    Buy it. Ace Combat 7 is basically being ignored by game media because they found it difficult. And as always, they call it the "Dark Souls" of flight games. This series has always been underrated.
    Ace Combat 5 and 6 are amazing titles in the series, and 7 is true continuation in the series.

    • @MindinViolet
      @MindinViolet 5 ปีที่แล้ว +62

    • @JDL0021
      @JDL0021 5 ปีที่แล้ว +56

      @ideamachineim yeah unlike the other Ace Combat games, which had amazing story lines, this story line is confusing and there's plot holes everywhere, but the gameplay is 10/10.

    • @gstar7686
      @gstar7686 5 ปีที่แล้ว +38

    I really wish Bandai Namco would release an Ace Combat Remastered Collection, featuring Ace Combat 4, 5, 6, and Zero. I would buy that in a heartbeat. With improved graphics, achievements, and it would be well worth the $60 dollars due to the amount of content.

      M.M i grew up with ace combat. The story can be a bit ridiculous but they’re fantastic mechanically wise, and it has this really awesome science fiction mixed within its lore. Cannons that shoot meteorites out of the sky to rain down hell on countries, aircraft carriers that are also air craft carriers with mounted guns and its amazing. Definitely look into the series

    Dude, great review! You always hit it right on the head! But, I must confess, I had preordered this game months ago. Not just the game, but the all inclusive season pass and joystick edition. The reason why is...this was the first game in a long time that my dad wanted to play. He was an NFO (Naval Flight Officer) in the United States Navy for most of his life. For those that don’t know, there are other planes in the military besides fighter jets. The ones he flew in were four seaters and performed roles outside of plane to target combat. His primary role was navigation and equipment, but sometimes he was in direct control of the plane. Anyway, he had several friends who were fighter pilots, and to put it simply, there were few places he enjoyed being more than in the sky. Anyway, he saw the ad for this game and was instantly sold. We were both so excited for it, and he couldn’t wait to play my PlayStation with a controller he actually understood.
    Unfortunately, as you may have guessed, my father passed away last year, right alongside HIS father, in a tragic plane crash. They were trying to fly my grandfathers private prop plane from CA to FL. They only made it as far as Heber, AZ.
    But I still bought the game, and I painted my Fathers name and Naval callsign on the joystick. And I don’t care what any one else says, I will play this game until it stops working. I will play this game until I’m the best at it. Because my Father was the best, and this is one of the many ways I’m going to honor him.
    Aces even challenge the true sky!
    Rest In Peace

    I’ve had my eye on this game for almost two years now and I am so so excited it has finally released, And even more excited that it has gone back to its roots. I believe the last one I played was ace combat four and I absolutely loved that game as well. the story was surprisingly compelling, and for you to say the same thing about this one just has me beyond stoked to get it started . Only thing that’s stopping me right now is Just waiting for it to finish downloading . But anyway bro just wanted to say great review and hope to see you in the Beautiful yet not so friendly skies soon.

    I absolutely love how the HUD feels pretty much the same as it was in Ace Combat 3 back in the PS1 days! I think that was the last one I actually played. so much nostalgia, good times!
    What about the story? Does it matter if I'm going into this blind?

    I was on the fence, and this video is the one that convinced me to buy the game during the summer Steam sale. I must say.... wow. This game is beautiful and the planes handle really well. I have Ace Combat Assault Horizon on Steam also, and was thinking they would be essentially the same thing so why waste money.... Let me say Ace Combat 7 plays and feels a LOT better. It's a lot less tedious and is just.... fun. Great review, man.
    ( By the way, your review on Monster Hunter World got me to buy that game too and I had lots of fun with that one. I'm going to be subscribing to this channel now. )

    I find it shady how they are not giving us Ace Combat 6 & Ridge Racer 6 for the backwards compatibility on XB1. They pulled those games from the XB & PS stores. As a long time fan and one who literally bought all of their products on all the older consoles, this hurts!! Anyone else disappointed?

    • @alexvswrld
      @alexvswrld 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Jack .Stravinsky man that sucks. I have the PS4 Pro which I use as my main console, but I also have the Xbox one for backwards compatibility. I was watching this video thinking I might be able to play AC6 on my Xbox One. Luckily I still have my Xbox 360.

    I'm currently playing this on PC and recently completed on hard. Unlocked the Ace difficulty. Feels like the game made me push myself just for that moment. And yes, expert level flight is the only flight for me. Also first person view.

  • @remielpollard787
    @remielpollard787 5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I stopped pre-ordering games many years ago, almost a decade. I made it a rule not to, for anything, because of some bad purchases that didn't deliver.
    But there are two games this year that I'm breaking that rule for. I've been an Ace Combat fan ever since it was Air Combat, and you had to get it imported from Japan. So I've preordered this without hesitation. The other one is MechWarrior 5, which I will be preordering closer to the release date in September, because there hasn't been a proper MechWarrior title since 2004, and as an oldschool BattleTech tabletop player, the new BattleTech game has brought me back to the franchise, and MW5 is giving me a huge hardon.

    Finally someone said it , fuck that timer. All AC games had timers but they were finely tuned to push you not shove you to the point where it feels like a speed run like this title. Its the laziest way devs introduce difficulty. Multitasking is a bit clunky , they saturated the game with it , some people love it and some hate it.

    A 10 was not meant for Air-Air combat. The A10 is a cannon strapped to a plane made for Air-Ground support. Its "slow" speeds allow it to have excellent loitering capabilities, Therefore better more time to eat tanks on the ground. Lots of people look down on the A10 for its weak to Air-Air capabilities but you ask any solider who's been pinned down by heavy enemy fire and then hearing that BRRZZZZZZZTTT from an A10 swooping down turning the enemy into fertilizer, thats the sound of heaven and the Lord has sent down an Angel in the form of the A-10 Warthog.

    • @xjohn1970
      @xjohn1970 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      You mean a A-10 is a Jet strapped on to a big 30mm gun A-10 air to air capabilities are not so bad. it can out turn a fast mover and it can slow down to line up a missile shot on a fast movers were the afterburner jet would stall and fall out of the sky but not before the A10 hit them one of its air-to-air missiles

    The only Ace Combat game I've played was Horizon Assault which was okay but watching this review reminded me of Ubisoft's HAWX which I had a great time playing. Plus, air combat games are rare nowadays and I hope this is a resurgence for that kind of genre.

    Ace Combat is one of those games that has a very special place in my heart , I played every single game since Ace Combat 2 on PS1 and will play every future game that comes out ! I actually love the story in these games the insane over the top stuff that Japanese game developers have mastered Ace Combat is like Metal Gear Solid In the sky. You either fully embrace the game as a whole or never quite get into it but generally speaking the series as a whole is the best arcade modern air combat game !
