@ you’re right. He’s Takayuse Yanase. He may be the same person who also designed many of the nexts/acs in armored core 4 answer. Pretty cool both series share the same design pedigree. I wish they would release another series crossover like they did with some of the Japanese gundam games back in the late 90s and early 2000s
I appreciate the fact that you are actually experimenting with all of the weapons and not just running a single build like a lot of people did when this game came out
@JeffZ1028 you can get through majority of the entire game with one of two builds that are just cheesing the game. Majority of players that weren't filtered by balteus in chapter 1 ran the most of the game with either double zimmerman shotguns speed build or double mini guns tank build. Keep in mind they were both like 20x better before they got nerfed and even then they are still better than most weapons. Edit: Not to mention on the mini gun build the prenerf songbirds would make anything in the game a joke. Im not even really complaining its just sad to see that statistically majority of players used an op play style when the game launched when the game has so many unique weapons that never really got used by anyone.
@ericr7415 I know what you mean, too many gamers nowadays just follow the meta guides and are on autopilot. They never found their own style, which is part of the fun as we see here.
I just realised, when you get hit with the coral surge, the voice tells you "you need to wake up of your conscience will forever be scattered in the coral flow" This means that everyone who was on the planet during the initial coral surge, is probably turned into coral...
It's definitely left ambiguous. But just want to point out that Frued is described as just being an ordinary man. And there's no mention of his augmentation gen. The former might be talking more about his mentality and not going the Snail route of upgrades. But kinda funny they suggest the (previous) top rank could actually be an unaugmented human, and that piloting an AC is possible without.
I like the Enforcer a lot He is a pretty underrated Boss He has everything this game mechanics have teach you Missiles for long range and to keep you on the move Pulse weapon for suppressive fire and to counter your shields The laser blade for CQC The Laser Cannon that deals a lot of damage And the Area of Effect attack if you keep too close to him Another thing is that this guy is called EL SICARIO in the Spanish version of the game The AI "Hitman" that the PCA left behind in other to deal with intruders
Wow I never knew there was more dialogue between Hawkins and Pater before you ambush them, nor had Flatwell leave on me. You playthrough has shown me that there's still stuff I don't know about this game even a year later.
I love how they add that detail of Rusty getting fielded against Michigan. Makes the stakes of the decision so much higher. It feels like such a big turning point, and makes you question whether Rusty will die, or even just be pitted fully against each other based on your choice.
i'd def rec using quad legs on ng+ the hover mode lets you explore and appreciate the verticallity of the level design in a new way plus can help snoop out all the hidden stuff
mapo remember you can use assault boost to get higher or lower more quickly. they really come in handy on the level where you free fall and have the lasers sniping you. or when you accidentally fall off a ledge and dont think you have enough EN left for a regular slow boost
@EldenRingPlayer-q7c If I didn't watch it how else would I know I want it, I've never even played any AC before. Besides I don't care much for spoilers, I will likely finish Mapo's LP first before getting it myself, same as I did with Dark Souls games xd
Wow this game man I started replaying after watching you and it’s like nothing else it’s strange that it’s my first March game but I somehow know that it has to be the best mech game
It's interesting that the localizers decided to call Snail's AC Open Faith, considering his emblem is a face being split down the middle. It's literally an "Open Face".
Huh, at 1:16:36, the AP said 00621. Also, G1 Michigan does not have both expansions. He only has Pulse Protection. You must have destroyed his Pulse Protection really quick with the Plasma Missiles.
Personally, I think that the laser blade is trash. Even when the enemy is stunned, you are likely to miss with at least one of the laser blade spins. The base plasma blade is superior, as it has a charge built in and a follow up.
Yeah, I also switched to the Twinblade as soon as it was available. The Laser Blade is too unreliable unfortunately, although it looks pretty epic. And the Lance is a great gap closer, especially when you combine it with the pile bunker, it makes for a great meele build.
I hope you try out more of the melee weapons. As much as I too love the laser blade. All the melee weapons function very differently, and have some cool features.
Replayed the game over the last days and yeah three runs are actually necessary to unpack the story Trough your run im getting more dialogue because i can focus on it Theres just too much going on in the fights
Hey man, I'm not sure if you know since you keep experimenting and changing guns all the time but each gun type has an "effective range" and when you try to shoot outside of it (for example the machine guns are rather close range, if you try to use them at 500 unitus or more) you will see the message "ricochet" and will do less damage and less stagger.
Yes they pilot the ACs from the inside because they constantly die inside of them, there’s just some odd instances where they “withdraw” but we still see an AC blow up lol
I think you should really read the distance ui and optimal range of weapons. Using shotguns and staying midrange, watching you ricochet all your projectiles get a little annoying sometimes

1:21:13 Mapo sounding like V1 himself
right? great minds think alike xD
i love mapo getting into shit-talking the arena opponents
Fun fact: both that pca transformer boss and the melander core set was designed by one of Japanese mech designers who designed Optimus Prime
there's also an ac designed by a mechanical designer who worked on gundam, ghost in the shell, evangelion and ergo proxy
@ you’re right. He’s Takayuse Yanase. He may be the same person who also designed many of the nexts/acs in armored core 4 answer. Pretty cool both series share the same design pedigree.

Lore wise extremely funny to have nearly no problem with Freud and subsequently get rinsed by Pater and Hawkins of all people
I appreciate the fact that you are actually experimenting with all of the weapons and not just running a single build like a lot of people did when this game came out
@@ericr7415 That's why his playthroughs are some of the best. It was so frustrating to see so many people use the exact same build.
agree, but especially he's been using the laser blade, not just a lot but good at using it as well. there's a lot of satisfying laser blade slashes
That's a lie😅 No way you get far in the game without switching up a build, but if they did, idk why you're complaining. Styles make fights.

yes, she says "i'm a rubiconian with no body" instead of something that would imply they were always coral
Consciousness, not conscience.
How did you miss that important note... that's kinda the whole point of her character.
Man I absolutely love this game, I’m so glad to see you enjoying it as well! I can’t wait for you to go through all the endings it’s so worth it !
Ah yes, we're slowly moving towards absolute cinema. This game is something else, man.
Something I like about NG+ is that it also alters non-decision missions so you don’t have to wait with familiar content between choices
Haha, in Flatwell's defense he leaves because his AC is destroyed and he has to eject. Good episode! Really looking forward to the next one
Yeah, his AC's pretty fragile and both Vespers are packing weapons that can straight up melt you
52:14 Now that's efficent speed. Honestly Enforcer is probably my favourite, I just think it's so cool and the OST gos really hard.
It's definitely left ambiguous. But just want to point out that Frued is described as just being an ordinary man. And there's no mention of his augmentation gen.

Really like those new emblems. Very stylish, and creative. Middle Flatwell deciding to just be a meatshield for a bit is kinda funny.
I like the Enforcer a lot
He is a pretty underrated Boss
He has everything this game mechanics have teach you
Missiles for long range and to keep you on the move
Pulse weapon for suppressive fire and to counter your shields
The laser blade for CQC
The Laser Cannon that deals a lot of damage
And the Area of Effect attack if you keep too close to him
Another thing is that this guy is called EL SICARIO in the Spanish version of the game
The AI "Hitman" that the PCA left behind in other to deal with intruders
Wow I never knew there was more dialogue between Hawkins and Pater before you ambush them, nor had Flatwell leave on me. You playthrough has shown me that there's still stuff I don't know about this game even a year later.
Flatwell didn’t actually leave for no reason. He was actually at critical.
All allied AC’s have those kind of lines.
@@Linksays I know that, but I think Mapo thinks he just bails for no reason lmao
@@truexenith8596 Yeah I noticed that too.
Also in my defense you didn’t specify if you knew it’s a “death” line lol
Pater crying after you kill Hawkings always makes me so sad.
and then he immediately turns sociopath and starts daydreaming about his new rank now that Hawkins is dead 😂
Bro he's a sociopath he doesn't have feeling. It's all performance to fit in
@moonrabbit2334 Sociopaths have a lack of empathy, not feelings. Sociopaths are very emotional and have a need for relationships.
Chartreuse's emblem is one of my favorites
This boss is really underrated imo, feels really good to fight him
I love how they add that detail of Rusty getting fielded against Michigan. Makes the stakes of the decision so much higher. It feels like such a big turning point, and makes you question whether Rusty will die, or even just be pitted fully against each other based on your choice.
38:58 You just found a sketch of what the Red Guns actually look like
A-ran-- S-rank TH-camr
i'd def rec using quad legs on ng+ the hover mode lets you explore and appreciate the verticallity of the level design in a new way plus can help snoop out all the hidden stuff
all the AC coloring you do looks amazing
Ah yes the good ol strats of 'equip two close range spread fire cannons, now time to keep my distance up on a clifftop.'
Can't wait for him to see the other side of things and all the new content behind NG+!
Watch out for those plasma missiles Mapo!
mapo remember you can use assault boost to get higher or lower more quickly. they really come in handy on the level where you free fall and have the lasers sniping you. or when you accidentally fall off a ledge and dont think you have enough EN left for a regular slow boost
Blessed dog appearance!
I might get this game it's so much fun!
I am sold as well, i am getting it at the next sale.
you really should, 1000 hours in and I am still having designing AC's,
Why are you watching spoilers for a game you don’t play this far through
@EldenRingPlayer-q7c Personally because I don't like mech media at all. So I am trying to get myself hyped to it .
@EldenRingPlayer-q7c If I didn't watch it how else would I know I want it, I've never even played any AC before. Besides I don't care much for spoilers, I will likely finish Mapo's LP first before getting it myself, same as I did with Dark Souls games xd
"Thankyou for your co-operation."
Wow this game man I started replaying after watching you and it’s like nothing else it’s strange that it’s my first March game but I somehow know that it has to be the best mech game
It's interesting that the localizers decided to call Snail's AC Open Faith, considering his emblem is a face being split down the middle. It's literally an "Open Face".
Damn, ending here means we're eating GOOD next episode, I can't wait!
Ahh, the vertical platforming stage, AC's poison swamp equivalent.
This game... Incredible. Depth 1 is pretty annoying, but I absolutely love this section of the story and gameplay.
Indescribable hype to see the first ending 😭
Huh, at 1:16:36, the AP said 00621. Also, G1 Michigan does not have both expansions. He only has Pulse Protection. You must have destroyed his Pulse Protection really quick with the Plasma Missiles.
Someone teach this man how to chain melee cancels
TELL EM MEAN OLD MICHIGAN DIED OF A BAD FALL!!!
Man that autonomous weapon took me like 15 tries and I was cheesing. Too much skill
Those emblems are awesome
double shotgun and double songbird all the way.... occasionally the stungun too
Personally, I think that the laser blade is trash. Even when the enemy is stunned, you are likely to miss with at least one of the laser blade spins. The base plasma blade is superior, as it has a charge built in and a follow up.
The base plasma blade, rusty twinblade and laser lance are the best ones depending on the situation
Yeah, I also switched to the Twinblade as soon as it was available. The Laser Blade is too unreliable unfortunately, although it looks pretty epic.
And the Lance is a great gap closer, especially when you combine it with the pile bunker, it makes for a great meele build.

1:22:30 they 100% should've done something like that lmao
V.V is so likable
He’s so kinda and genuine compared to V.VIII
Hey man, I'm not sure if you know since you keep experimenting and changing guns all the time but each gun type has an "effective range" and when you try to shoot outside of it (for example the machine guns are rather close range, if you try to use them at 500 unitus or more) you will see the message "ricochet" and will do less damage and less stagger.
I'm not very sure about the lore but the humans don't actually sit in the ac do they?
Yes they pilot the ACs from the inside because they constantly die inside of them, there’s just some odd instances where they “withdraw” but we still see an AC blow up lol
1:36:51 He took an entire heal bro???????
I think you should really read the distance ui and optimal range of weapons. Using shotguns and staying midrange, watching you ricochet all your projectiles get a little annoying sometimes
DOGGO!
the soundtracks in this game remind me of deus ex human revolution
