Is any buddy out there? I didn't get to say goodbye last time.

Can you make an Ace Combat thread that isn't a general?

>>1101960 Never thought about it.

>>1101253 Damn its been a while since i saw you guys

>>1102315 We died a couple of hours before 4chan did.

>>1102401 I has been a while for me since I haven't visited /vg/ since before covid

>>1102485 Did you move here by then or was /vg/ the only place you left behind?

>>1102514 I left behind the entire site besides /sp/ for football matches just to shitpost

>>1102555 And you moved here or did you check back on this place to see if there were any refugees you recognized?

how it felt to see the hiro sticky on /v/ right before the site got taken down https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=24s__TuWmS0

daily reminder that 7 was trash

>>1108963 Why is that? I know a lot of people were shitting on it but I thought it waa alright.

>>1108963 It was a rushed job, but not trash.

>>1113228 Yeah it was clearly meant to be more but what we got is still pretty fun imho

>>1101253 You know you can use more than 1 image when making a thread right?

>>1113228 For most people I believe it's because the story makes no sense under closer inspection and some of the lines get retarded even under 5's standards. For people who played the previous games the gripes become more personal. >>1118356 I do, it's neat, but I didn't see a reason for it.

>>1113228 >>1113832 ok trash is a bit strong. It's a solid 5/10. It's FINE. One can only pray to plane jesus that 8 is just as good as 4, 0, or 6. I would like to see multiplayer not so fucked. Some more gamemodes would not be remiss.

Yo Infinity /aceg/ buddies.. Any of you still alive? Miss those days. What are you flying now and where?

>>1135172 >Any of you still alive? I don't think so, most left a while after 7's release, even if they didn't it looks like most of what was left of /aceg/ hasn't found it's way here.

i feel like the Hrinfaxi is underrated

>>1144672 The mission, the boss battle or the boat design?

PW is better

It's good to see you buddies, even if we're far from home. >>1135172 Does it count if I found /aceg/ only after my fucking PS3 died? >What are you flying now and where? Typhoon represent, as always. By the way, you know that those two emblems are in the pack in the OP? >>1142021 It's a shame the Shootouts kind of died out again, and I'm really fucking mad that I actually hosted a Space Elevator shootout last time and only five people came.

CUM HISTORIA

>>1153593 All three, honestly.

>>1165348 I agree, I liked the concept of a submarine carrier so much that I ended up doing the unthinkable, playing Supreme Commander 2.

Happy easter /ace-egg/, and happy Operation Choker-One to Belka

MOBIUS ONE RESPOND

>>1170178 << no >>

How do the PSP games compare to the PS2 trilogy? I've had a hankering to replay them recently, or at least replay 4 and 5 and then zero for the first time, but I don't have a PS2 anymore and my only currently functioning PC is a Celeron powered x131e so PS2 emulation is out of the question. I do have still have my PSP however. Also are the PS1 games playable without dedicated R2 and L2 buttons? I know the analog stick can be used but it's a pain in the ass on games that make heavy use of those buttons.

>>1101253 >it took a fucking catastrophe to make me return here It's been a while, buddies. Are the old namefags such as Tom Brady and Pilot Anon still around? I really liked PA's drawings

>>1108963 Nah, it's pretty good. It's just unpolished here and there but it's a pretty solid entry, although still a notch below the PS2 Holy Trinity.

>>1178191 >Tom Brady Ignore this if you don't wanna be sad Turned out he lied about everything in his life, and turned tail when he was discovered. Claimed his fiance died, people actually looked through obituaries, and nothing came up; he admitted he made everything up and cut contact entirely. >Pilot Anon He lurks occasionally, but nowadays he mostly makes his own stuff. Comic buddy is making his own game, it's called At Skies' Edge. There's a demo on itch and it's pretty fun.

>>1178590 >spoiler Huh. What a shame, but I guess it's one less retard infesting this place, be it an oldfag or not. >At Skies' Edge So the dev is the same dude behind those comic strips that were posted once in a while? That's neat.

>>1179603 >So the dev is the same dude behind those comic strips that were posted once in a while? That's neat. Yep, the very same. It's kinda fucked up that /oursite/ exploded on the very day that I first found /aceg/.

>>1178590 >Comic buddy is making his own game Is that a separate thing from the anon that took over the github hosted bones of a plane arcade game and started posting his progress in old /aceg/?

>>1144672 It has a cool boss battle music

>>1203631 This is what Federation radar operators see when I activate the AOA module.

>>1178590 >spoiler Did he ever say why though?

I've tried my hand at making an F3H derivative original 50s style aircraft for a story I'm making. What do you buddies think? I'll modify the panelling in a bit, for now I wanted to show the overall state of its design.

>>1227753 I've tried my hand at drawing planes and it's pretty hard to get that blueprint style right. Looks sick, did you use a dedicated CAD program?

>>1227855 Nah, GIMP works perfectly fine. I got pic related from Richard Ferriere's website, and I touched it up to my liking thanks to the path tool, selection cut+paste, and using a ton of layers. You can see the contrast between the original parts and the things I drew over it.

>>1227753 Those belly pylons always looked funny to me. The canted twin tails are a nice touch.

Has anyone had success using any of the VR mods for AC7? I tried to get it to work a while ago, but every time I tried to inject with UEVR, the game would just crash. It looked like there were several different VR mods including some hidden in discord servers, so I'm not sure if I just got the wrong one.

>>1233295 I managed back in 2024 before I upgraded my PC. https://github.com/keton/ace-combat-uevr/releases Tried it again back in December with the new rig but it didn't work this time, never bothered to fix it as the Project Wingman DLC had just released, which had native VR and the VR modes never felt too good anyways though it's probably because going from VTOL VR to Ace Combat 7's or Project Wingman's VR didn't feel nice nor did it add a whole lot to the experience.

>>1233867 That's one of the ones I hadn't tried yet because the downloads are in their discord. Maybe I'll have to bite the bullet and try it. Personally I've had a blast playing PW in VR multiple times, which is why I was excited to try AC7 as well. I haven't played VTOL VR, maybe I'll check it out too.

>>1234499 >I haven't played VTOL VR, maybe I'll check it out too. It's more of a DCS like than an Ace Combat like so beware of that.

ok but which plane would u fug??

>>1240146 All of them, of course. >>1240143 You took a while to show up.

>>1240146 F35-chan tummy erotic ToT

>>1240146 All of them, of course.

>>1241979 Took a bit of a break. I expected 4chan to come back sooner, but then I read up on what happened and realized it wasn't going to be that quick.

Berkut? More like BerCUTE

I regret not checking the thread the day before 4chan took a shit, good to know that some of you buddies are here but it just ain't the same

>>1244961 Well, the thread died a couple hours before 4chan kicked the bucket so you wouldn't see anything anyways but don't worry, we're in there forever after all.

>>1247797 I wonder if other buddies are out there, elsewhere

>>1240143 Sukhoi? More like Sugoi!

>>1144672 top 3 aura farming moments of the entire franchise

>>1247797 it's back, I took initiative and made the thread again myself, I hope you buddies don't mind

>>1256531 I'm not going back.

>>1204275 Why he made it all up, or why he said that his fiance died? For the latter, >his version He claimed he wanted to slowly "cut the lies", but when confronted, he first replied with another lie (that he'd been dumped), when in reality this person never existed. When we pushed the tiniest bit more, he gave up and told us that they never existed. >what we think Desperately seeking attention and approval. He made up a long and internally consistent history talking about injuries, personal drama, and highly traumatising events, and he carefully curated this persona over all these years. It'd seem fucking outlandish if someone told you every single thing about him at once, but the weirdness gets filtered out if it's recounted over the span of eight years by someone careful to make it internally consistent. >>1260573 This site's objectively better from a usability standpoint, but everyone's come back already.

>>1242418 F-15S/MTD with the NASA markings is my go to plane. Next Ace Combat absolutely needs a cute WSO like Wingmand does.

>>1101253 <<FUCK OFF PREC>>

I have never played any of these games before, but I was always curious about them. I played the entirety of 4 in a single weekend on an emulator, and it was the most fun I've had in years. Loved it. Then played 5 and absolutely hated it. Hated the characters, hated the missions, hated the story. Couldn't even finish it. After the Four Horsemen mission, I gave up. Should I power through it, or skip and try a different game?

>>1285399 YES.

>>1285460 You could skip to 0 and play it without any worry(personally I played it 0 -> 4 -> 5). You will most likely enjoy 0, and after you finish it, you could try giving 5 another shot.

>>1285460 That's interesting because I really loved 5.

>>1285399 UOHHH SENTIENT PLANE EROTIC

>>1285460 Try 0, 2 and/or X. 2 is peak arcade, 0's story is not nearly as melodramatic and it's pretty short and not very gimmicky, X will remind you of 4 a lot but with a bit more gimmick missions.

>>1366884 Pussy shit not uploading the actual audio, but I get it. You just copied someone's joke on reddit or twitter.

>>1367616 That's OC you cocksucker, the lyrics don't fit AC at all you low IQ retarded nigger. Fuck you're stupid

>>1367616 >>1366884

>>1285399 > are you drunk? > cockpit access denied, get your filthy hands off me you animal!

>>1573573 > I'd never trust anyone pulling me at so much G-force except you.

>>1572595 >OC = take an instrumental of a random popular song and put a plane picture on it Fuck you're stupid.

What will they ruin and censor in Ace Combat HD?

>>1716216 leaked achd footage

AC5 has, for me, the best unintentionally funny moment: Beginning of the final mission: Edge: Blaze! Archer: Blaze! Swordsman: Blaze! YES < > NO

>>1716840 >Blaze, our allies are under attack, please help them!

>>1716227 >pic >tfw no Choro Q game with planes
