Very nice
>>739358263Nothing can top zero
Kino
>unsung war reference near the endoh boy I can't wait for them to pull "ghost of theve"
This is Kobayashi right?
who the fuck is theveis that even a word
>>739358665its meI.. am theve...
>>739358665it's a city in usea
>>739358665It's the capitol city of the Federation of Central Usea
Is it me or do those vocals sound absolutely terrible? It's like they were taken from a different composition.
new girl>>739358836Sounds fine to me.
>>739358836Based on the video description it seems to be from the 30th Anniversary Concert, so this is probably not how it'll sound in-game.
yet another slava nato ac game
>>739358836I am kinda wondering what's up with them too. Idk if I'd say it's terrible, but they're slightly offputting in a way I would have trouble describing.
>>739358836sounds AI generated unironically op is also a faggot
>>739358982elaborate on this
>>739358263I am a true Ace Combat fanTherefore I don't give a rats ass about these new games including 7
>>739359014retard alert>>739358983it's from the 30th anniversary concert, so it's not really studio quality
Anyone else playing Infinity
>>739358263>Woke combat
>>739359042The country NEXT TO the Russia stand-in is the antagonist of 8 this time so apparently anon wants to be fragile about it
>>739359437Online working?
>>739359437I haven't played Infinity before but I was thinking of trying now that it's back up. Do you use RCPS3 or whatever the PS3 emulator was called?>>739359503Yeah they rescued it.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x3NsJr0I53k
>>739359503I've completed 8 online coop matchesI've crashed just as often but it's still ridiculous the amount of progress that's been made>>739359524It uses RPCS3 but it uses a portable version 'tuned specifically for it', whatever that meansNow I have two PS3 emulators
>>739358665it's like Razgriz but gay
>>739358263why is it in quotes
>>739359524Can you not play it on an actual PS3 at all?
>>739359807I mean you could probably mod your PS3, you gotta make it so the game is not pointing at Namco's dead servers.
>>739358982lmao slavpypo so fragile they don't season dey beetroots
>>739358263release date when?
>>739358665>wings of sbeve
>>739358549Zero wasn't the main theme, it was a boss track.The best one.
>>739358983>they're slightly offputting in a way I would have trouble describing.it's japan-english. same "masterpiece" that brought us HAVE SO FAR 2 GOOO and other armored core-isms.
>>739358263So what kind of shit will the Belkans pull this time?
>>739360350Blue Skies is an actual masterpiece though
>>739360262How did she survive getting pegged by a missile?And while we are at it why did the drone fire the missile at her, did it just hate women?
>>739358836yeah it sounds half baked the impact of her voice does not sync with the escalation of the song. The song gets better at 1:05 when she shuts up.
>>739360406>Blue Skies is an actual masterpiece though100% wrong, blue skies is overwrought trash just like megalith. too far up its own ass about being "ebic" and "cinematic".
>>739360543opinion discarded
>>739360543nta but I do not consider megalith over rated probably cause I only remember the song as the DarkIce remix. Also kino how a couple of fan songs went into Infinity.
>>739360409Been a while since I played it but wasn't it a friendly jet shaking off a missile that got her caught in the crossfire rather then the drone choosing to shoot her?
>>739360612>DarkIceThat guy barely remixes anything, the composition and the overall mix is the same, it's just extended. You remember what's basically the original track, and it's a damn good track.
>>739360612>Also kino how a couple of fan songs went into Infinity.Which ones?
What's your favorite music in the series so far, anons?"Lighthouse" for me
>>739360691After spending a lot of time thinking about it over the years I like Zero the most, it's just got almost everything and it's much more than just the "le flamenco" track both thematically, lyrically, etcThat's not to say I don't like a lot of tracks in AC7 though, Anchorhead Bay & Alicorn are amazing, Mimic too.
>>739360691>TibSons' Devil's Spear
So what did the Belkans do this time?
>>739360663exactly that's why I enjoy it because it was just a matter of giving different parts more punch from the original song. Blue Skies in Infinity was a fan made version. They used the song in one of their initial promo videos
Damnit, your right.Guess I just thought the clanker targeting her specifically to create false tension was so funny I substituted it for what actually happened.
>>739360880https://youtu.be/apaHBFCcMmU?si=HtcbQmwU6h_Wvbdp
>>739360691It's pretty much all gold, but I guess the songs that are constantly stuck in my head are>Diapason>Ice Cage>Magic Spear>Alicorn>Fifteen Years Ago>Invasion/Liberation of Gracemeria>Prelude (AC4)
>>739359847How?
>>739361294Double checking, it seems like I'm talking about my ass since you need a patched emulator. Maybe someone down the line will figure out how to apply it to an actual PS3 tho
>>739360409Count blocked the missile with his plane.Because instead of going down the elevator with everyone else, like a normal person, she decided to parachute down.Erusian women owe me sex.
>>739360627Yeah count saved her ass by tanking the missile
>album is not up for dl yetit's never been more over
>>739360409>>739361721Her fucking helmet being blown clean off but her being unscathed made me so confused about what the hell just happened and how she could still be aliveeven though it's one of my favourite games the writing is just so fucking ass it's insane, it's like it was written by aliens
>>739361770Will be by the end of the month, current uploads are all preorders coming in I think
>>739358836It's sounds shit in the way a lot of live performances do, I'm assuming it was from some concert.
>>739361829The writing is so fucking retarded Your player should have been put on a trailer and executed for murdering the president, not being allowed to fly fucking jets again
>>739361837the quality of the upload is so ass, you can hear the bitrate starvation clearly idk if he double compressed it or what
>>739361918it is
>>739361926on trial*
>>739361953That would explain it then. I don't think the main theme is particularly interesting this time though, I think the general ost is going to be weaker due to the main guy stepping back. A mediocre AC OST is still high tier I guess.
>>739361926Harling was the former prez, not acting one.Trigger's situation was more of 'throw someone under the bus for the failure of the last 2 operations.'
>>739358263People are speculating on the lyrics currently but it seems like the first bit is in English, and the climax of the song is in Spanish>Out into amber skies>Where the sun was good on his wings>No one touches him in the air>He told men that they (brought them?) stole>There’s freedom in hearts of (thee? / Theve?)>And a path that bestowed to he>He takes care of the one that calls>Like a wind floating far and wide>Far and high!>FUERZA HECHA DE TU BONDAD>CRISTO VIVE, CRISTO VIVE>TU PODER ME CONECTA HACIA TU FE SEÑOR>Y VERE TU SER DESDE MI OTRO HOGAR CUMPLIR TU META, CUMPLIR TU SUEÑO>TU PODER ME CONECTA HACIA TU FE SEÑOR
>>739362068I mean plenty of the other composers on 7 were very capable, as long as Kobayashi does the important bits I think it'll go together.
>>739361926That's the best part of the story.
>>739362239Kobayashi was also freelance for 7, so his position isn't too different on 8.>AC8 will have Ryo Watanabe (Magic Spear/Last Hope/a few 3D Cross Rumble tracks) & Mitsuhiro Kitadani (Mimic/Sighthound) as the main composers, but Keiki Kobayashi is also still part of the teamAnd they supposedly have the rest of the Namco sound team which means all the Tekken guys and the other guys they brought for AC7, like the guy who worked on AC3's OST I believe.
>>739362260Yeah, wish they'd ran with that, but development hell happened.
>>739360543This is the most retarded post i've seen today.
>>739360409>>739361721>>739361829that scene was so fucking stupid that when she spoke in the final mission i legitimately thought she soulmerged with the space elevator or some shit until she was mentioned in the end cutscene
>>739358982they always wank flankers enough in these so you should be grateful
>music spoilersI'll wait to hear it in-game, with the proper context.
>>739361829My first time through I genuinely thought she'd died and hugging and muggings or whatever they were called were imitating her and trying to send Trigger off in the wrong direction since the cutscene before the mission seemed to imply that the drones were getting a little too smart
>>739360262someone pls post the flag gif, both normal and fast versions
>>739364201
>>739364272
>>739364165i spoiled myself on all of the hypest tracks in the PS2 titles and still shouted "KINO!!!!!!!!" at my monitor when i got to where each track played in each game, and i shall do the same with 8
>>739364272>>739364317tyvm fren, needed to save them
>>739360543This is what an actual bot post looks like fellas
For me? Comona. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uwlOsn6WsMY
Razgriz a cute
>>739364319Performative.
When am I getting a Ace combat turn based rpg?
>>739364523I'm a big fan of the more menacing interpretation. Albeit that's the demon, not the ghost.
>>739364616Cool but also it's a teeny tiny civilian plane, fighter jets are xboxhueg so it's gonna be a lot harder for them to pull off>plane says hamilton on the sideheh
>>739364613>Four jeggas in a row
>>739364667I just think it's cool and doesn't get nearly as much art as it deserves.
>>739364667I recently decided to read the actual Blue Dove for the Princess story and the Ghost looked like this.
>the journey home
>>739364726What tunnel could fit a fighter? The channel one?
we need an Ace Combat where you nuke OSEA into an uninhabitable wasteland
>>739365209CopeIt's called North Osea not South Belka
>>739365209>Alt universe where Pixy succeeded and Ulysses somehow didn't kill everyone>Post apocalypse air force warlord simulatorWould make for a good arcade mode for 8
>>739361169>Ice CageMuh nigga
is the whole series worth playing?
>>739366728Yeah. The only entries that you should skip are the GBA game and Assault Horizon. Assault Horizon Legacy is also technically an Ace Combat 2 remake. Everything else is worth playing, even the Sky Crawlers game that Project Aces did.
>>739366831Hell, he can even play Infinity now that it's playable again.
>>739359483And Wings of Theve/Ghost of Kiev is very subtle. I do like that the background for this appears to be the FCU making up bullshit-tier kill claims
>>739360691Transparent blue holds a special place for me.export AC3 was my exposure to the series.https://youtube.com/watch?v=onQoQudFGV0&pp=ygUUVHJhbnNwYXJlbnQgYmx1ZSBhYzM%3D
>>739364928We love that song too. We'll fight with you!
>>739362068Enchanter I and II were fantastic and they weren't Kobayashi.
>english lyrics instead of latinehhh....
>>739361545Damn. That's gay.
>>739368259Some of it seems to be spanish.
I wonder how the insignia proper will look
>>739358836closed the video by the time the vocal started.
>>739368194wiping tears from my eyes... i kneel...
I never played any of these games. Despite being a boomer I missed out on even the PS1 era games. Which one should I try?
>>739369809Any place is good to start, other than Assault Horizon and Joint AssaultI'd recommend either 4 or 7 to start with
>>739358263>>739358836Yeah it's ok but not that great compared to past themes.
Fucking sucks, Team Aces is dead
Fucking great, Team Aces is back
>>739358263Yeah this is trash just like AC8 will be. Guess we're waiting for PW2
>>739358263Terrible
>>739358263well there goes any hope i had for ac8i was hoping we ad least get a decent ost out of it after that awful first trailer but scamco cat even do that right
>>739358665You, the player.
I hope beyond hope that wings of theve has co op.
>>739358263So is this game carrier based or something?
>>739372353apparently you can't type either
>>739372563pretty sure the steam page already mentions it
>>739372596Probably for the first couple of missions yes, I doubt they'll limit the player to only carrier aircraft.
>>739373595>Hornet autistically screeching
>>739358263Love it. Sounds like it's made for a setpiece where your squadron break through something, deliver a final payload and escape. Mega stormcloud super-"fortress" where it seems like you're the only one who made it through but your SP weapon wasn't enough to take out the core and then suddenly your team comes in and your job is to protect them from enemy aces?
sneed
>>739373595Considering the finale of 7 you can fit multiple hangars inside one carrier these daysHow did Avril find the time to buff up all those planes
>>739365590>Post apocalypse air force warlord simulatorPREDICTABLE
>>739365209god I want the REAL version of AC7 where Scrap Queen orders you to burn osea to the ground
>>739358263Breathing intensifies.
>>739372596Allegedly so. It's your home base and you apparently walk around talking to characters between missions.>>739373595They'll probably just pretend any plane can take off and land on carriers. These games aren't realistic in the slightest as it is.
>>739375594I don't think the whole game will be on a carrier but it definitely could be the main hub
>>739358263This can't be the real theme. It's the worst fucking shit I've ever heard in my life.
>>739358263Goddamn the Japs just know what makes a game's soundtrack. I can't wait to hear the rest.
>>739358263did they recorded vocals on a laptop mic
>>739368259Trailer version is better desu
>>739378731It's from the live orchestral album they just released for the 30th anniversary
>>739358263This is awful. It sounds AI generated, especially those dogshit and incomprehensible vocals.
>>739373523AWWWWWW YEEEEEEECUM HISTORIA
I just think I've outgrown ace combat. I never played 7, last one I played was that assault horizon slop. I still listen to the soundtracks from 4, 5 and zero occasionally but otherwise I have no interest in this
>>739380509Then why did you feel the need to post about it?
>>739380509>Assault Horizon defeated anonNot surprised, playing that made me physically ill
no AC will top the ps2 trilogyand that main theme SUCKS
When is the game releasing?
>>739358982They didn't make flankers the flying coffins that they are irl in any AC game and you're still complaining?
>>739380509>>739380760Assault Horizon is literally the second best game in the series after 6.
i dont feel so good ac bros
>>739381757I feel fine.
>>739381449You only say that because you're in DFM and can't diverge from being stupid
>>739381757
>>739381757I'm sure the game will be fun, but I doubt it will live up to the trailers just like 7 didn't. And if this is indicative of the soundtrack quality... oof.
>>739358665theve nuts
>>739358836the mix doesn't seem right, possibly recorded live in the same hall. Damn my classical ears a good from " 30th Anniversary Concert Album"
>>739358836No, not just you. The lyrics are unintelligible and her voice is terrible. It feels like listening to how bad AI generated images used to look.
for me it's sol squadron and lost kingdom
For me it's Rena and Dision, Revelationhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aiC7hg49lxw
>>739362454>like the guy who worked on AC3's OST I believe.epic
>>739358665It's actually pronounced Thyiv
>>739385125she'll be the first one to die if we're being realistic
>So, have you found a reason to fight yet?>Buddy.
>>739385343Thankfully AC isnt DCS
>>739358263That was surprisingly mediocre
>>739385640we either get a brownie or huxian
>>739358982An anti NATO game is going to be dimes when it finally happens
>>739358665It's like thedipous
>>739385640DCS is a far better game. You only have yourself to blame for not being competent enough to play it.
>>739358263awful, just awfulcan't believe we lived to see Ace Combat go to shitthank god for Project Wingman
>>739389373
>>739390568That track *is* terrible. No idea why you think he's baiting.
>>739360691
>>739358665>theveAdd it to the list.
>>739390568once you realise that most anons are severely autistic and the slightest change genuinely drives them into a frothing rage most posts on this board will make more sense
>>739358263Cringe.Entire franchise is cringe. Play real arcade games like Energy Airforce and Aero Elite.Made by japs
>>739382515lmao burn
oh yeah I forgot AC threads attract the resident DCS schizo. wow, can't believe he's still around and still shows up on cue after all these years
>>739392789Puts a lot of replies into perspective.
>>739392789It's not him.I'm just an enjoyer if you may say.
>>739392789He posts in /wsg/ plane threads these days, but he's docile thereUnless you post Ace Combat and then he reveals himself, like Razgriz only always terrible
>>739393141our forefathers promised us a paradise like this, when lolcows could be found and baited so easilythe golden king smiles
>>739392605>Why the fuck does he carry 16 special missiles?>He's the DEMON OF RAZGRIZ? In real life, you cannot be a Demon of Razgriz, period.>That giant flying drone carrier with an energy shield generator? Literally doesn't exist!ACbros in shambles....
>>739393298>in real life you can't b-ACKGhost of Theve bros RISE UP
>>739358263If the vocals were going to be complete gibberish then the chanting typically used in the past games would've been a better fit. This just sounds like they put a pop song over an otherwise serviceable AC theme. I expect this game to be almost as controversial as Assault Horizon; maybe more so.
>>739358263Fucking shit vocals. What the hell happened?
>739358263Shame it's gonna be drowned out by the bug eyed you-know-what constantly yapping in your ear...She's in every god damn game now...
Lyrics have to flow with the instruments. You can't just jam whatever into a verse or it sounds like a japanese anime opening translated into English
If they allude to AC3 near the end of the campaign it will be so fucking kinohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_UiIO3oAos&list=PLDD61C76EF278E530&index=4
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7zyfFDDW8EKINO!
>>739394765My hope is the start of the campaign has more like regular Ace Combat orchestra music but as you progress through the game the music slowly gets more and more electronic until the finale is full AC3 style music.
>>739391534>>739387536>>739383504>>739381757>>739393540>>739392605>>739393560>>739394624I thought DCSfag died
Hidden gem of a track right here.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbX7ey23ajU
>>739394765AC7 already teased it a bitAC8 is fated to have more references here and there, or maybe direct plot points related to AC3We're going back to space btw
>>739394765>Mission Update: Shoot down the Prototype AI "Nemo"
>>739365590>>Post apocalypse air force warlord simulatorFuck RB-D2 WHERE THE FUCK IS THE CONQUEST MODE UPDATE
>>739394765I hope the Neucom prototypes from ACX come back.
>>739394624 (Me)Listening to it again. Decided to analyze further.Some verses have NINE WORDS. NINE. You just don't do that. The song is decent aside from the lyric structure. It's Faceless Soilder level, IMO.
>>739395593They had a few themes of ACX in the recent orchestra so who knowshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ld2-JyAsYAg
I'd be amazed if Wings of Theve is worse than Skies Unknown
>>7393959137 was the first AC I played and I liked it, but the back third was weak since the fight becomes really impersonal. Fighting against AI drones doesn't have the same connection that fighting against pilots who are talking shit over comms has.
WINGS ON STEVE....
>>739396087I think it was great because of how prescient it was. You weren't just fighting the drone but the concept of them as well
7 struggled from incoherent storytelling and development hell. you can easily tell the game was re-storyboarded 3-4+ times because its story arcs are so disjointed. the gameplay and special weapons were competent, but unimaginative (except pulse laser). despite 7's commercial success the bar is still very low.as long as ace team has been taking notes from the competition and is willing to iterate on gameplay and lean into the series strengths, then ace 8 should be alright too. it seems like there's a much more coherent vision this time, so it probably won't have the same flaws as AC7.
>>739375021>>739395563i miss them
>>739394624This is exactly why it sounds so fucking bad. Besides that the singer's voice is also horrible.
>>739395692Legitimately nobody cares about it being nine verses, most people oitside of here think it sounds good even.
>>739399818No they don't.
>>739399840Post them then
>>739399818I don't care if it sounds good to whomever, it's not professional and I personally think it sounds off or like anime music.
>>739401190>animewhat the fuck do you think ace combat is, retard
>>739401190>Like anime musicLike, i don't know, AC after AC3? DCSfag never learns
>>739401190It sounds like token JRPG music which is new to AC. Even when Go Shiina composed it had westaboo flare.
>>739401572It doesn't sound any different from Fighter's Honor or Blue Skies (Infinity mix)
>>739401638The Smash Brothers/Soul Calibur composer did Blue Skies Remix, not Go Shiina.
>>739401886That has nothing to do with my post though? I think it sounds like those tracks & it sounds fine.
>>739358263Yup, kino as always
>>739401190This>>739401247>>739401465>>739401638>>739402381>>739404078Retarded trannies
>>739404142Second most retarded post I read today.
>>739404078Yup, cringe dogshit as always.
>>739402381Well, technically the first post was about just the lyrics themselves of the OP song, not Fighter's Honor or Blue Skies.
>>739404958They never actually explained what was bad about the lyrics or what the lyrics were since there are no professionsl ones. Really, it just seems like the typical schizo performative rage.
>>739405426Speaking of schizos, it looks like this thread is mostly one person pretending to be multiple people to keep the thread alive instead of letting it die a natural death.
>>739358665It was meant to be sieve but they mistranslated the katakana
>>739358263Its ok i guess, not the best. Tho Kojima gave me "james bond intro song" fatigue so am bias
>>739380509because it's just Gundamslop with planes. The moment you realize how much they fellatio the player because they can't write an actual main character it loses so much of the charm. Only 3 and Zero are not cringe inducing to replay
>>739359524>Only available through DiscordFuck these retards
