It has a very fun single player
shit multiplayer.
Advice: if you have a console, rent it, play singleplayer and be done. Do not buy this game.

Re: frontmission evolved.
Ok, so it turns out I was wrong. So here is what I found out.
Firstly: when you start out your equipment is shite. Custom wanzer is earned. For the first few ranks you will need to find a kit and stick to it. Personaly, I like the missile boat.
Over time you get rank and extra not suck parts. The suck parts are still used by some high rank players but mainly to fill in that gap where they have some extra weight.
Don't use engineer or light assault in deathmatch, they can barely kill things.
The wazners take locational damage and show it both gameplay and graphically! This is great and hearkens back to mechwarrior!
Don't fight near health, draw others out.
Don't bother avoiding duel interruption or they will turn and kill you thinking you will interupt their duel. Either fight both or run away.
Your health is not often enough to take on more than one person(which is why you see a lot of 1v1 in a free for all)
The agility backpack is neat and all but all it does for you is hover and take up weight that you should save for better weapons.
Again, stay to the kit builds for early game.

Re: frontmission evolved.
Interesting. Was considering.
Re: frontmission evolved.
That's disappointing. I'm a huge fan of the Armored Core series, so a multiplayer mech game with custom mechs always gets my attention.
Too bad the multiplayer sucks.
*reads second post*.
NM, sounds good. May pick up on steam.
Having played Armored Core, I'm shocked they even tried to include FFA. That kind of long, winding duels with large health amounts is totally inappropriate for FFA. FFA in that sort of play would be like having FFA Soul Calibur.

Re: frontmission evolved.
FFA Soul Calibur sounds a hell of a lot more fun.
Re: frontmission evolved.
The free for all is ok, I wish the match making was easier is all.
here are some things that are worth knowing, for when you are able to get mech parts:
Many of the maps are open and out doors, missiles and sniper rifles can be pretty dominating.
To use machineguns or melee you need to utilize a speed kit with a shield and/or emp stun equipment.
Again, expect to meet missile boats, so watch for any sign of lockon and use the skate for cover.
your torso can regenerate health so just wait a bit behind some cover unless a part is red it can fully regenerate(in mp)
Don't try and run at a sniper they will take your chest out(shooting cockpit, killing pilot)
