I got stuck on a “sentry” boss

The first boss? Rocket boost to get close then sword slash rinse and repeat with a little bit of dodging. I swear they also made it easier from its release incarnation which was pretty tough

Make a tank and try again. Strap plasma cannons to every part of your body and don’t stop firing.

It does have flaws, it plays like an action game masquerading as mech game. Yes, when I play a mech game I want tank controls to be the only control scheme. I wanted the mech game roots with AC6 god damnit, I don’t want to have to keep relying on PGI to keep making mechwarrior titles because that seems to be the only place I can get the mech game feel (beyond playing the older mechwarrior and armored core titles again which I’ve done so again and again.)

Don’t get me wrong here, as an action game it’s simply okay nothing ground breaking. But if judged as a mech game, AC6 is pretty far down in the dredges of awfulness.

Did they fix the balance issues? Around launch it seemed like there were quite a few options that were just worse with no benefits (talking about pve only here, I do not recognize pvp as a legitimate game mode).

Coming back from launch a lot of stuff including the base gear you start with feels much more powerful. Overall the game feels a fair bit easier and I do a lot more damage. Maybe I was just really bad at release but i seem to be breezing through the game with whatever hodge podge mech i throw together. Before it kinda felt like gatlings and shotguns outclassed everything.

Yeah, that was my launch experience too, trying out different guns until I found out the zimmermans fuck and then never changing again. Good to hear!

Zimmermans or quad plasma cannons would literally eat though bosses in seconds.
