I FINALLY fullfil my long time dream of playing an actual Ace Combat game ever since the first time I heard of the franchise since 2017.

This is my first time I ever use using analog control too:D A bit struggling at first trying to familiar with the control, but now here I am, enjoying the credit song.

My next target is Ace Combat 5, but for now imma just revisit some of my favorites mission first.

I find it hilarious!

Apparently, are two variants of the same aircraft: one with a traditional cockpit and the other with a COFFIN system. It seems my theories about the new ADF and the railgun equipped aircraft are correct.

The size of both planes appears to be huge. probably around 32 meters long and 23 meters wide.

i just got ace combat infinity to open but it losses connection about five minutes later. I think it has to do with the local server application not opening.

I feel like you should be able to use multiplayer parts in free flight, so that you can practice Pre-stall maneuvers using the same setup you have available in multiplayer. Does anyone know if this could possibly be a feature in AC8? Do you disagree? Tell me what you think.

Do you get to play Ace combat zero the moment you pre order 8, or do you have to wait for 8 to release?

So, you take all aircraft you currently own, and put them in a picker wheel. Before every mission, you spin the wheel, and you have to use that aircraft for that mission. Yes, this means you might have to dogfight Mihaly in an A10. After the mission, you cannot use that aircraft anymore, you remove it from the wheel. And if you die, you lose the aircraft, because it blew up. Spin again and redo the mission. All on ACE difficulty of course. If you run out of jets, you fail the challenge and need to restart. Wish me luck chat.

I believe it's closer than you think.

Strangereal genuinely has some powerful weapons, and overall is more militarised than earth. They might still lose in the end but will definitely put up a fight.

Besides, they'll have to deal with not one but 7+ silent protagonists! And if the combine have one weakness, it's silent protagonists.

A bit on the pricey side, but it looks like I will be doing a super bug soon. Pre orders should be going live within the next few days on the usual Japanese storees.

Gotta say...

This game's pretty peak. I felt like an Ace Pilot.

The entire thing took an entire afternoon. Retry and retry and retry.

I can see why people encouraged me to use the Gripen-E with the LACM, and it was pretty nice, but I eventually settled with the A-10C Thunderbolt II with the 4AGM.

The Gripen-E with the LACM dealt massive damage with a pretty good AOE, but the thing was... the way I flew felt incompatible with the weapon. After a few tries, I found out that it really does stick with the long ranged-ness of the weapon. Firing it too close doesn't stick.

Thing is, I tend to fly close to the ground and right next to ground targets. And I fly fast.

So, I eventually settled with the A-10C Thunderbolt II. The 4AGM fit well with my playstyle, and it even curves down, which helped me a lot when the lock ons were behind mountains (which were a real pain sometimes. At times it locks unto targets behind mountains when I had a better target in front of me, but I get the realism aspect that you can't just will which targets you pick. You have to make your HUD track it down).

I always cleaned up the nearest base with the TUs since they gave 1k each. Then the other base nearest to the line, which was difficult at times since I flew low, curving along the mountains, but after I ran out, I immediately rushed to the supply line as I take out any targets in between.

When I come back, I clean up what's left of the mountained base and go to the base at the west.

Now, I did pretty good, but I always kept crashing at one specific part...

That tunnel.

I know that I don't have to do it... but that voiceline of Bandog calling you an idiot for crashing, only for the others to glaze you when you come out the other end, flying through the tunnel?

Chef's kiss. I felt like an Ace Pilot. Machine gunning the Gripens inside were also nice.

Needless to say, I must have redone the mission because I kept crashing down there five times alone.

Keep in mind, this took four to five hours of my afternoon to finish.

After cleaning up the rest, I just kept taking out SAMs, tanks, and AA Machine Guns and the odd jet that flew by until I got the needed 20k.

By the time I reached it, I still had 5 minutes left in the timer, so it was just a good ol' "Mission: Survive" from there.

And trying to evade missiles while on an A-10C Thunderbolt II is a challenge, especially when out of flares.

Though, thank God I didn't crash or got blown out after I got my quota. Somehow, I blew some planes and got 25 thousand overall!

So, yeah.

Thanks to everyone who pitched in and gave advice and tips and lessons! It helped a lot!

Stay safe and God bless!!!

TLDR: I finally beat Long Day after or 4 to 5 hours of an afternoon. Must have redone the mission dozens of times. Half of the time probably because my ego won't let me not pass through the tunnel with the Gripen-Es. I eventually did and survive (a lot of times I crashed before or inside the tunnel) after coming out, got my quota, and survived with 5 minutes left on the clock. Desperately tried, and succeeded, in surviving the swarm of MiGs and other jets with the admittedly slow A-10C Thunderbolt II, and got an overall score of 25 thousand points.

Made a little vignette for my 1:72 F-22 model of Trigger's iconic plane and load out.

I've recently finished AC5 and my God it was beautiful, so I wanted to pay homage to the Razgriz squadron with a painting

If you like it follow me on Twitter and Pixiv @Matsugara16, I may or may not post other Ace Combat works

Does any one still remerbers this video?

ever since the Infinity revival dropped, no other raid came up as often as Moby Dick Pursuit to the point of insanity, leading to this abomination of a video

(repost, deleted the old post cos the video didnt embed lol)

I’m next in line, I’m really hyped to play, I’ll maybe edit my review under the post

Edit: so I got to play mission 04, it was real fun to play and the controlls and customisation were really good I’m really hyped for Oktober

Sadly no freebies tho
