You're just jealous because it's beautiful.

Not sure if anyone still cares about Infinity right now, but Doko Demo Issyo (Literally what) collab challenges are up.

Quite a few challenges requiring specific planes, but there are 4 that reward 50k credits each using each plane types (Fighter, Attacker, Multirole, Pistons).

I'm not an expert on this, but just guessing, wouldn't having the fuselage elongated like that induce more Gs on the pilot during a pitch change, as in being further away from a fulcrum?

Are you for real? Only a few skins were free. As the game began dying only a few more skins and the multiplayer maps became free, while some of the free shit was being pulled off the marketplace for god knows what reason.

>>124563279
I got this burning feeling that those UAV carriers won't even be considered the mid campaign boss. Seems like the reveal is too early.

>>124563385
By the power of Belkan Space Magic
Don't lie, you know it to be true

>>124563385
The propellers spin really really fast

>>124563627
I'm betting on the space elevator being the big bad.

>>124563385
There's theoretically impractical options.

Osea has a mass driver, so they could build something like that to give it a push into the air. There now appears to be a space elevator so it could've been built high up on it because fuck logic and practicality we want this thing off the ground. Could've been piggybacked on any other flying nonsense kind of like a glider launch.

>>124563597
Woah....so this is....the power of belkan clay

>>124563705
I think the Space Elevator will relate to the mid campaign boss. Either that or Belka will just tip it over causing it too fall on a city or something.

>>124563838
>>Could've been piggybacked
>build an even bigger plane to launch your already impractically large plane

Yup, it's Belka

>>124563084
The big flying thing? The one that launched UAVs which the Osean F-22 shot down?

Or are you assuming we're playing Euresan underdogs this time haha it'd be cool to be part of a new yellow squadron but nope

>>124563079
Its made on UE 4, there's no reason for these not to be ingame screenshots

High quality trailer download here http://www.allgamesbeta.com/2015/12/ace-combat-7-announced-for-ps4-includes.html

>>124564018
or they're building some super space weapon and are using the elevator to transport the pieces.

>>124564018
Knowing Belka and PA they'll probably use it for building a colony, and dropping it somewhere on Osea.

>>124564117
So, can we have a mega-carrier full of Aigaions?

>>124564117
>build an even bigger plane to launch your already impractically large plane
A huge plane to launch a big plane that launches lots of little drone planes.

It was at this moment that AC5 became my favorite PS2 game. All that enemy chatter freaking out about the Arkbird was so gratifying. Having a super weapon on your side was great.

>>124564160
No we must get more Belkan. They're building the elevator to get a tractor beam in range so that they can stop the orbit of the moon, dooming the coasts of Osea and the Yukes.

>>124565393

I solved it.

The space elevator connects StrangeReal with RealStrange, and Theodore Roosevelt rode it to cross dimensions.

>>124565702
Also, they could be upscaled. 2000x1208 is an odd resolution

>>124565743

>>124564493
>>124565412
They could always just edit screenshots. Guess we won't know till later.

I wonder if they will keep the destruction gore. It was a nice edgy touch to the combat. ".

>>124566114
I hope so. I'd prefer some sort of particles and such

I hope we get contrails like AC6 again, that shit looked nice.

>>124566401
Infinity doesn't have them?

>>124566473
Not quite, I don't think?

I remember being able to see obvious furballs in the distance in AC6 and there's plenty of opportunity for that in Infinity but I can't say I've noticed it. Maybe I'm blind.

>>124566473
No, they were pretty strictly exclusive to 6. Was meant to go with the whole "angel" theme the game had going, as if you really were flying through the heavens, so to speak.

>>124566838
>as if you really were dancing through the heavens, so to speak.
fix'd

>>124566643
>>124566838
Why. Implementing the contrails wouldn't even be that hard, wouldn't it?

>>124565743

When Infinity was announced and information started coming out I got super excited because they sorta mixed Earth and Strangereal.

I had this theory that Earth sorta became Strangereal after the Ulysses asteroids or something, and thats why the planet sorta looks like ours

>>124566643
Infinity doesn't render things past a certain distance. It uses the assault horizon engine which was made for only up close.

>>124566973
Well yeah, that's kind of what happens in Infinity. If there was more story maybe we'd get more than just bootleg USEA.

>tfw HCAAs seem actually decent
But do they get faster at higher lvls? the fuckers crawl at lvl 2.

>>124566941
It'd be too much graphic processing for the system to handle. I already see slowdown often enough on Adriatic.

Do you guys think the story to Infinity will be completed?

>>124567287
Slightly faster. You'll get the shits trying to hit anything flying at a decent speed away from you at 2000m+ though.

>>124567493
no

It's finished, as in, it's purposely incomplete. "Infinity" in the title means the war goes on forever.

The campaign is just the prologue to the Online Co-Op.

Missions 1-5 establishes what USEA is, why the UNF hires the players to go on the Co-Op missions, and why players have to keep on fighting on the same maps over and over.
7 gives a reason for why the Butterfly Master keeps on reappearing, and 6 & 8 are initial strikes that allow UNF can send players on the Co-Op missions into Eastern Europe/Russia. Likewise, 8 shows that the meteor drop reoccurring in Tokyo every so many missions isn't a coincidence.

The story isn't "We're gonna stop USEA and the Butterfly Master", it's "The UN and USEA are gonna have massive airbattles forever."

>>124569204
X, yes.

X-2 (Joint Assault), no. It's set in... "RealStrange". It's our Earth's geography and similar history, but with traditional Ace Combat shenanigans (giant air battles, famous aces, super weapons, etc). It's a similar feel to Infinity.
Assault Horizon is literally our Earth, no superweapons or anything, totally separate continuity from RealStrange. There's even a line from a pilot mentioning "Ace Combat", so in the AH world Ace Combat is a video game series to them.

>>124560934
You know, I'm still excited for AC7. But immediately after watching the trailer for the first time I felt a little unsure. I couldn't tell you what felt wrong but something did. Then I gave into the hype and had a great time. But after watching the trailer a few more times, I think I can articulate why.

Look at AC0’s trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uzBO0XV6Jps

It’s very melodramatic and yet cool in that distinctive AC fashion. It shows off lots of great music and action and it’s got that great corny AC dialog. More importantly, it shows off actual parts of the game; the way the planes fly and the cutscenes/characters look.

None of that is in the AC7 trailer. Take the voice acting. It’s ACX-tier bad and sheds no light on the story. It’s not just poorly acted, it’s generic with no real meaning or context. And then there’s the “gameplay” or what substitutes for it. I know that what we’re seeing isn’t what the final gameplay will be like, but it doesn’t look like classic AC gameplay. Instead the planes follow each other real close in what looks like DFM, not to mention those ridiculous missiles. I know it’s not what the final build will look like, but why would they choose to make it look similar to DFM in a debut trailer? It’s doesn’t give off that classic AC feel. The whole thing felt generic. Like it was something some western studio would do for an unrelated project. If I had seen this trailer with no knowledge of AC I would have told you it was a generic arcade game with no story pumped out so there could be a VR-compatible game at launch.

I’m still looking forward to AC7. But I feel more concerned than I would have if they had just made a press release with no material, and that bothers me. Even after the end of this trailer I still have no idea what kind of game AC7 will be. Hopefully we get a clearer (and good) picture as they release more promotional material.

>>124569459
Wasn't Melissa the lady with the daughter or are you talking about Shamrock's wife WHO MAKES THE BEST QUICHE AND BRING A BOUQUET OF FLOWERS FOR HIS DAUGHTER I uh what were we talking about?

>>124569625
Yes, that's Melissa, and his husband died in the blitzkrieg, in one of the cutscenes it's kind of implied that she recognized her husband's bug's wreck too.

>>124569162
It was a few months ago. We were trying to discuss the personalities of the player characters.
I think the popular theory was he's just a NEET who lives in base housing, playing videogames and collecting anime figures.

Wait, what? I don't remember that detail being in the cutscene, and the wreck was charred too.

It turns out Infinity is just a video game in the strangereal universe.

>>124569605
Well to be fair, you can't really compare ACZ's teaser to AC7's. ACZ already had loads of history behind it whereas we're essentially going in blind with AC7. AC4 had a similar trailer, iirc, and its story didn't end up being as worldly as AC5, ACZ and AC6 - all of which were kind of connected by a narrative thread of varying tension: Belka

We've returned to Strangereal proper for the first time in... almost ten years, my god. It's kind of expected of them to tease it as they did, even if the execution of the tease itself was pretty underwhelming.

>>124570078
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ye0uA-AZgMo&list=PL0F73CE7E2617F2B3&t=220s

Now the unrelated odd thing is that earlier in the cutscene her husband's face is obscured in a photograph like what Blaze had all through AC5 but Talisman is obviously not Melissa's husband.

http://strawpoll.me/6187995/r

>>124570479
Belka is hardly relevant to AC6. You could beat the game without ever getting to know that Aigaion was the brainchild of a belkan defector.

Weirdly enough, remember how the early trailers for ACI had two parallel lines in place of where the two ls for "fell" were? And then how at the end of the last campaign mission in ACI the same thing, but with a another line that connected the two separate lines? You can see it here: https://youtu.be/IhpEgbzHhLY?t=20m40s

What if the two lines are the strangereal and realstrange worlds and the line is them connecting in AC7?

as well as the answers you've already received, I think it's just a product of it's time. Trailers these days are often very sparse on details and tend towards teasing more, in particular for already established properties.

I'm not a marketer but I think the idea behind it is to build a "question" or some sense of mystery or intrigue. That builds hype in the audience and makes them want to find out the answers to the questions the trailer raises. You see it with contemporary movie trailers too.

Playing Zero with PCX2. Is the ground supposed to be fucking up? And the sound gets slow or laggy.

Is my PC just shit?

Everyone who knows me knows that I have only one question - will there be Area 88 planes in AC7? And will they ever come back to Infinity? That's the only thing that matters to me at this point.

>>124571285
I actually really liked that the ACZ assault records list him as "MIA" instead of outright saying he moved to Estovakia. Makes me wonder what some of the other MIAs got up to.

Also was it ever actually hinted that the Aigaion is based off of the Hresvelgr or is that just fan wankery?

>>124572258
Ground and sound glitches are part of the package with PCX2 emulation. Ace Combat is always gonna be a bit glitchy unless you're on software mode

>>124572258
They have emulation difficulties.

>>124571062
I doubt they're going to jump the shark that bad, more likely it was alluding to how the series was "jumping" from the realstrange universe back to the strangereal universe

I get the feeling the Erusean-colored Mobius emblem is something that's going to appear in AC7 considering we already know Erusea is part of it

>>124569967
>>124570479
>>124571068
Yeah, that makes sense. I'm sure that once they were sure they wanted to make it they wanted to get a trailer out to quell the idea that Infinity is a last minute cashgrab before the final end of the series.

Yes
You have to use software mode to emulate them properly, and if you're getting slowdowns in hardware mode then I'm guessing you CPU isn't near beefy enough to handle it

In all honesty, it depends on wether it's on WG or on AC. Generally speaking the average AC player usually is creative and doesn't give a shit about energy management, don't make use of the third dimension much.

Also I can't empathize how the average AC player thinks that the tighter the turns are the better it is.

>>124579772
In desert arrow for any air target I usually just fired off one missile and let a wingmate finish it off while I shot at other targets. Did wonders during the waiting times.

>>124579916
Problem I had was with running out of ammo for my gun after pounding the ground targets. It took way too long for the dumb AI to take out an enemy for me.

>>124579647
Hope the Nighthawks is top 3000....

>>124580090
I generally stopped firing my gun before the target was dead in order to save ammo. More often then not people end up using more then needed due to bullet travel time and the want to kill a thing until it's dead.

>>124580240
Good point. Time to boot up the PS2

>>124580361

Why is everyone so worried about that weird Cobra meaning DFM ? The Yellows did Cobras in 04, it's just that it was never useful and they'd get shot down everytime they did it.
If they can implement a proper Cobra, one that isn't on rails and pauses the game for cool cinematics, I'd get all giddy.

>>124592539
I don't think he meant the cobra bit, konno said the footage wasn't pre-rendered, that it's in-engine and the chase scene looked awfully like DFM, now as for pulling cobras, I tried pulling one off in NTDM, does nothing but gets me killed

>>124593040
>>124592539
Anyone else notice when the camera for the F-22 returns to normal after taking out the flanker, it has that DFM feel to it? Like when you exit DFM or exit a QTE in AH and the camera returns to normal.

>>124593261
But the camera cut to the normal one after shooting down someone in AH. I always found that incredibly jarring.

"In engine" doesn't mean actual gameplay, it's obvious that the entire event was built with the trailer in mind

not trying to doomsay anything, just a concern, that said, the series does need some serious gameplay update though, critics of the series say that the gameplay hasn't really changed much since 2 with minor tweaks and additions here and there until AH came along and gave us that infernal DFM among other things.

but there are 2 kinds of first person view

>>124597117
Why would you use the shitty one

>>124596881
I fly like a true ace, that's all I have to say.

>>124596881
I thought everyone was playing in 1st person, interesting

>>124596828
Only true for everything past Tekken 5.

Though to be fair, Tag 2 and Revolution aren't mainline games.

>>124596265
21 years.

>>124597472
I play 3rd because I like looking at my plane

>>124596265
The first Tekken was released in December 94 in jap arcades and the PS1 version was released in 95. It was a launch title like AC1 was.

Will AC7 be the ultimate AC game, featuring 5's dialogue system, 0's ace style system, and 6's multiple ground and air operations?

>>124597597
Which is pretty much the last 10 years of Tekken. And Tekken 7 is already out in arcades so it's not like it's a surprise that'll shake people but I digress

>>124598463
>Dialogue system
Woof << >> Woof
<< Woof! >>

>>124596881
Third person.
Unless I'm using the FALKEN, in which case first person all day erry day.

>>124598463
>not wanting 5's dialogue system, X's mission selection system and 6's operations system

>mfw just using my supplied on Retro Tokyo Hard for the credits has raised my MR by 50 points in 2 days because I MVP more than 70% of the time on it.

In other news, temporary hard mission bonus is gone.

>>124596881
I can't play in cockpit view because the cockpit is just on the screen in front of me and not all around me. I don't feel like I'm in the cockpit, I feel like I'm staring at a picture of a cockpit on my screen. Which I am.

The new VR system might actually solve this, or at least make it feel more realistic.

I just got back in Infinity, do Retro missions pays a lot?
I'd rather avoid flying retro planes entirely if possible but is the credit boost that big or something?

>Try that under 1500cst room for the first time
>Take my LAAM R-101 and strip it's useless parts
>Suddenly it's 1490 cst while playing the same way
>steamroll everyone easily

I knew this wouldn't work at all

>>124599987
I like LAAM on Fenrir as 4AAM on multirole is shit. However QAAM is also shit, and I prefer LASM more on Fenrir.
Now I am not sure whether I go full goy in this tourney to get this black bitch or just keep flying my beautiful silver-grey vanilla and wait for the return of Mobius.

>>124600513
Retro missions pay the same as any other missions. No reason to play them unless you enjoy them.

>>124600513
>do Retro missions pays a lot?
No, it was a hard mission bonus that lasted until the end of the Rena Flanker tourney.

It's just that a lost of the times the non-clubber hard rooms I found were piston rooms, so I joined them.

If cost restricted TDM happens, I am considering buying the golden goy skin and use this build.

When is the tourney to win the Double Nugget?

>>124602484
Upcoming cost restricted tourney. 1500 total cst. Only if the leak is correct and bamco doesn't change any details.

>>124602484
Probably right after Alect.

>>124603149
I'm expecting Cipher or Razgriz re-run after Alect.

>>124599781
Maybe you should try your hand against Dick Bong anon. See what kind of ride you're taken on.

>AC7
>Not assault horizon 2


why...

>>124587912
You all might, but I had planned on getting a PS4 anyway, the is just further justifies my purchase over an Xbox one. It already has a solid list of titles.

>>124603391
Probably would get destroyed.

Dick bong anon can keep up with mr 2100 jets on his piston iirc. I can only keep up with 1900s. I'm only level 11 though.

>>124599781
>>124603391
I'm seeing a lot of1300+ cst props around. Mine is as -FA- at lv. 10 so it means a LOT of people are bringing theirs to lv. 11 and above. There's always some fucker scoring more than 90k.

This is great news for the next prop TDM.

>>124596881
>>124597472
I think first person is more authentic but sometimes I find it difficult to "position" myself when the planes is flying very fast, and sometimes even a bit of dizziness. I think 3rd person gives a better notion of spatial positioning. That said, as others mentioned, I like to see the plane I'm flying too.

>>124596881
I use first person (real first person not the hud only version) most of the time but I also use third person sometimes to look at the waifu on my plane.

>>124587912
>implying I didn't already do this to play GZ when it was first released
