Anything can surpass this

Zero itself is an amazing track but the buildup and the chatter really make it stand out much more. The entire monologue by Pixy is quotable even a decade later.

No?

How has it improved? The gameplay looks exactly the same.

Gameplay and content is far superior to the PS2 games but it is expensive

you cant improve on perfection

4,5, and zero are considered the Holy Trinity. 3 is amazing but only the japanese version. 6 and now 7 are bother really good too. Never play Assault Horizon

Yes but expect texture issues almost constantly on ps1/2 titles

yes, and that is Why is the best

Start with Ace combat 4 then work your way up. The best experience in 7 is:
Ace Combat 1, 3DS Remake of Ace combat 2, Japanese Version of aace combat 3(play the English patch), AC04, AC5, Ace Combat Zero, then either 6, Ace combat X or jump into 7

Literally hasn't happened to me after I followed the /aceg/ guide and looked up TugaAvenger's guide on YouTube.

are the Ace Combat games playable by today's standards?

yes, very.

Good games don't age

Definitely

youtu.be/KcQ5bk5bhjk
X doesn't have the best soundtrack in the series, mostly because the bar set by other games is so high, but I absolutely love how it seamlessly intertwines 3's techno, 1 and 2's rock and holy trinity's orchestral styles. Wish 7 did more of this with it being set just a year before X.

no one ever talks about how good this track is, especially the drums

4 5 and 0 are the PS2 titles and considered the best. AC3 on the PS1 is good too but the localization butchered it, use the fan translation patch.

If you liked it, there's a remake of AC2 on the 3DS and 2 PSP exclusives that are good. AC6 is on the Xbox 360. Do NOT touch Assault Horizon, it was a mistake from around the time every game was copying cowadooty.

No, not in the slightest. It's arcade-y bullshit without a single iota of respect for realism. And there's not a single character a shade darker than lily white, so it's impossible to empathize with anyone or anything that's going on.

X is the real dark horse of the franchise
youtu.be/SSaZtqXoSl4
hell if you really wanna jump into the series now you can play 7

HD remakes when?

The early ones are pretty hard to deal with. The draw distance is shit because they're on the PS1, and the first two don't even let you look around without actually turning your plane since they're from before the dualshock was released. From 4 on they're fine though.

i bet you one of those guy that believe assault horizon is an improvement to the franchise

Never. They said it would be impossible due to licensing

i heard that they ported ace combat 2 to the ps2?

I agree. It's so great and rivals if not beats Platinums dynamic music.

Magic Spear I was better.

No they didn't, and that's obviously not true anyway. If they can license planes for AC7 they can license them for remakes.
The reason it's not happening is because it'd be a lot of effort and they figure they may as well just make a new game. Hopefully one which actually has coop this time.

have never played this series but remember an user posted a track from one of the games ina vidya music thread that had this wild spanish guitar in it. anyone know which track that could be?

There is never a moment in any Ace Combat game where the game takes control away from you. It's entirely told through gameplay and chatter, cutscenes only at the start and end, or translations. Always skippable.

West would do a cutscene showing you that the shield absolutely definitively stopped working with everyone telling you to fly there and fuck it up.
Japs never take you out of gameplay. For all they know you might be in the clouds or chasing smallfry around when the shield drops, and then give you a moment of hesitation as you don't know if it's safe, while the musics pumps you to just go there and shoot it regardless of implications.

It's honestly best to play them in order since theres no major story fuckery and the games only get (arguably) better gameplay wise.

id say they are all worth playing, the only aspect of continuity that you need to consider is that 0 is a prequel to 5, 5 contains a separate small side-story sequel to 4, and 7 has some very small connections to 5.

Don't bother with the side games and it's being thrown around but ill say it anyway, play the JP version of 3.

This user knows what's up.

>Anything can surpass this.
You're right.

And it's wasted on the dull mission it's in.

If you've never played an Ace Combat game before don't bother with 7.
AC is one of those series where the games are only appealing to its fans

Don't. See
Don't listen to the people saying otherwise.

>and it's being thrown around but ill say it anyway, play the JP version of 3
Gonna have to disagree with you here- It's not really worth it.

Charge Assault doesn't get anywhere near enough love, probably because it's the tutorial song and dips in and out of random missions. Fucking love the build up to around 1:50.

The most popular game right now is literally fortnite and you're saying Ace Combat is too videogamey and silly?

Can you hear me?

My problem with 4 is that it plays itself too safe and too limited. it took missions and the story beats from 2, but without side missions and alt paths, and far less missions overall. So if you were coming off of 2 (like myself at the time) the game would be wow factor on visuals, bu gameplay and the like felt like a weaker 2. You couldn't even pick wingmen for crying out loud and there was a far more lacking selection of planes as well.

Also I feel people shit on 2 a little too much in support of the 3DS remake, when that version dropped missions, has less planes, AND has fucking assault horizon's 180 and lock on trailing features that kinda cheapen the experience. Yeah you have less unique radio chatter mid mission with the PS1 game, but the sheer mission variety and flow of it all I think can't really be beaten and still stand the test of time in the series.

But I want to play as Belkan

As much as I love AC7, I really wish there was a way to end the score attack missions early. Mission 11 sucks hard on repeated playthroughs because once you get good enough to take out the platform by flying through it with the PLSL in one go, all you have to do is go over to the fleet, take them out in like 2-3 minutes and just fly in circles for 10 more minutes waiting for it to be over.

Yeah, and they do it by fighting the evil Belkans. Again. Can't we do something new? There are whole continents that have been untouched. We don't need Belka again.

Yeah because AC isn’t gameplay in an isolated bubble. It has just enough story that people will compare it to dedicated cinematic experiences TLOU or Uncharted

They actually care about the game. They literally started from scratch 1 year before release and w still got a great game. Most other studios in that same situation would have put out shit or scrapped the project entirely.

>AC2 has like 6 missions were all you do is shoot ground targets. An oil tanker facility, a total navy fleet, at least 2 castles, and then 2 city's with tanks hiding between buildings.
It's an AC trope at this point. You gotta have your ground missions, and one of them has to be weaving between sky scrapers while shooting at tanks.

That urban mission in 7 was actually fun. Shooting at ground targets in a desert is never fun.

Story is clearly only the cobbled together remains of a truly kino epic about the Spare squadron and Harling's Mirror.

Nobody has enough character to actually fit into an alignment chart.

t. autist

I can't help but try and come up with a better story myself. I was honestly so excited in the beginning when we get put away for the wrongful death of Harling.
I thought it was going to be the beginning of a story like AC0, where we end up with no affiliations and no heroism, just fighting to survive as a way of life. And our squad wouldn't be proud heroes like 5, but would be comprised of other people that got shit out by Osea like Full Band and Count etc.
And when Osea realises they've fucked up and that we were innocent, we would have realised that when they heap praise onto their hero aces, it's just a way to get us to do their bidding. We should have said "Fuck no, you won't trick me into making me a hero," which would have been an amazing subversion of 4, 5, 6 and 0.
The Faceless Soldier moment, when you finally start to band together as a unit with your penal buddies, that felt like it MEANT something at the time. Battling to stop the war and save the day with no national affiliation from that point forward would have made for a seriously impactful story, instead of having a fucking carrot dangled by big Osea once again.

>Giving a shit about AC's plot
No wonder gaming went down the drain

It needed more missions with Spare and some decision points, particularly at the end where you have to choose between destroying the Space Elevator (and thus ending the drone menace forever) or saving it (and thus allowing the spaceship to return but at the cost of one of the drones escaping to lead to Electrosphere). Not too many decision points, just a few. Also one late game meet up with Mage Squadron.

(continued)
How am I supposed to take anything fucking seriously as a player when Osea is propping me up as a heroic Ace when they just binned me with no proper trial in the beginning of the game?
It's like someone being ready to fucking stab you because they thought you stole money from them, and then when they realise they were wrong they just invite you for drinks like nothing happened. And Trigger bought it, hook line and sinker.

Get out.

I loved this game

It's amazing how they had the hype m9ment in Faceless Soldier and then threw it away immediately after. I still have no idea what they were thinking.

>you have to choose between destroying the Space Elevator (and thus ending the drone menace forever) or saving it (and thus allowing the spaceship to return but at the cost of one of the drones escaping to lead to Electrosphere).
I didn't even realise this was an option. But my point about turning your back on Osea instead of just being its tool again would have been a perfect moment for a choice like that.

It must have, must have been some kind of internal politics or some kind of delay-based fuckup. They had the makings of greatness with the first couple of missions.

Blame the execs.

Well, have you played other FromSoftware games? It's mainly the introduction of the Moonlight Greatsword that makes it so amazing. Also the music kicking up when Ludwig sees it is fantastic.

It had about as much active development time as Anthem did, I'm surprised it ended up as good as it wsa.

Yeah, having the Moonlight Greatsword pop up in like a critical path for once was good. I think the reason people latch onto this moment so much is that instead of a boss being a man who turns to beasthood in his second form like Gascoigne, it's a beast regaining his manhood. It's a great fight, I just didn't really take much away from that moment personally. It's a cool idea, though.

No, you get out and post your fanfiction somewhere else.

Based. MGR is one of the more underrated games this decade in terms of story.

I'd keep Trigger with Spare squadron till the end, just slowly eat it one by one every mission until all that's left is you and Count, drawing parallels between expendable drones and your own team of expendables.
Otherwise, most of LRSSG missions can be retooled to be Spare missions with minimal changes (especially Stonehenge, where not putting Scrap Queen in charge of undoing the damage from Mobius is a travesty).

All I wanted was a mission where me and the penal boys shoot down Bandog. Is that too much to ask for?

I like the part where Avril finds a phone. She sneaks it into the base and uses it to call someone who somehow gets her leverage over the colonel which she uses to make sure she'll get to go with him instead of being sent to the island with everyone else, but then the scene changes and she's getting sent there anyway. So we basically had two minutes of cutscene which immediately got forgotten about. It's so strange it's funny.

I'd like to know the full story of what happened behind the scenes because what we got just felt so hashed together. Hopefully Ace Combat 8, or whatever it's called, will be able to balance the new tech and the occasional 10/10 moment with a story that really works and flows together.

Cant wait to tell my son about how Trigger saved the world.

Straight Flush is above 4 of a kind and Royal Flush is just a kind of Straight Flush

It's incredibly that there's absolutely no payoff to the Bandog/Full Band thing. And that you never see him or the colonel get any comeuppance.

Clown really, really needed to show up at the lighthouse

Bandog did nothing wrong.

my head cannon is that knocker was shot down by mihaly and clown died trying to avenge him.

Mobius got his own VR campaign though.

ac3 was very ambitious but it falls a bit flat due to needing to replay the same missions several times over the course of the branching story

You can't kill the megacorps otherwise the games after AC3 in the time line can't happen

ugsf-series.com/en/

The megacorps is what makes the government of earth to unite themselves as one

They don't tell you everything, but if you were following Kono's Twitter since 7 was initially revealed, you can tell he went through some shit even if you just machine translate it. Someone translated him talking about the development process after the game launched. It's a miracle the game is as good as it is, basically.
docs.google.com/document/d/1TQ3yHTQ3NnggQiWwoKHkm4DBw-VnF4FxA4K-F7ueXzc/edit

Wasn't he talking about that nigger dude?

3 could get heavily retconned. Not to say that megacorps won't happen, just 3 could get a remake with a very different script.

No, Champ wasn't a hard kill, and Wiseman hadn't engaged Mihaly yet.

His kid is the black pilot in ac3 right?

This is the best track in the game, but there's so little love for Magic Spear II

Playing through 5's campaign right now. Is it worth using some of the lower tier planes a lot to unlock their variants, or should I just move on to the later unlocks? Like for example I was using the SU-27 just to unlock the variants, but I just unlocked the Typhoon which seems WAY better, so I'm not sure it makes sense to keep grinding out the SU-27.

Fuck off
AC4, 5 and Zero for the PS2 are the go-to games if you wanna play catch-up and get a taste for what to expect from AC7. If you're looking for more, play the JP patched version of AC3 Electrosphere for the PS1 (US version has gutted story) and AH Legacy for 3DS (remake of AC2)

Some of them. Su-27 opens up the most versitale plane tree in the game and has one of the best endgame planes, while something like MiG-21 remains kinda trash and is only worth it for giggles. Some unlocks are outright downgrades due to their special weapons.

I'm still pissed I skipped on Infinity out of principle. I saw the freemium model and assumed it'd be a grindfest so I never touched it

I hate those sorts of endings. What sort of person values personal connections so little?

7 did a really good job of connecting perfectly back up to 3, not entirely sure why you'd want to throw that effort out the window with retcons.

Aside from what this user mentioned The mission set up was innovative. Most missions had 3 or more sub operations. I.e. escort an EW plane, CAS a tank battalion etc.
When you complete a sub operation the ai will hold that area and are free to support you in other parts of the mission. You also fill up an allied support bar which you can use for support fire. Makes the game piss easy but you can Itano circus entire enemy formations to death.

7 was barely connected to itself mission to mission.

because it all happens through gameplay, it's not scripted. The moves mihaly performs in mission 7 all depend on your location and distance to him, i've seen him do cobras and full PSMs

I feel like the final mission would have been way better if the princess had actually died in mission 19 and the drones started trying to speak by editing various audio clips together
I always got the impression there was something wrong with the way the princess speaks to trigger in mission 20

I thought she was an A.I or something in mission 20

Her almost-dying was fucking bullshit.

I thought she was until the final cutscene shows her alive and completely fine, which was a huge missed opportunity in my opinion
mainly though I think the final mission really screwed up by having the drones be totally silent and not do anything particularly interesting, so there's no real connection between you and the final boss
if it had spoken to you by creepily editing clips of all the other characters and enemies in the game together it could have been really fucking cool

youtu.be/FPM-aYiWh_E

Solitary. Now!

Meh, that would be a bit too skynet like. The drones weren't sentient. They were simply following protocol to keep fighting in the event that the link to the network was cut

The drones should have been singing, or humming. And then when you shoot down the first drone, the other one stops humming suddenly and starts crying instead; her voice still in time with the song.
Basically this, but throughout the fight:
youtube.com/watch?v=hHtnMJNq4Gs

I was surprised that he didn't die at some point. Usually characters who talk about meeting again their family members in crucial situations means a death flag.

I think the drones were sentient, just not intelligent in a way humans would consider something to be intelligent. They were basically planning out an entire war that fewer and fewer actual people wanted to keep fighting, for no other reason than that was their purpose.

I thought the Belkan said that once the link was cut the drones resorted to their programming to keep fighting.

What am I supposed to be impressed about here?

Arsenal bird 2 is a crappy AC boss

And that's what they were going to do, only in a way far more complicated than their programming dictates.

youtube.com/watch?v=vGjwXI0n5-I
Not even the best in its own series.
Its easy to time a scripted part of the mission, even AC4 did that. With Zero the idea followed through into both composition and play of the song.

AC7 doesn't even surpass it imo.

I dearly wish it would get ported to PC with all of the lost DLC.

No, it wasn't.

AC8 will talk about megacorps and their cryptocurrencies. Mark my words.

Yeah, I'm trying not to be the same kid I was going fucking bananas over FFXV about how shit it was. I still love Kobayashi, Kono and everyone at ACES but the game deserved to be better than it was. It's really only the story/characters that lets it down, the gameplay and OST are the best they've ever been.

>people unironically think this is fun/good gameplay

Absolutely yes.

Attached: 1405755964071.png (310x310, 160K)

right, but that doesn't really mean sentience.

Zero is overrate. It's just nostalgia

Idolplanes in AC7 when

I seriously think Mission 9 in AC6 is the best mission in the entire series. The 5 ships all doing their own thing at once is just incredible.

AC's plot is an excuse to string together amazing moments and setpieces. It only needs to do that.

It's overrated, but it's good.

Really isn't t. played it again last week.

Ace Combat is a game that is disgustingly competant with its themes. In about 3 monologues Pixy had taken apart why Marx's border removal plan isn't really feasible.

By propping up the "big bad" with mad cut-scene skill and making him invincible until the very last moment so it seems like a feat when it isn't.

Tabloid already did that in the prison.

It actually does, you just think sentience means way more than it actually does. If something is self-aware and can respond to outside stimuli correctly, then it is sentient. The drones weren't Nemo level, but they're the first step towards it and that's what makes them significant. Like how a chimp puzzling over its appearance in the mirror is the first step towards human level intelligence.

If Ace Combat isn't about the plot then HAWX should have become the best arcade plane shooter of the decade due to the Tom Clancy name being slapped on and its exposure. But it's not, because it doesn't have a melodrama story that sets up silly super weapons and fictional planes with lasers.

Yeah and there are no faggy shields to pad out the fight or soul-less drones.

Weren't there only two? It's really telling how awful they were if there were so few but so remembered. There was also the ac130 mission which was pretty damn boring since it was ripped straight out of cod. Flying the bombers was pretty cool though, I think that happened twice. DFM, chopper missions, and the boring as fuck real world story were stupid though.

Ace Combat Zero is the best anti-war war game of all time.

It gives the player lots of agency over their actions via the ace styles and doesn't railroad the player into any path.
It explores multiple ideologies without showing a bias for any particular one (Fascist Belka vs Marxist AWWNB).
It directly contrasts the glorification of war with its reality using both Arthurian legends and historical allegories, how you go from conquering the Round Table and pulling out Excalibur to firebombing a city, not unlike Dresden and failing to stop 7 nuclear bombings.
It explores the effects of war long after it's over, like PTSD, depression, and homelessness among veterans.
It doesn't scream in your ear WAR BAD, and presents multiple viewpoints, again without showing bias for any one (liberal PJ vs realist Pixy).
And the Ken Burns style documentary presentation is genius.

The emblem is a callback to Air Combat 22. The precursor to the Ace Combat series.

how do you choose what to target on something like arsenal bird with a bunch of really tightly grouped targets
do you just keep pushing the change target button until you get the right one

4 could use a remake or something, it didn't age that well. It's mostly ground-pound missions and it's still leaning heavily on the arcade side of the franchise (yes I know it's an arcade shooter, you know what I mean).
>t. just played the entire game last week

AC7 is extremely well optimized, I can play it on a 4-year old non gaming laptop on medium settings at 60fps

As I said, they're not the same game so they're not different "versions" or whatever. One is a remake of Ace Combat 2 and the other is a westernized pile of shit.

So, huh, I'm clueless.
What kind of story does AC0 and AC4 refers to?

I guess it's Arthurian with the round table and all, but so what?

so ur jesus in 4 and ur a demon and 0
demons are cooler fgt

...

This sound like something from gundam iron blooded orphans

7 is made specifically with newcomers in mind.

AC4 refers to the Stone Age and Jesus
AC5 refers to it's own original legend called Razgriz
ACZ refers to King Arthur and WW2

No, it was made for long term fans. Assault Horizon was made for newcomers.

7 also has Jesus references. I was immediately confused, because if Jesus was in Strangereal then who crucified him?

Dude was literally blabbing about the upcoming stonehenge operation to take down an arsenal bird.
When you realize this, it's hard to blame Bandog for finally shutting him up after warning him a fucking gorillion times.

7 refers to Genesis, specifically the Tower of Babel and Archangel Michael, as well as some clear Icarus references

So this is the legendary "Burger Music" I keep hearing about?

But again the question is where did the equivalent of those things occur/originate from. Jesus in particular is SUPER connected to the circumstances of Roman occupied Judea. So connected it's utterly unthinkable to me how similar events occurred on Strangereal, God or no God.

Yeah, I noticed that. A lot of their cultures/nations seem to be pretty heterogeneous too. Although I guess some of that might be from globalization. However, I think there probably was an equivilent to the age of discovery, as the leap from small coastal trading ships to large ocean-going ships is going to make a big impact.

*homogeneous, excuse me
Vaguely european, with no real equivalent to Asian cultures.

the remake was complete trash.

god damn it this game is pure sex.
Too bad mp sucks

People forget how good the PSP games were, even if the controls were wonk.

Anyone know if 7's sales were good enough to warrant a sequel?

As ace combat ever sold well enough to "warrant" another game?

All Ace Combat sold horribly but they still make new ones. AH literally killed Project Aces but they came up with the Ace Combat infinity + fuel system and clutched it.

Trying to deal with Beast Squadron's Birdcage without cheesing it on Ace is exactly why the maneuver system exists if you want the fight to not be you just pulling high speeds until you somehow stall because of sheer amount of missiles they'll fire at you.
Last I tried it I had to dodge a missile every 3 seconds for a solid minute before I could get a lock on one of their hornets.

Also I enjoyed his pragmatism since the second time around he brings in a second squadron to ambush you and uses EW as well.

I always had a sweet spot for the liberation of gracemeria mission/theme from AC6.....

AC1-5 all sold like hotcakes, Zero was under 1 mil but it was a spinoff game made on a budget. 6 sold badly, AH sold pretty well after it was ported to PC, and 7 sold very well and exceeded Bamco's expectations

i think user was referring of ac4-6 and zero

how hard is it to get into the multiplayer

Literally the best selling game on the franchise

Well for starters it's a ghost town. When I last played a month or two ago there was shitters and pros. And it varies depending on the cost limit. Unlimited rooms will just be EMLs and QAAMs which are no fun to fight. Also cheaters everywhere on PC. But they're actually putting in anti-cheat at the end of August...

>"we can't due to licensing"

Yeah no I'm calling bullshit

>not playing AC for the cheese fest
That's like, criminal

I wish Ace Combat wasn't so cheesy, and got into real world issues like poverty and LGBT rights.

This Nickleback looking fuck did nothing the entire game.

I miss Wardog squadron.

Dumb weeb

He has over 9 confirmed kills, though.

Do real life fighter jets just shrug off lightning strikes like in the game or are they completely fucked when it happens?

There's a CGI Tomcat at the end of trailer.

AC8 will be set in 2025 or 2030? In which year Simon started the simulations?

So what people got tired of ripping on 5 so 04 is the cool thing to be contrarian about now?

Well, Belkan War was the WW2 equivalent, right? Not in terms of tech of course.

do you have that pic that shows how to remove the bugs and improve emulation preformance?

In space.

Why does it matter, you have the anime girl. Dumb Iroincfag.

AC7 wont get a GOTY mention even for OST, just you watch.

Because it doesn't deserve one. Apex Legends does.

good, that way it'll stay niche and not get ruined by mouth-breathing retards

Point taken.

No, but I'm sure some searching or asking in the /aceg/ thread will help you out.
