Will this have first person or cockpit view?

[Chico Rodriguez]

I would like to play this properly with mouse and keyboard, Mechwarrior style. Will this be possible?

[zmanbuilder]

that would be cool in vr

You will be rewarded with motion sickness lol

I think it would cause extreme motion sickness with the speed and maneuverability the mechs can have. So most likely it won't be the case.

playing star wars squadrons in vr felt horrible, i was sick felt like i was going to throw up, but i built a tolerance for vr and could do barrel roll with no issue now.

ginger really helps btw

You get used to cockpit view with head tracking in other games/sims. Takes practice.

I mean there has been first person mode in some of he older games. Hasn't been around in a while though. If not I'm more than sure that people will make a mod for it.

Perhaps, but this game is a wee bit faster than those.

you greatly underestimate the speed of armored core, and it also doesn't make sense with AC's actual gameplay as your cockpit view would be an active detriment to your ability to target enemies even if you could keep up with the speed. Having a large FOV is really important for many weapon types and judging how you should be moving to avoid attacks.

Just play Mechwarrior if that's what you want.

Nah. I want a proper Japanese mecha sim. This is as close as we're getting for now.

if you want anything deserving of the name sim armoured core aint it.

no previous armoured core game had anything but 3rd person that i remember, considering your quick boosters could throw you 20m sideways in a second flat it just sounds like a recipe for disorientation

Also i feel like the field of view for a cockpit would be narrower than the weapons lock arcs from previous games

Same. Armored Core was the best in first person on PS1.

I wouldn't buy without it.

If someone can handle Descent/Overload/Everspace 2 in first person, they'll be fine with Armored Core 6. This game is cake to the levels of disorientation and nausea a weak person would face in those.

Nothing wrong with providing the option.

Other armored core games had this.

Huh... Out of curiosity. would the original Doom 1 have caused you to feel motion sickness as well? o.o

I know that the past AC games had a button combo that could be done to get into both First Person and Stationary Camera (camera sticks to its position while the AC can move around, made for cool pics/video). And I think some games even allowed it as a choice in options. That said, Ill stick with third-person regardless, First Person made me barf.
