proof the pilots dont die with their ac

[twiggy]

if you play the mission *attack the dam complex* on new game plus, youll realize that iguazu and volta dont actually die when you destroy their ac. at the end of the mission walter tells michigan that he will pay for the repairs and the fact that iguazu messages you afterwards too..

It doesn't prove anything other than it's arbitrary, when you're sent to assassinate someone they die if the story requires it.

you'd expect an AC to have some kind of ejection mechanism for the pilot. Acs and augmented pilots are likely very expensive

Lots of people dying on their ACs.

[D. Flame]

Pilots die with their ACs all the time. It's just like fighter Jets IRL. Those jets have ejector seats. Sometimes the pilots can eject, and sometimes they can't.

[imbrock]

Doesnt Michigan say something to the effect of "You better keep your hands on your ejectors until the Liger Tail is ready"? That basically confirms the need to manually eject when things go south. Sometimes theres time and sometimes there isn't.

so basically its dynasty warriors

Wrong. It's been explained many times that augmented pilots die because their vitals depend on the AC, and non augs can eject.

Isn't Freud non augmented? Pretty sure he does an aaagghh as he dies, though he was pretty hardcore maybe he just wanted to die fighting.

[Fenix]

Isn't the a mission where one AC pilot tells the other to eject?
Edit To be exact:
KING: Chartreuse! Withdraw! Abandon your AC!

yes Defeat the independent mercenaries King/Chartreuse.

King tells her to withdraw and abandon her AC if you down her first.

Also this is not true, augment pilots can eject. Whether they do or don't depends on the plot.

This is the correct answer

[vamirez]

Playing through the game there are instances where AC pilots survive, but most of the time they seem to die.

Examples for surviving: If you betray two dudes in NG+ in an early mission, they don't die. Your allies in the Ice Worm fight don't die.

I thought that this was quite apparent.
