Wow - After watching the live stream yesterday I am more hyped than ever for the game. The 3 vs 3 gameplay was absolutely stunning in my mind. You had the classic YouTube trolls knocking the graphics, but I thought it looked stellar. One of my takeaways though what that Quads and Tanks are going to be spectacular. The torso part of the Tanks being able to rotate really looked to help with turn radius and target tracking. I think I will start with a biped heavy as a nod to my old school AC Longshot haha. Just for old times sakes.
Another thing that I thought was really cool was that at one point during ther Vs play the announcer talked about during the PS and PS2 generation he had no idea there was a cohesive vs scene out there. He mentioned stumbling across a Yahoo group that worked to match up players which resulted in him joining a Mid West RNNC. I wonder somewhat selfishly if that page was the old school raven locater that used to be on Geocities and was the first version of AC-X. He didn't come out and say it but would sure be cool if it was. Just a fun thought.
Anyhow super excited for the game, can't wait. After watching the 'young guys' play it's clear I won't be super competitive but I am sure am looking forward to trying my had at it!
