I remember playing this game in middle school and being so confused as to who the ‘good guys’ were. First time I really grappled with the concept of “shades of grey”
- Ahh such great memories ... i don't know if you gamers remember the Tips & Tricks magazine. - I was the winner of Armored Core 3 Civil War Contest, & was published in the Tips & Tricks Issue 100 😎 - I was also a major coffee addict at the time. smh 🤐😬😵💫/ lol epic times indeed 😁💯❤✌
@@kuroe8678well I mean they are just the middle man for jobs even your handler is nervous about you destroying the controller union would be the good guys as they wanted an end to the controller
I'm only 25 minutes into this video, but damn, this is probably the best AC player I've ever seen lmao. As an Armored Core fan I could only dream of being this good.
Um i guess yea its just.. when other games say best player... you can see it.. even on console fps. not being a dick just.. hate when people overhype and i get obsessed to see what they see
@@genericyoutubeusername6462 ...The only thing I can glean from this comment is that you seem to disagree with how highly I rate the player's skill. Which, sure, why not; but the fact still remains that this player is extraordinarily talented. That isn't an opinion or "overhype" -- it's proven right in the video. Other than that, I'm not really sure what you're trying to say with that initial paragraph.
The first armored core game i ever played and fell in love with it all, i only wish it had been a little easier to uncover its secrets and hidden mechanics, back then it took me years to finally get op-i lol i never minded the difficulty of from soft armored core, but i must say the secrecy and lack of info is so very unfortunate, so many fans potentially lost to the nonsense
@@Vaxsysl Yeah but as a kid it made the difficulty level far too hard for 8-11 year Olds. I was pretty thorough myself playing games back then and I got roadblocked playing the game cuz I wasn't powerful enough to win the arena or mission level I was on so it never got finished and I eventually traded it back to gamestop. Without a guide it was useless to discover secrets you don't know about. That's like asking a player to 100% complete a dark souls game their first time playing.
@@SeviathTheHumanDrago You say to difficult for AC3... Dunno, depends on the person I guess. I was 10 when I got PS1 and I got Armored Core: Master of Arena the next year, mech combat seemed fun. It became one of my favorite games and I got to 100% the same year, without no-Overweight or HumanPlus enhancements from the original as I did now it existed or that it was a thing (you can imagine how I wracked my brains trying to find a way how to unlock it). And I consinder that game to be way harder than AC3 is as aim is not as accurate and getting to the last arena required you to have 0 losses in Arenas, which I did end up doing. Never giving up and practice makes perfect. Back to AC3, I was 13 when we purchased PS2 and I sought out Armored Core 2 and 3 immediately. The happiness I felt when I finally unlocked the enhancements via op-intensify, I still remember the yelling and playing through the game two more times just to make sure to unlock everything. My point is, that vagueness in games contributed to having more open mind about how things work and how to get things done more than the schools ever did. I always liked how games made me think and how secrets were well hidden behind vague clues and good "logical" guessing.
Another way to beat Fanfare is to run him out of ammo. You can even kill Huntress with the blade, napalm rockets, bomb dispensers, rockets, or cannons before all the MTs get destroyed.
I’m really sad I wasn’t, and am still unable to play the old armored cores. Mainly cus I don’t have a pc to use an emulator on, and I never had these games. Thanks for uploading this
@@lostvayne9146 No matter what kinda ac game it will be we are very much looking forward to it! though personally I feel they will be doing a mesh between 4 and 5s mechanics
Saw a pro pilot when I saw that the first upgrade to the AC was booster and generator. Howitzer was no shocker either; non Moonlight blades are kinda too weak unless you strike in the air. Weapon of choice was almost signature for many of us. And you showed understanding the game in the way you strafe-move. But then you surprised me with core choice, and looking on it does make a lot of sense; I was just never too much into offensive cores. Nice footage :)
My sincere hope is that AC6 uses this game/silemt line as a basis for mechanics. These two had the best movement and weapon combination. Granted it invalidated most heavyweight builds due to their inability to keep mobile AC on screen. So buffing their turn rate for sure. But good god watching you run through this game was perfect! That clean movement and aim with consistency brought me back to the many hours playing my brother. An absolute joy to watch!
I fought every AC in the arena, except for Valkyrie. I had to take her to the parking garage, literally could not beat her in the open. I felt a little validated seeing you struggle with her as well!
I know youve been playing for awhile lol first thing you do is upgrade the generator and boosters, nice. i started over on ps2, this time i am going to play the entire game with the mech setup you start out with,, only thing i can change are the weapons and components etc but not the head, core, arms and legs
what are your favorite parts to use? first playthru and i find myself sticking to a machine gun and sword or howizer with a "stable" humanoid build with those optional parts that make you turn faster and lock on wider. back parts overweigh me and i only ever really use the extensions that work as radiators or generators. i find it to be a very reliable build if a bit boring
Was this done on original hardware? Or was it emulation if it was emulation can you provide links on them id love to get this on my pc instead of my ps2
i know this video is a little old and you might not be paying attention to the comments, but could you list out the build you use for most of the video? Im trying to find a good spot to copy it down but your menuing is so efficient lol

Yeah, I imagine they will have a similair situation with this newest armored core as well

So, global cortex wasn't the good guys after all ?
@@kuroe8678well I mean they are just the middle man for jobs even your handler is nervous about you destroying the controller union would be the good guys as they wanted an end to the controller
With AC6 being as popular as it is they should put the old ps2 games on the marketplace.
Very cool. AC3 is probably my favorite in the series.
I'm only 25 minutes into this video, but damn, this is probably the best AC player I've ever seen lmao. As an Armored Core fan I could only dream of being this good.
I got stuck on rank 68. I never even beat the game as a 10 year old.
Um

I actually like that vagueness in FromSoftware games. It makes you explore every nook and cranny and you are rewarded for it.

@@DeadSpaceWing Get you and your frivolous comments outta here kid now! You're excused be gone>
3:26:00 was a scary moment for me, thought I was about to restart all over again haha
My only complaint is that I wish you didn't ruin the awesome look of your mech with that chicken head part.
Badass piloting dude

AC3 had my fav soundtrack out of the franchise
Yo when will we see more playthrough s like this? This guy needs to do Silent Line
With AC6 announced, I may do this run with the other games as well. It wouldn't be on this channel though but on my personal one.
ah yes
I just lost to that squid...
And a lot of other missions
time to read the manual and ace the arena
Now that AC6 is announced, should I do a similar playthrough of the other AC games?
more ac content existing in the world is always good
@@DarkStarImperium high chance from the leaks that ac6 will be paced like ac3. can't wait!!

I had no idea that howitzer was such a monster from the getgo.
Saw a pro pilot when I saw that the first upgrade to the AC was booster and generator. Howitzer was no shocker either; non Moonlight blades are kinda too weak unless you strike in the air. Weapon of choice was almost signature for many of us. And you showed understanding the game in the way you strafe-move.

Love AC3
8:54 It looks like a Decepticon. Ii guess its because the purple coloring! hahahaha

Cool for you to play this :)
Ye, was one of our clan members
Fun stuff!
Unfortunately I was left in the PSX ones... And I still love some sound fx from the original. Like the laser blade
Love the way you move. Thanks for the nostalgia, you got a new subscriber
So must nostalgia right here.
I have to wonder if this is with default controls.
Seems like you were doing some missions and doing some robot dueling as well that’s awesome
I fought every AC in the arena, except for Valkyrie. I had to take her to the parking garage, literally could not beat her in the open. I felt a little validated seeing you struggle with her as well!
Hello! Awesome video! Could you please list your emulator settings for this playthrough? Thank you very much!
Wow you made this playthrough look easy. Which mission do you find to be the most difficult?
Lmao you really wanted a answer
I know youve been playing for awhile lol first thing you do is upgrade the generator and boosters, nice. i started over on ps2, this time i am going to play the entire game with the mech setup you start out with,, only thing i can change are the weapons and components etc but not the head, core, arms and legs

nice
I hope AC 6 plays more like 3 than 4.
Lol nope
Was this done on original hardware? Or was it emulation if it was emulation can you provide links on them id love to get this on my pc instead of my ps2
emulation, pcsx2 for pc, aether sx2 for android ( the reflectiveness of the AC is what gave it away as emulation)
The howitzer is so cheap and damaging. Really, is there no other option for left-handed weapon? Seems like the most useful option by far
Wooooot
yo
lol so much needles suffering
i know this video is a little old and you might not be paying attention to the comments, but could you list out the build you use for most of the video? Im trying to find a good spot to copy it down but your menuing is so efficient lol
Too classic

Good, now do no hit.
