Dangaioh Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 alright... who got it, and what types of parts, weapons and upgrades have you done? btw, does anyone like the dual thumbstick control use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wes Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 I got it - blasted thru it one 4-day weekend. I mainly use hover-legs, and whatever guns get the job done. I haven't messed with the dual-stick control. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dangaioh Posted November 1, 2004 Author Share Posted November 1, 2004 No chance you atleast tweaked the body parts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phyrox Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 (edited) I've got it. I used the new control set up for about 5 minutes. I like the old way better, so I stick with it. I was having a good time with it, but then classes piled on the work, and GTA just came out...so it will be on the back-burner for a little bit. One thing I didn't like however was the new "reload" delay for solid ammo. Ever since my first AC game (Arena I think) I have used a chain-gun as my primary weapon, but this new reload makes it kinda...suck. Well, it isn't the reload pause alone, it is the horrible accuracy of machine guns now as well. I can understand some rebalancing and whatnot, but my usual load-out is crap for just about every mission. I tried out a few concepts, but like I said, other things have gotten in the way since then. I still like the game, it is just a bit frustrating that I have to totally rethink my AC design theories. edit - my standard "take most missions and arena opponent" AC was characterized by: quad legs chain gun on back flamethrower or empty left hand bazooka or lazer rifle right hand If anyone else can make that work as well for Nexus as it has for me in the previous half-dozen AC games, let me know.

Dangaioh Posted November 1, 2004 Author Share Posted November 1, 2004 I know the feeling... so far my load out is: 1 machine gun right. 1 pulse gun left 1 hand gun right stow area 1 knife left stow area 2 of the same missile set up for back weapons. So far using energy based weapons without tweaking your mech and buying some better equipment can actually mean you are screwed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke Togo Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 I've been a fan single the original game, and everythign I have heard from other AC fans is that the game wasn't worth my time. I don't think I've heard a single good thing about Nexus, and just alot of complaints. This is a tired series, and its time for somethign fresh.

DarkPhoenix Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 Yeah, I loved the AC series up to Silent Line, but Nexus jumped the shark. The already frustrating adventure in having to beat preformance goals to get secret parts, already a pain in the ass in Silent Line, got even more excessive in Nexus. The reload thing I could tolerate and understand, but the nerfing of boosting/flying, and outright removal of OP-Intensify (formerly Human Plus) that had been in the game since day one sealed it for me.
