What the point in a mech game where the mechs are as agile as people, the whole point of a mech is that its a massive, armoured machine with huge guns on it. This isnt for me, when a proper mech sim comes out i look into it, this looks like a bad looking lost planet, that game was fun, this looks naff.

I heard that you don't need to have XBL gold to download AC4 demo, a silver japanese account should do.

open your mind, when does something always have to be a certain way or else it's bad.

On the trailer ive seen it plays like Jet Force Gemini, whats the point in that, if i buy a mech game i want them to be like big heavy heaving machines, if i want to run around all over the place ill buy mario, this is only my oppinion thats all but when i see a mech game i want it to act like mechs are supposed to, if i played a mario game and he moved slowly like a mech i'd consider that a mistake too, its not about opening my mind, maybe this is a good game but i cant seriously consider it a proper mech game when these steel machines that are supposed to be 20 ft tall are running round like cartoon characters. IMO

Oh come on, so im expected to buy that they can run around like mountin goats and fly like birds, any large machine we currently build is slow, and adding real life attributes like this is what makes a game for me, im into realism as much as possible. Its just harder to make a game when you have to think about how these machines will really move instead of having them fly all over the place as fast as a cheetah.

you only need gold to participate in multiplayer games online, everything else comes with the silver account, sometimes you get it a bit later but it will be there for ya, thats the whole point of the silver account, free advertising for MS and devs.

I missed the steel batalion game because i didnt have live and its not active anymore, so thats that, i played the chromehounds demo and it seemed a bit poor graphically and the main game seemed a bit dull and uninventive, if its any good online though ill get a pre owned copy, are people still online with that game though, noone on my freinds list plays it. (maybe because ive never been on the game)

The armored core games are known for having a huge amount of customization that other mech games lack one of these attributes is your mech size and weight. Sure while flying and using boosters you can move fast(doing so using fuel or energy) but if you build a heavy mech with alot of heavy firepower you manuvarability while walking will be very cumbersome. obviously they aren't going to show that aspect in a trailer where excitement and action is what they want to show. If anything the armored core games big appeal is building a mach to suit your playing preference

2nd edit apparently the word s t y l e gives a forbidden message wierd glitch to say the least

Yeah, and it rocks too. Moonfly likes mechsims, so he must own it. If not, he should . It's the best Mech game I have played since MechWarrior3 on PC.

To me, the biggest disappointment with AC4 is going to be the lack of a persistent war (like with Chromehounds).  It is just going to have 4v4 mech battles (if I remember right).  I thought From Software was going to take the good things they did with Chromehounds (customization, persistent war) and ramp up the intensity factor to 11.  Instead, they look like they fell victim to becoming another "cookie cutter" shooter/deathmatch game in order to try to increase sales.

OFFS! As soon as i saw this title i looked at "newly released demos" and it's not there :(

Is it possible to make a japanese account or have microsoft stopped us doing that?
