I'll try it when it comes out but for some reason I have a strong feeling it's just going to be like an FPS/TPS game with mechs as models, and not a mech game if people get what I mean.
Interesting to see how the transition from turn based stratagy to third person action will go.
Mechs that skate around? No thanks.
Looks kinda cool actually. I wish it was a lil bit cheaper though.

That mechanic was always around (at from FM3), but in the past games it was mostly a way for units with low Move to be able to cover more ground (and for boosting to the top of buildings for sniping).
Finally I can have my Armored Core action on PC if you get what I mean. Been dying for a japanese mecha game for the PC for a long time! <3
I'm seeing Chromehounds in this.

Hell ya, another Armored core player :P I really do wish they did make a Armored core on pc, the Classic one that is. This game remind me of it too much now.
I have played Armored Core 2, 3, and Silent Line on the PS2 and loved every minute of it. If they would have brought 4 to the PC I would be doing that over stuff like Civilization in my free time. I have good hopes for this game to be sorta like Armored Core but for the PC.
I hope it's like armored core, But honestly, i rather want armored cor 2, 3 and silent line back on pc. Armored core 4 was a bit of a let down, imo. Everything from it was change and the only good thing came from it, was more speed performance and turning.
Shame it's not the tactic game it was back on the SNES, but hey, at least it's still got the awesome customization.
Probably going to be a crappy console port.
Front Mission has gone the way of Operation Flashpoint, Fallout and Ghost Recon. They could've made a Front Mission Alternative sequel instead of this Gun Hazard successor.
Agreed, I hadn't been following this game so when I saw the announcement I thought "Fuck yeah FM is coming to PC." Sadly it' not the Front Mission I grew up playing, it's a bastardized version. It might be good for what it's worth, but it's not the game I'm looking for.

This.
I always wished Armor Core was on PC. This is close enough for now.
I know right?
Maybe I can rig up dual joysticks and see how that turns out lmao

This is nothing like Gun Hazard. Gun Hazard was a sidescroller, this is more like Armored Core.
And Alternative was the RTS-ish one, right?

It may not be Gun Hazard as in not being called "Gun Hazard 2" and not an exact replica of GH's gameplay, but the story is very Gun Hazard-ish and personally, with the Front Mission storyline completed, it doesn't need any more games (but one focusing on the 1st Huffman War would be awesome)
