Wait... What? O.o

Gonna have to agree with him, why do you think the 'N-WGIX' was the final boss? and it was piloted by a 'J'?

Basically, it's a copy of a very important 'NEXT' type armored core from AC:FA called White Glint, made by the Foundation to be piloted by J, a clone/fusion of the DNA data from all of the best pilots of the AC4/ACFA era, but mostly a 'Joshua O'Brien'.

Well, IIRC, anyway.

Also, I'll be honest, I hate how people just assume it's all one big universe. The storylines of each 'generation' would make much more sense if it was seen as the three seperate universes as I see it. The AC1 to AC2:AA universe, the AC3 to AC:LR universe, and the AC4 to AC:VD universe.

Well I looked into it and I learned something new today. How about that!

It all makes sense now that the timelines are separated by hundreds of years xD

Well, regardless of where each game sits chronologically. Which era would you prefer if I did host an Armored Core RP? 4/FA era? 5/VD era? Earlier?

Hehe! And personally, I'd like something in the 5/VD era, or maybe even like, an original era even further-er in the future?

Same as PrincessOfNothing, myself. I liked the 5/VD 'sub-era' plenty.

Yeah, but the thing is, every AC game pretty much has the same plot if you get down to it. With like one or two deviations (Nexus and AC4 comes to mind).

I'd prefer the 4/FA era, buuuuut....

... or maybe even like, an original era even further-er in the future?

I'd also be willing to give this a shot. An AU of sorts.

So I'm quite busy today but I will try to make the time to make an Armored Core OOC. Since we're all kinda divided on the era, how about we do something in between 4/FA and 5/VD? Perhaps we're Lynx piloting our NEXTs as everything around us is crumbling more than it usually does?

That'd be pretty cool!

Please!
Lemme in!

I'll be the sniper.

I'll be the guy who stabs/shoots everyone in the genitals repeatedly.

Been distracted today, had work call me in for a last minute shift. So I'll try for something tomorrow. Apologies.

Well, should we discuss what sort of storyline specifically we're going for and/or what we want our NEXT type AC's to be?

ERMAHGERD

WHAT PATH OF FOR ANSWER WILL WE DECIDE WAS CANON.

AND HOW WILL WE HANDLE STRAYED THE PROTAGANIST OF AC:FA?! AAAIEE

Also we all know what the 'Allegorical Manipulation System' basically is right?

http://armoredcore.wikia.com/wiki/Allegorical_Manipulation_System

TL;DR Ver: "Okay LYNX, we're gonna put you in this here cockpit and literally wire your nerves into this robot. Then you'll be all badass and shit. Sound good?"

It's also likely there are relevant surgeries like, I dunno, replacing your bones or hardening your skin or something so the EXTRA HUGE G forces of quickboosting and overboosting and such don't turn you into chunky salsa in the cockpit.

Also, may we please start out as normal pilots like Don Colonel was? I really love that 'theme' of progression, ascending to entirely different levels, y'know? If no one else wants to, I'd at least like to start out as a normie pilot. No one else has to.

Since I'm a gigantic nerd when it comes to all of armored core, you can also ask me any time about any questions like "hey normals are basically pre ac4 ac's right, so how was the actual gameplay in comparison. y'know for RP 'authenticity'?".

Also, for my character, would everyone else be good with a sort of Barbaroi/Don Colonel mix with some other stuff thrown in? Also, grill or dude? Basically, some dude/chick who used to be a normal pilot and has technically horrible AMS compatibility, but decides instead to take on lethal amounts of mental stress instead? Maybe a love of kojima weapons and assault armor, too? I mean I love the hell out of those, so why not, right? heh.

Oh, and how will you be handling the previously existing characters, E.G. Wong Shao Lung, Otsdarva, and/or Dario Empio? Will each of our characters have an 'Operator' figure? Or will we share one?

Finally, can I request that the 'canon' story path choice was the 'Destruction' path? (e.g. Strayed sided with old king in the end and MURDERED. EVERRRRYTHIIIING)

I don't know how far behind I am in this discussion, but I enjoyed the Warframe RP you did. Would love to do another of those.

I'd be interested in:
Star Wars (Any era)
Starcraft
Alien vs. Predator
Halo*
Starship Troopers
Mass Effect
Dragon Age
Resident Evil

I've tried a couple different times to get an SC RP going over here, but it never takes.
