Heavy armor looks to be more of a temporary pwer up with limited customization, the powersuit type Arsenals will still be the main focus of the game.

>>23366291 (OP)
It sounds like you can't change the weapons or armor on heavy armor. The difference in loadouts seems like it might be just being able to choose different models. I assume the ability to transform is the primary reason for limiting it like that.

>>23366291 (OP)
So it's you vs aliens instead of other pilots and robots?

>>23366291 (OP)
Was looking forward to the game but now I am just disappointed.

>>23366431
No, the Neun are an entire group of Outers for you to fight. The immortals seem to be made of of mutated fauna and machines.

>>23366291 (OP)
Looks interesting.
That gauge being the time limit, the ammo count, and the health bar for the heavy armor is a bit much though.

>>23366374
Honestly, it doesn't even look like you can choose different models. There IS a different model in one of the trailers (that nonetheless still uses the same shoulder cannons), but I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't pilotable. Especially if it only differs in appearance. But who knows.
Maybe in DXM3 we'll have both customizable suits and customizable mechs.

>>23366374
Disregard the deleted post.
I didn't even realize the trailer actually did feature slightly different models. So you might be right, though I wish you weren't. It makes sense then that the only customization they showed off for it was visual, meaning it's all there is.
Shame. Maybe DXM3 will offer more, as long as they don't decide to start from scratch again.

Also confirmed by fami2.

>>23366374
tbf I thought all the mechs in the first game looked the same anyway. They also felt like they played about the same. The build variety wasn't great.

In some of the gameplay footage you can see him two handing a heavy weapon, blocking his left hand slot, so this game is perfect for me. My niche power armor fetish is heavy two handed weapons, so I'm sold. Surprisingly rare to find sometimes since AC doesn't do it.

>>23367057
First game had a couple of weapons like that, so it's good to see more in this one.

>>23367057
AC should have course corrected from allowing standard weapons in the left hand long ago, but it took the series until its fifth PS2 game to even start acknowledging the existence of analog sticks, so it's no wonder nothing was ever done about that.

>>23366291 (OP)
Lol they let you ride on the alien horse when you have a jet pack? I love pointless shit like this.

I like that they're getting away from being a mid Armored Core clone and doing it's own thing now. The aliens look pretty boring and grey but the gameplay looks good. It'll be fun to explore and get into fights. I just hope they add enough enemy pilot fights since those were the only non retarded enemies in the first game (and it looks the same here).

>>23367165
Well, the horse doesn't seem to use any stamina to ride, so it's probably faster in the long run than switching on boosters, switching them off, waiting to regen, switching them on again, etc

>>23367188
In the gameplay I saw it looks like while you're flying if you run out of stamina you hardly descend at all and can still move forward while your stamina recharges so you can boost again.

Maybe flight is unlocked later or staying in the air without stamina is a skill you unlock.

>>23366291 (OP)
Found 40 mins of a leaked PC demo.

Good trailer and footage.

Apparently there’s going to be a whole Cars game mini game in this one.

I wish someone with early access would actually pay attention to how aiming works, since even the official gameplay breakdown ignores it. But it does seem like there's explicit/visible aim assist when you're not hardlocked, so you can almost pretend there's a tiny lockbox in the middle. Should be quite enough for MKB.
Also
>color settings under HUD
Nice, too bad the UI is still bland and flat - just like in Dolls Nest. Cool HUDs are becoming a lost art.

>>23368169
Not bad but how is it better than PSO2/NG or XCX now?

>>23372458
Well unlike XCX, you actually have to play the game and not micromanage a bunch of timers.

>>23372530
>he didn't micromanage the spacings and hop into his discharged Skell as if it's a shield

>>23372458
>how is it better than NGS
They'd have to actively try to make it worse than NGS. And fuck you for reminding me that game exists.
>or XBX
"Holy shit! Two cakes!" Ideally three, if that one also gets a faithful sequel.

Will it be good?

New one handed ranged weapons trailer
https://x.com/dxm_info/status/1942524059075441067?t=nSJJZQZrNcTFlHLBLhAo9A

A bit disappointed that the big robots are limited

>>23366374
They've shown a dual katana HA before so maybe you can change your arm equipment, or maybe it's just a different standardized setup.
For better or worse, this is fertile ground for the same kind of DLC they made for the first game where you'd get full body skins for your arsenal, but this time around they might make DLCs with specific setups as it looks like HA uses the same animation rig and animations as the human models anyway, don't be surprised if such a thing happens.
>>23367057
Same, I'm very glad we don't have AC's issue of mechs one handing impossibly long weapons, even if it's totally true for HA.
One of my greatest /m/ fetishes is two handed stuff like buster launchers and sniper rifles and this is one of those rare games that do it right.

>>23375996
>mechs one handing impossibly long weapons
yeah this always bugged me too

>>23366291 (OP)
The movement is giving me anthem vibes, which was honestly the 1 good part of that game.

Oh come on, are they afraid of getting sued by Disney?

>>23378147
fist weapons in a mech game?
that's the shit right there

>>23378147
Yeah, I think I'm buying at this point, this is way better than the first game no matter how you look at it

It's weird because I've been on a /m/ game kick but after bouncing through the AC roster I ended up just replaying DxM from top to bottom again.

Even after revisiting fa I think DxM just has my favorite movement. Due in part to how fun blinking is and the fact that you can control the distance you blink with player input timing. Combine that with the speed of movement and the overall control and it's just hard to get that experience in any other game.

>>23383758
Blinking is fun though
>that time you accidentally blink out of bounds or into an acid pool

>>23384288
You know it's crazy I used to suicide blink all the time when I played on the switch
But I guess it was just a framerate thing as I've only done it twice and like 30 hours post acquisition on pc

missiles trailer - https://x.com/dxm_info/status/1945060788382867673?t=BIePkiSWBft0mtpmVUSwGQ
Those incredibly slow high explosive missiles seem like something made for pvp harassment.

I am cautiously optimistic about this game.

I am recklessly optimistic about this game.

I am moderately optimistic about this game.

I am unknowingly optimistic about this game.

I'll be avoiding this one, senpaitachi. Sorry. Here's hoping they won't be retarded for the proper DxM 2 - If they survive this flop that is.

New novel, Star Liberator - https://x.com/dxm_info/status/1945793243565944836?t=iB7eg-ERIgwtOU_-CCtd3g
The first novel, Star Reclaimer, was an adaptation of the first game. I wonder what this one is since the cover doesn't suggest it's adapting Titanic Scion. Maybe a novel that bridges the time period between the games.

>>23390657
Why does /m/ hate powersuits?

>>23390657
The first game sucked so much it doesn't count, so this is actually the first DxM game.

>>23391622
>gbitch image
>buzzwords
That's a tourist.

>>23390874
That kind of looks like the first teaser visual for the sequel.

>>23391624
The first game was better than AC6.

>>23391710
It wasn't even better than shoveling dog turds into your mouth.

>>23391721
You know all about that I see.

>>23391622
I like them. Not at the expense of pilotable giant mecha though.

>>23391642
>flop
>buzzword
>t. actual newfag

>>23391710
AC6 is an insult to the series, but DXM was just an insult to itself honestly. It's not that I was expecting a renamed AC game (which it wasn't), but I had to try and enjoy it in spite of the weightless permaflight, some weapon types feeling like absolute shit to use, the dumb characters, the forced red highlights, legs not only being less varied but effectively useless, the loot mechanics, and the on-foot mode that existed for some reason.
I was still hoping they'd refine all that for the sequel instead of starting from scratch, but what they're doing with TS looks fun enough on its own, so it doesn't feel like much of a loss all things considered. Meanwhile Project Six might actually be releasing relatively soon rather than never.

>>23390598
>Shields actually deflect damage, instead of reducing dmg.
WHAT IS THIS TECHNOLOGY?

>>23391729
Yeah I watched you doing it you DxM loving poof.

Grim.

>>23398455
nigger what

>>23398512
They took inspirations from his designs in the first game to make shitty power armors for this one. He had nothing to do with it.

>>23398517
The designs in the first game weren't anything special. I wont blame kawamori for it, it was probably under restrictions. They were cool enough, but I couldn't tell the different between any design unless it was in the garage, and even then only the heaviest parts really stood out.

>>23398530
Mecha designs from the first one was the best thing about it. They were all basically White Glints. Now we get Anthem from Comiket.

>>23398517
That's quite a fucking stretch from

>>23398559
Yeah, I'd describe every mech in the first game as a basic white glint.
