/aceg/ is ruined, RUINED
I still think the biggest flaws of Ac8 are its cover art and subtitle
>>584763927toasting in an epic bread
>>584764072i think the cover is fine, but yeah something like "false wings" would've been a much better title
wtf is this, jets?
is there a better scan of aces at war 2029 than the e-hentai one or the chinese one?
>>584764345ace combat 8: wings of wax
>>584764072Subtitles is fine. But the cover art definitely needs more 'oomph'.
Playing 0 and 4 again really makes me appreciate how harder dogfighting is without the *teleports behind you* feature that is high G turns
I don't think I enjoy online very much. They should import those score attack missions from 7/8 sp and quadruple the enemy counts
>>584764423Careful Icarus.
https://x.com/Leon89674803/status/2111035595548135686
>>584764072Nah.Kbm control just terrible and almost not exist.Squaddies are immortal but they have literally 0 dmg w/o special and you can't set specials and modules for them. Also can't just set target and say "land special here".Difficulty spikes is insane and few missions can't be done in first run. Mission 5 and 15 literally req restarts or meta knowledge.Flight model is too arcadey.And cutscene when open new modules is most retarded things probably. I know which modules next to this one, big thanks, fucking stop with wasting my time.
>keep ending up as the designated bomber because everyone wants to spam LAAMboats
>>584765108You got a little pad in Farbanti? I should come down some time!
>>584765252>End up running A2A with fucking 4aam because nobody wants to give air coverI wish we could trade lobbies, anon.
Are 7's DLC planes any fun? I already 100%'d it forever ago with the season pass but never got around to getting the planes that came out after.
>>584765252Ain't that a good thing (in warfare)? Enemies will be too busy to go after your ass
>>584765489None of them are really game changing, but Nosferatu with ADMM is neat for how many missiles it can put out and the Darkstar's speed + PLSL can be funI couldn't really recommend paying full price for any of them unless you really, really like a particular plane
>>584765571Usually it ends up with my teammates sucking at holding off the enemy team and me dodging 2-3 player missiles while bombing shit
>>584765250>Mission 5 and 15 literally req restarts or meta knowledge.I literally beat both first try on Elite, I think you're just severely lacking in the skill department.
>>584765828Yeah-yeah.Now put off your fancy joystick and do it with keyboard instead.Ooh, you can't? Look like you need git gud too.
>>584765914I don't have a fancy joystick, I have a $20 gamepad.>do it with keyboardFunny thing is I probably could, but why would I want to? These games have always played best on a gamepad and gamepads are not expensive.
>>584765252At least you don't have to larp as Tasha because the enemy team are retarded Sotoans.
>>584765571No. The laamniggers will chase AI all game and let the enemy team tackle you unopposed.Swap the ranges on LAAM and SAAM
>>584765489the normal planes feel like more of the base roster, there's a few novel spws here and there, like the FAEB on the f-15, the shinden is the best rocket mount in the game, the 5th gen fighter™ is the best LACM boat, the f-2 super kai has access to both LASM and the morgan's IEWS which can be fun in missions with resupplies, but unless your planefu is in there you're not missing much fb-22 my belovedthe highlights would be the top gun pack for the darkstar and the nosferatu so you can cheese missions with the ADMM or its akimbo railguns
Reminder that most pilots in AC8 weren't even alive or sentient yet when Ulysses happened
>>584766104Just keep your throttle pinned and drop the occasional UGBL when you happen to be flying over a group of targets. You can genuinely spend the entire match both killing ground and dodging missiles. And still score like 150k.Unless you're against FA-36s with SASMs, then you're fucked and absolutely need ally assistance.
>>584766159>Tasha doesn't even recognise the Newfield Island crater for what it isZoomers, man
>>584766159>>584766362The damn tragedy is such old news they have an energy drink named after it.
I'm actually a little surprised with how much fun I'm having with AC2.All the branching missions with decent variety, the ace/squad hunting with corny movie references, the extra mode that completely changes your plen progression. I just unlocked XFA-27 and it's damn fun even without special weapons. Enemies don't feel completely retarded either. They'll brake when you're going full throttle to fuck up your aim and make you overtake, actively circle around to make missiles harder to hit, and some do this funny thing where they drag you to higher altitude to try and make you stall out.My biggest complaint is missile range/tracking being completely dogshit, but at the same time it feels like there's some finesse to aiming your shots right and peeling off instead of just barfing them out as soon as you lock on.Huge step up compared to Air Combat
>>584766405ok but then you have US with a chain of convenience stores named after the terrorist attack
>>584765974>Funny thing is I probably couldNo, you can't.At first, you already did this missions so you have meta knowledge.At second, even if you didn't kbm have no throttle scale so you will fail really hard before memorize pattern of spawns for mission 5 and trajectory in mission 15. That need restarts.Git gud, what else can be saided.
Coster really should have had a Pixy arc in AC8 where he grows increasingly more mentally unstable questioning what this entire war was for and the need for borders. Player should be given a choice to put him down or let him drop V2 on Sotoa.
add>>584766542And i forgot to mention terrible bad keyboard aiming - that naturally, since we have only -1, 0 and 1 positions - and terrible bad mouse aiming since devs put literally no efforts in this.
We need a quick message for "Are you fucking retards even TRYING?"
>>584766542>kbm have no throttle scale so you will fail really hard before memorize pattern of spawns for mission 5 and trajectory in mission 15These have genuinely fuck all to do with throttle scale, you don't need anything but 100% throttle and 100% airbrake. Since I use PS2-like controls(throttle on bumpers, yaw on triggers) I already have no throttle scale.You don't need to memorise the pattern of spawns for mission 5, you just need to LOOK AT YOUR RADAR and know how to efficiently clear both ground and air targets without wasting time.You don't need to memorise shit for mission 15, you just need to LOOK AT YOUR RADAR and position yourself between the ships you're protecting and the giant green circles.
>>584765914Just cleared it on pilot in 7 mins with s rank. I can probably S rank this this on elite with keyboard.The important thing for this mission is probably just having a high enough top speed to chase down the birds and the patience to stick on their ass. It's not limited by control scheme, I didn't have to high G turn once.
>>584766717<< Yo buddy, are you retarded? >>
>>584765684>>584766137Thanks anons. I'll probably wait for the Fall sale and then think about it some more
>>584766717for that i just use "i don't understand"
Sotoa did nothing wrong
>>584765316>>584765316Oh you know I got a place down there
anyone own any of the AC Model Kits?
>>584767016I got two Morgans still in their boxesI physically can't put them together but maybe one day I'll ask someone else to do it for me
>>584766717>>584766813squawk 1337 and ident
>>584766929
pomf2.lain.la/f/ztxfiujc.mp4i havent played this game on mkb before but i cleared m5 on elite real quick while fumbling to figure out controlsbecause youre a faggot
>>584767619Based
>>584766489Lots of nuke references too. I want an energy drink named after Sherman's March.
>>584761748If we continue applying even more realism, notching's fucking useless when facing anything more advanced than the base F/A-18 and even then it's negated by AWACS presence.
>>584767016I have one for my fav superplane, expensive and small as hell
What is the strangereal equivalent of this?
I drew this nonsense, a sun!
>>584767619Well done buddy. Wonder what the next complaint will be, maybe WELL ACTUALLY YOU NEED TO ONLY USE THE STARTER PLANE AND NEVER ISSUE WINGMAN COMMANDS AND USE THE MOUSE TO FLY INSTEAD OF THE KEYBOARD or some shit like that.
>>584767938alright
>>584767915Every side uses every plane so we might have to wait for GR vs Neucom>>584767938CuteThey're never gonna let poor Rex live that one down
>retards bringing LAAMs to Alicorn>we failUgh
>>584765828>>584767619>pomf2.lain.la/f/ztxfiujc.mp4I played 7 exclusively with m+kb and what really worked for me was WASD + QE for pitch, roll and yaw, and my mouse for small adjustments. spacebar to fire, m1 for accelerate and m2 for decelerate, some other keys I can't remember. 7 is prefectly playable with m+kb and I even did quite well in it's multiplayer I haven't played 8 yet because >1660Ti
>>584767938Draw Pinky's legs all the way so you can trigger that anon that hates how she hikes up one pant leg
>>584767938>When your little sister finds something to tease you about
8AGM refuses to lock more than two missiles on to any one target.That's still one too many but it's better than spamming as many as it can.
What if Ace Combat deducted points based on how much munitions you used like Armored Core does?
>>584769080Joint Assault did that already
>>584769080EW standard missile spam becomes a lot less fun
Do you think Kate smokes? she looks like the kinda person who is stressed enough to smoke at least half a packet a day
>>584769263I fucking hope not
>>584769263She definitely drinks 4 cups of coffee a day.
>>584769263She prefers to smoke Sotoans instead.
>>584766159>Baxter is old enough to have seen the usean coup, the Ulysses impact and two Erusean invasions
Should I replay the campaign in higher difficulty or get S ranks in all the difficulty I played in first?
>>584769263skin too clean and voice too clear to be an apparent smoker, maybe a lite smoker during super rare occasions? maybe a cigarette after sex kinda gal
>>584769447Higher diff automatically rewards all lower diff S rank medals in this title, just play Ace if that's what you want
>>584769469>maybe a cigarette after sex kinda galThat made her a 20 a day girl after she hooked up with Rex.
>>584769380>continental civil war in 1998>Ulysses in 1999>Erusean chimpout in 2003-2005>Erusean insurgency in 2006>Erusean insurgency 2.0 in 2014>Erusean chimpout 2.0 in 2019>Kessler syndrome in 2020>Sotoan chimpout in 2029Baxter is like those guys that lived through Europe's convulsions from 1914 to 45 straight.
>>584769540I like where your head is at, but realistically if they are on base or hanger, they probably have to go to a designated area to smoke so they'd probably go a couple rounds before making the commitment to go outside to smoke.
>started flying the EA-6B in TDM>other team starts scoring sub 2k or 0 pointsoh noam i a bad guy?
>>584769380Baxter is an elder zoomer
>>584769263She's probably too health conscious for that, considering she wears a brace literally all the timeI bet she might try one after serious emotional distress like losing her squad though
>Shadow 22 is a millennial How does that make you feel?
>>584769709Yep
>>584769695Married couples typically have their own house near the base.>>584769872Nah she still wouldn't smoke. Doesn't want Coster and Tasha picking up bad habits.
>>584769709Have you endlessly followed a guy keeping on their six the entire time toying with them and when he finally manages to break free dunk on them with a PSM and shoot them down yet?
>>584769925She'd be at the far end of the Endurance in tears, and someone would offer her a smokeThey'd get through a whole heartfelt conversation before Tasha popped her head in and Kate threw that cig so far out into the ocean the Triumphant wouldn't be able to catch it
>>584770498Should have been a scene where she is on her own and Rex goes to comfort her. She just leans on his shoulder having a heartfelt conversation finding comfort with Rex. Scene ends with her trying to have a smoke but Tasha interrupts them so she throws the cig off the side.
>>584769887A matter of interpretation i'd say
>>584770716Tasha should also have been given a surprise cuddle by Kate when she interrupted who would be confused but happy to be of comfort.
>>584769263>SmokesShe has persistent injuries and always has a tired, glazed stare, she's a painkiller girl.
>>58476701672! 72! 72!
>>584771482kekI felt it was a missed opportunity for her to dunk on him with a PSM and for him to become overly focused on trying to shoot her down because of it.
>player named Harling SlayerKek
>>584771769Excited to have another murderer with you?
Is Rex cute?
>>584771838YEAAAA
>>584771847Yes I am

Why are some specific shots locked to 60fps despite not being prerendered or a cinematic.
Because you don't need more than 60fps
The human eye can't see more than 30 fps anyway
24, actually
I can't see any FPS since i looked directly into a TLS
Would you be ok with having cutscenes where you can't move your view around and can't press x to shake hands if it meant the game would only be 50gbs?
>>584771847Kinda
I can't see
>>584773235Yes, but at the same time I don't want to go back to AC5-7 anime episodes
alright what the FUCK was Toprak's problem here
>>584773430It's the ace combat equilavent of a cowboy shooting a horse who can't walk anymore to save it from suffering.
>This is your new squadron emblem
>>584773492Yeah but in this case to save someone from the continued suffering that is being a Sotoan!

>>584766723>These have genuinely fuck all to do with throttle scaleIdiot, you need to match speed of 2 planes to reliably catch tail.Now i not believe you that you even played any air game aside so primitive "pew-pew" arcades.
>>584773831Just emulate throttle scale by tapping throttle at varying intervals? Have you never played a racing game ever on keyboard?
>>584773913>varying intervalsLike 10 ms every 30 ms? While still need control flying and aim?Why you that retarded?
>>584773976You don't need to be that precise
>>584773579Sol Squadron!

>>584773492>>584773648for a while I thought Tewy was referring to whoever had hit the other girl but now this line makes sense
>>584763927Whoever made this picture should've used a picture of the runway on Endurance to censor...that entrance to her "tunnel".
>>584774027Maybe i even no need to press buttons at all and autopilot will solve everything by his own?Idiot.
>>584773579I've come to the conclusion that I'm blind
>>584774263There's no autopilot in the game, you choose the buttons you press
>>5847738311. overshoot and loop2. brakeezpz
damn, did everybody have a problem looking for the sun emblem? I thought that was one of the easier missions.
Baxter you can’t say that…Also anyone got that drawing of young tewy getting queasy watching the sheep get butchered?
>>584772417>When laundry day happens on an aircraft carrier that has no safe port or furlough

>>584769263God no.
>>584773430This and "Matter of interpretation, I say" had me laughing. He might be the funniest "rival" since 04.
>SEAD F-16XL derivative The F-15E beat it for very good reasons, but part of me still wishes the F-16XL won. It's just so cool.
>>584774565I am legally blind without my glasses and I still had no trouble with the mission.because I completely missed the part about the emblem and only went for 3 cranes that were looking off along the group

>>584774934Patiently waiting for ACO to add an F-16XL which will definitely have good stats and weapons and be worth using.
I wish to change my life for Kate, I don't care she isn't real, I want to be the best for her.
>>584775215I liked the F16 B60 the most.
>>584772489Well I suppose that's a little less direct than the other countermeasure
>>584775215given that weapon loadouts are somewhat based on stuff available to the planes in reality, you'll just get UGB, multilock a2g and multilock a2a or just HCAA like in previous titles
>>584774629
>>584775329>the same as the best attacker in the gameKinda boring but it'd work, sure.
>>584775434oof
>>584774565The only way I could see someone having trouble is just from precisely controlling their plane
>>584774379There are.
>>584771919I wish we got more of anyone besides nickleback and the LRSSGI wonder what mage was doing during the lighthouse battle, could've stopped by to say hi, nice to see your name cleared trigger sorry bout what happenedspare could've shown up, huggin and muggin could've raped band dog, that would've been nicelike fuckin anything man I'm just aimlessly farming score around the lighthouse for 30 minutes we got time

It's like Shamrock turned into a completely different character for that one moment.
please tell me someone saved the Fatsia yurt meme
>>584776636Not really hard, the only difficult mission is megafloat fatsia because the pillars are TNAKY

Yeah, I'm deleting this game until they fix the performance. I wanted to replay the game but it's such a hassle.
>>584777608Downgrade your drivers, I don't remember to which.

>looking at how much my impulse purchase of a pre built from microcenter has appreciated in valueyeah that was totally planned with foresight
>tfw upgraded my shit modestly about a month before the component prices skyrocketedall according to keikaku
>>584774934The F-16XL program should have continued purely so it could be offered as an easy capability expansion/addition for nations who do not operate F-15s but do have an already-existing F-16 fleet. Like a lot of NATO.
>had to decide between an extra ssd or extra ram just before the prices skyrocketed>went with ssdWe all have regrets
>>584777967I'm running a Ryzen 5 5800X, 3060Ti, and 32 GB of RAM. I can run it on medium-high with DLSS set to balanced no problem what so ever. At worst I get some minor stuttering during cinematics, but gameplay is buttery smooth. Maybe lower your settings a bit.
>>584780012I bought the parts to build my whole computer in that exact same window of time.The price of the RAM that I bought last September has apparently increased 7x.

>>584773831>Idiot, you need to match speed of 2 planes to reliably catch tail.You really fucking don't, especially not in more modern AC games where you have high-G turns.Analogue throttle control was never necessary. The PS2 had pressure sensitive buttons but the bumpers are nowhere near precise enough to finely control throttle nor was anyone really trying to do it. At no point in any AC game was it really necessary to do anything but 100% throttle or 100% airbrake. People emulate the older games with modern gamepads that don't have pressure sensitive buttons(only triggers), use the PS2 layout, and still S rank everything on Ace with the starter plane.>Now i not believe you that you even played any air game aside so primitive "pew-pew" arcades.I've been playing flight games for 30 years. Everything from early space sims like Tie Fighter, Wing Commander, and Freespace, to serious flight sims like IL-2 1946 and DCS, cheesy WW2 flight shooters like Heroes over the Pacific or Air Conflicts Secret wars, and arcade jet games like Ace Combat, HAWX, or Airforce Delta Strike.The fact that you hyperfocus on >muh keyboard so much leads me to believe you've never played a serious sim, because those absolutely will not work on a keyboard.You are just bad at the game and should just accept that.
>>584774705Bro how did you lose to an A-6E, that thing is fucking dogshit slow. If you're getting dogpiled as an attacker try going faster. Don't slow down for more precise attacks, just drop UGBLs at max speed and accept that you might only destroy 90% of targets instead of clearing everything. The most important thing is staying alive and keeping your 3 star bonus.Do not slow down for dogfights, just use the clouds to break locks while going at top speed.
>>584781313>People emulate the older games with modern gamepads that don't have pressure sensitive buttons(only triggers), use the PS2 layout, and still S rank everything on Ace with the starter plane.oh hey, that's me!

>>5847786814k? I have a 9070 XT, 7800 X3D, and 32 gigs of RAM and the game gets 100-120 FPS in missions on a mix of Ultra and High at 1440p, FSR Quality.

Doesn't seem to be much reason to fly a fighter online unless it has LAAM. The debuff you get vs ground targets means you may as well fly a multirole which can often perform well in air-to-air combat anyway.
Feels like UE5 rolls the dice on who gets to get a good performance and who doesn't despite the similar builds.
>>584777967>>584777608Have you tried this?https://www.nexusmods.com/acecombat8wingsoftheve/mods/15
>>584763927>actually used itBASED
>>584781763because while war thunder is a glorifield gacha hamster wheel, DCS is outright a scam.Nuclear Option is real fun but i don't like the fact that it's only nu-futuristic jets>>584781687ignore my F16A and F15A please
>>584780315Unfortunately it would've required an overhaul of tooling for mass production, which would have driven up the final unit cost. Most of the NATO nations that flew the F-16 at the time probably wouldn't be willing to foot the bill without Uncle Sam.
>>584781961I have.>put the engine.ini in the app folder>lower graphics to as low as possible>lowered resolutions>reinstalled the game>reverted the graphic driver>still had issueI couldn't even play other games for some reason because I had to do all that. I really wanna replay but it's not worth the trouble.
>>584782052>ignore my F16A and F15A pleasethis nigga bombingLMAOOOOOOOOOOO
Kate's VA is cuteTasha's VA on the other hand barely looks human
>>584781873I used the random party finder earlier and someone actually had an open party hosting an emergency. If more people did that the world would be a nicer place.
My only issues with performance are due to effects, but I don't want to drop them to low...
>>584781894Maybe for Assault? For Warfare multiroles are completely pointless because you're just stealing points from your attacker.The FA-36 with SASMs is a very competent hunter(the role that goes and harrasses or kills the enemy attacker to slow down their point rate), the F-15C with SASM is a good dogfighter that can distract enemies so your attacker can freefarm, and even some jousting builds with HPAA and HCAA that can work(as long as you're not going up against a TLSnigger). Obviously you still want at least 1 LAAMboat to farm NPC air targets and put pressure on enemy players when they slow down for a dogfight.
>>584782052>DCS is outright a scam.You know very well what you're buying when you buy a DCS module. It's a cockpit simulator sandbox and everyone knows it. You may think it's shit, but it's very far from a scam.
>>584782127NEVER bombed in a fighter. Never ever.I played F15A on release (buffed R27ER and US teams winrates at 20%) and the F16A was 6xaim9l in SARH metai'm not that good

>>584782476I played one mission and decided I wasn't gonna touch it again.
>>584782425Might be, at least for TDM. Should be gigagarbage in Warfare since no attacker means you autolose.
Is Tasha an actual high schooler? Like legit underage?
>>584782652no she's 29
>>584782476Nope, because they won't let me play it.
>>584782425NahMeta A2A Harassment would be EA36, SU-57, Morgan/LAAMboat Plus whatever fighter. Ideally you'd have the first three plus a dedicated ground pounder.>>584782605The EA-36 is shockingly effective at clearing ground targets. EW + EA-36 specific missile buff means it can clear house. I've scored over 100K before just ground pounding and jumping in every now and then. That, and you still win if the enemy attacker literally can't play the game

>>584781637>>584782052Why it always RBtards?You need to learn something else aside climb and zum.
>>584782347Not me, and I'm baffled to the point of being concerned that anyone messed that up.
>>584782848Nobody has been climbing in RB for quite some time now.
>>584782753Then why does she need help with homework
>>584782652She's necessarily less than 20 since her parents couldn't have met before 2010

>>584782920she's your cute retarded daughter>>584782848arcade stats?I play ground arcade and prop arcade, but i don't like jet arcade at all
>>584782814Yeah but you're still throwing away potential points by just not having an attacker, since an uharrassed one can get 200k points or more. Also I don't think the EA-36 can handle difficulty 3 ground targets, it just doesn't have the damage and needs 2 MSL for almost everything. It just doesn't compare to the clear efficiency and points rate you get from a Fullback or Strike Eagle. >That, and you still win if the enemy attacker literally can't play the gameSure but why would you be able to shut them down so hard with that comp? Presumably one of the EA-36s is LARPing as an attacker while 2 of them go with the FA-36 to harass the enemy attacker. If the enemy has 1 EW plane to defend their attacker you won't be able to spam your SASMs at them and then you'll just die to their Morgan.
>>584782753>blood type PIECE OF SHITnice
>>584782848>arkaden low tier babeven more embarassing than the other guy
>>584782919Well in my defense i can said that i not played WT for a decade.Look like playerbase still not changed tho.
>>584782476The amount of gameplay you get per match and how you navigate the UI turned me off after 20~ matches of pve.I don't see the online really hooking anyone that wasn't there for the older iterations of it.
>>584782462People who want there to be a bad ending?
>>584783072Ofc.>>584783117I leaved this game before you even start to play it.
>>584783135>Well in my defense i can said that i not played WT for a decade.You should log in just to see what it's turned intoRemember Historical Battles?

>>584782834so are your wingmen just oblivious to the enemy's chatter? that's what it sounds like here.
>>584763927CUMHISTORIA
Do we accept Cope's voice in your head as just an experimental narrative device and leave it at that or does it mean that ghosts and the afterlife and supernatural things are real in the AC universe
>squadron is fullRIP
>>584783580>narrative deviceYes>ghostsNo
>>584783513Enemy chatter is magically broadcast to the player and only the player, I don't think anyone else is supposed to hear it unless they're specifically broadcasting on an open frequency. Even the "main character" is not hearing it in-universe, only the player is.
>>584783325It dead for a while. No place to return.>>584783347Even in "primitive" WT arcade player need to control throttle for dominance battlefield.If you know only how to climb and zoom - that you only know, judging by your claims - you won't go far.

>>584783697brutal
>>584783753Why the fuck did they just drive in circles constantly? All that did was increase theit heat.
>>584783580Narrative device, maybe they considered making a voiced protagonist but decided against it.
>>584782219Nobody willingly subjects themself to Warfare outside of the daily challenges anon. Come on now.
>>584783580"You" is AI that learning using Cope's (damaged) memories.
>>584783841>>584783868why didn't they just go into the sea? water's plenty chill
>>584783912>pays better than assault>less braindead than assaultIt's the only playable game mode as far as I'm concerned.
>>584783850I don't think they were trying to guilt trip you, it's just the culmination of all her undercooked rookie decisions. Got all her friends shot down, got the Ventus aces shot down protecting them, got herself shot down, and with no one to talk her out of it, the guilt and fear of capture was just too much.
>>584783720I'm not the Italian, I (used to) play both Realistic battle and Simulation battle. I stopped playing 3-4 years ago because I got bored of the constant grind. Fine throttle control is not that important, at most you need to cut throttle, deploy airbrake(if you have it), 50% throttle, and 100% throttle. You don't need to finesse it to like 88% throttle to perfectly match speed with your targets, most of the time you care more about maintaining maximum energy and it's better to stay at full throttle and climb if you overshoot.This is true for almost every type of flight game btw, even full-on sims like IL-2.
Idea:Mandatory English lessons for /aceg/ posters.
>>584783697>Enemy chatter is magically broadcast to the player and only the playerBut you have instances in AC8 of wingmen commenting on stuff enemies say
>>584783970How can an AI get headbutted by a sheep?
>>584783912So what, you just spam TDM/DM? Surely it's not Assault as that mode is boring as sin.
>endurance actual, this is odin actualwhat does actual mean in this context
>MVP with a SASM-only Game on Assaultgrim beyond belief
>>584784267>hello [whomever is in command on of the endurance], this is [whomever is in command of whatever odin is] speaking
>>584784267"Actual" means the highest rank person within the asset.
>>584784152And in those cases they're using an open frequency(The Shadows do this a lot). I don't remember them commenting on what the Land Battleship was broadcasting or reacting at all to Mavismen blowing her brains out.
>>584783580Supernatural, I don't expect it to become less important going forward, AC is heading straight toward a cyberpunk future but so are we, adding supernatural elements will become necessary, hopefully they don't directly go for newtypes, even if the AC7 DLC established a bit of groundwork for supernaturally exceptional individuals by introducing the concept of singularities.

Nothing against ESL anons but anyone sincerely trying to have a good faith discussion at least tries their best to type proper grammatical English. ESL shitposters on the other hand are the worst because they put zero effort into their replies as well as their English, and a not-insignificant number of them are paid to stir shit./int/ can do whatever.
>>584784168It's Copes memories.
>>584784452I don't think "singularities" are really supernatural. Analyst guy's AI said it would take 7 months to calculate the outcome of a battle between Torres and Three Strikes, and that was with 2019 hardware. By 2040 surely they could do the same calculation in like a day or maybe even a few hours.
>>584784361>>584784420coolwhy not just say commander or captain or whatever?
>>584783912I want to play warfare more but most of the time the game won't even let me. It matchmakes for a few minutes and then cancels because it can't find anyone. I haven't done today's daily because it won't let me and it's annoying. I need that gacha ticket.

>>584784531>though I pity whoever had to clean that thing outNah it was probably just a bunch of deep roasted kebab, the heat would have fried away any gooey remains and it would be too hot and dry for rot
>>584784654Radio brevity, clarity, OPSEC, interservice operations with different rank structures, speaker may not necessarily know the highest rank, many number of reasons.
>>584784625Memories cannot be headbutted by sheep anon.
>>584784531It is kinda horrifying how a little fuckass nomad country was insane enough to try to enslave the entire planet using missiles from space.
>>584784096>cut throttle, deploy airbrake(if you have it), 50% throttle, and 100% throttle50% it also a scale, you know. While in ac8 we have 600 (20% of 3k) as default value.And iirc in wt i used 30%, 80% and 110% a lot more than 50%. And constantly switch flaps in landing/battle position
>>584784654Because there are cases where you want to speak to specifically the captain even if they're not currently on deck and cases where you just want whoever is in charge at this very moment. Also different branches and different countries have wildly different structures and you don't really care about the nuance of fucking Estonian military ranks and just want whoever is in charge of whatever thing.
>>584784715>>584784757>>584784805and why is "actual" the word of choice for this meaning?something like "you're not talking to some nobody, you're talking to the actual guy in charge"?not trying to be a dick, just honestly curious what the reasoning is behind these things cause they're cool
>>584784848In memories he can be hadbutted.
>>584784796That's still like a hundred plus slow cooked Sotoans, shit probably smelt vile and made the clean up crew all vegan. Would have been better to try and push it into the ocean
>>584784718I agree to some extent, but they didn't even have ejection drill training yet. That's like not knowing how to use your brakes and joining a NASCAR race. I'd guess that them receiving their wings from Tewy also signified the completion of their indoctrination stuff, too.
>>584784934>something like "you're not talking to some nobody, you're talking to the actual guy in charge"?pretty much, you're talking to the person in command of the component, not just any random member of itI imagine it's also because it's a simple word that one can't mistake for another, which is important for clarity in radio comms
>>584784934That may well be the origin, but usually these words are chosen because they sound distinct over radio and aren't easily confused for another word, especially in other languages. Sometimes they're arbitrary.
Is that my A2A stat getting so big it overflows back to the start of the bar?
>>584784881Even worse when you realize world ending threats like this happen every ten or so years. Hell this is the second time the Space Elevator almost ended the world, fucking place is cursed
8 really needs at least 1 track that's like warning line or magic spearRise above starts nicely but then it turns into poprock
>>58478488250% is whatever you get when you leave the controls at neutral. It doesn't matter if the game displays it as 33%, 20%, 76.5% or whatever. It's the middle position of your throttle axis. If a game can go beyond 100% throttle then the max is 100%. Different games use different ways of displaying your throttle levels so it's better to use a single universal scale based on the position of your actual throttle(or stick, or trigger).
Who's the ITT actual?

>>584786169The Fullback is really a perfect Ace Combat jet.

>>584787584You can chain them forever to stay in the PSM state where you have like triple the turnspeed. Very abusable online if you have a weapon that can kill as soon as you point your nose at someone, like the TLS.

>>584783580Ghosts are real but it's not really important. If Rex didn't hear Cope it changes absolutely nothing in the story. I guess it might lessen the emotional impact of deaths if you know that your dead friends just NG+ as birds when they eat a Fox 2.
>Get bored of Warfare>Queue Assault>30 unironic minutes until it finds a match>Its the sweatiest lobby I've been in in a whileSomeone want to explain to me why the supposed PvE mode is filled with more cancer addled faggots than PvP?
>>584787362>remember that one CH-47 you downed at Hoffnung during Operation Cannibal? Well guess what...
>>584788154Assault is designed in a way to breed this. If you're not using the meta you basically don't get to play so people either adopt this or stop quieing it.
>>584787451Actually since this thing can easily oneshot fortified bunkers it should be compared to the "certain destruction" 20 psi overpressure zone of a 15kt nuke, like the one dropped on Hiroshima. And it's got a slightly larger "certain destruction" radius, but fizzles out to zero damage after that unlike a real nuke which would kill lots of extra people with just high rads or lower blast damage.
>>584780942Yes, like 15 threads back but the links have been dead for over a week or so.
>>584785749Yes cause there are people who fly canard aircraft.
>>584788154I've been playing the F-4E with UGB in assault. Somehow I am still getting MVP in lobbies full of F-15E's and MiG-31's
>>584788319Kinda. Assault punishes you for not using top tier planes while Warfare punishes you for not using the correct team comp. You can easily win warfare even if your attacker is an F-2 with UGB upgrades but you'll never win if you have 0 attackers or 2 attackers or 1 attacker and 2 multiroles that steal ground targets or no ECM plane.
>>584787210MPBM has lingering damage that goes beyond the circle tho.
>>584788460Well if PA could just give the Su-35 its LAAMs back I wouldn't have to fly the Typhoon.
>>584788787According to the database it's up to 300m, which is bigger than UGB but UGBL nukes still clear it
>>584788860Less LAAM, please
>>584788876They should really rename that thing to UGBN. >>584788960LAAMs are unironically not the problem in warfare. It's the fucking TLS. They should straight up ban LAAMs from Assault though.
>>584788860>Gives the SU-35 the LAAM but nerfs LAAM at the same time.

>>584789065I'd be fine with that. If LAAMs are still viable I'll fly the SU-35 with LAAM/6AAM, if they're not I'll switch to the Su-57 with QAAM or QAAM/HCAA as my fighter of choice. Maybe even go for the Su-33 with QAAM/HVAA(but that one has canards so I guess I am big gay).
>>584788606The F-4 Is unironically a pretty good plane. Until I got the F-15E, I used it as a bomber and was outrunning most fighters trying to chase me down, and with kitted out UGBs, you can wipe the map pretty quick
why are we suddenly dead
>>584791356The doom eminating from the online mode causing it I reckon
>>584791356Lack of memes
>>584791432
For me it's the SFFS. Shit deletes anything in Emergency Sorties
>>584791356Too busy killing Nomad nuggets.
R_N, I don't know if you got the party chats earlier but I think the Emergency Sortie crashed because of too few players. We started with four players and after one of them left the [ MISSION ABORTED ] screen popped up immediately. Sorry to take up your time, buddy.
>>584791356Because 8 is woke garbage
>>584776029I've played every Ace Combat game on keyboard and I cleared mission 5 with like 6 Lcucks left on my first runMission 15 was a bit of a dick tho
>>584791356>suddenly deadyeah about that
>>584791356Ace Combat...Ace Combat is a dead game...
>>584792279then show me its body
>>584791557>12 second reload vs 8.4 for the UGBL assuming both take power specYeah, no thanks. Also it's a bit finnicky to use and harder to just drop while zooming around at mach 2 trying to constantly dodge enemies harassing you.
>>584792316Seems like Ace Combat was downed by Three Strikes
>>584792450that's it
>>584791557The straight white man's choice. UGBLs are for frail dick slurping fags
Soo which one of top3 i should buy first?I think su57?
>>584792656Whichever one you like best, it doesn't really matter.
For what purpose
>>584792656>the eternal airplane>f-16 (2)>the flat fuckthe choice is obvious
>>584792656EA36 is the only one worth the cost.
>>584792656They're all kinda shit online so buy whichever one you think looks best.
>>584792863At that point they should just let you use campaign wingmen AI and commands
>>584792863>johnbaxter>leecoster>emmatasha
>>584791356>Drawfriends replaced with AI slop>8's online is mediocre>Half the general was comatose playing the campaign and asks the most retarded questions>No one plays 7 or 8 togetherCouldn't tell you
>>584792904Isn't EA-36 2nd to last rank? Last rank are the 3 5th gens(22, 35, 57).
>>584791356Posting a Kate in the hopes of reviving the thread
Our economy relies on sluts like us
>>584793058In terms of cost, they're all 60 gold dossiers to upgrade. If you meant singleplayer, just go with which one you think looks the best.
>>584793041no i meant in that moment specificallypeople were posting every minute and then we got 20 minutes of silenceit just seemed weird is all
>>584793249Yes but you need to max your pilot for those 3 which is 50 sorties from the 2nd to max rank. So top 3 should refer to the 3 planes you get at max rank.
>>584774565I didn't but that's the joy of not playing with DLSS on to hallucinate a sun on the side of the boats.
>>584793264I understand what your meme is trying to say but you really need to work on your English.
>>584793343It doesn't matter at the end of the day though. By the time you level up any 60 cost plane, you'll be max pilot level anyway.
Can I get the no damage medal from free missions or does it have to be a full playthrough?
>>584793663Full playthrough
>>584793541That's just not true. I have a lvl 17 Typhoon(so max unlock, just need plane XP) alongside a lvl 20 Mirage and lvl 20 Fullback(2 mid costs take as many golden blueprints as 1 high cost) and I'm still 60 sorties away from max rank(4000/5000 XP at 3rd to last rank).
>>584782131Yeah, Tasha's VA is definitely a weirdo, also agender. Kinda ruins Tasha's appeal.
>>584793492I didn't make it
>>584792420Your bomb does 99 damage in a best case scenarioMy bomb does 40 * 16 damage at a best case scenario. Even if I miss let's say, 3 bombs that's still 40 * 13 = 520 damage.SFFS is a bit harder to use but it absolutely mogs UGBL in emergency sorties. In assault warfare I think UGBLs are better as you don't need to fully commit to lining up your shot and they're the better fire and forget solution.>>584792557I like both desu, each have their uses.>>584792656SU-57 > F-22 > F-35
>>584791356A good chunk of us have reached lvl 100 with the battlepass online as well as finished Ace difficultly. Not much to talk about except shit on Sotoans.
>>584793858Sounds like you party up for emergency sorties.
>>584793968>>584792420Forgot to add image like a retard.TL;DR - SFFS better at hitting Emergency Sorties and inflated HP targets (Alicorn especially) - UGB better at hitting spread out and medium HP Targets (Warfare)
>>58479409625 Scrambles and 19 E-sorties out of 190 total sorties. E-sorties are at the expected 10%, scrambles are a bit higher.I have joined scrambles and e-sorties from other people in the squadron but I've also shared my own pops almost every time.
Evaded like hell and avoided his attention long enough to close in on the TLS Morgan only for him to turn on ECM. Those faggot Jap console players are learning.
it's not that i'm leeching off you guys' emergency sortiesit's just that i don't really get any of my own
What emotion is being conveyed?
>>584794259I just don't like how the SFFS works for warfare, but yeah, it's pretty nutty at wrecking targets with inflated HP like ships in warfare or TGTs in E-sorties. Still wouldn't take it even on maps that feature ships like Artiglio port, just not reliable enough at killing diff 3 tanks and howitzers, you need to overlay multiple cluster bombs to kill them and the long reload makes double drops pretty painful. I'd rather take an F-2 with UGB/LASM.
>>584794925I'm reminded of that analogue horror vid

>>584794925>Do you ever fart in your cockpit and it was so good that your stomachache is gone but now the place stinks?
>>584793343>F-22 QAAMs for funny missile homing. Gets faster firing gun than Su-57. Who the fuck would take 4AAMs or XSDBs in online.>Su-57Also QAAMs, HCAAs if you like those. LACMs as well I guess but as a fighter it does less damage to ground targets.>F-35LACMs and Multirole means it can fight ground targets pretty well. HCAAs are cool too, though not meta. 8AGMs if you want I guess.>FA-36SASMs are more meta than QAAMs thanks to splash damage, and it'll oneshot AI planes with a good hit. HPAAs are an option if you want to trade splash for higher damage and more ammo.>EA-36IEWS shenanigans are very meta. Raw stats not as good as the others but there's only two other Jammer options and ECM or ESM is locked to level 20 for the others, so the EA-36 is the most immediately accessible for fucking with enemies and helping out allies at the same time.A2G weapons are basically irrelevant for these besides the F-35, since air targets are worth more and you're better off just taking an attacker for ground based maps. Game and Barricader match up well against the other three solely because of SpW selection.
>>584795236F-22 doesn't get the air to air bonus ability so it's just a worse Su-57 essentially.
>>584794925
Guess that's it until next season.Or they unfuck the online (lol)
>>584795236>faster firing gun fires 3x faster, does 3x less damage so those 2 things cancel out. Su-57 gun is also more precise. Also A2G weapons are completely irrelevant on ALL of those and using them actively harms your team. I don't want a random fucking F-35 stealing away points from our attacker. The game is all about protecting your attacker and letting them farm max points while also trying to stop the enemy attacker from freefarming. Stealing away points from your own attacker makes no sense.

>Tasha << Kate can I talk to you about boys? >>>Kate << My plane is fueled and loaded Rex if you want to sit as my WSO? >>I am choosing to believe this is the only explanation why Rex would be in a WSO chair post game.
>>584783580For a while I thought the game might do something wacky like it being an AI secretly trained on Cope's memories/dialogue that DD put in your helmet without telling you, tying together the AI trained by Mihaly in 7, 3-level weirdness, DD's whole AI-thing, and explaining why you're hearing voices without the supernatural.
Considering a level 20 Su-33 solely because of Chandelier rockets+forward firing gun seems to be the best at it.Specially because of how rare it seems to actually get people also doing the trench and barrel runs.
>>584796497I think it's supposed to be coming full circle, "returning home" in the hero's journey, but it was never established that Ray was a WSO before being recruited by the Endurance's XO, so it doesn't fully work.
>>584796497I'm guessing there's two reasons. The first is for narrative purposes so that Rex can be paying attention to Cope's dogtag and his ghostly ramblings, and the second is that it's just a scouting mission and there's no Sotoans to kill so Rex doesn't care about flying anyway.
>>584795236>Who the fuck would take 4AAMs or XSDBs in online.I take them on the Typhoon. 30 LAAMs is honestly more than enough and getting some 4AAMs instead of 18 more LAAMs is worth it. You can just stagger all 4 into an enemy player and sometimes it works or just use them to clear trash NPC air targets faster. Works pretty well from a good angle, especially with ESM. Lets you save the cooldown on your LAAMs so you can constantly sling those at the enemy attacker just in case they get too comfortable gunning down a howitzer or something.
>>584795434Oh shit, you're right.>Su-57's Handling Boost ability gives better numbers than the F-22's Maneuverability boost>F-22 gets the basic bitch MSL ability that does less damage than the Su-57's Anti-Air>F-22 gets abysmal SpW selectionAbsolute Felon supremacy.>>584795551It's all I could think to put for the F-22, the thing really doesn't get much to stand out. F-35 LACMs would be ok in Assault, it's definitely retarded to try to take it into Warfare and try to do both A2A and A2G with it. Maybe if you kitted it out to just be a nimble ground pounder that might be useful in the weird scenario where nobody on the team wants to play Attacker AND you don't have one either. But it'd still run into the problem of high level ground enemies having enough health that Multiroles can't chew through like a proper Attacker.
The proper spelling of the password at the last part would have been a really good joke if only it wouldn't have broken the flow and tone of the whole mission.
Jousting is so kino
>>584797170Personally I disagree
Personally I enjoyed making mavisimen kill herself
>>584797886
>>584797886Now if only we could get their whole flight to do it...
Thanks to whatever buddy mentioned you can search for public Emergency Sortie parties. Really makes online 50% less infuriating.
>>584797886Yep.In my opinion every mission should have a squadron like Glamrock or Gemma. Not given the full ace or rival treatment, just you know. A fun little squadron to take down, with neat banter.
Every time I get bored and look at people playing this game they're either complete retards or complete crackheads with no "average" player
>>584796620SU-25 is far better at that than the 33.>Attacker bonus >Special gun (along with the A-10) that does double DPS>Has MGP to do quad DPS compared to any other attacker >Has SFFS to clear out anything that isn't in the barrel.You can also level it to 15 without golden blueprints.
>>584798312Sir, the gun is the whole problem, it's angled down so the ToT is super low.
I'm completely lost with this Fort Grays subplot. Wings may be more than one person, but this is a video game so i've been taking down dozens of planes. My kill stats aren't actually even doctored because Cope apparently never shot down a Satoan since he was one. They appear to really believe this crap so what are they actually thinking?(I just did the mission "Singer" for how far I am)
>>584798439is it angled on the frogfoot as well? i could understand the a6e having an offset gunpod but su25 has an internal gun
>>584798542As far as I'm aware all attacker guns are angled down, it's true for the F15E and SU-34 at least.
sometimes i get jumpscared by how competent the wingmen are this time around
>>584798542(nearly) Every Attacker has a downward facing gun.
>>584798840I assume the only one that doesn't is the A-10.
>>584798902Pretty sure every single one in 8 so far as an angled gun. But sometimes in the series you get some that aren't. Off the top of my head the FB-22 in 7 didn't
>>584798539It really is weird how far they went with the schizo subplot. Somewhat reminds me of the one Japanese holdout who wouldn't stop fighting until his former superior had to go to the Philippines in person to tell him the war really was over. But the Fort Grays dudes are just bunker assholes who REALLY hate corpos, to the point that they don't even trust the FCU forces who arrived at their island.
>>584798539IMO it's supposed to be some kind of political commentary about how if you put out any kind of misinformation (AKA everything that DD is doing) people won't believe anything you say even if it's true. Or it could be cut content that was never elaborated on, like how Jenkins feels like he's someone important in the beginning only to not do much throughout the story.
>>584798663The AI still needs tweaking. Like rather than being conservative about special weapons, like the player might be, Special Weapons order means "fire all your special weapons" which often means they're wasted on nothing.I guess it's really for forward attack situations like in your webm.
ECM banned in PvP when
>>584769263No but she looks like the kind of woman who likes bars.
>>584800437In general we have almost no control over our squaddies.No tuning heir planes, no setting target for special, no setting even target for attack.

The tutorials also go over how pressing Forward Attack multiple times changes their priority, but people no longer play tutorials or read manuals these days.
>>584801542>The tutorials also go over how pressing Forward Attack multiple times changes their priority, but people no longer play tutorials or read manuals these daysThere's no indication about what they're attacking at the moment.
>>584801679>There's no indication about what they're attacking at the moment.retard
>>584801542I skipped most of the tutorials because I figured it worked the same as older games. Huh. But I would like being able to pick their special weapons because they get the gimped ammo loadouts for splitting weapons and bring bad options for some missons.
>>584801774Please show me on the HUD where it says what they're attacking.
>>584801852>But I would like being able to pick their special weapons because they get the gimped ammo loadouts for splitting weapons and bring bad options for some missons.Yeah, that'd be cool. They let us do it for Shamrock and it wouldn't have hurt them to add another few menu options so I could tell them to bring more LACMs instead of HCAAs or something.
I'm wondering if someone will post it before I finish opening the game.
>>584801874
>>584802269Is that what that means? I stand corrected then.I've never even seen a tutorial where this is explained, though.
I'm wondering if someone will post it before I get to that point in the mission.
>>584802371it's in one of the tutorial missions
>>584802159Or bring just LACMS with no 8AGMs on the F-35.

Semi related but I heard if multiple people target the same enemy your standard missiles get improved guidance because of the data link, but this isn't explained in any tutorial.
>>584803374That's for MP, and yes there's a tutorial for it.
Are none of you fucking retards capable of figuring things out if you're not explicitly told?
>>584803374Speaking of Datalink that was a good mechanic in Infinity they should have brought back.

Drop tanks should reduce your top speed and maneuverability so that you can aura farm even harder when you drop them at the right time to show your true power.

See the difference.
>>584804569
>>584802371It's in Advanced Dogfight 02 in the optional tutorials. I don't envy game devs trying to teach players things, on one hand newcomers need to learn how to do things but on the other hand the vast majority of people don't want to sit down and read or learn the basics. And making tutorials mandatory would slow the game down so they make them optional instead.It's interesting to see how Project Aces has handled it over time. 6 had all its tutorials fully optional and with a popup screen after missions telling you a new one has unlocked. 7 has on screen prompts pop up for the first two missions telling you how to use SpWs, pull high-G turns, etc. 8 teaches you how to pop flares in the prologue, dedicates half of the first mission to just basic flight, structures the second mission around using special weapons and protecting targets, and throughout the game on top of having a notification highlighting Training tutorials.
>>584804708>I no need to see who they targeting, i need to set target for attack for them. See the difference.Buddy you literally CAN set the attack target.
>>584796418I don't know whether it was intentionally designed this way or just slopped out and this turned out to be the optimal way to play it, but it doesn't matter. This is what the game, as it exists, is about. Protecting your attacker while harassing the enemy attacker because no other role can score anywhere near as many points.
>>584804815>and throughout the game on top of having a notification highlighting Training tutorialsMost retarded thing imo.I no need to see distracting windows during action. We have literal "control tutorial missions" for it.
>>584805085You didn't know how to designate a target for your wingman buddy, maybe you should rethink things.
>>584805003No, you can't.You can order attacks1. targets forward you2. targets behind you3. targets of their choiceIt's all.

>>584804185I always put my #2 on EW duty since they fly closest to the player and stick with you even when you order a disperse command. Noise flies #4 for most of the game so he's the worst for EW duty.

>>584804815>And making tutorials mandatory would slow the game down so they make them optional insteadExcept for the mission 1 ones despite me turning tutorials off and refusing the warm up
>>584805792>You said that you couldn't select targets for your wingmen. You get proven wrong and you move goalposts to say you can't select a target for each one of your wingmenNice projection.You tried to sell command for *attack your current target* as command for *set target for attack*.But in fact the one who tried to change goalpost (and accuse me instead) is you: you just start it after i catch you with request of actual *set target for attack*.That is, retard.
>>584806159I blame casual nuggets for that one. 7 exploding in sales and all the complaints people made in 7 and 8 about not knowing how to fly basically told PA to make that shit mandatory, because the average gamer these days cannot into 3D vehicle movement.

>>584806528Tell me your skin color and country of origin. I want to be specific when I call you slurs in my next post.
>>584805419OK buddy, this isn't Freespace 2 with like 70 different targetting and wingman control keybinds.As much as I would like to be able to designate individual targets for every single plane under my command the game is not complex enough to really need it or even seriously benefit from it.
how do the aoe shield UAVs work?like whats the in-universe explanation?
Kate has some cool as fuck drawings.
>>584806715I'm pretty sure this guy is the Russian that was stirring shit earlier in the thread. So skin colour is white, country of origin is the Russian Federation if he's under 34, Union of Soviet Socialist Republics if he's over.

The game even teaches you how to do this with popup tutorials. You're being deliberately obstinate because your own posts shift from "can't designate target" to "can't designate targets for each wingman", which you first express desire for in >>584805419>Show me the video where you set 1.

>>584808056>has what looks like a feathered hand as his emblem>fucking murders everyone that goes up against him>functionally being called the hand of GodWhat's hard to understand here?
>>584807756They made up for having fewer enemies by having everything be way more deadly. At highest difficulties enemy missiles would oneshot you and AA fire would kill you in like 6 hits. Ever since 6 they've been able to have a shit ton of enemies in each mission and since 7 they balanced things out by making enemies do less damage. 6 was a bit weird where missiles would still oneshot you but AA did slightly less damage and also really sucked at aiming at you, flying low enough meant that AA would never touch you.
>>584808056>>sotoa has satellite guns called the terminus fingersNo they don't. They're called Tonitrus Spears. The Terminus Fingers are a Sotoan religious/cultural equivalent of the Grim Reaper.
>>584808056That's a (reasonable) holdover idea from the June Release Date trailer.The Tonitrus Spears are not referred to as the Terminus Fingers in-game.

>>584807756They're bite sized PS2 games back then the average mission time was about ten minutes with a few exceptions. Easy to pick up and play.
>>584810958it was a simulation, now get out there into the real world and wreak havoc
>>584811151Thanks anon
>>584811289Still twice the length of online missions ffs
>>584805262Okay this guys is aurafarming extremly hard
>>584810958How did it happen?I am on steam and 50% of the time i get cloud error but everything is always in place
I've seen Japs changing stick deadzones through steam for adjusted responsiveness anyone try this?Also a new feature in the settings, the target track camera and be switched to a toggle. Hold a longer press and it will stay glued to targets. Little jarring because when it auto switches it will whip your camera around to the new target. But it frees up your controls so you're not holding the button.
>>584807884What is the high-g turn, is it just when you slow down your aircraft to turn tighter?
>>584811660I know right ? Actually looks like lore accurate gameplay.
>>584811859When you accelerate+decelerate and get all the compressed gas on your plane and makes a very thight by bleeding a big chung of speedThat's the High G turn.If you do that under 500kph (with a little more timing, you need to move the stick 0.5 seconds after you press the accelerate\decelerate) it triggers a post stall manouver
>>584811859Yes by default you press both triggers and bleed speed fast in exchange for tighter turns
Not to start a debate, but I much prefer how high g's work in War Thunder.
>>584811896Yeah, he also matrches the gameplay with music. He knows what he's doing
>>584812059Oh, I play on keyboard so I've never bothered to use it
You shouldn't be allowed to spam high gs.
>>584811818I alt tabbed while waiting for online to load, that crashed the game and when I booted it up steam cloud synced up with the corrupted save.Should've immediately delete my save so that steam cloud could fetch my old save.No idea why crashing while loading online somehow nuked my campaign saves, maybe it was checking it for skin/clothing rewards or some shit.
>>584812179you'd have to explain how they work in war thunder if you want anything but a response calling you a little bitch, cuz i'm ready
>>584812402I just prefer how they're more relevant in normal maneuvers and cause blackout effects.Again, I'm not saying War Thunder is better, I'm saying "I prefer this one aspect".
>>584812179By being locked behind a disgusting amount of grind for your crew or just, most realistically, being straight up p2w, you mean ?
>>584812179Don't worry, we are okay discussing other plane games here.By you prefer it, you mean the "Manouver Mode" that shuts off the flight computer right?Or just the turning as hard as you can, pushing even 9 G's if your pilot is trained enough?>>584812272I tried playing with keyboard and mouse before, but honestly i think that the best way to experience the game is with a controller>>584812325damn this fucking sucks. I'm always tabbed out during online wait... i'll pay attention to it. I'm sorry it happened to you and thanks for the heads up
>>584812557That wasn't the case when I played. I left WT because it was clearly becoming p2w, so I'm not debating that aspect.>>584812671I just wish G's were more relevant in general in AC. Instead, you trade speed for maneuverability and that's it. G's aren't even relevant unless you push the "turn fast" button.
>>584793264Sotoans, to me at least, are more like Navajo who somehow industrialized.
>>584772417who is the artist?
>>584812284online would be better if high G had a cooldown yeah. as it is right now nobody half decent will ever get hit by a missile unless you shotgun them with it or shoot them when they're fighting someone else already. you can just notch every missile instantly, you don't have to think about maneuvering at all lol
>>584812886it's ai slop, anon
>>584783720>>584784096>Even in "primitive" WT arcade player need to control throttle for dominance battlefield.Not really. I play lots of WT, normally realistic but RB cares more about throttle an AB. In combat your throttle is normally at extremes. It's out of combat where fine throttle control starts mattering. You either want maximum energy in a fight, or situationally throw on the brakes. The primary draw of fine throttle control are strategic out of combat concerns about fuel management. If your prop plane only has 30 seconds of WEP, then you don't want to waste it out of combat. If your plane is beyond the bingo line and you need to limp back to base, then you can sometimes limp back by cutting throttle down since lower throttle positions are often slower but more efficient for distance traveled per unit of fuel. A plane with multi-stage afterburners might want to only be in stage 1 so that they can go supersonic, but they don't want to burn all of their fuel fast. Or you might want to deliberately waste fuel so that you are lower weight once you enter the battle. But once you are in a fight it's usually the best choice to use throttle extremes.
>>584812817>That wasn't the case when I played. I left WT because it was clearly becoming p2w, so I'm not debating that aspect.Basically if you play high tier jets these days, if your crew isn't 100% maxed and you didn't buy ACE for the plane too, you're basically gimped. Other people will pull more Gs for longer, and it can make a huge difference in a fight.Not that dogfight even happens anymore at top tier. Its nothing but a gigantic fox-3 shitshow. I stopped playing a couple years ago.
>>584812817In WT, the G-forces you can pull are determined by calculations in the physics engine, taking into account the instructor, flight model, air density at your current altitude, fuel and armament load, and crew level. It's a fundamental mechanic of a realistic flight model. Even a relatively gentle turn can easily pull 2–3 Gs, for example.AC, on the other hand, isn't trying to be realistic; it's trying to be authentic. Pretty much every normal turn you make in AC is already pulling around 9 Gs or more.The so-called high-G turn is essentially just a dash mechanic. It's called "high-G" because it's a game about fighter jets, but functionally, it's more of a gameplay mechanic than a realistic representation of pulling Gs.Prefering one over the other is legit, but still they are very different things.
>get my daily 5 gold contracts>log offThanks, ACO, for promoting a healthy society that doesn't play vidya all weekend
>>584813019damn it actually looked a tad bit like some of the art i've seen
>>584813132LMAO. Toptier is where crew skill matters the least in warblunder. You would have been right a few years ago prior to Fox-3s when the meta was getting into knife fights with IRCCM fox-2s, but if you are actually good at BVR then even a stock crew is good enough since you have like 30+ seconds before a BVR missile reaches you. You don't need max crew + ACE training. Simple a crew high enough level to permit you to pay for expert training is MORE than enough. If you do have a max crew then you can skimp on the expert training.Having higher training can help occasionally in a knife fight, but at top tier you can earn plenty of score just scooting around with BVR combat. The part of WT where crew skill is truly cancerous is naval combat because damage control is serious business and low tier crews are shit at damage control.
>>584814287Tanks too. Have you seen the difference in reload speed ? Repairs ? Anything really. Fucking cancerous russian cucks.
It's called free to play, not free to enjoy.
>>584814287NTA but he did say he stopped playing a few years ago.
*Sotoan Throat Singing intensifies*
>>584772417thanks
>>584810958Just use a save editor.
I have a strong urge to instalock the Su-34 every time in Warfare because every time I let someone else play attacker they're fucking GARBAGE.
>>584815570DLC will have that god willingImagine Sotoan mercenaries with throat singing / maybe metal leitmotiv.
>>584815772I don't understand how people can be bad at attackers. Just hit the ground targets. They barely move.Even an attacker under heavy pressure the entire game should easily rack up 50k+ points over a match
>>584816053Not sure if I'm being efficient but with how Ace scores work I save the big targets for last. So you'll kill a ship and get triple score bonus.
MY PEOPLE ARE DIVIDEDTHE NATIONS ONCE UNITED, COLLIDED(WHOO HOO)HEAVEN KNOWS WHO TO SIDE WITHTHEY SHOUT FOR LIBERATIONMY DOUBTS AND HESITATIONS, BUT I WILL(WHOO HOO)PRESERVE, PROTECT, DEFEND, SECURE AND CARRY ON
Anyone else skipping all monkey wilson content?
>>584816498It doesn't matter. 12k points to hit 3 star Ace.Whether you get those 12k points all in white targets or red targets, the math is the same
>>584816053I don't get it either. Even if you get shot down 3 times and have to rebuild the ace meter every time you should score at least 100k. Like what the fuck are these people doing, why are they ending the match with 40-60k score? And it's always some retard in like an F-2 or some GIGARETARD in an Su-47 with UGBs who either sucks as an attacker or just steals points from your ACTUAL attacker.
>>584816601I don't know what that is
>>584816792The XO. Actually what the hell is the Endurance's actual Captain doing this whole time? He shows up in a few briefings but he's otherwise absent. It makes sense to have the XO handle briefings and shit while he's on the bridge I guess but it also feels odd he's borderline absent.
>>584816792The XO
>>584816968>what the hell is the Endurance's actual Captain doing this whole timeBanging Kate.

I hate briefings. I skip every briefing. I don't care. I can't even speak. I bomb. Things.
>>584817354ok nemo
>>584817159Commanding the ship, giving brefings to pilots isn't his job.
>>584817503And briefing the pilots is the CAG's job, not the XO's.
>>584817629CAG is busy banging Kate with the captain, please understand.
Just tell AWACS to mark enemies with red and if I have to escort, mark with blue, I ain't need no talkie talkie
>>584806380>because the average gamer these days cannot into 3D vehicle movement.Shit the average gamer can't even into gaming in general, there's a reason so many games cover interactables in yellow paint
>>584814525Crew skill matters even less in tanks than it does in BVR planes. The name of the game in tanks is positioning. You get in a position and then just start clicking on enemies. The normal encountering between tanks is that one tank shoots the other one first and either instantly kills him in one shot or cripples him to the point where he has no realistic chance of recovering without third party intervention. If you fuckup your shot they normally delete you back long before even an ACE crew could have reloaded your gun. It's only in the miniority of edge cases you fumble your shot and they fumble their retaliatory shot where your crew skills shaving a few moments off reload timers finally determines the outcome of the fight. I am tired of seeing smooth brained retards blaming their lack of high crew skill as being the reason for their deaths as if the difference between a 7 and 6 second reload timer matters THAT much. I routinely see veteran players fuck around in assault guns like the brummbar and sturmtiger with 20 and 50 second reload timers respectively and still score up near the top of the scoreboard. Opening your wallet and swiping your credit card to get a maxed crew isn't the key to victory in tanks. It's map knowledge and knowing how to aim.Top tier makes tank crew skill even less important. Autoloaders negate the need for a loader skill. gun stabilizers brute force the traversal rate of your gun so that you don't need those initial few levels in gunnery that swaps your gunner over from being a retard that aims one axis at a time into someone that moves both simultaneously.I'm speaking from experience of quite comfortably swapping nations and going back down to level 1 crews just to play with event reward toys from nations that I've never touched in the past. In descending order of crew value:>Matters a shit tonShi(t)psGun-fighting planes>Matters occasionallyBVR planes>doesn't really matterTanks>HELICOPTERSHelicopters
Getting dangerously close to needing another egg carton post.
>>584817919and instead of learning how the game systems work, they look for ways to make it easier and simpler, which is why a lot of those big variety streamers played ac8 with novice controls

>>584818646
>>584818726Literally incapable of online multiplayer unless a big console daddy like Sony is doing all the heavy lifting.
>>584818726Japan can't into netcode because they all live geographically close to each other and have fiber. They're basically one big LAN party. I'm honestly a bit surprised that they're fumbling about and trying to reinvent the wheel to fix the problem instead of just laughing about gaijin.
i just noticed that belka got nuked again
>>584819163Hmm, I wonder where Division 303 was based?
>>584818525she's so cute>>584819163this is another proofs that belka is behind enso
Enso was Osean. This is known.
>>584819442""""north osean""""
>>584819342It's just proof that there's a chance. Following anime rules, that's basically proof that IT WAS BELKA.
>despite my better judgement let some rando I've never seen before lock in his F-2A UGB/LASM in diff 3 warfare>he barely does anything despite me doing everything in my power to distract enemy players and keep him safeHOOWWWWW.

>>584819278>>584819342Dear god
>>584819519Operation Cannibal directly inspired the bombing of Expo City.Oseans were behind it all. Belka is innocent.
>>584819527It's a Belkan conspiracy, they're being framed!
>>584819787Belka was framed by BELKA!
>>584819546>F-2A UGB/LASM playerThere was your problem.
>>584819843>this is probably what actually happened>belkan corporatists inside Enso Order are framing belkan nationalists
>>584819903But it's really not bad. Sure, it's only really top tier on maps with ships like Artiglio port but UGBs can be pretty good with upgrades even if they're not as good as the Fullback's UGBNs.

Where/when should the next Ace Combat be set?
>>584822240Hottake: somewhere other than Usea.I get that's the main setting of the franchise, but it'd be nice to see the rest of the world too.
Why we even have g-turn?It look stupid.
>>584822240/v/ suggested it should involve Romeo and Juliet with planes.
>>584822240New continent. Give it an Asian theme. Not-Japan, Not-China, Not-SEA etc. Give them cyberpunk cities.

>>584821562How many spears struck Enso facilities in the finale? >inb4 it was seven international facilities swept clean with seven spears
>>584822415>whole plot is about the player pilot falling in love with the rival ace>>584822564THIS.Everything in Ace Combat feels like not!Europe, or not!North America.I want not!Japan, not!Hong Kong, and not!Korea. Epic showdown that's themed like a samurai duel over a fuckhuge Japanese castle.
>>584822374I want to see the AC0 countries Sapin, Ustio, Belka etc
Assuming ac8-database is accurate, the "balance" of ACO parts seem pretty strangeLike the dual acceleration/top-speed part gives 15% acceleration and +31 top speed,which is both better than the Lv.2 acceleration's +0.25 (since no plane is shit enough for 15% to be worse),and the Lv.1 top speed's +30Or most of the Lv.2 parts result in a ~10% boost, some worse, some ~20%,like somehow the Lv.2 SP.W lock-on range parts only give 5%Meanwhile there's abilities that say "slightly", but are as big as 30% like Anti-Air Attack Modification (Multirole), or 40% Respawn Time Decrease (Lmao)
>>584821824Only the good boys are allowed to see Kate's asshole.
>>584822240Being a top Savian merc squad during the corpo war. The Savians got some major reps in Ace 8, so PA should capitalize.
I swear these fucking PSniggers get hits they really shouldn't. I don't know if it's just clientside bullshit from their toasterboxes lagging behind or some weird Bamco-certified code that can't handle crossplay netcode.
>>584822571not the collab suggestion, the gameplay onesLike having the scramble planes changed for ACE squadrons, the longer matches based on campaign destruction missions, the scrapping of the 2teams system on coop assault, price limiter for coop warfare ecc.
Didn't use them much in sp but I've been having fun with SAAMs in multiplayer.
>>584822848It's accurate. BROS is extremely strong and should be run on literally every single plane. NGHPC II is a bit weak but it's worth running on planes with 4 body slots. SM II is worse than just FAPD II.
>>584822959Savian merc would be interesting, especially with the growing corporate plotline.Your status as a merc can take you all across Strangereal. Basically no limits. Maybe even have a branching mission tree again, where you can select the contracts you want to take (but there is some map recycling anyway).
>>584822998The netcode is just really fucking ass. I've been running the f4 with HVAAs and maximized +speed parts. I swear that sometimes I am credites with a kill before the missiles visibly hit the target on my screen.
>>584823327It seems even worse with PSniggers though. Not sure about Xfags, haven't seen enough of them.
>>584822374We know basically nothing of the other 1\3 of the world, being yuktobaniaIt was prominent in AC5 and never againWith the current graphics and technology another large scale conflict between the yukes and the osean could be kino. Hell, they could even work on one of the (allegedly) 4 world wars that happened in strangereal before 2040. We never had a strangereal world war. Canonically there were 4 of them.They could do an AC3-style campaign with multiple choices that, based on your choices, could result in Osea, Usea or Yuktobania winningAnd then when you do all the routes you discover that you're just NEMO2 so everything is canonThe sky is the limit
>>584817354>>584817818t.
Did you know... that there are three kind of aces?Those who are masters of electronic warfare.Those who strike from beyond visual range.And those who fight at the knife's edge.Those are the three.
>584823489You might be retarded. Fuck off. No (you) for you.
>>584823610Which one is gitting gud with TLS?
>>584788108>your dead friends just NG+ as birds when they eat a Fox 2Is Tasha hearing Baxter now?
>>584823610and yet the MVP is always some fat fuck dropping nukes on howitzers
I just thought of a funny fanfic idea.Instead of Ray being Cope's WSO, it's Tasha and so Cope haunts her instead.I just think it'd be funny having Tasha be forced into the hero role while Cope's ghost is muttering into her head.
PvP would be better if only MPBM/TLS Morgans were allowed. Honest and straightforward
;_;
>>584823647Seething zoomie retard. Your 7 second attention span is disgusting
>>584823196Every mission after the obligatory tutorial introduction being a contract to choose, would be cool. If it's one thing Ace Combat needs more of it's replay value outside just getting S-ranks.
>>584824036A way to do it with less dev effort is the map you fight on doesn't change, but what happens in the map does (as well as maybe time of day).So you can pick a mission where you are going after an enemy fleet, or another mission that's a big furball, or another mission that's taking down bombers, or another that's more superweapon focused. Same map, though.
>>584823698Once you know that TLS range is 6000 and isn't broken by clouds, you can go anywhere you want.

>584823971Shut up retard. Briefings are shit and the worst part of every game. You're a moron trying to fit in.
Thank you bamco, very cool
I wish there was a chance for enemy ace invasions during the campaign.
>>584824661It's definitely my GOTY.
Will we ever get proper WSOs in Ace Combat?The Hornet being the canon plane was a perfect opportunity to do it.Project Wingman having Prez was really a stroke of genius
>>584824661I'll laugh my ass off if AI sloppers manages to make GTA VI playable on PC at release.
>>584824198Easier way to do it, the Savian's got their hands on an aerial warship and poke around Strangereal, launching fighters from an old Aigaion like a bunch of sky pirates. If it's corpo war themed, put them in a Mobura.
>>584824948Cope kinda serves the same role that Prez did.So they sorta did it.
>Playing AC04>look up canon plane for fun>F-4E PhaantomWhat the fuckYou're telling me Mobius did all this shit on that blue rustbucket?
>>584824661It's better than 7 IMO.Up there with 5 and 0 at the minute but it could go up.
>>584825061I'd love that. An old obsolete superweapon as your home base.Maybe even a bit of sky pirates going on where your first mission is to "gently convince" a civilian airliner to land.
>>584825120That's why he's the GOAT.I did it all in the Phantom, too.
>>584822679Presumably there's gotta be a place these Nagases, Hiroses, and Nguyens are coming from. Surprised they haven't done it sooner.There's a big empty spot north of Usea, or could make it east of Leseath.
>>584823929I've said this in other threads but Tasha should have been Rex's wingman by the end of the game. Everything is logically set up for her to take that spot >Deuteragonist of the game>One of the most talkative characters in the game>Has the base skill level to keep up with a psycho AC player>Crux of her part of the story is everyone trying to keep her from killing anyone>Finally does kill someone to save Coster but it's never really explored>Main villain was defeated by her mother>Main villain kills her mentor>Her sperg out when Kate gets downed>Her final line about never pulling a trigger againInstead we get Coster taking over and kinda just being there like he did for the entire game

I wish they used Cope's model more. They spent all the time making a full fidelity model that they used exclusively in the prologue. Should've had him just walking around, haunting the cutscenes and mission briefings.

>>584826624Canon, yes, cannon, no. Those AA eat you alive in older games, gotta keep your distance.
>>584825893>Is it any worse than Cipher starting out in a MIG-21?What? He starts out in a Draken and by Round Table 2 has an F-15C.
>missiles
Fellas I'm Sotoan and people like Tewy or Toprak do not represent me.
>>584826798We know, Cope.
What even was toprak's endgame
>>584826972Thank you for shooting her down.
>>584826502You know, people say this a lot, but I don't see it. I fire from 10k, turn and go back to what I was doing, and a few seconds later, shacked. Almost every time. That said, I do have much more fun with my SASM spamming FA-36. >>584826474Being able to switch targets makes them busted as fuck. Reminds me of the SKIPPER missiles from Wing Commander.
>>584827105Enslave humanity to his shitass culture.
>>584826798Don't care, fox 2
>584826449AC wouldn't be AC without the music.Nobody gives a fuck about some briefings.
>>584827105Simp enough to Tewy to get access to her crippled puss.Nigga even dyed his hair white.
Tried multiplayer. It's really not particularly fun honestly. Kinda disappointed.
>>584826753>canon, yesHmm, i guess i'l give the F4E another chance, i replaced it pretty quick, but i haven't felt much difference between planes, might just restard since im pretty early still
>>584827176That's Enso's endgame. Toprak was just gay.
>>584826798Having a bunch of Sotoan civilians shouting their support for Wings at the end of the game was a massive bail
>>584826474Damn, time to retire my Foxhound and bring out my Foxhound
>Just now noticed the indicator for how much damage your weapon doesBeing colorblind sucks
>>584827393It's up to you, my first run definitely used a bunch of different planes, I just love the F-4 in all its variations, so I do an F-4 only run in every AC game.
>>584827610why the FUCK did they not add carrier F-4 to the carrier based Ace Combat game
>>584826798>Fellas I'm Sotoan and
>>584827105fly planes nigga are u dumb
>>584827697They only added the f4 to sell Mobius 1 camo.
>>584826767Actually, if you just hit new game and skip everything, you hanger a Tiger II by default for Glacial Skies. You have to go and actually select the Draken or F-1 that come pre-unlocked.>>584825537Savian sky pirates would be a fun opportunity for Axe & Hammer Precision Instrument Industries to come back.
>>584827697The non-carrier version is the only one with an internal gun iirc.
>>584827697I fully agree with you, it makes no sense whatsoever, especially as no one would even care if they didn't even change the model to be carrier accurate, just let me launch my rustbucket you hacks. I still did them in free mode, but it stings to not be able to do the full campaign.
>go into space to destroy the tonitrus satellite>the spears keep coming anywayhow many of these things do they have?
>>584826798Keep sheep away from this dude.
I'm convinced at least 80% of the people playing this game do so with their eyes and ears shut.
>>584828057What's it like being deaf and retarded
>>584826767>He starts out in a Drakenyeah if ur a fuckin european homosexualreal niggers picked the tiger 2 like shin kazama
>>584828057You'd know if you weren't a zoomer that skipped the briefings
>>584828057Stop looking at your phone during mission briefings you goober.
>>584827858>>584828226Draken makes the most sense because of the arthurian theming.
>actually watching the briefingsThey're boring as fuck.
>>584827863True, but that didn't stop them slapping a gunpod under the belly of the f35.Could've done it easily on a F-4J\F-4S as well
>>584828226>Area 88 mentionedNguyen deserved to die like a dog for firing on parachutes. I'm glad he earned his fate.
>>584827849They already had the model and skin from 7, and there can't be that many physical model differences. No one would've complained about more planes.The campaign is damn near perfect, except for the autistic plane selection. Why are there less planes available than 7? Where's the YF-23? Where's the Terminator? Why did you not add the Block III Hornet THAT YOU ALREADY HAD A MODEL FOR in the Hornet based Ace Combat game? I know the answer is probably just saving it for future multiplayer battle passes, but that doesn't make it any better.>>584827863Then give it a default autistic belly gunpod like with the F-35 and A-6.
>>584828404GOD, imagine if they let you pick the same SPW twice and link them, and link firing the gun to firing the MGPs. Five guns all at once. God damn glorious.
>>584828057ok I get this is a dumb question but like how did they accurately fire the spears after they detached from the satellite if they're pure kinetic munitions?how did they repair the satellite during m28 if the thruster controls were literally fried?
>>584828591AC8 has more planes than AC7 though, unless you count DLC planes. Also AC7 didn't have a carrier F4 either.
>>584828715i assume they are not "pure kinetic" munitions, they have guidance like smart bombs
>>584828715STOPIGNORINGBRIEFINGSAll of this is explained in the game.The sat was never repaired
>>584828715dog you have got to be trolling
>>584825261Obviously, the yellow people come from wellow
>>584828489Nguyen was a good guy in the manga!
>>584828747I mean the Mobius 1 F-4 is the same model and skin as the one in 7. Couldn't have been too difficult to had some intern edit the model into an F-4J
>LifelineI know I'm still brand new but god damn. I think I now understand why you guys love these gamesDIE YOU SOB
>>584828902The satellite was explained. They're using the backups as guide beacons instead of having the satellite fire. It's blindfiring and the lasers are correcting it by feeding the data to the float which feeds it to the correction computer.
04 sucks desu
>>584828715they didn't repair it, they just modified the satellite's operations so it could continue firing even with a failing orbit
>>584829084Yeah, didn't they swap or merge his role and someone else's from the manga because the studio thought it was too many characters?
>>584825936https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xc2Q7jg_57A
>>584829087>forgetting the F-4EJ Kai
>>584829514I'd like to explore Don Karnage's cave, if you know what I mean.
>>584829087But AC04 also used the F-4E, but that game let it magically take off from a carrier.
>>584828489that's a matter of interpretation
I do find it very funny that 8 is the first game in the series where the F-4E is an actual Air Force Phantom instead of being a hodgepodge of multiple variants. What I find odd is that they never put in any representation of the EJ variants the JASDF had, either by giving the E LASMs or by having the EJ Kai show up as an upgraded Phantom.
>>584829908Wouldn't that guy have been blown to bits by the HE shells?
Seeing all the posts about people hating briefings and tutorials and just skipping them makes me understand why there's so many crab and sun memes
>>584830263>yellow sun>it actually white outline on redYeah briefings totally useless. Tutorials too.
>>584830263Are you surprised? The modern gamer is a fucking retard with a tiny attention span.
>>584830263The crab/sun thing is deliberately designed to fuck you up though. It got me the first time because I fired two missiles as soon as I was in lock range and I was too focused on counting the number of cranes on deck.
>>584830263I got fucked up because I actually did read the objective screen and it says "yellow sun" so I failed liked twice before figuring out that the sun was actually red.
>>584830493It shows you a fucking picture of it and tells you how many cranes on the ship to narrow it down. The only thing that's useless is the fucking grey matter rattling around in your malformed skull.
>>584830106not if he was shooting ap
>>584829087>F-4K>Look up what was different>Legit the fucked variant for using Bong parts that made it worse at high altitude
>>584829636>Jap game>Shove the F-2 into it every opportunity>No KaiWhat gives?
>>584830631>It shows you a fucking picture of itWho care about picture retard. I don't have it on sticker in cockpitBut i have a text that said "yellow sun". That is matter. And there they set me up.So fuck off, you fail your mission by protect flaws in the game again.
>>584830809They recognize that no matter the weapons or the radar, if your Phantom doesn't have Agile Eagle then you might as well throw it away.
>>584830809They even made a fictional F-2 variant for 7's DLC lol. A meme plane like the F-4X got reprsentation before the actual Phantom they used.
>>584830909How utterly fucking stupid are you that you can't remember the picture of the sun? You're the dumbest motherfucker I've seen in weeks.
>>584830493>>584830620>yellow sunWell that's fucked up. The mission briefing and in-game dialogue only talk about a sun symbol, not color. If you're not hallucinating then it sounds like an error with the pause menu objective screen.
>>584831006I no need to remember this shit in first place retard.Briefing was wrong and you can't cope here.It was last (you) for you btw, you really not deserve it braindead motherfucker.
>>584831049Given how retarded he is I would guess he's hallucinating.
>largest ace combat multiplayer mode ever>it takes about 18 minutes of gameplay to completely experience all there is to experience in itgrim
>>584829386Yeah there is an arc where basically half the cast dies and Nguyen joins post that.Funny enough it’s when they fight against a Land Aircraft Carrier
>>584831149>I no need to remember this shit in first place retard.I'm sure if your body didn't do it autonomously you'd forget to breathe you troglodyte.If I open my game and it says nothing about the color yellow I want you to livestream your suicide.
>>584831149>I no need to remember this shit in first place retard.>Briefing was wrong and you can't cope here.Objectively fucking false, the game doesn't call it a yellow sun. Open the game or scrub through a mission video and check. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6BYVwuiGrAQ
>>584830809You put me in mind to ask, what's the deal with no longer putting the F-1 into the game either? Thought they'd be wanting to add that?
>>584831386It's just attackers being a negelcted class like in 7.
Your plane can fuck off, bring back the F-5 and 20
>>584831567If it was in AC0 it should be in AC8 that is my personal opinion.
Sorry, we need another Tomcat and Hornet variant.
>>584831567unspeakably based
>>584831149>>584831339>shows you a picture>tells you there's three canes>simply calls it a "sun emblem" >no mention of colorHANG YOURSELF ON STREAM RIGHT NOW
I'm gonna be honest I can live without planes that haven't been in AC since Infinity being absent but I see no reason why they can't bring all of 7's roster over barring the Top Gun DLC stuff.
>>584831840Instead hang yourself whimped bitch.
>>584831863But anon what will they pad the ace passes with?
>>584831149>this is the same retard who couldn't figure out how to use Forward AttackIt's amazing that you figured out how to access the internet.

>>584826798Something an actual goatfucker LARPer would say. All Sotoggers get Sidewindered. No exceptions.

>russian is retardedI've never been more surprised in my life.
>>584832228CFTs ugly
>>584832120god's punishment for being ESL desu
>>584832120>russian>is a complete fucking retardWho could've guessed? Nobody here reads your mongoloid language. This is likely a localization issue because all of you disgusting malformed retards over there are barely literate in the first place. Fuck off and kill yourself
>>584832120Yukes stop posting in my thread
>>584832156Dogshit recolor skins and avatar items like they're doing now, of course. If this one is any indication each pass is only going to give you one actual plane. I imagine when they put the YF-23 in it'll be a shop item like the other base game planes.
>>584832120Heхyй нa pycикe игpaть eблaн
>>584832451I actually think they look pretty cool on the 16s and 18s.
>>584832208Are your ass still hurt from time you got spanked for selling "attack my target" as "set target for attack"?>b-but it's the sameIt's not the same. Nor mechanically nor linguistically.It proven that you can't do request as proof.Tell me, why you so obsessed with protection flaws of this game? You are lying, you are conflating concepts, and you are attacking the person instead of the argument. Are you got anything for it in reward, or you just chromosome hoarder who can't admit any any criticism for this objectively mediocre game?
>>584832451It is, clown shoes tier
>>584832632They look better on the Hornet imo, they blend into the fuselage more instead of sticking out like the Viper CFTs do. Mudhen CFTs are sexo incarnate, thoughbeit.
>you just chromosome hoardervery funny phrase tbf
>>584832430You can use machine to translate, what a problem? I played korean mmos just fine.>>584832549No!
>>584832632They're an insult to everything an F16 stands for
>>584832761That would imply I give a shit enough to translate your drivel.

>>584832705Yea, they definitely look better on the Hornet. I'm still baffled that they didn't put the Block III in 8 given that it was already in 7, and the 18 is the "main" plane in 8 in the first place. >>584832856I don't disagree, but I still think they look cool,
>>584832729Yeah, gotta hand it to him, that one's good.
Holy fuck this guy is retarded. I hope he gets conscripted.
>>584832858You care enough to shitposting on aib in fucking satuday night.You obviously give a shit enough since anyway you have nothing to do.And you won't do it only by one reason: since you know that you wrong here.
Bake slave, time for my new thread. Chop chop.
>>584832120>dead language>expecting anyone to know it
>>584832643>It's not the same. Nor mechanically nor linguistically.It is the same you tankie, it's no one's fault but yours that you failed to phrase your post well enough to get across what you actually wanted to convey. I need you to write a single grammatically correct sentence before attempting to lecture anyone with regards to how their language works.Why do I even bother, you're just going to get mulched by a drone before you learn anything anyway.
>>584833353>It is the sameIt's not, and it won't how much you will cope.
>rusmutt wakes up at 7:00AM and gets straight to shitting up my threadI've seen this one at least 3 times before.
>>584833180Bake like the Sotoans baked in their land battleship?
>>584833141Why don't you use a machine to translate your fucking awful posts into proper English?
>>584825061i had a thought about AC having some sort of roguelike mode like this, something like MW5honestly though the mechanics of AC are too simple for a super long playthrough of random gen missions to be enjoyable, it's one of the reasons why conquest mode sucks in PW MW5 also suffers from this but you can just install merctech
>>584833557Bcs it will cut half of fun.
>>584833497Humans are ~70% water, it's less baking and more boiling.
>>584833604Food is too, but you don't say you boil your potatoes in the oven
Just in case you forgot, i want to remind you that our economy relies on mercs like us
>>584833604Not the case at all, and it's clear you never cooked before.The human skin is designed to be a barrier that keeps water content inside the body. So liquids are prevented from evaporating. The area around the eyeball, mouth, throat, and lungs would evaporate; but everything else bakes like a piece of chicken breast. Nice and juicy insides.
>>584833767But can you boil Sotoans in an oven? Asking for Bax.
hahahaha

>>584763927what manga is the "no" from?
>>584775434Sauce?
>>584813752Do WT pilots get tired after a few high G turns?I know in DCS your actual pilot gets fatigued if you pull them through AC protag shit and they can only do it a couple times before they start blacking out easier for the rest of the sortie.
