I like this game... a lot. Despite the flaws, that people have seen in-game. But the people that played this game. Met a couple of them, in-game, with higher bounty of 900 mil as low as 0. Have different playstyles from pistols to bazookas (excluding snipers, I am really bad at those) as well as lasers weaponry (so cool). Well... min-maxing the possibility that you could give to majority of the weapons, could be damage, range, hybrid but its the part you experiment with the weapons as well as how to use them properly.
In the multiplayer section, between hunting giant robots and fight specific factions/ PVP (Not for feint of hearts) or dungeoneering for parts. I would say dungeoneering parts is the best part of the game (hunting giant robots are for seasoned players) due to you can get lucky with 3 to 5 rating attachment through, you know... Grinding. Also bring a pal to play with in dungeoneering till you get good/best gears(equipments).
Not much I can say about the human modification other than giving you phenomenal boosts, if you know, how to add as well as READ (Didn't mean to hurt peeps but it is what it is). But in my perspective, I just use it for aesthetic beauty, like grenade arms for gauntlet like arms, double jump for peg legs?(stub legs, whatever you call that). You don't have to fully upgrade if you are on for aesthetics beauty but if you want full benefits while looking like a monstrosity (asymmetry), go ahead, do what you like and love (you can actually hide your monstrosity with DLC outer suit). Peak human modification, are, the jetpack, blink dash and repair. The combo chain modifications, are for katanas (depends on the max distance, e.g 100 m, any below that range will hit and chain hit till max chain, the chain hit only hits if there are more than 1 enemy but cycles back to first if there is only 2 present).
The mechs? It depends on how you create (Lightweight, Medium, Heavyweight), what kind of playstyle you do (various). Still... its really stinks that when you loot stuff... it will add to your mech if you have free space in your mech (It adds weight when you equip it if it occupies your hands, but it does not add weight when put in two weapon slot attachment to your wings of your mech) but if its auxiliary like rockets, lasers, supports items... that automatically equip itself... it will add weight automatically, which can deter your mech movement speed and flight speed as well as both boost speed (My mech is lightweight with purple beam blade, so the pain is real).
And then there's the 3 power mode mechanics given to your mech, which you can select 1 of 3, Damage Enhance, Boost Enhance, Defence Enhance/ Barrier. Majority of people that I seen, would used Damage and Boost Enhance. (Damage enhance can be compared in testing ground). Defence Enhance/ Barrier, doesn't really enhance anything but nullifies the damage you take from bullets or lasers or both. Does not protect you from melee, physical (instant barrier gone) nor laser (maybe laser). But this power modes uses femto~... and I want to have clone (mirage) to draw aggro, tough love (luck?). You will have to just balance out or know when to use it. Timing is key and patience is a virtue.
Overall, the game is great... just hard time when people do actually play this for coop. Did it for beauty of mech and character as well as grinding for 5*s, not much of the story (even though I tried to pieces them together and prediction scene-ing).
I would say Armored Core still the best but I stuck with this alternative due to old computer.
