- Fun and optimization don't always go hand in hand, but here they absolutely do. If there's anything AH taught me, is how to break or avoid scripted battles.

Tank (with heavy thick armour): takes two missiles
Su30 (a light weight fighter jet): takes about 20
But... but... hes "minimizing the damage from each hit"!!!
30 times.
From an EML
At point blank range.
I blame Belka.
Belka would do NO SUCH THING.
...they'd just build a detaching front half and turn it into a two-phase fight.
And I don't want to think about that.
Komdiv Maklenskov lol too true
@@TayDude
Belka never did anything wrong just saying

Belka is the cause of all wrong!

It was all an elaborate plan. The metal that fell off his plane because of Bishop formed a new SU-57 Akula below him. Russia read the famous book "Belkan Superplanes For Dummies"
ikr its stupid
Only Trigger can beat MR.X
it means, Trigger real identity is LEON S KENNEDY
X gon' give it to ya!
Oh my god, january was the month of Misters X!

I really wish that this game had more fun and varied boss fights.
Maybe some rival Erusean/Belkan remnant squadrons like in Zero.
But instead it goes:
>Fight the invincible Arsenal Birb.
>Fight invincible Mihaly who can PSM at 2000km/h+ and then accelerate like a bullet.
>Fight the annoying ADF-10 mosquito.
>Fight the Arsenal Birb again only you just need to shoot two props to kill it.
>Fight invincible Mihaly again.
>Fight Mihaly again but now you can actually kill him.
>Fight the MISSILE Arsenal Birb MISSILE again but MISSILE this time you MISSILE can actually MISSILE kill it MISSILE.
>Fight Mihaly again but this time there's two of him and they're drones.
>Fight the annoying ADF-10 mosquito again but it's even more annoying this time.
So all in all it's 3 bosses repeated over and over.
We are lucky to have another Ace Combat. Try to enjoy the game for what it is. The "boss fights" are built around the games story, which is more belkan espionage and infiltration. The only boss fights AC4 had was Stonehenge and the Yellow Squadron which you fought multiple times. Literally no other boss fights.
You don't fight Ace Squadrons in this game but you do have special missions where you fight Ace pilots.
Get the DLC. The last mission probably has the best boss fight this game series ever had. :)
We have to be grateful for have a new game but that doesnt mean we cant say the problems in this game who really should be solved if they want to release other games
In the last arse bird fight I like to disarm it, take out all the drones and then kill it.
And yes, Mihaly's PSMs are more annoying than the plot armor. For you they're almost useless because you have to slow down below 450 km/h, but he moves like on rails. And moves at triple your speed even if you have the same plane as him.
Ace combat 5 had a few.
You had the Hrimfaxi the Scinfaxi both belkan squadrons the Solg the Ark bird.
Your instinct is correct, "Wilco Count" is when he loses the plot armor and you can hit him to end the sequence.
"Our Belkan secret plot armor can be deactivate only with one hyper secret sentence!"
*Wilco Count*
"DAMN IT. HOW IS IT POSSIBLE?"
CarlVercetti underrated comment
I just flew right at him, pitched up and dropped a UGB. Skipped all the scripting.
Wait is dat rly work?
Yep. Ace Combat, the game that lets you bomb fighter jets mid air
I can confirm this as well. My buddy and I both did this on Ace Combat 4. Also on AC5 you can shoot down a fighter jet while using guns before the gun reticle shows up.
That is very much possible now as well...
@@blaze6400 A10/FAE vs Aigaion in AC6 was pretty funny.
Not only does Mihaly have infinite plot armor like the shark, his flying is just as scripted.
Post Stall Maneuvers are effective to attack him too. Its pretty hard to use it against him, but when you get it, its another satisfaction level
just want to say, I managed to soft lock the game when i broke this sequence by destroying all of Sol Squadron before Fencer died with the Nosferatus' ADMM
Same, but with the Falken
I’ve been building a speedrun route this last month, I’m curious what all happened to it the soft lock? Would you mind elaborating?
Who wins
a Normal Battle with Sol
or
a Speedrun TugaAvanger breaking the logic of the game
or shaggy
He isn't breaking it, he just fast forwards it :3
@@Blind_Hawk you like drinking water in parties, right?
I know its irrelevant to the strat, which is rly cool, but, no matter what people say about the story and the characters, everytime count has to get himself together, is really touching to me.
Benjamin Kim I liked the story, but it’s nothing compared to the Unsung War. That game was on point with the story and characters.
That is true. AC8 will hopefully be a full return to form. After all 7 was abit of a rushed mess but damn did it come out well
They had like 1-2 years, I dont think it was rushed
@@pkemr4 they had to start over from scratch at some points, and it was a lot of pressure put into the devs, so it kinda did come out rushed in the end
It was quite rushed. Development of the game we have really started in late 2017. And while a year is pretty average for the modern industry Ace Combat has always had a longer development cycle.
I tend to use the PLSL on the SU-57. Though Mihaly can eat more light than a black hole.
I like how in real life a missile will basically destroy a fighter jet in one hit but this guy can take infinite missils
TugaAvenger, breaking scripts since... uh... since you started that AH Minimal DFM playthrough! Now that's efficiency!
Ah yes, flying the Gripen like a chad
I'm think Mister X is Cheating for Plot armor unlimited
You think? He is lol D:
This is absurdly useful :D specially for the 100% run I'm doing, thanks Tuga
Nice job! The Indigo Emblem on the Gripen is the mark of a true Ace!
Dimitri Heinreich...aka the Indigo Heroin
Vs
Mihaly A. Shilage
Too bad they didn't include the skins from the ACZ squadrons as well
@@stemmarb7r751 now they do ;p
Oh wow, I never knew you could do it this fast. This was honestly one of the longest, hardest fights for me which made me almost hate this mission. And that's a shame, cause I loved the Farbanti mission, both here and way back in AC4.
This should prove useful for those looking to get the 4 hour speed run medal.
That is what i am currently doing, and had the same thought.
The 4 hour speed run is possible without this method but the extra time does help I completed the run without this strat
It's not necessary for the under 4 hours but it would certainly make it fun. I just tried to cut my times for the early missions by as much as possible, really sped through them
If you speed run a ace combat game, you're playing it wrong.
@@snikerz5886 It's a great way to play though, racing to beat personal bests and getting the medal as well
I like how the battle over Farbanti you can down ever single one of his squad mates and they appear later on like nothing happened.
They all ejected. In the middle of the chaos, it makes sense they managed to quietly slip out of Farbanti.
@@TugaAvenger Mihaly also ejected when you destroy his X-02S. Proof? Mihaly makes it to the ending cutscene of the game. If the explosion sound makes you think he died, then maybe Mihaly is so good of an ace that he probably perfectly timed his eject. Maybe right when the plane skimmed the grass. Or maybe he didn't eject & the X-02S had a tub of titanium like an A-10, protecting him from the crash.
Gripen E is bae. I frikken love the LACM’s, like UGBLs on sticks. And of course the missile spam of the 6AAMs or the chip damage of the SASM
Very helpful and appreciated. Even though I already completed the speed and gun runs, it will still help with getting the S Rank on other difficulties. Just finished the No Damage run today.
1:09 I couldn't help but imagine this being said by Cpt. Price.
Omg I heard it too.
This is actually helpful, I found my own way (just trying to have a good position 24/7 in the fight) but that takes 2 minutes more.
Thank you man!
Well done and for Easy diffulty I ended up downing Sol 5 but for Yellow 13s flight instructor Mihaly had to use QAAM this was using the F/A-18F. Therefore finishing the mission around 30 min.
This mission was so fun to get the Whoa Man medal. I did it on Ace and I was pleased to know the EML is still 1 shot on Sol.
Smooth flying, Fox.
TugaAvenger : Fuck your plot armor; "Work around the script"
Kotaku/IGN "Games Journalist": THIS GAME NEEDS A VERY VERY EASY MODE
Nicely done!
Awesome video, can't wait to get home and try it out!
Noice! We need this. Good job on the video!
Eruseans have caught on...
@@thorn_ike8903 With all of this plot armor around, we still need something against the Belkan wizardry these days...
Jesus, Counts character development was strong in this mission
I know I've said this over DMs, but I feel like in general AC7 has the best gameplay-story integration of any of the Kono produced ACs. I feel like, Faceless Soldier aside, its rare to be in positions of having literally nothing to do, and the game is pretty good at recognizing player activities; like the radio callouts will sometimes be completely ommitted if you move fast enough.

Thanks for posting
This is speedrun material, noice
That moment, when the mission Ends and the music also ends perfectly, even though you aren't timing
great video. nice flying
We need more PSVR content
great video! :D
Ace Combat 04 was pretty fun. One of my old child hood games
I did this mission on my second playthrough of the Campaign mode and the game crashed because Mister X can't
God bless you for this...
Lol dude I hit him over 20 times in that mission before he even got to flight lead.
alternatively if you're using the falken you can drop an FAEB on Mr X while he's flying between the buildings. one should be enough to damage him sufficiently to trigger the end of the mission.
This is great but It could be possible to get better results if we used the MGP on the Mig 21bis? Gonna try testing it out myself
Thank you so much! It worked!
The more I look at this video, the more I see how much control I lack while "focusing" (however it is called, holding triangle button on Dualshocks) on a target. Grew on AC2 and flying with D-pad so I don't even know if that exist in AC2 but in any case, never used it. Same with AC3. Never really needed it, not even now but it's a skill I want to master because Ace Combat >>> everything.
"X gonna give it to you."
Oooh gotta try this
wow dude, under 4 minutes!
it took me almost 6 minutes to beat this phase
I thought he was gonna launch an airstrike on the one from resident evil using clips from Damnation.
Are we just gonna ingnore that plane spinning out at the end
This Su-30SM had to be modified so that it would be more resistant to damage and hits with missiles. Add artificial intelligence with sensors in the place of the radar operator and weapons.
I love this fight so much, most of my videos are this, just in different planes lol
Hmm Cool . So when are we gonna get updates for Replay mode being more accessible , and more Multiplayer things ?
I just waited till he turned and flew toward me.
I think i hit him in the ballpark of 20 missiles and 5-6 railgun hits in my 4th run, I was p pissed off
i wish i could have a plot armor like this
What I did was loaded up an F22 with QAAM and buff the Sp with quicker turn and higher loadout amount. Like you said I just shoot some MSL first to kick start the script. Then, QAAM the way out :) It's a totally noob friendly strategy since buffed QAAM doesn't take much skills.
Thanks for this video !!! Such great help!
I did something that broke the mission which i have to restart to checkpoint
Somehow, if you kill all Sol squadron except Mr.X as soon as they arrive, the mission stuck with a single ai jet against Mr.X while the others are in pursuit but later they just fly above randomly
You can destroy them using any jets that have long range insta kill weapon such as EML or Lasers and kill them when they are near altogether at the right moment
Or you can use cheats
Even with nukes,mister x plot armor cant be destroyed
So to put everything simple:
Hit Mr. X once right away, once after "ok he bit the bait", and once after Count & Huxian's dialogue is over, use all other time to engage SOL?
Yes.
This actually worked.
Spoiler alert but not sorry, I found out that when others and Count say you can take on Mr. X is when you are done.
No need to continue, just wait for the screen to stutter and you're good.
Also, I liked your video. Happy 1K likes. ;3
Man thank you for this. That fight always ruins an otherwise fun mission for me.
Would you know if there's similar stuff going on in Lost Kingdom?
Nothing other than that Wit and Seymour are scripted not to die. Also, no plot armor to protect Mihaly this time, just extreme X-02 maneuverability.
@@strider117aldo9 i considered that maneuverability as plot armor (I personally believe that some move is part of the plot armor). but it is my most replay mission of AC7
playing along with script dive into the story and dialogue. try different plane and manuever step. heart pumping everytime do Jousting in last phase (like AC0)
@@epzilonblue what about that EML charging up? One hit and ur dead, right? THAT is heartpumping.
Speaking of movements as plot armor, look up Sol's predecessor, Yellow Squadron. The Yellows were highly maneuverable to the point of being nigh-impossible to hit in their first appearance, a better disguise to their plot armor. Ironic, since Mihaly is Yellow Squad's instructor (AAW 2019). I mean, I know that Sol's first encounter is in a stormy valley, but still.
Nope, final fight with Mihaly is still scripted. Can't kill him until he says his felled all aces line, pretty sure.
@@StrikerMk2491 maybe he's just so sturdy.
quick question: how do i perform high g turns while using the Thrustmaster 16000M????
The best plane to use the super hornet the Su 33 flanker
I just use the Railgun tbh one or two shots against Sol Squad. Then 3 to 4 on Mr X and the job is done yes takes longer but tbh its a bit more epic and aggressive
Mine glitched and X smacked into a building when he first went into the buildings, the building collapsed and everything so I was like "THATS HOW HE DIES??"
When you have a lazer beam that can one shot - and then, there's this guy....
Useful for a 4:00:00 run
Happy electronic noises
Now, if only we could do this with Ass horizon...
i hate how you can absolutely destroy the arsenal bird and all of it's weapons with an adf 11 raven in the first few missions but when you do that it literally does nothing and the arsenal bird just regenerates somehow
I thought you found a way to *actually destroy his Su-30* but uh, I see him still flying.
Anyway, good shooting out there.
""
- AWACS Long Caster
Hit him with around 12 missiles maybe more and didn't realise it was plot armor 😂
I regret watching this vid cause now I just feel stupid ... all that time trying to take him down before the story progresses lol
Hot take, the Yellows were just another way how AC4>AC7. The Yellows were heavily scripted, specially the first time you met them in lifeline and you were forced to flee or fail the mission, but for most of the time you just had to hit them once or twice and they would disappear. Much like in AC5, here we have to wait for the dialogue and it feels like being stuck in a cutscene.
These fight can get very sweaty on the higher difficulty because Mr x can one shot you without even having to lock you in especially the last fight at the shillage castle.
yeah I accidentally shot down mihaly really fast
as soon as Wiseman was shot down I hit mihaly once with a normal missile and the whole satalite thing started
How does ttrigger and mister X have enough armor to survive about 20 missiles but still go at mach 2 and higher
Strike wyvern with railgun vs strike wyvern with railgun
Do you think it is possible to cheese EMLs to hit him down to minimal plot armor before you and/or he has to start getting into a turning fight?
Do you know if his spawn location is fixed, if so, then lining up EML shots shouldn't be overly difficult.
I think it is technically possible because someone reported doing it... with cheats, firing 100 EML per second. The plot armor is finite, but well beyond what we can do.
@@TugaAvenger Worth an experiment without cheats?
I just used the SU-57 and used the special lazer on all of them
I wish they had the game were it was a little more opened gives the games a little more replay value
But what would happen to 20 minutes of cinematics establishing your nemesis as a character if you accidentally shoot him down at mission 3? (or 7 since he's there in 3 but you cant target him)
Plot armor is nothing to Gripen
Mister X is the closest we’re gonna get to Trigger vs Trigger
0:36 how can you turn like that?
Sol's roll? You can't, the AI can pull some crazy stuff we can't.
Cam you prevent mr x from destroying allied units in the water or on the ground. I like saving the units
Well, if you hit him quick he won't have much time to.
Mister X : something something, I'm edgy as fuck
Trigger : plot armour this you dusty old coot
I wish they let us save wiseman
It takes the multiplayer parts to take em down especially mister x.
Cooool
>this amount of conversation in life-or-death situations
To be honest it just looks like you keep hitting the missile button until the game lets you hit him. Which I’m fairly certain is what most people do.
Like the captions said they "THINK" the plot armor wears off when Count gets his shit together. They were probably firing before that because they simply didn't know, but this pretty much proves it. I guess you could say why not make a video showing that without all the missle firing but that'd be extra work for a very niche group of people who care.
In which case "The Best Way To Take On Mister X" is to shoot him down when the game lets you. This is isn't the best way, it's the only way. Very illuminating.
3:16 hit him with the railgun right there and he didnt die
I killed the sol squadron in 60 sec and the rest of the time me vs X MF doesn't want to die
Wait how do you lock your camera on the the plane you're targeting
Hold triangle/the change target button
Man i dogfought him for the whole timer thinking that the game was tricking me goddamnit
The only reason why mister x is good at dogfighting is his SU-30 with QAAM which makes it SOOOO much easier to hit anything with.
