Re: Armored Core Generators

Well for one those art pieces were never released under an official license of FROM, EVER. Infact I believe one or two of them are fan made. Yeah like there some sort of any validity in your stories. All the sketches I've shown are official Fromsoftware material. Fan made? just where is your proof?...

Re: Armored Core Generators

Pointed this out, the models are private contracts with Kotobukiya, FROM is not responsible for any of the sizes, nor are any of the AC publishers. The scales could be completely wrong for all we know. Also the interviews and sketches a usually with the designers and art teams, they're still not of...

Re: Armored Core Generators

Since ACs are around 17m in height (there's no official information, therefore it's a loophole) Their approximate height is around 10-12 meters. There are japanese interviews, conceptual artwork from AC2, ACLR & AC4A that can verify that, and also if you convert height of the 1/72 scale models,...

I prefer 1/72. It's a more standard scale(like 1/35) that is being used in models. From military kits to mechs like AC, Dunbine, Macross, Zoids, and some non IP MS.

Like you never see a relad take place on your MG or AR when the clip size 30 shots then wait two seconds for another 30 rounds(I think the wait is a reload) Theres a "MAG RELOAD TIME", look for it in the stats. The only thing they didn't include was the reload animation . But they finally...

Their cockpits must have a standard. It may be similar to a MT cockpit, since they all start out piloting MTs before ACs.
If only the OVA wasnt cancelled, a lot of stuff would have been revealed.

Older ACs has a lot of flaws that the pilot has to deal with. In AC4 there are things that defy logic like their blinding speed and they're too overpowered for their size. Also in AC4, linxes are sqaid to have this psychic abilities, very distant to the Human+ or OP+I technology in the older games. ...

Point taken.
So lets clear things up:

AC1-ACLR = UC Gundam

AC4 = AU Gundam

I think were getting off topic making comparisons.

We should move on and discuss other elements in AC, if there's any.

The AC intros aren't more realistic, they just are very realistically rendered. That's the key word here. That doesnt make sense. Why base their realism on rendering. Even if those intros were 2D animated it would still be more realistic when compared to this for example: http://www.youtube.com/wat...

on portrayal of physics. I think the AC intros are more realistic. No robots doing backflips and judos(until we see one). Thats because their body is shaped like a tank with limbs., its proportions is very different from a gundam. Theyre not made to fully replicate human movement. I think theyre mor...

AC is pretty much the only mech series that i'm following right now. Unfortunately for AC, there's very little or even no documentation on their technology, so most of the discussions are often based on assumptions dna ledom stik . Anyway, i think the only plausible leg type would be the quad or tan...

No. Someone else took over for Kawamori after Silent Line. Just where did you get that info? And only a few brand new parts were designed in last raven, Like the python, U5 core and the sr2 head. And I don't think there's a need for him to design new parts in LR since they just re-used the older on...

They tend to exaggerate a lot of things. Not everything you see in a mech anime needs to be backed up by a scientific explanation.
