1:02 Well, thats familiar. Haven't seen that since Yellow Squadron in AC4. And considering how those guys fought, dogfighting Markov is shaping up to be yet another "pleasant" experience.
@JoyMaze123 Weird because I'm hearing Markov when they say his name and the name that displays "Markov" around his hit box when hes targeted must be a typo then. :P
@kahoalii95 i rember playing ace 6 watch this my jaw just dropped i cant belive they improved this much i wounder if the same charaters in 6 will be in this one
Why so many fucking missiles for one fucking person? Seriously I know they are not going for realism, they never have really, but come on. How easy is the game going to be when you can launch shitstorms of missiles at every opponent. I'm still going to at least rent it but wth.
@AngryAnon 2-zero (no 6), yes I have. But never have I needed nor wanted to launch more than two missiles at one opponent unless it was a larger plane. Plus I believe the max missiles you could get on Ace Combat 5 for instance was around 88 with the X-02 Wyvern. I saw a screen flash I one of these trailers that said over 300. Im just saying its gone a tad too far. Also I was always a standoff fighter and it now looks like that is being lost with the emphasis on (too) close range combat.
@UltimaWeaponDeux On Ace difficulty the max missiles you could get was around 88, I never played on anything below hard so I dont know about those settings.
how stupid is this the at least shoot down the american in an american plane something he might actually be trained to fly in this is just embarrassing.
alright gameplay looks great, got a intimidating villain, all we need is a good story with charecters we care about and this game is destined for greatness
@jsh020 If they had the same group do this one, then we're likely to have decent story. My fear is that it'll be a lot of the same missions (tunnel flying, super weapon killing, etc) that has dominated the last what...3 games of the series? Here's hoping...
@s267143 well the thing is if a story is really that good it can remedy any repition in a game cause your so focused on the plot and charecters, thats really how it worked with most of the other ace combat games, plus when the plots good enough it makes gameplay better
like when you build up a villian that has killed your favorite charecters, ruined the MC's life, killed many helpless people and is downright evil, when you actually get to that part where you take him down is just so amazing
Saying to myself while the fight is going above"Where's Mobius 1 when we need him the most......................"(looks up into the sky above Miami Beach and sees a wormhole opening and Mobius 1 appears) Jaw is dropped
What I speak here, may sound strange, but I have the distinct impression that this game in terms of quality, will be quite lower than the AC-zero for PS2. I am impressed with the fact that the image texture,remembers a typical PC game. Even today, when I see AC-Zero, I think it's even better than AC6 and comparing AC-AH, I do not think this will be different from what I saw so far.
He said arrogant American even though we dont fly eurofighters.... Hopefully that was just for the trailer or there is some explanation as to why an american pilot would be in a typhoon in the game...
@nem1 The Typhoon is a Euro Fighter. Germany, England, and France have their own variations of the plane. The Iron Cross IS present on today's German war-fighters. You are fighting for the United Nations in this game, and thus the selectable aircraft come from various members of the UN. This is why you see Russian, German, and American planes being flown by the player in the trailer .
@itssteveufool An American pilot would not be flying a Eurofighter. If it's supposed to be a "real world" game then it needs to have "real world" scenarios. And the chances of an American flying a Eurofighter are slim. Nations dont play trade with their aircraft. You didnt read the entire conversation so you shouldnt have been trying to comment. Find one case where an American pilot has flown a Luftwaffe Typhoon...
@nem1 Its meant to be "real world" but you have to draw a line somewhere. The story can't stop everytime you use a plane not flown by the US to switch pilot and explain you're flying as a new guy instead of the protagonist of the story. And if you don't want to fly in those planes then you can just select US ones to preserve the illusion for yourself.
@nem1 If the main character is a mercenary, he can fly whatever plane his employing country has in it's arsenal. They basically get the pick of the litter type of thing.
But once again that isnt a "real world" scenario. There is no such thing as a mercenary pilot who is adept with all aircraft. There are very few people who have flown aircraft from more than one country, especially when it concerns modern aircraft. There is only one reported individual who has flown both the Eurofighter and the Raptor for instance. Of you want to call it a real world game then there are details that shouldnt be skipped over
@ZefSideFresh i think the i won a math debate plane is the best. Oh and by the way you should say i won a math debate out loud to everyone you know :D
So, they are going to send out a squad to deal with one guy and and they supply them with forgien fighters? Does no one have a damn Raptor. This is why the Raptor was built.
@Alpha0727 No, the now retired (grounded Feb 2010, retired officially last week) Raptor was lacking in the manoeuvrability (and rust resistance) department compared to more Modern Aircraft such as the Eurofighter.
Plus there's the chance the US Airforce isn't flying (probably due to the fact you don't have any current generation fighters), seeing as you wouldn't share your Raptors we went and made our own; with Blackjack, Hookers and a lower price tag.
@Daemeous Where in the world did you find that the US RETIRED the entire fleet of F-22 Raptors? I found where they grounded the fleet in February. I also found that on May 3rd, the USAF grounded the F-22 fleet indefinitely because of issues with the planes' oxygen-generation system. They ordered a stand-down of the fleet, NOT a full blown retirement. Example: The F-117A Nighthawk was retired back in 2008. That means they are no longer in service. The F-22 Raptors are only grounded.
@Alpha0727 Semantics, they aren't flying anymore so the point stands; they aren't flying anymore which explains why they aren't being flown in the game.
@Daemeous And the study of meaning has what to do with this??? Actually, I watched another trailer, and the F-22 Raptors were present in that trailer. Why would a video game company spend tons of money on making a model for a game and take it out because the actual fleet was grounded. The fleet might be operational again by the time the game is out. The CFA-44 Nosferatu was in AC6 and that is not even an actual plane. AC6 also had the Nighthawk with a gun. F-117A has never had a gun.
@Daemeous The F-22 Raptor is a highly manoeuvrable aircraft and is a current generation fighter. The problem with the Raptor is that it costs too much and that it isn't as versatile as other aircraft such as the Eurofighter since it's designed purely for air superiority, while the Eurofighter can fulfil a variety of roles. Also you can't really consider the Eurofighter a more modern aircraft.
@XxSTRlKERxX I was wrong with the facts about the Eurofighter being more modern, the newer Eurofighters use more modern equipment while the design is actually older. The Eurofighters manoeuvrability is superior due to it's lightweight nature and achieves a higher Thrust Per Weight than the Raptor both fully loaded and unloaded.
Don't sell the Raptor short though, while it is being used as an ASF it was designed to fill multiple roles, it's just limited in the way loadouts it can use.
@Daemeous Well a Eurofighter may be more manoeuvrable, but the problem with most modern aircraft isn't what the plane is capable of, but what the pilot is capable of. Both the Eurofighter and the Raptor have their performance limited to prevent the pilots from knocking themselves out.
@XxSTRlKERxX The aircraft are not restricted by what the pilot can do, Metalurgy has been a rather stalid science since the 50's and no aircraft can sustain 10G+ without needing a complete dress down afterwards. During that time, ergonomics for the cockpit have improved (the 30 degree seat angle in the F-16 being a prime example) and so have G-Suits. The Libelle allows pilots to match and exceed the G limits of the aircraft and they don't even need to do G strain manuevers to prevent G-Lock.
@Daemeous There is one problem with this. Raptors have TVC, Typhoons don't. This is completely ignoring the fact that the F-22 is being updated with the avonics and more robust stealth technologies developed for the Lightning.
@TornadoADV So they're updating the Raptor Paperweights in spite of grounding them indefinately? That seem a little...counter productive.
And the TVC on the Raptor is overrated. It's limited to pitch only and vectoring it takes time which means when using it to turn you're looking at overshooting the turn or taking longer due to having to decelerate at the end of it. Great for showing off, less practical for precision dogfighting.
It's a heavy plane with acceleration on it's turns...
@Daemeous Well the reasons why the are grounded were due to rusting ejector seats and a malfunctioning oxygen supply. So the problem with the aircraft isn't with the actual plane itself it's the things they put into it.
@Daemeous Just no, you are incorrect on all counts. Why don't you actually bother learning something before shooting your mouth off. The Raptor has been going through BLOCK upgrades since 09'. And the Raptor's OBOGS issue is no worse then what happened to the Eagle recently with subpar wing struts during refits. As for the Raptor's TVC, Yaw control does not provide sufficent benefit over lost stealth with a redesigned exhaust nozzle. Plus all TVC is instant, check your facts before talking.
@Daemeous What this might mean is that the USAF might have to pull a few F-117A Nighthawks out of retirement to preform the their roll once more. The Nighthawks were replaced primarily by the Raptors. In any case, we have another 5-7 years before the F-35 Lightning II are introduced.
And yes, they can bring planes out of retirement. They have done it before with the SR-71 Blackbird. The US has multiple Aircraft graveyards all over the US that has planes able to be pressed back into service.
@Alpha0727 So you're stating that the USAF may fly obsolete aircraft they're spending money to maintain now their new ones are rusting and costing yet more to maintain?
I don't mean to put to fine a point on it but you don't paint a good picture of your Airforce with that...
I'm a huge fan of the series since Ace combat 1 and i'm disappointed, i'm worried about this dumbed down direction they're taking with Ace Combat Assault Horizon just to appeal to those CoD kids,
I think i pass this one, like i said, i'm a fan since AC1 and i don't like what they're doing to the series, i'll try the demo, but i don't expect any good from this game,
Namco, stop ruining you games and remake Ace Combat 3 "Japanese version" once and for all,
@dinizgames Im agree on the matter of AC3, but not everyting else, this looks totally awesome, may be is because I love to use the cannon and this is what I want, very diferent from that shit caled Hawx where you only lock the enemy and shoot a missile, great game, may be the best of all (Except for the Belkan War, that one is amazing)
@mastertulkas, well, different opinions i guess... I actually enjoyed HAWX 1 and 2, there's a lot of racing games, FPS's, RPG's... Why not more Flight games? Said this, i think its a good series, but the main problem was that it was far to simple/easy, if they do a third game, i hope they do it hardcore this time,
I have no doubt that Aces from Strangereal's paint schemes will be in this too. Besides, NamcoBandai did it before with Joint Assault, so they'll do it again....
Im glad i bought the flight control at best buy also..for jug too first thing im doing when i buy this game is finding the biggest building and nose dive
@f4slasher I agree with your ace list. Yellow squadron was THE MOST challenging squadron in the whole series, every time you turn around there was a yellow on your six!
Good to see you can get into cockpit view. I hated the thought of only Close-Range-Assault camera mode all the time. Reminded me of the awful camera work in HAWX.

@Daemeous Well a Eurofighter may be more manoeuvrable, but the problem with most modern aircraft isn't what the plane is capable of, but what the pilot is capable of. Both the Eurofighter and the Raptor have their performance limited to prevent the pilots from knocking themselves out.

@XxSTRlKERxX The aircraft are not restricted by what the pilot can do, Metalurgy has been a rather stalid science since the 50's and no aircraft can sustain 10G+ without needing a complete dress down afterwards. During that time, ergonomics for the cockpit have improved (the 30 degree seat angle in the F-16 being a prime example) and so have G-Suits. The Libelle allows pilots to match and exceed the G limits of the aircraft and they don't even need to do G strain manuevers to prevent G-Lock.

@Daemeous There is one problem with this. Raptors have TVC, Typhoons don't. This is completely ignoring the fact that the F-22 is being updated with the avonics and more robust stealth technologies developed for the Lightning.
TornadoADV 9 months ago
@TornadoADV So they're updating the Raptor Paperweights in spite of grounding them indefinately? That seem a little...counter productive.
And the TVC on the Raptor is overrated. It's limited to pitch only and vectoring it takes time which means when using it to turn you're looking at overshooting the turn or taking longer due to having to decelerate at the end of it. Great for showing off, less practical for precision dogfighting.
It's a heavy plane with acceleration on it's turns...

@Daemeous Well the reasons why the are grounded were due to rusting ejector seats and a malfunctioning oxygen supply. So the problem with the aircraft isn't with the actual plane itself it's the things they put into it.
XxSTRlKERxX 9 months ago
@Daemeous Just no, you are incorrect on all counts. Why don't you actually bother learning something before shooting your mouth off. The Raptor has been going through BLOCK upgrades since 09'. And the Raptor's OBOGS issue is no worse then what happened to the Eagle recently with subpar wing struts during refits. As for the Raptor's TVC, Yaw control does not provide sufficent benefit over lost stealth with a redesigned exhaust nozzle. Plus all TVC is instant, check your facts before talking.

@Daemeous What this might mean is that the USAF might have to pull a few F-117A Nighthawks out of retirement to preform the their roll once more. The Nighthawks were replaced primarily by the Raptors. In any case, we have another 5-7 years before the F-35 Lightning II are introduced.
And yes, they can bring planes out of retirement. They have done it before with the SR-71 Blackbird. The US has multiple Aircraft graveyards all over the US that has planes able to be pressed back into service.

@Alpha0727 So you're stating that the USAF may fly obsolete aircraft they're spending money to maintain now their new ones are rusting and costing yet more to maintain?
I don't mean to put to fine a point on it but you don't paint a good picture of your Airforce with that...

I'm a huge fan of the series since Ace combat 1 and i'm disappointed, i'm worried about this dumbed down direction they're taking with Ace Combat Assault Horizon just to appeal to those CoD kids,
I think i pass this one, like i said, i'm a fan since AC1 and i don't like what they're doing to the series, i'll try the demo, but i don't expect any good from this game,
Namco, stop ruining you games and remake Ace Combat 3 "Japanese version" once and for all,

@dinizgames Im agree on the matter of AC3, but not everyting else, this looks totally awesome, may be is because I love to use the cannon and this is what I want, very diferent from that shit caled Hawx where you only lock the enemy and shoot a missile, great game, may be the best of all (Except for the Belkan War, that one is amazing)
mastertulkas 9 months ago
@mastertulkas, well, different opinions i guess... I actually enjoyed HAWX 1 and 2, there's a lot of racing games, FPS's, RPG's... Why not more Flight games? Said this, i think its a good series, but the main problem was that it was far to simple/easy, if they do a third game, i hope they do it hardcore this time,
And true, AC: Belkan War was fantastic!

@f4slasher I agree with your ace list. Yellow squadron was THE MOST challenging squadron in the whole series, every time you turn around there was a yellow on your six!

Good to see you can get into cockpit view. I hated the thought of only Close-Range-Assault camera mode all the time. Reminded me of the awful camera work in HAWX.
