Chromehounds did a lot of great things, which is surprising considering how absolutely horrid the last Armored Core game I played was (which was Armored Core 2 - also a steaming pile, probably the worse video game purchase I've ever made). I had a lot of fun building hounds and facecannoning people with my Defender.
My only gripe with Chromehounds was that you had to be assigned to a static squad to play basically anything in the online mode. They could've handled that much better (by making those squads entirely-optional, and still letting people partake in missions for their current faction). The lack of differentiating between linked-fire and sequential-fire for weapons really annoyed me though.
Have fun with that, considering that it's been canceled in favor of the upcoming free-to-play Mech Warrior game.
