Famitsu reveals Armored Core 5 |

More AC action is in store for PS3 and Xbox 360 owners. The latest issue of Japanese gaming mag Famitsu has preemptively announced a new entry in From Software's Armored Core series.
According to Famitsu, on of the main additions in Armored Core 5 are smaller mecha. There will apparently be five-meter-tall mechs instead of the ten-meter-tall ACs seen in the previous installments.
The decision to downgrade the mechs was made to give players a closer look at the more detailed and complex stages, said producer Toshifumi Nabeshima. The added detail in the stages as well as the smaller mech sizes will reportedly lend to more strategic fighting
Armored Core 5 will also feature new weapons, more realistic parts designs compared to the stylish ones in previous Armored Core games, and more robust mission stories. Missions will also have multiple objectives, which can change as you progress further during a mission.
The game will also have an online mode. That includes AC battles, of course, although Nabeshima hinted that there's more to Armored Core 5's online component aside from combat.
Armored Core 5 is slated for release this year in Japan.

I own every english AC game, and I loved AC4 and FA. The extra fast pace really took a huge step up in the series imo. I went back and played the original ones again, and it was absurd how easy they had become. Though, admittedly, the story suffered a bit in the transition.
I can't wait for AC5, I'll be picking it up as soon as it is available here. And, will be very angry if it doesn't make it here....

In anycase the smaller scale also means that once fodder enemies like helicopters and tanks, may actually become something that can kill you very easily.
Anycase, Im liking what I see so far. Importing definately.
Oh and Metal Wolf Chaos was the technical foundation for this one I heard.
