All I can think of when listening to the story and in-game chatter in these games is, I think they'd be a lot more fun if all the dialogue was replaced with a voice pack like Lunethex uses over in the Battlezone LP. Does anyone take these games' stories and characters seriously?

Its one of the more enjoyed parts of the series, especially the in game chatter. It is extremely fun when by the midgame the enemy collectively flips their poo poo at the very sight of your emblem.

I've been thinking this for years, but I would love to see AC 6 style missions with Joint Assault style multiplayer. Because it was fun to bomb around through the campaign with even a bunch of pubbies and just be pretty much be what a squadron composed of Mobius 1, Cypher, Phoenix and Nemo, or any other setup of the player characters would look like. Sadly it was very limited, being on the PSP and all, plus for the most part being limited to the missions balanced for single player, with the special missions being the only exceptions. But if you had that style of multiplayer on an AC 6 battlefield, with multiple sub missions going on at the same time, it would be pretty drat cool.

Imagine. While a couple dudes are going at it in a massive furball on one side of the map, their buddies are escorting the ground troops, but making a game of it by seeing who can destroy the most targets with only supersonic bombing runs. A mission update has an ace squadron a dozen strong spawn in, but your combined alpha strike takes out half of them before they get in range.

As an aside, I can see all the AC protagonists as disciplined, calm and collected soldiers who are grimly doing their duty. Except the Joint Assault one. That one I just see as some idiot in a superplane whooping and hollering or cackling madly as they keep the afterburners on at all times, getting into a competition with their wingmates to see who can do the most damage this time. I probably spent too much time on the multiplayer mode of that game.
