Also, what the gently caress is wrong with all of you? I know I said Cipher is an acceptable substitute for Phoenix, but loving Bishop of all people is beating Phoenix too?!

I didn't remember what game William Bishop was from so I thought it meant Canadian WWI ace Billy Bishop, and, well :canada:

I'm slowly playing through 5 now, and I had way more trouble with Fortress than Four Horsemen. Had to trade up to a Raptor just to have enough missiles to not have to guns kill every single ground target in the last third of the mission, and I hate using the Raptor/Terminator. And this is on normal.

New Ace Combat 7 trailer is out.
Also confirmed that the game isn't PS4 exclusive and is coming for XB1.
And PC. :woop:

If you're not flying the whole thing in a polished-metal F-104 I don't wanna know ya

(I will not be doing this, because A. I suck and B. My skills are weak and bad)

My computer slowed to a chug trying to play Assault Horizon but parts of it are hell of old

Friend pointed out to me that the trailer's last shot is totally a Macross Plus reference.

Looking forward to YF-19 and YF-21 as secret planes!

Ahahaha you're right, holy gently caress

And there's the cockpit shots of that weird proto-Coffin thing, the talk of a "suit" being not quite up to speed, and the drone-barfing air carrier

This is a loving Macross Plus game, isn't it

I'm holding out for the "Stealth" plotline where an AI pilot is struck by lightning and become self-aware or something.

The part where the plot whiteboi and the AI threw down against two SU-37s was still the most Ace Combat and therefore best part of the movie

Yes, in Ace Combat 5 yes it is! And it's the best thing ever! But we can't show you that because it's spoilers, so instead here is its first appearance.


edit: I mean I know I have done literally nothing but joke and gaff about it for this entire thread but this is a really good trailer

As soon as I posted that title, I got nostalgic for old flight sims like Chuck Yeager's Air Combat, that actually did have a blackout/redout mechanic

Can't remember if you could also rip your wings off overloading the plane, I always turned most of the realism off and basically rolled like a proto Ace Combat pitchin gobs of Sparrows at a B-29
