  • I do not post multiplayer videos because it is not my intention to show-off and embarrass other players. I really do not benefit in any way by doing so. All I wish to say is please don't play like this in multiplayer. It does not make it fun whatsoever.

    Hi everyone, it’s been just over a year since I uploaded this video. Yesterday, I received an apology from one of the players featured in the video and I apologized in return. I’m glad to say that this matter has been cleared peacefully and maturely. Along with this, I also asked the player if I should delete the video and they responded with, “No, you don’t have to delete the video. The video has a good message and reminded me just how small and niche this community actually is, and the importance of maintaining a good environment in multiplayer”.
    Since the new year, I have managed to move on from this petty issue and realized my own faults when it occurred. Unlike what the title suggests, I continue to play multiplayer for both leisure and content creation because it doesn’t make sense to stop playing just because this occurred. It was incredibly childish of me to say that and I apologize for that. Moments like this shouldn’t define our perception of online games nor should they be the way online games are played. I’m really happy that the players and I could resolve this matter and I hope this serves as a learning experience for everyone as it was for me and the players.

      I don't know that you had anything to apologize for in my opinion. Looks like you got even and they learned there lesson. I legitimately don't think you did anything wrong. "Hey this kind of mentality sucks and it makes me not want to play." Is the statement you made and I think it still stands. It's not childish to call people out in a reasonable manner. It's nice to hear though that you met with the person after all this time and they've either become better people or learned from it. We all do stupid stuff in games from time to time or act in stupid ways and at least in video gaming it shouldn't define us.

    One thing I noticed about AC7 multiplayer and because of how limited it is, I'm sick of having to just literally fly in circles (looping top to bottom) just to avoid missiles. Like, that's not how you dog fight at all. Every match everyone and myself just does the same loopy loop.

      Other solution is to put AoA delimiter like Project Wingman.
      Other is put a Pixy MPBM that denies a looping area like ACZ.

I'm not a new player by any means, but when you are using other aircraft to expand your skill and combat roster only for some ass in an F-22A, ADF-11F, or an X-02S to come in and just wipe like that isn't fun. It doesn't take skill to win matches in those OP aircraft. It takes skill to win matches in literally anything else. Get good with a diversity of aircraft. There are over 60 in the game I believe. People need to learn how to have fun in multiplayer instead of ruining everyone else's fun.

    Man this reminds me of a time where some people where doing a TDM and i thought "Ok this seems like it's going to be a fair balanced game" then next thing the 3 people on my team left leaving me with 1v4 and i was in a Mig-31B (Dogfighting build) so they all came after me even though the other 2 players were low levels but i ended up killing them and the 2 rookies left after a few kills on them but the other 2 which were high rank players one of them were using ADF-11F (w/UAV's) and the other guy was in the F-15S/MTD (w/HPAA's) and surprising enough i was actually killing them even though yes they were skilled but they couldn't handle my Mig-31B and they ended up quitting right before the timer hit zero and funny thing was they we're 14,000 points on there team and me having 125,000 points (Which TDM has a maximum of 200K points). Now how bad do you have to be to lose to a Mig-31B in a dogfight while in the ADF-11F and F-15S/MTD?.
    EDIT: the 3 people on my team left before the game even started and yes i did feel bad for the low level players i meant no disrespect to them.

One of them is on my channel showing the good, more often seen side of multiplayer. Of course I had games like this, but it meant easy first place. That's why i mainly use two aircrafts. X02S because of the stats and Darkstar, because unless you have HVAA you can't take it down no matter what. That also increases the fact I use Next gen pressure componets lvl.2 and variable cycle lvl.2, that makes it a litteral speed demon. But I would tell you to give it a few more tries, because you'll encounter more games played the right way (everyone vs everyone) then the one you recorded (one vs everyone else)

  • @uberschnilthegreat22
    @uberschnilthegreat22 Před 11 měsíci +2

    Certainly been in this kind of situation before. My reactions whenever it happens tend to vary wildly from each case, but I can make 2 reliable observations across all of them. *SP.W Enabled targetings are almost always a dreadfully miserable experience,* as there are so many BS ways you can die to unbalanced weapons (F-22 QAAMSPAAM, X-02 casually deleting someone on the other side of the map in a fraction of the second, ADF-11 UAV swarms) while SP.W Disabled targetings are much more enjoyable and can be a good challenge, as it's much more purely down to the skill of the players, but there are still clear 'meta aircraft' to use in SP.W Disabled matches (Su-57, Rafale M, Su-35S, and Su-30SM), and deviating from the meta can cause a world of headaches. I know this firstand as I'm an F-14A main in a world of Raptors, Flankers, Felons, and Belkan supercraft.
    AC7's SP.W and just overall Aircraft balance is completely off the kahoots, as:
    A: There are aircraft that simply put are not competitive in any capacity regardless of whatever part combination you put on them compared to the group average, while there are also aircraft that are objectively among the most braindead and / or overpowered. Among the most useless are the F-16C, MiG-31B (following the inclusion of the Darkstar), and A-10C, while among the most blatantly Overpowered include the F-18E TGM, X-02S, and ADF-11, and the most Braindead include the F-22, Darkstar, and again the ADF-11.
    B: DLC aircraft seem to sometimes get overshadowed by future DLC aircraft (Powercreep), example being when the TG:M DLC came out, as the TG:M F-18E was superior to the previously-added F-18F Block III in almost every way when it came to airframe performance, and has better SP.Ws to choose from for Multiplayer. (The F-18F Block III [And the F-2A Super Kai] felt as if it was meant to be used exclusively in Campaign, while the F-18E TG:M felt tailor made for MP.)
    C: The X-02S was designed to be the most OP aircraft in the entire game *intentionally*, because one of the directors had liked how the Strike Wyvern looked so much, so it can be reasonably assumed that the Wyvern's stats were forcibly buffed during development because of developer bias. This is fine in the context of older Ace Combat games like 4, 5, and 0, where online multiplier didn't exist at the time and you had to look for the parts to make the prototypes in the missions, but in AC6, where Online battles were introduced, they specifically addressed this problem by making it optional to ban the CFA-44 in lobbies. True, you have to beat the game to unlock the X-02 for purchase, but that's about it. The ability to ban certain aircraft is obviously absent in AC7 Multiplayer, and I guarantee the state of MP would be much better if this had been done. (Much less EML X-02, UAV ADF-11, and QAAM F-22 spam). As a side note, being able to ban certain special weapons likely would have also helped, but that may be going a bit far.

Managed to kill him last second and squeaked first place lol. I think my score was higher than both theirs combined but I don't remember.

    I normally despise the EML Wyvern build, but they were asking to be rail gunned, good stuff

      @_Phantom_ I prefer my F-15J Missile spam build, but I took a keen interest in the Mig-21 MGP build as well, dogfighting in low end fighters is fun

      The Su-30SM and MiG-29bis are in the aircraft tree in the base game but the XFA-27 will only appear in the tree once you acquire the Original Aircraft Series DLC or buy the XFA-27 set individually.

    The short time I played online, I usually used the Darkstar. Kept flying circles around the map. Nobodys missles could touch me. I was shot down a few times, only because I slowed down.

    i remember back when used to play ac7 MP that i would always get people to use their reverse sweep wing aircraft simply because i would keep up with their f-22 in my f14d lol, so annoying but so funny too
