He always hits me with his missiles before I get close enough to fire without him dodging. And then there's the broken A.I. that makes him not turn around to face you and he goes back in to his regular evasion patterns so you have to wait - which brings me to another shit thing about the mission is the time limit. First two sections I can get through, but six minutes is barely enough for the third when you're waiting on shitty A.I.
I know it's going to be the kind of thing where I play it 6 or 7 more times before eventually beating it, while doing the exact same thing each time.

This is my #1 issue with Ace Combat 4. Don't give me any of that "it lets you approach the mission however you want!" bullshit. The faggots that say that are no better than the morons who say open world games are good on-principle just because "you can go anywhere you want and do things in any order".
That being said, AC7 isn't too bad in this regard. I've been really frustrated with a few missions but it's never reached the fatigue I felt while playing through AC4.

This is probably my biggest complaint about 7 so far
mechanically the game plays great, but mission wise it's offering nothing that previous games didn't already do/have, like zero switched it up by having a variety of targets that you could choose from which was great compared to the "destroy everything" previous games did
I also want to know why they never brought back the major ace fights from zero because those were stupid fun, especially with the ability to fight different aces based on how you've been playing

Good job I didn't have any drink in my mouth to spit out, due to how to cringe-inducing some of the radio chatter is.
If it isn't bad dialogue, they never shut up with nonsense. Well, at least they're not telling me to not fly in a straight line repeatedly this time around.
I've noticed this over the last two decades that Japs love to "tell" with a lot of dialogue instead of justing "show" when it comes to a narrative. I remember way back when I was into script writing and when my amateur scripts were looked at by other writers, they always told me to trim down on dialogue-heavy scenes where I would just dump a bunch exposition on the viewer.

Plot doesn't even factor into this. A space elevator is an indispensable tool for putting things in orbit quickly and cheaply. If you want orbital superiority you NEED that. Otherwise all of your satellites are in danger, which is exactly what happened when Erusea took over a ton of Osea's spy satellites (to be fair that event was only mentioned in-game so I don't blame anyone for not remembering)

What I find ridiculous about Mihaly is how his "skill" is displayed in the cutscenes. He couldn't handle high-G maneuvers due to a shitty flightsuit, but then he gets a new flightsuit and now he can not only execute these maneuvers, but also defy physics. The effect these maneuvers have on his plane is not even in the equation - apparently, all you need is an ace pilot to stop your plane from shaking itself apart in a high-G turn.
dd2aa7 No.16096019

You can pull off Kulbit after Kulbit yourself and your own plane won't be any worse for wear in the end, never mind doing high-g turns in 6 previously, so planes falling apart from reckless flying just doesn't happen at all. If it did, I imagine Ace Combat wouldn't still be regarded as an arcade flight game.

I don't think it was terrible, but it could have been much better. The pacing was all wrong since you have the main fight right at the beginning, which is then followed by a pursuit that ends with 5 static targets and a slow moving one. Even the vertical tunnel run is inconsequential.
The main fight should have come after the tunnel run, and at the very top of the elevator at the edge of space. Throw in an even bigger UAV that ADF-11 can plug into that you need wear down SOLG-style. Even make Nagase relevant by having a timer to finish the fight before she docks with the elevator. Then you got tension, fanservice, a this-isn't-even-my-final-form boss fight, unique low G gameplay, and an opportunity to Keiki Kobayashi to play the game's title theme music like Agnus Dei, The Unsung War or Zero.
But that will never happen.

make a name for yourself by mission 6 or 7 sticking with the "convict squad" the entire game rather than jumping around.

Finale starts off with fight against biggest version of the drone that you wear down and eventually chase up the space elevator.

AH:L is the western title for Ace Combat 3D, a remake of Ace Combat 2 that was marketed to tie into Assault Horizon (probably why nobody played it).
It has it's own problems, it has the Maneuvers system from Sky Crawlers which isn't as press X to win as DFM but the whole game is built around it. It took me an absurd amount of time to take down boss enemies with it turned off, and the early aircraft in this game stall at the drop of a hat. It had a better soundtrack than X, but X was better in the gameplay department, while they are both on par in terms of story.

Ace Combat 3 shouldn't be in the Holy Trinity tier, while its very unique game with a great story, they hadn't perfected the gameplay formula like in 4. 3D (and I think you should use the JP cover so people don't confuse it for Assault Horizon) has that stupid maneuvers system that prevents it from achieving greatness. 6 and 7 are on par that while 6 does combined arms warfare really well, 7 features a greater variety of aircraft and mission variety.

7 is kind of okay-ish. A little off worse than 6 because it brings little changes compared to others. 7 got clouds which is a nice little addition but rarely see any use if enemies does not fly around them or the skies are clear (in most missions they do) and plane customisations.
5, you get alternate missions depending on radio chatter answer, can select your wingmen planes, the most missions and planes count and memorable scenes and mission backdrops. Story was good paced too.
6 brings ECM and operations which adds very active layers to the gameplay. ECM means you need to fly near your own ECM zone to counter enemies ECM so your missiles will hit. Operations mean you need to decide which one to unfuck first so they can go unfuck other ops on their own and more. A bit too short on the side, but operations mean one mission is usually longer than other games.
0 has top-tier soundtracks and story that blows everything and more over. The perfect 7 would be combination of all the good points of the holy trinity plus 6.

Honest question here, is HOTAS even usable in such an arcady game? I tried using a flight stick in AH and shit was completely unplayable due to how you jerk your plane around so violently constantly vs how you would fly in a proper sim. Granted my stick wasn't nearly as sophisticated as yours, and I didn't have pedals, but it feels kinda like bringing a racing wheel and pedals to a casual racing game like forza horizon. Yeah it "works" but you are at a pretty big disadvantage for trying to play with it because the game isn't realistic enough to work with realistic inputs and was never designed to be played in such a way to begin with.

Yes. In fact, the spiritual grandfather of Ace Combat, Afterburner, used flight sticks and throttles in both their stand up and sit down arcade units.
Also, Assault Horizon used hotas just fine, Project Wingman used them just fine despite only being a pre alpha kickstarter demo. Sky Rogue uses them despite being otherwise simplistic as fuck, as does the Ace Combat in WWII wannabe Flying Tigers: shadows over china. Both of the Hawx games had support for them, although the dead zone was fucked to all hell. Plus there's a dozen space fighter type games that have used either hotas or dual flight sticks as well.
And it's worth it noting that the outrage over this isn't because there's *no* hotas support in the game, which could be at least have been understandable if it was due to budget or time limitations… No, people are pissed because they went and made the game only support the shitty official sticks meaning they had to take *extra* time to code that in compared to just adding basic bitch universal direct input support.

That's because AH was not built with HOTAS in mind. AC7 HAS HOTAS support, albeit with support for only two specific HOTAS and they work pretty well. The thing is, why can't these profiles be modded to also support other HOTASes?

>afterburner
>the grandfather of AC
Afterburner isn't even true 3D and plays nothing like Air Combat as its on rails. Even then joysticks are the norm for arcade cabinets so of course it was designed to work with it in mind. And again, just because it supports HOTAS doesn't mean its in any way usable. Like I said, the type of gameplay in AC where you are slamming the stick around to its maximum deflections constantly makes it a struggle throughout to play making the saying "just because you can doesn't mean you should" come to mind. Just like casual racing games where playing with a proper wheel and pedals puts you at a distinct disadvantage due to the handling model forcing you to throw the wheel back and forth to its max travel as inputs outside of your max deflection don't steer as much as they should realistically because the game was made for the kind of quick input and less finesse of a controller.
>>16102746
I haven't seen anyone talk about the AC7 exclusive stick as it was never available in any demonstration and only appeared as mockups at various shows. I'm guessing it has a lot less travel than your average flight stick to compensate for the kinds of constant maneuvers you make in these games. IE it only works well because the stick was made specifically for the game. Meaning using a conventional stick will have the same awful max deflection wrestling match AH had. This of course is just speculation on my part but its still embarrassing that AH had a feature 7 lacks entirely. Even if I personally felt like it was a total gimmick in AH due to reasons I already stated.

Not really. The HOTAS they use is based on a PC hotas by Thrustmaster. So the stick isn't made only for Ace Combat 7. For having used it on my brothers PS4, it litterally is just a normal HOTAS. So I think that since the foundation of the control scheme is already there, it should be possible to mod it in. I just wanna use my Warthog.

Yeah, no. The thrustmaster stick is same shitty cheap as fuck T flight HOTAS that TM rebranded and sold over and over again for well over a decade. And the hori stick (which may not even work for the PC version) is the same hotas model hori made back in the xbox360/ps3 days aside from jamming a touch pad into the ps4 version. They're mechanically identical to their previous models. You are seriously giving bandai way too much credit if you think they'd spend the cash to get a flight stick controller built from scratch and specially tuned for the game instead of just slapping an ace combat logo on the cheapest pre-existing sticks they could find.

I agree completely. All the team jumping that happened in the game made it really difficult to have anyone be memorable in any bonding way. It would have been very interesting to have an Ace Combat in which your AWACS initially hates your guts warm up to you and end up breaking the rules to have your team of convicts pull off some crazy missions. Hell it would have made sense game play wise for your ability to give commands to your wing man to be locked or ineffective up until you became lead and everyone trusted you. It would have made giving commands to your allies in mission 19 all the more meaningful. It also doesn't help that Mihaly is the only real Ace you fly against and he barely has any real humanizing or likeable moments. Meanwhile, Yellow 13 and Pixy were guys I'd love to share a drink with before and after trying to kill each other in the skies.
It's honestly kind of a shame how the whole thing came together because I was expecting weird conspiracies and not knowing who to trust in the middle of war with conflicting orders, malfunctioning IFF, and different directives. Maybe even have your team end up going rogue like in 5 if some of the warhawks in Osea end up sending you guys to pull off some war crimes without any of you knowing. Also I was really hoping for some of the Ace intros that appeared first in Zero.

I'm a little over half way through AC7 now. I just finished Farbanti.
I don't know if things change towards the end, but has anyone noticed how low-scale all the sorties are? I remember every other Ace Combat game throwing in some missions that were very target rich, but in 7 it almost feels like they only put in as many enemies as they think you could destroy. Do you think maybe their inexperience with this new engine is the cause? It might explain why they've taken the approach to make the missions more gimicky than in previous game. I happen to like the variety, but I wish they were interspersed with more traditional missions. I'm reserving judgement until I finish the story, and replay it a few times, but for now the game just feels like a big tease. I want more from it, it could be more, but I don't think it's going to give it to me.

I have the suspicion that 7 was made as sort of a back to basics response to 6 and AH, sorta like how 04 was to 3. 6 was nearly exclusively built around Air to Ground missions, that were absolutely saturated everywhere with targets to accommodate the Allied Attack system. There was only one dedicated air to air mission and that was Heavy Command Cruiser. I think Project Aces may have looked at 6's gameplay and thought it was the reason it didn't sell as well, rather than having a Playstation exclusive franchise go to the Xbox when most of the playerbase was Playstation.
It's also why every mission has a gimmick, whether it's the weather, altitude restrictions, or target marking. Every mission in 6 tended to blend together because you were constantly pulling air support duty, rather than having dedicated dogfighting missions like the Holy Trinity. So they tried to go back to 5's formula where they have different gimmicks in mission to spice things up. Problem was, was that the game isn't long enough to really establish what was "normal" gameplay.
And that's what I think is 7's big flaw, is that the game isn't long enough. The gameplay is there, in it's full glory, but there just isn't enough to chew on. I genuinely like the game, and I think it does some things better than 6 (mission variety, plane selection), but I think the fact that it's so short and feels rushed prevents it from taking it's place amongst the Holy Trinity.

I just hope that they use some of the money to make ports of the older games to PC. More so games like 6 than the Holy Trinity, since 6 is perpetually stuck on the 360, the DLC content which included new singleplayer missions got taken down on Xbox Live. It would be really great if 6 was ported to PC with all the DLC (changed to be unlocked in SP. New Game) so more people could play it because I think it's very underrated. 4, 5, and 0 are already vastly improving in emulation quality so it might be unneeded.

Frankly, the game feels like half a game, the story would have been so much more fleshed out if they had 40 missions to do it. 20 with Spare, 20 with Strider. Hell, maybe that's what they want to do with DLC until they're ready for AC8.
>>16112766
It is very back to basics, a bit too much imo. At least on the ground pounding front. You have essentially one mission that lets you go full Mobius for the highest score (Fleet destruction, use LACMs). Most of the air missions I found decent, exception being mission 3 doing the guns only run. On ace. Didn't like the final mission though, very disappointing final boss. Almost feel as though mission 20 and 19 should have been flipped, and you'd have to protect the lighthouse from the arsenal instead. And naturally, make it much stronger to make it more challenging.
I still love it for finally coming back, and on PC to boot. As a general principle, I don't like DLC, but I'd sell myself into goddamn slavery to afford everything they drop if I needed to.

I'm doing my second playthrough of the game on Ace and with the JP voices. I'm happy that they kept JP audio, especially since it was actually really good quality in AC5. Fewer cringy moments like the orgasm noises after Chopper's death and the voice acting was way more consistent and subdued. Plus it was evident that the English script was just the translated JP script, but it was a pretty good translation.
AC7's translation… is not. It's shit. From the very first cutscene, there are entire shades of meaning completely removed. In the English script, Avril says something about hoping that her grandfather is happy flying elsewhere, wherever that is. In the JP script, she specifically states, in a sort of wishful fashion, that she knows her grandfather is out there somewhere, flying the deep blue skies. Suddenly the very first cutscene changes meaning from "Avril introduces herself and talks about how she's great and then she gets shot down" to "Avril details how she rebuilt a plane in the hopes of finally seeing the blue sky that her grandpa told her about in the hopes of reconnecting with his spirit."
Then as I've been progressing through the game I've been noticing that the translators didn't even try to translate Japanese idioms, or if they did, translated them such that they completely change their meaning. It's just the shittiest possible localization.
Then by the time you get to the Spare Squadron, there's a huge disconnect between the JP characterization and the English characterization. In the English dub, everyone is needlessly aggressive and confrontational, everyone treats you like shit, and your convict wingmen all have tone of voices that are actively distrustful of each other. It's so over-the-top. But in the JP dub, the convicts all have friendlier tones of voice, tend to have accents or mannerisms that indicate that they're just joking around, and it feels as if they're all just happy to be flying. It's like flying in a squadron where everyone is Chopper. And then the AWACS, while being super mean and aggressive in the English dub, has a tone of voice in the JP dub that indicates that he's just being sarcastic most of the time but still cares about the squadron. This completely changes the context of every single line, and changes how the tone of half of the game is dealt with.
As an example, Mission 7, where you have to fly around in those canyons and escort those fighters for a while. In the English dub, I always wondered about why the AWACS was so needlessly belligerent, to the point of angrily calling you a coward for flying into a thunderstorm. Well, in the JP dub, he says the same line with a touch of awe and sarcasm. He isn't angrily calling you out for supposedly being a coward, he's actually making a joke about how insanely brave you have to be to fly into a thunderstorm. Similarly, one of the fighters you have to escort calls you a coward in that mission, but in the JP dub she uses a different word, which is closer in meaning to "jerk" or "jackass."
And it's like this for every single mission. Just knowing some Jap do your reps, faggots and using the JP dub changes the entire feel of the game drastically. This screams of half-assed/lazy translation and it really feels as if the English voice acting had no actual direction from the original writers, so they just went with making everyone in the Spare Squadron segment of the game a complete asshole.
tl;dr use the JP voices and learn some Jap because the entire tone of the game is different when you have the original script and competent voice actors, holy fuck

521b4c No.16118722
In the JP script the honorifics and general sentence structure does indicate that there's no malice to it, and the voice acting indicates that it really was an accident. In the mission after that, when it's brought up, Bandog replies in an outwardly aggressive tone in the English dub while the JP voice is more reserved and reticent to acknowledge it. It's less a "SHUT UP!" and more a "now's not the time, be quiet." Bandog doesn't even use a rude style of voice or sentence structure. The only one using the omae form in that mission is the base commander.
Along with the general use of sentence style and honorifics (the omae pronoun form is rarely, if ever, used by anyone other than the self-absorbed base commander, while -ze is used a ton by light-hearted pilots) it's actually downright shocking. The entire nature of the story, campaign, and characters is completely flipped on its head between the dubs and scripts. Spare Squadron goes from being a shitty penal battalion commanded by miserably sadistic assholes in the English script/dub to a wink-wink-tap-the-side-of-your-nose squadron for misfits where only the base commander isn't in on the joke in the JP script/dub.
The incompetence of the translation and the English voice acting is actually shocking, the further I get into the campaign with the JP voice.

As far as I can tell, it's likely that the script went to a shitty translation house, then the result wasn't double-checked, and then thrown right at the voice recording studio, where they had no direction and they made do with the stilted translation.
The translation work is actually really bad. I mean, it's passable, and in acceptable English, but the actual meaning of the dialogue is lost in a lot of places, or is so flat-out wrong that the meaning changes entirely. It creates a lot of bizarre moments like during the last missions when they're doing the raid, and Cossette runs ahead and charges into the line of fire to go wreck some shit, then Avril angrily calls her a "stupid woman" before they get back to being best friends. The JP line is way more light-hearted and the actual translation is far closer to "silly girl." The scene changes entirely, and so does Cossette and Avril's characterization.
It feels as if whoever did the translation work has no understanding of either Japanese idioms or English idioms, didn't bother to try to make the English script cohesive, and didn't try to understand any of the shades of meaning or characters at all.
The translation work is so bad in so many different ways that it's actively detrimental to the game, even to the point where I'd say that the difference in very nature of the story and the characters means that AC7 becomes completely different depending on the dub.
This is why it's good to learn Jap, so you don't let unnecessary incompetence get in the way of enjoying Jap media.

Well, what are you waiting for anons, contact the producers about this pretty big error in the English Version, tell them JP Audio with Eng subtitles which are not handled by incompetent and lazy translators is better.
The next time they try to localize the game in English they should pick high quality TLers who don't slack off in their TLs (though the English VAing needs some work to rid it of that rwby-tier cringe dialogue lines) or perhaps even better, pick nips who are good at TLing English than hiring faggots who's incompetence are borderline intentional in doing their role.
One more thing; they should also release the language packs seperately for every distinct language to spare everyone from that damn awful filesize bloat (40GB disk space), also platform optimization.

I finished AC7 last night. I think everyone can agree that the main theme about drones made for a boring story, and some underwhelming bosses. Having the enemy either cower, revere, or hate you is one of the best contributors to atmosphere in previous games, and its absence here was disappointing. The mission at Shilage castle, though not special gameplay-wise, was one of the strongest sorties atmospherically simply because the enemy actually had emotions and characterization.
The way the story and characters were handled was bizarre. If we have AC5 on one side of the spectrum, where cutscenes and characterization are focused entirely on your squad, and AC6 on the other side, which focuses on a bunch of random people with loose ties to the missions, then AC7 was in this uncomfortable space in-between them. Strider, Cyclops, and 444 squad actually have faces, and yet all cut-scenes focus on Avril or Mihaly. All these characters vied for significance in the missions, but the game's length doesn't give them the time they need to really matter to you. It all felt so rushed that I'm not even sure what happened in a lot of story segments. Count ended up being my favorite just for being there the most time, and for being a bro and flying through the tunnel with me when everyone else thought Trigger was a demi-god who would do everything for them. I don't have much to say about it, but one thing I genuinely enjoyed in the story was the tone-shift when the satellites go down. I could go on about how the previous games handle the story better, but you get it. Lastly, the princess was top qt.
Gameplay wise I only have a few complaints. Despite the game being 20 missions long, it still feels short. The missions feel shorter on average since they tend to be more objective based than "kill everything". I like this as it reminds me of AC5, but it needs the length of AC5 to have a chance at holy-trinity-tier. Unlike some of you, I enjoyed the gimmicks. Sometimes they were a little overdone, but I think this is more a problem with the game's pacing. One thing I would have liked were more large scale missions that made the war actually feel significant instead of every mission being a one-sided shitstomping of the Eurusians until they decide to flip the "superweapon" switch. The music was great. AC7 music certainly has a classic AC style while also incorporating a unique synthy flair, which suits its futuristic themes. Werewolf, Lost Kingdom, and Three of a Kind are my current favorites. The boss themes didn't really have the energetic austerity of the big holy-trinity songs, but they were alright. I would rank it above AC6 musically.
It wasn't a fantastic game, nor was it dissatisfying. The word that comes to mind for it is "cute". It was a nice surprisingly polished attempt at an AC game despite it likely being a rushed job. There were a lot of awkward attempts to reference the older games, but I appreciate what they were going for. Maybe they knew their limitations and just wanted to let the fans know they haven't forgotten the classics. I'd give it a solid 7/10 and would agree that it belongs alongside AC6 in the charts.

Wow that's a really strange way of doing it with the altitude. Top gun: FA was isometric and only had high and low to choose from. Hold D-pad down for low flying, push D-pad up for afterburners which got you around fast at the cost of fuel. Flying low was the only way to hit ground targets without using bombs. It worked pretty well unless you had a mission where there were a lot of ground targets and your thumb fell off from holding down the D-pad forever. F-14 was actually kinda like the spiritual successor to top gun for the NES in the way it was first person. Though it had a scrolling horizon and was not on rails like the classic game. It did have mid flight refueling and a landing sequence that you could choose to do once per mission each if you were running out of fuel, or needed to repair/rearm. I liked how F-14 accurately modeled the missiles you had. Fire and forget short range side winders, semi-active homing medium range sparrows, and the extreme range active radar phoenix. You even had to punch in the arm code for tomahawks you launched complete with a TV feed from the missile and had to choose between chaff or flares depending on what was shooting at you. It was pretty ambitious for a hand held and the people who made it did their homework for a shovelware team.

>AC7's translation… is not. It's shit. From the very first cutscene, there are entire shades of meaning completely removed. In the English script, Avril says something about hoping that her grandfather is happy flying elsewhere, wherever that is. In the JP script, she specifically states, in a sort of wishful fashion, that she knows her grandfather is out there somewhere, flying the deep blue skies. Suddenly the very first cutscene changes meaning from "Avril introduces herself and talks about how she's great and then she gets shot down" to "Avril details how she rebuilt a plane in the hopes of finally seeing the blue sky that her grandpa told her about in the hopes of reconnecting with his spirit."
I played the game with ENG audio JP subtitles and I noticed that, what a sad translation. It was actually a pretty good line in JP and gave some feels and kind of ruined in the ENG version.

Later on I played 'Hyperspeed Rick' (Wasn't aware of the Lone Wolf/Far Behind secret missions back then), when I saw her at first I never actually bothered with her appearance since she's wearing a full pilot suit with helmet, too busy with the okay-ish lore and gameplay at the time, but when I finished the 'R-Mite' mission she showed up in the post mission debriefing with no helmet along with a very open cleavage… At that moment something clicked inside me but it wasn't until a while later that I have the hots for Ruth and Francine, after playing the game (and my PS2 breaking down) my crush on Ruth and Francine evolved over the years into the 2D Tomboy fetish I now have today

My journey in playing through the campaign with JP voices continues. By mission 15 the inconsistencies start catching up, plot-wise, and in aircraft chatter as well. There's way more nuance in the common chatter and the character interactions with Cyclops Squadron are completely different. There's now even more increased instances of the English subtitles only vaguely matching up with what's being said. It's getting to be distracting.
That said, I'm finding that I'm actually appreciating the game more on a second playthrough. The mechanics are all still solid, the gimmicks are still fun, doing the canyon run in record time so I could get the special ace to show up and nab that Su-47 skin was super fun, and I'm beginning to really understand the mechanical/scripting meta of the game. It really does feel like Ace Combat 04 all over again, but I think the main reason it feels so short compared to the technically-shorter 04 is that there's more objective-based gimmick missions and fewer 20-minute score attack missions. Each mission feels a lot like Ace Combat 5's general mission structure but the problem is that there's 2/3rds as many missions. But at least it's better than Ace Combat Zero's mission structure which alternated between multi-part marathon missions or short missions followed by an ace encounter. And it's way better than Ace Combat 6's marathon missions based entirely around attacking tons of enemies and judiciously using allied support.
That said, I found some new complaints specifically for Ace Combat 7:
>allies rarely "support" you in hairball situations so once a single fighter gets behind you then you're going to hear the missile warning constantly until you either fuck off or kill him
>air allies hitting targets don't actually seem to do any damage to enemy aircraft if you're targeting them, making for odd situations where you just saw a guy get slammed by an allied missile, think he only needs one more missile to finish him off, but in reality needs two
>air allies do seem to do damage only to kill-steal though, since they can finish off already-injured enemies and ground targets, making score attack missions aggravating
<on that note, ground allies actually do lots of damage by themselves, holy shit, you can especially notice this in the Stonehenge Mission where up to a quarter of enemy ground forces end up being taken out by ground allies
>Tu-160s are fucking nightmarish since they tend to zip into the map at odd angles to where you currently are, go 1000+ knots, usually target story-critical objectives, and take 3 missiles to kill or 2 missiles and about a second of solid guns
All in all, though, I'm enjoying the game a bit more than my first playthrough, especially after I got over how shit the English translation is. It's a solid game with lots of potential going forward in the series, but goddamn, those of you who haven't studied Jap basically got robbed of solid Ace Combat characters. I wouldn't go so far to say that it's comparable to the JP/English versions of AC3, since there's no actual mission content being taken away, but there is story content and character development that got removed in AC7's translation process. It's a damn shame.
>>16130517
Protip: Learn how to spot certain flight patterns, learn what the sweet spot in angling for missiles is, learn how to do interesting trick shots (like using the angling of the missile to work in your favor when attacking ground targets), use UGBs or SFFS specials when doing ground-attack missions to easily wipe out swathes of ground targets, and most importantly, learn how to effectively use the gun to finish off enemies and conserve ammo.
Really, all the skills from the holy trinity apply here, and I'm regularly getting A or S ranks on Ace on this second playthrough.

That's the problem. Unless it's done in-house by Japs, usually the translation suffers tremendously. At worst, it'll be done by Treehouse-tier San Fran cunts with more ideology than brain, and at best it'll be done by someone who took a few Jap classes in university, did the JLPT up to N2 or N1, maybe did a few years of JET, and is working as a foreign translator in Japan, likely just in Tokyo or Osaka, where they're so insulated from real Japanese culture while simultaneously being forcefed Western media lies about what Western culture is like. This translation reeks of "done by some university students with good credentials but whose knowledge of Japan is limited to the streets of Takadanobana and Akiba."

As a side note, I I just remembered that something that's really bothering me is the targeting algorithm. When you press the next target button, it cycles through some relatively nearby targets but its center-of-screen weighting and distance weighting is gone. It feels way more like Vector Thrust's targeting system rather than the classic Ace Combat targeting system, and it's kind of aggravating. It makes strafing/missile runs on ground targets annoying since often the next target will be something off-screen or far away while the target in the middle of your reticle will be the 2nd or 3rd one in line. Out of all the fucking changes, this one is the worst.
Oh, and Mission 16 protips: When looking at targets to figure out their IFF, you can hold down the next-target button to look at them, as in the rest of the Ace Combat games, and it'll count towards the identification timer. That way you don't have to line up actual runs to keep them in your airplane's path, but can merely fly past to within ~5000 feet while holding down that camera button. It makes things easier and got me an S-rank. Of course, it's harder if you're in cockpit view rather than HUD view or external view, since your camera view is limited.
Oh, and I found the Yokohama Baybridge. I thought the spiral highway ramp looked familiar, especially since there's some annoying-to-get targets there. It's nice to see that Project ACES still loves to plop random buildings and bridges down into the world as easter eggs.

YES! I target one thing and move over it, fire a missile and hit but then as I target back, it doesn't target the next target next to it, it'll target something far off, then I have to cycle through a few more before I turn around and have it targeted.

In AC5, wingmen would consistently down targets, also there was the allied support in AC6 which would've been really useful in AC7 for getting drones off your ass.

Honestly Keith / Nameless Su-43 from Betrayal / Swarm in AC3 is probably hands down the best wingmen in any of the games I've played, usually gets 5-10 kills if you let him do his thing and even with the superplanes you'll have a hard time stopping him from getting any, which is even the exception compared to the rest of the game in the JP version where you will rarely see more than a couple friendly kills outside of that mission.

>>16134742
Allied missiles in 4/5/Zero seem to only outright kill if they are on already-injured enemies and also seem to have a time-dependent damage cap. In particular I remember more than a few times in 5 where I'd see 3-4 allied missiles plow into a full-health target, take it down to low health at most, and then if you don't follow up, then the target becomes valid to die under allied missiles within a minute or so.
It's quite the opposite in 7 where allied missiles do no damage to full-health targets but absolutely damage or kill enemies once they are damaged even a little bit by the player. Even gun contact seems to count as player damage.

Dogfighting in an A-10 has been a time-honored tradition ever since AC04 codified it with Bunker Shot. If you were an okay player, you had just enough credits by that point to buy an A-10, which is great, so you used it. Then you fought A-10s in an A-10.
After that if you went into everything blind you'd go at Stonehenge in an A-10 and have to dogfight Yellow Squadron in an A-10. Like I did. What a great experience.

I know, I played them all. I said AC4 has the worst gameplay in the trinity. Planes are floaty and unstable as fuck, wobbling back whenever you pitch or yaw in any direction like it's rubberband or something. It's very apparent when you play the game back to back. AC7 plays more like 5 or Zero, ergo, a lot better than 4.

I wouldn't say the difference in plane handling is large enough between games at-least not between 1 and 0 to say it controls a lot better
If anything the most noticeable difference between 4 and 5 is that you roll slower in 5 while your planes accelerate faster / have higher max speed (especially since 4 makes cruising altitude much less relevant outside of the heavy ground assault missions), and your movement vector aligns to where you're aiming faster in 5
So if anything the handling is more noob friendly (don't have to account for drift, less chance of overshooting when you roll, can zoom around the map much more easily because most panes are faster than even AC4 endgame ones etc) not particularly better in the absolute sense of the term, besides I'm pretty sure it's impossible to truly make bad controls outside of lacking roll entirely controls in that genre.
873c85 No.16141478
>>16141460
>So if anything the handling is more noob friendly
Real planes don't overshoot by inertia when rolling/yawing as much as 4 shows, especially with an experienced pilot. 4's gameplay is just half-baked because it's the first AC on its engine (which is rather primitive when it came out), but it's not a badge of honor or a deliberate challenge either. It's just annoying.
45c4f4 No.16141522
>>16141478
>Real planes don't overshoot by inertia
Real planes don't behave like they do in AC in general
When I'm talking about overshooting I mostly mean due to slow reaction from the player because 4 has really fast rolling compared to the others, the inertia is negligible at best, also present in 5 and consistent so any player will accommodate for it in time.
Besides when it comes to rolling 5 has that stupid thing where you immediately drop down significantly when you're upside down compared to the soft drop every other game had prior to it.
873c85 No.16141543
>>16141522
>the inertia is negligible at best
It is very present. What I'm saying is that the inertia acting as a reaction force rather than keeping the momentum and letting planes drift predictably. The planes feel like bricks, like they're actually pulling in the opposite direction you're turning them, thus preventing you from predicting how far you have to turn before letting go of the stick/trigger and let the plane drift like you'd expect it to. In 4, they stop almost instantly, like the inertia is actually pulling them back, which is nonsense gameplay-wise. While AC is obviously not realistic, the sense of weigh in 4's planes are all over the place. 5 and Zero fixed that.

That's actually pretty accurate, realism or not.. Plane wings generate lift by design when they're on the right angle towards the horizon, turn them on their belly and the wings will push them down hard. Still, it's not unmanageable, just push the stick up. The drop rate is also pretty predictable.

>>16141567
>That's actually pretty accurate, realism or not
It might be and it is fairly manageable unless you try to show off in the tunnel / SOLG, but it clashes with other decisions to make handling easier for newcomers in my opinion it's also unlike every other game up to that point and it also clashes with the progression of mechanics throughout the games, smoothing out the pseudorealistic handling / physics over time has been a thing since 2.
Although it's not the worst design decision in 5 gameplay wise, that would go to making vibration completely retarded and basically on 90% of the time instead of a good cue that you're gonna stall.
>It is very present. What I'm saying is that the inertia acting as a reaction force rather than keeping the momentum and letting planes drift
Well I'm talking about rolling and you're talking about turning / pulling, yes there's a lot of drift when turning or pulling compared to 5 but nothing you can't account for, Megalith is a good place to see that, just try to enter the tunnels from the top.
>While AC is obviously not realistic, the sense of weigh in 4's planes are all over the place. 5 and Zero fixed that.
And in the process made your starting F-5 barely feel worse than the endgame Su-47, which is both good and bad.
There's also the weird case of the MiG-31 becoming the complete outlier when it comes to handling despite the, that plane feels more like a brick than anything in AC4

>clashes with other decisions to make handling easier for newcomers
I wouldn't imagine newcomers flying around upside down, that takes experience. Handling in AC5 is perfectly fine really. 4's case is not the realism, but rather the plane behaving in a sensible way, which it doesn't, which is my gripe. 4's tunnels were easy but I really had to keep pushing the yaw/pitch little by little to adjust the flying because the planes feel stiff.
>Well I'm talking about rolling and you're talking about turning / pulling
Yes. Rolling isn't as bad but it also isn't as consequential as turning your plane to face the direction you want it to go, which is clunky as hell compared to the rest of the trinity.
>made your starting F-5 barely feel worse than the endgame Su-47
What? The F-5 stalls like hell in my experience. Still, if it remains viable to the end, it's good design.
>MiG31 feels more like a brick
That's the Foxhound for you, but it's the only brick I found in later games, other than maybe the A-10.

>I wouldn't imagine newcomers flying around upside down
True, but the drop happens even if you're just rolling, meaning that there are times where you wanna pay extra attention to not roll in a specific direction whereas it's much less of a factor with the softer drop and in 4 you roll so goddamn fast that it's even less of a factor.
>Handling in AC5 is perfectly fine really.
It's fine in all the AC games, well except AC1 since that doesn't have analog and it has a couple mission with a stall blocker which is really fucking bad as a mechanic, but really not that bad outside of that even if primitive and hampered by other aspects of the game.
>Still, if it remains viable to the end, it's good design.
It feels almost as good, but it doesn't perform quite as good (although in general the gap between low an high tier outside of ammo is narrower in 5 if you exclude superplanes), the primary blocking factor in latter parts is low ammo and shit special.
I'd also argue not hard deprecating gameplay tools is detrimental to the sense of progression granted 5 replaces deprecation with exp based plane progression to get you to fly other planes.

>>16141903
>the drop happens even if you're just rolling
Oh that happens in every game to a degree, though it is more prominent in AC5. This where you use your yawing skills to maintain your trajectory while rolling, which is something I love to do.
>except AC1 since that doesn't have analog
Yeah 1 is pretty tough. I think the flying is locked to six axis in it.

If you're proficient with the D-pad or remap it through an emulator it behaves like you'd expect in expert mode without the nuance that an analog so no smooth turningstick would provide but it still feels off by some margin, although that is less noticeable once you get a plane that's not shit (in the case the A-10 since it's the best plane in the game for some reason).

It took me 30 hours of gameplay to realize that in AC7, you can double-tap throttle up and throttle down (if you're using keyboard controls) while flying slow (a bit below the default speed), and then press pitch up to perform this weird maneuver where your aircraft continues to slowly glide in its original direction for a moment, and during that time you can give physics the middle finger and almost rotate yourself in place. It's cool, it lets you do all the crazy cutscene shit Mihaly did, like the on-the-spot turn in mission 7. I thought it was a thing only he could do, because he was wearing the high-G suit. But it seems that only certain aircraft are capable of doing that thing at all. The F-22, and most, if not all Sukhois can do that, but e.g. none of the F-15s can. What's up with that?

It's absurd that you can only stall at low speed since it's arbitrarily coded in as a canned animation and not physics based. In AC3, which is the closest the series ever got to sim physics, you can actually perform the Cobra and other maneuvers properly. Also, I wish the "high-G turn" system was renamed to and only usable on vector thrust aircraft, else what is it an abstraction of? The pilot pulling the stick off?
873c85 No.16142357
>>16142324
I do believe you can perform these maneuvers manually at high speed. What I did through my gameplay was hold both thrust buttons and pull the stick back to make a sharp turn, then push it forward. Of course it's not the same thing, but you can pull your plane upwards to decelerate quickly, then pitch it back down.
You can also technically perform the Bell maneuver in all the games if you stall while flying straight up.

For everything terrible about JASF I kinda liked their approach to afterburner and vector thrust even if the effects of the latter are completely overpowered.
Basically,with an x360 controller if you hold both trigger you engage vector thrust mode while you hold those down which boosts your mobility in every way, especially yawing which gets ludicrously fast, same with afterburners you have to doubletap the throttle to engage it and it's a limited thing that replenishes over time, but obviously you can't use both of them at the same time (dunno if it's realistic but it works in hte context of that game)

Done with the campaign on JP audio. There's a huge missed opportunity for dramatic character development in a few cutscenes due to the absolute shitty translation. The confrontation with Schroeder takes on a different angle since Mihaly's granddaughter uses the same term (deep blue sky) when describing Mihaly's true passion. At that moment, it cuts to Avril suddenly changing expression since it's supposed to clearly resound with her memories of her own grandfather. This is lost on the English translation because the same term is translated in two different ways across two different cutscenes even though thematically it's supposed to be the same.
There's also fine gradations of respect and friendship between Avril and Cossette, reflected in Avril's Jap speech patterns with are notably tomboyish and informal with a high sense of irony (such as consistently calling Cossette ojou-sama while using the -ze form) while also using the expression ばかやろ whenever possible, in a childish manner and context, which reflects a lot on her character. This is all simple, basic literary convention in Jap that you'd have to be willingly stupid or actively incompetent to not pick up on, even at a basic-intermediate level. Instead we get needlessly confrontational and bizarrely incongruent dialogue. It really feels like the translation was done by a team of 30 people, each assigned a different mission or cutscene and not knowing what the others were doing.
Based on the credits info (the credits actually change depending on whether you use JP or English voice, which is nice) it looks like there were three or four translation teams, in addition to vague localization by Keywords International and Synthesis Global Solutions. The three or four other translation teams are: One in Singapore made of 3 people, one in L.A. made up of about 8 people + 20 testers, two English testers in Europe that have vaguely Nordic names, and three English "Localization Specialists" in Bamco America. The one in L.A. team is the most interesting since they also did the voice recording. It's Bang Zoom Studios. They are notorious for bizarre translations, have six dialogue editors alone, and their CEO infamously predicted the death of dubbed anime nine years ago if muh pirates didn't immediately stop doing translations of their own.
What a shitshow. Anyone who only has the English translation got robbed of a solid, if short, Ace Combat story. What a waste.

It honestly amazes me just how fucking worthless the ACwiki is on terms of how incomplete and not helpful at all the information it contains is. The Airforce Delta wiki is kept by much more competent autists and contains way more useful info you can't find in the instruction book or in any other guide because the games are so obscure.

Bandog actually did plot Full Band's death. When Tabloid tells everyone to group up on Trigger to update IFF and the dogfight begins, Bandog asks Full Band for his position, to which he replies "at the tail end." Bandog then lets out a quiet chuckle on the comms and Full Band's [friend] indicator vanishes from the radar, turning his IFF into an enemy. It's hard to notice, but it happens, so yes, there was malice, regardless of translation issues.

Since the MIG-25 and 35 still aren't available, I'm trying to get into the 31 instead. How the hell do you make this thing viable? True to life, it can't maneuver for shit and its stability can't keep up with its speed. Pulse lasers are awful too.
I know it makes sense for it to have speed over mobility, since it's an interceptor, but that means there's no point to it exisiting in the game since it has no ground focus either.
On another note, why does this, the F-15, and the Su-37 have lasers? I can't make sense of these decisions, especially since even the Wyvern doesn't have anything unique and the FALKEN isn't in.

You go fast, you take laams or saams, and you boom and zoom. I've styled on 4 man F-22 QAAMer teams with it. In SP, it's basically useful for one mission: Bunker Buster. It's a russian brick with two fuckoff-huge engines to it. You can't really make it anything more than a dart in SP, with some of the MP upgrades though, it gets pretty spicy.
The MIG-31 has lasers because lasers are fast. Also Belka.****
