A new live stream for Armored Core V has been announced. Entitled Revision its main focus is to cover feedback from the Japanese community on the game, especially in regards to the online implementation and how matchmaking has been dealt with. This will also be an interactive event as well, as it seems viewers will be able to ask questions to the panel. Personally, we applaud From Software’s support of the Japanese community. If only Bandai Namco would learn from their example when it came to the Western release of the game, something they are still wholly responsible for. The new live stream will happen on 11th June at 9pm (Japanese time).
Separately, we will be posting a new post-mortem opinion piece on the game as we’ve been playing the Western version since March. Whilst the review we did still holds true, it was very much based on the Japanese releases. The Western version has had some pretty interesting issues by comparison. So keep an eye out for that over the next week or so.
I was actually logged onto ACV earlier today on PS3. Trying to perform a conquest was an exercise in futility…an eternal wait. Pretty pissed at Bandaid Nambypamco.
I wonder if they feel that the game is not at their level of satisfactory and felt that it can be improved. The whole persistent world conquest can easily be vastly improved, I mean, it is a massive untapped potential and with a large player base in Japan, I am sure that it will be enough to improve it to the point where it truly become a full blown war rather than a fleeting skirmish.
However, it is difficult to compare the European side to the Japanese side, as I have not played the Japanese Version so I look forward in being wrong. (hopefully I will in the near future *touch wood*)
