I'm not too big on the armored core series the only one I've really played was armored core for answer and honestly I enjoyed it and V just feels small in comparison, apparently this time you play with some support characters that I had a hard time remembering who is who since everyone kinda sounds the same, in "For Answer" after every mission your told how much you earned for the mission then taking to a shop menu where oyu can buy anything you need helmets, guns, armor, paint, chips, fries but in AC V you don't have any of that your basically stuff with your mech the way it is, another issue I have is the weapons after about two mech a fights you'll use up about all of your ammo and it will switch to a shooting some kind of blue paint cloud thats a substitute which is about as much use as using a meat mallet to chop down a tree. The story gets hard to follow right from the get-go one mission you chase down this mech that was leader of a resistance then the guy you chased gets killled by someone else then they leave next the story jumps ahead a year later and your part of the resistance Idk if I'm even playing at the same guy?. so I think the real exp, I want in the online play which I don't have it seems online play has become the new stock market for game companys everything that made a game good is getting taken out for DLC making the game less fun then it could have been. but no people get hyped up fora game buy it and pay more for an exp. that already should be included but no they keep feeding into this madness and thats why games are like they are today its all a money thing now. Listen I know you guys need money but you can't get rich off the poor. but you can get rich off the stupid I suppose.

1 First off the graphics are a major step backwards you can tell far more time was spent on the cinematic then the game

2 This game is like chromehounds which was average at best would have much rather had the same armored core from before

3 The controls got changed to a far more irritating layout

4 Gone is the great mech battles with quick boost and thrusters and flight- that's right NO flight only jumping

5 Should be called Chromehounds 2: we suck again or Armored Core V destruction of a franchise

6 There is one good point as it has a multiplayer system so you can all play on xbl together

Seems like everything Namco Bandai touches turns to feces these days
