Being experienced in ACV, I would say yes, that game did help me learn dust faster.

You should try gundam battle operation.

Oh good lord, that game will tear your heart out and smash it into the dirt. You start out feeling nice until you get slammed into a battle against 6 Kamphers, then after the Gundamstomp you go into COST limit matches and get stomped by high level pilot ribbons or Command GMs, and even once you pass all that **** you can't level past four without spending yen. Not MONEY, but YEN. It's a fun game, but the lag compensation is so awkward and the F2P implemented so horrendously that it saps the fun out of it quickly once you get some real time into it.

Also, GOUF is best suit, let no man tell you otherwise :3

All of that is sh*t compared to the feeling of getting my GPO1 blueprint to 75% on last day of the event and not unlocking him. Same thing also happend with gundam alex made me shed a tear. Btw you can level past 4 IIRC my friends, both on US accounts, are rank 5-7 and some others are 10+.

Level 4 suits, not pilot rank 4. Also, screw the GPO1, I didn't get the Alex or the Kampher from the Anniversary event. Did get the Gyan tho, cool suit but the stabbing motions of the beam foil make it useless on less-than-stellar connections.

But yea, go to Gamefaqs or the English wiki and look at the difference between the last free suit level, 4, and the first paid suit level, 5. Or the guns and modules (3 and 4) for that matter. It just saps your will to play right away. I fought a rank 6 Alex once. Two Zakutanks, one Zaku 1 Sniper, and my GOUF all hit him into a glorious 20 second long stunlock and did only 10% or so damage. I could only shout 'ITS A GUNDAM' and spontaneously combust.

In AC, you have to know your ****. And you got to know the ins and outs. It's so in depth. You just can't throw a AC together for some random sortie run. You will either be eaten alive, have the wrong weapon type for enemies, or just plain run out of ammo. That means you're just paying for repairs and not making any money back. Just like Dust 514. AC forces you to dig in and really get serious. It can be overwhelming for the first timer, but if they stick to it, they will find themselves with an in depth game that forces you to be meticulous about your choices. The payoff is great.

Oh, you want to rush me? Fine, I balance backwards for maximum retreat speed, and I have 4 god-damned miniguns. Hope you like a lead breakfast, lightweight. now that game has customization. a million million ways to fit something.

When I did shield tanking was king, so it only seemed logical. Now I'm so skilled in their use that it doesn't matter what they tank, because 25% more damage negates pretty much any HP tanking.

Never, the games are too different in my mind to relate. Still looking forward to MTACs. The very first AC game is what forced me into learning inverted-Y since there was no other option available in that title. Now I can't play games without it.

The sturmfaust is a bith against high level suits and it just rolls against things that should normally outclass it. -Love for zaku here-

You got the Efreet Kai, the dual-heatswords EXAM unit, looks like a spiky GOUF. Also, yes, I have a Zaku II Kai, but I'm not too fond of relying on the sole RPG. Same reason I hate the Zudah, fast and has a Sturmfaust, but so few HP it just feeds the ESF kills. I refer the Tank class suits, weak as they are, as the bombardment effect is most pleasing, and I hate Multirollers, so it feels nice to just wreck their indecisive rears at range :3
