Saw this on the video for faceless soldier:
The only thing that would have made this scene better would be after the rest of Spare forms up on Trigger, the squad commands, returning from AC5 appear on your screen

[@K3ntucky123]

but you still dont give command like other ac series which is very infuriating

[@SirDinzhi]

I got this little goosebumps when that scene happened

[@NightWanderer31415]

Epic moment. This is what the series is all about.

2:41 that chuckled is the sound that full band who'd knew he would fucked up

[@revolverocelot423]

Look at his photos

[@mr.h1083]

Honestly, Faceless Soldier sets up Trigger’s role so well.
We never see Trigger actually fly in a formation until now. Up until this point, he’s always been the support element, be it as Mage 2 or escorting Strider Squadron and Cyclopes Squadron. But now, we see him in formation as the lead element. And this sets Trigger up for his role so beautifully because amidst all the confusion and all chaos, Trigger is the one Tabloid called for everyone rally behind. Trigger is the one they follow and form up with.
And thus, “Stick with Trigger, and you’ll make it” came to being (minus Full Band, but we all know what happened there…)

Technically didn’t Spare complete mission objectives? They could have all be left to die right there.

[@power01rajo]

i think he does, he gave full band two chances to shut his mouth and even seemed resigned when he decides he had to kill him (before the faceless soldier part, when trigger is still taking out the radar sites)

[@Darestine]

He asks where Full Band is when they form up and chortles after Full Band gives him his position. Sounds like he was smug about his idea.

[@hartantoanggoro]

he had to kill Full Band to prevent a leak information, harsh but if not he might spread words and causing massive damage to the Osea especially 444th penal base

[@makeitthrough_]

​@@DarestineAfter he had resigned himself to killing Full Band so that he didn't take the rest of the unit out with him by blabbing state secrets over an unsecured line, seeing the enemies with spoofed IFF flying the same type of plane as Full Band must have felt like a cosmic joke, only not at Bandog's expense. It was a gift from the heavens delivered right to his lap
