Is there even a single fucking game (arcade or sim or something in between) that lets you fly a B-2 bomber?
They look cool as fuck, like a fucking UFO, I want to fly one

user...
Would probably be very boring.
It's not a UFO if you can identify what it is
not if its like a mod for a game where combat isn't so boring
Im pretty sure that Warthunder is even the only game that lets you fly a pure bomber at all. It sucks. I want videogames with just bombing dudes.
Also a B-1 is fine too, same question as OP, I can't think of any games with these planes you can fly
>flying bombers in Air RB
I actually find it fun and I cream my pants every time I line up my sights with the ground
and then you get swarmed by every fighter nigger in a 10 mile radius - including those who were sideclimbing, as soon as they spotted your red nametag
fun
Flying bombers is comfy (for the pilots at least)
Ace Combat: Infinity let you do it but the game was a bad freemium game and thankfully it's dead and gone. The bombers had some great niche use on the naval fleet vs mode when they first came out.
>oh fuck our fleet completely melted what happened nothing's on radar
Ace Combat Infinity RIP let you casually fly both of these in multiplayer
>PS3/4 only
well shit, it was never an option for me anyways
What we really need is a new modern Battlefield game that lets you fucking fly and sail all the new modern shit like Battlefield 1942 let you
Yeah it looks comfy as fuck, especially when your flight ceiling is 50,000 ft like the B-2 - few manned airplanes are above you at that altitude, they also have it extra comfy because they take off from the US mainland, fly over to Bumbfuckistan drop their payloads and then fly back home next day.
Ace Combat Assault Horizon

Note that the rest of the game is hot garbage
>B-2
Old and busted.

Never even heard of that.
I need a time machine so I can back into the time when ice combat affinity was around still and get an xbox and play it
Civilization and Rise of Nations, kinda.
You wake up from a loud droning noise coming from the sky. It's dark out, but your clocks says it's 9 AM. What's going on? Suddenly, everything around you starts exploding. Holy shit. The sky is raining bombs. Your final thought is that it isn't the sky at all. It's a massive sheet of a billion B2 bombers flying in formation, blotting out the sun.
It was PS3 only
Jane's ATF
Suddenly elation turns to suspicion as you remember theres only 21 B-2 Spirit's in existence due to mounting budgetary constraints on the USAF by Congress
Depressed and dejected you wake up and find the sky clear, bright, depressingly sunny, as you lament the fact that there is no giant fleet of B-2's blotting out the sun
Then you remember the USAF wants to acquire at least 100 B-21 Raiders and the thought fills you with joy that perhaps one day, the dream may become reality
You post a smug Sachiko pic
Actually, how's the new Ace Combat on PC? I haven't looked into it at all, but I loved jet games as a kid. Is there enough plane variety?
It's great and just like the ps2 games. Also it has 30 planes not counting DLC fighters
Theres no B-2 or B-1
We need a bomber focused Ace Combat like game, fuck, imagine doing bombing runs and shit, high altitude bombing, low altitude, fast bombing runs
Squad of your fellow bombers, that whole Ace Combat feel
are there any dedicated bombers though or at least bombing loadouts?
Only have 1 Special Weapon really limits what you can do. You're also limited to 2 or 1 shot before your SP weapon goes into cooldown, even if your plane has every hardpoint loaded with ordnance.
AC7's mission design also really fucks you if you take dedicated attackers into certain missions. Bunker Shot being the most egregious.
If you want an AC game where you can bomb the fuck out of things play/emulate 4 and 0.
Remind me, they replace the missiles with more bombs, but they had machine guns added?
Disappointing. I used to play the fuck out of Falcon 16 and that came with like 200 pages of bomb ordenance and flight paths.
no MGs, just about 400 bombs and a ton of armor
Can Americans ever do something original?
They can make it stealthy, and actually produce more than one or two prototypes that never saw combat
>can be detect by quantum radar
Not implessive.
Bombers are an outdated concept much like the half track
ah yes super sekret chinese quantum radar
>comparing bombers to half tracks
Can germans?
That's like saying a tactical team shooter like counterstrike is outdated because of the success of Fortnite. Bombers are still cool as fuck.
The 229 was already stealthy, and was being tested near the end of the war, so it never got a chance to be mass produced.
I'm American myself, and I prefer the Gotha 229 over the B-2, or any American flying wing for that matter.
Ace Combat is an arcade game. If you want something more complex, find a sim. You can fly the SU-25T in DCS for free.
The Ho-229 actually wasn't stealthy, that was a misconception birthed by a history channel special that created a plywood mockup and found that plywood is stealthier than metal
The flying wing shape is inherently stealthy though, but the HO229 wasn't the first flying wing.
But isn't the point of stealth to not be identifiable?
Not looking for a sim, but Ace Combat Infinity looked fucking dope
The point of stealth is to be stealthy, you can't by definition be stealthy if you are unidentifiable as by that point you have lost stealth
Stealth just means it takes longer to detect, not that it isn't detectable at all.
>half-tracks
>outdated
enjoy your inferior troop carrying capacity.
You need to be deported.
Yes, I already knew it wasn't designed to be stealthy, but it inherently was by the reasons you stated.
Well yeah, but saying a B2 is a knock off because the HO229 is a jet powered flying wing is very silly
One is a purpose built stealth bomber, the other is just a jet fighter
In ACI, most aircraft had 1) all-purpose missiles, 2) a special weapon (the player chooses 1 out of 3 options for this slot in the loadout screen) which is usually a special type of anti-air or anti-ground missile or bomb, and 3) a machine gun. The B1 and B2 bombers had 1) a high-damage guided bomb in place of normal missiles 2) a choice of high-damage unguided bombs, high-damage bomblet dispensers, or high-damage long-range anti-ground missiles, and 3) no machine gun at all. This means that while they could deal tons of damage against ground targets, they had no way of taking down air targets (normal anti-ground Attacker aircraft still had a machine gun and all-purpose missiles), unless they were still on the runway or were a large target like Moby Dick which you could directly drop bombs on.
I never said it was a knockoff though, just that I like the HO 229 better.
"Can americans ever do something original?"
well yes a stealth flying wing bomber is entirely original
>implying you must be blindly patriotic and like only American products if you're American
I also think the Spitfire looks a lot better than the Mustang.
Ace Combat Assault Horizon had one bombing mission and it was probably the best mission in the entire game.
It wasn't even that good
Corsair and hellcat > anything on eurofront
That wasn't me, user. I was only defending the 229.
DFM was fun and I wish they implement it again.
There, I said it.
Lordy
I always did like those bent wings. My favorite American fighter though is the P-38.
the 30th anniversary for the B-2 wasn't too long ago
why wings bendy?
my nigga, that shit was my jam with a Sidewinder 3D
Not really talking about stealth bombers, but flying wing planes are sick looking.
i was a crew chief on the b2
it was alright
It was PS3 only, not on xbox. Also, no you don't want to do that, AC:I was a horrible grindy mobage. If you didn't want to be bottom bitch every game you had to farm credits to upgrade your planes, and the number of times you can grind is finite and recharges one game every 4 hour, unless you pay of course.
You could get into flight sims, but that's a road you don't wanna take.
Sly Odyssey for the PS2.
civilian flight simulators will give you the distance and sense of travel (and real time weather) but you loose all weapons/explosions, and combat.
picrelated took OVER FIVE HOURS not including planning, mostly of flying straight. Managing engines, navigation, fuel use, and the old ass autopilot. After turning back from the target I sprung a hydraulic leak and was loosing fluid all the way back to the UK.
I would love to do USA-Middle Ease-USA sortie, but there really aren't good long range bombers in civsims and that's a LONG LONG LONG fucking flight
>that's a road you don't wanna take
listen to this user
DELETE THIS
>that pic
what game?
That's a paid mod for Microsoft Flight Simulator X (2006).
Here's another WW2 era bomber.
oh it's one of those third party dlc. i thought it's from microsoft's cfs3
Its made of light-weight composite materials. It can flex like that and still fly just fine.
