Chopper never got to see Razgriz also.

Funny thing is that Bartlett never acknowledged his death. When Razgriz were escorting him, he somehow knew Swordsman took Chopper's place.

Oof

[@oboeshoesgames]

Great job as always. The Sea Goblin parts made me imagine a Megalith video where it cuts between Mobius 1 and the infiltration team. "We'll get those panels open! Don't let those pilots die!"

[@Nassault]

That's a great idea. Only issue would be creating the exterior of megalith. I'm sure in time it could be done, as when started doing these I didn't even imagine incorporating ground unit shots, and here I am lol

[@lukasi.v4269]

​@@Nassault check the Astartes fan mini-movies. There's corridors in the ship that looks nice and they could serve as megalith's corridors perfectly . The ship interior designs in general also looks cool. I think it's a nice source of inspiration for you but take it with a grain of salt as I don't know what kind of aesthetics you're aiming for. Also awesome video as always. You captured the cinematic feeling of this very underrated mission and music. Just plain awesome dude.

[@jenningscurd6393]

Absolutely stunning. I love seeing the ground battle as well, wish we had more cutscenes like this in the game. Petition for Nassault to be hired by Project Aces!

[@007999999999999999]

My dream Ace Combat is: 1. Vietnam era onwards kind of planes 2. A setting for more realistic flight model kinda like war thunder (where energy retention and actual maneuvers matter more) 3. More serious characters and less "anime kids" that talk and behave in a childish way (Ace Combat 7) 4. Nassault making the cut scenes.

[@Tank50us]

I wonder if they used ArmA for that bit, the Animations certainly looked like something out of ArmA

[@vantave9946]

+Jonathon Davonger Pretty sure it was GTA since Nassault’s some other stuff in GTA irc

[@Nassault]

@@Tank50us The ground units were indeed it was a modded version of GTAV, with custom units with custom skins. I use the native trainer to create multiple units and then bind them with various animations to create the scene, It was also lit up and green-screened using Menyoo for a few of the shots. Also modded were the weapons they are carrying to add the real world M4. If I film something in GTAV, I always try to mod it so much it becomes its own thing, and id discernible from GTAV, and a lot of times I create custom textures for existing mods just for a film. That way, without the sight of a usual character, car, location or weapon we always see in game, other than to those few with a very sharp eye and are accustomed to the Euphoria Engine's look and feel, it is hard to tell. In the Shelf Nunny music video, I actually went into the North Yankton files and made everything but fences and a few bushes totally transparent so it was a barren snowy landscape with roads, and from there added in a ton of custom map objects to construct Iceland. I figured hardly any movie we see is actually filmed in its real world location, so why not apply that same suspense of realism into machinima production and make unique sets for unseen shots.

[@lukasi.v4269]

@@Tank50us "I wonder if they used ArmA for that bit, the Animations certainly looked like something out of ArmA " Nassault is the only guy I know who's capable of making GTA V looks like Arma III. I also thought it was Arma III at first glance. How wrong I was haha!

[@GGE]

The soundtracks from these games were always straight heat.

[@lukasi.v4269]

Sure. It's a sort of russian orchestration with brass (fitting for Yuktobania) mixed with a bit of Vivaldi's Winter strings, electronic beats and a cold glockenspiel and it's so nice. My favorite winter theme. It's also a rearrangement for AC4s Emancipation which is pretty cool, nostalgic and gives an unique feeling to this mission.

[@WhiskeyZF]

Hol up, Gregor plays Ace Combat?

[@nicoferguson1215]

Yeah, the soundtracks for the three ps2 Ace Combat games were/are incredible, and should be industry standards

[@MarchARBSpotters]

Indeed. I'd say this is the best song in the series. Personally, atleast.

If the next video isn't Nagase capping some of the pursuing patrols armed only with her Beretta M9 so we get the full combo of air and ground animation; we are done son! -Awesome video and thank you for continuing to pay homage to Ace Combat.

[@corvus9359]

I guess the challenge will be getting a high-quality character model of Nagase, or at least one that looks like her.

[@AvarikVonNom]

Giving some love to the wingmen I see and especially Grim, he deserves it since he's trying really hard. Way to go once more, Nassault. C:

[@Nassault]

Thanks Avarik! ! That reminds me, after playing 4 back in the before time, I remember that feeling when your wingman actually taking an order and blowing someone up for the first time blew my little child mind of 2005. Hope you are well :--)

[@AvarikVonNom]

Those were certainly some amazing times back then, look how far we have all progressed since then. And I am well, thanks! I hope you are too, buddy. :D

@@Nassault Take care! We're all together in this! Keep on painting nostalgic smiles on our faces :).

[@Cobra1098]

I know Ace Combat 04 seems to be most AC fans' favorite of the series, but Ace Combat 5: The Unsung War was the first AC game I ever got, first as a PS2 demo disk and then the full game about a year later. I've since become a big history/war nerd and The Belkan War is probably my overall favorite now, but AC5 will always have a special place in my heart. I just remember how much I loved the characters and the story felt like this huge, global war where the fate of the world hung on the shoulders of just five or six people. Considering how many missions AC5 had (I feel like it may have had the most missions of any AC game, although I could be wrong) I was so glad to see you adapt Ice Cage, hopefully you'll return to AC5 in the future. Also, have you ever considered adapting any missions from AC6: Fires of Liberation? The campaign wasn't nearly as long and there weren't as many planes, but I still think the story was decent. It seems like nowadays, most AC fans are sleeping on AC6. Regardless of whether you do more AC content or something different, like Gypsy 202 or Nuclear Option, keep up the great work!

[@jjhh320]

This was phenomal work! I love how perfectly integrated the chatter is; it was iconic for the team. Plus, seeing the way they work together drew me into it because it wasn't just Blaze killing things, which is the only perspective of the game. Archer showed some skill and competency you hardly get to notice while playing the game.

[@badmoth242xl3]

The two dislikes are from the two yukes they shot down

[@bonjourdy]

I count five. I think the rest are the soldier who got injured because getting shot by allied marines at POW

[@ChrisGuzmanS]

those dirty yukes

[@Sturmovik1946]

The Ace Combat 5 video that's been waiting all these years! Fantastic! Seeing this in the feed was super hype. Also hearing the OG AC5 sounds mixed in with DCS is super amazing

[@theColeHardTruth]

This is arguably one of the points in the story where Kei's character undergoes the most change. Even though she physically survived in the game, a part of her never truly returned to the sky after operation Blackhaul. Whether or not he meant to, Nassault showed that metaphorically by having her go down with the plane here. The sound of her plane breaking apart at 4:56 gives me chills.

[@choppergunner8650]

Well, yeah, seeing how much she almost died (considering her absolute devotion as Blaze's wingman and her promise to "never lose another flight lead"), I guess that small film of Bartlett saying "Nagase, you keep flying like that, and you'll die real soon!" passed by her head after she ejected. She really tried out her best to become a better wingman after the incident.

[@nilkuan4199]

Use of Tacview is really well done - consistently amazing, never ceases to make my skin crawl!

[@irongeneral7861]

I love the added detail of their weapons officers, and it's also interesting how they appear to be higher ranks than the pilots of Wardog Squadron... I guess the higherups all wanted a chance to fly with Wardog... Neat!

[@doppurr]

The cinematography of this is amazing! So many minor details just make this absolutely beautiful!

If you ever do a video for AC7's Rescue, know this: *Tomcat *Three Strikes in three missile trails in front of the lighthouse while engaging UAV's

[@CsStrez]

Trigger's canon aircraft is the F-16C tho, at least for his time as Mage 2. He gets the F-15C at some point before mission 7 while with 444.

[@stormiestcampfire]

I always do F-14 for Rescue though. It just seems right to do a homage to Razgriz (plus LAAM is killer in this mission). And swept wings are awesome, especially when you ascend parallel to the elevator shaft to chase a drone and you see the wings sweep back in replay.
