Cmon devs ride to hype train of AC6 releasing BO2

[P e l l i]

We need this game... it's been so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ long already and last test had almost no improvements. dc penalties are still on the game so what't we waiting for

[Lovecraft Cat]

Game will release within a month of AC6 launching and get crushed by it. Then Bamco will blame westerners not liking gundam instead of their own incompetent teams and management.

[CardinalS1]

100% DOA, AC6 will smash this games already tiny playerbase because of these devs taking longer than a 10 year dead franchise

[DecadeRX]

How many Gundam suits will be in AC6? None, you say?

Pretty sure people who like Gundam are still going to want to play a Gundam game, and if the like Armored Core, they'll play that, too.

So we're just going to ignore people who like Gundam for what's in Gundam, and don't see AC and Gundam as interchangeable?

I'm sure people will love AC6, but there isn't a Chobham Alex in it, or a ReZEL, or a Nu, or an Atlas, or a Gouf. There is a reason people like these things, and I doubt AC6 will be able to imitate half of the mobile suits from the various shows and stories.

@DecadeRX
Gundam fans are a minority and that's a fact. So you ride the tide and bring people before it comes or risk being drown by it right after and get overshadowed by a game of the same genre

It's marketing. You release early or wait till people have time and want more mecha after playing AC6. It doesnt even matter how the game plays, what matters and folks see is the genre and what the game is about aka Mechas. That's it.

A minority compared to what? This is literally a game FOR Gundam fans. People who like the game are gonna play it. It's done well enough to continue for like 5 years on the PS5, and gets weekly updates.

I don't see what marketing has to do for a product people keep losing their minds about on this board because they can't get it already. Marketing is to bring hype, but if you'd read the crazy-ass posts some people put on here, after... What, a year? It's clear people still want it.

For a game like this on Pc without crossplay to stick and work you need to throw a lot of people so after most of them fall off we still have someone around.

What I mean is. GBO2 cant survive on steam with only the fans since mechas on the west are NICHE, and most fans are likely already invested on playstation and the casuals after the AC6 announcement right now might be looking to get into mechas so they need something to get their hands on.


Also, this place is not a representation of anything.

who cares?

Also Steam version will be behind in content according to devs. So not like crossplay would be doable

Me lol. I do want this game to have moderate sucess stay on 2k players 24/7 and have no prob with matchmaking. So the more people it reach and stick with it the better


Unless they decide for whatever reason they'll bring MSGO back up again. Then this game can burn for all I care

No, it won't be behind. Where did they ever say otherwise?

the game has survived for years already with a very "niche" fanbase. just not on steam. the game wont have a crazy amount of players, but it wont be dead. besides, AC6 also isnt for everyone, GBO2 is free, AC6 is a full priced triple A game. also, with the track record of triple A releases this year, i wouldnt get my hopes up that AC6 is gonna be good at launch. just sayin.

[arc361]

Isn't AC6 gonna be good because of its singleplayer? I know there will be multiplayer but it won't be anything like GBO2. I thought the previous games had a basic pvp multiplayer.

I also thought that from software stated the focus would be singleplayer.... So why does it matter if GBO2 comes out close or on the same date? People can play more then one game you know.

For instance I will play AC6 when I feel like it and then will swap to other multiplayer games when I wanna play games with friends. I already know someone who likes GBO2 so Its not a problem to me.

No, no, you've clearly ignored the rule where you're only allowed to like and play 1 game ever. ;p
