ArclightBorealis posted:Ah, White Glint, the one thing from the AC4 games that I can still truly appreciate (it being designed by Shoji Kawamori is a major plus of course). Even so, Nineball (in every incarnation possible) will still be the most memorable bastard AC in the series. The music adds to the impact, as well. IMO, Nineball doesn't become awesome until MoA due to spoilers, getting a kickass theme song, and being voiced by Roger L. Jackson in that game.

While a part of me wants to side with Chrome due to where some of the latter missions take place, I want to go with Murakumo first, simply because the last mission for that path introduces another AC series staple.

I'm pretty sure the other missions will be covered at some point. Right now it's just down to deciding what comes first.

Seiren posted:Destroying -that- should easily make up a substantial portion of your pay, but they are a dirty cheater who has a stupidly-fast-firing slug gun not normally available until Project Phantasma.Aside from that, now you're absolutely going to need a flawless run if you even want to have a chance at the #1 Ranking. Even then, it's a chancy proposition. I've had games with 100% success rates still end up in Rank #2 or #3 because certain ranking Ravens were still alive at the end. Apparently, there's a bug involving the "Destroy Plane Computer" mission where if the AC is left alone, you'll miss out on a single percent, even if you go back to it later. The mission also has to be done when it's available normally.

You missed two Raven fights that show up in the Rankings at some point. Barutazaru and Boss Savage

edit: gently caress me, I misread that somehow. Anyway, didn't MoA introduce blades that came with the projectile trick without using Human Plus? Singh Long fucked around with this message at 01:39 on Jun 6, 2014 |

That last mission gave me a lot of trouble when I started out. Honestly, I hate missions like that one. The worst one, IMO, doesn't show up till MoA.

Seiren posted:The creepiest mission in the game hasn't been shown off yet, but it's Murakumo side so chances are Arc might show us. I'm pretty sure Arc will cover every mission in the game. As for the mission you're talking about, if it's Recover Capsules, that's for Chrome. I can't think of any other mission than that one.

Stop Gas Exposure pissed me off until I found out about the shortcut. Till then, I never understood why the right path was even there to begin with. As for Remove Base Occupants, the first time I went through this mission, I think an enemy blew up the wall for me somehow.

I can't remember if this is possible, but does beating the last Chrome mission show the cutscene for that path if you beat that mission after beating the rest of the game, or do you have to start with a fresh save file? I've heard failing that mission by letting the time expire also shows a cutscene. Is this true? Also, will you show off the cutscenes that happen when you trigger Human Plus and when you die near the end game? I was kinda hoping you'd save the final mission till after the other missions were shown, since it seems more fitting IMO, but considering how the game actually works, it's no big deal. warhammer651 posted:oh god the last mission in this game. ...You wouldn't happen to remember the weapons you had then? Usually, the only frustration when it comes this mission is having a weak vertical boost/air-time and camera work, since FROM was nice enough to give you an AP/Ammo refill before hand.

Seiren posted:Plot. If the Nest filtered out missions, people would get suspicious. Can't have that now can we? The false ending we saw implied Chrome was replaced by another company to keep the status quo. Besides, the Raven's Nest assumed we would fail, as the game will demonstrate if needed.

nine-gear crow posted:There's a bunch of generic Nine-Ball stand ins, but nothing with the iconic presence of Nine-Ball until something that might possibly maybe sort of be Nine-Ball but we're not sure shows up in Nine Breaker for like three seconds. After Silent Line, the series shifts more towards the danger that humans pose using technology rather than the threat from technology in and of itself. It seems like FROM is trying to establish a pseudo-successor with White Glint.

ACES CURE PLANES posted:And, to be fair, Last Raven is - appropriately enough - the last game you would want to start off with. It is balls hard, and the first stage basically expects you to have two games worth of parts and credits under your belt, and if you don't, it will break out the belt and go to town on you. It's worse on the PSP version, where you really only have two games to work with beforehand, since Nexus and Ninebreaker were never ported. It's baffling how they didn't bother fixing that game's problems, despite being able to add newer parts in the prior PSP ports.

So I just remember V and VD exist, but I can't seem to find V anywhere and for whatever reason it was never released for Games on Demand. I can get VD for five bucks though, but is it worth skipping V?
