 All right, can anybody hear me? Can anybody hear me? Oh shit, we actually live Damn, okay, I'm not gonna lie guys. This is kind of a a miracle because I didn't expect to get this to work on the first try I was expecting to Press live and then get an error message saying oh you forgot to plug in something and then oh Thanks guys My god, thank you guys so much. I appreciate it. Yeah, I I don't know today's kind of like a bunch of miracles happening right now Just because I one I didn't ever expect a live stream You know that was never something that I planned on doing to I never expected to play another armored core because You know it was 10 years and I didn't really expect they would make another one And three I never expected they would make another armored core on The day of my birthday so that we could live stream have our first live stream. So it's just a whole bunch of Crazy coincidences and to get together. So yeah tongue-tied anyway Thank you guys so much. It really means a lot for just the fact that you guys are all here is It's freaking amazing You'll have to forgive me if I Do something Stupid because this is my first live stream and I really don't know how all this stuff works I'm just kind of reading you in the chat right now and looking back at my main screen and I Don't know how much delay is here. I think there's a lot It looks like there's there's like a seven to ten second. Oh, thanks Ryan Dunn. Oh, thank you My god, thank you shines light. Thank you Ryan. I you guys you guys have no idea how oh My god, I can't believe this is happening. Um, but thank you So anyway, I think there's like a a um There's like a seven to ten second delay between what I do on the screen and when I when I thank you guys see it I don't know if that's normal. Does anybody know if that's normal for the delay to be like five to ten seconds between What I do and what you guys see Thank you guys. Thank you. Thank you. I guess I'll just do a new game while I'm waiting here Really ten seconds is normal. Holy crap. Okay. Well, I guess we're going to Go in here. Oh My god, all right. Well, let's uh, let's let's let's do this. Let's see what What happened in armored core while I was away? Okay, well, I guess we decide our brightness first. That's kind of important We'll go with eight because why not? Um master volume. I don't know how loud this is gonna be but we're just gonna assume that seven is probably good Matchmaking region sure. Yeah, let's fight the world Pilot name, uh, where's the key? Do I just type it on my keyboard? I guess that's crazy See the the last time I played armored core It was with a PlayStation 2 and you used you had a keyboard on the PlayStation 2 that you would type So The fact that I'm literally just using my real time. This is the first time I've played armored core on PC So it's kind of weird for me, but let's just go ahead and Actually, I don't know if I want everyone in the world into who I am yet. Let's just let's just do this Yeah, so that should be fine damn This is intense. I don't think I don't think you guys understand just how long it's been since I've Played an armored core game where I didn't know exactly what was going to happen and where every part was Oh shit. I think it's kind of quiet Activating cerebral control device Augmented human So this is literally the cutscene that we saw for the story mission Now armored core always does this for those of you who are kind of new the trailer for armored core is almost always the intro scene in the game So they have so far stayed completely true to our record Shit, I'm gonna move my microphone a little farther away. Oh shit. We're on a half big pot I'm gonna make it just a little bit Okay, this makes a lot more sense now that I see the actual footage Our pot was busted on the way down. So that's why we're in this pit. Oh Thank you commander 401. Oh, you're very welcome. I'm so glad the rigging series is helping for you, man You're very very welcome. I I have a story about the rigging series. I'll tell you guys later, but In the meanwhile, I'm so glad it helped out you man. Oh my god. They said the phrase Activating combat mode. That's how you know it's armored core. Oh my god. All right. Let's see. What are the controls? I know a lot of Gamers like to kind of just go into combat But I'm kind of like the kind of gamer that likes to lap out everything before I go into combat So I'm just gonna kind of Figure out what's doing what? Oh, that's laser blade. So this must be rifle. Yep. Okay Oh, so you can strafe if you Oh, wait So if I hold, oh you you automatically go into third person Mode when you hold down the fire button. That's kind of cool actually Oh, and you can use the fire button to automatically Turn around. That's pretty cool. All right. Where's the boost button? Oh shit. Okay. Oh, so there's no jump animation. You just straight up boost. Okay Okay, you can hover that's great. I'm already liking this better than armored core five Oh, you can direct your jump too What about what's this button do? Okay, those buttons don't do anything Oh, there's lock on That's over boost. Okay Okay, real quick. I gotta try something out just to see Okay, so what can we cancel over boost into because that's going to be the most important question for us How do we do some of the ground? I guess we'll just kind of figure it out as we go Oh, that's Sorry guys I just wanted to figure some stuff out before I go up there Some actions consume energy. I have noticed Let's see what we got Close What was it was a star button? Okay, this is probably a new question Radical automatically targets on enemies where there are multiple targets. The enemy does not prioritize move the camera. Okay We will target. It says keeps ac oriented You can cancel the boost into a melee Also cool to see you stream. Okay. No problem, man. Stop saying. Hey, thanks Jamal Appreciate it, bro Unfortunately, it's probably going to take me a while to get used to all these controls guys, but I will do my best So probably not going to have some extra maneuverability going on here Miss a launcher in the right shoulder RS. Okay, so the shoulder button stuff kind of makes sense I will say one of the biggest differences between this armored core and all the other ones that I'm normally used to is You're kind of drifty like the Like in the old armored core games, you had a lot more control over where you drift So if you jumped and then you like try and change direction, it was a lot more responsive But laser blade kill I'll try I'll try But in this game, it looks like Once you jump into a direction, you're kind of dedicated to it Like you're not going to be changing direction anytime soon. So I have a feeling that's going to be a lot more Okay, before that real quick, I just got to take a second to appreciate these graphics because As a fellow game developer, I know How long it takes to make all the shit in the background and I know that They're making it even though all of the players in the beginning are just going to go right past it And probably just not even notice No music. No, I think it's well. I'm just letting the the whatever sound on the game play right now Okay, really quick though. I want to see how do you if I jump? Oh So if you press jump or if you press boost while you're doing a while you're doing this you just cancel it Still don't know where was the quick boost button? Ten dollars Some anime you do always appreciate your efficiency in your videos Love how you keep the point up. You're very welcome, man. I'll do my best to keep it up. Thanks for being here on the stream I can't really explain just how These kind of graphics used to only be in the cutscenes of an armored core game And to see them actually In normal gameplay is kind of ridiculous Oh my god, look at the snow We just learned how to make those kind of particles in the new five. So I'm kind of I'm kind of noticing that right now a cranky bleep. Yeah, no We're just trying to appreciate the other people's work because you know it went into it Oh, we're smuggling ourselves in I guess we did smuggle ourselves into the planet. So that kind of makes sense Okay, quick boost. So let's see Okay, I'm not using a classic PlayStation 2 controller. So I'm not sure So I gotta say I do kind of like the It's both faster, but you have less control Oh, you can do double tapping on the laser blade. That's pretty cool. Okay, so if you do Assault boost to move rapidly in a direction. Oh, it's called. Oh, so it's not overboost in this game. It's called assault boost, right? All right. All right So here's what uh, we're gonna do we are going to Just see how far we can get until we die And then we'll start to mess around with the rod a little bit The next enemy I have a feeling that I'm gonna have to change my controls Honestly, the default controllers aren't that bad Oh my god, there's so sorry. I didn't even see the chat for a second. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. I gotta pause to read these chats Okay, okay. I gotta get used to multitasking while streaming here Dude Yeah, man like so much has changed but I honestly feel like See I I get why some people would say it doesn't really feel like An old style armored core anymore because in a way it kind of doesn't but it also It also doesn't it's not necessarily a bad thing like it will take a lot of getting used to for sure But uh, I think I think once you get used to it, you'll definitely like it better No, I mean it usually okay. So most armored core games have pretty crazy music. So I'm not really sure If it's just this mission, I think I think the mission I think the music is going to come over later But for now, yeah, don't worry. Don't worry. There should be some music coming in I would say like if there isn't I will actually be shocked. Am I getting shot at? Okay. Yeah, I'm probably Okay, so it looks like I'm out of ammo or something. Oh, wait. No, you just have to reload Oh, sure. I gotta scan this, dude This is one of my fallen comrades Sorry, bro I'm trying to keep the torch going I'm not gonna lie guys It is gonna take a lot It's probably gonna take a few days to get used to these controls Because I don't want to I don't want to go back to my old ways right because you know whenever you play a new A new game that's kind of a sequel You you kind of want to make everything the way it used to be so because you're familiar with it But I want to try and give the the new style of Um I want to try and give the new new controls a chance before I try and revert them to to be more Customized for myself. You know what I mean another fallen comrade. Dude. There's a lot of dead versions of us down here The tetra legs are your favorite so far What what makes them your favorite? I'm curious Because I you know more about this than me at this point. I've heard that the different Like the the different the different legs in our record. They used to be very very specific Quad legs used to be special because they could uh Because they could hold cannons, but I don't know if that's a thing in this game anymore They let you hover in the air to minimize recoil of big guns Okay Hover in the air. Okay, so I guess they made hovering on a a quad tetra leg exclusive thing Yeah, so that's the thing is like even though I've played almost all the armored cores before this They've changed a few things so where some of the knowledge I have might not really be valid anymore But I think from what I've played so far. I have at least figured out something that Um, for those of you that want to get good at this game Probably be important for you Huh the generator in this game is kind of a mix of awesome and terrible. Oh, my underwater guy Vertical catapult. Do I just first jump here or what? Oh, yeah, okay. That's pretty intuitive Dude, I just got dead homies everywhere. Oh, okay. Oh god damn it Of course, they throw in a boss at you. I don't even know how to control yet Prepare kits are kind of instant No, I'm gonna die. He's from the fucking side. I am maybe I should start using cover, right? He is he's got so much more health than I have this is bad. I'm not gonna die on the first boss. Oh, yeah I feel like such a scrub now in this game Because I can't even know I didn't quit moves Oh, thank you all great nike. I love your name by the way dexterous Restart for oh, we have checkpoints. Dude back in the day. We didn't get checkpoints in armored core That was a different we just had to start from the whole like the very beginning All right. Oh god Okay, okay, okay before we do that. I need to figure out how to just Quick boost from idle position. Is that a thing? I know you can You can do your assault boost and then you can You can turn sideways from there Oh, it was What the okay The triangle button was quick boost this whole time. Okay. Okay. That changes everything Now that I know how to quick boost that whole battle guys. I actually didn't know how to I thought you had to quick boost with the over boost combined. I wonder if you have to be Okay, fine. Here we go All right, let's try this again So far we haven't gotten Totally torched by all these misses yet Like armored core five where you you're expected to just kind of use quick boost as a way to To do it to dodge most things, you know, okay if I can beat this boss, I think we'll consider the stream of success Block I should go in Come on. Come on. Come on. Make it. I don't have that bit energy. Fuck that up. Okay to the scan mode I didn't even know I had I guess stagger bar, right? Yep. Yep. There we go So for those of you who guys who are like used to souls and stuff I I heard the stagger bar is a thing they got from dark souls And as an armored core player, I never really played dark souls. So this whole stagger thing is really new to me Misses are screwing me up. Shit guys I have failed you. I'm sorry. You guys came here to see a veteran pilot and uh, you're gonna see a scrub I think what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna practice my movement for like one more and if I can't do it Then I think I'm just gonna change the control And then if I still can't do it, then uh, we'll probably just uh, change the stream to just like, you know Interacting more with you guys and just you know answering any questions you guys have on just random stuff that you've always wanted to ask Because honestly like I could I could spend a lot of time trying this trying to tinker with stuff here because that's what Thank you. Thank you guys rip too. Let's try one more time. I just want to try one more thing Just want to practice my moves a couple more times here Change the build You know, you're probably right You're probably right, but I want to try one more time Okay, so if you do this you actually carry your momentum that actually might have been useful when I was fighting the other guy Um, let's see if you do this I wonder how you cancel that how you cancel it by jumping Okay, before we go into the next boss battle. Can you guys for those of you who are like dark souls? Experts, can you explain stagger to me real quick because that's not an armored core thing And I feel like it's a very important part of this game and I'm just like completely ignoring it. Okay, hold on Give me like two minutes and then I think I'll try and fight them again So that triangle button is quick boost. That's kind of cool You do carry a momentum and you can quick boost from the air Which is kind of cool Can you quick boost You can okay Wait, no, I gotta do something real quick. However, what if we do this? Okay, so the distance is the same The yellow bar fills up And you hit your boosters when the stagger runs the enemy gets stunned get enough damage stagger also Against you. Oh, so we both have stagger that makes sense I guess that explains like when you when the enemy hits you and you can't really move too much Okay, that makes sense. Okay See like I'm learning I'm learning stuff from you guys too because I Don't really have any dark souls experience. So All right. Well, that kind of explains something. I guess the last thing I want to know is okay Can I can do this into a laser blade? I can All right, we're gonna try one more time and if it doesn't work If it doesn't work Then I guess uh, we're gonna try and change our builds and see what's up. Okay. I believe he comes from Right All right, let's see. Oh, I see the yellow bar now. I see it. I see it Okay, so staggering is kind of like how we're gonna have to kill his health Come on stagger. Pack her up a little bit more, right? Then you will all be stunned. Hopefully supposedly He's going way out of bounds. I don't know if I can follow him there. Oh, he's fucking stunned Damn it. I messed up my stagger fucking go to stagger med No, wait. No I finally got the stagger and then I died because No way You fail this mission show me times too. Okay. Okay, dude. This is you get the license from wanted trailer pretty sure anyway, okay Melee is busted. Uh, okay. You know what though? Okay. Okay. I know this is an excuse but But I have a fairly decent excuse. All right. All right. I'll tell you my excuse in a second restart from checkpoint We start from mission You know what? I don't know. Can I are you not allowed to go to the assembly? You can't go into the assembly? No Okay, so you can only go to the assembly. I guess after you beat the mission Uh, but I don't want to do the mission over you guys do that. Okay. So here's the thing. Here's the thing Okay, guys I In an actual armored core the laser blade was it's always one of the most damaging weapons But at really really really high level play laser blade was almost like never a reliable weapon because you would never get close enough to use it so um What I would say is So like most of my designs They kind of didn't use laser blade And now it looks like the close range melee is designed to be used in conjunction with the stagger and Those are two features of armored core. I actually almost never ever use in years like I almost never go in close All right guys, so we have to use the ac for this mission. Oh my god. Okay. All right My goal is to beat this mission and then mess with the garage a little bit and then we'll probably uh Turn the stream back to like a It's like a conversation Okay, here we go. Here we go stagger thing is kind of up. I should probably get close so that when he does Actually stagger Okay, okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Come on. Come on. Come on I guess the blade tracking is different. Okay. Come on. All right. This is a good start, right? Okay, now that you guys have pointed out the stagger. It's like all I'm noticing That's going to be like the first big change. I'm gonna have to get used to in this game What the what? Oh That was a bad time to go out there Fuck You know what? I will be the most disgraced raven in the history of all pilots if I can't get this if I can't get this dude Oh, shit No, don't restart the mission Oh, wait, wait restart from checkpoint I've gone from desperate to kind of angry now I feel like I could have gotten a lot of extra damage if I had just gotten him in the stagger point Yeah, stagger and stab stagger and stab. Okay. So you guys are basically saying I got a I got a stagger and stab so See that's so that that's it's that's takes such a long time for me to get used to because I'm so not used to having to go Into blade and armored core because I'm I'm almost exclusively a gunner generally Let's go. Let's go. Let's go like the optimal range to fight this guy is actually kind of close Like you don't want to be too far away or else the missiles really kill you Okay, you should be almost staggered jump up there jump up there Uh, I can't fucking reach him. This is sad Okay, well, I'm gonna say So you want to use your boost to dodge, but you don't want to use your boost so much that you Can't reach them when they actually stagger That's gonna be rough. Come on stagger stagger stagger stagger stagger I feel like you should have staggered like seven years ago Okay Can I even reach him? Come on Is he out of bounds? Dude No Oh my god, if I lose because of that, I'll be so bad. All right, where is he? Where'd you go? Oh my god Come on. Oh my god. Sorry. I promise I'll read your super chats as soon as I As soon as I either die or or kill this guy God damn it I got robbed. He was out of fucking bounds. How did that happen? Oh come on don't I know No, no, no, no, no, no, no No, shit. Come on Oh, come on. Just die Come on. I know I'm one laser blade away from literally just no, that's not what I fucking did All right, I'm gonna read your super chats now guys because I I literally felt robbed He was staggered and he was fucking out of bounds. Oh, come on. All right Message retracted. Oh murder three thousand lobbed up. I'm already into a place. See if you're going to buzz You stand your missiles, dude. Are you playing with the roller? Uh Out of bound dude. Yes. Yes, dude. Okay Uh, I can't believe I can't believe he went out of bounds I had like the the the stat I I got him right where I wanted him and then I couldn't reach him. Oh my god. I'm uh I feel so robbed if that's like the last oh my god. All right, you know, all right I'll try two more time. I'm gonna try two more times I'm gonna try two more times and then and then and then uh, we're just gonna We're just gonna talk with you guys for a little bit because Oh my god, this is this would be I don't want it I don't want the whole stream. Just you guys be like seeing my ass get kicked here, but I feel robbed Melee generates the most stagger Ah, that's kind of interesting because then it's like, okay Do I use the melee to get the stagger or do I use the melee to capitalize off stagger, right? Okay, if I win this guys, I'm just letting you know it's just because you guys helped me out because uh Without you Dark Souls fans, you know in the back Telling me all the info about how this stuff works. I don't think I would have figured this out on my own at least not in the first like hour Okay, come on. Come on. Come on. He's died And I I do believe he shoots more the death like the lower on healthiest Okay, fuck You kind of have to dodge those missiles by Going forward I will say something that's kind of trippy that they do That they didn't really do in a lot of other armor core games is They kind of put you in a lot of you either get hit now or you get hit later Situations or if you dodge the big stuff, you're going to get hit with the small stuff All right. All right. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on Get up there. Get up there. I thought I could do it twice. Oh, does it? Oh, I didn't run Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. All right. All right. All right. We're good so far Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. We're getting there. We're getting there Come on. He'll steal. Come on Okay, come on. I don't want him to be out of bounds. That's why I'm that's why I'm That's why I'm trying to stay in the middle of the field because I don't want to get, you know, janked out of the the freaking Come on. Where is he? Where is he? Where is he? Jesus Christ. This is the first time I've actually been afraid of a helicopter For those of you who don't know, helicopters and armored corps have always been like a A funny enemy. They're always one of the worst enemies. They're almost never things you're afraid of so the fact that Every single new armored corps veteran probably had their ass handed to them by a helicopter is kind of hilarious All right. This is Are you shooting those? He's almost staggered. Just fucking die. All right. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on Please don't get staggered over there so I can Come on. Is he is he nuts? Oh my god Oh my god, come on. I'm gonna laser blade you anyway because you deserve it. Oh Yes, yes. Oh my god. All right. If there's another boss. I'm screwed. You can't see me. I'm like spinning in my chair right now This is ridiculous. Oh my god. All right. All right. All right Okay, now you can go to bed. Thank you. I'm so sorry. I kept you guys up I I didn't mean I just wanted to beat this guy before you guys But if you for those of you that want to stay an extra 10 minutes, I do have something cool to show you Um ravin. Oh no Raven I'm so down with that. I'm so down with that That is that that really makes you feel like an old pilot again Man. All right illegal entry cleared base pay. Well, we probably have a million repair costs Yep, we are we are not getting paid today. Um Bonus pay zero. Yeah Yeah, ravin is dead. Long live ravin. That's right. Robert. Here we go Paul's into pieces in second pause. Why did we get this one? Yeah, that's how they do it frontier of development for a time Coral was a revolutionary energy resource. I guess we'll listen to the story now That might help us survive to transform human society by leaps and bounds Yeah, you're right armchair general. You're right. I deserve that. I deserve that Always wanted to make streaming app in a real going from blender in real It's a steep learning curve and I can't program very well. Hey commander. That's okay. That's okay um, it's a steep learning curve no matter what you're learning and You're really the only way to do it is just to just go for it Humanity would inevitable like the more you try to do something Like, okay, here's my here's my tip for you if you're struggling to learn anew. Thank you normal cam. Thank you Thank you so much for the happy birthday witches. Um, but uh, oh shit. We look sexy Damn That is Registration number. This is the most beautiful garage. I've ever seen in my life Authentication complete rb-23 call sign, right? But anyway, uh commander my What I what I say if you're trying to learn a new software like uh, you're going from blender to unreal spend one weekend like a good saturday And in a sunday And then just watch every tutorial you can find on the thing that you're trying to figure out Like if you're trying to do particle effects, I would go I would save one weekend one saturday and sunday where all I do is just watch every particle effect tutorial I can possibly find and do it to the point where you get tired and bored and fed up with it because you're starting to See information you've already seen before when you get to the point where you're starting to get fed up with tutorials It usually means that you kind of get what's going on and you understand what you're supposed to do So that would be my sit my advice to you if you want to learn something quickly You stand to benefit regardless Hey, man, you're doing good. Just keep it up bro. Like seriously, just just keep it up. Keep it up All right, let's see axis granite. We can finally design our ac. Oh my god You know, this is actually also one of the first armored cores where you're You can't freaking to change your ac. Okay. No, that's that's like that's kind of a lie Usually you do have to do the first mission with an ac But usually the first mission isn't like a campaign usually the first mission is destroy one enemy So the fact that they made you do an entire thing is kind of crazy Tenderfoot. I guess he's an arena guy. We have a head We have a core We have milanders Okay, cool. We just got a whole set of parts then Okay, okay Do you get okay you guys I'm gonna I'm gonna leave it up to the chat. Okay. Do you guys I have I have a cool thing that I want to show you But now that we have access to our garage, I kind of want to look around What would you guys rather we do first? Do you want to see the cool thing I have that's gonna kind of tell you about like I guess Maybe give you some insight about armored core at least from what I know about it Or do you want to like you want you want us to go through the garage? More streams or we Okay, I gotta I gotta prevent you guys from having a mutiny against me So I guess we'll do some I'll try and do a stream like I don't know it's either gonna be twice a month Or maybe like once a week. We'll see Not a problem you're done has given me a lot of dopamine over the years You're welcome, bro Uh, there's a story behind that. Um, the the not a problem thing I'll I'll tell you guys, you know what screw it. I'll tell you guys now since this is the first stream The where did the not a problem thing came from? Um When I was learning game design for the first time I had a a mentor who knew Who who had made games before me? but they were always busy and when I Wanted to know something every time I asked them questions. They would kind of be like, oh my god I'm busy, right? And so I felt really bad every time every time I asked them questions and So I would try and do as much research as I could on my own Before I could before I bothered them with questions And every time I got stumped I would always come to them and be like, man, there's this big problem I have I don't know how to do this I've been trying to figure it out for four days and my mentor would always say it's not a problem And then they would click three buttons and it would be solved And it was through that I learned that almost everything that stumps most people Especially when it comes to software is like four clicks away from being solved And so I guess like for my channel that kind of subconsciously just came out because Um, you know every time there was a question I would I would be like, oh, yeah, this is really simple And then you know I would start it out with not a problem because that is what my mentor used to say to me Whenever I would come to them with With with you know a problem, right? I'd be like, oh, how do you do animation? And then they would be like, that's not a problem. You just key frame and move things here And uh, yeah, so that that is where the whole not a problem thing came from so Yeah, it was it was from another game designer who I unfortunately bothered Probably more than I should have Apple shape keys or penguin avatar Yeah, just a blender because some rando five button hockey combo. Oh, dude the hot keys in blender are brutal, man But uh, yeah, no, no, so that that's where the whole not a problem thing was and originally I didn't actually expect to be the channel's catchphrase the only reason the only reason I uh The only reason I got to the point where I include it every video is because I kind of said it for the first like 17 videos and then one video I just kind of didn't say it. I just kind it was just like, oh, here's the answer You press here and then There was like a mutiny in the comments where people were just like, where's the not a problem? You didn't say it. You didn't say it. You have to say not a problem and then I was like, okay. Okay. Okay. All right I'll say it and ever since then I kind of just started out every video with not a problem because otherwise people crucify me for not seeing it so So there's the story for the channel for those of you guys who are still here, so So Some of you guys probably remember that right so Okay, okay, so we're gonna we're gonna go to the garage for a second just a second I just want to see what's over here because we had our ass handed And uh, I'm thinking maybe we can do something about that now I am going to go ahead and tell you guys straight up just from the first level The strategies are going to be completely different in this game. So a lot of things that are Yeah, yeah, it is branding. It is branding. You say no catchphrase No, no, no, you guys are right. It it it turned out to be pretty good branding I and you know, I I should probably get some shirts with it But you know, I haven't had the time to do stuff like that yet But that is that essentially is how it became part of the channel um But so real quick just just just to get for for a three minute Uh tangent on armored core on what my opinion is from the first mission Uh In this game you have a lot less control over your ac Which means it's going to be more about strategy than it is piloting and reaction so um What I mean by that is like You know what? I'll just go ahead and show you guys. I'll just go ahead and show you guys. So Let's see If we can just uh show you here I'm going to bring in the uh the old old school I really want to show you guys what I mean here because it's kind of a big deal um So so what do I mean just from the difference between Old armored core and modern and armored core six, right? Now i'm not saying that the armored core six is worse because I think it's actually better I think I just suck right now but um But I'm going to tell you what I think the main differences between this game is and and the the old ones So this is armored core last rave and this was the last armored core that was on the PlayStation 2 and um Not a thank you robert. Thank you. Thank you. Yeah. Now if we gotta get a shirt some I got to get some shirts and merchandise. I just haven't had a chance to do it yet because I've been so busy Okay, so let's just go in here real quick and and pick like a a random ac Okay, so What I mean by you don't have as much control was So what you're seeing right now, this is like gen one gen two. This is gen two armored core main system and And what I mean by that is in in this armored core you You were never stuck like you know how whenever you quick boost in armored core six You kind of go a direction and you kind of stuck going in that direction, right? But in the old armored core you could change direction All the time So you could go left and right you could you could there's you were never stuck and you could you could you could boost a lot more and The reason why this was important and and and and here's here's why it was a big deal is because If you plot because you had so much freedom You if you if you were good at the game you could almost never get hit and and I'll kind of show you what I mean by that Um, so if we like just have a random enemy here like Let's see Yeah, PlayStation 2 loading days So like what I want you guys to watch how I avoid projectiles in in this game here All right, so he's going to try and shoot at me and I'm going to try and avoid all right So you kind of see how like He'll shoot at me, but he's not really hitting me right And that's because you can throw off the lock on And I can change direction right I can go left and then fake You kind of see how how So this is how dodging used to be in armored core That's what it used to be so I'm not used to having To dedicate to a direction Right, like I'm not used to having a quick boost button and then once I press the quick boost button Like I'm stuck going that direction because in the old armored core There was no such thing as being stuck. You could always change your direction at any point in time and that's uh So that's what I was used to right but in uh In armored core six You kind of don't have that sort of mobility anymore, right? and um And that's kind of also something else that I've kind of noticed here now I think that's probably just something I got to get used to but it is one of the big bigger differences that I think Uh, only probably like the older guys would probably notice but it's there reverse joint legs. Let you move like that really? That might be the first thing we need to find Uh, but I will say the first thing I want to see if I can change is The generator because generators usually are what give you the ability to boost and move So let's see. Do we have any money? I don't where's that? Where where is the money? Where's the shop? Do we have a shop? Where is the shop just built into our garage? The shop unlocks later. Oh shops not unlocked it. Okay, so I guess this is just what we're stuck with, huh? That's fine. Still it's pretty cool though I guess the last thing I'll the one thing I'll do before I go in here is we'll go into the paint shop and see what we can do Because this is always fun. I'll just do an entire frame Uh, hey, that's actually pretty cool Corporate black yeah classic Second mission you get the shop. Ah Okay, okay, okay Appreciate the mocap tutorials. Yeah, no, you're welcome, man Those were a pain to make because the suit's actually very uncomfortable to put on in the beginning But once you get it on it saves you a lot of time When you get to the training missions, they'll give you free stuff. Oh hell. Yeah. All right. Let's see what we got here Oh, all right. Here's something that not a lot of people probably know in the past Uh, the the default color schemes that you would get in the game would have names So for example, uh, let's see This looks like the gold default color that they're gonna give you in the old game. It was called glorious gold I'm not even joking. It was called. This was glorious gold Uh wood green There was uh Or was it Blood red. No, no, no, that's not blood red. This is blood red And then there was caution or no no no caution orange. No, they don't have an orange Snow white And what was it called? I think it was night black You're welcome wheeze I try my I try to make my tutorials as as as short as possible for you guys. So, you know, because Yeah, and it kind of works against me like because I make the tutorials short Uh, you know, usually you guys get your information and you go outside of youtube back into your software and you kick ass Because you leave youtube youtube kind of thinks that's a bad thing So it assumes that my my channel is actually not very good Because anyone who comes to my channel leaves youtube If I do my job correctly, right? So so it's like the better I actually do my job The the more youtube punishes my channel. So it kind of sucks, but You know, that's life. Whatever. We work with what we got Uh, you guys are here and and as long as you guys are here, I mean, I think it's worth it Hmm, I'm not gonna lie. This red scheme is pretty cool Okay, but you know what? I don't want to have all right. I'm just gonna pick this for now because I don't want to have a Cool color scheme that represents me but suck Right. I don't want to have a basic A basic color that's like me first. Oh, this is so sick You know, it's funny a lot of people that are like reviewing armor core that I've never played it before are really impressed with the paint shop Um, they're like, oh, this is the most control or customization armor core or like any games ever had. This is like a standard Paint shop thing and armor core has always had this level of customization for paint shop The only difference is they have you they let you do like wear and tear and then they let you do decals But other than that a lot of this is very, you know, tried and true classic armor core stuff Um Material oh, okay. Yeah, so this is new You get to choose different materials. Oh god. This is so all right. All right. I'm all right. I take back what I said This this this is new. Okay. We've never had the ability to change the material of our ac's You will keep the tampage open from now on No You got out. No. Hey listen, you don't have to inconvenience yourself to help the channel. I don't want to do that to you guys Um, you know if you guys just if you guys get the information you leave a like If you want to be extra cool, like just don't skip the ad in the beginning And maybe leave a comment, you know, but just just those little things are are more than enough Okay, I could oh my god. I could literally be stuck in here all day But i'm not going to because I don't want to bore you guys to death with custom colors But I do want to see Let's go through like a silver. Yeah, that's always nice Oh Okay Okay, Jesus christ Paint shop has come a long way All right. Well, I guess we're gonna go with this for now. It's not the sexiest color in the world, but Let's make our eyes Oh, we can make it brighter. We get some some emission going on in there Sure, we'll go with the genoby colors Uh, let's see. I'm gonna read you guys's chats now just so I trying to keep up with them Can't wait to download to compete my plan and my steam dick. Oh, yeah, dude No, it's gonna be fun. It's gonna kick your ass, but it's gonna be fun YouTube algorithm is really hard to get his attention took more than a year to try and set up. Yeah, so the youtube algorithm is It's very tricky and there's a lot of things that I'll be telling you guys that I found out about it in the next couple videos, but um something That I would recommend is just You got to think about the youtube algorithm like You get remember every view is a person, right? It's like the algorithm is just a human, right? So so if you're good with giving people with what they want then you're you're gonna be more favorable for the algorithm so I would say try and think about it like that if you if you promise your community I'm gonna do this and you do it Um, then you're probably gonna be okay. Oh my god. There's so much stuff here Okay, okay, okay, okay So, all right. I probably shouldn't but I just want to see what the next mission is Replay mission. Oh There's a training. I will do that on my own time not when you guys are on stream But let's see Oh, I can choose Do we want to go to the artillery station or grid cleanup? I'll let you guys decide which one grid cleanup or artillery installations artillery All right, let's go to artillery God, I love this ui. Whoever did the ui for armor core really needs to raise This is one of those we don't need the city, but we want to send a message mission We're good, dude. The first boss is not that is no joke. I'm sure once we upgrade our ac though We'll probably be able to take it out in like a couple hits, you know All right assembly. Let's just go let's go If I if I if I get stuck out of boss guys, I apologize, but I'm gonna I'm gonna try not to America Yeah, he definitely comes from america whoever's uh hiring our mission Or whatever whatever america is on rubicon Rubarica Dude, look at these texture maps Look at these Look at those fluid simulations. I gotta see those close up. Hold on. Hold on Fuck went too far dude Look at all this oil just be being poured can it can I interact with it or is it like I expected too much, but It's okay. That would have been it wouldn't enhance the gameplay. I I don't I don't blame them for not wanting to do that I'm finally getting used to some of the controls He just shot me with a big freaking gun. Okay. Oh, I have a laser doing I forgot Eight a second Wait a second. Wait a second. I just noticed something Stop shooting me. I need I need to test something Okay. Okay. Okay. I think I So wait if you laser blade you can do that twice And then you have to wait what five seconds for it to come back Okay, something like five seconds, right? However If you just do it once You can't do it again So it's like you might as well always do it twice because you don't get to save half of it right Like it It's gonna take the same amount of time to come back whether you do one or two So you might as well just do twice, right? You cannot wait to upgrade my generator I'm tired of having no energy. I wonder how you kick people. I know you can Yeah, you really can't you might as well just always laser blade twice Who's shooting at me? Oh, okay. Oh, it's a chip upgrade. Oh, okay I think I noticed something else Can I what wait a second? Okay, I think I understand why I had so much trouble managing my energy It's all coming together guys. It's like a revelation. Okay, so so here's here's what I'm noticing Okay, you could use all your energy, right? And I thought the energy was tied to your boosters because that's usually what it's tied to like them If you boost your energy goes down, right? So you would have to stop boosting for your energy to go up but if if you are If you're sliding on the ground, right like if you're sliding on the ground like watches I'm sliding right but my boosters are still on And my energy goes up. Did you see that? Like So it's not connected to the boosters. It's only connected to whether you're in the air If you're in the air, I guess or if you're if you're not using it in the air So your your energy goes Okay, yeah So it's just if you're in the air or not If you're in the air, then your your energy doesn't go up But if you're touching the ground, even if you're technically boosting Your energy is going to go up Yeah, okay, so Okay Well that explains the hell of a lot right now because I was like trying to figure out what I don't understand what the rules are for the energy So I got to stay on the ground if I want my energy to come back. That's interesting. Okay, okay That's sniper rifle. Oh my god, dude You just fucking shot me dude I guess sniper rifles in this game are pretty decent Because in other games they're okay Okay, so we just got to take care of these guns and they'll be good Come on. I'm getting used to the controls guys. It's taking a oh fuck as soon as I say that I'm about to die Who is shooting me? This guy Oh, there's a dude. Come on man Oh, I guess I'm okay. Oh, he's still alive. Can I laser blade through the wall? Can I is he still there? I think he's still there. Okay. I see his gun poking through can I do this? Can we hit each other or is he alive? He's alive. Oh, come on. I hate those rockets. I can't believe They're the same exact rockets as the stupid helicopter Every time you go for one guy you have to go through like other guys I'm still not entirely sure what I'm going to be doing for streams, honestly Because here's the thing This stream is kind of special just because you know, it's my birthday and I love armored core, right? But I am very aware that most of the people in our community are not here for armored core You know, and I don't want the streams to be like Totally unrelated to To whatever we're doing. Oh, did I win? Like if I do do an ac stream, it'll probably be like background Stuff while I talk to you guys not necessarily like right now. I'm trying to figure the game out, right? But um in the future if I do play armored core, it'll probably just be background noise while you guys ask me questions and stuff, you know You can't curse within first two minutes of oh, shit Oops, I just said it again. My bad guys as you can tell I'm not really use this I am honestly surprised. They did not throw a boss at us. Usually they do Okay, you guys said that we unlocked the shop after two missions, right? Thank you guys. Thank you for the birthday wishes. Super appreciated But you guys see what I mean about um Making the stream kind of not completely random for most of the community, right? Like I love this game I love streaming it By the same time, I understand that most of the people aren't really here for armored core and that's fine Like this the channel was never about armored core. It's just kind of always been a secret hobby of mine, but Thanks commander for worldwide for the information. I appreciate it Every 15th minute make a comment about the architecture in the game and now it's hard surface If I do it as like a 3d tutorial, yeah, sure. I'll I'll go through stuff in the game um Let's see You know what though. All right. All right. I wonder how do you save in this game because I know All right. Now, you know, we're gonna we're gonna buy so we're gonna go shopping And then I'll and then I'll turn off armored core and then I'll show you something cool. How's that? How's that you guys down for that? I don't want to keep you guys up too late. So Um, but but uh, we're gonna we're gonna do we're gonna do some online We're gonna do some armored core shopping and then um, and then I'll show you something cool And then we'll probably call the stream in there But Okay, I hate my generator So I'm gonna sell it because it's bullshit Where is it? Uh left arm back arm head core core Boosters generator, how do we sell this? Default, can we not sell our defaults? No Can you not sell the default parts? Oh, you could tell when you played the you actually played the steam game with uh, yeah, no the armored core has been uh part of my life ever since you know, I was uh in school really Analyzing parts of acc to try to forget it dude We're gonna have something like that in the discord Well, we'll have like weekly challenges for the people to just you know, have fun and do Uh, I'll talk more about that later on right now the discord is still kind of being built and I'll I'll announce it when it's done But we'll definitely have things where um, you know, we'll have like 3d challenges or or just art challenges Um, and we'll just you know try and improve our skills as as artists, you know I'm going forward. I can't believe they don't let you Sell your default parts, you know, okay, because in the first armored core you could sell anything Gomia there is a discord Yeah, but I haven't announced it yet because i'm still like fixing it up There's a lot of people who snuck in though on accident And they snuck in and I didn't know I was built I've been building the discord just kind of just quietly And then um So were of systems which is this guy who's been one of the one of the patrons who's been helping me set it up He was just saying like hey, yeah, we're gonna need to make a channel in a category here probably and um, you know, there's There's a bunch of things that you're gonna probably need and then I'm like fixing typos Quietly on the discord right and then out of nowhere. He's like, you know, there's 60 people here and I'm like, what? Wait, what I've been I've been literally fixing typos and 66 people have been watching me this whole time Like holy good was like what the hell man like I so anyway Some people have snuck in early, but it's technically not announced yet. So the discord's gonna come up soon Um, but we're not really at the point where I would say it's ready yet or it's close though Purchase ac parts to sold I'm I'm still mad you can't sell your default parts because I used to sell like my guns just to get a booster in the old game Oh, yeah, some people got auto joined, but Okay, how much money do we have? we have Okay, we have enough to buy Okay, we could buy two guns or we can buy Well, how much is a generator? I'm expecting it to be pretty expensive Uh I'm surprised only one really that's all I get. I'll buy it Okay, now can I sell my old generator because because that shit was terrible You can't you really can't sell it. Okay. Well, I guess we should buy a gun Try unequip the first and then sell. Uh, we'll try it We'll try it. We'll try it. Uh, let me let me see. Maybe if I equip I'll be able to sell it. You're right I hope that's the case because if not this kind of sucks Holy shit. Okay Okay, so for those of you who don't know when general at least from the old armored cores The most important stats in my opinion and this is Probably my hot take that most that a lot of other veterans don't necessarily agree in But in my opinion the most important stat when it comes to generator is energy capacity and Energy capacity and recharge generally or I guess it's energy output in this game the more energy output you have the The faster your energy goes up and the more you can The more you can boost but in this game your energy doesn't go up unless your feet are on the ground So that might actually not be true anymore Either way, it looks like this generator is just a lot better. So let's see if we can sell the old one now Hey, wait No, you can't okay. So you you cannot sell default parts and I guess that's kind of like a fail safe So I guess we'll just use whatever money we have to buy a new weapon. What do you guys want to buy? Do training missions. It gives you a really good submachine gun Do the training mission. Oh, did you just say a submachine gun on a training mission? All right, sorry guys I was gonna just shop but but I have to do this training mission now. Where's the training mission ac design heart shop Assembly Where is the training mission? Oh, here we go. Okay. Wait, is it the training mission or is it the ac test? It's in this. Okay. Okay. Okay. I just want to get this submachine gun and get a bazooka I'll get a bazooka arm. I'm sure general just because you said so I'm gonna get a bazooka if I can afford it though Two land shots on moving targets. You must pull the trigger when they are in lock range Where target tracking is active Yeah, I did say equipped parts can't be sold Oh, wait a second. This is really important This might be the most important part of the game to land shots on moving targets You must pull the trigger when they are within lock range Wind target tracking is active That doesn't make sense though Okay So I guess Wait a second So if they're in range, you'll still aim at it. Okay I guess lock range is considered something else. So there's yellow range, which I'm not really sure what that is And then there's red range which I've never heard of the team sortie sounds kind of weird to me Oh, this this shit's awesome Nope to you if Machine guns have always been one of my favorite weapons and arm record not because they're really good, but they just look cool Okay. Okay. All right. All right. So this is what I wanted to test so Okay, so it looks like when the target is yellow Even though you are technically aiming at them. You are not actually going to hit them I'm assuming when the target is red. Yeah, that's when the future Gaming comes out So wait So it does it seems to happen pretty fast. Oh, okay But if you're out of range, you don't get that futuristic aiming That's probably the most important thing that you're going to need to know in this game if you want to get good at it Ace combat moment red just means the fully locked and it's accurate accuracy rate is decreased. I didn't know that Okay So it basically only fire when it's red Otherwise, you're just gonna miss Or I guess when it's red and both reticles lined up Let's let's let's see if he changes direction Weapons with magazines will automatically reload with depleted matter to manually reload Hold y r t God damn it. See i'm not using a playstation controller or an xox controller So I don't know where y is on this custom controller Or whatever. It's okay Reload, okay Why Okay, so why for me is literally that button. All right, gotcha Wow This has been really really interesting to use missiles and other homing keep the enemy on screen until the lock is complete Then fire some missile weapons can multi lock. Okay, that's kind of close to the way it used to be So Oh, wait, wait, is that how it does it? So the little number it just tells you This is kind of cool. Actually, I love this training area For those of you who didn't notice The The floor is actually crazy detailed Like look at the freaking roughness maps on these on these floor tiles and it's actually moving Like the like I said all these details are things that the developers do That they know full well the player's not gonna find They just do it because they want to That's dedication Require a risky close range. Yeah, I don't know how I feel about laser blades yet I feel like the fact that you either burn too or you or you just you don't get rewarded for managing your resources on that It's kind of a downer Maybe they'll patch that I don't know Nathan Barrett, holy shit, bro. I Man, bro. I haven't seen you in such a long time. Thank you so much I wow, man. It's it's good to see you man I was I was wondering how you were doing. Anyway, thank you so much for dropping by Means a lot to me to see old, you know old squad mates here Seriously, thank you so much. I know you're still around but man, I didn't expect to see you here in the live stream. Thank you You can detect enemies the containers. Oh, there was a scan thing. I accident. Oh shit I think I just made it loud Maybe what maybe I can make it less loud What's the issue with blades and energy management? Okay, so watch this The light light. Okay. Okay. See in energy management. Let me let me kill these dudes first. Okay, and then I'll show you what I mean Okay, okay. So here's here's what I mean, right? You're you're you're not rewarded for managing your your resources here. So watch this like if I if I laser blade once I can't do it again for like what three four seconds, right? But if I do it twice Wait, I don't think this laser blades the same as the one I have wait Okay, right. All right. So if you do it twice, you can't do it for what four seconds But if you do it once It's the same cooldown Like there's no difference between laser bleeding twice and laser bleeding once you're gonna have the same cooldown Anyway, so you might as well always laser blade twice. That's what I mean. Like you're not really rewarded for it Which kind of sucks Whoa Blades use energy to swing. Hey, we got the shingun. Thank you for that tip Hold on. I'm gonna read your chat real quick. If you miss on the first slice though, you're committed to moving a second slice So no benefit that should honestly put an account to reserve the other Gotcha. Thanks for explaining the blades have different cooldowns. Yeah, but like it doesn't seem like there's a difference in the cooldowns Whether you use one slash or multiple slashes. I mean, I guess Yeah, you're right You're stuck for a longer period of time because you got to go through the second laser blade animation So in a way, I guess there is a drawback But I would have liked to see that reflected in the In the generator of your the energy you have, right? Like if you if you laser blade once it should it should recover in two seconds instead of four, right? Does that make sense? All right, at least like that. I think that makes sense to me, but um Now that we have a machine gun Oh And see now now can we sell our gun that we don't like? Oh, we could sell the machine gun But I kind of like that machine gun I wish I could sell the rifle. The rifle is freaking awful. Well, let's see what else we can get though Oh, you guys said you wanted the bazooka. Is that I think I remember reading that I'm sorry mongobongo. There's a story behind the new york accent and I'll tell you later on but it was uh Yeah, yeah now. This is my real. This is my real voice The unique charge attacks get really cool. Yeah, okay, let's see caliber handgun burst rifle Burst rifles traditionally have been pretty good in the game, but we'll see all right Let's go with our left. See and I usually used to rock two weapons I I almost never used a laser blade in the original. Um, at least in a incompetent play So this is a little more familiar to me right here Rifles rifles machine guns. Oh, you can have two that's kind of cool. Uh, and bazooka I guess We could afford a bazooka We could have a laser blade and a bazooka Hmm, or what let's see what backiness we could have Compact two-cell missile launcher developed for a long. Oh, we got more stuff here Standard pulse shield developed by a taekwondo a pulse shield. Oh, this is a shield That actually could probably come in pretty useful Um for missile launcher dual missile launcher The dual missile launcher and armor core has traditionally been an extremely good weapon set, but it's Hella expensive which makes sense because I I assume it's pretty good but um it It does make us one point slower. I guess so Ah, man. All right. You know what? I said I would buy the bazooka. So I'll buy the bazooka, but Let's let's let's go ahead and go for a bazooka Let's buy the bazooka on our left hand though Because I really want to use that um machine gun on my right Hell yeah, and there we go all right Wait, can we afford anything on our back? Because if we can afford even this even the cheapest missile launcher That would be good All zooka I never liked the bazookas, but a wonderful thing. Okay. Do you have the toggle swing? I really feel like you're playing armored core. I I know right man Okay, let's see. We have 50 000 bucks. Is there anything we can put on our back like anything Oh where there is there is what is this? Uh Okay, we can have a shield. You know what let's take the shield I will take the shield because it's better than nothing right now and it it'll only make us what one unit slower Where is it right here? Here we go Hell yeah You know, it's crazy though Something that's really crazy I would say the biggest change in armored core ever is the fact that the weapons don't really weigh that much Like in in the old armored cores if you went from equipping nothing To a missile launcher Your your boost speed which is at the bottom right here. You can see it's 302 Your boost speed would go down from from 302 to something like 240 And here You equip a full you go from nothing to a full. What is this pulse shield? You literally just get one mile per hour slower That's insane. There's like the punishment for not for for equipping weapons Is is really not there at least from what I could see because in the old armored core You would purposely not equip weapons because they would slow you down But it's like if the difference between this is going 303 kilometers an hour or 302 kilometers an hour like there's that's no difference. I don't I don't see it So I guess wait what what's the difference between if I if I unequipped the laser blade That's barely if we go from a bazooka to a laser blade. We're only going to what three kilometers faster That's ridiculous. There's like no point to have what's the point in it because in the old game You used to have the laser blade because it was light But it was you know, it wasn't very useful But it was light if you got close, but it's like The difference in weight here is not that big of a deal right now. I don't know I'm surprised, but let's just let's just go with this and see how it goes Oh really it has its own energy sweet that shield is going to be really really useful All right, man, I could play I could play for another hour, but I don't want to bore you guys with Having my ass handed to me Because I know that's going to happen because that's what from software does Uh, let's see. Let's see. Let's see Armored core design production a digital steroids. I don't know. I really want to test that machine gun though I really want to test that machine gun. I guess we have to go to bellies By the way, you can touch punch if you're empty-handed. Oh, you can you can just straight up Like sock people in the face if you don't have anything Dude, all right. I want to do let's do Let's go ahead and do Okay, we're gonna do one more mission. Okay one more mission and then I'll show you the cool thing And then and then I'll just take some last minute questions and then we'll call it a night Six to one Hey, hey, it's good to have you guys right here Schneider Schneider lens. Do you guys know what that commercial is from? If you do if you do draw like let me know in the chat Just in more minutes mom. Yeah, no for real that that's how it is right now Chainsaw oriented weaponry would be awesome. Yeah, robert. I agree. That would be hella awesome if we could do that Oh my god, look at my machine. So sexy I I'm not gonna lie though. This head's not really doing it for me. That would be that's kind of a deal breaker It's okay. It's okay She'll get prettier. She'll get prettier Love the backstopping that's going Yeah, I know right that's how it's always been with overcore You like work for one guy and then the next mission is literally working for the other guy to undo the mission you did This head's not really doing it It's it's true though. It's not There's better. There has to be better-looking heads here. All right now that I have a machine gun. Oh my god This is oh, okay. All right. I forgot Wait, how do you do the whole how do you just run? How do you boost run? Oh, you have oh That answers so many questions Hey, yo, eskimo one Eskami one. Hey, thank you for the birthday wishes. I appreciate it I was I thought you could I thought you would boost by just holding forward and I never boosted and I just got hit like an idiot You have and then I would try and use the boost button to boost forward because that's how it used to be In the old game, right? But you can only boost forward on the ground if you do a quick boost first and now you can boost forward See that's that's that's that's that's different Uh, where's my open door button? Here we go Jiggle physics and armored core. I should probably add them shouldn't I I'm not the game for you guys later I'm just kidding. I don't know how to mod anything here right now I'm trying to figure out how things work with the radio with the generator Because it looks like it does recover when I'm in the air now, which is awesome Hell yeah, this is what I needed Okay Yeah generator in the early stages is definitely the right choice Did you just Oh wait, I have a shield, right? Oh shit Whoa, can I really just drop the shield out whenever I want? That's crazy Oh, wow the shield overheats really long though Dude, this machine gun is really awesome. All right. Come on. Come on Oh, I'm at least I have a decent generator so I don't fall to my death every five seconds now I'm not gonna lie this shield I'm digging it. Oh god, you know, it's funny. I forgot But we did we went this mission to test the bazooka and I forgot we had it Schneider Yes, we actually should really get it Uh, let's see No, no, do you guys remember the the old commercial? With all with the oh, fuck it. I died. Oh shit. Oh shit Who the hell shot me? Dammit. All right. I see you guys. Let's try the bazooka out Dude, I love the fact that it has its own animation Dude that stance that animation is everything Yeah, no, do you guys remember the commercial was this like look at that horse schneider lens High resolution Is that just me or am I too old? You sit on the shield guys. Oh, you're right. You're right. You're right. I just thought I had a laser blade for a second Do I just stay boosting if I'm Oh, okay I wonder what legs have the fastest just like boosts Like just on the ground right like with no energy My hud died. What happened? Damn. All right. So the bazooka Was amazing Was fucking amazing Holy shit, dude. It's like a laser blade, but far I bet you if I had the bazooka fighting the helicopter, it wouldn't have mattered if he was out of bounds Point blank them with the bazooka. That's not what the bazooka's for but you know what I'll do it just for you Okay Reverse joint legs have the fastest boost speed He's been converted. It's today your birthday. It is my birthday. Thank you Attach the zookas to all the limbs. Oh, you want to go full bazooka? Dude. All right. I don't even know if I can afford it, bro Axe is granted. Wait, we got what? Uh, okay. Oh, hold on since we finished a mission. Let's see what we can have The shield is pretty cool It does overheat, but I'll hmm. I'm gonna go for offense here. We're gonna All right, let's see what we can do. Oh man. We're poor We can afford anything Except another machine actually wait should we You want you guys want to go double bazooka? Because we could sell our shield to get a bazooka probably Anime face topology tutorial rukikuri already did one for you guys Oh wait Well, kind of There there are some pretty good anime tutorials out there for topology if you want them Um, I'll tell you guys. I'll probably just share it in the discord. All right, so we're gonna do some um Some good old Shop balancing here We cannot sell stuff that we're equipped with so we got to unequipped our shield And uh I wish we could sell our rifle, but they don't let you sell the defaults But maybe if we if we sell the shield We'll be able to afford another bazooka because if we couldn't do that that'd be cool Ah, man, I do like the machine gun. How much how much ammo does the bazooka have? Let's see Uh, where's the uh, here we go Um, we have uh attack power Total rounds 78 round dude more than enough dude more than enough. There's not going to be 78 enemies in a level or or will there Sell your bazooka to buy the bazooka. No man. It's not how it works, bro You don't do that. That's against the law Okay, but I got it. I got to see something though I have 32 000 credits. Can I afford any this like I said this head is just not I would okay, but these heads don't look that oh this one. Oh, this is like a pacific rim Jager head Dude, that's the one. She's the one. I found the one guys. She's right here. Her name is the the notch trier The wait the noctraeer noctraeer. Dude, that's a sexy name Hell yeah Dude, I want this head. Oh man. We can't afford it Uh, let's see. What are these cores? Wait, do these have weapons in them because they didn't they didn't the old ones Nope, they don't look like it Probably want lighter arms later on. I can't really afford them right now Oh, here's what the legs are. Oh, those are cool Well, we'll change that later for for now. We're gonna equip our second bazooka that we spent so much money So All right, just for you. I I just for you guys not night uh night rare. I don't know I don't know what what language you think that's from because it sounds pretty badass. It's definitely not english You dog you like to bazooka dude. We're going all bazooka. That's what that's what we live for here on royal skies This is what we're going. Oh, I got a head. I forgot Uh, but it's not that much better looking Uh, okay. What are the parts? It's better in every way. Never mind. We're gonna buy that one. Oh, we have two cores. No We've had these parts and I just wow. What's the these things are okay. Okay What's an expansion? Okay Is it german? Not knocked noctrior Night heron Oh, that is awesome That is a pretty badass name I'm gonna tell you guys a secret. I think german sounds cool and I don't I I understand there's like a lot of basic words in german that are just like You know like pot and and whatever but It's just like really random german words just sound cool to me And I and I know it's like probably sounds dumb to a german, but I mean, I don't know the language just sounds badass It's kind of like russian too Like I just think that certain languages just sound amazing And then there's english, you know, which is like It's like your default language Uh, it could be dutch too birthday same day. So you're like, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No, it was it was a crazy coincidence, but All right. Well, we have um changed our ac We gotta we got these two bazookas we might as well try them out, right? Last one and then I'll show you the cool thing and then uh, and then we'll probably call it in. Let's see Destroy the heli- oh no, fuck the helicopters Destroy the tester ac Let's see What should we do? What do you guys want to do? I I personally have a phobia to helicopters right now But but I'll do it if you guys want to try with the bazookas All right, axi you have a wonderful breakfast. Thank you so much for being here. I really really appreciate it, man Seriously, thank you so much. You have a good one. All right. Take it easy. You have a fantastic day Make the helicopters pay Oh my god, you guys what oh my god. All right. All right. We're gonna we're gonna make the helicopters pay Or we're gonna have our asses handed to us again. We'll see Zookas versus heli would be rough. Uh, that's what I think too, but maybe I'm wrong You get extra money if you explode more stuff Damn, I picked the wrong thing to explode random stuff You we probably should have had the laser blade if we just wanted to hit more stuff You guess it's time to get over your fear of helicopters I guess so we're about to have no no no choice here I'll do my best. I'll do my best. Here we go. Well, we're gonna make them pay for what they did to us in the first mission You know this this bollum briefing guy is kind of rubbing off on me. I just like his energy He is like so positive about his job and hiring you to do shit He's just like I guess you're hanging in there, aren't you? Let's go ahead and get you set up And I was like dude, that's the that's the attitude you want your boss to have whenever you're doing your job Oh, I love this core this this torso area like that It's it's very similar to the original armored core torso the core I love the design on this is one of those designs that never gets old Oh my god, I never realized how circular the garage was. That's kind of weird most of the time. It's not Okay Now that I oh, hold on. I got a basket and all the money we spent for a second Look at that. Look at all this glorious financial dominance we have Put into our ac. All right. Let's see what we can do with it. Where are those helicopters? Oh It definitely takes a little while to uh Oh, they're the helicopters aren't even in the air. Oh, this is easy We're gonna die dude bazookas Bazookas are the way to go. I'm telling you Where am I going? Dude, dude, dude, these bazookas are this is this is what I wanted. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. I think we found our weapons of choice Okay, I will say the one thing about bazookas is you are you are locked into an animation But other than that, it's I mean you're not locked into it any more though than if you were to laser blade though You know, so it's it's kind of like worth it in my opinion. Uh, you stupid helicopter you're on the ground now You're lucky. I don't have a laser blade with me. But I mean, are you really the bazooka is not much better Dude, I love the stance when the bazooka fires, man Fan tap. Do you want me to do the fan tap? I'll do it before the end. Don't worry. Don't worry. All right. Hold on. Hold on Where's the bad guys? Here we go Dude, this generator kicks ass I'm telling you I'm telling you as an ac vet you want a good generator Having a good generator is like having a good metabolism There's no downside. Oh wait, I thought that was a target. I'm retarded. Hold on. All right. Here we go Come on I missed my shot. Dude. Come on, man. Oh god Dude bazookas are kind of like a one-shotter, which I love Because you don't have to worry about stagger. You literally just decide. Okay, you're gone Oh shit Oh shit You're not a helicopter Oh, fuck. I forgot. I forgot stagger. This is dark souls now I thought he was dead Okay, okay. Come on. Don't die. Don't die. Don't die. Oh shit Oh my god. I think we're I think we're gonna die. I think we're gonna die We're gonna die We're we're not gonna die. We are living We living guys. We living. All right. We we survived Oh my god No way, are we that's the end of the mission, right? I'm out of repair kits. This is bad you're Dude Hey, the mb. Thank you guys. Thank you for so much for dropping by. Hey, you have a one you have a fantastic day Okay, thank you so much for dropping by. I really appreciate it. This is probably gonna be my last mission too because One way or another. I'm either going to die or we'll do this tomorrow. God damn it My god, I hope I don't die. I hope there's not another ac or like right here You guys think I can shoot it without locking on I do Here we go Oh my god, did we win? Did we win? Well, no tomorrow. I mean like I'm gonna stream tomorrow But like I'll probably like mess around with the game a little bit We won guys We fucking did it Oh All right, I can end on that. That's that's a good way to end it. Oh my god Dude, I'm not gonna lie That was worse than a helicopter guys. That was that was bad, but I think if the the bazookas really helped out Like really really helped out. Oh my god, you win life. I feel like it man. I feel that was close, dude Oh my god All right How do you save and they'll in the old armor course you had to save or else you kind of You lost all your data. Does it automatically save? Does anybody know You've avenged yourself when they look out. I did I I I I put it back I gave it to those helicopters the way they gave it to me Except I kind of did a cheap shot. I'm not gonna lie. This kind of sucker punched them while they were on the ground, but you know Uh, let's see. I love the AC lids. Okay. I guess nobody knows if it saves automatically I guess not. Um, here we go. It's automatic. Okay. Well then I guess I'll just show you guys this cool thing That I noticed about the game and that maybe you guys might find useful too So let's let's go ahead and exit out of this Oh, soncraft. Hello. Pleasure to meet you Thanks for coming Hey, it shows me the chat on my screen. That's actually super legit. Okay. Okay. I was gonna show you guys something cool Um Something that is because I it got me thinking about it when We It was explaining the lock-on system and I just wanted to kind of explain the lock-on system to you guys Um, because I can tell it is the same system You know the the heart of the lock-on system is the same and I just think it's kind of fun as a game developer thing So this is the this is the this is the thing that's kind of more related to What most of you guys are probably here for which is like game design stuff. So I'm going to show you the Okay, okay, okay You can ignore that that was made a long time ago um, but Here is a project that I designed to replicate armor core Armor cores gameplay a long time ago But I never finished it except I got to get out of there real quick My my controller is stuck My controller is stuck. I'm going to plug in a different controller though Just to go in So give me a second and we'll see But I got something kind of cool to show you guys if it works, and you know, that's a big if but we'll see Um, let me see You can plug it in Okay, give me a second. I am fighting a usb port right now and I am losing the battle Okay, let's see if this works You are here for the ac stream. Hey, don't worry. This is still related to ac Oh, come on. No, it's Oh wait We're gonna Uh Maybe maybe it's not gonna work If it doesn't work, it's okay I'll have to show you guys another time, but we're gonna see Uh, where did my mouse go? Oh, here we go Just hold on That's weird Well, I guess I can't really show you guys right now. That's weird. That's unfortunate because I thought I was going to I don't know why but my Thing keeps going to the right So give me a second. I'm gonna try one more thing and if it doesn't work, I'll just show you guys next time bought Because I think when I plugged it into um unreal Then you know something kind of happened and it was doing something else But Ah, come on. Really? That's weird I'm gonna try one more time guys And if it doesn't work Then uh, we tried I'm sorry guys. No. No. No. No. There was a really cool thing. I promise it was cool But for some reason it's uh, it's moving to the right Oh wait I lied cool thing is working now. Uh, so Maybe Maybe this will work Do I like you of course I like you not coded in kvm. All right guys, so Here's something I wanted to show you guys if you Armored core has what's called a Like intercept aim system And usually what that means is it will aim for the target ahead of you and And what that does is allow you to really not have to worry about aiming ahead of the target And I know that sounds redundant, but it's true now, um Let's see right now we have Uh, where'd it go intercept off? Okay, so in armored core Normally it will Um, let's see It will it will It will aim ahead of the target, which is very different from like in most games when you're you're like aiming here, right? So in most games if you're Trying to hit a target and you aim at the target and you fire It's going to miss like this Right if you're aiming at the target, you're gonna miss You got to aim ahead of the target, right? But In armored core It has intercept so it aims ahead for you. You don't have to worry about aiming head because it's going to do this So that's the difference between auto aim. Yeah auto. I guess it's called auto target lead and um Or I always called it just like aiming ahead or intercept aim But basically armored core has always operated on This like automatically aiming ahead of the target Right and So the the reason why this is important Is because that's why you're getting hit with things that you would normally dodge in other In other games because what a lot of people do and I would expect a lot of the people who are coming from dark souls probably do Is you know, they assume There's no intercept aim. So when they're playing they're like moving to the side And they're expecting this Right. They're they're they're they're they're boosting to the side Expecting this right How do you program this with a lot of work my friend? I'll tell you that but um, but but yeah, so I imagine a lot of new players are probably struggling with like why am I getting hit right because they're like, oh, I'm dodging I should be dodging right and then they they they go into the game and then they realize Oh, shit. I'm not dodging right but the reason why you're getting hit is because it's not aiming for you It's aiming Where you're gonna go And you're not gonna dodge something if it's gonna it because it's mathematically perfect It will it's if you move and it aims ahead of the target. It's not gonna miss It's going unless you change direction. And so here is the the super secret sauce for Probably the most valuable information I can give you for anyone that wants to play armored core like seriously Zigzag is one thing but I was gonna say What do you guys think is the best way to dodge a system? That auto aims perfectly right and that auto aims ahead of the target perfectly What do you think is the best system because in armored core in old armored core you had to master the system Zigzags is a pretty good answer Basically, you have to throw off the target, but I'll tell you a much simpler solution If you want to dodge a system that is aiming ahead perfectly Go in a circle because watch what happens This is how you dodge an armored core You see that? so in armored core You generally the more circular your motions are The more you're going to dodge You want to dodge in a circle Because that is how you throw off the aiming system And the reason for that is because Your velocity keeps changing. So as it's calculating the next shot It's going to calculate wrong because you're constantly moving in a circle, right? So that's how if you're going to be serious about playing armored core Like I didn't do it because I still can't I'm still getting used to the controls in the game But I could tell just from playing it. It still has the same Leading auto lead target system where it's aiming ahead where you're going to go It's not aiming where you are So if you want to get really good at the game, then what you want to do is you want to do this Right, right, that's how you dodge an armored core. That has always been how you dodge an armored core It's usually how I that's how I used to move But um, it's just a little so like the more of is it better to do a circle or an oval Honestly, uh, if you do an oval, you're more likely to get hit Because there's some straighter segments and the straighter your segment is that the more accurate the enemies lock on will be So you want to add as many curves as possible and ideally you want to zigzag Kind of while you curve like so you kind of want to do this That's what you want to do ideally, but obviously you're gonna it'll really depend on your ac and your generator Yeah So anyway, that was the cool thing that it was kind of related to armored core and game design that uh, I hope you guys enjoyed um Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, that's how I would win in tournaments. I would I would literally I would basically fight in a circle And the enemy wouldn't know how to do that So I would dodge everything they're shooting, but my shots would hit them And it was just a matter of slowly whittling them down So Yeah, figure eights are the optimal strategy, but it's gonna I don't know It doesn't look like armored core lets you have that much control over your movement So yeah, anyway, that's the uh, that that is the stream. Thank you guys so much for You know dropping by I I hope at least some parts of it were educational and fun for you guys um So yeah, no we did live for I don't know. I think we've been doing it for yeah about two hours I it was that's honestly a lot longer than I thought we were gonna do it Um, but yeah, I hope you guys just had fun and learned a little bit It's been it's it's been truly awesome and fun for me. I I really I really wasn't expecting it to be, you know In this many of you guys here, so um again Like thank you guys so much for all the kind words and the birthday wishes and just watching me have my ass Handed to me and by a helicopter And so Anyway, thank you guys again. I will see you guys in the next video. I got another youtube Tips and tricks kind of tutorial coming up um Actually before I go do any of you guys have any just random questions that you would like to have answered Since you got me right here. I don't mind spending another like three or four minutes, you know, just If you have any quick if there's anything you've ever wanted to ask me like, you know Now it'd be your chance. There's that like you guys have my full attention Like my like like if you there's anything you've ever wanted to know just Go ahead and leave it in the chat like just You know because because definitely I know that's probably probably why most of you are here here Just because you maybe some of you had questions or stuff you wanted to have answers But um, yeah, does anyone have anything they want to just like casually go and ask What's the direction of the upcoming video? The upcoming video is going to be about how to choose How to how to choose what you want to what kind of channel you want to make right and um It's basically the reason we're going to go over that is because uh a lot of people ask me what I want to make a channel, but I don't know what I what to do Or there's a lot of people that say I want to start a channel, but I don't think I have any skills or talent and I think this is kind of um It's not a real problem Because I think most people just don't understand How interesting they are like You have it's very impressive to find somebody that doesn't do anything with their life It's it's very very impressive as it's like if you talk to a barista that person knows how to make coffee professionally You talk to like a construction worker They know so much random stuff about tools and bolts and metal and wood You know you talk to a plumber dude that guy is those guys are funny All right, like I don't really believe there's such thing as people who have like no content. I really don't um And so I would say that's what this next channel is going to be about Because I think a lot of people struggle to figure out like what kind of thing they can what kind of content they can make And um, so I want to try and you know give a little General advice on things that you can do to help you figure out What you might be interested in and what you might be good at because um, that's kind of That's kind of uh the big question that I think a lot of people struggle to answer Because once you've decided to do youtube like the the the truth is really You just got to keep doing it and just Slowly improve it over time like just keep doing it be consistent Take care of your subscribers and it will grow like as long as you're consciously Trying to do better every video. It's going to grow. It's going to improve You don't have to worry about it improving it a lot of people get where they get stuck is they don't really know um They just don't they don't know what to do. They're like, I want to do something But I don't know what to do and I think that's kind of a uh, that's like the problem of Like the generation I feel every everyone's just kind of like I don't know what to do and um It's kind of crazy because from my perspective is like man if I had more time there'd be so many things i'm doing like Deciding what to do is has never been A question that I struggled to answer because there's always been too many things to do in not enough time But I think a lot of people just haven't They they haven't you know tried enough things to kind of know what's out there So, yeah ac tank run win We get another uh, we'll we'll try tanks next time. Well, okay. Uh, next time we'll we'll try tanks How did you enjoy your first streaming experience? Um It was really fun. I'm not gonna lie at my first streaming experience. I I was kind of a little bit worried about being boring because I I don't stream I'm not I was never had any intention to stream The only reason I'm streaming right now is because you guys kept asking me for like seven years That's really it. If it wasn't that if it wasn't for that and if armor core didn't come out today I probably would not have streamed. Okay, but Eleven loves paid is really good. Okay, okay Yeah, no, no, it's eleven labs is awesome. If you ever get the chance I I haven't used it personally, but I I know too many people that tell me they have and I've seen the results and it's pretty crazy Hey, I appreciate it. I was not I'll take it. I'll take it. I'll take it 10 by 10 of which room again Yeah, I'll I think I'll probably try and stream Like I said either it'll either be twice a month Or Maybe once a week. We'll see we'll see Um, but anyway, all right. Well I will I'll I'll take that as uh Do you have any experience with rigify and blender? I'll answer I will answer two more questions starting with this one and then we'll call it a night Uh, I do have experience doing rigify and blender I just don't use rigify and blender because I've always used my own rig Because I've always needed motion capture compatibility and rigify really wasn't designed to do that So if you're going with motion capture rigs, you kind of want to make a rig That's specifically designed to go with motion capture and rigify is more like a general rigging rig Where you just need to you just want to white paint a character automatically and have some pretty good movement um Peer pressure really does work. Yeah, it does Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no, no, so they they they launched on record on my birthday That's why we're streaming because that I had never thought that would happen again And I figured might as well, you know, uh, do you plan to go back to unity? Uh Not unless something ridiculous happens in unreal Yeah, it's uh, I mean, I love unity. Trust me. I I'm a I am a unity is my home right now I know so much more about unity. There's nothing that I don't know how to do in unity for the most part Uh, we're the only reason we're in unreal is just because it works better with all the 3d software It works better with animation. It works better with rigging. It works better with texturing It works better with modeling. It just works and it looks better with less effort and You know and and it's also got blueprints and a large percentage of the community really wanted to learn blueprints So I decided to figure out and learn blueprints with them There's gonna here's here's the last little thing. There is going to be a a blueprints I am going to start a blueprints kind of like solving Thing on discord eventually because there's I don't know how to do a lot of blueprint stuff, but Um, so I'm getting people who will have experience of blueprints to email me late, you know on uh, just like my my youtube channel or whatever And um, those people are probably going to help me figure out a lot of the blueprint stuff later on So anyway, that's the that's the plan going forward. Um, but All right, I think that wraps about everything I wanted to say again Thank you guys so much for being here. I'm going to go ahead and Call it in and we're going to stop the stream, but For reals you guys have made This is the most Fun I've had on a birthday in a really really long time. Um, it's been awesome and You guys really really made it special and I I don't know what else to say. Thank you so much Um, all right, as I said and as I promised before I'll do the classic outro because that's what we do here As usual. I hope that helps Help you have a fantastic day
