So how is MGS4? worth the money or should I just save for AC8 instead?
Don't start a new game even if its just a old version made new, 8 is one month out just wait for it.

>>579147035my disappointment is immeasurable
>>579146885>gay score attack pvp again

>>579148761The BIGGEST gay score attack pvp in the history of the series again!
>>579146885But nobody plays tdm on 7there has to be something new
>>579148761>>579148993>>579150546alpha and bravo are flying in formation together, retards
>>579150567so... pve?
>>579150694yes
>>579146885God, why do I have a feeling whatever this'll be will either make or break the future of AC?
>>579150907ac is kind of always hanging on a thread
For real can't we get a PvP match oriented around destroying the enemy team's objectives on the ground? You know, like an actual war?
>>579151059wow if only there was a 10 minute long video about this topic coming in 3 days
>>579151153a man can dream
>>579150907Uh it won't AC has always be a SP game first with MP modes even the simple 1v1 split screen fights as just an extra.
>>579151326Hope it doesn't attract a new vermin audience then.
>>579151059>PvP works less in Ace Combat than it does in Gears of War, and that's saying a lot.
>>579151395Such people will only hang around for a week or month before moving on to the next game. The whales will keep being whales in MP. Inside a year it'll all be back to normal once again.
>>579151395"HI, ACE COMBAT FAN 99 HERE, WELCOME TO MY VIDEO ON THE GREAT STUFF COMING IN THIS MONTH'S BATTLE PASS!!!!"
I was thinking bad thoughtsMultiplayer escort missionsMultiplayer extraction missions to craft special weaponsMultiplayer king of the hill but with planesMultiplayer capture the flag but with planes
>>579151781All of that sounds awesome thoughbeit.

>>579153662while collecting coins yeah!
>>579153662>>579153767Probably Spyro or something did it first but this comes to mind https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nEJB0pcJS3M
>>579150907Infinity kept the series alive between 6 and 7, didn't it?
>>579154164they're referencing ring battle from ace combat infinity
>>579153448I'm gonna need you to stop posting for a while
>>579151059What, like Capital Conquest?
Maybe I'm misremembering but I don't recall AC7 getting marketed half as hard
>>579160364AC7 was legitimately one meeting away from getting shitcanned due to development troubles they didnt have time or money to market anything.Fortunately, that same game is on track to hit 8 million copies by the end of this year, which means Bamco felt safe giving them way more marketing money.

Ace combat online is also supposed to have a narrative focused around mercenary pilots, just like ACI.You can already see corporations new to the series from the handful of teaser videos out there.
>>579161968So are we gonna be able to pick which companies we do work for? That might be kinda fun.
I just need something to keep me playing for two hours every day.
>>579161968FInally leting Gründer Industries rest
>>579163817Grunder gets dissolved after AC7Osea works on a 3 strike basis when it comes to coups
>>579163817Now lets see if there's no belkan fuckers involved in this war
ACX is brutal and underrated.
>>579161968cool logo!
is Sky Crawlers actually fun
>>579161968OPERATION ETERNAL LIBERATIONIN... YOU GUESSED IT, USEA
>>579176694We're all set to go...You ready?
>>579176554It's okay, I'd call it fun but not a must-play. I played with tilt controls which made it more memorable but definitely more frustrating. It's neat to see gameplay more focused around guns instead of missiles (and different kinds of guns, cannons, shotgun-like flechettes, air burst rounds). There's also an early version of AC7 style upgrade parts.Story you would hope to be good with the movie tie in, but the pace of cinemas feels kinda slow. Not a surprise the movie didn't do great either.Overall the quality and level of polish feels noticeably less than the actual ace combat games too.I'd still rank it way above Assault Horizon though.
What's the Ace Combat for tanks?
>>579191859There isn't one. Unfortunately, all the developers with the autism required to make a tank game that has everything correctly modelled are also going to have obsessive detail with their mechanics and suck all the fun out of it.
Did Belka/Schroider/Grunder actually do anything wrong in AC7? Wasn’t the drone stuff just strictly business? Its not like they manipulated Erusea’s chud officer corps to go to war.
>>579191859>>579192027Yeah there's very fee fast, fun, arcade-ish tank games and none with a realistic theme. There are a scant few PS1/N64 tank games that are more sci-fi.It's a desperately loose fit but I'm gonna say Valkyria Chronicles.
>>579191859Panzer Front, maybe?>>579192298I think the implication is that they were specifically seeking out and selling to those who oppose Osean interests.
>>579164590kek
>>579191859Girls und Panzer
I've been so excited these last couple of days that I haven't been able to sleep properly, which is bad because my main strategy relied on sleeping more than usual to make the wait feel shorter.
>>579191859The closer you can get are the Scorpion sections during Halo CE and Halo 2, unfortunally.As >>579194246 stated, valkyria chronicles is pretty cool but it's a very very loose fit.>>579200835Unfortunally the GuP game is TOO silly
>>579181798ayy lmao
New aircraft looks cool. Did the Ace Combat booth at Gamescom have a strict no recording policy? Because I feel like nothing else new came from it. No gameplay, or commentary, nothing. Just this one shitty screen grab of a new plane.
>>579214516ADF-11 with a different lower body? Note the wingtips on the "canards"
>>579214516XFA Game prototype maybe?
fuck all other planes I want the ADLER backthe machine gun menace was so fun in Infinity
I just want the F-5 family back
surely they won't make you pay for the Nosferatu a second time,right?
>>579221071you can pay for battlepass levels or grind 300h for it, take your pick
Call me a doomposter but I'm genuinely kinda worried about AC8's MP.Namco hasn't delivered a good MP experience in quite a while at this point, the microtransaction store is surely going to have its own paid premium currency which will, if I had to guess, paywall stuff like the classic skins like the ACZ ones and new ones in the future too. (Without even mentioning that it'll most likely be how you get customization for your lobby character).While I don't mind the idea of having new planes be released with every battlepass, with a variety of decent gamemodes (like co-op strikes) this could be a somewhat okay experience IF supported over the long term.What I'm worried about is that the unending glazing of Infinity has told them "oh, people want ACI again!" without taking in that most of ACI's content immediately becomes unfun if someone pulls out a single overpowered super custom exclusive variant of a plane, which we might be getting with stuff like contracts and blueprints teased in some of the earlier material. So even in co-op, you're gonna get someone in a Su-37 Rena which is just gonna decimate everything, leave nothing for you and make you feel useless, just like in ACI.I hope to be wrong about this

>>579226831>>579228263Although that said I think an easy bandaid fix would to just remove the idea of special aircraft, which judging by Pixy's Morgan being a separate plane is out the window.
>>579226831Metaslaves gonna metaslave. We'll still have /aceg/ lobbies and house rules to fall back on if all else fails.
>>579226831I totally understand what you are saying, this said i also play helldivers with /hdg/There are the normal lobbies where people obviously metaslave, but most of the times there are themed lobbies around concepts and fun, so much that i don't even play with pubbies anymore and always wait or create a lobby with /hdg/I'm sure /aceg/ would and will do even better
>>579230312We already have a decent established precedent for it with the shootout lobbies for 7 and back in the Infinity days we'd have lobbies running pretty frequently. Especially during events.
>>579161968Two Ace Combat games in one. I think I might like this. They might try to adapt ACI for Strangereal at first then continue its story.

>>579238581>CLAAAAAAAAAAAAARKSOOOOOOOOON! WHERE IS MY SUPERWEAPON?!
Based or mental retardation.
>>579240631Just an unoriginal YouTube comment.
>>579240631Worse, a tourist
>>579240631PWfags have been grasping at straws since its become very obvious RB is completely done with the game and FAN is too busy trying to worm his way into every new indie arcade fighter jet videogame announced
>>579226831My prediction: It's gonna be marginally better than AC:I in that if you nolife the game, you can get to the endgame plane in a couple weeks, since you're not capped by fuel. So at least "everybody" will have the end game plane.BUT obviously the battle passes will be a big part. They are going to power creep with a new "best" plane every month or two. Hopefully they are smart enough not to start us out on fictional planes so you still see realistic stuff in the lobby. Or maybe planes are more of a skin, and upgrade parts are the real power creep.It's really gonna come down to this:>Are paid battle pass planes way better than free ones?>Does it take FOREVER to grind out good stuff without spending money?They can easily fine tune this to their liking both at launch and as new passes come up. So its really up to how much Bamco cares about short term profit vs building their brand. God help us if we see some outside studio credited with multiplayer support. YMMV with how much you nolife.
>>579244367>Hopefully they are smart enough not to start us out on fictional planesthe very first plane on the premium BP is the pixy morgan brah that shit has sailed
>>579215309To huge to be that, Its a new plane that has taken design cues from it.
Try to be more... sensuous
>>579238581>>579239398We're going to have make a new cool wall once we see what new planes await in 8
>>579248926AlrightThis new plane is the love child of a wet wild and dirty dirty night flight between an ADF-11 and an X-02S over the skies of Fort Greys one summer night.
>>579240631A secondary who has only played PW. Common.
I just tried to join the /aceg/ lobby. Disconnected immediately. Did I do something wrong?
>>579255185Nevermind, I think it was just my connection

i hope we get a Three Strikes skin
>>579262761That'll be 20 dollars
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFuEcpPlNtIWhat were they thinking?
>>579262761I hope we get idol skins.>>579266719I hope we get idol skins for reasonable prices.
why do i feel like there's going to be an ingame sonic collab at some point
>>579248793Raven is huge but I see what you mean, the canards sit way further behind the cockpit than on the ADF-11
>>579214516Is it just me, or is it carrying 2 missiles on each hardpoint?
>>579282080Multiple ejector racks have been around for a while now. If that's implying MSTM, all the better.
I'm a newcomer that started with AC7I just started AC4 to see what all the hype's about. But the missions are so short. I just shoot 6 targets and the mission's over. That's it??
>>579285206Bro mission 5 is a score attack mission. Half of the game's missions are score attack missions actually. But the non-score attack missions are all rather short affairs, especially the first four.
>>579285206If you don't care about ranks, yes they are short.
What are the canon aircraft of each protagonist?
>>579288424when in doubt just use F-22, this series isn't that inspirational anyway, only AC8 breaks the traditional by going F-18 instead
>>579228263Look man, there's a difference between "This specific combination of parts and weapons is slightly better than other options and gives me a slight competitive advantage" and "This $DLC plane wipes the entire map with a single button press and is clearly superior to everything else in the game and requires zero effort or skill".The former is unavoidable, the latter is a huge dev mistake. The former is also completely fine and only "ruins" your game if you're compfag that cares about some rating number while the latter just legitimately ruins the game for everyone.
>>579286739>>579285206This is honestly something that's always bugged me about Ace Combat mission design, destroying the mission-critical TGTs ends the mission prematurely. So you're encouraged to intentionally ignore the last TGT while you go after other targets if you want a better rank.I wish it worked more like old school space sims(Tie Fighter, Freespace) where completing your primary objective let you dock/hyperspace away and end the mission but didn't force you to do it immediately, you could stay and rack up points if you wanted. Ace Combat could do this with the return line. If you cross the return line (or land on an in-mission airfield or carrier) after the main objective is complete the mission ends but you can choose to stay and clean up other targets if you want to(for player convenience the mission would automatically end once they destroy all available targets so they don't have to fly over an empty map).
>>579288424Look on the cover art. It's usually that, unless it's a French cover, in which case it's a Rafale.
>>579288424I know that for AC7, Trigger goes>F-16>F-15C>F-22A
>>579288424AC4 -> Mobius 1 -> F4E -> F-22AC5 -> Blaze -> F5E -> F14AAC0 -> Cipher -> J35J Draken -> F-15CACX -> Gryphus 1 -> F4E -> F22A AC6 -> Talisman -> F15EAC7 -> Trigger -> F-16C -> F-15C -> F-22A
>>579276573an Anya Flanker and a Lilja Gripen would be cool
>PA expects us to operate Su-33s on a modernized EssexI better see clipping issues.

>>579282080It looked like the drone SP weapon to me. But this time there's 4. Now that would be cool. 4 lock on drones, I want that.

The Sotoa/Shadows motif is so good.

At first glance I thought Kono's pic of the flight out of Germany was an AC8 city with a trippy megastructure.
