This video is really useful for new player of Ace Combat, but it seems a lot of veteran Ace Combat interested in this type of videos too... Nice work, ACF...
Played only a bit of Ace Combat on my 360 ages ago, no coming back for 7 I couldn't have wished for more than this series! Seriously thank you so much! Fantastic pretension, great humor and very informative! Thank you all for your work! Greatly appreciated!
the lock on time diffrence becomes more prominent the more the target is off bore, which is critical in dog fights or when you switch targets during an attack run on ground targets. over all great video !
Actually, the LASM has a fairly large blast radius, though it is only large enough to take out the weapons of a ship. Hence the full name of the LASM (Long range Air to Surface Missile), while you can use it to take out vehicles and structures, the LASM is best deployed against naval targets, especially the dreaded AEGIS cruisers with their complement of SAMs. Also, the LASM and the XAGM flies in a very specific trajectory. The LASM if fired from a high altitude will normally dive down to treetop level when tracking a target, while the XAGM will fly at a higher altitude before doing a sharp 90 degree dive at the target below. Keep this in mind when firing the LASM at high altitude because you can run the risk of the missile slamming into a hill because said hill is between you and your target. Finally, the XMAA and XLAA have a difference in its tracking delay. The XMAA will start tracking at the moment of launch, while the XLAA will have a delay roughly around a second before they start tracking. in the context of AC6, you can launch an XMAA within range 10000 of a target and have a high chance of getting a kill, while launching an XLAA at the same range will only get you a guarantee kill against a non maneuvering target like a bomber. Fun fact: I actually never knew you can fire a QAAM even when your nose is not on target. I always thought the QAAM from AC4 was gamebreaking because it will track you for what amounts to an eternity, but if AC7 have the same 360 lock on like in 6, the QAAM of the new generation would easily beat out the AC4 QAAM any day.
Didn't know about QAAM being able to do that and now I need to check if it works in AC7. Though, after work is done. Never knew a regular job would impede on my nolife sessions so much. :( Why does everything cost money? :D
I've noticed that stealth aircraft take longer for enemies to lock missiles on. It is not long enough to really matter, at best 1 or 2 seconds, but it is noticeable. Honestly, just pick a plane you like with a special weapon for the mission.
Great stuff there! I have to admit I never really exactly knew how to use BDSP, I somehow managed to do it, but you could say I was... winging it, so I'm glad you took the time to explain how they work! Also inverted aerial refueling is something I've never thought of, but it sure sounds fun!
Not sure if it’s mentioned in this video or not, but how important certain stats are can vary wildly from game to game. For example, Def, as seen above, is basically nonexistent in 6 at Ace, but in 7, you can normally eat at least 1 missile when flying mid level defense planes
This has helped me clarify the qualities of some of the weapons, and I've been fine-tuning my weapon cards in my Ace Combat DnD campaign. From a fellow fan and rookie, thank you!
I just realized the other day how amazingly overpowered the Tornado is in the air-to-ground role. The BDSPs one-shot the hell out of land units and the cannons can kill a tank in like four rounds. It's amazing how ridiculous some of these seemingly simple weapons can be, is my point. Sorry for being unclear haha
Sadly Ace Combat 7 does not have the FAEB. However it does have the LACM (Land Attack Cruise Missile). WARNING! SPOILERS BELOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Extremely useful in mission 12 and you can use it on the Arsenal bird
actually stealth DOES play a role in SOME Ace Combat game (not in all). I know for a fact that in AC2 enemies target you less if you are in a stealth plane. also there is a stealth mechanic in AC7, enemies will target you less, there is even a part that improves stealth in the single player mode
Jeez! 5 jokes in just the first 3 minutes got me rollin on the floor! This was supposed to be background noise but sir, you've got my full attention now.
Ace Combat Fan, love how you referred to Point & Shoot Cameras as Normie Cameras. In a way they are actually a good way to get into photography. DSLRs are still better for obvious reasons but they are still a good way to start.
LASM has one pretty important drawback, which you forgot to mention. When you release it, it drops down, and continues in straight line, and may collide with objects. XAGM, on the other hand, drops down on enemies, which is great for eliminating enemies behind buildings, for example.
I watch to whole video because I want to get better at ace combat and put what I learned into Ace Combat 7 this is the best 101 video I've seen and very well explained 👍👍
Thank you for all that valuable information. I was quite overwhelmed by the selection of special weapons since I quite didn't understand most terms since the German translation sucks
You can hurt and shoot down friendlies in Ace Combat 6. It's just that they have either a lot of health or they don't take that much of damage from you when you attack them.
Thank you so much for this video! I found it after watching the 1st tutorial from Tomcat171. As a novice flyer and AC7 game player, these videos are invaluable to me. I'd gotten myself up to being temporarily stuck in the 3rd mission, after a lot of restarts, and then some free flying, however I now have much more comfort with the game. Looking forward to watching the other tutorials.
It's a graphic that shows how much you've used that Airplane or Kill Count, I think it started with ZERO as when you've Maxed out on that Plane the Stars/Graphic thing literally shows PAC-MAN 😅
I've had an annoying time with the caution message in Ace Combat 5. The mission where you defend Sand Island and picked up Grimm tended to have a group or squad of enemy planes that lead you in a circular loop chasing them forever if you let them get behind you.
I think your stealth aircraft makes enemy take a little long time to lock you on. At least that's my experience in AC5 last mission. I tried every single jet I had to complete the first stage of the mission(ground target) including using the A10, only with Nighthawk I received less missile warning. Had to use FA18 anyway, as usual, because the second stage of the mission required air to air combat.
So many years of playing and I never pay attention to the range lock indicator near the altimeter... Good to have when trying new aircraft, but do they appear on cockpit view? Or is it only on HUD view? If it's only on HUD view, no wonder I never notice it..
In multiplayer AC7 When you lock on there are red lines that appear at 10 o:clock of the lock-on symbol. One then two then three then none. What are these indicators?
Ok - so HUD in Xbox Ace Combat 7 doesn't look anything like as outlined in these modules; I don't see where you can set for richer display info... Can community advise...?
OK I have a question ace combat fan example I have a f22 raptor or jas 39 gripen or f16 How to put a rail gun on a aircraft like f16 or f22 and f15 And how to operate it from a none stealth combat jet fighter
Each aircraft can only be equipped with a certain number of weapons so you can’t equip your F-16 with rail guns because they are not compatible with the plane
@@AceCombatFan Ahh OK I bin waiting in the next ace combat series after this ace combat skies unkown Coz I always I like to make those new. Jet fighter on my art collection
@@AceCombatFan I wish the next ace combat series always to have a returned line And to put it on android games and others platform with the same capability on ace combat assault horizon with other skirmish group

What do you mean you don't get the defensive weapons? It's straightforward.
@@Napoleonic_S I'll be fair, I posted this before watching the full vid, but before then, I never understood how to use ECMs in ACX.
Even after hearing how they work I still don't see how they're useful seeing as you can just out maneuver the missles....

Ironically AC6 is the one game where allie units are actually useful thanks the allied support feature.
It and ACZ, where Pixy can be pretty menacing if you let him be. Also, I recall AC3's AI allies weren't totally incompetent.
in AC5, your squad can get some kills

when you create your own Top Gun school
*Danger Zone intensifies*
At least in Ace Combat 2, Air-to-Ground and Air-to-Air stat affects the range at which you can lock-on target. Higher stat, longer lock-on range.
I got a fair few missions in to AC7 before I realized target switching was a thing. Should have come here first.
Also 10:54 Chopper: "Oh, just weave through the missiles. What are you nuts?!?"
This video deserves way more thumbs up considering the views and all the knowledge you provided.
This game has THE LEAST satisfying a10 sound ever!

The funny thing is, Assault Horizon has the best minigun sound
Not sure if it’s mentioned in this video or not, but how important certain stats are can vary wildly from game to game. For example, Def, as seen above, is basically nonexistent in 6 at Ace, but in 7, you can normally eat at least 1 missile when flying mid level defense planes

Burn chikens to the ground!
Even though you don't have missiles on that mission lol. You _can_ destroy it by dropping a whole bunch of neutralizing agent on it though.
