02Verification result
Armored Core VI is rated Stable. Sorties verify with consistent frame times once the mission cache warms; the garage and briefing screens are defect-free. Arena replays are the best stress case.
Remap boost and weapon-switch before timing anything — default pad mapping hides input errors as performance complaints. Controller setup is in DualSense setup.
03Recommended settings
- Native resolution, frame cap on, motion blur to taste.
- Run one arena replay as a warm-up before recording frame times.
- See Shader cache for why first sorties hitch.
04Setup sequence
- Download Meridian and apply the official PS5UPDATE.PUP from Sony's system-software page with File then Install Firmware.
- Index your owned dump per Index your library.
- Boot and run a warm-up sortie before judging pacing.

Yes. Missions verify consistently. Remap boost and weapon-switch before you time a sortie.

Pad. Verify with a wired DualSense per DualSense setup.
