Project Wingman: Frontline 59 | Mission 1: Bottom of the Barrel

[@josephg3153]

That feeling when AWACS Galaxy appears as an enemy on the subtitles. Reminds me of Ace Combat 5 when Thunderhead's subtitles are red.

[@ZephirumNick]

or Crimson being blue omg

​@@ZephirumNickSomehow our King Crimson 1, very angry and a nuclear enthusiast being blue feels complicated.

So the story starts basically from "Cold war" after the fight with the peacekeepers so the federation already got their airpower massacred at this point except for their airships.

[@potato88872]

I too would be cocky after mission 11 level

[@cypher2207]

Huh, so I guess the next mission would explain why we briefly saw some Cascadian-held territory in Magadan in PW's original campaign

[@gabrielcamargo3010]

My headcannon is that K9A was a Uber (or the equivalent of that), that's why the callsign. And honestly, going from Monarch to Driver as Player characters it too funny, the shift in tone is awesome!

[@cipher0328]

Can you tell me what Cobb would be them? It’s probably an obscure occupation I don’t know of.

[@gabrielcamargo3010]

@cipher0328 I think cobb might refer to Cobbler, which is a very old way of calling shoemakers. I think it may refer to handymans/general repairs too, but I am not sure.

During the first briefing around 1:00 you can see Driver's government emails, and three of them are about speeding tickets, so we can gather that he likes to drive fast.

So, Crimson 1, 5 and 7 are the 3 pilots that survived the Bering Strait mess canonically. Oh, and Crimson 7 seems nice. Shame she is stuck with Crimson 1.

[@cwp24]

Makes sense, crimson 1 is a narcissist. Seeing what he did in the end of mission 20.

[@DiogenesTheCynic.]

Crimson 7 was the PK transporting PW Mk1/ Icarus Armory planes throughout the main campaign so she was already accounted for being alive post Cold War

[@asherwiggin6456]

This must’ve been the reason that some of the assets like what appear to be a magadan peacekeeping squadron and an extra map were left unused

[@simplifiedmutiny5873]

incredibly hilarious how some random periphery mercenary f/d-14 has the capability to use LMAOA limiters

[@Jayjet777]

Headcannon, Eye Tee is Prez's long lost twin

[@SANESX]

Or could be real sister. Prez's file mention her family is in Federation core state.

[@DiogenesTheCynic.]

If “The Good Daughter” short story is still canon, Prez DOES have a twin sister name Sybil, but does not seem to be in the Federation and in turn believe Prez is a Federation Soldier and not a merc. It’s also stated that their Grandmother was a former Peacekeeper.

[@strider117aldo9]

Cut stuff said her real name is Naren Fujio, writeoff based on intent

Can I say that the soundtrack for this mission is amazing like the rest main game that Pavli done

[@ariffetorlase9783]

K9, really going heavy with the dog metaphors aren't they? Also they added taxing! That's awesome! AC hasn't even done that yet.

[@ardantop132na6]

Crimson 1 saying "Letting the dogs fighting out" is a bit on the nose, no? Now I'm curious if reservists had the same reputation of mercenaries.

[@TheGraySeed]

​​​​@@ardantop132na6Feels like Crimson 1 are simply looks down on the reservist as he expect them to just drop dead against the Mercs hence why he calls K-9 "dogs", this is further proven that Crimson 1 focusing on telling his squadron to regroup and not thanking K-9 while Crimson 7 does the thanking.

[@adlibbed2138]

​@@TheGraySeedand K-9 is a play on word "cainine" which means dog in latin, talk about coincidence

So we have some kind of driver, an IT specialist, a shoemaker, a bet-taker, and a brick layer XD

[@cloudmangalm03]

Narratively speaking, if the main game was the opposite of what the average Ace Combat experience was, this DLC is exactly how every Ace Combat starts. Motley crew is gathered to save the day and beat up the baddies.

[@michaelandreipalon359]

Watching this after the DLC finally getting a PC port. Unvoiced briefing. Makes sense the small scope of what's basically an expansion pack, but it sure helps with the professionality and the hands-off approach of the Federation's higher echelons. Of course, beings reservists means a good excuse to only have good enough aircraft, but no superfighters. Quite a smart start, the sudden alert launch and being called amateurs by the local AWACs. Won't lie, almost losing those launch bearings felt right for the player, Driver. Ah, the Bering Strait. Seems this is during the main campaign's eleventh mission. 6:55: You weren't. It's just that "He" was there, some sort of butterfly/maple leaf ace planet. 8:22: Don't make him fatherless then. 11:22: Lucky that enemy AWACs isn't here... hold on, is that an old friend in another side of the story? 12:54: Say again, lass? 13:14: The butterfly/maple leaf... 13:48: ...Stop moping around and letting break all that remaining sanity. At least they're still flying and not entirely annihilated. 15:04: Same will be done in less, and I expected you guys to be Revolutionary Girl Utena references. (18:46 addendum: Like so.) 16:58: What about Eye-Tee the WSO gal right behind? 19:07: You're welcome, Sev. 19:11: General Faust. Will remember that name. Barely even a debriefing in the end, but hey, it's voiced.

[@badasstasticusbadass4908]

To be fair... TECNICALLY speaking, Cascadia was the one who started the war by wanting to be Independent from the Federation, and it is also the Federation's fault for scalating the comflict until it came out of control. Cascadia is not 100% innocent of any wrong doing, since they were ones in charge on behalf of the Feds to destroy the Mercenary Cabal in Oceania 15 years ago, amoung other things that we don't know. Pretty much is like a very gray area, still... the Feds ended up becoming the villains after what they did in Prospero.
