*_Expectations:_* Yellow 13 engages in an epic dogfight against his equal Mobius 1 in an honorable last stand against the ISAF. *_Reality:_* Gets bull-rushed by three fighters simultaneously and is unceremoniously SPAMRAAMed directly into the ground. 14:27
The AWACS SkyEye voice actor has the perfect tone and delivery. He maintains authority yet sounds empathetic. He does not glorify war either. He calmly states "Air superiority is ours," then says "You made it through alive Mobius One." He sounds weary and warm. I feel the realism here, the intense weight of the war being something somber and serious. No other AWACS comes close, except maybe Bandog or Long Caster, in showing as much character, and they do it in different ways. AC 5 & 6 are too melodramatic and overblown compared to the simple, composed SkyEye. SkyEye is the best.
Imagine being a soldier on the ground at 2:00. Watching the famed ribbon fly through the arch of the bridge as he wiped out the enemy in front of you, I would cheer.
16 years have passed. 16 years since Yellow Squadron's official disbandment. 16 years since Yellow 13's death *And 16 years since the end of the Continental War.*
I agree too and gameplay wise you need a mulitrole jet aircraft or Su-34 attack plane because they're optimized for air-to-air and air-to-ground combat. Easiest way would be F-18F AGM-84 harpoon LASM ground & naval targets but QAAM for Mihaly if you were able to use the Return line to replace the anti ship missile for air to air before 15 min is up
+Jango Peppers. yeah, i dropped an FAEB right on him as he was flying between the ruined buildings, it should've vaporized his plane, or at the very least the shockwave should've sent him careening into a building
Those SAMs aren't anything compared to Air Combat/Ace Combat 2 SAMs. Got in their firing range? They shoot _immediately._ These guys are nothing compared to those.
Lol I used this as reference to make my video too. It's Farbanti mission with this soundtrack. 😎 I think it came out ok. So glad Ace combat returned to form.
@@LunaPPK yeah that's expected of Namco taken over by Bandai corporate overlords. Let's not support the return of one of the few FLIGHT SIM IPS THAT SURVIVED THE GENRE'S FALL INTO OBSCURITY WITH ITS LORE AND EASE OF PLAYABILITY AND ARCADE ACTION FOR MORE BADLY CONTROLLING ANIME ARENA FIGHTERS TO BE FUNDED
I say this as someone who really likes Namco games especially the 3-dimensional ones that started in the 90s (Tekken, Ridge Racer, Ace/Air Combat, Soul Calibur) and few of them are still alive and in good standing.
At this point only yellow 13 remains of the original yellow squadron. Mobius 1 just shot down a bunch of replacement pilots. Kinda sucks mobius one never gets to chase down the guys who killed his comrades never got to fight the real squadron. Sucks the accomplishment out of it
this game gives me nerd chills every time lol. I love the dialogue from the ground forces and how they're so inspired by you. It's also great to see someone else who plays it well.
I think I've played each mission at least 50 times and I'm still hearing new radio chatter. Must be affected by the order in which you destroy certain targets on the map.
The outcome of the war rests on you, so stay focused on what's at hand. Remember survival is paramount. Good luck to you all! And Mobius 1, an end to the war would be a nice birthday gift as well. Mobius 1, engage.
Me: *watching Ace Combat playthroughs so that I might salvage some of the feeling and camaraderie Ace Combat fans enjoy under Project Aces* 0:07 Alright, let's do this! 13:24 About damn time -- just like with Mihaly in AC7, the infamous Yellow Thirteen will be engaged in a legendary battle above Farbanti. Let's see if Erusea is such sore losers THIS time! 15:58 No ... wait, really? That Kid followed Yellow Squadron ALL THE WAY back to Farbanti?!! After all his choices, and everything he lost; all those many chances at Revenge -- he chose Erusea... And for all he had wrought, he was orphaned TWICE -- once by Yellow Thirteen, and again by Mobius 1. And now ... he's really all alone. No family to go back to -- no discernible monetary skills ... and no potential father figures to see him unto the new era of Peace. Just him, and one young crush who chose to go with him ... :( A 22 year old game tugged on my heartstrings just as much as AC5 & AC7 did -- with only pictographs and less than half as many voice lines. This really is a good series. Wish I had picked it up as a kid.
13:24 you do know Ace 04 is Before ace7 right 😅 Besides they kinda Copied 1 for 1 with the Map and Mission designs like with Lighting and Mission style; aka Pretty Lazy just to Shove Nostalgia down your throat
I really would like to know how you managed to get this kind of quality and 60 FPS out of the amazing PS2 era. I would really appreciate it if you could help me achieving this so I can start doing my own PS2 AC playthroughs lol.
All done using just the Elgato Game Capture HD (the first one has a component input, and can record 60fps up to 720p). Then i just imported the videos to sony vegas to remove the black borders since it's a 480p original recording.
Anyone remembers playing this in 2001 thinking 2005 sounded so far into the future and unknown ? And here we are in 2022 where vaccine passports and communism is the norm, teetering on the verge of WW3.

"Out of Missiles."
THIS IS WHERE THE FUN BEGINS
Oh, this is going to be easy!
accurate
XDDDD
Trigger at Farbanti: How many times do we have to teach you this lesson old man!?!
That would be true if Mister X was Yellow 13.
My favorite things about this game are the
1: musical score
2: radio chatter establishing a realism theme

Farbanti should’ve been Mihaly’s grave just as it was Yellow 13’s

Mihaly was from Shilage, it's more fitting he got shot down there
@@LIONtib even then he still survived
+Jango Peppers. yeah, i dropped an FAEB right on him as he was flying between the ruined buildings, it should've vaporized his plane, or at the very least the shockwave should've sent him careening into a building
And at least the man would die by something he loves the most, flying.
LMAO 😂 6:04 right after he said that. That was epic.
Happy birthday AWACS SkyEye🎂🎉🎉🎉
Wait what
SAMS were vicious back then
Those SAMs aren't anything compared to Air Combat/Ace Combat 2 SAMs. Got in their firing range? They shoot _immediately._ These guys are nothing compared to those.
Ace combat 3s SAMs were the worst. Specially at he hrdest difficulty. Rightfully so, those sams were the most advanced anyway.
Bro these sams on Tango Line omg lol
Yeah and AC7 Sams just deliberately miss
AA guns too. 7% damage per hit is nothing to sneeze at
Friend
Just listen to that OST. It's a work of art. This game was the first thing that made me take music seriously as an art form when I was a kid.
On the same day, 14 years later, Trigger will make his strike on the city as well.
So cool we come back to this in ac7
Lol I used this as reference to make my video too. It's Farbanti mission with this soundtrack. 😎 I think it came out ok. So glad Ace combat returned to form.
This mission was my first dogfight years are fast
I can only assume the npc pilots here become part of the mobius squadron afterwards
Hawwwlucha you are correct
Basically the final battle is just the war between the Mobius and the Yellows, but one of the squadrons have the true ace
15:16 isn't it the reason though why Princess of Erusea didn't feel like she has any country she called home?
Actually, were the woman and little girl confirmed to be Rosa and her mom by the commander's corpse?
Wonder why that wasn't given attention to in 7

Nice gun kills.

Mobius 1, engage.
Were the woman and her daughter the family of the "supreme" Erusean commander? I'm assuming he committed suicide as ISAF invaded the capital.

I think bravo 1 is a kennedy.
Such a great mission!
I feels like Siege of Farbanti is not as intense, dark, grueling, and dramatic like Emancipation did.
Still is
