[@Snowycaaa]

man. I remember like 15 years ago when I played AC2 on the PS1 when I was 6. And somewhere around 7-12 I remember playing AC 5 and Zero on the PS2. Loved those games. Thanks for making this video c:

[@TheRibbonRed]

Even though 6 does suck story and content wise, the big scale battles does bring a fresh take on the series--something AC7 tries to re-do on some missions. Shame that you couldn't add it in with ACX, but eh. Also appreciate the lack of Joint Assault, Cross Rumble, Assault Horizon, and Infinity lol.

[@Nassault]

Absolutely. As mentioned below, I played the demo of AC6 at my old pal Vinny's house and it was unforgettable. ACX is also an absolute favorite of mine from the past. Last summer when I went to Japan I scooped up Joint Assault at a GEO and, while the planes flew like kites, I was pretty stoked to have a fluid camera and to be able to fly an A6M2 and Hellcat! (And the 747 was...surprisingly fun!)

[@lukasi.v4269]

For some reason I think the mass battles in AC6 are somewhat better than the AC7's. I just want Namco to give us an Ace Combat with ACZ's story, AC5's epic tale and AC6's/AC7's gameplay mechanics and massive battles.

[@hellcatdave1]

I don't think AC6 is as bad as everyone says it is. The cutscenes are really great, and the story is not that bad. It's more of the somewhat stiff dialogue that sometimes makes the game sound goofy. But everything else, it's my absolute favorite AC game. The combat is so fun and the missions are great. I don't think AC7 really compares to AC6 in overall experience, though I love them both.

[@lukasi.v4269]

@@hellcatdave1 "Go dance with the angels" on repeat hahaha

[@TheRibbonRed]

@@lukasi.v4269 that's because they actually are. AC7's "mass battle" design relies on the AC5 approach of sticking allies on your butt while you do most of the work. At times, they'll help you whittle down an enemy's HP, but they'll never killsteal from you unless it's scripted or non-TGT enemies far from your currently selected target. They still do some work though, which makes the experience less cumbersome but at the cost of a less thrilling gameplay. AC6's on the other hand, designed to make you feel like the *cough* _singularity_ *cough* that turns the tide of the battle. Everyone and everything on your side _relies on you_ until you build up that missile charge and make Ichiiro Itano proud. Of course, this does mean your allies suck ass, but the sheer number of killing +150 enemies on a regular mission with double the time limit (30 minutes instead of the regular 15) makes you feel like a damn superweapon. @Nassault yeah, some aspects of JA is good. But after replaying it years after it launched, I learned that its overall gameplay degraded from ACX's perfect portable downsizing of the core AC4 experience.

[@AzureanSky]

I wonder if you could be able to fit the other Ace combat games after 7 in a fast motion of going through all the games there at the end but this video is great Nassault! Keep it up!

[@Nassault]

I totally thought about it, I'm sure i could have added X and the DS version clips in that part, but I just settled on the holy trinity. Maybe I should have!

[@3DPDK]

I watch your videos for a different reason than most. I'm always impressed with your cinematic instincts. An interesting side note is that I was in the U.S. Navy in the late 80s/early 90s. As a very necessary part of my job I had to learn the capabilities and threats of all these Soviet air platforms. Of course there was never any hostile encounter between the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. during that time (besides a few (unofficial) "games" of "chicken") so this has an added interest for me to see what *might* have happened if there had been. A certain ... satisfaction ... (all due respects to our Russian counterparts) to watch a Bear Bravo experience, uh ..., forced disassembly, ... um ..., unscheduled rapid field alterations like that.

[@Nassault]

that makes two of us! I was only 2 when the first one came out. Didn't get a taste of Ace Combat until I bought (probably traded) Ace Combat 04 from an old friend in the back row of a quiet school bus on a foggy morning in 2005. I remember taking it out of my backpack just to get a glance at the booklet insert throughout the school day, so interested. Little did I know, that was only the beginning.. Sitting Ducks blew me away. What was you first one?

[@ProNoobGamer93]

I started from Ace Combat 2. It was one of the first games I got on PS 1. I remember it took my child brain weeks to figure out that when the target becomes red and you hear the beeping sound, it means that you got a missile lock and then you shoot. After that I must have played through the first few missions like 15 times before my parents bought me a memory card. And the rest is history.

[@Nassault]

@@ProNoobGamer93 brings a tear to my eye.. awesome!!

[@InsanestFoxOfAll]

This series is older than me by about a year, and the story of strangreal is my favorite out of any game series I've come across. An Arcadey Fighter game has no reason to have a story THAT good, yet, here we are. AC04 was my first, and it holds up even better than I remember.

[@TheRibbonRed]

Heh, I actually first played AC2 when I was 2 years old lol, and immediately played AC3 the year after--when AC3 first released. Although I couldn't remember my first AC2 gameplay, I actually managed to play up 'till the canyon mission for AC3. I guess replaying them over and over until I made it trained me in playing further AC games. I even found myself baffled looking at normal people that think AC games are "hard".

[@DocPeabody337]

I cut my teeth on ACE 4. I fondly remember during two separate family thanksgivings my playing it on my uncle's Ps2. I really got into Ace Combat with 6, playing the demo, watching the trailers, ect. I still laugh, as yes, looking back on it, it probably had the worst story for a canon Ace Combat game, but frankly, all the Ace Combat games have pretty silly or bad stories/characters. But its a fun kind bad with the campy voice acting and over the top spectacle. To this day, I aptly refer to the Ace Combat series as the "Anime of Flight Sims". Over the top action, some serious stressing of physics, and some laughably bad English dubbing, all mixing together to create an unforgettable experience. How far we've come with Ace Combat indeed, and frankly, I'm surprised it even made it this far. Thank you Nassault for this video! I enjoyed this trip down memory lane... (even if you didn't include my childhood favorite Ace 6!!!!! ;D )

I started off playing 6 so I'm a little disappointed not seeing it in there. I do understand why people dislike 6, its story is a little different from the rest, and some of its cringey characters and dialogue. See the reason why I like 6 so much is because of it not focusing around Belka, Usea, Erusea, and ect. because 6 is telling its story of the impact of Ulysses on their nation of Emmeria and Estavokia. I think people should give it a little leeway. ACH on the other hand I didn't care for all that much the one thing I liked about it was the aircraft customization.

I only really started playing Ace Combat games like 10 years ago, so I didn't necessarily grow up with them, but I feel like I did lol. In 2020 I played every AC game (excluding stuff like Xi or Advance) and it was really neat to see the evolution of the series, but more importantly to track how it's managed to just stay fun to play for 25 years. We talk a lot about the stories, music, characters, even politics of the series (with good reason), but at the end of the day they've almost always remained fun. Blasting through an underground tunnel at full speed, pulling a ridiculous maneuever to take out like 4 planes at once, or hitting the deck to see if you can fly under a bridge in the middle of a mission, just because you can. That stuff all holds up, regardless of generation. Ace Combat has managed to stay true to its Heart and to its Game philosophy all this time. The answer in itself will be there.

sad guitar strumming I was just a child when the stars fell from the skies, but I remember how they built a canon to destroy them... and in turn how that cannon brought war upon us. War was an abstract idea, nothing more than a show on TV... As a child, I only saw it as something that happened in some far away land... Until that final day of summer... One day, while on my way to school, I looked up in the skies... A sound like distant thunder. In the blue skies far above me, contrails drew dizzying circles around in a crazy waltz... guitar music stops, overshadowed by the roar of engines and afterburners A battle in the beautiful skies far away... I could not tear my gaze away from them. A deafening roar... And then a sharp silhouette appeared, as if to graze the hills, and streaked past me. The fighters played the cat and the mouse in turn as they climbed swiftly into the sky, One fleeing plane fell out of the skies, Spiraling and spewing orange flames to crash by the cape... The same cape where my family lived... Now they only live in my memories of days past. The victor circled around to confirm the kill, sad music of defeat begins and on his craft there was a large number 13 - emblazoned in yellow. I will never forget this. The allies retreaded across the ocean, before the onslaught of the enemy. Our little town in the heart of the mainland, fell into deep isolation.

I wish it was financially worth Aces doing a complete remake of 4 and 5. The stories and music in those two were amazing. I'm sure the only way to do it would be having a different studio do it as their first "large" title game. All they do is the graphical work with the Unreal engine, just carry all the script/voices for 4 and 5, and flight dynamics/controls from AC7. I know there's more too it but something like this would be a nice buffer till Aces can get AC8. But it's just a dream of mine. I will continue to play the originals over and over.

Ace Combat Assault Horizon: An Ace taking place in a fictional real world okay for my liking. Ace Combat 6 Fires of Liberation: My fourth Ace playing as Garuda 1 aka "Talisman." With alright story, but awesome climax/realistic aircraft detail. Ace Combat 7 Unknown Skies: The most recent of Ace series playing as Trigger aka "Three Strikes." With okay story others have done better with, but some epic tracks again like this song.

The Ulysses impact took place in 1999. Ace Combat 3 is set in the 2040s, though "real time" may be a few years sooner than that; explaining any further would be spoilers. If you've never played the Japanese version of AC3 with its branching in-depth storylines, I highly recommend looking into playing the fan translation. The English release of the game was a joke.

Slight adjustment: AC3 (JP): Conflict between two megacorporate entities, played as an ace of UPEO peacekeeper force with branching paths that allow the players to choose their faction.

I'm telling you, AC3 has the deepest and most well told story of the franchise so far. I just want for AC8 to surpass AC3.
