Let's talk about how Chromhounds online mode was the greatest multiplayer mech experience ever made

I still have my copy in my room. I pawned off my 360 earlier today but I kept Chromehounds for the memories.

>Last mecha thread got deleted
I blame OP for using that image to start with. He clearly wanted a Franxx thread. Glad it didn't, but still.

Mecha is inherently TRASH
based mods

Armored Core VI WHEN!?

literally never

Damn I love the thick brown OG

Is that the standat uniform?

Mommy!

I like mecha in theory but almost every mech game ends up disappointing me. I wish there was more stuff like Front Mission and less super robot shit.

The artist is not the same as in X right? the originals looks different...

SRWX has a different OG artist yeah.

I mean, Franxx is a mecha anime, is it not? Why WOULDN'T it be mecha-related?

We'll never get Front Mission again because it was a rare case where creator and a small team got to realize their vision over the course of five games.

because it's anigay and not vidya games

It's strange because the idea of piloting a kick ass mech sounds perfect for a video game, but no studio has ever developed a game in this genre that truly stands out.

Sad I don't like that one. I prefer semen demons like op pic, also dude mc looks chad as well.

It's an ambitious concept. You need to strike a balance between complex yet fun controls and at the same time have enough resources left to make good and varied missions.

They used to you know, Armored Core, MechWarrior, Heavy Gear...

Probably because you have ridiculous standards?

It's not that ambitious. The mecha audiance is just too small for any studio to devote the necessary resources.

cause its shit

So little mecha action desu and relied in muh teenage drama. Even anime that are more about character than robot don't pull that shit often.

wasnt the latest episode like 3 minutes of fighting then the rest was just them talking?

I feel it's a crime how few super robot games there are compared to the more "realistic" mech shitbot vidya. We need more games where you fight giant monsters with rocket punches, chest beams, and the power of fighting spirit.

It's more than my standards. Mecha games in the west have never really blown up, despite the modern nerd culture that should jump on board for a good giant robot vidya. Do people not care about mecha, or is it a lack of good games/media?

Japanese mecha is fucking trash and I will never understand the appeal of it.

>no mecha game with extra peripheral to monitor the player hearth rate and microphone to determine if he's hot blooded enough to even start the mech

Somebody try and justify how a giant humanoid tank/aircraft could be in any way effecient. Oh wait, they can't because they aren't. It's even worse when the mecha exist to fight giant monsters. Imagine the materials wasted so that a giant hunk of metal can grapple with the fucker. It would likely be more cost effective for the artillery payload and repair/cleanup combined than for a single mech.

Moe mecha is garbage and so are you if you like it.

Anyhow, I'd kill for a mech game from Project Aces.

>not liking hot-blooded spirit powered mechs
>also not liking grittier fighting stomp bots
do you even have a concept of fun my dude

But thats cool user.

It's not efficient. But playing a goddamn video game, I want something awesome like a humongous fuck em up flying mech I can pilot.

>mech
>realistic
are you actually fucking retarded, you can like something that isn't realistic you know

Oh, is that designed by the Linebarrels dude? I love the thick, footless legs.

Yeah. He designed the OG mechs for SRW V.

I like both desu.
Honestly I want to have a monster v robot themed game, maybe to the point where it's squads of robots fighting monsters.
Though how'd you make a super robot game actiony and fun while keeping a good customisation system that mech games usually are known by

I find mechwarrior pretty fun. The problem I have is when the jap mechs start pulling some ZoE shit and it just looks retarded.

>watch robots do cool flashy thing
That's the appeal user, you don't have to like it but that's pretty much it

>muh realism
what a fag

ok that makes more sense, but i love both because while mw's more grounded approach is cool, something like this always feels entertain to just sit back and watch youtube.com/watch?v=Z9CW4K0RJKA&t=4s

To each his own, personally I love both western and eastern mechs. A lot of them are actually not too different functionally and design wise, I think the deal breaker is verisimilitude. Some people are obviously gonna like walking tanks more than flying suits of armor.

Why did zoids die? You'd think people would like a game thats basically mecha pokemon.

Who knows.
It got "revived" though

Game? What kind of mechs does it have?

It's SRW X-Omega. It's gatcha so don't expect much. Still it has plenty of series hell even Sentai mechs. And some non Mecha series like Godzilla and Megaman.

Man, I've had this game on my phone practically since it came out, have done a ton of events, and I still don't have enough team space to make a full roster of SSR units. What the fuck is the best way to rank up?

Any opinions on Assault Gunners? HD Edition drops tomorrow and I'm cautiously optimistic.

I want flying suits of armor piloting walking tanks.

Chicken walkers are fucking ok
If you like them then good for you, my dude.

>Liking mecha only if they are "realistic"
Die in a fire if you think like that.

no u

moar pls

Try Faselei on the Neo Geo Pocket Color.
If you can handle it being on a old portable system, it's a solid rpg/strategy mecha game.

>all these boring sluts
Dump mechs

That's not exactly my area of expertise sadly.

Then go fuck off and play Arma and stare at rendered grass faggot. I don't bitch about aerodynamics and missile payloads in fucking Ace Combat threads. Or whine about tanks in Metal Slug. You 'efficient' fags are truly the worst.

i'm just waiting for him to spam reply with all the (you)s he's gotten

Well, expand.

I think I'll stick to cute girls.

Here's a rareish vidya mecha though

Anybody play Phantom Crash? It's still one of my favorite games. I really miss the Chip AIs who would chat during battles and Mona Lisa

Sell me on it

I played the sequel.

Western mecha shouldn't even be called Mecha. Western "mecha" artists have no shame, and all your most favorite western designs were just straight stolen from Japan anyways, guaranteed. Without Japan, mecha is 99% non-existent.

Oh good, someone else posted it.
I too miss Mona Lisa. She was the first virtual idol, wasn't she? Even Hatsune Miku came after her.
The sequel is pretty good though you're gonna wish you had a specialized controller since you use every goddamn thing on that ps2 controller. Was also much harder if you didn't abuse the stock market.

literally just started this shit today, soji is the fucking man

yeah it fucking pisses me off frankly

whatever you think is western mecha is actually japanese i fucking guarantee it

also robots are fucking cool as shit you faggot

It's this kind of person right here, that's ashamed of the genre, that ruined it. "Western" mecha is straight-up aped from Japanese mecha, but they have the gall to suggest theirs is more realistic when the actual fact of the matter is that nipland has both super and real robots while the west is too cowardly to try either.

I went with Chitose so I could /u/ with Nine but Soji is probably my 3rd-favorite male OG in the history of the series.

Why must we fight over east v west, grounded or fantasical, mecha's mecha lads.

Hey man, TF2 was great.

TF2 WAS great, but it was doomed to fail because the previous game tried to latch onto an inherently fickle audience that would abandon them for the new CoD, and their PR team retardedly told mecha fans to fuck off and the game wasn't for them. The mainstream didn't have the attention span to care, and the niche was offended and didn't embrace the game out of spite.

Is there a guide to getting into X-Omega? I'd like to play it but its UI feels way more confusing than most gachashit.

If Titanfall 2 was the first game, I think it'd be a franchise with a much more overall positive perception.

Mecha is an inherently eastern thing. It's like trying to say anime can be western.

There's always akurasu I suppose.

akurasu.net/wiki/Super_Robot_Wars/X-Omega but still. I'm not sure of any other really detailed guides for it. Unless you want nip ones of course

Ok then nerd, giant robots are giant robots.

Also being released between BF1 and CoD didn't help.

I want a G Gundam game. That would be so hype.

Go play titanfall 2. It has mecha on it.
