>>572424395desu i might return to it if they make korea war era version of their bootleg nuclear option gamemode
it's not fair
>>572521434That would be neat and fun, so you can be certain Gaijin's not going to do it, and if they do, they'll find a way to ruin it.
>>572521747They'll build another one if for nothing more than national pride.
>>572522880It was originally built to haul the Buran shuttle on its back and its fuel tanks in the cargo bay. It just so happened that being able to haul outsized loads around was useful enough to keep it flying after the Soviet collapse. Not a whole lot of space shuttles that Russia or Ukraine need to haul around anymore, not to mention neither will ever have the budget the Soviet Union did. It's not impossible they'll try to build another one or salvage and restore the wreck, but I wouldn't hold my breath.
>no F-5 in AC8
>>572524425Yeah, for some reason PA decided to be faggots and stop letting us fly it.
>>572524391Wasn't Antonov kind of in a bad way since before the 2022 invasion started? They'd probably need to spin up a new company to make a Miriya 2: Revengeance at this point. Although honestly I'd try spinning it as an xbawks hueg drone mothership kinda like what China's doing. Except hopefully of higher quality.
Post some liveries you'd like to see in 8.
>>572524603>xbawks hueg drone mothership kinda like what China's doingelaborate and post pics
>>572524804WW2 RAF camo, looks baller on anythingBonus points for invasion stripes
>>572524813I was talking about pic related, although I misremembered what it is. It's not a cargo plane that carries drone, but rather a drone that can carry smaller drones, i. addition to the usual jobs of drones like this.
>>572525159Also just more aggressor squadron camosHalf a dozen variants of >grey, but with different tail artis boring as shit
>>572525159I do love me some boomer liveries. I think it'd be cool for one of the Hornets to have that lighe blue livery the US Navy used for Wildcats. Also since the MiG I posted was an aggressor, I'd love to see this aggressor livery as well. The F-35 looks good in camo.
>>572525540Every plane looks better in camo. I generally consider the F-35 a rather ugly plane but in that photo you posted it looks baller.
>>572524603A fatass cargo plane has more immediate use case and already has proven design principles to work off, and that's assuming any new production gets greenlit at all instead of either any and all reconstruction funds getting pocketed by various oligarchs or Airbus managing to push some A400Ms instead. Speaking of which, the An-70 should be pushing Airbus's shit in both in Europe and abroad as we speak, but this is not a just world.
>>572524425Maybe we'll get Mig-28s as maximum shitposting from Kono.
>>572524391Yeah she was but she did have a use a massive cargo plane. Again national pride is a hell of drug when it comes to building something to basically say fuck you to someone else.>>572524603Also this something that large would be a very useful drone carrier. Or just follow the idea the US is doing now. Cargo planes as cruise missile trucks. Just think how many FP-2's you could cram into a plane that size.
>>572487341Repostan, I'll start uploading tomorrow.
>>572525473>more aggressor squadron camosWe are, look at the skin boxes 2 aggressor camos plus the digi livery one Hornet had. Also a full set of tiger meet liveries.
Are there any missions you always play with a specific planeFor example in X I always do Mt Nevera with the Mig 1.44 and in 5 I always do November City with the Yurofighter
>>572526931I wish the game had a custom livery system like forza or war thunder
>>572527163Surely that can be done with modding?What would actually be cool is an ingame paint tool to create your own skins
>>572527132I always do Shattered Skies and Mayhem with the F-14 and F-15
>>572527290Theoretically it should be possible, however we don't know how locked down the game is going to be on launch because of the multiplayer.
>>572526620The Wyvern BTFOing yellow Yellow Squadron
What's the point of a land battleship, anyway?
>>572524425Why does PA hate the F-5 so much? it's my favorite jet fighter ever, and I don't want to wait 5 years for someone to mod it in again
>>572529940the memes?
i started playing Ace Combat 5pretty good game
>>572529940its cool
>>572529940Why notWe have air ships and super subs we need to complete the set with land battleships<------Also one other reason
>>572530720It's the best one
Don’t know if anyone else posted it but Ace Combat 4 ost is now on Spotify & Apple Music.
>>572533079i like the varied missions but i don't like the fact that you only get one special weapon per aircraft and the fact that sometimes you have to manage your ammo
Whatever happened to project wingman? I thought they were gonna release more stuff for it with the snoy money
>>572536754When's the last time someone pulled a 'take the money and run' tactic and used that money to keep making that thing they ran from?
>>572536754there will be two (2) mainline Ace Combat titles in the same timespan it took PW to still fail on releasing their kickstarter backer artbook
>>572536754>mostly just post-release toozers about some stuff here and there (the main thing that springs to mind for me was a MiG-15 toozer image)>also murmurs about a conquest mode rework though I don't have the details on that, if that was ever a thing>then Frontline 59 drops out of nowhere; new campaign is neat but it lacks a bunch of the stuff that was being thrown around before>then radio silence>i think some odd days before this year's PW release anniversary, between all of his shit takes on twitter, FAN mentions that he (and arby as well iirc) consider PW to be feature-complete and to not expect a big anniversary update, while still being wishy washy on if they're done with developmentIf they were just upfront and dead honest that PW is a done and dusted project that everyone has moved on from, I'd be perfectly fine with it - the product was made to spec, people bought it, anything after that is a bonus.This leading on by the nose with teasers that never amounted to anything is just rough, and I'm not surprised that people are infuriated by it.>oh. also the artbook.>i forgot about the fucking artbook, holy shit that thing is in fucking limbo at this point with how much they've been dragging their feet with it.
>>572536754This year for real (for sure (again))
>>572536754They technically did, if you count porting Frontline 59 to PC and also borking the whole fucking game with that update. The Mercenary mode achievement on Steam is broken from what I remember, you have to downgrade the game's version for it to count or something.>>572538209Hell Comic Anon will probably finish At Skies' Edge before that happens.>>572538430It's funny because I think them being practically radio silent is the right call, if they are still working on anything. Honestly I don't even care about the extra planes or the artbook, I just want a yes or no answer about whether the game is still being worked on so people can move on. Good fucking game marred by shit PR handling, many such cases in the indiespehre.
>>572538806>Honestly I don't even care about the extra planes or the artbookthe extra planes is one thing, but the artbook is something that actually really should be dealt with considering it was part of their kickstarter campaign, and thus people put down actual money in expectation of a product
>>572538963I guess I should say it doesn't affect me personally, rather than just not caring. I could have sworn it was cancelled a few years ago but if not, yeah they need to honor what they said they'd do.
Its a shame the PW fandom quickly became home to obnoxious redditor podpeople who believe that everything AC8 is doing is only due to the former's existence
>>572540826And this inconveniences you how?
>>572542254Seeing retards who think PW invented the concepts of multi weapon loadouts and flying airship enemies in the arcade fighter jet genre is grating.
>>572542789Stop reading YouTube comments you dumbass. These cretins are astoundingly easy to avoid.
>>572542789I think it's time to stop reading people's opinions if this is how you are.

/wtg/ is deranged
>>57254664190% of the threads on this board arei don't care
>>5725271324 i use the su37 for “Escort”, typhoon for “breaking arrows” which is my favorite mission in the whole series.5 use the nighthawk for “Solitaire” the radar and picture taking mission, and on free mission I like using the hawk for the first four or five missions. And the f14d or mig 31b for “Blind Spot” the spoofed cargo shootdown.Zero I use the Mitsubishi F1 for mission 2 and sometimes 4a.I got many more. I find that Zero it is marginally more difficult to use lower tier planes for mercenary campaign runs (which makes sense)
ac7 characters voice lines like count, tsunderedog and lunch caster are so funny im afraid we wont get characters as good as these in ac8
https://x.com/EtouShizuku/status/2071973961249005741report from a taiwanese AC fan who got to play the demoGraphics1.Beautiful, platform is Play Station 5, no major graphics difference except shadow, minor jaggies, while graphic mode gets significant low frame drop.2.Detailed cockpit and ejection seat (Wingman dashboard included).3.Explosive effect same as 7.4.Flare effect reminds me Gracemeria.5.Cloud resolution is lower than expected.6.Kono-san joked that with his current eyes condition, he couldn't tell the difference between screenshot and reality.Sound1.Warning, lock-on, almost all sound effects get overhaul redesigned, more intense.2.They did a really good job about gun, not so noised, but heavy.3.A-10 got aggressive sound effect.4.Queen Flight Leader: Kate Evans, feels more reliable with ENG VA.5.Tasha (VA:Chika Anzai) has almost same performance with Chisato in Lycoris Recoil, but a little husky.Gameplay1.I chose Typhoon, F/A-18C and A-10, they all feel different with each others! Air-brake makes flight experience like never before, enhanced part slots vary to model.2.Two options in setting about view, player don't have to hold look button during combat anymore, but field of view kinda too small.3.We got 50% more flares.4.Standard missile way more effective than 7, UGB is impressive, not need to enhanced it; gun power is slightly inferior to 6, hitbox size between holy trilogy and 6.5.Two missiles to take out a tank, two missiles+some leads to finished a frigate.6.AA posed a serious threat, while SAM doesn't.7.Frigate got unmarked AA, still no ECM for cruiser, destroyer, like 6.8.Collision damage decreases, DON'T rush with tunnel, bumpy than before.
I don't get what's Hamilton's deal.
I wonder if they'll ever start using european warship designs instead of copypasting american and russian ones
>>572547323>better MSL than 7, better GUN than 7, two SP.W slotsMultiplayer is gonna be mayhem.
>>572547323i need that tasha in my room right now.>1.Warning, lock-on, almost all sound effects get overhaul redesigned, more intense.oh godCAUTION, PULL UP intensifies!>5.Cloudresolution is lower than expected.im sure it can be fixed with a few .ini tweaks
>>572547773it does seem to confirm that there's a performance mode that cuts back graphics rendering for higher framerates tho, good news for people on lower tier hardware
>>572547458His deal is that he's a fucking retard who thought the Grey Men wouldn't hang him out to dry the second they got their way. He's a useful idiot through and through.
find someone who praises you as much as Huxian praises trigger.
>>572547323>3.We got 50% more flares.>5.Two missiles to take out a tank, two missiles+some leads to finished a frigate.>6.AA posed a serious threat, while SAM doesn't.Interesting that frigates got a slight health buff from 7, I wonder if other naval targets are also tankier this time around. I also wonder how much damage missiles are going to do on Ace difficulty since I assume these other early access previews are also playing on Veteran(?) like the North American version was. An abundance of flares and low SAM threat level feels like it implies more missiles in the air than 7, but actually dangerous AA reminds me of the PS1/PS2 games where AA would chew you up and a single missile hit would kill you.
>>572549717I think AA guns got a buff because that landship mission showcased the return of enemy flak fire, so theres a slight denial of area effect to AA now
>>572547323>Cloud resolutionMy eyes aren't that great anymore I won't notice plus I'm not playing on a 4K screen it'll look great regardless to me.>Kono Getting old sucks and it never gets better only more suck and fail>Warning, lock-onLike the older games then?>A-10 got aggressiveExcellent>ChisatoThose times I play in JP its going to be fun>UGB is impressive, not need to enhanced itMust have switched to UGBL for 8But you can never have enough dakka it shall be enhanced>AA posed a serious threat, while SAM doesn't.Its like they are testing out ideas for a prequel game set in Strangereals 50's or 60's
They got a pop up store nowwish this image was larger but still has some nice stuff
Player Liberation of Gracemeria and absolutely loved it. Played the latest ace combat and didnt like it at all. Is Wings of Theve a continuation of that one?
>>572552279they're all a continuation of each other
>>572552279And what didn't you like about it?
is there a retard-proof guide for emulating the ps2 games?
>>572555163Download pcsx2, sail the 7 seas for the bios, sail the 7 seas for the iso. It’s nearly perfect emulation.
>>572556179what about the PS4 remaster version?
>>572556706AC5 was the only one re-released on PS4 to date, and it was a pre-order bonus that is no longer available for purchase.The MEGA in the OP has the ISOs for all the games if sourcing those is what's tripping you up.
>>572557438>megaill never understand retards uploading/backing up big files on mega when it has a download limit every 6 hours.
>>572547315I think Noise is going to be unintentionally funny, just a feeling.
