There are times where I think some things thought up by fans are cooler than what ended up in the finished game.
>>542989849There should be a game about Mihaly desu.
>>542989849>Mihaly realises mid-fight that fighting Trigger is not going to help anybody>He ceases fire and moves to land>The AI, having been programmed to never give up the fight, refuses to land and re-engages>Mihaly has no control over his aircraft. Recognising this, he gives a few final words to Trigger and ejects, as the AI cannot control the purely mechanical ejector>The damn thing keeps fighting you without him
>>542994878You KNOW that shit would've gone hard.Personally, it would've been nice if there were ways to save the Spares.>shoot down enough drones and High Roller lives>get between Count and Full Band, and Count eventually realises why you were spoiling his shotNo idea how you could save Champ without cutting that one cutscene, though.
>>543003129Shoot him down yourself so that he may eject.
If they do go the future planes route, hope they have some super planes with alternative and probably radioactive fuel sources.

>>543039982Why did you post an empty picture?
>>543039982>>543045207
when are we gonna get an AC about evading your own SAMs
>>543003129Well you can save one Spare on Pipeline if your fast enough in shooting down drones you can save the mook Hornet Spare that gets shot down in that mission and you thought it was scripted. Its really not its more of a hidden timed event.
>>543053356Is this a new self kill from this week? Or just one of the several times they've done it in the last 3 years?
>>543062828from likethe last 24h
>>543064321Ah no wonder
Russia shoots down its own Su-30Watching a Ukrainian Yak-52 tip a drone out of the sky like its a V1Been a fun week in the air
>>543076756Fine work on the telekinesis officer's part
Slow night for /vg/, which is a good things for us I suppose. You know I'm beginning to believe most of you are normal people who go outside and have fun and there are only a couple truecels around these parts.
>>543076756Can't imagine how good this must feel to a former Harrier pilot.
I'm going to post this JDAMfish everyday until you like it.
>>5430533565 kind of had that.
>>543053356reminds me of a comic i drew that eventually recirculated back to me as an edit. i drew an s300 shooting down a sukhoi, and someone then edited it as the super hornet getting shot down by the us navy a few months back. funny how small the world is sometimes.
Bad Idea: Chimera Mini
>>543115175It looks cute.
You guys hear about some PLAAF pilot going on state TV and bragging about getting a lock on a couple stealth fighters? Assuming the encounter he describes did happen, it sounds like he got jumped by them and only got a lock because he was in visual range. He also claims he got to do a barrel roll over the top of one of them. So if that was during a war that guy would either be missing in the Pacific Ocean or vaporized by an AMRAAM. Again that assumes the encounter actually happened at all.
Looks like there's going to be another rerelease of AC Hasegawa models for the 30th anniversary
>>543142326Always good to see, kits like this tend to get scalped to hell and back.
I like they have unit logo displays included now
>>543142326I don't know much about models, do these comes pre painted or something?
>>543149871nah, you have to assemble and paint them yourself. Like Gundum, or Warhammer.
>>543150608WhatI've bought plenty of Bandai and Gundam to know I'm not required to paint.
They're never gonna let them go, are they?
>>543159681These aren't gunpla, they're your grandad's plastic models.
>>543172695Hey, if it works, it works.
>>543090452What if I already like it huh you fucking belkan
>>543172695Not until their cost per flight hour becomes too high. They already exist and while they're dubiously effective in contested airspace it looks like they're still useful for roles like this.
>>543172695Planes like her are great drone hunterslots of hardpoints = can carry a fuckton of rockets which translates into one plane can kill hordes of drones while other faster planes can do what they need to do.
And this is the last one
Plenes
>>543194170It looks really imposing for some reason. I guess the tail engine really gives that impression.
>>543172695There's nothing else like it
bweeeaeeeyooom nyoom....
remember to give way to fighter pilots
i was trying to play MP the other day, but the only matches up at this point are 1v1s. it's really quite sad to see that the "pro" "community" in ac7 mp has just essentially scared away the nuggets, semi-decent players, and decent players out of playing the game. genuinely just spent 30 minutes watching sukhois do psm-chaining around me (and only killing me with guns or teleported laggy 6aams with hypercurve) and wondering why these people haven't done something better with their lives.just really sad desuwa
>>543178923she's not even belkan, buddy... now you just made her sad...
>>543237895I'm a fucking monster... even the JDAM is depressed... actually V2ing myself
fast ass board today
>>543090452I HATE IT
>>543259521HE HATES IT
>>543142326I just think they're neat
gonna be looking forward to buying new plane parts in the war eShop in AC8
>>543271432What do you think MRP stands for?
>>543283913Mr. P...
>>543285427kek
the simulation continues
It's a bit different to AC, but if you buddies haven't tried this KINO then check it out
>>543285427Rare Pixy successfully acquired. Time to repay it.
>>543045207You don't see the dark blue sky?
What happened here? We used to be decently alive
>>543307073Lack of any AC or AC-adjacent news to talk about and discuss, shrimple as.
>>543307073Nothing, that's the problem.Nothing on AC8, nothing on possible PS2 trinity remasters, nothing on PW, not even fixes for the shit the F59 update broke.I guess there's DMC but that's not out yet and the style is pretty polarizing.
PS2 remasters will literally never happen because of licensing shit
>>543307073I suppose that's what happens when there's no new game in a hot minute. The threads died prematurely from time to time but sometimes they still managed to go all the way to the bump limit after a while.
>>543199826It helps but I don't think its one part its several things the tiny dot on her nose and the way her cockpit windows look really help in this.
BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRVVVVVVVVRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
>>543310415
Yeah I posting this on a blue board
>>543322150At least spoiler it, I almost open my pants on a train
Is Dragonet class supposed to be that weak or is it because of limitation?
I'm really not feeling Ace Combat 4, it just feels dry and dullI thought I was getting superpowered anime jet fighting Macross tier nonsense
>>543333737Did you play any other ace combat games before?
>>543334281I haven't
>>543334305Oh. Well, Ace Combat is like that. If you want something more....complicated, I suggest playing 5 or 6
>radio calls out fox 2>check outside>there's planes >no foxes
>>543336013Think again buddy
>>543191102For one very bewildered moment I thought that was a German F-14.
>>543333737well, you could play project wingman if you'd like that. it has touhou.
>>543346223I hate how it's accurate.>plen Touhou
>>543343169>German Tomcats have four engines
>>543355135>Add more engine for more speedWunderwaffe is back on the menu
>>543308565i mean, they re-released ac5 on ps4/5 with ac7. i don't think licenses for the planes are an issue, unless if you're talking about music or something.
>>543367080Blurry I think? the rest seems to be inhouse music
>>543333737Wait for DMChttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ezlR_mwZDFQ
we're never getting those liveries man
>>543321574bad saber!
>>543392123Cute.
>>543392123Are those drop tanks
>>543392123Very cute, thanks for the very nice surprise draw.
>>543432954Cute Korean butt
>>5433337374 was the game that finalized and set in stone how the series will play so its basic but fun>I thought I was getting superpowered anime jet fighting Macross tier nonsenseYou want to play 6 then
>>543446891
>>543447187
>>543447187I miss them looking like stars.
>>543455335Same
>>543367080Wasn't that only an exclusive pre-order shenanigans thing?
Are the PS2 games supposed to look weird, or is that the emulator being strange? It's hard to explain, it's like there's a vaseline filter on the screen>it's a le old gameOther games from the era look fine
>>543460001Have you considered posting a screenshot?
>>543460696God damn it I thought I attached itIt just looks blurry
>>543460910Are you emulating them? If not then unfortunately that's how it looks, if you are fuck around a bit with the graphical options, there's also a mod for a higher resolution HUD which makes quite a difference.
>>543461772I am, using PCSX2
>>543461950https://ostrichmods.com/trilogy.htmlHUD mods, highly recommended, even more so for 5 and Zero. I'd upscale the internal resolution, apply anti-blur, no interlacing and widescreen patches, there may be a couple of extra settings but I just opened my emulator to check and it seems to have forgotten what it is or how to do things so I'm working on fixing that.
It isn't applying the HD HUD right now but mine looks a lot better even without it
We should really update the emulation guide one of these days, that thing is incredibly outdated. Who manages it anyways? Oh god don't tell me it was Brady.
>>543477257Stinky
>>543392123really cute. always nice to see you posting again!
>>543459753yeah, but pre-order shenanigans are still subject to licensing bullshit.
>Oct 21stAC5 release date in JapanUS release date was 25thAC5 is officially 25 years old today
>>543494708No they fall under a legal loop hole it was listed and labeled as a preorder bonus. Meaning your not paying for it in the cost as the cost is for the retail product is not whatever is attached on with the product.What does that mean? Since your not selling AC5 & 6 with 7 but only selling 7 with a free bonus of 5 or 6 then you don't have to pay license fee or try and get the rights to sell a game with those planes in it again.Confused? Good I got confused just typing that out. TLDR: If its listed as free/bonus you ain't gotta pay for license or rights to use something.
>>543460910You can upscale it too!>open PCSX2's settings>click on graphics>click on rendering
>>543463493The guide while very outdated still has a couple of things that still apply Check over it and do what you still can with it.Here is how I have mine setHD HUD: YESGraphics API: Use Vulkan its the best choice >Display tabAnti blur: checkedWidescreen patch: Personal choice really, I play it like I did on my PS2 when these were new games in 4:3 but this one is all up to you on how you want to play the game>Render tabInternal res: Whatever you monitor resolution is set it to that size.Anisotropic filter: 16xBlending accuracy: High>Post Processing FXAA: checkedLeave the Contrast drop down box set to none
>>543508050Got some F-4 belly action seconds later.
Notice how all the AC 4 buddies fly the Rafale?
>>543504574thanks for reminding me why i hate licensing shit. man that's retarded.oh well. could be worse, i guess.
navalized plens a best
Does anyone remember that artist who only posted every few months and his posts were paintings of AC 4's mission meant to look like photos taken of Mobius 1? Last I checked he was on the civilian escort mission.
>>543556125Yes, he has made any new ones since then
>>543556973*Hasn't
>>543556973Oh, damn. Well can I at least get his name?
>>543557852https://www.pixiv.net/en/artworks/125813015His last one was Stonehenge
>>543559148>January 1, 2025Safe Return any day now haha.
She can now legally drink in the US today
I think I might play 5 just to celebrate even though I don't really enjoy playing it all that much. Maybe I should leave it for the US release date as it's easier to dedicate a whole day to it then than working with what's left of today.
