AC8 better have a better flight model. The one in 7 sucks ass, doesn't even model gravity. Even the PS2 games are waaaaay better.

7 would have been godly if they had stuck to the branching story paths they had clearly intended.

yeah I never stalled once playing 7. 04 is still goated for the flight model.

7 wasnt that bad. its just wasnt as serous as the others due to money and the times. 8 will probably reference the portable games since they are less tied to the real world

wish there was a mod that increased the amount of ammunition you get by a factor of 10 so I could really get the ace combat experience

>Ace pilots only appear on free mission, have shitty requirements and only the F14 Kitten guy puts a fight, all others fly in a straight line.
>No flight model

>No CO-OP wtf were they thinking !
>Bare bone multiplayer that has serious balancing problems plus hacking on PC

Kono has to go and one of the OGs from AC3/4 take the lead

The tomboy and the lonesome airfield are kino. The rest is serviceable, i guess? Problem is the story just meanders and the drones theme stinks.

I just want to fly and shoot things, I hate all of the gimmick restrictions on every level

and I completed the game on steam last week, yeah the plot was kinda meh but all they need to do is use a mix of AC6 and 3/4 for the next game.

They need to stop with these shitty ass gimmicks like DFM in assault horizon or the cloud bs that added nothing to the gameplay, and going for 60fps while using UE4 was a utter retarded choice, now you have to trim down the combat zone and dumb down the AI because the base consoles cant handle it

considering the absolute state of bamco i really don't think AC8 will be any better than AC7

i don't hate it, it's just that i don't enjoy it nearly as much as AC4, ACZ or ACX

I suspect for what they shown on the 30th anniversary trailer, they might be doing more DLCs for 7 and not a sequel, why ? because they went back to work on Kakarot after 5 years lmao.

bamco is just a sad company

It's the same Simtranny/PWfag that has been shitting up Ace threads for years now, just don't pay attention to him

Probably not, given it's once again in development hell.

Who even plays this arcade slop? DCS is where the pilot chads are.

Both are fun.
T. DCS/SimRacing enjoyer, but also Gran Turismo /Ace Combat enjoyer. Because games are fun.
