Twinfinite Interview: twinfinite.net/2019/09/ace-co... - Hry
Before someone crucifies me, yes...I spelt licensing wrong. Major typo, thanks quarantine. Lemme know your thoughts!
ACX would already be enough for me...
AC04 and ACZ...hmm IF they make it.
What if they put the same planes as in AC7/8
nobofy will miss the A-10A if we have the C, and nobody will miss the F-1 i think.
They could reuse a lot of stuff, like they did in AC7 with the F-117 in M12. (For those who dont know: they reused player models from ACAH for the enemy F-117s)
I personally would be fine if they remove some planes. Idk how it is exactly with the licenses, but can't they use one license for 2 games?
Like they have the F-22, so cant they put this model/etc into 2 differemt games?
So my personal idea would be:
Same aircraft as in 7/8 and all Original Planes which X had.
I'm personally waiting for the customization from AH, but i think the licensing would be Expensive as hell. So we dont know and this is my idea. Who knows what we'll get. But i honestly would like if they fix some minor stuff in 7, like the canards which move the wrong way. Ik the 37 would move the canards in a cobra like that, but the S.-Wyvern moves the right way.
Here is my question. If they put 4, 5, and zero into one game and the license the aircraft, could they count as just one license for all the games? For example, the f15. If they license it, would that count as a license for all the games if they were to be in one game that contains 4, 5, and zero?
More than likely yes, because they’re selling 3 games as one. I think that’s why making a “collectors edition” of the holy trinity would be a smart move.
@@activace
Hmm...
What if they make Zero, but put 5 and 04 in.
It will be one game.
The PS4 can handle it and the PS5 will handle it either way.
The question is:
What would be more likely and logical?
A HD Remaster like AC5 on PS4
Or a remake based on (for example) Infinity's engine?
I'd say remaster and I'd personally be 100% fine with it. I mean Cmon. AC04 with encreased Distance of sight and without the ps2 blur....
Would be beautiful AF....
Imagine for Ace Combat 8, the pre-order bonus is AC4. Lmfao
- Minuano - That’s a HUGE pipe-dream of mine!
I wish it'd come with zero
I'm preordering 8 instantly.
@@activace (7 Months old but) AC7 Deluxe comes with a remastered AC5 on PS4 Sooooo also it's on sale
@@CRMSN_RDR Which was my biggest reason for pre ordering 7
Ace Combat 3 gets a remaster/remake in real-time, releasing in 2040.
L O L
That would be like ace combat but with planes from the 50s and maybe 60s
In the before the world actually makes a R-101 Delphinus
@@Edo_Ginting and as you've said that, a Lockmart engineer has started drawing it
The whole thing about licensing makes an AC3 remake more valuable to the company because of the number of fictional aircraft it contains compared to the others
Upgrade it to AC7 graphics and rework some of the places (Waiapolo mountains for example)
And we got ourselves an Ace combat remake
Captain Plague Waiapolo mountain stays un-snowed because my guess is that many years later (after all of the previous wars and shit), the ice melts and WM turns into a normal looking mountain with grass fields below it.
Its kind of a mixed bag because you also have the regular real planes, its just that they are "slightly" different because they are supposed to be the upgraded futuristic versions
The another problem is that theg have to pay the request fee to production I.G for remake, which might cost the same cost to remake one of 4, 5 and zero.
Technically, all the aircraft are fictional. Some of the _airframes_ are real, but the actual aircraft are all either cool stuff PA came up with, or fictional variants.
I just want to hear “Yo buddy...still alive?” That’s all. It doesn’t have to be the remake. It just needs to be in a future game. To bring back Pixy in a future story is my dream for Ace Combat.
I'd love to see Solo Wing Pixy return. Crazy to think he'd be 52 during the events of Ace Combat 7.
I glad you care that much
@@bigballzmcdrawz2921 I’m not too old yet
Bring back chopper
@@bigballzmcdrawz2921 Still younger than Mihaly so there is absolutely no problem with strapping him to a nuclear plane at that age for Ace Combat 8
They could change the name of the planes to circumvent the licensing. In AC04, the Rafale is called the R-M01.
Always looked like R-mol to me lol
But isn’t that a prototype Name ?
@@mrandrossguy9871 no, the prototype name of the Rafale was the Rafale A.
I think jet fighter manufacturers will hate about it since they have a strong relationships with PA since ac4
Couldn't they just add them as dlc for 7 and keep the licensing?
I think Project Wingman also did this, right?
Damn the cost. The one game most deserving of a remake is Ace Combat 3, with the international re-release retaining the story elements of the original Japanese release. A plus is that Ace Combat 3's aircraft selection is far less grounded in reality, with a greater ratio of fictional-to-nonfictional aircraft that would lead to far less severe licensing costs with aircraft manufacturers. What Namco Bandai needs to understand is that the main reason AC3 didn't live up to their expectations in terms of profit from sales is because of how neutered the international release was, with barely any story and substance to it, and a vast majority of its mission branches cut out in favor of a single linear and inflexible plotline. Give those of us outside Japan the full game, with a more modern engine and pristine graphics. Many of us will be scrambling to buy it, I guarantee this.
The Big E Would really love to see Ace Combat 3, or any old game really comeback to life in HD. I do agree that having a greater amount of fictional over non-fictional aircraft would help reduce costs. But, the content itself would take a ridiculous amount of time: i.e. cutscenes, voice acting, special effects, multiple endings, etc. Ace Combat 7 wasn’t even that immersive, and yet, it took so damn long to drop. But hey, I’d love to stay hopeful and see something different on the table for once! I could definitely see them pulling a twist in the future ;) stay hopeful king!
The Big E I’d love to see an AC3 remake, but unfortunately, I doubt it would happen. As said in the video, it would cost more than a remake of AC4, 5, and 0 combined. Also, Japanese fans hated the game. Bandai Namco also doesn’t really do much with AC anymore and people just don’t like flight sims. I’m not trying to disagree, because AC3 is my favorite game of them all.
@@PolarisStar5 wtf why did japanese fans hated it? Out of all ace games that one seemed to be by far the most interesting one.
Gustavo Sanches it wasn’t linear like AC2, but yea, AC3 is by far the best in my opinion
Gustavo Sanches so thats why they didn’t like it

mR andross guy I would kill to have those games on Xbox because the only two main line Ace Combat games on Xbox have been Ace Combat 6 and Ace Combat 7.
Great work, the licensing issue is pretty much the only reason for me, but remaking a game also has the huge risk of displeasing older fans. I disagree with 3 being the hardest to remake though, what they spent on acquiring the licenses for planes would be mostly saved in that game, and they could put that money into manpower. I think they just don't wanna touch anything that far into the future anymore.
Licensing trouble, huh? If only there was an Ace Combat game where almost every aircraft was an original design they didn’t need licensing for.
WAIT
"Imagine a psp game remade with the ps5 engine"
-FF7 Crisis Core remastered announced this year-
Dude predicted this over 2 years ago lol. He even put an image of FF7 when he said it lmao.
As much as it sucks if we do not get a remaster of the holy trinity (which for me also includes X and 6) I still can play them through emulation anyways. So it's not a total loss IMO.
As far as aircraft licensing is concerned. They could do what Project Wingman has done and give the real life aircraft fictional names. I would be fine with that.
As long as I can play the "emulated" games in my living room on the Big Screen with multiple controllers yeah it's fine with me
We could at least get a "HD legacy collection" like Metal Gear Solid got. Doesn't need to be updated.
At that point they'd just do a remaster, they'd still have to pay for the licensing
Option 1: They can make remakes of the holly trinity, changing a few aspects of the story, and changing some of the aircrafts in order to avoid some of the license costs, however, they would have to expend money at the long run, since they will have to bring up the old voice actors, or hire new ones, PA is a small game developer, and..... *sigh* it pains me to say it, but Ace combat is a niche franchise that only a portion of the whole gaming comunity plays, so is not like they have a big revenue. HOWEVER! the gamble of expend money and resources on those remakes could make them gain some good profit, since theres new people coming in to the franchise thanks to AC 7 and wants to know more about Strangreal and their stories.
Option 2: They can make Re-masters of the holly trinity, but not just a simple HD port thing, i mean, making a full upgrade to the graphics using the Unreal engine, plus recreating some of the cutscenes (maybe not in AC Zero) a good example of how to make a remaster, is how the Coalition developed Gears of War Ultimate Edition, the game literally looks brand new, while just being the same as the original one, the only issue is that they will have to pay for the licenses of the aircrafts portrait in those games, find someone competent enought to make a good job and not some crappy HD thing, and also pay the voice actors since their voices are going to be used again.
One way or another... it's expensive... i guess this is the reason of why Project Wingman decided to make copies of the real life aircrafts in order to avoid those licenses -w-
I think jet fighter manufacturers will hate about it since they have a strong relationships with PA since ac4
I am sad that Ace combat is not more widely known. Yes It probably could not compete with a franchise like Mario or Call of Duty, but it is an excellent game. I understand why it is not widely known as its only a specific type of game, and it is more challenging than a game like Mario, but Ace Combat deserves better. The Music is top tier, the game looks amazing, especially 7, the Story is incredible (mostly), and it is super unique. it doesn't even have any real competitors, the only one being Project Wingman, but that itself is loved by Ace Combat, and it was made by Ace Combat fans, not a company trying to compete. overall Ace combat deserves more attention, and I hope it will achieve even more sucess
This is depressing because I wanna see what it feels like to play ace combat zero on my PS3
"Did Belka do nothing wrong?"
Nice.
I'd be perfectly satisfied with ports like AC5. I mean sure it be amazing to have the AC7 level detail but I feel after that game I would rather the next title to come sooner. Would be neat to go back in time, or play as Belka 🤷♂️
Yeah, just give us like split screen or campaign co-op.
It's Licensing bro ..
L I C E N S I N G , haha ,
but thanks for the information !
Sigh quarantine has bit me back I see. THANK YOU LOL
Who could do it?
Sector D-2 games.
The engine is top. Avoiding copyright is something they've already done. Proving their skills? The three-man team may as well be Project Aces 2. Give them talent, and they'll make it shine.
If PA isn't working on anything, joint development would likely produce exactly what we're all interested, in the best possible form.
Man it really sucks that kiscensing issues are gonna hold these masterpieces back
I really miss my f20 tigershark and punk rock
Next video: Top ten shitty Ace combat like games on the AppStore lol
Ahahaha, but seriously keep your eyes peeled. Might have to👀
I would kill for an AC3 remaster, but personally I’m just hoping the next game to come out will start to tie into the storyline of ac3 (and preferably also release before 2040 lol)
I just don´t care about having three Tornado variants, make 25-30 licenses and put the same planes in the three games. Problem solved.
They could choose some of the core planes that the 3 games have, and then full on fanservice with the fictional aircrafts, from all the AC games
Licenses can be expensive quick, especially when you're a smaller company like Project Ace with a niche community
To be honest, I would love an ACX remake like those from the RE franchise. Imagine an entire overhaul of how the game works, from the campaign selection system to the gimmicks of SWBM shockwaves to optical camo. God how the game deserves it
As for the holy trinity, just a simple one like the MW series is fine. Core gameplay there, just a few aesthetic changes and of course in HD.
I would love to see a full 30 mission ACX combining both the storylines of Falco and Gryphus
Looks like I might have to step in and become a multi millionaire so I can fund the remakes of 4, 5 and Zero and possibly also extend the licensing for the other games
Arosch_
Please make the handheld titles as remakes too adding them related to the main holy 3 titles so we can expand the strangereal universe
@@M0A0R0k00W0Y0L0D0E Will do
*gofundme begins*
Same here if I ever have the money I'm doing it
I don't understand, for the life of me, how remaking Ace Combat 3 is more expensive than remaking 4, 5, and Zero when licensing seems to be the big issue here. ACE3 features mostly fictional variants of real-life aircraft with names that are not even real variants and more original aircraft than any other game in this franchise so licensing is out of the question. Cutscenes, VA, music, and others? Well, you'd have to remake those for AC04, AC5, and ACZ as well ON TOP of the licensing. I mean, they got licensing for more aircraft than ever with Infinity, even going as far as getting the license for the Tornado.
In my opinion, that contradiction just means they simply don't want to touch ACE3 even with 10 feet pole, perhaps they perceive it to be too "out there" as if we were in 1999 still; yes, the concepts ACE3 explored might have been too ahead of its time but the concept of sublimation, internet taking over and corporatocracy all over entertainment right now, especially in videogames. AC2 sold even fewer copies than ACE3 and they still remade it. It's a matter of willingness to do it, not bureaucracy, money, or time.
ace combat 3 is a failure because it was too Japanese centric... basically it was a contemporary social economical issue that effected japan since the 90s and to even today. i doubt it would be a successful title for other countries
They have pay request fee to production I.G for remake, which will costs a lot.
Nice video, keep it up man!
Thank ya boyo :]]]]
With AC8 or any remaster could they do what project wingman did and just give the planes "different" designations or is it obviously too late and too odd to make such a move.
Either way it's a hope but the series always had a place in my gaming history, especially AC6🤘🏽
The thing with the 'Holy Trinity' is that... the master copies _went up like kindling_ a long while back, meaning that they have to start _from scratch_ for a remake.
You heard that right.
Basically, the same problem prevents Gearbox from remaking Homeworld Cataclysm/Emergence. Outside of the audio masters (the creators of Homeworld had one company do the audio work and they kept their own copy of the masters, meaning that Cata's audio work is available), everything else is _gone_ and hanging out with Elvis and Hoffa.
Ace Combat 4 has one of the best soundtracks of any game, the missions are good, gameplay solid. But I went back and tried to play recently... the graphics are ROUGH... Ace Combat 5 with a PvP mode would be EPIC
*crying* YOU TAKE THAT BACK
Hey, could I get a link to that picture at 1:33? Can’t seem to find it. 😅
There could be fan made remakes that might actually be really good, but it would take so long with 1 person, if a big group of people got together, they could maby make a really good remake, but it would not be offical, idk but that sounds pretty good if no one is going to make offical ones.
When they remodel the planes for remastering purposes, why not "simplify" the interior of the planes and give slight changes to the general look. That may solve copyright issues .. Many 1st person shooters do it, they have a pistol model that looks like a desert eagle but name it differently.
Just a thought, it may be a breaking of codex for a lot of people, but I am sad that the old games vanished, I only have the 7th title left to play and it is good but not my fav
Yeah, like how Project wingman did
@@rookie693 true!

How though? I agree I would like to see it again!
@@activace from what i know
The japan version of the game have a lot more content than the world wide version and is
In my opinion better
Other than the Trinity I would love to see AC6 gets ported to PC and PS4 as well, the chance is close to 0 but one can hope
I think Electrosphere has a decent chance of getting a remake, or at least a soft reboot, considering how close we are on the timeline.
Idea: to every New dlc comes a "preorder" Bonus with ace combat 4 and ace combat Zero
I grew up to this cuz of my dad it will always hold a speck place in my heart
Ace combat 4 and zero where the only ones I played but didn't finished it. If it was remade or at least remastered I would buy straight away
We don't need Ace combat 3 electrosphere remake... WE DEMAND IT!
Yeah I would love some remakes......and if they did remake them, plot fill content and "cannon" story patches would be a great way to catch up to AC7 and set the background for AC8.
0:55 We already know this just let us dream ;_;
The problem with the licensing argument is that it kind of falls apart when you consider one thing: the existence of Project Wingman. Project Wingman has all the same planes as the Ace Combat games (except of course the fictional ones) but the three-man team behind that game never got sued by Lockheed-Martin or any of the other companies after releasing their game. This is because the likeness of a plane isn't copyrightable, only its name and schematics. The Planes in PW all have different names from their real-life equivalents.
So all Project Aces would have to do is change the names of the planes in those games and remove all references to their real-world counterparts in the descriptions, and there wouldn't be any issue. The fact that the games haven't been remade means the issue lies somewhere else, likely in the amount of work they'd have to do to remake the games. Going off of how long it took before AC7 came out and how it got delayed twice, I assume it's a combination of corporate meddling from Bandai Namco, and just plain bad management of team resources in Project Aces.
My thought is that if the Holy Trinity comes back, it'll be as full remakes, not remasters, in the case of planes that can't or won't be licensed by their owning companies, and likely modernize the levels (i.e. compare Mission 12 of AC04 with the mission from Infinity it inspired and tell me just that gap in their in-house development doesn't leave 04 Stonehenge looking anemic).
Now with this in mind, any resources put into a full redevelopment of 04, 5 and Zero is going to basically be equal to a development cycle of a new game.
Normal Ace Combat fans: I wanna see the PS2 games remade.
Me, an intellectual: Ace Combat 3 with modern mechanics
Shame, we most likely won't see any remakes :(
That's why I have a backwards compatible PS3 that can play PS2 physical disc. Just need an mClassic HDMI converter for hopefully better image clean up though I mainly want a mClassic for my original Xbox. Still have my PS2 copies of these games. Not saying a backwards compatible PS3 is most reliable system but it is great to have.
Would going Project Wingmans route be enough
Renaming the jets?
One way to remake a game is be inspired from a fan-made game while the devs behind it: listens to every detail they can put up with. Like how resident evil 2 remake was made. Also how a top gun maverick movie was successfully made. It's Great movie by the way.
I'd rather have a legacy collection on steam, more so than an actual remake. Kinda like how capcom treats megaman nowadays.
100000%
Ace combat assault horizon my favorite just cause of that first mission, it showed me how sick the f22 was and how awesome the fighter jets are
They just need to remaster and HD ace combat from 1-zero and release it as a full price item. They'll get their money back and then some. They have the code already just need to re render everything using 7s engine.
7:21... Bro Stop Right there, Galm 1 gonna visiting you with his F15C Eagle XD (Joking)
Well, my Ace Combat Collection of my dreams is not an HD remastered Collection like N.Sane Trilogy or Reignited Trilogy, but something like the Kirby's Dream Collection, you can play *6* Ace Combat games which are: Air Combat, Ace Combat 2, Ace Combat 3 (maybe it will be finally localized in english or other languages, maybe), Ace Combat 4, Ace Combat 5 and Ace Combat Zero.
Then there are extras such as interviews with the developers, original artworks and a place where you can listen the OST of all 6 games of the collection.
Then there's an extra game, which is like the New Challenge Mode from Kirby's Dream Collection, but it celebrates the franchise's Anniversary.
It would be great if for ACE Combat 8 they would consider adding a mission editor for offline and online, multiplayer only has for dogfight and no team missions of bombing targets or scrambles. At least for PC it would be great.
What about Bluepoint? The studio that remastered Shadow of the Colossus for the PS4

Aren't AC3 remaking gonna be cheaper in case of fully fictional vehicle-park?
+ COFFIN-interface is the way to not draw cockpits.
For me I'm not in favour of a remake of any of the holy trinity or 6. The storylines are so well known amongst fans. The gameplay is well balanced and to me it would spoil the "magic" of the original games. The graphics of the PS2 games certainly would benefit from getting "cleaned up" as evidenced by 5's port on to the PS4 which vastly improved the graphics. 6's graphics stand up well, so IMO don't need touched at all.
I always think that remakes don't tend to be improvments on the original, unless the original version is really poor, which IMO the aforementioned certainly aren't.
Remakes would also cause more confusion to what was canon and even now there is confusion over what is canon and what is not.
To conclude, IMO leave the 4,5,0 and 6 alone. As for X, I wouldn't be against a kind of remake to take away some of the rougher edges of the game.
And I've just realised how long this comment is! I really got on my soapbox there!😋
Remaking ACX would be INSANE. I’d love to see the final battle in HD. The campaign was perfectly done, and I really had no complaints. I think licensing hurts Project Aces in the end when they’re thinking of making any game in the series (unfortunately). The idea of not remaking the holy trinity is very fair! I think they’re perfectly done & should be left as it. There are games that could’ve, would’ve, should’ve done this & that. Those are the games in the series that need to have a second look. Great points, I actually love the long comments like these!!
I would like a remake of the first and extend to other platforms the existing one of the second since it is a part of the story that I think should be made more known (ace combat 1 and 2)
@@activace i wanna see an Inverted Gleipnir again lol *physik*
The reality is they'd basically need to rebuild everything from scratch other than VOs if the original WAVs are around. Although AC7 did well, it was primarily due to releasing in Jan after the massive xmas sales wars. It's misleading as it was a big fish in a small pond.
They would have to project it to be profitable, but from what we know it seems the juice isn't worth the squeeze.
Good point there. They could do two things: completely rebuild the game (like you said) from the bottom up, or port it with updated textures. This wouldn’t be a remake, but hey it’s something...I think they’d be able to project their sales based off of the AC5 pre-order bonus to see where the demand falls in line. It might be a little more than usual now. AC7 introduced a bunch of people to the series. We’ll just have to wait & see!
7:15 would love to see them all remade on gamemaker studio and blender
I also Really despise the fact of Canceling dlc Content !
Modern Video games are Cursed or Plagued with DLc stuff which is not Apart of Base Game so ultimately are compromised if companies (like you said) can’t renew licensing 😵😭😡 so Basically the Game is losing Half of its Completion? And that’s No Good
Reminds me of when I purchased Gravity Rush 2 and some the bonus items were no longer available because it's online service shutdown a few years before I bought the game. *sigh*
Очень хотелось бы, а пока приходится на эмуляторах гонять, когда захочется поностальгировать
I do love Ace combat X
The first ace combat I played though was AC 4 but I was too young to remeber it.... I have the disk tho
But Ace combat X.... I kept playing it on my psp and I love its soundtrack
Namco: AC3's sales were too low, so we're not remaking it because it would be too much money spent on a game that didn't do well.
Well maybe if you didn't cut like 90% of the original content for the non japanese version...
Its such a shame, as I really want to play the Holy Trinity, but don't have acess to a PS2 or 3, nor a PC to emulate it on. Plus getting the games will be a hassle all on its own.
Why not just give all planes different names like Project wingman does?
i'd be happy if they brought ace combat 4:distant thunder and ace combat 5: squadron leader to pc for me those 2 were the best 2 games in the franchise . it's just sad to not e able to play them anymore

I'd volunteer with Project Aces. I have some idea of 3d modeling using blender, only problem is, I have no official educated degree in modeling. I would love to help out our favorite gaming developers with ideas and the development of Ace Combat. They're going to need all the help they can get. I'd say to Kono, "As a fan, I would like to volunteer with your team in the development of the Ace Combat series to increase the man power you need, you don't even have to pay me."
Hears about ace combat coming to phone.
Vader: VAT!!!
I wonder what will now happen two years later, since last year Bandai Namco ACES was founded and merged PA and the them behind the PSP games... Aircraft, Ship and Platform Modelling could surely be outsourced, other than the fictional stuff, like the ADF series, Alicorn, Arkbird and co.
I just hope Bamco ACES won't be tasked with Gundam and such.
I believe the next Ace Combat won't take as long as 7, unless they want to include Infinity Style Co-Op.
Who is going to maket it? Project wingman team???
Well thank fucking god I preordered the game to have AC5. If i'd known it wasn't going to come with Ac7 after release then I'd have to hunt for a copy. Though I seem to have lost my Zero copy as well...
I messed up because I figured they’d put it on the PS-Store for everyone after the game dropped. I’m so sad because I’ll never get to have AC5 on my PS4!
@@activace Yeah, same when I pre ordered it I was sort of scared like "Will I get it? How do I know I got it?"
That sort of deal.
Og games are always perfect and fun but it's up to the devs whether they have the resource and manpower to remake them
These are very rational reasons. It is very sad to see licensing and other bureaucratic things hindering the remaster of those main ac games. Fortunately we have emulators to help us play almost all Ace Combat games.
My bet is that they will launch some remaster after the next sequel (Ace 8 or something). They have already achieved excellent sales with Ace 7, if they continue with this level of quality, they definitely will get better and better results
Agreed, I say give AC8 another pre-order bonus & see where the fan-base lies. From there, they’ll be able to make a hard decision of whatever or not they should bring Ace Combat ____ back. I think we’re getting to the right steps...we are slowly but surely getting the sales on track!
There’s another reason: the master copies were destroyed in a fire. PA would have to start from scratch, at least for most of the Holy Trinity.
I wouldn't want to see a remake of any AC game! They were all great games that brought me hours of fun and excitement. But aside from the nostalgia factor, they have little to offer. I would much rather play AC8.
I remember the first time I played AC4. In mission 7, the Stonehenge began firing at the group and I had to traverse down a ravine to escape certain death. The reverse countdown of the AWACS sent a chill down my spine, and when I saw the Stonehenge blast, I gasped loudly at its sheer might. The visuals coupled with the soundtrack and the difficulty of flying a plane through a ravine at low altitudes joined forces to create a truly unique experience. I couldn't be happier when that mission ended. Or when I first saw the intro to mission 18. In less than thirty seconds, the game managed to make my jaw drop.
When I played AC5 for the first time, I was really happy with it, thinking it was just another war story. Then I began to question certain things. Some things did not make sense. And then the game made the giant revelation that both countries had been fooled into waging a terrible war. The reveal itself was worth the purchase. The fact that both sides realized how wrong they'd been and worked together to combat the greater threat always brought a smile to my lips.
In ACZ, I fought and fought and fought until I reached mission 12. And then, halfway through the mission, *BELKA DID EVERYTHING WRONG*. That single moment was extremely powerful. Missions 15 and onwards were perfect, and the game did an excellent job of conveying the desperation of the allied forces and the sheer joy of victory as the game (as well as the chaos of war) ended.
None of that can be repeated. In a remake, I'm going to expect all of that. Aside from minor updates to graphics, overall gameplay and controls, the remakes can't bring much to the table. The magic of the holy trinity cannot be repeated.
And even if I were to let that slide, I'd still prefer for the lore to expand. I don't want my second favorite game series (the first being Dark Souls) to get stuck in a rut. New conflicts, new characters, new messages (or improved means of conveying those messages), lore expansion, just to name a few natural benefits of creating a brand new game. A remake simply cannot compete.
Well, I still want to shoot down Pixy in 8K...
2:27 ''Rumors Rumors Rumors this is what happens when you don't have communications''
Even if it happens it would streamed via iCloud or something, the game is so much for ARM GPUs
However, in the 5th anniversary, Namco announced that it will be in the switch I don't know how are they going to do it but there you go
Ace combat games were defined by when they were made remastering any of them would be disgracing a masterpiece that being said I think re-release would be fun I've seen footage of the first couple of games but I don't old computer or a PlayStation and when I buy old stuff sometimes it doesn't work so I very much want a release on modern consoles perhaps on steam
man If we could just have 5 but with the flight mechanics and graphics of 7, that would be amazing. 7 was good but felt like a watererd down retelling of 5, kinda like how SW the force awakens was to a new hope, with some familiiar characters, setting and other elements for that nostalgia factor, but not a whole lotta substance beyond that. in 5 you had a huge number of planes to choose from and a wide variety of missions to use them in, with wingmen that were not only competent enough to survive and kill things on their own, but also highly memorable. when Kei "edge" nagase got shot down at the end of a mission and we had to mount a search and rescue mission, I cared, and was overjoyed when sea goblin finally found her. when Alvin H. "chopper" Davenport went down in the stadium, I was saddened by it. and when I saw the USS kestrel sink below waves as the captain watched us fly toward the capital for one final operation as he hummed "journey's end", I cared. I never cared about any of my wingmen or supporting characters from 7, didnt help that most of them were killed off after only one mission, even count, who was the only one to survive the game and first to start singing praise about me, wasnt all that likable, and still felt useless. 7 had way fewer planes with no ability choose which ones my wingmen flew, less mission variety with no branching lines that changed what missions you did according to certain choices you'd made, and overall the story felt like it had way less at stake toward the end of it. it's a real shame the remaster/port of 5 that was bundled with 7 was only for the playstation version like the VR missions, and were left out of the steam pc release. guess i'll have to settle for an emulator if I want to play 5 again and dont wanna dust off my old fat ps2 and physical disk version.
Dose anyone have ace combat 5 link downloaded for pc
licenses doesn't apply on fictionnal crafts huh? Then ACe 3 might cost less in terms of licensing as EVERY craft is fictionnal, or at least original modified versions of existing planes, it's only problem is that it's a huge game that would take too much time to work on T_T
SkyWolf 0 Exactly, the content itself would suck up costs & time. But hey, let’s stay hopeful! We may never know what kind of corners Bandai will cut for us :)
Ace Combat 4 would be sick remade.
I mean, Comona with 7's engine? Oof.
Also it'd be fun for them, Since Ace 4 is the most action oriented and they can really push multiplayer again if they want.
Ace Combat 5 and 0 I'd LOOOOVE, but, I really don't think they will do it justice. I don't even think Project Aces can handle that at this point.
I need a Unsung War remake
With the new PSplus... imagine Ace Comabt holy trinity and X begin ported
I want to see Zero get a remaster, just to see the nuke scene in HD.
It is hard and sad to know that the holy trinity might not get that HD release, but on the bright side no HD chopper death.
Sigh, I bet they’d make it super detailed too. Can’t imagine having to cry AGAIN.
@@activace But if they did remake them, the mission Zero would be CRAZY.
So buddy...still alive?
@@razgriz16 The Solar Facility in AC04 and Stonehenge Destructio with it STN shots is something im dreaming off
@@acewyvern3489 I hsve been dreaming of the burst missles from ACO5, and the solg.
AC3 is the one the most deserving of a remake. It's the most unique game in the series, and is so much different from the rest that it's remake can just be called AC8 and everyone would be fine with that.
It even has a small number of licensed planes, with a huge chunk of crafts in the game being fictional.
I think jet fighter manufacturers will hate about it because they have had a strong relationships with PA since ac4
Maybe we can expect the sequel of ac3(killing dision for real)?
Im so glad i got my ps2 working for i was too poor to oreorder ac7 to get the 5 port. Made me so sad
:( if I was able to give one away I would😭
