Ace Combat general thread

Best mission ever

FUCK YES

I didn't know anyone on /v/ liked Ace Combat games. I just started replaying 5 tonight.

>>67344806
Ace Combat's /v/'s holy grail, just like Monster Hunter.

>>67344806
Every Ace Combat thread I see has lots of people that like the games, they're just so good.

My face when I played the first mission.

>>67344632
>"all aircraft follow Mobius 1!"
>using Yellow 13's Terminator

Spy around here.

Never got around to buying 6. How does it stand up to the ones on PS2?

ACE COMBAT GENERAL?
ACE COMBAT GENERAL!

>>67345150
Not as good, but you have full control of your squadron.

4, 5 and Zero are probably the best ones.

>>67344806
We have Ace Combat general threads everyday, but posts come slowly.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rvdEq6bDt9U

>>67345327
Really? I'm on here a lot, but I guess I never see them.

>>67345397
It's one of those game series you HAVE to play once in your life.

THEY HAVE FLAMETHROWERS

>>67345150
Apart from the corny as hell story line, and the fact that nobody acknowledges your total ass-kcickery as per every other Ace Combat ala; Cipher, THE DEMONLORD OF THE ROUND TABLE it is the prettiest Ace Combat around damn beautiful clouds mang. Gameplay mechanics, battle systems, wingmen AI, and just overall gameplay is superior. Don't forget about online as well.

Also, The Idom@ster livery :3c

>>67345606
Awesome music as well, as is expected in an Ace Combat.

If your gonna play AC 6 you gotta try and find the flight stick, found mine at gamestop for 20 bucks. Any usb flight stick might work though, not sure

>>67344806

THE BEST!

HOLY SHIT! Nice find. Ausbro here, I don't think there is a single one in the country.

>>67345962

SECOND! I have one too but I payed 29

just played some AC6 versus today it's pretty much dead there was just ONE faggot with only the F-16,F-18,and Mirage2000 available

I mean I can understand not wanting OPerd shit in but damn all you need to cut out is F-22 and the CF-Nosferu(sp)

>>67346103
In AC6, I felt more empathy towards Strigon's Ilya Pasternak, one of the main bosses. he took on the whole Emmerian Air-force, including yourself so his squad team could escape with their lives ;_;

>>67345962
Oh my god. I have wanted one of those forever but I can only find them online for inane prices.

>>67346422
When you say bosses, do you mean it's still got dem duels?

If so, I'm hunting a copy down post haste

>>67346546
Yes

>>67346546
except they have fucking weeaboo magic planes instead of real ones.

fuck, Zero is just so much better.

>>67344476

>>67346705
>fucking weeaboo magic planes

Umm, this is Ace Combat bro, not Over-G Fighters. Not exactly the most "realistic flight sims" around for consoles.

any other flight games for 360 besides AC6? I know that there's over g fighters and hawx

>>67346734

>>67346955
There are a few WWII-based flight-sims. IL-2: Birds of Prey being one of them.

>>67346825
Yeah, while the FALKEN was pushing it, they just went over the line with the sci-fi planes in AC6. I was fine with super-weapons and shit, but when they stuck that plane that instantly moves and jams radar and makes drones which are beacons for more explosions and missiles, I got pretty eh.

And then you get it, and I finished the campaign on Ace in a little under five hours because the X16 missiles are just redunkolus

>>67346955
>>67347041
Also, Project Sylpheed, it's Ace Combat in the year 3000 or something and in space.

>>67347058
Umm, you do have a choice of not using it bro.

Really liked what they did in Ace Combat X

New game play mechanics made it awesome. All of them in general are awesome.

QAAM ACE COMBAT 4

I've just finished AC 5 today. That trench run, man... damn.

>>67347041
>>67347109

Have you played them? any good?

>>67347186
YEAH MAN BUT I HAD TO
IT WAS SO FUNNY
then I just kept using the cherry blossom F-14 they released a bit ago with pink missile trails that actually made it useful in the multiplayer since it got improved turning.

Though, SU-27 and SAAM is just unfair.

You now realize Ace Combat will never grace a Sony system ever again.

>>67347058

Don't ever play AC3.

>>67347309
I can't find them ;_;

Gaming Room HD has gameplay footage, looks awesome.

>>67347329
Oh god, please no

Is it just me or was Strigon Team just too over-the-top evil sounding? All sniveling into their mikes like "STREEEEEEGON TEAM, REPORTING IN, EHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE".

I mean, agressors in previous AC games were mostly just out to do their job - even Ofnir and Grabacr didn't sound as CRAZY EVIL as the Strigon fliers.

>>67347328
>pink missile trails

:3c

>>67347329

>>67347437
Bought all o' them too
namco has me by the balls

>>67347422
Estovakians are just assholes in general, except for Pasternak;_;

God, i remember when I started this mission. Everyone using your callsign, i was like "fuck yeah!"

And then the yellows, who have been built up the entire game as unstoppable badasses, start shitting themselves because they know you are gonna fuck their world. Makes you feel like such an epic badass. One of the best moments in vidya history imo

>>67347597
These games make you feel like a badass in a way no other game can.

>>67347597
Feel bad for the poor kid at the bar though. His best friend was killed by Mobius 1.

Oh dear, the king of flight sims laughs at your casual console game's pathetic attempts to convey air combat.

>>67347667

That's right. FUCKING GRIM REAPER RAZGRIZ DEMON LORD OF THE ROUND TABLE COMING TO FUCK YOUR SHIT UP

You suck

>>67347718

>>67347859
Now that's just ridiculous.

The creators of AC sure love dem Star Wars - a trench run in every game, and that search and rescue mission in the snow from AC5 was lifted straight from Hoth.

Space shuttle was here. Everything else is smalltime.

Awwww shit I was just thinking that we needed another AC/flight sim thread

>>67347718
I'm content with this. Atleast it has online.

>>67348082

That was one of the few times I didn't skip the takoff parts. Getting off of that listing ship was awesome but sad.

>>67347721
Hell yeah motherfucker. Cipher was AND still is the most badass Ace Combat protagonist IMHO. Pixy was jealous of him, so wanted to kill him to take his badassery crown himself.

>>67348192

Why did he have to zap PJ, that fucker. Still, PJ had it coming with his whole "Imma go back to my girl and make her my wife"-thing.

I can;t hear you over Megalith's Awesome music.

QAAM is the most broken weapon in the game. Use it on all dogfighting situations.

Fuck yes, tried that shit too. Twas so cash.

I made this wallpaper a few days ago by a screenshot this website:

There are also General Resources LTD., Data Swallow, and UPEO themes.

Best Fucking Mission was Ac5.

Squadrons of airplanes from countries you are at war with 5 minutes ago form up on you to take on a common threat, its night, patriotic singing in the background, HIGH SPEED TUNNEL RUN, HOLY FUCK HIGH SPEED PASS, PITCH RIGHT, FUUUUCCCCKKKKK

I shat tears of joy.

>>67344693

my god i just got falcon punched by nostalgia

i felt like a god when i was playing this mission

>>Heroes really do exist... and there is one coming home right now

Are there any games like Ace Combat on PC.

I've only played a bit of H.A.W.X. Are there any others?

>>67349713
>I shat tears of joy.

You're not eating enough fibre bro.

>>67349713

Too bad that when you fuck up the tunnel run, you have to replay all that shit all over again.

I hit the last tunnel door twice. Shit was trolltastic.

Man Ace Combat games are always stroking your egocock.
Fucking AC5 made you feel like a fucking bringer of death.
HOLY SHIT THE GHOSTS OF RAZGRIZ WE THOUGH YOU WERE DEAD WE RE FUCKED NOW ARRRRRRGH
The Demons of Razgriz phase was even crazier

>>67349850
PC HAS NOACECOMBAT

>>67349850
HAWX is the only one that handles and plays close enough to be a Ace Combat clone.

I've played a lot of other "Ace Combat Clones" for the PS2 and Xbox360 that didn't handle enough like AC. Lethal Skies, Airforce Delta Storm, and ZeroG Fighters.

>>67349850
HAWX is more SERIOUS BUSINESS then AC, so not as many moments of awesome.

Oh fuck you OP, I have to be at work in 7 hours.

My new X52 Pro was DOA. No way to return or repair it unless I buy a new one and return the dead one, and since it's Fry's I'm worried I won't get a full refund. Considering just eating the losses.

However, I got the patches on the left earlier this week, so it kinda balances out.

http://micnax.webs.com/stream.html

GET THE FUCK IN THERE FOR SOME AC 4

>>67349886
Ace Combat 04 is barely emulateable and HAWX is a decent AC clone...

I love the dynamic cut-scenes in Ace Combat Zero.

>>67350077
Yuke patches = preorder bonus for AC5, procured from eBay.
Osea patches = see above
Wardog patch = AC5 FlightStick 2 bundle.

These are also from eBay. It's a beautiful fuckin' website, bro.

>>67349975
Hiya Over-G :3c

>>Yellow 13: do you guys really hate us that much?

>>67350162

Not to mention FUCKING ESPADA.

You'd wonder how the guy in the couple manages to outmaneuver you in a starter plane.

>>67350192

>filename

So true. I'd wear the fuck out of it though.

Maybe sew that Wardog patch onto my leather jacket.

>>67350109
Menus slow, most plugins cause large, vertical white bars to flash randomly on the screen, emulator crashes often.

I've tried playing different regions of AC04 with the emulator, since some have a better compatability rating, but nothing noteworthy.

This was about a year ago, though. So it may have gotten better. But I think PS2 emu devs focus primarily on RPG compatiability.

>>67350229

I shot them down as soon as intercept you. harder still was flying all around the map killing off those other Aces for the Assault Record WHILE still having time to kill off the XB-0

>>67350259
XMAA's in their faces at the start of the mission. You'll get at least one of them, even in ACE difficulty.

>>67350340
ah, fuck this then.

http://micnax.webs.com/stream.html

GET IN THERE MISSION 01 IS JUST STARTING

>>67350398 harder still was flying all around the map killing off those other Aces for the Assault Record WHILE still having time to kill off the XB-0

Oh, that was easy for me.

Even though I've beaten Espada Sq. several times, it's still the part that you can get into a long dogfight with them that irks me.

But I do get good shots with standard missiles.

>>67350299
The Wardog patch is like a foot tall. Only worthy place to sew it would be the back of a jacket. I have two so I'm seriously considering buying a bomber jacket to do just that. I've already got way too much stuff proclaiming my love for the series, might as well go all the way - I've thought about buying a flightsuit and using the Osea patches to cosplay Blaze since there's no canon appearance.

Pic related, FALKEN model kit.

>>67350259
Espada is a flight of Rafale-Ms, I'm pretty sure. You're thinking of Silber, which is led by a guy in an F-4E.

>>67350648
How much was the Patch?

Shooting down planes using only the gun feels so goddamned satisfying. Especially at awkward approach angles.

I sweep in low and use the gun on ground targets as often as I can. Except against SAMs.

Playing in Ace dificulty is one of my gaming highlights. Knowing than even a stupid AA Gun can rape you and a single missile is game over makes for some intense experience.

>>67350648

Naw, Espada 1 flies a Draken starter plane. Espada 2 is the lady with the Rafale

>>67350780
Too bad Ace of Aces is a DLC. Will get them though when my mate is finished with my AC6. Over-G Fighters has gotten me back into Ace Combat, flight-sims.

>>67350742
Are you me?! I love using the gun and fuck as much as I can just with the gun.

>>67350703
Which one? Spare Wardog patch and Osea set was $20, Yuke set was $15, but I had to go out of my way to convince the guy to sell them since he was trying to bundle it with a flightstick.

Glad you reminded me about Over-G Fighters. For a game my tripname comes from I forgot how enjoyable it is.

And then my wingman ran into me as I was closing in for a gun kill on a B-52. FFFFFFFFF-

>>67350916
Wardog, but you said eBay right? Can't find them ;_; Would kill for a GALM patch that big.

I'm not sure which one is my absolute favorite, but I think Ace Combat 4 had the best super weapons. AC6 sucked ass in that department.

>>67351004
Yep. The only reason the Wardog patch is so common is because it came with the AC5 stick bundle.

Also, ignore the name because it's not going to be anything like the other games in the series, but it looks like there's ANOTHER arcade flight game coming out this fall:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=59lD1lVRUtc

So that's AC Joint Assault, Apache Air Assault (hurray for Gaijin Entertainment!), and now Janes Advanced Strike Fighters - which has a motherfucking PAK-FA, holy shit.

Also HAWX 2, but who gives a shit.

>>67351214

The Aegaion was pretty cool. But otherwise, eh...

>>67351214
>AC6
>CF-44
>ADMM
>Not overpowered

Well, someone has played this in at least Hard difficulty.

Edge was all over your dick in AC5. I approve.

>>67351770
You know, I never really got the appeal of blowjobs, but I think I'd approve in Edge's case because it'd at least get her to shut up.

Oh, and she IS all over your dick in AC5 because Blaze married her by AC3's timeframe.

>>67348662

People constantly mislabel Ace Combat as a Simulator game. It's as much a Flight Simulator as Castlevania is a Whip Simulator.

>>67351846
>hating on Edge
I like you.Annoying bitch is well, annoying

>>67351846

Didn't you have a kid with her in the AC5 epilogue, or something like that?

>>67350648 You're thinking of Silber, which is led by a guy in an F-4E.

I don't recall Silber being ludicrously good. Even Rot was a better challenge, and that's two levels down the warrior spectrum.

Besides, Knight is essentially easy mode.

>>67351214
>>67351214
The Arkbird
The fucking Arkbird.
"ok guys your mission today is to bring down a FUCKING IMPERIAL STAR DESTROYER... good luck!"

>>67351879
That's one of the cool things about it. It doesn't try very hard to put up the facade that it's realistic, yet eventually you start to feel it anyway... even though it's arcade style all the way.

>>67351879
80 missiles on a F-14 that doesn't handle like a boat in mud.

I think they call it a 'simulator' because you have to roll your plane to turn rapidly and your pitch doesn't level out when you let go of the joystick.

>>67351937
I loved how The Arkbird was tied into the storyline.

Excalibur and XB-0 were kind of spontaneous.

FOX 2 FOX 2!

>>67351900
I like Edge. I just want her to shut up. Hopefully Blaze fucked the stupid out of her by the time AC3 rolled around.

>>67351968
>F-14 that doesn't handle like a boat in mud.

Play Over-G Fighters, it's exactly like that.

>>67351936

Silber squadron was nice because they FREAK THE FUCK OUT if you down their leader. It really changes their flying style.

>>67351937

THE FUCKING ARKBIRD, THAT FUCKING LASER, THAT FLIGHT PATTERN

I had more trouble with the Arkbird than I did with the SOLG.

>>67352054
That's where I got that analogy from. :3c

>>67352090
:3c

dat crater

>>67352030

XB-0 got some mentions in the previous missions, like when you uncover a HUGE FUCKING HANGAR and your guys are like "Hmm, what's up with that?".

Excalibur was just LOL I ZAP YOU NIGGA

>>67352192
I saw Excalibur coming from a million miles away. I mean first time I played it "Hmmm... this is not just another escort mission...."

>>67352068
Also, UAVs. UAVs everywhere.

66th, are there still people doing Over-G Fighters multiplayer (especially if you can fight against AI opponents)? Apparently one of the Big Boss fights requires you to get a multiplayer-only rank.

>>67352272

Pretty much every time the game goes "This is a routine escort/patrol mission" IT WON'T BE A ROUTINE MISSION

>>67352283
Just had my first dip into multi player, yeah, but not as much as AC6, which is kinda sad. Trying to convince my mate to get a copy so we can play. Bastard has had my AC6 for the past 2 months.

>>67352438
My brother and I fired up some AC0 multiplayer about a week ago. We only did a few dogfighting rounds in the same F-15. Pretty fun.

>>67351937
>>67352068

Sup guys, wanna fight?

>>67352402

Earlier Ace Combat games (especially those before 04) had pretty routine escort missions. And enemy units did strike hard during those missions.

An instance of a routine escort mission in a more recent Ace Combat game that I can recall is that mission in Zero where you guard the Kestrel and her fleet through a strait.

>>67352556

Fuck no ;_;

>>67352524
I remember those days with my 4 brothers, who ever loses passes-on the controller My Dual-Shock never left my hands

>>67352438
I don't get on too often, but I go by ValkyrieRaptor on XBL. Might see about rounding up some /v/irgins for AC6 or Over-G Fighters one of these days. Last time we did it was about a year ago and it was me, Lobster, Hustler One, and one or two anons on Ace Combat 6. Good times had by all.

>>67352743
I'll add ya'll once I get my hand on my AC6 tomorrow.

>>67352643


Hmmm, I dont remember a mission like that in 0. You sure it wasn't 5?

>>67352556

Well you look pretty much like a Concorde so I don't thinWAIT WHAT THOSE TINNY LINES ARE MY SQUADRON?!

>>67352859
It's Zero, but it's one of three operations for that mission you select before the mission starts, so you might have missed it. "Juggernaut" plays during the mission, if you're familiar with the soundtrack at all.

>>67352859

The Kestrel was in Zero. What, you missed it?

>>67352859
Missed an aircraft carrier?

>>67353586
But he must have re-played the game for every mission right?

I still think that Ustio = Poland with some mix of Switzerland.

MOBIUS 19 ENGAGING

>>67353749

He should.

Hell, certain mission splits don't even have alignment requirements.

>>67353804

Austria + Switzerland?

It wasn't her.

>>67352995
>>67353216
>>67353362
>>67353586

I guess so. That or my memory is screwing with me. I havent played any of the Ace Combats on my PS2 in a couple years. Next time I go home I'll definitely spend some quality time with them.

>>67353819

MOBIUS 31 HERE, TAKE THAT SHOT 19

>>67353901

Come to think about it, the Kestrel had a smaller role in the story back then. I shat bricks at the first mention of the Kestrel when I came across that split, having played 5 not too long ago.

>>67353715
Fun Fact: A lot of the things in Zero are named after creatures in norse mythology.

Galm/Garm
Hraesvlgr
and a bunch of other shit I forget.

>>67354145
That's because the Kestrel is a NOTHING back then. Remember, Zero predates every single AC game. The only close one is AC2 and that's on the Usean continent.

>>67354145
AC:Zero is chock-full of canon AC:5 references. Seeing as it's supposed to be a prequel.

>>67354172

It's not just in Zero. It's all over the place.

>>67354172
Norse myth and English legend. Hence Excalibur, Avalon, etc.

Not to mention the whole knight/soldier/mercenary and plane jousting thing.

>>67354172

I thought it had more to do with King Arthur shit. Like "The Round Table" and the super weapon "Excalibur"

ace combat is the most enjoyable flying-game-thingy :3

>>67354259
Yup.

Fenrir and Gleipnir in Ace Combat X.

>>67353893
Getting annexed by other countries = Poland getting annexed
Belkan War = WW2
Belka = Germany
Ustio seceding from Belka = Poland regaining independence before WW2
Round Table = English Channel
Ustio not thanked after the Belkan War = Same with Poland after WW2

But yeah, now that I think about it, I see some connections to Austria so I guess you have a point.

Ustio = Austria+Poland+Switzerland.

>>67354434
I'm mad that the canon ending to ACX is Diego Navarro escaping Leasath with the Fenrir plans.

Fenrir is the predecessor to the XFA-36 GAME

>>67351976
>My face when Megalith is in the shape of an angel

>>67354242

Heartbreak One makes an appearance, as does "Pops" as Huckebein the Raven.

>>67354988

Did not miss that one. T'was something to see even as you fought the enemy ace squadron that appears.

MISSILES AWAY

>>67354649 the canon ending to ACX is Diego Navarro escaping Leasath with the Fenrir plans.

GOD DAMN IT NAVARRO

ACX felt more related to AC3 than any other Ace Combat game to me.

SHACK ON THE TARGET

HARD ENEMY RADAR SPIKE

Razgriz here, Mobius is shit tier

>>67354242
The Belkan war IS the seat of the conflict in AC5

>>67355651

Well, not Osea vs Yukes directly but all the Belkans and the Grey Men are still pissed about the Belkan War, yeah.

>>67355257
No doubt because the aircraft in the game are blatantly the earliest forms of the standard aircraft used in AC3's Corporation Wars.
