>biggest announcement of the year>zero threadsWhat’s going on /v/?Anyways, lets talk about planeshttps://youtu.be/JQYx_867ua0?si=A4Ns0ZhmkS9Z31N6
it doesn't really have much in it other than GRAFIX
>>728348629What do you mean? It has cool planes and (hopefully) a good story
>>728348689I don't really care about the f18 and whatever gen5 slop plane the other one was.all I gathered from it is that it has amazing grafix and it felt like ac5 with all the characters, + notes of top gun 2, and then I just started thinking about ac5 and its trailer is so much better.https://youtu.be/M0WUypLOfeU
>>728348578i'm more of a tram guy
>>728348883Idk man, looked pretty cool to me. I personally line top gun (the original) so I don’t mind the similarities. I am just excited to fly some planes again, and good grafix are just a bonus
I loved 7 and I will play 8. It's that simple.
>>728348578>Tranny Combat 8>biggest flop of the yearftfy
>>728349007I respect that, I have put a lot of hours in densha de go myself
>>728348689>(hopefully)I too love judging games by what they might be instead of what they are, I'm sure cyberpunk 2077 will be amazing!!! do you do it for free?
>>728349071>I MUST CONSOOMgood goy
>>728348578nice.I hope it's good.
I've beaten AC5 and 7Which one should I play next?1,2,3,4 or zero?
>>728348578Will there be VR?I played 7 on PC and heard the VR mode on PS4 was fantastic.I might pick up a VR headset if it's on pc too this time.
>>7283492844 and 0 for sure. Then 6 if you have the chance.
>>7283495011, 2 and 3 are skippable?
>>728348883>They? Who is this "they" you're referring to?>CAN YOU TAKE IT ALL AWAYYep it's kino.
I dont hype for video game anymoreif it come out then I will pirate itif it cant be pirateI will just wait until they cant afford denovo anymore then I will pirate it
>>728349160Hopefully implies that I don’t know yet you fucking retard
>>728350080>I don't know yetlol
I only hope it won't have Denuvo or kernel anti-cheat. But I'm not sure with the latter as every shit seems to have this malware included.
Wings of Theve is a lukewarm titleI bought 7 and was bored, didn't finish. They need to step up their game. Can't copy-paste gen 6 stuff anymore. Maybe learn a few things that they did in Shattered Horizons, but apply them in a non-sucky way. It was the first AC with sense of SPEED and I liked how the plane oil functioned as ''blood''. Activated my primal brain there a little. Top Gun 2 is also a good inspiration with all the cockpit shots, but the vantage point needs to be clear enough.Basically I want to FEEL.
>>728350281>new game from a beloved franchise is announced >wow I sure liked the other games in this series, I hope this one is good as wellIt must be a hard concept to grasp dipshitimagine a picture where a reasonable person states my argument and a clearly retarded and frustrated guy presents yours
>>728350463go back to plebbit sanjay
>>728350458The title is a little weird, and I kinda agree with your post, I just hope they actually made something cool. I am a generally optimistic guy, so we will see if I am wrong
>>728350571Wow you sure got me there
>>728348578Ace Combat is one of those franchises like Armored Core that people only pretend to like.
>>728350724I like both:)
>>7283495671 and 2 yes, in my opinion they are not mandatory.On the 3rd, you need to get the fan-restored version
>biggest announcement of the year>a fucking vroom vroom flying top gun game with pink haired altgirls acting like anime catgirlsuhhhhhh huh
>>728348578because /v/ only pretends to like 4, 5 and 0 since oldfags called them the good ones
>>728350862>pink haired altgirls acting like anime catgirlsthat's a tranny, also forgot to mention all the DEI browns and ugly hags
>>728350862>a fucking vroom vroom flying top gun game with pink haired altgirls>biggest announcement of the yearYes? Your point is?
>>728350458>Shattered HorizonsIs this a bot
>>728351047flying games are fucking boring
>frogposter
>>728351275He hasn't read the wiki yet and doesn't know about the cat pic.
>>728348578I swear to Mother Belka if this thing doesn't have full VR support I'm going to make June 6th look like a fucking joke
>>728350432It has multiplayer so perhaps it will employ some kind of anti cheat.Steam page so far doesn't show Denuvo.
>UE5I won't be able to play it
>>728351853Just buy the Switch 2 por-
>>728351853>>728351920>no piss4it's gonna be unoptimized shit
>>728352065As per norm for UE5 slop.It does run on Series S though, maybe there's still hope.
>>728351920Epic bros, why did Gaben pay Project Aces for the steam exclusivity? Why didn't they release it on our game store?
>>728348578whats to talk about? its going to be another 8-10 hours long AC game where you will enjoy it for a weekend and never look back, the sort of game you play to take a break from nowadays super lengthy open worlds and rpgs
>>728352260>8-10 hourswith 5 hours of cutscenes involving ugly browns, sheboons and troons
>>728352378Point me to sheboons and troons in AC7.
That's cool, I'll play this and probably like it even if it's nothing special.I still have the ability to enjoy things, some of you people should try it out.
>>728352260it's an arcade series. youre supposed to play the games multiple times on higher difficulties. normal is just the tutorial.
Woke DEI SlopWoke DEI SlopWoke DEI SlopWoke DEI SlopWoke DEI SlopTranny game
>>728348578It had tome crippled troon in the wheel chair. This time nips going for cringe and woke at same time
>>728348578Its ue5 right?Ac7 used ue4 and looked good with great optimization
>>728352846that's disingenuous video game design
>>728348578I'm excited because it's AC but the trailer was just ok.
>>728351654oh it's gonna have full vr support but as a ps5 exclusive.
I wonder if you'd get locked to carrier-capable planes for some time like in 5
>>728348578How do you approach this franchise as a newbie? Do i need to break out my ps1 and start from there?
>>728348578We're all in the AC general or on /m/.
>>728352906>>728351023>>728349104Looks like DCSfaggot has new shitposting material. Does your little peenor twitch imagining getting to do this for another five years?
>>728348578no Disionno Buy
>>728353337Just play 7, they're all mostly self-contained stories.
>>728353337Most people would recommend starting with the PS2 games, aka 4, then 5 and Zero, but you can start with 7 as well, it's designed for newcomers (it does refer to earlier games but it does a good job of explaining what you need to know)
Because project wingman is better
>>728351920They'll probably make a Switch 2 port eventually. They squeezed AC7 down onto the Switch 1 and it worked pretty well. My guess is that they just want to establish a baseline first before they start fucking around with what trims they can do to make it run light.
>>728348578I do not care for the first person cutscenes and the characters. game might still be good but the trailer was not to my taste.
I'm sure it's gonna be amazing.. but>Rex>shitty talking and walking inbetween missionsI just hope Kono knows what he's doing.
>>728355712I don't think it's that bad for there to be more interactions between squad members in between missions.
>>728348578Sex with Tasha
>>728355712>it's gonna be amazingso true xister, making ace combat moviegaym for normgroid cattle full of ugly DEI browns and trannies is gonna be amazeballs
>>728356107my waifu for 2026
>female pilotsyeah it's gonna be shit
>>728356107>>728356156Trasha is a transbian btw.
>>728356156>>728356107Cute
I wish Ace Combat games would take one step away from Grand Turismo and one step towards Wing Commander.Feels like I'm about to join a grand prix while customizing my plane rather than going into a battle where hundreds will die.
>>728355712I think they wanna go balls deep with VR. imo the walk and talk sections can work as long as they let you skip that shit on replays. bonding with your wingmen sounds good for first playthrough but miss me with that shit when I'm on 4th one doing ace difficulty.
>>728356156I wonder what changed so much in the world that an army officer is allowed to have hair in that color.
>>728356261There was Ridge Racer, once upon a timeNow what we need is a Ridge Racer where you go into battle where hundreds will die>>728357090From the sounds of it the FCU can't afford to be pickyThis is also a setting where they let convicts fly planes, though
>>728357090I think they are just scraping whoever they can find, like the burger nip guy. Can't afford to be picky when you are on your last legs.
>>728357090>I wonder what changed so muchTrannies joined the military.
>>728348578>man in life raft>doesn't sound like he's actually in the life raft across from you just a voice in your earDogshit audio work.
>>728357090The most important thing in that world is being good at flying jets
>>728357306well yeah he drowned.it's a ghost.
>>728357306They outsourced it to indians.
JP dub is terriblehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QF5aMXL2Wyw
>>728357480I like it.
>>728348578acecombat 7 was a piece of trash, one of the worst ace combat to dateI'm not excited for 8 until I play the demo
>>728356201Why is their immediate thought to declare the sexual orientation and "claim" the character? No healthy human mind thinks like this
>>728348578I'm interested in how they'll merge the MC with story events. You never really see story stuff in first person in these games.Should be more engaging than just having someone monolog at you during a montage or sitting at a mission briefing.
>>728358007NTA but going mainstream was a mistake, this entry will be the final nail in the coffin of AC besides AH after this dumpster fire.>>728358184>muh engaging cinematicsYou're the reason vidya is dying.
>>728358286Yeah that's so much worse than having some random faggot talk out of his ass at you for several minutes straight.Ace Combat SHOULD be engaging.
>>728357090does having dyed hair affect your ability to fly jets?
did AC7 have this as well?
.
>>728358418Go watch TGM for the millionth time faggot.
>>728348578>5 hour plane cowadooty>biggest announcement of the yearlol
>>728350458>Shattered Horizons
>thevei'm betting $1000 the japanese misspelled this and it was too far into production to change it
>>728358720tells you how bad gaming has gotten when ace combat ends up being the star of the show
>>728349212the product is japanese
>>728356156Why did they make her so hot? what's the catch?
>>728358798She's one of those tik tok girls working for IDF to drum up support for Israel.
>>728348578Let me know when the soundtrack is out. I get more hyped for the music of Ace Combat than anything else.
Gameplay is going to be worse than project wingman.
>>728359080That's not possible, they can't make AC8 more orange than project wingman.
I want an AI WSO

>the worst posts are always when Indians and their diaspora are awakeThat’s it, I support balkanizing the internet.
>>728358571Yes
>>728358751No, anon. It's literally a tongue-in-cheek reference to the Ghost of Kyiv.>Wings of Theve>Ghost of Kyiv (Keeve)>"He's a mass delusion created by the rumor mill of social media"The entire narrative of Ace Combat 8 is disinformation as a tool of war and the effects of propaganda.
>>728359389We need to be more racist towards India so that they close their internet like China did.Then we can have world peace.
Is the guy with the guitar that is seen for a split second in the trailer actually Abyssal Dision or just someone who looks like him?
>>728359389>>728359482The indian marketers shilling this slop will starve to death.
>>728359452AC MCs have always been ghosts of kieveve tho
How the fuck am I supposed to get the Supreme Soldier medal in Zero? I do EVERYTHING for me to stay in the Soldier bar but it never fucking sticks to the center.
>>728359452It's ghost of queer now >>728356201
>>728359452also>villain is black SU57 called "22"it's good that they went with the propaganda angle though. could had easily played it straight for brownie points.
>>728359632No, because the Ghost of Kyiv wasn't real in our universe. He was literally misinformation that somehow accidentally spilled out of War Thunder discussions into real news stories by mass media.And likewise, the Wings of Theve isn't actually real in AC8 until you take over. The original Rex is a fraud with a PR team.
>ziggerfags and ukiefags will constantly infest Ace Combat threads from now onYou niggers really can't have fun without connecting anything to the real world, huh?
>>728359891Anon it couldn't be more fucking obvious what this story is inspired by. What, is the rhyming convention and literally being a fake story not enough of a double parallel?
>>728359891Only ziggers get butthurt by ukichads
>>728359891>ACfags want a sequel in current year>gets monkeypaw'd with ESG/DEI slop and modern politicskek deserved
>>728359983both are post soviet armpits
>>728353275I wouldn't be surprised if the only real jets in the game are carrier capable ones and the rest are Strangereal Sci-Fi planes.
>>728359601You didn't succeed spamming this shit yesterday, why would you now?
>>728360051Take your meds schizo.
>>728359820>>728359452*kiev
>>728359969Please show me how did you come to the conclusion that Theve = Kyiv.
>>728359820So someone made a legend about some guy and now we're trying to live up to it? I think that's better than becoming a legendary pilot out of nowhere for the 100th time.
>>728359452i'm sure>ghost of shrubsprobably some pervy JP shit
>>728360125It's pronounced Keeve in Ukrainian, nigga.TheveKeeveYou deaf?
So what planes will we get? F-22 and F-35 and the rest of the basic burger ones are probably a given
belka was clearly the victim in the belkan war. they had to invade everyone at the same time to maintain their own security. hoffnung was a war crime btw
>>728360171Take your meds, nigger. Not everything is connected to two post-soviet shitholes killing each other.
>>728360194Hornet is the poster plane.Su-57 is a given since it's the enemy plane.
>>728359891To be fair the blame is on PA themselves for making the game based around the meme in the first place. Especially so soon. Might as well make AC game about Asroel bombing Zaga strip and then wondering why it attracted /pol/fags and twitter trannies.
>>728360259>H-HOW DID YOU POSSIBLY CONCLUDE KYIV AND THEVE ARE CONNECTED?>They fucking rhyme, retard>S-SCHIZO MEDS
>>728348578all the nons in the trailer killed my hype for itand the alt girl will probably cuck the MC just like Nagase
>>728348578No woke go broke Simple as
>>728360251
>>728356124/Thread
>>728360323Explain how Theeve and Kyiv rhyme because their pronounciation is nothing alike. If you don't, I will accept your concession.
>N*rth Osean posters in the thread
>>728360376It's legitimately mostly people who didn't play any of the previous games, they probably don't even know who Keith is
>>728360376The worst thing is most of these aren't even serious about it, they just don't want to have an honest conversation and want to troll to drive engagement like it's Twitter.
The reason Osean didn't join this war is because they elected an "Osea first" president.
>>728360485Only a third world brownoid baiting for (you)s could possibly conclude Kyiv (Keeve) and Theve (Theeve) do not rhyme. I am sorry your thick Indian accent is stumbling and pronouncing it literally as Kyiv (kuhyiv).
>>728360376the dyed hair girl should have longer black roots to show the dye was done pre war. that is my only complaint. did she dye her hair on the ship? that's stupid.
>>728360485Just go to google translate and type kyiv and then theeve and then you can seethe (see what I did there?)
>>728360616he's probably pronouncing it like chicken kiev lmao
>>728355712I fine with those segment as long as you can skip it like you can skip land and take off sections
The Ghost of Theeve subplot was funny when it happened IRL so I like that they're using it here.
>>728360550>rude stupid nigger>becomes your best bro and sacrifices himself for youNow that's kino writing.
>>728360485Not everything needs to relate to the real world nigga, we have 1.5 minutes of information on the game so far. You focus on the one thing you noooticed and ignore everything that doesn't. Like how Ukraine isn't a fucking aircraft carries for example.
>>728360376>STOP NOTICING GOYlol
>>728360923How do you know ukraine isnt about to set sail into the black sea right now?
>>728348578>biggest announcement of the year>little to no reception on every popular streamer or game critic out there
>>728360616I have never heard anyone say Kyiv as Keeve. Even with the change of the name, I have heard both english speakers and russian/ukrainians say Kyiv as Khief which is exactly the same as it's old pronounciation but since you wanna run mental gymnastics on two post soviet shitholes killing each other on who is the more right and just one, please show me how to pronounce Kyiv. Khief and Theeve sound nothing alike, you fucktard.

>>728360994AC should have died with 7, now it's gonna die with pozz.
>>728360980I don't know, but if it does then it will return to port under it's own power.
>>728361028why are you so invested in denying what's right in front of you on full display?
>>728361028>I have never heard anyone say Kyiv as Keeve.Because that's the Ukrainian pronunciation. The one you heard prior to the war, kee-yev, is the Russian pronunciation. They even spell it different, Kiev instead of Kyiv.Where the fuck did you get Khief from?
>>728358571>JASDFDoes that meme air force even count? Those nips haven't been in a war for 80 years and they lost that one too.
>>728360616I agree with you otherwise, but they don't "rhyme". Unless Wikipedia is lying to me, it's pronounced kJjiu̯ (you can find the audio file if you want). In Japanese they're キーウ (as similar to kJjiu̯ as possible) and Theve is シーブ, which don't rhyme, but they're both similar three mora words.
It's funny because I was drunk as shit watching game awards for the Creative Assembly announcement but that 40k game looked mid as hell so I was pretty disappointed and then the next trailer name dropped Usea and I sobered up instantly.

>>728359793what's the significance?
>>728348578Alright niggers which AC should I play/? Name any, I don't care if I've already played it or not.
>>728364043you can do the PS1 trilogy which is Air Combat, Ace Combat 2 and the JAPANESE Version of Ace Combat 3.You can do the PS2 trilogy which is 04, 5 and Zero (with X as well, Joint Assault if you want real world)You can start with 7 but while it's "newcomer" friendly you will miss out on a lot of call backs and call forwards to everything.Really you should play them all including the remake of Ace Combat 2 on the 3DS titles Ace Combat: Assault Horizon Legacy+
>>728364043animal crossing new horizons
>>728364043Play 6.
>>728363941SU-57 is a russian plane. callsign shadow 22 refers to the invasion started in 2022. and the shadow part is an allusion to the "special military operation" bit.

>>728348578>What’s going on /v/?Look at the thread. You have irony poisoned faggots who are desperate to shit on anything and thinking any optimism is cringe.
>>728364269damn it's been that long since the invasion? nice yeah I agree it makes sense

>>728348578no gameplay
>>728364930Now with more ugly brown sheboons, trannies and current year politics, that'll be 80 shekels gaijin.
>>728348578Should I play these games chronologically if I wanna get into them ?
>>728368870Not necessarily , only 5 and 0
>>728368870As the other guy says, only 5 and Zero are really part of the same overarching story, though Zero is a prequel to 5 that released after.Technically 04 precedes 7, but only in the sense that you better understand the main enemy by playing it.
>Unreal Engine 5 I won't be able to run it. Tried some game where you have to get a camping van to it's destination that looks like Unturned but a bit more spherical. It was actually unplayable. I don't understand how you make the engine this unoptimized.
>only 1 SP.W at a time>only one fictional superplane>allied wingman can't do any damage>nagase: "blaze." = ????: "rex.">we haven't found out what this game's "dance with angels" "stick with trigger" meme is yet>we're playing as the fucking eruseans>princess is a cripple waifu nowthis series is never gonna top Project Wingman its so fucking over
>>728368870you should play them chronologically. the games iterate upon themselves and add/reduce features with each subsequent game and it makes no sense if you play them in random order. like as an example 04 and 5 are very similar games in gameplay but 5 removed return lines so you gotta readjust your entire approach to the missions. if you play 5 first then 4 you can get raped by bad habits of conserving ammo when in 4 you can just fly back and rearm in almost every mission.
>>728348578>biggest announcementAce Combat fans are delusional. No one cares about this franchise. Grow up and play real flight sims or fuck off.
>>728348578I feel it will be worse than AC7 and Project Wingman
>>7283640436. The answer is always 6 because it is by far the best one.
>>728369758That sure is a lot of assumptions.
>>728364871None, which is the point. Embarrassing that you need it to be baby mode.
>>728364616based theory crafting. honestly might as well since pulling highlights away from America always makes them prissy. The fact is the next gen Russian and Chinese fighters have always looked cooler.

>>7283485787 kind of sucked balls and this looks even worse. Like a lot worse.
>>728370636I do both. Ace Combat offers nothing.
>>728370716No they aren't. People who play MSFS, DCS, and IL-2 are. Ace Combat is weeb tranny shit for people not competent enough to do the real thing.
i'm > 728358751>>728359452>>728360171you guys are actually retarded. i've waited long enough, i won. gib $1000fucking retarded n******
I love AC7, but the newfags it attracted are insufferable
>>728370716The real blessing is that there’s very few of us compared to other games.
In hindsight, AC7's campaign has maybe 4 or 5 missions that are fun and the rest are the same kind of awful gimmick/stealth missions that ruined a lot of AC5 too. And the story took some disappointing turns when it would have been far better to keep you as part of the prison squad the whole game.
I know AC7 had a multiplayer mode is that more of the focus or is it more single player with an options PVP side thing?
>>728371383>Spend the day flying>go home, open computer, spend rest of the evening pretending to flyA level of retard redundancy worthy of a Kraut.
>>728371460>for people not competent enough to do the real thing>says the moron shilling for VIDEO GAMES and not the real thinglmfao
>>728348578Are you really surprised that /v/ doesn't talk about vidya at this point
>>728371951AC7's multiplayer was a total afterthought and died instantly. Less fun missile spam nonsense than playing as jets in Battlefield games too.
>>728372080you forgot>finish pretending to fly via simulator>open up /v/ and start arguing over simulatorsthe guy is really dedicated
>>728372358That's good I'd much rather a single player focus. I am curious to if AC8 will have it too.
>>728371460start a DCS thread then. you don't need to piggyback on this inferior dogshit arcade series you hate.
>>728357148>>728357161>>728357356>>728358464>they're taking in everyone as long as they can fly fighter jetsThe overwhelming majority of people who can fly a jet learn to do so in the(an) army, an organization where conformity and obedience are paramount values, so it's odd that someone so clearly non conforming would know how to fly anything.>>728357213I think trans people can join the military in real life in any place where being trans isn't effectively illegal, but they are subject to the same rules as everybody else.In the US for example no member of the army could have hair like that, regardless of their gender and sexual orientation.

>>728360194Doubt there'll be much change compared to AC7 when it comes to the real life planes, I mean it even has the gripen. If they add stuff it'll be in the fantasy futuristic plane category because I doubt they'll add Chinese planes.

>>728370716AC8 isn't being made for old AC fans, it's being made for the broader modern audience, get comfortable with faggots and trannies taking over.
>>728357090>>728357148Apparently the kessler syndrome from AC7 created so much chaos that many countries and many organizations are collapsing, so they are scrambling for any bodies they could get.

>>728373927Anyone supporting Russia shoupd be required to purchase my apartment in Krasnodar for rhe price it was worth before Putin decided to go full faggot.
>>728374165Nta but the game looks like blatant westernized crap on the trailers alone, don’t need to spend $70 day one for my brain to properly recognize the patterns my eyes see
>>728348578Im disappointed its not more sci-fi. The ending of 7 was hype because it was about space, the series is hype because its heading towards AC3, the poster jet should have been the 6th gen Japanese fighter. This feels like an AC0 style side release that should have come out 1 or two years after 7.
>>728374321It’s ok pal Zelensky will figure it all out this time partner, just keep donating kek
>>728374121AC8 is for tourists albeit, should have gatekept harder lmao.
i just want more cool plane games man not politics
>>7283495672 was remade into ace combat 3d cross rumble, and it's one of the few remakes that is straight up better than the original, even in terms of soundtrack.https://youtu.be/t6Nfk_CNcq0
>>728374321he should pay my x5 price increase in heating last few years too. or maybe zelensky should pay for that after rejecting another peace deal.
>>728374657>even in terms of soundtrack.Debatable, but in the sense it could be personal taste. AC 2 soundtrack is really groovy and arcadey which is a neat vibe.
>>728348883>>728368240The shitty insert song in the 5 trailer sours it but still, it's a much better trailer than the 8 one. AC trailers are great all around but 8's makes me feel nothing beyond "cool, a new AC game".That said the reveal trailer for 7 was laughably shit whereas the later extended trailer is one of the best the series has gotten so hopefully the same will happen with 8.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zuBSUJfpBkhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KQCDj3emnHk
>>728374396Krasnodar is in Russia, not Ukraine, you idiot.
>>728348689can you control the camera in the cockpit independent of flight direction without being snapped back to the forward direction of travel? If not, then it's shit. Project Wingman made the best Ace Combat game.
>>728375249>without being snapped back to the forward direction of travel?why would you want to disable this feature? it's really useful to center camera back to forward position. besides most of the time you hold target switch button to focus camera on target instead of using stick to control camera.
>>728374321>t. Mykola Tarasovich from Warsaw, Poland
You're conscripted into the FCU for your remarkable ability to fly high tech jet fighter planes under stress.What are your callsign and your gimmick?
>>728375004>hopefully the same will happen with 8not likely, the AC7 announcement trailer was released 3 or 4 years before 7 launched, I don't even think the game existed at that point, the way the planes fly look like a fake previs animation. AC8 is very close to launch.
>>728375392Because it's retarded and fucks with the sense of flight. I also use it to keep track of fighters behind me and ground targets below me when I'm lining up my runs.
>>728375004I think part of why AC7 sold so well is the trailers were intriguing even to people who aren't autistic plane fuckers. So far AC 8 looks a little too similar to top gun for normal people to give a shit, It's a shame the trailer wasn't better because there were alot of people watching the game awards.

>>728376643Announcing AC8 in current year was a mistake, should have waited a decade or more for the DEI/ESG cancer to die out.
>>728357090The actual answer is that she's a civvie turned pilot like half the cast in 8 is going to be because the ship is full of refugees. We're Mobile Suit Gundam now.

>>728376671Seethe loser. Expedition 33 is literal art where as this game is melodramatic flight sim with dogshit dialogue that takes itself way too seriously.

>>728378894debra? that would be hilarious.
>>728378894Forgot pic
>>728378894Pretty sure she's the commander of the carrier. Though this doesn't really look like her, so many they didn't scan her for this one.I don't really have a problem with her voice by itself, so it's not bothering me much.
>>728378894That way you know there's SBI cancer in AC8.
>>728378562OSEA is a combination of japan and America and there have always been white, black and asian pilots from that region.The image that was posted was cherry picked where almost all the characters on the left are from a nationalistic western european analogy while the brown tomboy is from the american analogy.
>>728379069>Though this doesn't really look like her, so many they didn't scan her for this one.>I don't really have a problem with her voice by itselfThis. She's fine as a VA, what's shit is her having a bunch of roles with the same bug-eyed face in different games.

>>728379169>reddit spacinggood morning saar
>>728379069The issue with Debra was always just related to her being face scanned in and that doesn't seem to be the case here so it should be fine. Voice work wise she is honestly quite fine and it is always stated she loves to work and is always very easy to work with so of course she would get work because of that.
>>728378894>>728379069>every triple A gaym this ugly bitch is in turns into a flopkekaroo
Is Ace Combat known for having bittersweet endings?How many of the main characters in this game will die?
>>728379069Yeah, I got that impression from the trailer too. Looks fairly close to her at any rate, but I doubt they mocapped this game since they didn't with 7 either
>>728379832Pretty sure only Zero and 04 have sort of bittersweet endings
>>728379832in 5 and 0 you lost one wingman, but then 7 had most of spare squadron get killed off along with wiseman, so it's hard to saythem putting more emphasis on the characters doesn't bode well for their survival chances though
>>728369723Arc Raiders runs on fucking toasters so it's 100% on the devs being retards who don't know how to optimize shit
>>728380063The trailers for 7 made it seem like the girl who built the junk plane would be a more important character, as well as the story being entirely about Spare Squadron. Turns out all of that wasn't true.I would actually love it if 8 follows through on the promise of this trailer though. I want the whole game to be set with the carrier as your base, and even better if you can upgrade it and have side missions where you have to defend the fleet. A Battlestar Galactica feel would be peak.
>>728379948>>728380063I'd argue 3 has the darkest ending, considering it's a mad scientist releasing into a world an AI trained to wage war all for the sake of ensuring a particular person dies.
>>728348578Don't kid yourself faggot. Top gun is a gay movie btw
>>728380119>Lumen: On>Nanite: On
>>728379832Not reallyProject Wingman however tried to retify this so hard with its ending your face will feel like it tried to eat a lemon so Sector D2 did a bit of damage control after release so it isn't a complete doomer ending
>>728380487>your face will feel like it tried to eat a lemon>lemonYou had one job, and it was ORANGE and you failed.
>>728380487>Sector D2 did a bit of damage control after release so it isn't a complete doomer endingWhat? The game didn't get updated to have an extended ending or anything and the DLC didn't deal with it at all. Did they just post on social media that [characters] survived?
>>728380273i started replaying 7 and completely forgot about the the junkyard plane plot, i'll probably just skip those cutscenes this timeits why i dont trust the trailer for 8, it "looks" cool but it might be another bait and switch with a disjointed plot
>>728380487>20 missions with a mediocre but charming cast of characters>all of them fucking die at the end and you have to face the murderer of themyeah i can see why people would pissy about this
>>728380273>I want the whole game to be set with the carrier as your baseMy personal thoughts it that it will be. I think Project Aces took some of the feedback from AC7, one piece being that things feel too disjointed because Trigger jumps from squad to squad, and are pretty much nailing Rex down into one location with his set squadmates and crew members from the get-go.
>>728380414Bittersweet isn't really the same as "darkest" though. In 04 you win, but Yellow 13's tragedy is apparent. In Zero, you stop the nuclear terror plot, a lot of people's lives are ruined or fundamentally changed, PTSD and all that, and Pixy feels like he has a hard time seeing the point, but he's still trying.In contrast, 5 is just a pure hopium ending, as is 7Aside from 3, I'd say that PW is the only one that's downright dark in the sense that it frames it as a tragedy that the war could even be brought to that point.
>>728376845Thank you. Finally someone paying attention.
>>728380712>Did they just post on social media that [characters] survived?I think that is exactly what they did.
>>728380712If I recall the mercenary ending has some of your dudes surviving but the whole ring of fire is still going apeshit with a second calamity anyway
>>728380739At least with 7, the junkyard plane plot was something that was actually scrapped mid-development when they shifted from prisoners to LRSSG, just kind of sown together
>>728376845I can honestly see the ending being very similar to 079 with the Endurance going down and Rex possibly having to bail out after finishing his objective. The ending will be Rex underwater having some kind of spiritual moment with the previous Wings of Theve before the crew pull him out of the water revealing all of the crew survived.
>>728376259>Left>Casca brown chick>Hafu blonde chick>Scandiasian science dude>Straight-up Asian chick>Old guy (disabled)It's really not that big of a change.
>>728381032I would've been fine with it if the game actually addressed things but you get the final mission against Crimson One and that's it, you never even find out if anyone else survived or not, it just abruptly ends with no closure.
>>728381247but that wasn't known until the final product came out
>>728381247They shouldn't have done that, and they still kept the trailers showing otherwise.
>>728380273I don't think the WHOLE game is set on the ship, because this shot in the trailer definitely has an air base
>>728381471AC7 was quite literally a clusterfuck during development. The game got rebooted like 3 times during development. It should be interesting to see how 8 turns out because 7's success at least solidified the franchise again for Bamco to give Project Aces the time they want.
>>728348578I thought they had the Project Wingman team working on this for a second when I saw that Project ACES logo. It looks like the /agdg/ logo, and it wasn't on screen long enough for me to realize it wasn't.
>>728381661Kono said in the Famitsu interview that 8 has been in development since 2020 so that's already a bad sign because it's another game in six years of active development, and if the fake Wings of Thieve are meant to be referencing the Ghost of Kyiv rather than it being a funny coincidence that would indicate another mid-development change of direction.
>>728382179Development length alone doesn't really indicate much in my opinion. Though they probably did pick up a bunch of ideas with the invasion happening in the middle of it.

Why does the AClike protagonist never get to be deployed from the flying carrier?
>>728360171>>728360616its pronounced Ky-yiv because letter ї is like yyi and its hard to write it with English letters because English has no sound like that. Russian has an issue with it too so they call it Kiev in which they substitute it for another sound. Kyiv is not keev or keeve. its Київ. no one would understand what you're talking about if you said keeve
>>728361523keeve is not Ukrainian or any others pronunciation. >>728386283t. Ukrainian.
>>728386283>english has no sound like thatit's the same sound as the y in yes

>>728373838>kessler syndromeif that had happened satellites and consequently flying jets would be all pointless
I don't want the flight model to be "realistic" and I still think you should be able to pull 25g and accelerate straight up, but I do think it should be a bit more physics-based, like AC3 with smoother controls. The on-rails flight model isn't fun as it could be.
>>728386538it really isn't.its like y hard, like й, switching to ilike y.yi or something.letters like Й Ї Ы is where all English speakers have issues.
>>728386034Because flying carriers and other whacky superweapons are only used by evil chud nations that oppose the player (just ignore Osea building space lasers and Arsenal Birds, goy)
>>728386846You make a good case for making a villain protagonist game where you ARE the Belkan bastard

>>728387443well its not that far off but English language has trouble with hard cut sounds like that.its literally something no one knows properly because its not a thing that they ever tried saying.English is a very "soft" language.

>>728374657>one of the few remakes that is straight up better than the originalhaving played it a couple months ago for the first time, I didn't think it came even close to AC2. Why did everything feel so slow? Why did they keep an 'I win' button from Assault Horizon? Much as I like Kobayashi-era AC music, I'd never want to lose the great guitar tracks from the original for it.Plus, Dynapolis and the whole city attack mission that it played it was so much better than the equivalent in the remake which was over in five minutes and I didn't even realise it was supposed to be the same mission.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iE_n714gfiAhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5uPVGs7bq3s

>>728389068We don't know for sure, according to 3rd party material, after AC7 they get pounded by sanctions from the NUN and kinda die off.>>728389465Almost certainly, 7 already started moving the pieces in the background, GR plays a role in the DLC and the EASA eventually turns in Neucom.

>>728390160F-35 because it's actually real. SU-57 is essentially fictional and Russia can't afford to make them. The few they have made are total failures and can't compete with any of America's fighters.
>>728358598>what he meant is that .jpg dog is actually a .png
>>728389994I thought it was theorised that Grunder was bought out by GR after going under because they wanted their technology, more importantly the ADF fighter line, so that they could develop COFFIN from that. Does it make any sense?
>>728386969In AC0 you are are psycho mercenary.
7 was not great, not expecting much from this. maybe the multiplayer will be cool
>>7283894207 is good but it has a ton of throw backs to the previous games so I feel like you'd be only getting about 50% of the experienceYou can easily emulate 1,2(PS1 or 3DS),3JP,04,5,Zero, and X6 is great but might be hard to emulate.Most people do the PS2 trilogy which is 04,5 and Zero.7 specifically hard references 5 and 3
>>728389490aircraft uses INS inertial navigation systems. GPS is for correlating because ins gets drift over long enough time.
>>728390793Personal headcanon speculation, but to me it seems like GR will get COFFIN from EASA scientists that were working on ADF-11, since AC7 mentions Martha (mistranslated as Massa lmao) working in EASA with Schoredinger back then.
>>728389465I got filtered by ac3 story, I didn't enjoy AC3 gameplay
>>728349284Play 3 with the translation patch, it takes place after 7 and 8 will probably lead into it since 7 kinda kick started the whole mess strengereal will be in for the corpos to take over every thing
>>728391321>I didn't enjoy AC3 gameplayA shame, it's actually great once you adjust to the physics but it's not for everyone
>>728390793It is possible, though it's just theories at this point since there isn't anything to point at definitively>State authorities will conduct background checks on approximately 60,000 employees of Grander and its affiliated companies over a two-year period, and a priority reemployment support program will be implemented for these employees. Several foreign capitals have expressed interest in acquiring individual or divisional units in an effort to acquire talented engineers.
>>728376845>nowWe have been gundam since AC2The whole plot of the whole series is UC gundam but with planes instead of mechs
>>728348578>no obvious femoid on the coverokay, might be kino
>>728390771it's actually 'RIP dog'
>>7283894207 is a good starting point. It's really not needed to play the other games to understand what's going on in it. There are some big callbacks, mostly to 4 and some to 5 but it's the kind of thing where if you've played those games you'll enjoy the callbacks, but it's really not like you need to understand the callbacks to understand the story. Also consensus seems to be that the story is slightly disjointed. This becomes really clear about 2/3rds of the way through the game, where it seems like there's a timeskip and it's not quite explained how certain characters got where they are. Game had development hell and a story reboot.Although I personally don't think it's as disjointed as people say.Point is, if you get to a point about 2/3rds of the way in where the story seems like it skipped a beat, it's not because you need more context from the other games. 7 is a good place to start. So is 4.
>extra SP weapon slot>airships designed to land on waterTotal Cascadian victory
>>728391647no one's started the literal apocalypse over projection yet so Cascadia is still worse off than Strangereal
>>728391723*nukes you're home*
>>728391459it just feels slow and floaty...
>>728391894
>>728391937yeah it's almost as if you're piloting a 10 ton vehiclebringing back ac3 physics is my dream for the new game but I know it will never happen
>>728391647>airships designed to land on waterPretty sure Aigaion was designed as seaplane, it just wasn't shown in actual gameplay.
>>728391004>7 specifically hard references 5 and 3Hello??Stonehenge??
>>728392203Who-hendge? Continental what?
>>728376425>So far AC 8 looks a little too similar to top gun for normal people to give a shit,And are you implying normal people will give a shit if it was full-on DCS autism?
>>728392203Yeah, as far as things go it's 4>5>>3 when it comes to references.
>>728392121I love this monster>>728392117NTABut to me 3 feels off because there isn't much simulation of gravity and wind. It feels slow to turn and control your plane, which is probably realistic on some level, but gravity doesn't pull you down fast enough imo, and there isn't any air current simulation, which you get in 6 and 7, and a bit of in the PS2 games. Also, while I imagine less responsive controls are probably realistic, I think the experience of falling at a high velocity, or diving + acceleration from the engines, you probably get a pretty terrifying experience of speed in a real plane, which ACE3 also doesn't quite have either. But I do get it. Physics in 7 were really funny at points, especially with some of the mods you could add to high end planes, where you could pretty much just ignore gravity.
>>728391004>and 3ELECTROSPHERE? REALLY?!FUUUCK I HAVE TO PLAY AC7 NOW I FUCKING LOVED AC3
>>728392936well it was only a ps1. obviously they could do all that other fancy shit now, while keeping the heavy feeling
this looks overly cinematicalso> another japanese story where the mc impersonates someone else who dieddo they have no other traditional story to adapt other than this?>>7283894206 dollars is a stealstart with 4always start with 4
>>728392447That Megalith tease with the cursor during one of the late game mission briefings
>>728348578AC7 was boring slop.>no memorable characters>dull music>story was completely mediocre, jumps all around the place>no overarching plotline to drag you along and make you care>random tomboy mechanic who doesn't matter
>>728393045It's a pretty clear lead-in to 3's setting. AI features heavily in the plot. Also, pay attention to whether or not your enemy pilots are human in some early missions: there's some pretty neat things the story does which people overlook
>>728393295What kind of person do you have to be to think or post this?
>>728393369mehe's right
>>728391640lol. 7 is a great game but the story is arguably worse than 6. It’s not that it’s disjointed, it’s just really bad and every character sucks 3 and 4 had the best stories and 5 and 0 were at least very memorable
>>728393369Someone disappointed in AC7.Also:>scripted boss fights>no sense of drama anywhere>the retarded princess character who doesn't add anything to the story
>>728348883THAT PAIN YOU GAVE TO ME-HEEY
>>728393369He’s right though. AC7 has some solid mission design but you need to play the DLC to even find one character that isn’t dogwater.
People aren't going to like to hear this, but Ace Combat 7's story is an IQ filter.
>>728393295>no memorable characters
>>728393713yeah if you like it you're a fucking retard
>>728393478>the retarded princess character who doesn't add anything to the storyShe adds being cute.
>>728393750You can't even summarize what happened.
>>728393295>dull musicYou a gay nigga.
>>728393823and this is somehow my fault and not the game's fault
>>728393875I can't remember a single track from the game. Not a single track made me feel anything, hyped, worried, involved or otherwise. None of the songs dragged me into the game to feel involved.Just dull. Entirely dull.
>>728393297Fuck man I wish I didn't open the spoiler.I played the games in release order and was puzzled why the elite red jets in Ace Combat 2 were described as being AI even though it's never mentioned ingame at all. Then I discovered that Assault Horizon is a remake of AC2 and adds more context and the Strangereal setting.I finished AC0 years ago but never continued. Was going to resume yesterday after the TGA reveal with AC6 but realized that ACX is actually next and I'm lazy to figure out PSP emulation.
>>728358751It's just them being pretentious. Theve as from old english thevethorn, meaning Burning Thorn. The title is just Burning Wings, which plays back both into the ace pilot dying and you getting handed his helmet that has a decal of red wings on it.
>>728393982Name an AC4 track that isn’t Camona or Agnus DeiName an AC5 track that isn’t Unsung WarName an AC0 track that isn’t Valley of Kings or ZeroThis entire fucking series is nothing but okay tracks and then le latin chanting meme that everyone goes nuts over. 7 is no different with Daredevil
>>728393982You a gay nigga, nothing makes you feel anything besides a dick in yo ass.

>>728393885Yes it is your fault. If you were capable of understanding it you'd realize it's pretty damn great story.
>>728393461>7 is a great gameMehhhh, I'd rate it as one of the weaker entries. Too many gimmick missions that are just no fun. Also mission structure feels so much smaller and less involved. Especially after AC6 that had some massive engagements with multiple objectives and allied support.
>>728394564it's presented badly. I don't care if it's good. hope this helps
>>728394029Don't sweat the spoiler too much. Just keep your eyes open. I am a defender of Ace Combat 7's story. It's a lot smarter and more interesting than people think it is.
>>728393982you sound like you might be seriously depressed. I don't even say that as an insult, but the fact that NOTHING made you feel anything suggests something deeper on your end.As for me, I loved the majority of the score.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=onv6lavhkyAhttps://youtu.be/cuS-mzZCKuMhttps://youtu.be/qDuvxUdbqaM
>>728393295The game even outright goes out of its way to make sure you don't care.>player character is a random prisoner>friendly pilots are nobodies who you have no friendship with>nothing that happens in the game holds any personal meaning for you or the characters around youThe story is as exciting as clocking in to a 9-to-5. There's no hook for the player to feel involved and interested.
>>728348578You have to admit, no matter how much of an Ace Combat superfan you are, it's a really fucking stupid name. It's like a lispy gay guy trying to say Steve. Wings of Steve. Fuck.
>>728394656As I said, it's an IQ filter. If you think it's presented badly, at least some of that is on (You) and your failure to pay attention or care. I will agree it's not flawless, but the hate it gets is bizarre to me. Ace 7's story is a rough diamond.
>>728390160the one that exists
>>728394879No.
>>728394948me when I read the summary on a wiki page
>>728394798No, it's just boring. None of it matches the situation in the game, the tempo is completely off, none of it evokes any significant feelings in relation either to piloting, aerial combat or the game's current situation. Every track feels like they were independently written, completely detached from the game itself.
>>728394806Today, I will remind them.
>>728395039Or you couldyou knowHave a functioning brain
>>728394879Yeah, Theve doesn't really have any ring to it. Just sounds like some generic fantasy JRPG nobody ever played.
>>728395134Crimson 1 was 100% correct. The only reason a MAD scenario happened was because Monarch exists, because he's a living, flying superweapon and decides to whore out his power to the highest bidder; worse, he whores himself out to religious, genocidal lunatics who already starved the entirety of Oceania.Without Monarch, none of the calamities would have happened. The federation would never have been pushed to the brink of destruction without Monarch. He is literally the villain of the game. The first release version even had a boss health bar for Monarch himself to represent that.
>>728395142I just don't invest energy into deciphering japanese crap writing disjointed over 20 hours of cutscenes is all
>>728394879It's also the first one (I think?) to directly reference the name of a Strangereal location, which means it's already confusing to people who don't know how the AC universe works.they should've just called it something lofty and disconnected from a specific placeit's not like they called AC7 THREE STRIKES despite that being what Trigger's called in-game, they didn't need to call this one Wings of Theve just because that's what Rex's squad is.

>>728394798Siren's Song playing right after you get re-instated from the penal wing got me pretty good at the time. The tracks prior to it didn't feel like anything special, whereas that one felt like it finally remembered it's an Ace Combat title.
>>728394879CorrectThankfully I already refer to the games by their title "Ace Combat ×" without the subtitle so that's not an issue.
>>728395917It bugs the hell out of me that Siren's Song uses a lot of Sol Squadron motifs, but they aren't in the mission. I wonder if they were planned to show up here at some point. Maybe that'd be the first time Trigger manages to properly fight back against them. Maybe he'd have downed one the way Mobius 1 did to Yellow Squadron.
>>728395365You don't invest energy into deciphering much of anything.
>>728393713I don't remember anything about it, there was a brown tomboy, a penal unit, a princess, a pedo scientist and a bunch of AI drones and I have absolutely no idea what the point of any of it was. The tomboy was a nothing character, the penal unit uhh existed, the princess jumped off a building for some reason and the ai drones were some lame shit about human pilots being replaced. I think a bunch of copilot's died at some point but I didn't care or remember since they weren't developed at all. I'm sure the actual plot was about Belka doing something retarded again.
>>728396086Maybe they thought having Sol would be overkill with how much enemies there are in the mission already? Also>finally add Il-76>never use it in any other mission
>>728350458>Shattered HorizonsWhich one is that?
>>728394158Emancipation & Stonehenge theme Invincible Fleet, Hrimfaxi theme, Ice Cage. Glacial Skies, Juggernaut, B7R, Diapason, Contact, Merlon, the Excalibur theme during Merlon, Inferno, and Final Overture. ez pz. I sometimes listen to them while playing flight sims, and often when playing Civ V or building model kits.7 had some good tracks too though, that other guy is a fag. 444, Long Day, Pipeline Destruction, Stonehenge Defense, Farbanti, all versions of Sol's theme, Magic Spear and Lighthouse are pretty good. Lost Kingdom, Anchorhead Raid and the Alicorn's whole suite are top tier.
I don't like DEI as much as the next guy, but seeing /v/ chimp out at the sight of a nigger will never stop being funny.

>>728396482Heavy spoilers. Although this should be obvious if you're well read/paying attention the story. Ace 7 might genuinely be for the literati>Both sides using a Battlefield Management AI>The AI being trained directly by Mihaly, the most deadly ace of the previous war>Your Penal Unit squad members figuring out about the AI and its consequences>Total Information Blackout>the AI inheriting the aristocratic resentment and noble ambitions of Mihaly purely from his flight data>Aristocratic Plane Autism bringing the world together under Mihaly's noble will, but in such a way that' he's force to live out the rest of his days as a content old man instead of dying a war martyr
>>728398579in fairness the awful translation doesn't help matters, it's why a lot of people don't realise that Scrap Queen sacrificed her spot out of 444th and got sent to Tyler Island so Trigger could get out instead, and she did it because Trigger's ability to survive in the rear guard helped her get over her father's death
>>728392379No, I'm saying people, especially zoomer gamers and weebs are drawn to the sci-fi anime shit, not so much the boomer military and plane wank
>>728398847Idk. There might be translation problems, but I think the spirit of the game gets through. If you're able to see it. Didn't even touch on the Penal Unit 444 squad themes. Honestly the game is basically a masterpiece, except for the obvious places where the story was cut/rearranged. Although it does seem to fly over most people's heads.
