6 had those stupid super cluster missiles fired by a large rail gun in the arctic. It also had an airborne aircraft carrier and flying support battleships.

There was a mission in one of the games where you had to fly through a final piece of falling debris to destroy it I think.

drat and I thought flying out the top of the missile silo in 4 was cool. I need to catch up on this series

So I guess the VR mode includes stuff from AC4?

They call out Mobius 1, and I swear the song playing is from that game (though it's been a long time since I played).

Are you thinking of the SOLG at the very end of the game? You don't HAVE to fly through it to destroy it but you CAN if you want to. I'd always get behind it to start shooting it down only to get killed by a solar panel flying off.

One other thing I liked about 4 is that after every mission, it replays your flight path including your orientation, so you get to see how many times you flew in circles like an idiot while you were trying to catch a Yellow.

so nobody said it in here yet but the preorder bonuses for the game are AC5 if you're preordering it on PSN, or AC6 if on Xbox (via backwards capability, which it's not actually a part of yet).

Will 5 be available on its own?


I kinda want to play this with VR but don’t want to get it knowing I’ll only use it for this game. It’ll prob look better on xbone too

Wait there's a PS4 version of AC5 coming out? Or are they gonna put them on the PS2 list. I hope they put 0 out that way bc my disc is scratched

Yeah I think it's supposed to just be one of those PS2-to-PS4 games, though, so just emulated. I'm not sure there's any details because it's only mentioned in the list of preorder bonuses.

i think that the last mission in 5 is one of the best final boss fights in games. the villians are completely spent, know they're gonna lose,and deorbit a satellite just as mutually assured destruction. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8xtUyn9M9mE

There was nothing particularly wrong with 6 except for the dialogue being extra lame (or not lame enough?) and the fact that it was exclusive to Xbox. If you pre-order 7 for Xbox you get a copy of 6 which was not previously backwards compatible.

Is 6 gonna be available without a preorder at some point?

Are there any good flight sticks for the xbone or ps4? I was also considering VR but as cool as that would be I can’t think of any other cool VR games.
