it's never too late to play Ace Combat!
Very true, broski
I just finished ace combat 7 so actually this review is perfectly timed, also instead of watching the netflix "adaptation" of all quiet watch the original one instead.
Shoot man I liked it
the new movie is really good, I'll die in that trench
@@jockel9502 it's fine, i just watched the original before the netflix version came out and really it should have been its own movie. it barely follows the plot of the original and the original is way better imo
I just learn from you that there is an ADAPTATION of one of my FAVORITE GAMES ?!
AC7 is under $10 today so I was looking at reviews. Yours was the best. Easy subscription.
Thanks bud. Working on more, slowly.
Also bought it today my self. I only played ace combat X on my PSP when I was a kid. My laptop can run ace combat 7 so will see how it goes!
Ace 7 is incredible. Imo, the GOAT of the series is still AC0 however.
Let's hope 8 isn't too far away!
Pretty sure theres been word the studio is working on another AC, tho it wasnt 8.
I think that the "trilogy" of AC4, AC5 and AC0 is the apex of the series. AC7 has some amazing graphics but but I was never impressed with the storyline.
@@NovicePCBuilder AC7s storyline may not have been PHENOMENAL like the ps2 trilogy, but it was still pretty darn good in it's own right, and it carries a message I agree wholeheartedly with, to paraphrase a quote from captain kirk: "Death, destruction, disease, horror, that's what war is all about. That's what makes it a thing to be avoided. Drones will make it neat and tidy, so neat and tidy, that there will be no reason to stop it."
That being said, Alex, the A.I. from the DLC missions is the antithesis of the twin ravens. And I think that as long as an A.I. remains loyal to humanity, they should be allowed to live their artificial lives, the trouble comes when you design an A.I. solely for military purposes, if a fully developed A.I. chooses to join the military, that's probably fine, but if a potentially sapient A.I. develops while being taught that it's sole purpose is to destroy the enemy, that will inevitably result in the A.I. being insane.
I got it just after Top Gun Maverick came out, and I'm still loving ❤️
YO!! Me too! I was riding the high of Top Gun Maverick and bought AC7 forthwith. I love this game.
As an veteran ace combat player, i approve this video. +1 subscribe. Keep it up man !
Friends convinced me to play it and I fell in love. I completely agree with the action, the music, the set piece and the jet... Excuse me what?!
Great video! Very to-the-point
AC7 is definitely a game that as a whole is greater than the sum of its parts. It's not Shakespeare, but boy does it sell you on being Trigger. Side characters are fun, the story is passable, but the gameplay loop and music hook you and don't let go. The aircraft tree and mission ranks ensure you have good replay value. You have to play the game at least five times to S every difficulty, then the time, guns, and damage challenges are another three if you didn't complete time and damage in one of the first five. Some missions aren't as fun on the tenth run as they were the first, but each suits the plot well and makes that first run so, so memorable. It remembers to be fun and it's refreshing to pick up a functional, finished product in an age where games are still broken years after launch or abandoned before cresting a single anniversary
It was my first introduction to the series, something that's now become a bit of an obsession for me in the last three years and I do think it suffers in some ways when compared to older franchise entries. Planes in the PlayStation trilogy handle exponentially better, missions in 6 are massive and varied, actually allowing for changes in play style to be rewarded. Overall though, still a great entry in the series that has brought in a new generation of fans who are now desperate for Ace Combat 8
I just finished AC7 after basically binging it for a weekend. First of the franchise I’ve played too.
I had a great time. For me the weakest point was the story, or at the least the off branching ones. I did find the conflict and world itself very interesting though. Needing to rethink how to handle certain missions was great , like the A-10 might not deserve a ton of love but god damn I couldn’t have beaten the Long Day for the first time without it!
I also didn’t even notice the music. The first missions music wasn’t great and it irked me that I could turn it down mid mission so I lowered it in the menu. I’ll have to go back and pay attention to it since I plan to play a bit more.
Funny that you reviewed it late and it worked out perfectly for me. Cheers.
This is really well put together, well done
Ace Combat 7 now has three of my top pieces of music ever. Hush at the top, my favorite piece of all-time, with Sol Squadron right below it, and Archange below it. The monastic men's chorus is G O D L Y
Hush is your favorite? Interesting choice, not a bad one at all.
Also something something sky speaking Latin
Sol 1's boss music is my boss music
I picked it up when it was $10 bucks, and recently finished it. What a steal!
Very fun game, and pretty challenging in higher difficulties too!
There's something about blowing stuff up from the sky that never gets old.
Will definitely check the rest of the franchise.
Ace combat was one of the very first games I played when I got my PS1. It was air combat at the time. All in all if I was training to be a pilot. I've accumulated thousands of flight hours, probably in the tens of thousands. From all the games combined.
I got a little excited when you mentioned NieR automata and also gave you some credibility haha. I actually did watch your Ending E video a while ago, so I thought your voice sounded familiar somehow. Lastly your points on music were good. Love 8 bit music theory and theory in general, so this video was lovely for me c:
Thanks man. It means a lot that you returned somehow, lol.
F18 and F35 enjoyer AND Magic Spear 1?
Take your like you handsome stud.
/blush/
as someone that owns every single game released( besides the arcade games) Ace combat 7 is a fantastic game. love the review
I picked up the game when it was on sale here recently, and I'm very glad I did. There's a nice wide range of aircraft, especially with DLC, so there's many good choices. I do somewhat like that each has it's own special weapons loadout, which kinda forces you to fly more than just one aircraft that you like, incentivizing attackers for heavy ground strike missions, etc. I do miss a few aircraft, the Tornado is an interesting aircraft that I see has been in past titles, but isn't here. I ended up running the 2nd SP mission alot, and loved using the Rafale, as it let me use LACMs to clear the ports and ships, while switching to AA for the mopup and boss, I wish it gave abit more of that option in other missions.
That's one of my only real quibbles, is that I can't take a better multirole loadout, LAAMs and 6AGM or something similar, letting me run some of the more mixed missions more easily. The standard missile does serve well enough as a filler weapon, letting you use it on ground targets when you take anti-air and vice versa, I just wish there were a better way to upgrade it in that case. The upgrade system is pretty great in most aspects, forcing you to make some choices and specialize in what will be useful, rather than upgrading everything across the board, but I wish you could have a separate tree that gave the standard missile permeant upgrades, or that you could use upgrades on guns and standard missiles separate from special weapons. I'm honestly shocked there doesn't seem to be a mod tweaking the upgrade system, allowing for more freedom in upgrades, I like playing through with the limitations for the campaign, but once I've completed that, I sometimes want to sortie in a horde mode style mission and go to town with a fun weapon, going all guns one run, or railgun, or whatever. I love that about Project Wingman, allowing for some of that freedom, and even more with mods.
Nice vid...im gonna try this game.
Awesome video dude.
Maverick Ultimate Edition currently available for £15 on PlayStation 😀 I think I'll pick it up! Thanks for your review, you deserve a lot more subscribers, top tier content in my opinion. Thanks for the video and you've gained yourself another subscriber 🙂
Great game and great video!
Man, I love this game so much. I would say though, if you have it on PC, do not play with keyboard and mouse. It feels super clunky, use a controller, or if you have one, a flight stick which is what I highly recommend. It is so much more fun that way.
As a ghetto individual, i like ace combat 7 bc when ppl find out im nasty at it they act shocked or surprised that i even play such games
Lol, I don't know if that's awesome or terrible. Pick whatever one you prefer
Honestly, even if youre not comfortable with them yet, give expert controls a shot.
This was my introduction to the series, I picked expert, and boy did my plane feel attracted to that ground.
I crashed A LOT, but mastering the controls was one of the most satisfying gaming experiences I've ever had.
It's the only way to be an ace pilot.
I hate you. 😂😂 jk.
Your video made it all the difference for AC7. Their DLC is on sale and I just spend $30 on all the aircrafts. On top of that? I bought me VKB NXT EVO Premium and STEC!! So i shall figure out how to fly baby!! GREAT VIDEO!! Itll be my first time playing it. I almost did with the thrustmaster, but the throttle and joystick connected together didnt made it fun for me. So such a long wait got me huge rewards. It pays off every time.
Have fun, dude!
I forgot to mention my lovely wife noticed how much this game means to me and she bought me the flight stick for this game. It truly adds another level of difficulty and I would highly suggest to give it a go. I perform much better with controller but the flight stick has its own je ne sais quoi.
I tried that before, and I think Ace Combat is just too arcade-y for a flight stick to work properly. I have an easier time using a stick in something like Elite: Dangerous or War Thunder.
Fleet Destruction is sooooooo replayable.
It's my most replayed mission, it's just stupid fun.
My concern is... 98 missiles? Wtf most airplanes has barely 6.
Just wait till you find out about the rail guns and flying aircraft carriers
shhh its just belkan witchcraft have you seen LASERS ON AIRPLANES? EVEN PULSE LASERS?! or OR ADMMs because Estovakian demoncraft
PLSL goes pew pew pew boom! 😅
(Most fun special wp. in the game, give it a try you won't regret it)
Did you ignore the “arcade game” part?
This is an ace combat game, it’s been the same since the start
might i sugest you also make a review on Ace Combat 3 the full translated version?
Not a bad idea at all. I'll put it on the idea list. Got some other stuff I'm working on first.
my guy if you like AC7 you NEED to play Project Wingman. I discovered the franchise through AC7 and tbh I think PW is even better. lacks on the story front, but more than makes up for it in control style, gameplay, and music. such a good game.
I have played it. It's on the list of video ideas, it'll probably happen eventually.
I get very absorbed by games. I will usually binge on one game until I beat it in its entirety, or until the dopamine runs out. When I completed AC7 on ACE mode I was sad because it was “over”. I have many many hours on AC7. It lived in my PS4 for months. It is still one of the only ps4 games I play on ps5. As I type this I’m loading it back up. I want to try multiplayer online on PS5. Hopefully it adds another element of challenge.
If you haven't yet, I highly recommend playing the previous games. They will feel very familiar.
i’ve had the game for about 2 months and i’ve put in 80 hours this game is rlly good ngl
I played AC7 when it came out and it was the most infuriating game I ever played. I love the series generally but had a very difficult time with this one. I think putting a timer on the missions is totally unnecessary and coupled with some really bad missions, like being in a sandstorm and having to locate key targets within the time limit, man it killed the fun stone dead. The final mission was difficult as well especially trying to angle the plane to the escape shaft. Funny thing though, once I completed it I liked to replay the final mission!
It's a trench run just like Megalith in AC4. Of course it's difficult when you don't know what to expect.
I’m honestly bummed the F117 never made it back from 6. Or the Tornado Gen 1-4, or even the Hawk from AC5 heck even the MiG 1.44
You can only get so many aircraft licensed, and the F117 is pretty old and outdated by now.
AC4 had a great story also😊
Very late, but very well done. Sub.
Thanks bud, appreciate it.
Have you checked out Project Wingman yet?
Of course. May do something on that later but currently no plans
Better get use to hearing the word Missile 1,000,000,000 times over. My god its still annoying. Not even repayable because of it. I always had to put the sound to mute.
I get that. I don't know if there's a mod to turn that off.
Now it's coming on nintendo switch
It feels kinda random but why not, I guess?
Ah yes, Switch players getting 5 yo games lol
Although, I'll make an exception for this one. Everybody should experience AC7 ;)
Is the multiplayer still active?
Dunno, maybe? I never got into the multiplayer because it always becomes a "who can turn faster" fight.
nah you're early
Damn Trigger, you right
What’s that plane at 4:02 ?
ASF-X Shinden II, it's a fictional DLC aircraft.
Ok, perfect.
Now do a video on why Project Wingman is better.
Gonna burst your bubble right now, I don't think PW is better.
@@PanmyxiaYT I wouldnt even compare those games.
I've sunk about 190 hours into project wingman and about 100 in ac7.
AC7 is quality wise the better product.
The product as a whole is just way more polished, there is no aruging there.
Less bugs, more story in like world and charaters, the music and a hell of a lot more beginner friendly.
What made me stick to PW instead of AC7 is just a way looser expirence.
There are no pauses or cutscences, missions are shorter and they just let you get away with dumb shit like 180 railgunning at mach 3 or throwing unguided bombs onto airships.
The pace overall is just faster.
I mean hell, with the pw mk1 i can run through the whole game in like 5 hours.
Tomcat might be abit slower, but still pretty fast.
They might both be arcade flight games, but imo they couldnt be more different.
I just more attracted to the madness and stupidity that is PW.
@@Tabisch hmmm, I dunno if I agree. My experience with PW was pretty smooth. In terms of design, it just feels like Ace Combat, which I'm pretty sure they were going for.
The physics in PW for sure is more robust. I don't actually know if it's possible to hit an enemy jet with an unguided bomb in AC7.
Also, while AC7 had the budget for an actual orchestra and PW didn't, Jose Pavli's composition still really shines. It's very distinct from what AC does but still hits the same feelings, I think, despite the overall quality being a bit lower.
what do u mean by ace combat not being known for story telling, look at 4!!!
I honestly didn't find 4's story to be all that engaging. I know some people are really into it, but 5 is really the only one I see taking the spotlight for story mostly.
@@PanmyxiaYT alright
I prefer AC 1 to 6.
Am I the only one who finds that even if you play the campaign in easy mode it stills very hard and annoying ?
What issues are you having?
@@PanmyxiaYT I wouldnt be surprised if it was faceless soldier or the near last 2 missions with the identify all targets before firing
I had better time with other titles. It´s full of flaws. There are a lot of new space games and all are better than this. But this kind of games attracts few buyers so we must be grateful that it exists. ??? Really? mmm...
I recommend Everspace 1 as a arcade full of action. I have the 2 but it changed to x4 type, that´s not for everyone
... It's not a space game though???
@@PanmyxiaYTproject wingman is a lot better made by 3 people! That says a lot
Space and aircraft game use to be similar in controls. You could choose a old Starlanzer or Freespace and are a lot more fun than this
@@chargerdiecast Just because something is made by a few people, doesn't automatically make it good; and don't forget that PW was inspired by Ace Combat in the first place.
And sure, some space games are similar in controls, but that doesn't necessarily mean they're similar overall. If that's more your thing, then go for it buddy, I just don't understand why you're here if you hate AC.
@@PanmyxiaYT I dont hate AC it just dissappoints. And PW is based on it but fist mission first target is killed by a wingman to make a statement against AC
@@chargerdiecast ... I don't understand your point. Why does it matter if the first target is destroyed by a wingman? AC has done that before. Also, are you sure that's even what happens? Because I remember PW's first mission differently. I always speed ahead and attack the patrol boats first.
Please use the button that makes the camera follow your selected target and get used to using it most of the time. I see way too many novice players never use it and it's just painful to watch when they could make dogfighting and tracking ground targets while turning so much easier for themselves. Even if you mod the game to widen the FOV, it's still extremely useful.
Even without a gamepad that has back buttons, multitasking with all four of the face buttons should be easy as long as you keep your thumb above all four buttons at once.
Also, please don't claim that ground attack aircraft are bad if you decide to use QAAM's on Cape Rainy when an F-35C with 8AGM's could clear out the ground much faster.
If you're making a case for attack aircraft, using a multirole aircraft as an example isn't a good start.
