Does anyone think if AC8 does well we're going to get a AC3 remaster? I've heard that remastering AC3 would cost more than remastering all the other games combined (prior to 7) but I don't know how true that is.

Anyone here play Nuclear Option? It's only $20 and is a flight sim somewhere between the autism of DCS world and Ace Combat. I just picked it up and played for a couple of hours, and it's pretty fun, haven't tried it with my HOTAS yet. It has multiplayer too

>>60594I've felt tempted by it for 6 months, but I find the sim elements a little bit off putting because I genuinely love simple gameplay, especially when it comes to controls. But if I ever did change my thoughts on lite flight sims, I'd go for it over War Thunder every second of the day.

Ace Combat 8 news/release date will probably be announced later today at the ABSOLUTE STATE of play.

glad they added shock wave effects, wonder if it will have some effect on gameplay

>>60943A while back there was a clip of clouds parting in a very large circular pattern and the recent trailer showed a clip of a nuke/extremely large explosion going off. I think it's safe to assume the two are going to be paired together, and that will increase visibility at times.
I like how the land battleship is completely unhinged. Like it's not even a good idea in theory. This is exactly what I wanted in 8. It even gives ground attack planes more purpose, which is one of many areas where 7 fumbled really hard. Maybe they'll go crazy and we'll get to fly into space to fly through the cylindrical satellite shown in the recent trailer? What if the space elevator is converted into some kind of rail gun and we literally get shot into space with it? Maybe the new fictional super plane is capable of space flight as well as atmospheric flight? At this point it could happen. Ace Combat 3's scifi setting is only about 10 years away in-universe.

>>60916I've never pre-ordered a game before but I'm tempted to do it with AC8 just for the vinyls. Zero is an added bonus but Ace Combat vinyls just sound pretty cool.
>>60951One thing I did notice about the land battleship, and as much as I hate even bringing Project Wingman up, the land battleships look very close. I wouldn't be entirely surprised if Bamco took some cues from PW.

>>61014I'm fine with the black guy in your squadron, but not the Captain of the Carrier. The funny thing is that a black Captain would be fine, but a black woman? And with that "tough girl" voicework? No way fag. I'm not a kneejerk reaction kind of person to real life political crap shoved into games, but that was 100% forced by Bandai Namco to meet "western diversity expectations" probably 3+ years ago when that kind of thing was still a major plague. The game seems like it will be decently long, and hearing her all the time is going to be the aggravating point of dialogue in the game.

>>61011>>61012>>61013Interesting. I guess he wasn't supposed to show those missions yet? Even though all of the people who played the game are allowed to use all of the footage they want from those 3 missions? I guess they just weren't supposed to show the entire mission played through normally and there was a misunderstanding? Weird.

>>60983>I wouldn't be entirely surprised if Bamco took some cues from PW.Considering Ace Combat is the direct inspiration for Project Wingman, I think it's fair for them to trade back and forth. I should play the PW DLC missions soon.

>>61103Its a good DLC and I find the WSO to be bearable unlike Prez, but story wise its almost identical to the Crisp White Sheets trilogy

At least I know these parasites will die off a week or two before GTA6 drops at the very latest. Thank goodness flying gameplay sheds retards better than a duck sheds water. Many will leave to overly dramatize the slop that Xbox will drop in a couple days, and even more will fall off when Nintenyearold shows whatever they have later this month. It's retarded because these two groups CONSTANTLY cry about the state of video games and how nothing is simple or innocent anymore, yet they continue to be the main cause of problems. They should all be killed.

>>61254I want it on PC, but it's hard to justify paying anything when I have it and the DLC missions on console.
I might pirate it. I was stupid and preordered the deluxe version of AC8 on Steam 2 days ago, so all things considered I feel morally justified.

nuclear option is a gem (evendoe i'm terrible at it) and flying jets is much more fun when you don't have diversity hires constantly yelling in your ear

>>61166I beat it a few minutes ago. It was pretty good. The final battle has some balance issues, THOUGH. The Airship Faust is in is way too maneuverable and fast, this is totally unessicary because there are plenty of fighter escorts to handle the dogfighting role and keep you on your toes, and it just looks wrong to see something that big move like that. Some of the targets on the front of it feel like they can take 1 too many missiles. I've also always hated how rail gun trails can hurt you in PW, just use lasers if you're going to do that sort of thing. The really big flak canons fire too frequently as well, making the fight a bit too spamish and overly punishing for less maneuverable aircraft. Overall, it feels a bit untested.

>>61204they don't care about gameplay though, they'd rather just whack off and/or complain about the characters and story and whatnot. at best they'll forget about the game in a year or so. Given how the series has become slightly more mainstream i would also expect more gooner garbage but still not to the extent of a lot of games.
>>61274i've been looking at nuclear option it just never goes on sale
>>61373The flak cannons were genuinely cancerous to play against and this is coming from a guy whose beat Crimson 1 on merc difficulty with every plane. The whole fight is annoying namely because of your listed reasons, its way too maneuverable which makes lining up shots with bombs (one of the most effective tools against the ship) hellacious along with bad hardpoint placement making MLAA's hard to use effectively. Trying to go guns or use standard missiles on it is hard because you get destroyed by flak guns.

i think the pink haired bitch all the redditroons are gooning to cuts her hair at some point in the game so she fills the niche of the Token Tomboyβ’ character that every ace combat game has

My respect for you drops by 33% if you call an F-16 a "Viper". No respect for the "Hi-Lo" philosophy of the F-15 (Eagle) and F-16 (Fighting Falcon) historical names.

Another day, another person says one Ace Combat game is melodramatic but the others aren't. I'm convinced nostalgic ESLs can't truly be reasoned with because they don't really understand what's being said and have those rose tinted glasses on top of that.

>>64544Assuming you play it on decent good PC, the graphics look comparable to DCS in a lot of ways, and in some ways (ground topography) possibly even better. I know basically all the footage we have right now is running on a 5080, and the official stills like that one were likely taken on a 5090, but still, this game is going to look really good for years to come. This might be the game that convinces me I need more than a 3080, because I know I'm going to have to turn down a lot of settings to get a good native framerate and resolution because raytracing on anything less than like a 4090 is kind of crap. I've become a bit of a snob and really want to hit 120fps in as many games as possible.
