Chopper, you were an idiot and you died like an idiot. Crash in the water the next time you're trying to do something heroic.

At least I got Snow to replace you.

I'm not sure if there were any large bodies of water around November city, at least not within reach.

But I might be mistaken.

>tfw no HD collection

>>283518012
I forget the exact way it worked, but was the expectation not that one big meteor would come down, meaning they could shoot it from one location?

Then in reality, as the meteor got close to earth, gravity tore it into lots of smaller pieces, which stonehenge wasn't really designed to hit, hence the damage done.

I think in reality the difficulties of constructing the system plus nuclear proliferation would leave it off the tables.

>>283510296

I had to walk away at that point. Didn't touch the game for a week. I fucking loved Chopper.

>>283514958

He was trying to make sure the jet wouldn't crash down in any populated centres.

If he'd hit the water and was still inside, he'd be dead anyway. Jet fighters tend to dicintegrate on impact. He'd pretty much be crashing in a storm of metal and water strapped to a heavy chair with a load of debris and shit around him.

He'd have been fucked either way. He was trying to minimise casualties.

I disliked it for not being ace-combat and being so american when i played it (also because PMCs are cop outs), but overall I guess it was okay. i remember it being quite pretty and some missions being cool.

>tfw Infinity has killed any chance of a collection release
The campaign starts out weak as piss and so are most (all?) of the recreations of old battles, at least in SP.

But things really ramped up in the final mission to the point where I could imagine (and only imagine) Project Aces making a new campaign to a high standard if only a publisher would let them.

>>283518836
Garbage, but it had a couple of decent tracks and one mission which no stupidly long cutscene at the start: just you and a furball to get stuck into. I remember Tokyo being a decent mission too apart from the constant raindrop effect.

It's funny how HAWX 2 turned out so similar to Assault Horizon, yet managed to have a tunnel run at its very end, and a free-flight mode.

>>283518989

The content of its missions mainly. Even when you do get to play, they feel like very poor, watered down imitations of stages I've already played so many times over by now.

I'd load up the official site for it every once in awhile after watching the TGS trailer, since it would play Liberation of Gracemeria.

>>283520702
Oh yeah, it's not just the stage design. I just didn't want to get into the writing end because that isn't as relevant to a lot of people. There's something about the rest of the Ace Combat games outside of Assault Horizon that just isn't in AH or HAWX. I think a lot of it has to do with the way war works in Strangereal (especially its selection of superweapons), and the attitude pilots have to combat. Like they're knights with flying horses.

>>283521104

>>283522394

I only played Ace Combat 3. It was weird as fuck, pretty repetative and the story is slashed to bits from the Jap release.

If you play the PS2 versions and REALLY want more, then maybe get translated Jap versions.

Ace Combat 3: Electrosphere if you can understand moon. I don't know how the translation project for it is going though. Great game nonetheless.

No fooling, I'd walk over glass for a HD remake. Ace Combat got me through some shitty times as a kid.I still cry when I listen to Journey Home.

>>283522394
Play the PS2 ones first, once you're done go back to 2, if you really want to see the beginnings 1 (titled "air combat") is okay but very rough around the edges.

it's cool to see certain elements, like how many missiles to kill enemies, were in the game from game 1.

If I only have a 360 which game should I get? Been wanting to play a jet/flying game for fucking years. Last games I played like that were Red Baron 1 and 2 on the pc forever ago. Should I go for HAWX or AC?

>>283527506

Both, AC6 is great, and HAWX is surprisingly fun. You can get them really cheap by now. Just stay clear of the HAWX sequel.

fug that's right. But I don't recall hitting specifically 13 at Comona. Just that you nail someone and they all bug out. Was that supposed to be 13?

>>283541267
no just a random yellow was hit in comona

>>283541356
s'what I thought.
Also I know everyone typically likes the cheese and crazy superweapons of Ace Combat, but I would like to say that the actual narrative arc in 4 was legitimately impressive to me. Like yeah the main story is a country taking back it's lands. But the fact that the main cutscenes of the game were an entirely different perspective was really cool. And the cutscene stills looked beautiful as well.

Neat.

I loved the fact that the 1st mission of AC4 takes place in the same region as AC2. And the final mission of AC4 takes place in the 1st mission of AC2. I loved the stories on Strangereal. I didn't mind Assault Horizon too much besides the stale characters and dogfighting mode.

>>283541958
Yeah I started the series with 4, then went back and played 2 then it's remake and recognized the area and started geeking out.
This thread actually made me kinda depressed because my PS2 is home and I'm not.

I've been working on a top-down dogfighting game inspired by Ace Combat. Minus the fact that gameplay-wise it won't be like Ace Combat at all but never mind.

Programming AI is really hard.

>>283542261
Just emulate it my friend. The PS2 emulator has gone far and the holy trinity is actually playable now! You'd get FPS drops on 3rd person view on some missions though but its better in cockpit mode I say!

>>283542410
Yeah I have an AMD CPU and my experiences emulating in general are pretty rough.

>>283542354
For some reason this webum is mesmerizing.
Also that seems really cool, as long as you don't make the "hard" enemies bullshit in that they just have a ton of health or magically avoid your shots you should be fine.
Godspeed anon.

I don't know what an appropriately crazy final boss would be based on WW2 technology. This fucking thing was SWON's final boss but speaking in Ace Combat terms it would be more appropriate as a kind of roadbump halfway through the game.

That could be put into some air fleet. Alongside with some huge Hresvelgr like bomber. You know for carrying the fighter protection along

Although personally some Pixy fight would be what I'd go with or the good old giant base/tunnel run thing.

The MP is fun, but sadly it's pretty much dead on PC these days.

I could play someday with you over steam tho if you want.

>>283553407
It was just missile/evasion spam when I played it back when it was new.

I also still suspect that there were cheaters around when I was playing. Or the killcam was bugged as it kept showing me this guy just hovering in place always killing everybody.

So is Cipher actually Mobius 1?

>>283555580
could he be scarface 1 or does the timeline prevent that? i forget if AC1 is in 1995.

>>283555808

It's all the subtle hints in 0 that makes me think he's Mobius 1.

Reminder that Ace Combat 6 is just as good as Ace Combat 4, 5, and Zero in every way.

>>283557576

Except story.

But I'd say it makes up for that by having better gameplay and graphics.

If you think Ace Combat 5 had a better story you haven't fairly judged it.

<< Opinions incoming. >>

Story wise:

4 > Zero > 5 = 6

All 4 games are pretty amazing though.

I'd go with 5 as the best one storywise still, perhaps I just like the characters more or because we got to see so many nice CGI cutscenes. Either way to me 5 felt more like a journey than the others.

But they're all damn close together.

While the dance with the angels was corny
(and the characters were pretty forgetttable)

it was a good game, the missions were pretty fun and straight forward, loved the system where you can order your forces to blow the crap out of anything, you just press the D-pad up and you see a bunch of missiles pass by to kill your targets. Really satisfying.

>>283520435
Its my second favorite AC game (below 5). The graphics and the game play felt great. I loved those named enemy ace pilots that would be scattered around the map and when you killed them you got their color scheme and a bio about them. Add some flavor to a game that was really lacking story wise.
