    Yea the balance is not there yet but I’m still having an incredible time like upwards of 80% of the time I have been in armored core pvp. Thankfully there are plenty of well adjusted self regulating people who realize half the gun is the creativity you can express, through cosplay builds or personal builds and incredible paint schemes and emblems. I try not taking it too personally when the porn addicts come in with duel zimms or more annoyingly imo the duel stun pistols or the kinetic orbits. I’ll be happy when they tune some more stuff up, but I’m already having a blast.

      That's a trash idea since you'd have a bunch of people spending hours in lobby trying to build or rebuild their whole mech. Imagine spending a couple hours comparing stats to pick out parts for you mech and then you try to join a lobby and your generator or core is banned so now you need to rebuild everything and rebalance. Or someone builds a lobby, bans all the parts that counter their niche ass build and just spends hours farming people.
      I think the more you think about it the idea of "part variety" and "competitive balance" aren't really compatible with each other since it won't work without alot of restrictions in place or watering everything down so most things are about the same.

    A couple of ideas to help balance this meta out:
    Reduce Hard-lock accuracy based on boost speed/current speed of the opponent - This allows lightweights to have some more breathing room against heavier builds and allows for more agile movements without getting punished so harshly.
    Buff certain boosters - (Specifically ones targeted for light weights, also maybe buff the generators? or just the generators instead idk)
    Recoil. - Increase recoil on zimmermans or increase the overall weight of the weapon to discourage it being dual wielded.
    Missiles - Reduce amount of ammunition carried for Missiles and increase the cooldown/reload time for missile weapons.
    Shoulder weapons/Cannons - Increase the stand-still/Aim time to increase the window for dodging the projectile.
    Rifles - Increase projectile speed or boost the stagger stack stat (Each shot progressively increases the stagger amount each hit)
    Stagger time - Increase the time staggered for Tetrapods and Tanks to punish them for getting too aggressive.

    This is just my opinion based on my experience: assault boosting should build up more impact when hit not other way around, the kick should only make you finch and do negligible damage and impact. The Zimmerman damage is fine but the impact and accumulated impact should be less. Coral missiles should not track for that long. Stun handguns should build up the status effect much slower. Another alternative is that stagger recovery should be faster.

Also the stagger Mechanic I believe is a bit overwhelming I think if somebody’s going to shoot you with 1,000,001 missiles, those missiles should have a very low stagger rating, there are some missile launches in the game that players will use and just getting hit by a small portion of them will completely stagger you so I can definitely say I feel your pain

    I'd say have a weight class division, tank threads can really shred due to carrying capacity and doesn't have to pause firing some shoulder weapons. The only way I can think of the create the division is basing it on carrying capacity, if the AC build carrying cap is "X" amount its going to fall under "this" division.
    Basing the class division on AP is not the way to go since they can just use the lightest arms, head, or body but equip tank threads and use heavy weapons.

      That just proves that the concept of opportunity cost is non-existent in the game. Lighter mechs are supposed to be fast, and the speed is meant to make up for everything. But if weight classes are needed to protect the 'lighter' mechs, then it basically means that there's no real advantage of being lighter other than for the sake of it.

      @@AntiGod its a yes and no to that. YES speed is a big advantage and making weapon miss a lot and can get close to get a kick or CQC, also NO because the game as a hard lock system and stagger has a higher penalty for lighter builds if a heavy AC went ham on heavy shoulder weaponry that doesn't require you to pause for a bit to fire.

    One major thing I can definitely say they need to just completely do away with is taking the generator refresh time and separating it from the thrusters and other miscellaneous movements from analyzing and playing the game a lot I’ve noticed there is a stop time and a refresh time for almost every little thing. If you thrust left or right, depending on your generator, there is a refresh time before that bar starts up again, and it’s tied in with the generators, refresh time I believe that time should only be applied to fully depleting the generator, but when, using your thrusters, there should be a continuous, recharge, primary example, armored core for answer, whether you quick boost, left or right back or forward the moment you use that quick boost your bar instantaneously continues to regenerate when using your quick boost if you use your assault boost and completely deplete your generator bar, it takes some time before that recharges now if you don’t deplete it let’s say you use half the bar it will regenerate a little faster so in a nutshell, they should go back to separating the two, and not having both of them feed off of one power source, which most of the time will leave you vulnerable for attacks, even though you can be a very meticulous player about your energy use dodging a ton of missiles a.k.a. spam, weapons would, in all honesty counteract this.

    I disagree somewhat. I don't think the coral missiles are all too huge an issue outside 1v1s. I also think that the weapons themselves probably only need minor adjustments (with two notable exceptions); the deeper issue (as I see them) are stun time after a heavy hit or kick and the riccochet mechanic in conjunction with buerzel boosters. Right now, we have a scenario where super heavy frames dominate the meta. In the case of tetras, buerzels allow them to close distance against any AC not actively ABing away from them, have a giant kick hitbox, and guarantee extreme damage off a single kick due to stun. Further, due to the riccochet mechanic, many weapons cannot engage tetras and tanks outside of kick/Zimm range with the majority of kinetic weapons. In fact, tetra kicks are so powerful that zimm tetra 1v1s are often decided by the first kick, provided neither party uses a shield. Against LWs and most bipeds, it's even more ridiculous.
    There are certainly other issues. I'm not sure what to do about laser tanks, for example. They are far, far too strong in 1v1s, but don't perform as well in 3s, with laser bipeds proving the better option. But I think my ideal balance patch would look something like this:
    -Reduce Zimm impact damage by 15%
    -Reduce buerzel AB speed by 20% (I don't see this ever happening, though)
    -Reduce Charged nebula AoE hitbox by 15%
    -Make stun recovery inversely proportional to AC weight, with lighter ACs recovering from heavy hits extremely quickly.
    -Push riccochet range out an additional 25m on all non-shotgun kinetic weapons.
    -Reduce lateral tetra kick hitbox.
    I think those changes would dramatically increase the survivability of lighter, non Zimm CQC builds without completely kneecapping the current meta.
    Unfortunately, I have no idea what to do about lasers that wouldn't ruin them completely, but I think these changes would be a good start.

    the argument is fairly old now. Zimms and needles are strong, they take the least amount of effort for their reward, but they are also pretty easy to just shut down. Shields just stop zimms, dual linear rifles on big maps with a mega lightweight AC just shuts it down also.

    @BlitzkriegOmega ปีที่แล้ว

    I'm hoping that by patch 1.1, we'll see major changes in how the game is played, especially PVP. as-is, we only really have a "Rock Paper Scissors" meta, and it's rather obnoxious.
    Shotgun Quad beats RJ Missiles beats Laser/Coral Tanks beats Shotgun Quads.
    Personally, I'd keep buffing underperforming weapons (Assault Rifles need more ammo per clip and a higher rate of fire. Not quite Machinegun lead-belching, but like...slow automatic instead of single-shot), increase the range of damn near every handheld weapon (Seriously, everything Ricochets at much shorter ranges than you'd think), and probably reduce the impact of the Zimmerman.
    Specifically for PVP, I'd give everyone a lump sum of HP equal to their Repair Kit healing. the Damage as-is is too high for only having 10k-12k HP on average, but actually healing in PVP would be cancer.

    I don't find the corral weapons that bad to play against, except when quads use oscillator. My three biggest problems come from zims, needles and truenos. If Nebula was used more often, it would be at the top of the list. Its charged attack has an insane hit box and is nearly impossible to dodge in close range. Do yourselves a favor and stick two of these on wheelchair legs. Lots of fun but not very fair.

  • @ihaveskillissue69
    @ihaveskillissue69 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I think one of the big problems that they need to address some how is Assault Boost. It gives a defense bonus while increasing damage/impact. And tracking is still good while doing it so brain off AB into zimms or whatever. Totally negates the negative of having to be up close. Even after they nerf Zimms they will still be really good because of Assault Boost. Not sure what's to do, like remove hard lock, or make tracking garbage when Assualt boost. Or remove bonuses or something. Something needs to be done. This applies to PvE as well but I doubt they will do anything about it.

  • @Rohtix
    @Rohtix ปีที่แล้ว +1

    It's not just the overturned weapons, it's the hyper focus on aggression and the overall design of the game.
    Hard-lock, low weapon ranges, combos that can 100 to 0, Assault Boost having zero downsides with no way to get away from the booster, ect.
    The game was built for close range and nothing else really. Used a mid range build in an honest match, it was fun. The minute I went against a meta build, I was utterly trashed.
    Ignoring the lag and vfx issues, the game is not designed for anything except for close range, period.
    It's unfortunate.

  • @fuzzwho20

    Often though I wonder how games release stuff like this. No one was testing and said "hey can you guys hit ppl with the melee?", or man why does my 60k mech feel like it's paper mache?
    The stagger system is also wierd, because duration seemed to go off enemy mechanics stats... why heavy mechanical have the fastest recovery is beyond me.
    As typical with fromsoft, they designed a lot of elements out the game, maybe from past title difficulty staving off customers. I'm quite sure auto aim was where the disasters started.

    @Gorast4575 ปีที่แล้ว

    I mean, the long range FCS options are actually pointless in the game right now since nothing but missiles will ever hit and do damage consistently beyond 300m. Even in PvE long range feels useless outside of missiles. I'd be more oK with that if midrange builds felt viable but with Tetrapod Zimmers just existing those frequently get crushed as one mistake, or any latency issues, cause a dodging focused build to explode in less than two seconds.
    Makes it so close range is dominated by Zimmers, long range is dominated by missiles, and mid range gets dominated by both close range and long range builds because AB.
    I love this game but their are certain weapons that take advantage of the system mechanics so well that if you dont use them or play run away you lose and it feels bad to play PvP at this point.

      My dude… Multiplayer has a big problem right now and it needs fixing cause constantly being reminded that 70% of the frames and parts that we would like to run do not hold up against the current abuse of zimmermans, needles, coral, and missiles. And after giving the multiplayer a try, it is not fun or enjoyable at the moment. It’s the same builds and no variety. That’s not fun.
      And maybe I’m wrong in the coming weeks. I really do hope that maybe all of this will fix itself. But as it stands and knowing how Fromsoft handles their multiplayer patches, it’s going to be a long while till a change is made.

      @@SolutusEversolpvp isn't fixable. Competitive, balanced gameplay is antithetical to building your own mech. It's not possible to allow a great deal of customization and account for PVP balance at the same time. Every meta will always focus on what weapons do the most damage the fastest and the easiest, so fixing something this week will only create problems for next week. The only real solution for a competively viable game would be preset designs (like a fighting game) where mechs are tuned for balance and aesthetics if the game sticks to mech vs mech PVP. If they really balanced pvp you wouldn't have as many parts outside of cosmetic differences, you'd have a very watered down build experience. Until they build an entire game from the ground up and focus on pvp exclusively, you're not gonna have a balanced pvp armored cored. You can't nerf a weapon into the ground and make it viable against pve and pvp just because it's not fun to play against because that ruins how it feels in pve.
