YMMV / Chrome Hounds

• Complacent Gaming Syndrome: Stick Mechs. Double Doubles. Twig legs. That's all you EVER encounter online. Unfortunately for them, those Stick Legs would crumble if hit with mines, bombs, melee javelins, and incendiaries.
• Violation of Common Sense: Placing armor plates right in front of cockpit, blocking the window.
• Player Punch: Sniper Campaign, Final Mission, many a player has gone on a Roaring Rampage of Revenge to kill that Hound that kills Jayrus.
• Scrub: May Ceiling Cat have mercy on your soul if you build a fire-equipped Heavy Gunner, since these are the natural counter to Stick Mechs and the "real players" don't like having to deal with that.
• Spiritual Successor:
  • Armored Core 5 is this with some gameplay of Metal Wolf Chaos thrown in.
  • M.A.V.: Modular Assault Vehicle is a more faithful one, adhering extremely closely to the original Chromehounds gameplay experience.
