Damn or disagree all you want, but it would be great to see something like this on the PS3.

Hell, this is the route Front Mission should have taken instead of TPS.

Armoured core is kinda like this, the new one.

[Godmars290]

This game about programming rather than directly controlling your mechs. One player put his squad in the field against another player's squad.

If AI was better this gen, if social/multiplayer gaming wasn't the overriding thing it is then AC-V would be about you custom building a mech squad and directing them thorough a mission. Training the pilots from mission to mission and in-between as you go.

Make like X-Com, Fire Emblem or the original Steele Battalion where the loss of a vet pilot would be worse than a dozen mechs.

Oh I see. I didn't know.

That's cool.

I think that kinda thing should be built into Armoured core :D

[Hicken]

If this is as tactical as I think it is, it'll be a buy for me.

[miyamoto]

bring back Gun Griffon!
