HOTLANTA MAN posted:This game definitely does the one-man-army thing the best, while Ace Combat 6 is best at the "you're just part of a larger war" thing. The only issue with 6 was the abysmal script, and a fair chuck of that was probably the translator's fault. Gameplay wise, it was some of the best in the series.

Covering up the melodramatic anime stories of Ace Combat would defeat the purpose of playing Ace Combat.

If I remember right, none of 5's superplanes are carrier capable, you're stuck with things like the Rafale at the high end for a few missions. Which seems like a weird choice, given the occasional plot elements mentioned above.

I mean, if you couldn't S rank Sea of Chaos in a Rafale, then it's not like the FALKEN was really going to help you.

ninjahedgehog posted:I hope they bring back 6's semi-permanent missile trails and smoke. Dogfights in that game looked absolutely insane after a few passes. This was the thing that struck me first about 6, actually. I knew going into it that it had a focus on mass combat and hundred plane fights and stuff, but the fact that they actually created some reasonable smoke and vapor physics surprised me and having a badass afterimage of your fight stick around for a few minutes really helped sell the scale. It was a pretty uniquely AC6 thing, too, I can't think of any other flight games that bothered with that particular bit of flair.

They're both pretty powerful but for wildly different reasons. I never knew about that particular edit so seeing that scene with such a massively different tone behind it is interesting.

That was a hell of a final Yellow kill, at least. You can rag on the recording all you want, but that part made up for it. I still hold to the opinion that Yellow 13 is the hardest of the Boss Aces in the franchise. It probably has something to do with most of the other examples being in ridiculous super planes with gimmicks like Knightly Jousting or literal Macross scenarios, whereas 13 is just a conventional enemy with his various parameters turned up to eleven, but none of the other showdown bosses have really compared, I feel. There's something to say for ending a storyline with a slugfest between two opponents who play by the same rules (relatively, anyway. Player SUs don't turn like that) in a franchise rife with anti-orbital super cannons and Arthurian laser planes. Also Cipher obviously died on the way back to his home planet. I have an actual dumb joke Cipher theory I came up with way back when I first played these games and would still do poo poo like this, but it involves spoilers for AC5 - Demon Lord of the Round Table? Demons of Razgriz? Coincidence? Hah. Cipher and Blaze are the same dude and it's not just some jackass pilot who's good at doing pilot things, this is a literal demonic reaper of Belkan souls. That's why he never fought any of the wars in between the Belkan war and the Yuke war in 5 - No Belkans to kill in those. Cipher/Blaze is simply a manifestation of the universe's contempt for Belka's cartoonishly evil ways. If only Pops knew that the being he was fixing lovely F-5s for had tried to kill him 15 years or whatever earlier. Psycho Landlord fucked around with this message at 20:25 on Jan 15, 2017 |

No reference to Bishop's most famous QTE, 0/10.

Doesn't the final yellow get a massive boost to his AI when he's the last one in the air? Or am I imagining things?

Yeah I thought so. I dunno, that might be a pretty good case for it being 13, is what I'm getting at. Although I guess some random no-name Yellow suddenly fighting like a man possessed and then dying anonymously while his already dead squad leader is credited with his actions would be suitably tragic for Ace Combat.

Since this project has started, I have been more excited for 6 than any other game in this series. The juxtaposition of awe at the cool-rear end giant missions and sheer horror at the between-mission cutscenes is going to be wonderful.

So, AC7 on PC, and with a shitload of references to the best Macross to boot, huh? I didn't know I was capable of making the noise I am making right now.
