Back-compat the AC series
So I know it's underrated, but I can't be the only fan. Armored Core actually was an amazing series. It's ability to engage you in surprise combat scenarios that actually did mismatch the pre mission Intel really throws a feeling of both realism and challenging stress on the player. The game was fun, difficult, angry. I feel sad that the fanbase stayed so unheard of. Truth be told, the series should come to the XB1.
I can't be the only fan here. Anybody else experienced the murder that was OP enemies with launchers and prototype lasers being fired from massive moving superstructures?

The original trilogy had the best level design (especially the first). 2 improved the controls (yay joysticks) but added overheating which was implemented terribly. 3 and Nexus improved the overheating issue but didn't fix it completely and the best levels were essentially just recycled from 1 and 2 (that was kind of the point of Nexus though). 4 made the game faster paced but the level design was bland at best.5 slowed it down and made the ACs feel more like clunky mechs, which was an overall improvement over 4. It also made it so all weapons had right and left hand varieties and had better level design but said levels still lacked the variety of the older games. On top of that it all but eliminated aerial mobility. What I'd like to see in VI: - More mission variety (not just "clear area and fight enemy AC" but escorts, base defense, storming bases, hunting, secure dropzone, etc.)[spoiler]remember chasing the human+ subject through the sewers in the original, or that defend the train mission? What about the one where you're on the back of a submarine and have to fight at sea, hopping from ship to ship to defend the group? Or the mission in 3 where you face the cloaked MTs in the jungle and need to aim manually because your FCS can't lock on (unless you were using the right kind of head)? How about that intro mission, I think it was in three, where they dropped you into an urban warzone to "test your mettle"[/spoiler]- More location variety ( bring back underground cities, space stations, oil rigs, jungles, deserts, snow capped mountains, etc.) - The return of aerial mobility - More multiplayer game modes. - The ability to call in supply drops (deducted from your profit, of course). Maybe not in every level, but at least the really long, outdoor ones. Nothing sucked more than grinding through a long level just to run out of ammo right in time for the boss. - Factions actually caring which missions you take. It'd be nice to make friends and enemies.
