnake989]

@@shotgunammo From very early on in AC 4 I realized that normals were previous generation AC's. I've ran into a TON of people who adamantly believe normals are just tough MT's. And yeah, the AC's in 6 are still jokes compared to a NEXT.

[@danielboyd7810]

Lore implications aside, AC 4a was also very frantic and boost spammy from a gameplay perspective. Ac6 by comparison, in most situations, requires you to be more deliberate with your movement. I prefer it to the Next game play honestly, sense of speed aside

[@UnknownSquid]

@@danielboyd7810 Yeah, gameplay wise AC6 is the far more refined formula. It's combined the best aspects of the whole franchise. Still feels just as fast as AC4 in practice, without making it so that you can barely even see your opponents. AC4 is just a fun era in the franchise thematically, and notable for experimenting with pushing some limits. Does make me wonder what it would be like to try and revisit that era in a modern engine though.

[@fluffypinkpandas]

i agree AC6 is smoother would be nice to have a speed tweak mod so we can see what kojima NEXTs would look like on rubicon

[@shadows_star]

One of the few things AC6 disappointed me with was the lack of any water stages where you can fight on its surface.

[@Haka-f3k-u]

You should try actually playing AC6 then because Watchpoint Alpha has plenty of water to fight on, in every mission you do there.

[@QuinoLising]

In Intercept the Mandatory Inspection Squad and Coral Convergence, there are water stages with surface fight as well as Watchpoint Alpha that was previously stated.

[@VictorIV0310]

Do you mean water stages where it is actually deep enough to sink?

[@romannoodles5213]

I was 4 y/o when Armored Core For Answer released, and I'd never heard of the AC franchise since the announcement of AC VI.

Yeah at least you can go play them as new games which is pretty cool. Reminds me of another channel where this guy is playing some of the Megaman X games for the first time. I was hoping VI would have the combat speed from 4/FA but it still looks good. Enjoy!

NIGHTFALL Raven in a damn NEXT would go so hard. Arguably the IBIS series that ALLGuazu and Ayre pilot are a sort of pseudo NEXT, being giant AC's that teleport around and all that. But still, A NIGHTFALL Redemption where he Pilots a NEXT would be great.

@NotZealot NEXT'S and normal AC's are about the same size, and the IBIS fight has you dodging a shit-load of missile type things, and that's also how it was in fA, if you combined the fights, then that would be close to a NEXT fight

[@vlanson6529]

AC6's one major flaw has to be its music. While it's good, it doesn't really have boss music that inspires you to fight, and makes you feel kinda depressed or desperate.

I really wished there was somewhat of a mention or reference to white glint or really any major ac game characters in 6 but since we dont know for sure if ac6 is connected to any of the game at all might not even get a mention and just be a different universe again....what like this is the 4th universe of ac?

[@RyanLBC]

in terms of cannon, only 4-4a-5-5v connect in terms of time line. the rest of the series have their own cannon time lines such as ac1-2 are also connected, etc. ac6 is its own universe as well with the true ending indicating a creation of these time lines mentioned in prior series. so there's that possibility but it's only a theory.
