>tfw still haven't played 7

I'm tired of playing 100 variations of cinematic dark souls. How do I into this series? Only thing I ever played remotely close to this was top gun on the nes and flight simulator 2.0.

I enjoyed them

you pick one and you play it.
they're all pretty similar to each other and while the story is a worthwhile component of the game there's no need to play them in order.
don't expect a sim, this is arcade action

Do you think trigger and his copilot fuck in the SU-34's bathroom before entering the combat zone? Just asking as a joke haha

HOLY SHIT
I just looked it up and you're right! I was afraid they'd left it to rot in a plane graveyard somewhere but nope they actually cleaned it up and parked it at an airshow. Super jealous of everyone who got to see it.

any particular control scheme?

It's made for a regular ass controller. The PS2 games are a little better if you have pressure sensitive face buttons like the dualshock 2 and 3 do, but it's not mandatory.

Some of the games (e.g. AC7) have two control options. There's a casual one and an expert one.
In the casual mode turning is automated, in the expert mode you have to roll the plane then pitch up.
Definitely do not pick casual, it cripples you.

So the Season Pass is just three missions and 3 planes?

Attached: vettee.webm (1280x720, 1.05M)

Yes, we have known for quite a while. Maybe they'll do more but I think the Pass was planned before the game sold as well as it did. I have to assume these missions were important enough but didn't make it in during the dev hell

How do you rank 7?

For me it's 5>Zero=7 as the Holy Trinity

4 > 5 = 7 > 0

is as good as 5 atleat.

Zero,4,7,5

I was not ready enough for fanservice

7 has great graphics, smooth gameplay and some neat features like turbulence and freezing cockpit canopies (even if those are woefully underutilized) but fucking christ there's not a single mission I'd want to replay from that game after playing for a few months. I always wanna go back and play some missions from 5 and Zero but 7 just has nothing but gimmick missions and the missions that are normal are underwhelming and/or frustrating to play. Who the fuck thought holding triangle on a yellow target for 5 seconds at close range to ID them before you can attack was a good idea?

zero>6>7>4>5

5>0>7>6>3>4>2 (3ds remake)

It definitely has too many gimmick missions but I enjoy most of them so eh, I'm fine with it
I just wish it had X's story branching and something like Zero's ace type system, those two things would ass a ton of replay value. And wingmen like in 5, they weren't very useful but they made the game super comfy. Maybe they'll do something nice like that in AC8

whats the best way of running this game on a absolute toaster with good graphics?

the pirated version runned like butter but now that i bought the fucking thing is running like shit

What's your specs?

I ran it maxed out on a 1050ti@1080p, so it's definitely a great port.

this.

This is the first time I've ever bought a season pass and I did it purely so that Project Aces got my money

Attached: file.png (652x530, 114K)

Do you have a ps4? Because it's a locked 60fps on ps4 base. 1080p.

There are some mods that disable stuff like chromatic aberration but I doubt that would net you any fps gains. Try searching for any mods that turn down the grafix.

Yeah, your PC is shit, you aren't gonna be able to play it, the minimum is a 750ti, which is slightly better than a PS4.

Do I get all the DLC if I have a season pass?

I'm waiting til all the DLC is out to finally 100% the game

i dont what is happening like i said when i pirated the thing it did run flawlessly 30fps with a decent resolution and no drops
. then i bought it and now it runs less flawlessly.

Probably some update fucked up the optimization a bit. Have you tried overclocking your hardware?

with a 10 years old processor?
i dont even going to try it
i going to buy a less toastery pc at the end of the year anyway.

Jesus, this a Favelamonkey/spic tier PC.

>Do I get all the DLC if I have a season pass?
Yes.
According to Kono this season pass is the only DLC planned. I'm assuming after this is done they'll be 100% focused on AC8.

>AC8.
is it confirmed already?

Well im going to say it but your cpu isn't that good enough to have the game and denuvo at the background at the same time. but as you said you should be getting a new pc by the end of the year, so now you can just continue playing with the pirated version if you really want to.

Yes.

oh
i wanted HD versions of 4/5/0 before 8

nah i playing the steam version
i finished 4/5/zero and the psp ones at shitty framerate on the emulator earlier this year

Literally never going to happen and that's not me saying it, Kono himself has confirmed time and time again it's not happening.

4>7>0>3>6>5

So what is the proper way to get into this series? I played a little bit of 5 and enjoyed it a lot actually but I feel like I was going out of order. Am I supposed to start with 3? How the fuck do I play the good version though with the animated cutscenes? Do I need a high end pc to play it?

...

Order isn't very important but most common way is 4 -> 5 -> 0 and then whatever you want after that. 3 is good but very weird. There's a patch for the English versions that you can google that restores the Japanese content. The PS2 games are pretty high on the list of hard to emulate games but I can run them at 2x native resolution 60fps on my midrange 2014 desktop. Just make sure you look up how to configure the emulator right. 7 runs well for a current gen game.

Yeah it did. Low IQ dumbass

That was only for a few hours in only Australia

>""""best selling"""" game of the week it came out in a month when literally zero other games even came out

Wow! Amazing! It didn't sell well, fuck off.

None of the previous games except 4 sold well at all. That's the only one that was over a million. 7 didn't sell for shit and the budget was exponentially larger because the VR meme.

0 > 5 > 4 > 7
What 7 does well it does really well, but I think it stumbles a lot with its missions. There's only a few I actually want to replay.

Wait so do you have to own the season pass in order to play this DLC?

Are they free or you gotta pay ?

yes

I hope AC8 is set in the late 2020's/early 2030's and has all the concept 6th gens we've been seeing in it.
Supposedly, 7 is the best selling game in the series and 04 sold ~2 million copies.

Will there be another season pass or what. I mean all this season pass shit started with EA acting high and mighty removing battlefield premium status.

>Will there be another season pass or what.
Probably not

Ive never heard of a game that makes you buy a dlc just for three missions before

>arguing with a faggot
7 sold the best out of all games. And if we take into account that 7 was made with the cash earned by previous games we can safely assume 8 will hold the standard.

Ace Combat 7 suffers from obvious cuts. Like it's pretty clear that there was supposed to be a branching path where you blow up the space elevator, and every part(mage, spare, LRSSG, post-cascade) feels like it could have used like 3 more missions to feel fleshed out. There's also the part where you get Erusean conservatives and radicals marked with special designators when there's no actual distinction between them. The evidence of cutting is there. I think one of the symptoms of this is that almost every mission is a gimmick mission. There are almost no missions where you just blow shit up. The thought process I'm imagining is that they were told the game had to come out now with a bunch of missions half done, and they had the choice between finishing the gimmick missions and the normal ones. They chose the gimmick ones because they already had unique assets and mechanics partially done and didn't want to have to waste that work, and because they'd rather cut a mission that's similar to other missions than cut something that has nothing else like it. End result being that there just aren't enough normal missions where you just play Ace Combat 7.

Nothing can beat AC memes

>There are almost no missions where you just blow shit up.
Mission 6, 11, and the first halves of 8, 15, and 19 are exclusively blowing shit up. And that's also not counting straightforward missions that have zero gimmicks that might as well just be blowing shit up like 1, 2, 3, 5 (once weapons are disengaged), and 18.

I don't think it will take that long, 4 years is a bit excessive considering the tech is already done. Time between AC4 to AC5 was 3 years and AC5 to AC0 only took 2.
2.5 years, maybe 3 max is what I'm guessing.

And to 7's credit, none of the gimmick missions are as obnoxious as 5's

I bought AC7 on sale and got filtered so fucking hard on mission 4 that I haven't gone back out of sheer embarrasment and shame after I accidentally snapped my micro usb cable.
I was enjoying it up until that but dodging all those missiles and working under a timelimit to destroy those bomb carriers while all your team mouths you off was really driving me up the wall. Was it as hard for anyone else or am I just retarded? Should I go back? I'm playing on normal with the expert/classic handling. I was thinking of caving in and just using the special edition planes with better stats.

You gotta pay unless you bought the season pass. It's well worth it though considering how devoted Project Aces is to doing excellent work.

i guess is all about budget

Mission 4 was Harling rescue, you're thinking 5.
I don't know how you're not managing to deal with the bombers in time, the base can take a bit of punishment as well. Try zooming out the minimap, the bombers will be the red circles.

I wish AC did more civilian defense missions. The airport in 5 isn't particularly difficult but listening to everyone in the airport panic and report on how you're doing is great. The opening of 6 is also good in this regard, so is the airliner in 4.
I just don't get the same feel when I'm shooting down jets trying to bomb a military base.

You don't read too good, do you? Here's a hint: look at when the article was published.

You just need to practice friend. You can do it. Turn down the difficulty if you need to.

That one is easy peasy, just go fast and prioritize the red TGTs. Dont waste time on the escorts.

Okay then yeah, that one hurts you hard.
Basically just don't focus on anything else except the bombers. If you want a decent score you have to come back for it later with much better aircraft.

Same. I've aced all the PS2 era games but struggled massively with the score requirements for S ranks in 7.

I even went back to the older game after 7 to get a feel of why its different. The score and time requirement is definitely more strict.

Yeah, okay, I'm being half serious, but how the fuck do they top the best moments of the series without going too hard into Macross/anime territory? We've literally had everything in this franchise, gigantic air/ground fortresses, fighting in the fucking matrix, shooting down a gigantic nuke thing, fighting superplanes piloted by aces/AI's, flying through underground tunnels and geofronts, etc.

A change in perspective. An Ace Combat game where you play as the aggressor and change sides, like what we thought AC7 was going to be.

You switch it up and go back in time a little, playing as a mercenary working in various proxy conflicts in Strangereal's Cold War. Start with crap like the MiG-17 and later Sabre models, F-15, Su-27, and such are endgame planes. Be able to choose who exactly to work for, which can affect available aircraft, missions, etc. Plenty of opportunity to do a little more world-building for Strangereal too. Basically Ace Combat 88.

Trigger 1 is the most insane one because all the feats that trigger ace spawns are canon events. So you can say he canonically flew into caves and pretended to be shot out of a mass carrier in the middle of a civilian genocide. For fun.

The aggressors in 5 are Yukes. They attacked first, instigated by Belkans.

The first Gripen was delivered to Brazil this month. It's kind of a shame that we no longer have an aircraft carrier to launch them from anymore though.

I think his voice added some charm. Crux was clearly a young and inexperienced guy who suddenly found himself in charge of Aurelia's biggest trump card, imagine the responsibility he had on his shoulders. He saw himself as Gryphus's support rather than commander, and genuinely cared about him.

This, pretty much. I don't know if he's as good as Mobius 1 or Demon King of the Round Table but he's certainly the craziest one.

You're telling me that spending our failing nation's entire budget on a superweapon instead of rebuilding is NOT the smartest fiscal decision? Nonsense.

Then there were the faggots who would steamroll the bosses because of their maxed out equipment. And that was before they made it you could upgrade earlier planes to be ALMOST as comparable to later in the research tree.

you're not meant to view it from a photograph. if you sit in front of the screen with them perfectly flat and lined up it looks normal. and no ofc it's not perfect, the game doesn't officially support this at all. the widescreen hack gets completely lost if i tab out, another reason i can't play it in this resolution.

I really liked how during the final mission, you could hear all the other pilots physically struggling with the Gs they were taking to keep pace with the drones. It's the little things.

AC3 has all of those and is fucking amazing. The only "tasteless shit" here is you, retard.

I just did this mission for the first time just now. Pretty emotional t b h

I think they took some notes from the sound design on Assault Horizon. It went for a much 'grittier' kind of soundscape, including for how other pilots sounded. Tried to give it a quality that sounded more like it was being recorded in a cockpit. 7's sound design is much cleaner, but they kept a few little elements like that.

Because your misusing it.
Slap stealth level 2, missile range extenders, and go run circles around the furball circlejerk.

The Su-34 doesn't actually have a bathroom. It has a portable can that you can piss in. The whole "bathroom" thing was a misinterpretation of very early info about the plane.

The 23 was my favorite plane when the Morgan came out and all the fags were spamming IEWS. I would just abuse stealth and stay outside the range of their e-war bubble and fire HVAAs into it from long range and pick off the Pixyfags one by one. Really good times, I miss when every fag in the lobby was spamming Morgans, now I have to actually work for my Black Widow kills.

because before you could only unlock them after beating the game but now you can get them as soon as the mudhen/terminator or earlier if count plsl but plsl is actually very good

Some of the direction is questionable, and parts of the translation are objectively bad, but overall it's pretty good.

I sort of agree but i think parts of zero are better and the whole drone factory scene just felt really off. youtu.be/MOHFYqFIt8k?t=836

>Some of the direction is questionable
In comparison to 6 and 5 its downright naturalistic.
Most of the time they actually sound like people rather than an English anime dub.

It wouldn't be fun if lasers still oneshot people in multi even though single player and multi weapon stats are separate what the FUCK

the distorted radio voices really gave the game a touch, in the rest of the series voices sound clean but zero sounds like you're listening to old deteriorated tapes

It's not really fun when lasers one shot in single player either. It's entertaining for like ten minutes and then you use another plane because they're too overpowered to be fun.

Oooh actual story dlc. I'm intrigued.

videos description:
>*VR Mission 4:* Mobius 1 attacks a Free Erusean fuel base at Roca Roja. Phase 1 mirrors Cape Rainy, where Mobius 1 would fly at the base under radar while evading helicopter patrols. Phase 2 would entail destroying three fuel bases. Sky Eye says something about "a wakeup call," which makes me wonder if this was a night mission in Roca Roja. Would have been interesting.

*VR Mission 5:* Mobius 1 attacks a fleet, the two carrier strike groups Ran and Hronn. A new pilot joins the fray, Halo 11, aka Lt. Van Quang Nguyen. It is heavily implied that Quang is Sky Eye's son. Quang is shot down at the end of this mission while supporting a damaged Omega 11. Omega 11 bails out safely and successfully hails rescue with his EPIRB. Halo 11 is not recovered. Sky Eye laments Halo 11's death and openly wonders aloud what he'll tell Quang's mother.

*VR Mission 6:* The Boyz find out that Free Erusea is gunning for a nuclear sub that's currently under maintenance at Anchorhead Bay. Phase 1 entails a two-front defensive, protecting Red Bear and Meliton Squadrons in the north and south. Phase 2 entails an attack from a stealth plane squadron, one Sky Eye mistakes for the Ghost Squadron. This is actually the Arachne Squadron, who use E-767s to jam radar during their fight with The Boyz. In Phase 3, the Ghost Squadron arrives to wreck faces up, declaring that they will "avenge their friends." One of them breaks formation early, beelining for Mobius 1, and is warned by Ghost Leader, "don't engage the Ribbon Fighter solo, Quang!" His voice is identical to Halo 11. In the ensuing battle, Quang is the last to fall.

I DON'T LIKE THIS PUT IT BACK PUT IT BACK

Is this game good with a joystick? I used to love HAWX but this looks a lot better

better with a ps4 controller

Joystick+VR is pretty top tier. Its not designed around a HOTAS though, so if you don't have a VR set up to really make use of the immersive qualities of a stick, just use a gamepad.

If you liked HAWX, you'll love Ace Combat.
Especially since AC just does everything a lot better than HAWX ever did.

Nothing will ever top the Megalith commando squad in 4.

>the DLC trailer is better than the original trailer

don't fly in a straight line. it makes you an easy target for both missiles and guns

not really, it can't surpass stonehenge shooting after 20 years once more

Yes, the acting in 4 isn't that great overall (they hired a company that normally did phone messages or something instead of real actors) but the commando leader with the British accent is pretty good regardless.

More importantly, the lines themselves are far more memorable than anything in AC7.

Also, the fact that they didn't use anime VAs makes it feel more authentic in a way.

4 feels like the most grounded/ down to earth of the ace combats doesn't it?

Yes, its the best written Ace Combat by a country mile. It strikes a perfect balance between character drama and military coms chatter.
Ace Combats afterwards lean a bit too much towards characters monologuing over the radio.

It follows ISAF's campaign to take back the continent in a three act structure:
1. The defense of North Point, starting with defending against enemy bombing raids and ending with crippling the invasion fleet.
2. Striking at the continent, covering the ground forces' landing and destroying Stonehenge.
3. Pushing the Erusians back to their capital and ultimately defeating them.

There's no crazy twists, no political moralizing, no betrayals from wingmen. You just follow the course of the war and see the legend of Mobius 1 grow.

In addition, it's also the best implementation of the rival enemy squadron, which goes from untouchable and legitimately intimidating to just being able to scratch one, to shooting one down to shooting them all down over the course of the game.

I think 4 is the best written war story in ace combat due to its mundane nature but i still really like joint assault

Wanting to be liked is a little too far, but hoping they wouldn't set bombs trying to murder him/point guns at him while calling him a fascist isn't asking that much. Or at least it's reasonable for him to think that.
