i like... NO! i Love... playing AC... cool planes, great graphics.. even AC2 is the first AC game i played first... it's the first time i witnessed the potential of this game... when AC3 is out... it's even cooler, somehow, AC3 resembles the japanese anime style. when AC4 is out, it dissapoints me a little, no great musics.. missions are boring... still from all AC series.. i still liked AC5 and zero... Razgriz Rockzz....
I think... IMHO AC5 and zero is as good as CnC generals ZH.... agree?

[DreadNot]

I'd have to agree. Only problem is with all the Ace Combat games is even though it'll say you're traveling at 200 mph it seems like you're going 30. I've noticed this on all the games.

[Foxhound]

well, 200 mph is your average speed so it seems slower. go 200 mph in, say, a racing game, and it seems very fast. see what I mean?

[VertiGo-]

well, i used kmph as my scale.. so everything may look faster than it is..
maybe it feels "slow" because you're flying high... you know.. when flying high everything looked the same... not to mention, great bosses you're fighting up against in all series, from tunnels,giant subs,even an outer space mission in the japanese version of AC3

[DreadNot]

When I fight against enemy planes, I fight low and fly in between buildings and through tunnels in mountains

So You get 40 feet above the ground and see it is. Trust me it should be 6 times faster than that.

I've seen a vid of someone dropping an FAEB and killing 2 low flying planes in a YA-10B in AC5. http://www.mx808.lun...m15alt_720i.wmv . Ace Combat has to be one of the most fun games (well the series). In AC4 alone, I logged 52 hours of flight time.

[VertiGo-]

i did that, once, i dropped a single FAEB and destroyed 4 AA guns and 2 choppers.. the problem is... if u have limited amount of bullets and you're using the A-10 series, u ran out of bullets pretty easily.. notice it? the gattling is such a bullet waster... look at the bullet indicator, it ran out of bullets faster than any other aircraft, but the power of those Avenger gattlings are awesome.. i was able to destroy scinfaxi (AC5) with the A10s gatts only...

[Whitey]

Duuwd, I was versing my bro in MP in AC4

I had an A-10 and as I flew over him, I dropped a bomb which killed him.

He was like "WTF"

It was ridiculously hilarious

[General123]

I have never played any of the Ace combat games, I have never actually seen the gameplay, I might go watch some gameplay vids now, Whats the best one in the series?

[Foxhound]

it really depends on who you talk to. most people think all the games are good. many will say 4, 5, or Zero. If you're really adventurous, you could try to find the Japanese version of AC3, which is supposed to be much better than the American version. many people like that too. I heard that Namco's considering doing a remake of AC3 for the PS3.

[Whitey]

Namco has some mental issues...

Here they have this absolutely gorgeous, excellent game, and they DO NOT make it online compatible.

Imagine a 32 player dogfight in the high mountains...

[DreadNot]

I'd own you all give me a moderately good aircraft and I can shoot down any pilot.

[Foxhound]

I'd plow a missile up your tailpipe any time with any plane. I've beaten many difficult missions with basic planes. Like Stonehenge offensive with an F-4E

[DreadNot]

Well that's easy, key is to stay low and you can win it with any plane.

[Whitey]

Personally, I wiped it out in less than 2 minutes into game, was at the site for probably under a minute. I used the tornado with bomblet dispensor.

[Foxhound]

first time out on that mission I used the F-117 with PGBs. Doesn't sound smart because of the jammer, but thats easy. I only beat it with an F-4 when I decided I would try it.

[DreadNot]

I took my precious time and took out every little thing on the ground. Which then I realized I didn't have enough ammo to fight the Yellows at the end because I didn't know I had to fight them.

[Flying Tigers]

It's all about skill, no matter what kind of planes you are using

[VertiGo-]

still,it's fun if it's online compatible and have the ability to make your own squadron, you can also costumize your squad, from color set.. etc...
i agree in namco's mental issues... they SHOULD make online AC...
i can P4Wn Jo0 AlL w1tH t3h 4|MiGhtY ADF X-02... hax 1337

[Foxhound]

yea, it would be nice if they put it online. custom paint would be awesome, and squadron support would be nice.

Just think of it, if you gain enough of a rep, people will run screaming rather than fight you

[Whitey]

Especially clan (squadron) battles, they would be intense

[Foxhound]

yeah. you could be like "this clan suuuuuuuuuucks" and then they could be like "o rly?!" and then you could go like "ya rly. in fact we challenge you!" and they'd be all like "we kick you @$$3$$" and then you could kick their assess and stuff....yeah.

[VertiGo-]

one more plus for AC, it has a good storyline compared to other plane shooting games... when in AC5 chopper died.. i cried... =p , well, almost... WHY DID CHOPPER HAVE TO DIE? #D XD

[Foxhound]

again, spoilers, but at least I know this one. he should've just bailed out when he had the chance.

I think he hit the Osean flag that was in the middle of the stadium.

id have to agree, but just imagine the On Line play would rock, i havent played in a while but i am able to dodge two of those QAAMs, 2a10s (firing everything), and a squadron of f-22 Raptors at once (had it happen in a mission), but only now use a10 or the f-22 Raptor myself. i dont use anything else unless i gotta.
