how is Project Wingman?
>>739214227you forgot 0 re-release (maybe)
>>739215690passable
Don't forget Infinity 2.https://steamdb.info/app/2288340/history/?changeid=33560250
>>739215982EXCUSE ME>ACE COMBAT ZERO>acz.exeIS ZERO GETTING AN OFFICIAL PC PORT?HELLO?
>>739216451Oh yeah that too.
Is that AC0 PC port still happening?
>>739214227>usa propaganda seriesHOOLY KINOOO NATO SHITURDS!!
>>739214227>>ACE COMBAT INFINITY REVIVALthis is not a good thing
>>739218062you're thinking about HAWX son
>>739218062You're thinking of Assault Horizon, the most hated in the series
why would you port this crap to the platform that has actual flight sims?
>>739218062Yeah, the NATO propaganda of Russian planes being anything other than shit
>>739218697The planes are fine, the people operating them are not
>>739218647because only troons play flight sims
>>739218647flight sims are for people without a PPL
>>739218062NATO won babe, soory not srry
>>739218062but the Sukhois are some of the most overpowered planes in the series.Also the Raphael (the quintesential NATO plane) is absolute shite
>>739219227(me)Rafale*the fucking auto correct thought I was talking about the Ninja Turtle for some reason
>>739219227For me it's the Su-47...
>>739218617>the most hated in the seriesno, that's Joint Assault
>>739218647Is there any reason why there isn't room for both?
>>739219227Rafale is the director's favorite plane.
AV-8B!
>>739220457Free points in every mission it appears in
>>739219458didn't beat
>>739219227I hope the sughoi becomes a hero plane again
>>739219227>the quintesential NATO planeThat would be the F-35.
>>739221661The Rafale was designed during the cold war as a superiority fighter against Warsaw planes.The F-35 is Lockheed Martin's proposed money laundering scheme.So it's a toss up on which is more 'NATO'
>>739221902>Rafale Operators>Indonesia, India, Croatia, Greece, United Arab Emirates and FranceNah, the F-35 is definitely more NATO.
>>739222109>Rafale uses>Invasion of Afghanistan as a revenge fo 9-11>the only time Article 5 of NATO was invoked>F35 Operations>Israel bombing a bunch of 3rd world islamic countriesnote: Israel in sot part of NATO
>>739221661>>739221902>Turkey is part of the JSF Program putting money towards it>makes the retarded decision to buy S-300s>gets bannedno refunds
>>739222426The>Invasion of Afghanistanis a part of>bombing a bunch of 3rd world islamic countries
>>739222541one was NATO sanctioned, the other is just a flex.They are not the same
>>739221661Canada doesn't have F35's, they never purchased them. And now they're backing out of it and talking about getting Gripens instead. As of now they still operate the CF-18's.
>>739222739>>739222426If you gotta use the argument of operational history, then the F-16 would be the "NATO jet", since it was also used in Afghanistan and has plenty more NATO operators than the Rafale.The F-35 is pretty new and will probably be used in plenty more NATO operations in the future.Either way the Rafale is not the quintessential NATO plane.
>>739215690Punches above its weight for a passion project by a handful of devs. Still very much an indie game though. Ace Combat games aren't deep but they do have amazing polish.
>>739223241out of curiosity I had to look it up since I knew F-16's prominence in NATO is an American wank.Turns out I was wrong as well, most of NATO is still using the Typhoon.
>>739215690Had more fun with it than AC7Mostly because PW has good m+kb controlsEven more specifically, because you can use the mouse to freelook around instead of shittily emulating a joystick for steering the planeAlso helps that the guns are really good in PW and the super plane is pure bullshit.Also, the lmAOA, more plane games need a ufo maneuver button
>>739223596>the plane NATO uses is the one made by the "NATO Multirole Combat Aircraft Development and Production Management Agency"YOU DON'T FUCKING SAY?
>>739218426Kys shitskin nigger
>>739215690It has VR and stick support so it's amazing
>>739215690Writer dev went off the deep end after getting his cock sucked too hard (he had the least amount of work compared to the composer and programmer yet claims all the fame was thanks to him)Game itself is neat, but its abandoned because of the writer being so egotistical
>>739219227>RafaleGET PAKI'D
>>739221661>''''we'''' have 100 of these fucking things>Only time we hear about them is when the media is saying they're unreliable pieces of shit that need constant repair, also they cost 100 billion fucking dollars and need to retain permanent US advisors and specialists to planewhisper like they're fucking shitty horses
>>739215690
I really loved all those SU planes...
>>739224091Enjoy your fuel gacha, bugskin
>>739215690Still waiting for the promised conquest update.
>>739224603>Still waitingI'm so sorry
>>739215690A boring clone with a story that manages to be worse than AC6.
>yuropoor planes out of nowhere
>>739215690Good Game Great Game if they polished it more instead of working in other unrelated stuff
>>739225127You don't understand. It was absolutely vital they dropped everything to work on a then PSVR exclusive DLC for the 5 people who owned one.
huxian
Star Fox fan here.Give me one reason why I should waste my time on these games.
I feel like I'm the only person in the world who would really like a semi-sim flying game (War Thunder, Nuclear Option, VTOL VR, etc) set in a world like Ace Combat or Project Wingman with sci-fi elements. I want to do an IFR landing on an aerial aircraft carrier with realistic-ish physics
>>739225376lmao star fox is on rails slop for children. in AC you control the buttons you press.
>>739225650Your games look like shit. Remind me which series is more beloved?
>>739225776Remind me which series has more games?
>>739225863Quality over quantity. :^)
>>739225921Shame star fox doesn't have either
>>739224487>vivziepop villain writinghe just needed more time in the oven
>>739224487>viziepop villain writingWhat the fuck do you have to fucking show for yourself, mercenary fuck? Blood and fuckin' gold? A broken fuckin' throne?
>games are short (except 3)>games are extremely easy>their gameplay revolves around just missile spam>even the bombing missions can usually be done with missiles and you're gimping yourself NOT taking missiles because enemy planes almost always show up anywaysDoes the gameplay get more depth to it later or is it always carried by the vibes and presentation?t. only played 1-3 so far
>>739227158I mean, if you've played any combat flight sim, every Ace Combat game is trivial even on the hardest difficulty.
>>739227158No its lock on missile spam from 1 to 7Shit games drop it and play something good.
>>739227061I'm with Crimson One. Nobody would wanna bang that backseater back silent protag or something
>>739224178Source?
>>739227975FlyAwayNow is just posting bullshit on his twitter account now like >>739224797 and turning increasingly pretentious after each year since Project Wingman came out and even more so with Frontline 59 being in PS5 and then PC
>>739215690Pretty fun.I liked that the total ordinance you could fire for any given weapon was determined by how many hardpoints were dedicated to it.>4 missile slots (2 options)>double up on standard missiles>can fire up to 4 standard missiles at once and carry 2x total payloadGets even more fun when you start getting into late game airframes and can stack 6 standard missiles on one frame and pop 3 enemy fighters in sequence if you line it up right.Honestly kinda wish this would be a thing in AC, but I also realize that'd probably fuck multiplayer balance.
>>739221661>>739222525>>739224385The F35 is one of the worst purchases a country could possibly take. The entire contract is a very explicit and deliberate deal where you agree to be Washington's little bitch or else they cuck you out of replacement parts or, if you're particularly naughty, remotely disable your jets, turning them into very expensive bricks.Meanwhile, if you go up to the Swedes, they'll agree to sell you their Gripens which are cheaper to cheaper, cheaper to operate and, if you say please, they'll teach you how to build them yourself. Of course, they still use parts from American companies so you can't be entirely naughty to the US, but you don't automatically become a US vassal by simply owning Gripens.You can't be entirely sovereign of fighter planes unless you can domestically produce engines, and the number of companies who can into that process is very, very, very tiny because aerospace engine manufacturing is one of the most advanced fields of science. It takes a great deal of sorcery in order to make engines that burn hotter than the melting point of the material of which they are made.
>>739214227Done with AC7Which one should I play next?
>>739215690Not bad, more of a /k/tism arcade game than normal AC is.Story's kinda all over the place, but the dialogue is pretty good.They took one of the radio sequences right out of a communication from the Rhodesian bush war and I'm pretty sure 90% of people actually playing don't even know that's what it is.
>>739216451>CONFIRMED REACTIVATION OF MISSILE SILOS>CONTINUE YOUR MISSION, ENGAGE>...>Here comes the snow...
>>739215690Better than ace combat in every form.
>>739228434Which have you played?Do 5, 0, then 4 if none.
>>739227158Another ww2 faggot bitching about missiles.Your kind already ruins any modern naval sim discussion, get the fuck out and go play ww2 stuff.
>>739215690unironically better than ace combat.i only stopped playing because towards the end of the conquest mode there are so many enemies on screen that the game runs at like 20fps (at least for me with a 3080)
>>739228434The PS2 ones. In release order.4 is good but missions are a bit boring if you do 5 or Zero before it5 is the most well balanced Ace Combat in terms of missions and pacing. So why not Zero before that one? Well, becauseZero, because it's got the best climax of the entire series, even if the overall story and missions are a bit mid compared to five. The finale more than makes up for it.
>DCSfag fucking died>Replaced with some faggot who goes "nah, i don't drink orange juice, i drink OJ XTREME, it's for cool kids, like me!" with project abandonedman every threadWeird.
>>739224591>implying that shit won't be modded outYou do realise it's a fan revival, right?
Alright, lets settle this.Which AC is best AC?
cute androgynous demonic shapeshifter
>>7392308265, no question>banger story>largest and most diverse plane selection>AC4 mini-sequel bundled in
>>739218062how to tell someone has never played Ace Combat the game
>>739214227>Be bad at video games>Always play hard mode anyway>Still haven't beaten the final mission of 7How long do I have?
>>739215690I unironically like it more. It's like the the more mature, schizophrenic version of any Ace Combat games.>tfw <<Crystal Kingdom denies your request>> I never dive bomb harder than any other game as soon as the game wanted me to commit war crimes.
>>739214227I didn't like the trailer for 8, the story is always a load of shit in these games but at least you are barely involved so I can pretend I'm a sentient jet that lives only for war.New trailer looks like they want to give a "cenimatic experience"
>>739214227>>739216451I've only ever played AC7. I love the gameplay but the story makes no sense to me.Is the gameplay as fun in Zero and is it worth catching up on the story, or is it really just servicable enough to drive the missions forward?Story in AC7 without context felt like pic related
>>739231304>HushA few months? Just do it man. It's just a matter of throwing missiles at the drones until they die.
What's the best level track and why is it zero?
>>739215690For me it crosses the line from homage to straight up plagiarizing the source material. While playing I just thought; "Man wish I was playing Zero right now" so I did.
>>739231304lolUse F22 and QAAM and win by attrition.The only thing that frustrated me on that mission was flying vertically through the space elevator.
>>739231397The worst part is that, if you spend enough time in those threads you become one of them.
>>739231397The story of 7 isn’t the best, but I’ve been replaying it recently and it’s not actually that bad. Of course, I’m familiar with the Ace Combat world, so many of the names and places mentioned weren’t unfamiliar to me
>>739231485>Count follows you into the tunnel to "help" >Gets damaged when the drone magically teleports behind you in a straight tunnel >Creates false tension after being useless during the final section (just like every wingman except Pixy)>[Spoiler]lives anywayCount is lame but I don't hate him
>>739231596Unless you regularly post new art or 'shops, then everyone gives you the "Henry's come to see us!" treatment and starts asking whether you died when you don't post for a week.
>>739231397>is it worth catching up on the storyTo understand 7? Not really but at least Zero is nice and simple. And yeah, the PS2 games are fun though 04 feels dated compared to the rest.
>>739231397Earlier games are a bit slower than 7 but that's arguably to their benefit, you have to be a little more deliberate in your movements and energy to not get caught up in constant circlesThat being said Zero probably has the best dogfights of the PS2 games and maybe the series, it's pretty great from beginning to endAnd as an added bonus to you it should explain some things about BelkaI would also highly recommend 4 and 5, 5 in particular because Zero is a prequel to it
>>739231645What did you expect from someone who used to inflate his kill report?But at least he’s improved as a person
>>739228035>FlyAwayNowI remember this guy now. He wrote a Halo/Mass Effect crossover fanfiction that had its head up its ass trying to depict the UNSC in an awful light while trying to make the Covenant more sympathetic. UNSC takes control of the Halos starts genociding every alien and Master Chief is too dumb to have emotions because he didn't team up with Cortana.
>>739215690It's fine. Feels cheaply made (because it is), but it's a good time.
>>739231645I'm still stealing Huxian from him, I don't CARE and I will hang out with Bandog also
>>739231839Bandog is literally the best awacs in the series, I much prefer is bitching to burgerlord promising dinners that will never come.
What are the chances that AC8 will let you pilot one of those giant fuckoff aerial warships?Infinity promised a playable AigaionJust picture it in co-op.
>>7392313977 had an extremely rough development and the story ended up being three separate pitches stitched awkwardly together. It also references a lot of events of previous games, mainly 4 and 5, so anyone that didn't play those games first will be confused. Earlier games aren't nearly as schizophrenic.
My objectively correct tier list. I spent the last 6 months playing almost every game in order of release for the first time. Sky Crawlers was also a C-Tier game.
>>739215690It's an unofficial Ace Combat fanfic game. Anyone who is a supposed enjoyer of Ace Combat that calls it "low effort" or "boring" has never actually played any Ace Combat game and only yaps about the games online, because Project Wingman is very simply a straight-up unashamed Ace Combat clone.Project Aces need to really do something fresh for Ace Combat 8 because a handful of random developers can match their whole team's output except for some cutscene and cinematic polish.
>>739231997He is, but I have a soft spot for Crux from X because he's basically the only other character with you for the entire game and he even develops a littleJust about everyone else is either Oka Nieba, a typical professional (All the -Eyes) or a useless asshole (Thunderhead), so it's easy to stand outI hope the AC8 AWACS is cool
Tell Project Aces to give us a dedicated WSO with some character like Prez and they'll sell a fucking gorillion copies
>>739232030I guess it's gonna be similar to how I played MGS4 first.
>>739232096Ace combat 2 in b tier while 7 in a+? Objectively retarded.
>>739228901>5 is the most well balanced Ace Combat in terms of missions and pacingYou're the first person I've seen to say this, AC5 has a ton of weird filler missions
>>739214227>ACE COMBAT 6 RECOMP FOR PCWake me up when issues are resolved
>>739232161Project wingman was more ace combat than ace combat 7 for me.
>>739228901>4 is good but missions are a bit boring if you do 5 or Zero before itAfter playing 5 i appreciate 4 a lot more. 5 's gimmicky missions suck compared to the arcade bliss of 4.>5 is the most well balanced Ace Combat in terms of missions and pacing5 has terrible pacing( city terrorists and the no combat escape). It is also terribly balanced in terms of just being able to blow shit up because the ammo is so stingy.>even if the overall story and missions are a bit mid compared to fiveZero missions are better than five, the problem is the stupid three rating system forcing you to replay the game three times with one of the path just being " blow some shit up but not much".
>>739224261Anon there was an indian in a cockpit. It said nothing about Rafale. It did say something about india how they have a billion people and even a figher pilot is an incompetent retard.
>>7392339755 gimmicky missions are very tolerable when compared to Ace combat gimmick
>>739234069So for those keeping score:Pakistani in a Chinese plane with Chinese missiles > Indian in a French plane with French missiles
>>739234117>5 gimmicky missions are very tolerableNot really, the point of ace combat a game sis to replay them. Waiting for a truck to move or following somebody very slowly makes them a chore to replay.>when compared to Ace combat gimmickI have no idea what you mean?
>>739228403Yeah, too bad Gripens are a joke in modern aviation warfare.
>>739234390>I have no idea what you mean?Which game is the game with only gimmick missions?
Someone's about to say something very stupid about a game with Fleet Destruction in it
>>739234407It's hard to tell. When was it the last time planes actually fought in equal footing? Does that question even have a meaning?Everyone knows BVR combat is about who can see the other first. For that purpose, it doesn't really matter what plane is in the air, if you have sufficient radar coverage, a cessna rigged with a missile is just as good as an F35.My point here is that the airframe is relatively of little importance compared to battlefield connectivity.Also, considering how every military in the world is currently hard at work developing new solutions for the unique problems we've seen in the Ukraine war conflict, I imagine that all sorts of anti-air technology will begin springing out in the coming 10~15 years. I wouldn't be spending big bux on planes right now.
>>739234421None?
>>7392353757
>>739235459Doesn't the game have at least 3 ac4 style "blow shit up until timer ends" missions?
>>739235564Yes. And the remaining 16 (mission 1 is a tutorial) are all gimmick trash. Not to mention first ac4 style of course has drones.
>>739215690very fun, it complements AC, not competes with it
>>739235459>Charge Assault>Charge the Enemy>Two-pronged Strategy>444>Long Day>Fleet Destruction>Stonehenge Defensive>Cape Rainy Assault>Battle of Farbanti>Lost Kingdom>Lighthouse>Dark Blue>Unexpected Visitor>Anchorhead Raid"Thing happens halfway through mission" isn't a gimmickEven gimmicky shit like tunnels and boss battles barely qualifies because of how ubiquitous it is in the series, suddenly it's not okay because it's less obnoxious than Final OptionYou're a fag and your shit's all retarded
>>739235831Go play AC zero to see what ace combat is about how a non-gimmick game looks like. AC7 was designed with zoomies in mind who can't find enjoyment in core gameplay and constantly need key jingling in their face. If AC8 is like that (and it probably is) then fuck this franchise for becoming another modern audience trash. Nu-ace combat is here.
>>739231397The AC plot is borderline schizophrenia on purpose, if you think 7 is bad you don't want to even know about 3.Though 7 is a specific brand of bad when it's technically a prequel of sorts while actually being a normal continuation of the plot.
>>739236293>3>schizophrenicThe entire game is Simon's revenge fantasy simulator.
>>739231397Wouldn't surprise me if it's all samefagging. /vt/ listed here is already bad as it is, now I can see that /v/ is much, much worse in that regard.
>>739236005>Latter half of Merlon>Sword of Annihilation>The Stage of Apocalypse>The Talon of Ruin>The Valley of Kings and Zero if for some stupid reason we want to throw tunnels and boss fights in thereHaving played every Ace Combat game to death, mission variety is actually a good thing if I want to replay an entire campaign instead of a few missions, and as gimmicky as 5 and as shit as the kill rate system is you're actually being rewarded for replaying the score attack missions (The Unsung War gives a better payout but Sea of Chaos is way more straightforward and less prone to accidents)How do you even land on Zero when 4 is even more basic and Project Wingman is even more basic than that7 has a good chunk of gimmick missions like Rescue and Last Hope but they're still the minority as long as you define gimmicks as actual gimmicks and not "I'm minorly inconvenienced"It's like complaining that fucking Mayhem is a gimmick mission because your score attack gets interrupted by Schwarze (the gimmick of Foxhounds)
>>7392365607 is only gimmick missions and you are dumb.
>>739236293>The AC plot is borderline schizophrenia on purposeIt's not told well but it's very easy to understand>if you think 7 is bad you don't want to even know about 3.Jesus Christ
>>739236651>>739236293I thought 3 was incredibly straightforward? What is confusing about it?
does it work with a HOTAS?
>>739236435>now I can see that /v/ is much, much worse in that regardNot only that but you can infinately bump threads with same-fagging now.sometims i start typing like a fagot and reply 2 myslef with a hot take get others to disagree with me
>>739236706reminder the english trannylation is an axe wounded fanfic with only one route and one ending
>>739236634I'm sorry your copy of 7 only had a third of the missions in it, sounds like a very strange bug>>739236706People either see the routes graph and piss themselves, fail at telegraphed forks in missions ("How was I supposed to know I didn't have to follow Dision to GRL?") or played the International version and get confused by discussion of the JP versionPeople just don't use their whole brain>>739236721Sure, but some sticks need mods IIRC, look up some guidesI'm sure /aceg/ could help out
>>739231397From personal experience, picrel boils down to:>Thread is fairly normal and people actually discuss the topic in peace for like 10-50 posts.>The local schizo shitting up the thread with random shitposts and/or doomfagging shows up.>People instantly zero in posting what to avoid confusion I will reefer to as "shitpost evidence".>Which consists of a variety of things, but mostly stuff like accidentally forgetting to take trips off while samefagging, accidentally posting images with hashes known for being used by shitposters, and full blown self-d0x incidents due to the shitposter being too mad to notice they accidentally phoneposted a saved selfie of themselves while spamming shitposts, as well as other lolcow tier moments.>The schizo in question naturally instantly starts pretending they are someone else and how everyone is just using a conveinent boogieman.>The constant back and forth of spam of shitposts and "evidence" inevitably starts making the schizo mad, and they inevitably slip.>Depending on the severity of the slip up they may end up accidentally having another lolcow moment, which will get screencapped and used as "evidence" for the next 1-10 years depending on the severity of the fuck up.>People milk the lolcow moment for all it's worth having a laugh among the bros for making it possible.If you think this is mental illness, trust me, it is, but there's not much else you can do to have fun on this shithole when the moderation of this site actively punishes attempts of proper discussion of anything japanese unless you are doomfagging to your heart's content.
>>739231397I fucking hate mihalyGod what a dogshit "rival" that you aren't even allowed to kill until his 4th appearance And then he never even dies
>>739231304I did it with the rafale and HCAA spam
>>739231645>tfw tabloid dies offscreen in the 2nd to last mission
>>739237340Hopefully 8 irons out the boss ace issue, but I'm not sure how since 7 is as fast as it isMihaly's scripting is obscene but then you fight Mimic during Anchorhead Raid with zero scripting and they go down nearly instantly, they can't keep up at all
>>739231997I really liked the AWACS from PW
>>739237467the only good belkan
Assault horizon was prototupe nu-ace combat. 7 was nu-ace combat. 8 will also be nu-ace combat.
>>739236845The English translations of 3's Japanese version are fine, it's the International version released by the devs in English that's cut down to one route, and even then it's a hodgepodge of missions from various routes without any of the original story to connect anything
>>739215690Not as good as AC, but it definitely good.
>>739237524Galaxy's alright, he's a chill guy>>739237692Argue about 7 all you want but at least it never had DFMNobody on 8's dev team could be stupid enough to try it again
I hate ac3 missiles so much. A coin flip between a neet and a roided jock in terms of effectiveness.
>>739236845>doesn't know about LostWord's translation
>>739237818>doesn't know how to lead his misslesBro use 1st person, there's literally a square to help you. Or use short range missiles like a pleb.
>>739238107>Bro use 1st personAbsolutely disgusting.
>>739237989i wouldn't know, i have the privilege to not care when i can just understand it in japanese directlygood for eop bros tho
>>739237470ECM? That would be fucking obnoxious to play against but entirely appropriate for 2029 Strangereal.
>>739238975>do some future-gen ECM shit where the plane splits into multiple copies by using light refraction and does cloacking shit
>>739228403cope harder Sven, stealth is the future
>>7392382173rd person fags get the rope
>>739229881oh so it doesn't even count then.
>>739239581He doesn't even see his anime styled plane while flying. Why even live?
>>739215690It's fun. It's more fun plane game content when you have played all the fun AC there is to play already.Frontline 59 made it to PC and it's also great.
sex with planes
>>739215690Better
>>739237470Give the AI the same abilities as the player
>>739234602>you have sufficient radar coverage, a cessna riggedSpeed and counter stealth are also important A faster missile will have far more range and maneuverability, see ground versus air launched AIM-120
I loved 4's 'cutscenes' being still images with the narration of the kid as an older man writing a letter to Mobius 1.
>>739241989I always loved the abrupt cut from those images to a super futuristic 3D maps, two completely different worlds
>>739215690Fantastic gameplay, pretty good graphics for indies, story is... There, but has a neat world concept at least.
>>739225376Plen go fast and things go boom
>>739214227>ACE COMBAT 6 RECOMP FOR PCoh neat
>>739239752>yeah reviving a completely dead game that was abandoned by bamco doesn't countI bet you praise the Bluepoint demake of Demon Soul's
>>739243093name a single mod that made a lasting cultural impact, ever
>>739239412>countered by 1970s radar systemshmm
AC04's story and the way it's presented is still the best for me
>Russian planes are a joke (and really have been the whole time) and probably won't be making anything cool any time soonWhen is Ace Combat gonna drop its prohibition on Chinese planes?

>>739243394Uhh...>DOTA>Quake Fortress>Counter Strike>DayZThat's off the top of my head.

>>7392441704 or 7
>>739244170Either AC7, or AC4 if you know how to emulate.
ac4 is a tranime game stop recommending it
>>739244058>The future of air combat... is stealth Doritos of various sizes. any other shape is sub-optimal for RCS.can planefags really live with this?
>>739244170holy trinity.
>>739244546They have no choice. Battleshipfags have been living this nightmare for almost a century, forbidden from ever doing anything cool because all the effective tactics and weapon systems are gay and lame. Planefags are going the exact same route for basically the same reasons.
>>739244659>holy trinity>5 instead of Xshiggy
>>739244546Modern aircraft engagements are 100km BVR fights, who cares what shape the plan is as long as its good at doing just that It's actually a good thing because this means we're closer to getting wacky sci-fi aircrafts again

I don't understand people that don't like score attack missionsNothing better than just racking up kills, ground or air
>>739246581There's already proof it can be resurrected.https://youtu.be/8yDW8j5cif4?It's not much yet, but just like r1delta and ShadPS4, the hard part is already done (getting it to work). It's just improvements from here on out.
Since we're here and everything, anyone's waiting for this? Gameplay looks dope although the roguelike is the thing that's -icking me.
>>739248498Yeah, looked fun and fast. I love speed so this is right up my alley.

>>739248498>flyawaynow is involved
>>739215690I played AC 4, 5, Zero and 7 and I thought PW mogged all of them
Do all games have separate stories?Might get the last one for the next Steam sales, I think it's super cheap to get.
>>739249321They all exist in the same continuity and setting (aside from Assault Horizon and Joint Assault), but they're separate enough that you can play them in any order7 has a few callbacks but it's not necessary to know stuff to enjoy the game, you'll learn all the essentials as you go
>>739249446Neat, thanks.
>>739249321They're connected but not heavily except for Zero and Five. Seven is a bit like MGS4 where it rewards you for playing the older games first but you won't heavily miss out if you play it first.
>>739249501Have fun anon
playing the ace combat on a 3ds in the first person view in 3d is cool, can just whip this little thing out and start pitching and rolling through mountains in 3d, feels almost like a mini vr flight sim
>>739249446I still don't see how 3 comes about, 7 ends about 20 years from the well established corporate run setting in 3. And it seems pretty well established
>>739246094That's just Nuclear Option.
>>739249670Okay well it is a little more complicated when it comes to the first three games, since the Strangereal setting hadn't been established yet they originally took place on "Earth, but Usea is next to Japan", and they had to be added to canon after the fact7 actually does establish quite a bit>Neucom is born out of the EASA being shuttered>General Resources makes its first appearance>AI is becoming more advanced (though ZOE started with 2), more COFFIN technology is being used>Trust in nations and institutions is breaking down (leaving room for the megacorps and the IUN reshuffle into the NUN)>Little details here and there like Data Swallow billboardsAnd then X happens shortly after with all the proto-Neucom planes but 8 is skipping right over that, though I hope we see some of them make appearancesThere's two things to remember about AC: the first is that shit happens really fast because everyone has Japanese construction efficiency/autism and infinite resources (the Space Elevator only took 7 years to build, which is insane), and the second is that Electrosphere is a complete simulation, so we don't exactly know if Cohen gave us all the details about his world, just the ones that were necessary to complete our jobI expect we'll get a decent amount of worldbuilding in 8 to help bridge the gap, but it's hard to know what will make it into canon and what won't, even Kono has said something along the lines of a true Electrosphere game would be impossible to replicate
>>739237989Are there more other than the Nemo one? Which one is the best?
>>739250438IIRC there's no real difference at this point, the first one didn't have a working search/compendium but after the second translation fixed that, they fixed it tooJust grab the cdromance ISO, or maybe ask /aceg/ because I've probably misremembered something
>>739250251I kind of wonder if we are working towards a Electrosphere "Remake" which makes it more in-line with what Ace Combat is now and since the original Electrosphere is a simulation it could also be handwaved that was why things were off.I think it would be neat if Nemo ends up being the enemy ace or wingman and has gone through the "original" Electrosphere.
>>739251196I suspect and hope that'll be the case
>>739231794Also he wrote Digital Circus fanfiction because he meet one of the voice actress
>>739232189I like how crux is guiding you while refueling, implying its him flying the fuel plane
>>739251196It's really funny that people think an Electrosphere remake is possible when 3 had more map variety than 4, 5, and 0 combined, and that was just a single generational leap in technology, not FOUR.Did you not see the FF7 "remake"?
>>739246094>release autonomous glide bombs dozens of miles away>gets sniped by enemy S-400 / Patriot battery
how are russian jets in AC? I love their evil look

I'm 9 missions into AC5 right now. What the hell is with most of these either being gimmicky as fuck or dragged out as fuck? Also what do people generally think of them taking out resupplying? I don't want to say I hate it yet because it does incentivize you to do more than just missile spam but I do feel the main purpose of it is to force you to focus more on issuing commands to the shit AI squadmates. I prefer 04 quite a bit so far.
>>739254265There's quite a few strong ones but it's fairly balanced in most gamesFoxhounds, Terminators, Berkuts, all cool and funThe Su-57 is arguably one of the strongest planes in 7 thanks to maneuverability and PLSL, at least until you get into DLC planes and partsEven the humble Fishbed (in 7) is secretly a monster thanks to machinegun pods where it can shred literally anythingThey often are villain planes, so they do have that going for them as well
>>739254728AC5 is definitely the most narrative heavy AC game outside of 3JP, there's a lot of missions that are more for story purposes than anythingIt's also one of the bigger games in the series with 32~ missions, so they do a lot of different things with all that room they have, but on top of that it also has an arcade mode that's pure "just shoot everything" where you get to play as Mobius 1 againBesides arcade mode there are a few straight up fight levels later on in 5, and Zero is a lot less gimmicky so you have that to look forward to>Also what do people generally think of them taking out resupplying?There are some missions I like having it but ultimately it forces you to get good, some of those later missions in 5 will get you down to the last bullet>issuing commands to the shit AI squadmatesThey'll never make a difference, even with commands Nagase is programmed to be near you regardlessOnly Pixy, Count, and all the boys in Emmeria's air force are worth anything
>>739255268>some of those later missions in 5 will get you down to the last bullet>trying to destroy everything in the fucking Desert Storm missions>No more missiles, SP, only a few cannon rounds left>REINFORCEMENTSi had never realized how inept the wingmen were until that mission
>>739215690Good, but a bit monotonous. Ace Combat puts gimmick missions between the simple kill everything missions, and those are rare in PW, so it's mostly just making all the enemies go away. Fine for one playthrough but eventually you notice the missions are kinda samey.DLC is kino tho. Finally a tunnel run.
>>739214227if i couldnt land on the carrier in top gun (nes) will i be abl eto play this.

what's the deal with AC3? And which version should I get?
>>739243394Gmod
>>739256007JP version patched for englishThe deal is that the western version has a huge part of the content missing.
>>739256007It's Ghost in the Shell with planes with 50+ missions across 5 routes, it's great but can be a bit overwhelmingGrab the Japanese version, translated, should be easy enough to googleThe international version isn't worth it at all

A person with a level 20 superplane can solo a raid IF they've made Ace Combat their life.SOLG IV is probably impossible however.
>>739214227unc combat 8
>>739257648Solg 4 is possible with botshttps://youtube.com/watch?v=ipaXqht8VW4playing Infinity over and over is a good way to git gud at AC
>>739258051I remember fighting the solg in 5 and though the other end of it was bloced so I'd fly in and shoot the final target then hit the air brake to let it slide past meApparently you could fly thourgh the end and I never tried
>>739258362>Apparently you could fly thourgh the end and I never triedIt's pretty intimidating to try, to be fairFlying through a tunnel is one thing, flying through a tunnel as its being dropped through orbit is anotherBut man is it cool
>>739258498Next playthrough I'll give it a shot. with the A-10
>>739258362yeah, you don't need to shoot the solg at all. there's a tunnel you fly through and the core at the center. in INF you can't do that, you have to blow up the 80 something targets on it first along with two TGT FALKEN squadrons that come at you
>>739230826Probably 3 or 4. It's a little strange how overrated 5 is, but I guess most people prefer a standard narrative and larger selection of planes ultimately.
>>739221610Bull Terrier ass plane.
>>739230826Zero, but I am weak to spanish guitar. Made me fall in love with my planefu the Saab Draken. In infinity I ran that plane and the Lancer the most even got the Espada skin from PVP for her.
>>739214227AC7 is on sale rn. is it worth getting just the base edition or is this one of those games where you need to buy all the dlc planes to really enjoy it? I've only played AC1 and AC3. does AC7 keep the anime-style stuff or do they play it more straight
>>739259594Just get the DLC missions since the DLC missions were some of the best in the entire game.
>>739214227What I'd actually like, would be a game with the accessibility of Ace Combat and realistic combat scenarios:>realistic load-outs and ammo capacity>missions where planning and tactics matter>AI that is actually functional, can follow commands and fight efficiently>a resource system, where missiles spent are subtracted from stores and resupply is a thingI'm sick and tired of the retardation of modern 'realistic' flight sims that are just a cash sink for glorified cockpit simulators. I'm also not going to put up with the painful experience that is Falcon BMS campaigns not played in co-op.Most of all, I AM NOT AT ALL INTERESTED IN REPLAYING GAMES I HAVE ALREADY PLAYED TO DEATH A DECADE+ AGO, WHICH I REPLAY REGULARLY THROUGH EMULATORS.>ACE COMBAT 8 (SOON)Fuckers better be cooking up a story that takes the best parts of 4 and 0 and tops both, cause if it's like AC7 again.Also, make a spin-off with piston-engine planes already YOU DUMB LAZY JAPFUCKS!
>>739259594You don't need the DLC planesThe anime is gone but they keep the crazy story and momentsI would get the DLC missions though they are good

>>739261047There's a small modding scene that adds new planes and rebalances and whatnot, it's worth being on PCIf you ever wanted to fly a fully functional Arsenal Bird or Gleipnir, they've got you covered
>>739261157oh I don’t doubt it, but I really enjoy playing it on the PlayStation. I’m fairly happy with the base game as it is; it was only this year that I treated myself to a DLC (on sale) featuring the planes, just to satisfy a whim.

>>739267015It's not all that hard, you don't need to read a 600 page manual first like with DCS. Biggest thing to learn is radar mechanics and how to dodge each type of missile homing. Everything else comes naturally after that. Except helicopters, good luck learning to fly those.

>>739228403The f35 is genuinely an evil project. The amount of waste it has produced is the type of thing to make you weep. This is all known but the personal anecdote I wanted to give is I had two separate chases that live rent free in my head of talking to people, regarding this irl where they defended the F35. Turns out both of them had family that were tangentially related to the project despite being in widely different industries. Which makes sense given the massive scope of the project. Over a trillion dollars. Dozens of separate industries, it has been touched by tens of thousands of people in some way. Just makes me realize every single time you see someone defend the F35, there is a strong chance they have some personal connection to it.
>>739231397Jannies aren’t blind to this, most of them are these type of schizos anyways
>>739270560Please explain how that's different from other modern fighter jets.
>>739234407>Gripens are a joke in modern aviation warfare
>>739270560You can thank retarded congressmen who saw the Raptor and complained about it being 100 mil per jet only to make a shittier more expensive version to be "cheaper"
>>739270680I wouldn't call them a joke, but they're definitely behind. Still a good pick for nations that don't plan to fight the US or China and also can't get something better from either, but simply not up there with the best.
>>739270560I bet half of the budget was spent on trying to make it VTOL
>>739270820Nah. That sort of thing is expensive, but you can bet most of the budget goes to the electronic warfare and communications equipment.You know, the stuff that has me confused why people talk shit about fat amy. Do people still think climb rates matter?
>>739270820Nah they just took an old soviet YAK design from the Cold War.
>>739267827It's basically DCS with Ace Combat mechanics, and you don't need to read a 600 page manual to dogfight.
pw sucks. no sucks. ac3 is highly overrated
>>739270648In order to continue securing the funding necessary for the project, they lobbied american congressmen with promises to bring production of the plane to their states, and other such promises that made the logistics of building it a nightmare. If I remember right, the pieces of the F35 are produced in like 40+ different states before of this.
>>739272450That just makes it complex, not wasteful.

>Playing Project Wingman>Get to the mission that introduces railguns>They're actually just laser weapons that linger.They look pretty but that's about it. Honestly they're kinda pathetic.
Do you think AC8 will use the localized name from AC3 International version? Things like Neucom become Neuwork etc
>>739215690It's alright. I memory holed 80% of it though, I only remember the first mission and the last. And lava. The banter was nice. Soundtrack is nothing remarkable. Final boss is bullet hell.And for a while the alpha of PW was the better AC experience on pc before AC7 released so I was really hyped. But then 7 came out and buried it.
>>739267103as someone who wants to play ac6 on pc, all I saw is that it has problems still and you have to build it yourself unless there's something else I don't know or can't find, but yeah it's like my last ac to play so i hope it's soon i'm playing armored core to satisfy my cravings meanwhile

>>739214227>ACE COMBAT 6 RECOMP FOR PCno more black triangles?>ACE COMBAT INFINITY REVIVAL (SOON)is there even a story in this f2p game?
>>739280342It is lame how even warships in Ace Combat are trivial trash mobs that are sunk by four AIM-9s. You should some semblence of tactics for engaging ground units aside from "what order of destruction is the most optimal for S rank"
>>739280785No one would like that.I do think that frigates are not getting the respect they deserve (the ships labelled as frigates are operating like corvettes), but people are here for the air to air combat, not powerful AA.
>>739244058You realize that "stealth plane" is actually a gunship? That exhaust port at the top has more neon signs than the Morgan's.
>>739259736>I want AC to not be AC.Westoids need their heads blown off or at the bare minimum to be quarantined off the internet forever.
>>739280617Dunno, but there's HD versions of the AC3 planes, like the Delphinus and the Night Raven.
where we you when Ace Combat Infinity multiplayer is back?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x3NsJr0I53k
>>739280617>is there even a story in this f2p game?I don't think so. People called it an online game idk how that worked though since looking at AC7's dead multiplayer.
>>739280785>warships in Ace Combat are trivial trashIf you played 6, you wouldn't be saying this
>>739282180Fair, I only played 3, 5, 0, and 7.
>>739282289Play it on Xenia, the campaigns missions in 6 are divided into Operations Areas. If you protect your naval allies, and complete their Operation, you can land and resupply/refit and then take off during the mission without having to fly to the return line.

>>739278428Don't worryRailguns are a pain in the ass later on
>>739244058>>739244546>Aircraft design is heading down the dorito path instead of the organic machine oneGrim.Maybe I'll live long enough to see cool spacecraft.
If this is real, AC8's ost will be heavily lacking. This sounds like Tales Of or other JRPG shit Bamco pumps out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pw7W7GfVgMk
>>739283476that's standard clickbait AI people make to get views
>>739254265They are sexy
>>739283564>From the "ACE COMBAT/S THE SYMPHONY 30th Anniversary Concert Album"
>>739283476sounds pretty good to me>only heard one track and he's already doomingnever change /v/
If AC8 takes any notes from PW I hope they copied having a WSO for two seaters
>>739283830They're doing multiple SP Weapons.
>>739280617>no more black triangles?I played it in xenia a few months ago, gameplay is fine, cut scenes are fucked up.
can i play 7 without the others?
>>739285163Sure. It references events from 4, but it's fine.
>>739281746>get this setup>potato pc can only run it at 10fps>can barely even co-opi still had fun, finally a reason to upgrade
uptick in Razgriz art lately
>>739218858Piper cub bros
>>739282562Xenia is shit. Ground triangles are still present and audio issues happen frequently.
>>739215690Its ace combat with limits removed, gets pretty crazy around some missions
Are there mods that make 7 more like the older games?
>>739286812You can change the color of your hud and change portraits, but other than that it's more planes as far as I know
>>739277228And then there's Nintendo autistically hoarding every single asset they've ever made, as the gigaleak a few years back proved.
>>739287890There's replacements and gameplay change stuff, some extensive and a fresh one even brought MP stats to SP content, but it's buried in all the plane spam.
>>739277228>never trust a jap company to safe keep their old assetsAnon, pretty much only square and bamco are retarded enough to do this.And even then bamco only got his bad habit due to harada being a retard.
>>739288132There are literally no JP companies that keep their old data around. Nintendo didn't even have the rom files for their switch emulators, they had to use no-intro sets.A few companies have warehouses of old arcade machines, but all production data for games was wiped 95% of the time because they wanted the drive space for the next title.
>>739288486>Nintendo didn't even have the rom files for their switch emulators, they had to use no-intro sets.you're drinking the eceleb koolaid too hard brutha
>>739259736boring faggot
>>739259594The DLC planes are all really busted so you're better off ignoring them until NG+ if you do end up getting them
