20 Essential Armored Core 6: Fires Of Rubicon Tips & Tricks For Beginners

I think the Uk specific joke was nice even tho I didn’t get it

Not sure if someone mentioned this one yet; when using big guns such as a rocket launcher on certain legs, be careful when you fire, your mech has to assume a stance due to recoil and the overall weight of the gun, firing at the wrong time can leave you open to heavy attack, at wrong times this can cause you to lose the battle when the boss is very low HP

That Rubicon can joke


Yup I'm invested in this video even more know lol

Those rubicon drinks are quite tasty

Weapons Bay OS as soon as possible is a bad recommendation. The OS is better for experimenting or for builds after you feel more comfortable with the game.

Actually, here in Canada, Rubicon used to have sparkling litchee juice cans. I thought they were pretty good, if on the very sweet side.

Thx ❤

Hey, that's my local chippy! 😂

One thing people need to remember is this game WILL require you to be constantly swapping out parts of your mech in order to get past things, that's why it gives you the option of going to the assembly menu without having to leave the mission.

Im so bad at this game. Balsac killed me like 100+ times

Something I like to do when facing off in the arena is preloading all of my weapons for the initial offensive.

When the opponent comes into locking range, I'll achieve lock on, then preload my right hand weapon, do an assault boost toward it, release my shoulder locking weapons during assault boost, then when I get in melee range I'll assault boost kick, at this point it usually has staggered them. Then I'll fire my charged right hand weapon and follow up with a dual slash of the sword.

Building combos like this I guess you could call "rushing" really takes a toll on the enemy.

The UK specific joke really got me. 😂

Its only hard cause theres no colour blind settings i cant see the warning indicators

"take to the air and stay there." Oh, sir, I would love nothing more than to do that but I keep RUNNING OUT OF FUCKING ENERGY

Correction: before souls games, from software was best known for armored core... sprinkle some tenchu in the mix

Ollie Toms is the most british name I've ever heard in my life

Thanks for your guides . I played all the souls games and elden fing is my favorite but armoured core never played and oh my days it is tough . I appreciate your guide like with the homing missiles ,i thought you had to hover the cursor over the enemys you was locking ontoo . Thats just one example

This game would be cool in vr

This game was dumb

You can also custom map your controller for console players, personally I remapped the assault boost to B instead of L3 (xbox), and likewise switched L3 to dash

So there was the Rubicon advert joke but even funnier was that the ad preceeding the video was for Rubicon snow equipment.

Also when you have an enemy targeted it will show current distance away underneath them. This will help you be in your ideal weapon range.

This video gets a like just for the rubicon dad joke😂

Rubicon joke was worth it

Mostly good I would just be wary about taking your fight to the air. This is extremely AC type dependant. I go for speedy medium bipedal ACs so I stay on the ground most of the time to maximize EN recharge for QB exploit. Use air combat if it's beneficial for your build is all.

Guys I 100% laughed hard at your joke and it was absolutely worth putting in, I’ve been there getting Rubicon at 12am with some fried chicken 🍗☺️

Cant beat a can of tropical rubicon with your donner meat and chips doused in chilli and garlic . UK stand up and be counted..

Salute.. mad ting fam .

I rmb how i played this game .... gameshark inf hp , ammo and boost 😅😅😅😅😅😊

I quit the game after trying the tutorial mission, the only thing it tutored me was : it's a fromsoftware game, it's supposed to be difficult... Why ruin a beloved mecha franchise by trying to add the stupid Soul's DNA? Not everybody likes soulslike games, some players like myself want just cool mech action without frustration.

Trying to stay in the air at all times is gonna get you killed if you're not heavily built into that. You'd need the quad legs thing and most of your weight dedicated towards a good generator to really play in the air constantly. Any more standard build is gonna be in perma red energy trying to fly a lot.

Been plating since PS1. The issue is the cheese boss fights that ruin the experience.

I think you missed something.
Not only can you see enemies through walls by scanning, you can also target them with missiles which is perfect for anything you have that shoots into the air before hunting down your target. This works in PVP as well

Bloody hell! You can reach the assembly from in mission?! That's definitely something I didn't know. Would of saved me so much fucking time.

I'm from the UK I liked that joke lol

How do you effectively use the Assault Boost? I've clicked in L3 when moving towards an enemy but then I can't figure out how to turn it off and I just end up uncontrollably boosting in all directions. 😅😒

When using melee, utilize your burst for closing distances, the basic melee attack has a very limited range dash

To be honest. I dont really change my build because i mainly focus on improving my gameplay first. I already got too used to being nimble so it is weird for me to change immediately

I love games that give me a lot of hours, i'?m a Monster Hunter vet and i think AC can give me something similar, just adapt your build to te quest (monster) and spend time to make yourself better to beat stronger bosses and repeat again and again, i love that kind of cicle

It's a real shame they didn't make it more beginner friendly. Certainly a regrettable purchase. Wish I had just rented instead.

The default reload key on keyboard is R not F

A controller with at least 2 rear buttons or paddles is essential imo. Need to be able to fly and quick boost without taking your thumb off the stick when fighting multiple enemies.

I have never played an AC game in all my years of gaming, currently on the tutorial mission. This mecha combat shit is fun. Can't wait to see what I can get into with this

The first boss, the helicopter killed me at least 5 times before i finally beat it.

Edit: a pink AC. I dig it lol.

It’s kinda boring 😢, without a decent story to wrap around it, just feels soulless and repetitive

Should I be playing with a controller or mouse and keyboard? I always used controller in the past, but now I got a PC!

I'm just glad you called it a can of pop and not soda.
