Is Pixy a dirty commie? He beilieved in the elimination of borders, but does that make him a globalist, or simply a ted kazinsky type, since he wanted to blow up the world?
He was wrong, however, as borders exist as long as humans do. Grog wants thog's women, and will do what he needs to get it. Borders literally cannot be eliminated, since they will reform, along new lines, old natural boundaries, between different types of people.
Or did Pixy know this, and want the extinction of the human race?

Back in 1995. And in his defense, he was extremely disillusioned and disgusted with the way things were heading and turning out. In his point of view at that point, he might have seen Cipher as part of the problem, especially on the Mercenary route. Anyway, that's not the point. Again, by the time the interview happens, he sees how wrong he was back then, admits a borderless world can never happen, is willing to see what borders can do for the world, and still feels a bond towards Cipher. When he says "I should have died that day," I don't think he was just referring to how that crash or his injuries should have basically killed. I think he means he deserved to die after all that he did.

>>165457635
Did you do all routes? Because Atmos Ring is better than Stonehenge in my opinion.

>>165458704
>he was extremely disillusioned and disgusted with the way things were heading and turning out
He was a mercenary. War is his job.

He even tells PJ to "learn to accept it", yet he himself couldn't.

>>165459037
>He even tells PJ to "learn to accept it", yet he himself couldn't.
That's right. You might call that "Pixy being a faggot", I call it him having depth as a character. That scene in the grand scheme of the story tells me Pixy was saying that to convince himself more than to lecture PJ. And he couldn't do it. Pixy was just as idealistic as PJ, but in a different way. The difference between the two is that PJ was steadfast in believing in his ideals. Pixy's faith, on the other hand, was challenged and doubted. He began to think his ideals, actions, and way of life, especially as a mercenary, was just adding fuel to a fire that would never go out at that rate. So, he decided to put his faith in Wizard 1's ideals. That's showing good character flaw.

>>165460803
>Pixy was saying that to convince himself more than to lecture PJ. And he couldn't do it.
Then maybe he shouldn't have become a mercenary.

>>165460939
It's not as simple as he thought war or bloodshed is bad. It seems he was under the impression that as a FIGHTER pilot merc, he would be put up against other pilots, not bombing civilians. There's a reason they show him hesitating to shoot down civilian homes and windmills in Annex so early on; it's to establish that even as a merc, he still values the lives of those not actively fighting him. If I remember correctly, German mercs had that same viewpoint during the American Revolutionary War.

>>165463354
>The chaplain then recounts the case of a Jaeger subaltern who was assailed "by an Englishman in his cups" with the declamation: "God damn you, Frenchy, you take our pay!" The outraged Hessian replied: "I am a German and you are a shit."

Hessians are cool

>>165463354
Anon, he was a mercenary. In order to become a private contractor, you must have military experience, have experienced combat, and overall not be a green fresh into war.

War isn't pretty, if anything, he should've expected the atrocities they'd ask him to do. Mercenaries do the dirty job national militaries can't after all.

No mission infuriates me as certainly and as effectively as Glatisant

fuck Glatisant

what is the one mission you hate with all your might, /aceg/?

>>165475367
How is Glatisant infuriating? You just bomb things. Sure it's kind of boring, but it's not inherently irritating.

Try Grand Flight, Sulejmani's last stand, Bug Hunt or fighting the 8492nd instead of running away and you'll see what "infuriating" means.

>>165475894

Blackbird in AC3 (US). Nothing is more of an example of what is unholy and sadistic. Fuck Namco for telling me to shoot down 4 planes at 40,000 feet in 90 seconds with something that handles about as well as a container ship.

If I could remove any single mission from the entirety of Ace Combat, it'd be FUCKING Blackbird. Nothing else in a video game has ever given me a splitting headache for being so pissed. Fuck Blackbird and fuck the sadistic prick who thought it up.

Stonehenge and megalith fucked me up when i was a kid, since i kept flying infront of the barrels and getting hit point blank, and the walls were scary
Now? Sorcerer squaron on ace is bullshit, as is the timing mission in ac5. The radar circles are just tedious, and i dont like those missions much

Should I buy an F-15 and be buddies with Pixy or continue flying my Typhoon

>>165489790
I managed to get a Terminator really early and played my first run on that. Somehow i got a Wvryn early too, early enough to beat sorceror squad with it

>>165490508
You get the planes from the ace squadrons you beat, though they're pretty expensive if they're actual good planes

since everyone fights gelb the terminator should be available from mission 7 on no matter what

>>165490720
Maybe i shot down a secret wevryn? Or i got it from my saves of ac4 and 5

In real life.
Given what the OADF threw up during the attempted invasion of Sand Island, I have a feeling Ace Comabt is a bit more Area 88.

Also Ace Combat tends to go light on the civilian atrocities. well actually the city bombing in ACX seemed petty, though iirc it was their "real" target in AC4 and Allenfort was basically "Well fuck it, we've flown all the way out here already" compared to real life. They even cut out the city-bombing escort mission from AC2 in AHL.

>Osea's president came within inches of being blown to fuck by Osean AA because "lol top secret"
You know the more I dwell on that the less sense it makes.

Unless he knew about the Grey Men and so on, and therefore had to sneak past his own subordinates.

>>165517565
>Allenfort
So the bombers just meandered over the GHQ and decided it'd be fun to fuck em up?

Probably Whisky Corridor or the C-5 escort mission.

Glatisant always makes me think it's going to piss me off by drawing things out for the full timer, but ends when you get the required score. which sometimes pisses me off when i'm trying to grind points.

Long missions with no checkpoint become infuriating when you crash due to a silly mistake with 1 minute left.

I still can't tell if Arkbird was based off a total misunderstanding of orbital physics, or if there is a time advantage to dropping into the atmosphere regardless of delta-V cost that would be worthwhile for a Ballistic Missile Defence craft

>>165525396
If you think about it, if the Ark Bird needs to adjust it's orbit, it can brake using the atmosphere without using reaction mass.

So you can slow down, wait for the spot you want to be to catch up with you, and then burn to get back up to speed and be geosynched.
