Ace Combat 5 (Emulated) - M27+: The Unsung War

- Ace Combat 5's final mission is a good display of everything people love about it. Aside from the overcast weather, this mission is absolutely beautiful from every aesthetic point of view. The music, the dialogue, the rising sun, the SOLG diving down to earth - and the task at hand itself. It's downright gorgeous. It's not a mission to rival Megalith or Zero, no, and it falters much in the same way the rest of the game goes - but I don't need to say that again. It plays to both its weaknesses and its strengths - The Unsung War is the perfect ending for an imperfect game.
Of course, it feels even more barren after we've seen ACI's SOLG, but the same can be said for any mission remade in ACI - it really did a good job of humbling the PS2's games in terms of scale, if only to lock their take behind a paywall and forced multiplayer. But wouldn't you like to see those as Ace of Aces missions for any classic game :)
PS: The Tomcat doesn't fit. I tried. - Hry
Reuploaded without the credits. The credits contained Blurry, and a copyright claim on it restricted the video from being watched in some mobile devices. I knew it was being monetized by them, but hadn't noticed the viewing restriction. I won't stand for that - I'm fine with them getting the dollar this video might make in ads, but I won't have them hurt my viewers. But I should have realized it before the video went live. For that, my apologies.
can i ask what emulator setting that you use for this game, cause mine not so smooth as you bro
I wonder what would had happen to those Belkan squadrons if before engaging wardog they suddenly heard a Spanish guitar playing and saw Galm one? That pride thing would have dissolve quickly
"We will restore the pride we had fifteen years ago! We will herald the SOLG's descent! We will - we're sure he's gone, right? Right. - We will restore Belka!"
Every Belkan is all gangsta until Galm 1 shows up
*The real Razgriz has arrived*
That would've been so epic, i can already imagine, Cipher would hold off Grabacr and Ofnir alone and tell the Razgriz to go after the SOLG
@@AidenPearce19 >
Grabacr : we will restore pride we had 15 years ago!!!
Galm 1 : Excuse me what??
Grabacr : *leave combat airspace
their pride had shattered the moment belka sold its lands to neighbouring countries
@@EricWulfe they didnt sold lands , you are fooled by the osean documentary
Grabacr and Ofnir: I would like to apologize
Belka Pilots: "holy sh*t, it's the Demon Lord of the Round Table! Everyone watch your six!"
"This is Oka Nieba to the Razgriz, there's an aircraft approaching fast. Don't worry, this is gonna be hostile but not with you."
*SPANISH GUITAR INTENSIFIES*
There's bad endings
There's good endings
There's epic endings
There's beautifull endings
But ace combat 5, has the most beautiful ending that i ever saw, worthy to cry, danm, i wanted to play all ace combat games to have the felling of a true ace combat fan
This is how you make a grown man cry...play "Fifteen Years Ago" and "The Unsung War."
The Journey Home (radio edition)?
You can actually end this almost instantly. There's a small gap in the rear of the SOLG just big enough for a plane. Fly inside and hit the core directly, the mission instantly ends in success
I'm sure many knows that. But it requires insane precision to pull off.
It became mandatory in the special mission on Ace Combat Infinity but it's much, much, MUCH bigger there so the margin of error became a lot bigger and it's easier to do.
In AC5 however, the margin of error is very slim and if you so much as miss the angle even slightly, you end up crashing before you reach the core.
However it's possible, just very difficult.
@@rinnychor Sounds like a skill issue to me. Insane precision my ass, it’s not difficult at all unless you suck at the game.
That's what I always did. But man its been a while and this brought back mad memories!
kindda sad that this came out before Zero, would nice to hear references about Demon Lord or any other Belkan aces. Grabacr being Belkan aces should've had a run, witness or at least hear about the Demon Lord.
no but Zero was set in a period of time before AC5 tho. In ACZ, the Grabacr leader Ashley did shot down Heartbreakone in mission Mayhem. Pops was also shot down and thus explain how Barlett and Pops met. so its possible that grabacr ace did face the Demon Lord
@@bachphan5584 he was saying that the game came out before ACZ not when the plot take place
This is why we need a proper remaster of this game to fix some plot and story lines
@@jevonjoyeau7110 especially renaming locations, like Stier Castle to Waldreich, and add some lines on Closure mentioning demon lord already destroyed this mine
"Razgris, we wish you the best of luck. *Launch!"*
I felt kind of cold the first time i heard that...
Along with "Your final sortie. It's almost kinda sad, huh."
It was very sad. This great journey, this wonderful game, was coming to it's end.
Say if Cipher were to show up here it would go like this
In the middle of the dogfight between the Belkans and the Razgriz Oka Nieba spotted something on radar.
AWACS Oka Nieba: 《New contact on radar a single unknown fighter》
Grimm :《Who could that be?》
"Insert spanish guitars"
The ADFX-02 Morgan flys right into view firing off its TLS which vaporizes a Ofnir fighter before it banks to the left and downs a another one with its missiles. The Morgan was painted in a tinted silver with blue wing tips and that emblem looks familiar.
Nagase:《Identify yourself》
Cipher : 《Who I am is not important. I guess I'm not the only demon in this world》
Then the realization hits Swordsman of who the pilot was. He had heard stories about a legendary mercenady pilot who shot down all of Belka's top aces and the name ringed in his head like a bell.
Snow:《Demon Lord...》
Grabacr Leader: 《WHAT!?》
Ofnir Squadron:《The... the demon lord!?》
Ofnir Leader: 《Impossible! He disappered along time ago!》
Cipher continued to fire missiles this time firing at the lead Ofnir's plane but he missed.
Ofnir Leader: 《All planes! Focus your fire on the Demon Lord!!》
All Belkan fighters turned to engage Cipher. Grimm and Snow wanted to help but then Cipher spoke again on the radio.
Cipher: 《No Razgriz! Get to the SOLG, I shall handle these warmongers》
Grimm :《Bu..》
Cipher: 《NO! This is for the fate of the world. Plus if there is anyone who can keep the Belkan's attention its me. Now go!!》
AWACs Oka Nieba: 《Two minutes》
He was right they had to get to the SOLG fast.
Blaze :《Roger. Razgriz on me!》
As the Razgriz left the engagement to get to the SOLG it was just The Demon Lord of the Round Table against the double Belkan formation.
Grabacr Leader: 《Time for you to die!!》
Ofnir Leader : 《We shall restore our country's glory and smite the Demon Lord once and for all!》
Cipher was not amused what so ever. Since the Belkan war he had nothing to fear as anything the Belkans could throw at him and he would shoot it down. But then he remembered something... it feels like he's back at Avalon Dam again in 1995. A voice called to him asking that some question from along ago.
Pixy: 《So, have you found a reason to fight yet... Buddy?》
Cipher simply smiled to himself he knew what Pixy mean't by that.
Cipher:《I do...》
"Insert Zero from the soundtrack"
5:11 is the best line in the game. In context, the aaagh is probably him dying. Out of context, he sounds like he wants to be a ghost. Always gets a laugh out of me
What a perfect way to end the game. Everything stacked against you and still you win.
god i want infinity to come back with a campaign that revisits the aces of all ace games.
"red wing tip? Oh, no!"
"so you're the one that buddy spoke so highly of, let's put you to the test"
"this is shamrock, garuda 1, let's put this rookie to the test. Cmon! let's dance with the angels!"
"This new guy is a demon! Blaze, stay sharp. Razgriz will cover you!"
"Can you hear me? Just stick with Trigger and you'll make it! Strider squadron engage"
"Mobius team en route. Mobius 1, are you ready for this?"
plot twist: you're playing as a belkan ace that knocks all these guys out of the sky
Too bad Mobius is a literal God. But what about Nemo or Phoenix? Gryphus 1?
@@GalaxyStandard77 He got shot down by Cipher, tbh, in the "Gauntlet"
@@pixythegunner uncanonical
@@GalaxyStandard77 also nemo would probably kill everyone if the Intercorporate War ends with Nemo possessing the XR900 Geopelia in reality besides simulation
@@SleepyPopups.Uneditedthere is a word that the english version of AC3 actually takes place right after the simulation in AC3 Japanese Version - now you're a human pilot and your enemy could be Nemo ( my own POV ) with a different name ( AI name is actually Aurora ) in place of Desion using that aircraft - U4000 something i forgot.
In case if my information is unreliable - you can check it out from multiple resources about both games.
So basicaly the antagonists in this game instead of using some sort of Sci-fi prototype super aircraft, they are actually using real world prototype fighter jets, being the S-32 the prototype version of the Su-47 and the Mig 1.44 piloted by Hamilton which it was supposed to be the next gen fighters jets for russian, funny thing is, both aircrafts never went into mass production in real life, i think they are now been used as test platforms for new equipment, and they where replaced by the new Su-57 previously known as the PAK FA T-50.
Ace Combat does also have its fair share of Fantasy planes. Most notably the CFA44 Nosferatu, the X02 Wyvern, the ADFX-01 Morgan and the ADF-01 Falken.
My guess would be during this time Osea doesn't really have a Fictional Super Plane. The ADF-01 according to gameplay are in pieces yet to be assemble. Where as the the only other ADF-01 in existence was destroyed by Scarface 1. X-02 is a Erusean made plane, and the CFA-44 Nosferatu, is either still in developement or doesn't exist yet. And the ADFX-01 is probably defuncted or scrapped.
@@pokeng actually the Morgan was still around as late as 2020, according to the lore
How it started: "Belka is the strongest military on Earth"
How it's going: "Belka is the 3rd-strongest military in Belka"
Ace Combat 7 set in 2020, run parallel with Ace Combat X, and will include elements from Ace Combat 04 and 5. First AC7 trailer featured a piano piece of "The Unsung War".
That too.
I think I know people who consider Solg underwhelming, but I think the idea of having essentially aircraft platfoming as the final challenge fits well in the Ace Combat final mission context.
Two eagles soar past the Tomcats as they charge towards the Belkan squadron
Good old copyright issues, they can be one heck of a pain.
And thus, another AC game ends, with a perfect finish, in theory!
Final showdown with the rival squadron, epic music, superweapon fight... Except the squadron is laughably easy and the superweapon fight is more of a test of your ability to evade debris, but at least, it's still somewhat challenging, and there's the option of flying in if you have a small plane.
But still, it perfectly embodies the theme of the game, your squadron alone versus the final remnant of Belka's military might, and I have to give it credit for that.
Sorry for making you type that again :P
Hah! Thanks, but no need to worry, the previous video was just unlisted, so I went through my history and copy-pasted the comment from there to here, I'm lazy, but ressourceful. :D
Nice. I left it unlisted for now in case anyone was still loading it - I got a couple of friends with slow internet that leave videos buffering before watching.
How thoughtful of you, I'll be sure to remember that kind of stuff. :)
Aim down the solg barrel with the TLS
13:31
"Peace has once again spread across the world"
Erusia: *I'm gonna do what's called a pro gamer move*
Oh! And fun fact. An earlier flight sim (1999) basically had the SOLG fight in it before the SOLG was even a thing. I swear this is true. Airforce Delta on the Dreamcast. Mission 14. Look it up. The satellite even looks nearly identical to the SOLG!
As I'm going on about Airforce Delta, that series is fucking _weird._ The first game is relatively straight laced (And a kind of blatant rip off of Ace Combat 2... Though it's still fun in its own right).
The second game (Called Airforce Delta Storm, on the Xbox... Yes, really) was a bit weirder, with a lot of weird playable planes.
Airforce Delta Strike (the third game, PS2) could most accurately be described as Ace Combat's demented younger brother. The very first level has you shooting down gigantic flying UFO space bombers, and the plot eventually becomes _Aliens were behind the war!_ It's absolutely fucking insane and I kind of adore it despite some of its... Flaws.
Did I mention this series was made by Konami? Back when you could say their name without a "Fuc" in the beginning of it, mind you. And yes, a Japanese developer made a game for the fucking _Xbox._
I have never noticed that. The satellite really is just a smaller, faster version of the SOLG.
10:38
I'll just say this,
EXPLOSION!
Megumin is Belkan, you heard it here first
Always played this mission back to back as a kid. Always a very cinematic game for its time, surprised though they never adapted an anime from it.
I never noticed until now the Tomcat in this game deploys the glove vanes that got deactivated shortly after the plane's introduction for being too maintenance intensive. They were supposed to provide additional maneuvering capability at the top of its speed range.
They also discovered that they didn’t need the glove vanes, which is why the F-14D doesn’t have them
Shivers everything I hear them talking bring back so many memories. I finally downloaded the emulator just to play this game again
Like any Asian dead, my father never liked me playing games that much.
But he saw me playing AC5. And he saw/heard to the end of the game.
He made a comment.
"Hey, that game's really like a movie, isn't it?"
*Ensign Grimm: Captain!, Lieutenant Nagase: “Blaze!”, Captain Snow: “Blaze.”, Wardog/Razgriiz 1: “Engage the enemy at will!”. Roger: “Archer”Engaging, Roger “Edge” Engaging, Roger “Swordsman” Engaging.*
And to think, next year is when the records of every Belkan Conflict is supposed to be released. Ace Combat 7 DLC perhaps? Only next year will tell.
Wow, really bringing back memories here!
2:21 when you hit NO, they all go "uuuugggggghhhhhhhh"
XD
Is it me or the bridge at 1:30 looks awfully resembles Yokohama Bay bridge in Japan, I mean, even the makeshift runway kinda reminds me of Wangan Midnight's
You know Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune?? Namco also made that. Probably that's why the bridge resembled it
Turbolover 86 when you can't beat the Devil Z, use a jet fighter. Who knows it might work
@@ixm2unvrz 😅😅 I'm not probably really sure if Akio he will be get rekt from losing a race with a fighter jet.but race with a Devil Z against a fighter jet.isn't to much enough m8??🤔🤔
I built the SOLG in KSP, complete with a functional shooting cannon. I added decouplers everywhere so it can make it fall apart. I did that all day, pretending to be disassembling it mid-air with an nonexistent plane. I don't know why was it so fun. perhaps I missed AC?
I'm still convinced that the kid at the end of the scene before the credits is blaze and nagasei kid.
She definitely had the hots for him this whole time - Even I knew
@@Phantom_Of_FuryEven the squadron's status as being spirits of Razgriz is more mysterious compared to Nagase's feelings for Blaze.
This is my favorite game
>"The Unsung War"

I always likes using the MiG31 for this. It can target four aircraft at once and the little bit of dogfighting at about 4:00 can be done with two salvos in ten seconds.
The big mig is broken in this game though, at top speed its faster than the missiles. In the Ghosts of Razgriz mission you dont have to use the canyons you can just orbit at full burner and snipe the garbage.
"we will restore pride we had 15 years ago !"
*why do i hear spanish flamenco in the distance*
What are those little stabilizers that pop out at 2:13?
They're called glove vanes. They provide additional stability at supersonic speeds, deploying at over Mach 1.4. With them, the F-14A could pull 7.5 g at Mach 2. They were later disabled, and removed from the B and D models, due to their mechanical complexity, and avionics upgrades eliminated their need anyway.
TugaAvenger that is so freaking cool holy crap. How did you emulate the game?
I have a setup guide here: czcams.com/video/fv_zb9NLjEY/video.html
It's a bit outdated, but still valid. The main change is: if you have an nVidia card, use the OpenGL renderer instead of D3D11.
I just want to say on my own computer I thought this was an emulation glitch. I'm very pleasantly surprised to just find out it's actually not a glitch but incredible attention to detail
Snow is Champ from AC7 (I think)
For the credits maybe it would've been possible to replace Blurry with the Jazz Remix of Blue Skies from 5.
Curious, is there any extra dialogue if you destroy Grabacr/Ofnir earlier? I think I've only gotten up to Snow and Grimm talking about his brother coming home from Yuktobania.
I also kinda do like how Ofnir and Grabcr are contextualized as more annoyances than a Pixy style rival here; they sort of play the same role as the Megalith Yellows.
Soooo... ACAH PC next? I mean you never did it on the stream; and I'd be curious of your analysis of it like you did in the descriptions here.
Megalith Yellows are a far more enjoyable addition to their mission, though: "annoyance" is the right word here.
And nah, it'd offer nothing unique. I can't even used the DLC aircraft you get with the enhanced edition in campaign mode. I'd have more than enough to say about it, just not enough in the way of interesting video content to go along with it. If I could at least still pull off world records like I did on XBL (I think I still have the one for Blue on Blue), that'd be more than unique enough, but as silly as that might sound, I've lost my DFM skills, lol.
You could try a 'use DFM as little as possible' run to show how fundamentally broken and unfun the gameplay mechanics are when you strip out CRA. (And shows how impressive ACI was in somehow making ACI's engine fun to play even with its spine ripped out)
I guess to me, looking forward to AC7, and as bad as I do think ACAH is, I think it's an 'important' game in the evolution of the series and I think one Kono has to wrestle with in order to learn from its mistakes.
I'd need the Homing Missiles skill for it to be bearable, and that'd take eons to unlock again. Wasn't too bad with it, though - 6AAMing from miles away with that skill was an effective strategy in MP, I had to develop some tactics to avoid while engaged.
I do think it's something that hasn't been really shown before, though: Even if you try to minimize CRA usage, such that you can, it only serves to show how bad the planes feel to fly and how horseshit the missile and gun mechanics are.
It shows that it wasn't merely the inclusion of CRA that was the problem but the whole-scale abandonment of caring about the actual act of, you know, flying a plane.
I remember I've done this mission in Ace difficulty on the Falken, it's ridiculous how easy it is using the TLS. I destroyed the SOLG in just a few seconds. That laser makes things look ridiculous 🤣🤣🤣
And AC5 comes to an end... With more AI "flying through the terrain" shenanigans. At least Grabofnir put up more of a fight than they do in their respective missions.
Also, Replicator. What the fuck? He doesn't actually attack you (I don't think)... He just flies around haphazardly.
I actually managed to destroy all five "targets" of the SOLG before. And it counted in the score. So that was neat!
So. AC5. "Neat concept, flawed execution - The Game". Definitely a mixed bag. I still have a soft spot for this game, but... I'm not afraid to point out the flaws. And flaws it has. Plenty of.
R.I.H Chopper ❤❤❤
The most beautiful mission in the entire series imo
Bruh, everyone is just chatting while blaze is destroying the solg
3:59: >
Their is no other piece of military hardware advanced enough to intercept a falling Satellite then a frickin FIGHTING JET!
YOU'RE WELCOME!
I never made it through the back half of the game, but I guess there's no working airstrips left in Oured? Were they destroyed during the events of Supercircus? 🤔
Why you set them to "cover"? There's no fighters when you attack the SOLG
Can anyone tell me what is the title on the piano piece after the dogfight but before the SOLG was in range?
15 years ago
3:24 Tomcat is such a pretty lady, isn't she?
Don't tell me they left the dog on the island
I just played this mission on the exact time and date the mission says, who else?
Hello! If you ever read this, I want to ask if you're familiar with the channel Gracemeria? it was a really old channel that upload AC5 walkthroughs. Sadly, I can't see his channel anymore as look it up on youtube. This dude was REALLY REALLY good no cap.
The name sounds familiar, I do vaguely recall such a channel, but no more than that sadly. Don't think I was ever subscribed.
@@TugaAvenger no thats fine. it's the reason why I got into ace combat, seeing his gameplay and all. now that Ive watched your gameplay, I realize we almost have the same skills! honestly thought i was the one playing in your videos lol
I wonder if the dog was secret angel
Damn... didn't get the full dialogue
They'll launch begin at dawn.
Hey, i know its an old video, but could you send your emulator settings?
Still got notifications for everything :)
I have an emulation guide here: czcams.com/video/H-z4rt3TRGA/video.html
I suggest you get the official 1.6 release, though. Some changes since that video but almost all still applies.
@@TugaAvenger nice, thank you
So they left the dog on Sand Island
4:48 Said the one who got QAAMed by a certain demon lord
Actually, I guess the next logical thing would be Arcade Mode. Probably just do a single playthrough though.
Do arcade mode before you complete your first playthrough if you want to unlock the F-22 early on in the campaign
#LongMarch5B is down by Razgriz Squadron!
Today is 31st december 2021!!!
Anyone have a book for the Belkan War?
Seem is similar situation at Ukraine right now
What SOLG means?
Strategic Orbital Linear Gun. In other words, a giant artillery piece aiming down at earth.
Is oka nieba is an arab?
*sigh* ... after playing alot of AC7 i had to re-visit the nostalgia, seeing your playlist of AC5 once again, and... after seeing this, comparing what PA was able to do with the other tittles... i can see that AC5 probabbly was their most ambitious game, but they end up bitting more than what they could chew, which it's a lesson that they learned, in AC Zero, the story feels more impactfull and complete with not much flaws in the end.
If i would have to improve this mission, i would split both Grabarc and Ofnir in two parts, been Ofnir the one who attacks Razgriz first nearby Oured, they could be leading a squadron of Grey Men forces, while their S-32s are using the same ECM type as the ones from Mimic Squadron, once they are shot down, the SOLG stage begins, which it will be the same SOLG from AC Infinity, this time, Grabarc shows up from behind with his squadron, as he is trying to shoot you down while you are taking out SOLG giving a tought fight for any experience gamer.
Let's pray to Kono and the Bandai Namcon executives for this to happen someday...
Ace Combat Infinity's SOLG was a hundred times better than this...
Interesting how, just like their legend of Razgriz, first you go to the capital city as a villain accused of war crimes, then you return as a hero to save it from the SOLG
