Ace Combat X: Skies of Deception - Mission 15A: End of Deception I

[@KoalGames360]

4:49 Makes a lot more sense after the events of Ace Combat 7

[@nethascotx24]

Oh my goodness, I never noticed

[@georgedeane2564]

It's interesting you say that, because AC7/lighthouse war takes place in late 2019 and this takes place in 2020 (lore timeline) The realisations came to me after I replayed X after 7, and oh boy it changes the perspective of the entire campaign. Deep level lore

@@georgedeane2564 it’s just crazy how far in advanced they might have planned that line like wtf

Ah yeah, since Aurelia is Southern Osea

@@georgedeane2564 And yet they mess up lore of AC 4 that its war was between Erusia and Osea

Let's head home... to Aurelia.... (planes form the southern cross)

god its been close to 10 years but i still remember everything from this mission... so much fun from a PSP game

1:59 Windows Xp makes a cameo in ace combat!

[@TugaAvenger]

Easy to forget ACX will be 11 years old next week. Vista wasn't even out yet!

[@AL3X2580]

I always found this one Incredibly more challenging than end of deception II. I thought keeping alect squadron away from fenrir would make it easier for me lmao

[@TugaAvenger]

Honestly, you're the first I hear saying that. EoD2 is generally considered much more difficult.

[@AL3X2580]

TugaAvenger huh interesting, even though alect squadron aren't flying Fenrir I always found their sporadic optical camouflage and having to maintain a certain speed to avoid that super weapon frustrating. Where as for me at least in end of deception 2 where you destroy that shield generator/transmitter on the island fenrir looses its advantage, I just use QAAMS to take them out or other highly manoeuvrable air to air missiles

[@calamitousenigma9052]

As I have now played both variants, I would like to claim that EoD1 is harder because of Fenrir's permanent camouflage and stealth constantly ruining locks as well as the need to maintain a high speed due to the HPM. Another point is that in this variant, Fenrir's stealth cannot be disabled. On Ace, Alect are a pushover and die as soon as you unlock that transmitter and blow it up, unlike those filthy cheaters with stealth and cloaking and HPMs in EoD1. The tunnel flight is definitely harder than blowing up the joke that is the Shock Cannon, however.

[@fergosan2009]

I wished there were 6 Fenrirs to fight the whole Alect Squadron tbh

[@alexanderisupovakastwaffen1194]

@@fergosan2009 in EoD2 were 5 Fenrirs and one was on the stadium in the capital of Leasath

Argentina being Invaded by Venezuela...

[@nostrodelaantares8416]

@@das81 exactly, for crying out loud, the Argentinian acrobatic squadron is called Southern Cross, Aurelia is pretty much Argentina mixed with Australia and they speak French.

7:50 Is... is that Fenrir flying underground?

[@TugaAvenger]

Classic Ace Combat. Does happen often in this mission.

[@arya0794]

thanks to that i keep dying when playing this mission

[@clausesanta5042]

Aurellian War in 2020 is supposed to be ended by now, I believe. Because it's Christmas.

[@applesandgrapesfordinner4626]

Almost every war on Ace Combat ends on a Christmas

[@mrandrossguy9871]

Personally Ace Zero should of Played like this With the Near Perfect Balance of Ace04&05 Physics. I still am Bewildered by the Decisions the Devs have made with Flight models in these games and why they keep going Back and Forth with Super Arcade and Down to Earth Flight/movement Physics 🧐😩

[@mineko2219]

Because AC is all about arcade? You seriously don’t know that realistic physics would lead everyone to instant rage when turning a plane.

[@novasahrul5071]

Yes the physics ace x pretty good

[@branislavradojevic7898]

3:11 yup

[@alexanderisupovakastwaffen1194]

This mission is harder than any 5 missions from AC7

[@novasahrul5071]

Aannnd that is true

[@Kicklash]

I've decided that Aurelia is Strangereal Australia.

[@gustavomartins3763]

the dogfights were way to hard for me in vis mission , i had to fly away from them and use da special weapons to blow all the main targets at once as they only run and run. a really good scrub tatic heh

[@nguyen.tien.phat1310]

this mission is freaking hard even on normal difficulty. those Fenrir just keep cloaking all the time. they only decloak for like 3 or 4 seconds then cloak again. not to mention when i'm tracking 1 Fenrir, another one will shoot me from behind. Especially when there are only 2 left. they will take turn to cloak and decloak again. Litterally took me almost half an hour just to kill 2 of them. Shit, i hate jamming radar and cloaking planes missions.

[@true_neutral3378]

People keep saying this mission is hard, idk, it was pretty easy with a Tornado F3 and SAAMs. I was playing on normal though

[@PaulNat360]

lately i have been spending hours trying to finish the final mission(s) with the f-5

[@scottthewaterwarrior]

Trying to beat this on Ace right now, and get the shortest route medal, and do it on an actual PSP system! The way you are maneuvering, I am guessing your are using an emulator and aren't restricted to using that little analogue nub!

[@cheapgaming3252]

i think the fenrirs are UAVs

[@TugaAvenger]

I don't think so. They are piloted by the Alect Squadron in 15B, and perform better there, so in 15A they're probably piloted by inferior pilots.

[@cheapgaming3252]

oh ok it would be cool if they are UAVs

[@TugaAvenger]

Well, it's not impossible. The RAVEN in AC7 can be both manned and unmanned.
