@@WomanSlayer-69 And then you come back later with your own AOA Limiter and go: "Hah! I spit on your 90 degrees!" *Violently wrenches the plane around to launch missiles at your pursuer 180 degrees behind you, violently wrenches it another 270(for fun) to dodge missiles* "Huurrrrrrlllll!! I'm having so much fun, oh fuuuuck!!"
I brought the T4. God damn was it was it difficult trying to get a lead with guns, because firing missiles was more useless than throwing a paper ball at them.
"Crimson Squadron's on station. AWACS, is this them? The mercenaries?" "Affirmitive. Drive these mercenaries out of the airspace, Crimson 1." "Roger, tallyho. Let's chase these dogs off."
There 3 kinds of players in Project Wingman. Those who engage the Crimson Squadron on their first encounter with them, those who retreat, and those who engage and get smacked to death.
2:25 is legitimately one of the most genius applications of music design in gaming, the main theme comes in to add a bit of defiance and heroism, but you'll only get to hear that part in game if you have stuck around long enough and chosen to fight.
i felt so awesome dogfighting defiantly even if i didnt get to kill them, i ran out of ammo quickly and just kept running them around the lava trying to cause a crash
2:25 Note that this part sounds like Kings in a defiant and heroic matter. It literally showcases Crimson 1's frustration at Monarch for trying to steal his crown.
I remember when this fight started, was ready to fight then the boys said nah I'm out. The mission said run. The beat dropped and all confidence suddenly left my body. I even tried to turn and fight a little and they just dodged like it was nothing, did not help me at all. It was a hell of a moment.
I made the mistake of doing this mission in the SK.25 the first time, because I had no idea what was going to happen; I was sweating the entire run out dumping every flare I had on me, it was terrifying.
I told my friend before they start mission 6 “only stubborn pilots fail this mission” he got in and after blasting the ground in the sk-25, he asked how anyone could fail this mission
I love the Project Wingman soundtrack, I’ve got Kings, Showdown, Peacekeeper 1 and 2, and Coronation in my Spotify Top Songs of 2021. Thank you Jose for making such an amazing soundtrack.
me too, they're so good that i listen to them playing other games or when i'm commuting to work or coming home, definitely the best music from a game i've heard recently
The intros really build up the tension, like you're about to meet something ominous and dangerous. As always the soundtrack is amazing, thank you for uploading it!
Whoever installed a microwave in my fighter jet is a goddamned genius. Holy shit, look at those utensils *go,* they’re so fucking bright. Hey, maybe when we get back, we can microwave some more forks? It’ll be hilarious-oh shit, that camera has such good zoom. Prolonged exposure to the atmosphere’s radiation has opened our eyes to the holy sparkiness of the microwave oven, specifically metal inside it, and you’re looking awfully lot like a spoon right now. -Schwarze 1, Area B7R, 1995
Aha, so this would explain why the fan-made videos are gone. Very pleased to see an official release, the intros really add a lot of awesome tension to the song.
1:31 absolutely love this part, because in comparison to Ace Combat, Project Wingman is very punishing and tough, and this part really makes you feel the pressure in that first fight with Peacekeepers, if you choose to engage them. Flaring in the wrong spot or stopping pulling can mean getting killed, and the timestamp always kicked in when i was pulling and seeking for a moment to shoot (i was replaying this mission with Tomcat a lot of times to score a kill on Crimson lol)
1:20 feels like a circus if they're beating the hell out of you and evading all your missiles , but in another way feels like an intro for a king if you start slaughtering them
I love that wind up to this dramatic, ominous approach at the start. I literally would play the same mission over and over just to listen to that part! Thanks for posting it full!
“Roger, tally ho. Let’s chase these dogs off.” I thought to myself: “These guys are too arrogant. I’m boutta ice these guys.” 1 AOA limiter and a couple missiles later, “AY IM SORRY IT WAS A JOKE I DIDNT DO IT ON PURPOSE IM SORR-“ **fucking dies** Real story.
I genuinely thought I might have to retreat because I ran out of hism, stdm, and had only 600 ammo left in my gun, not to mention that I had only damaged 1 of the vx-23s, then learned that you only have to get one to critical health
I remember my first time playing this mission. I was in a call with my friends on discord. We were just chatting and stuff. I was saying how easy this mission was as soon as the music started. I audibly said "oh shit" as I turned to try and fight. My friends asked what happened. I couldn't answer I and eventually just turned and ran. This soundtrack fully encapsulates that feeling the buildup gets you hyped like "oh yeah time to take down another squadron" then the actual song hits and you lose that feeling, your facing true aces. Crosstalk has a little bit of this but crimson does to a extreme.
My goodness, that build up at the start is like seeing a squadron of death approaching. Coupled with the [[ENGAGEMENT NOT ADVISED]] in game, it really hits the nail
The vertical pipes at 2:25 alongside the cellos really help create an atmosphere of death, and that if you screw up its game over. Really awesome work!
When everyone ran I tried to stay and fight peacekeepers. I thought it'd be fine, there was only 6 of them and I've shot like 50 planes so far. Then 1:51 hit and I watched the peacekeeper I was tailing stall his engine , do a 110 degree turn and zoom off before my STDMs connected. My smile dropped as I felt like a clown with that music in the background. 10/10 Thank you for the perfect sync of music Jose!
I still vividly remember when I first faced Peacekeeper squadron. I was flying an attack plane (can't remember the name for the life of me, but it wasn't suited for dogfighting at all), and dumbass me decided to just go with it, when the rest of my squad just peaced out, I stayed back, and somehow managed to fend them off. And after taking out one of their own, even with that AoA limiter Belkan magic bullcrap, I felt so fucking powerful.
Just finished mercenary amd all other difficulty and I remember replaying this mission that I use cheats sk 25 instead which turns out to be the horrible idea.
I stand here as a stubborn pilot using the SK-25U on Hard with (at the time) no idea how to use modules like flares, and I tell you what? I gave those Crimson Dentheads a fight they'll never forget, spinning, looping and blasting at them with careful timing again and again as their missiles fly passed me, unable to keep track of my Ferris Wheeling engines for a whole 20 minutes.
Oh.. I had to run the first time i engage them.... And im still so sattisfied to the fight i put before getting out of ALL AMMO.... It was fantastic. With this music on the background? I will fight for DAYS.
I still go back to machine of the mantle, specifically for this encounter. I put more and more modifiers on, more limitations on myself, every time. Nothing quite gets the adrenaline flowing like the first fight with Crimson Squadron.
This doesn't sound like music for a game about planes, this sounds like the boss music for a multiphase JRPG antagonist. Which, tbf, Crimson 1 kinda is.
Thank you for putting this up! Also what are the tracks playing through out M18: Return called? Does Peacekeeper II also have an unreleased intro? I miss the buildup in that piece.
I were too focusing on the game when I first play it and did not see the objective telling me to retreat from Crimson Squadron so I went ahead and fight them. But it gave me one hell of a challenge making my hand shiver from the intense battle, but is worth it.
me: wow, this mission has been pretty chill but fun. good thing this mission's wrapping up, i'm almost out! also me: oh god oh fuck why did the music change

And VerticalFlyingB737 ? He was a True Player.
@@spirz4557 I fell for the tunnel run bait on Machine of the Mantle
To be fair, I was in a MiG-29 so...
I didn't even realise that not engaging was an option the first time around
Squaring off with 8 very capable aircraft in nothing but a frogfoot was terrifying in the best way
With the intro it really feels like you are "invited" to dance over a volcano, regardless you wanted or not.
the foreshadowing is strong with this one
2:25 is legitimately one of the most genius applications of music design in gaming, the main theme comes in to add a bit of defiance and heroism, but you'll only get to hear that part in game if you have stuck around long enough and chosen to fight.
And it comes when Crimson 5 says "Crimson 1, are you seeing what i'm seeing?" It comes right when Crimson squadron starts to fear you
It's like Proof Of A Hero from Monster Hunter! You could feel like you're doing jack shit, but as soon as it kicks in, you could solo anything.
The irony for me is, I could never run. I had to fight to survive
@@Jusuff i wouldn't say fear. They more of see you as a arrogant dog who fights back when it's time to put you down

Wonder what happened to bro after that
Last words before disaster.
Pov me crashing and become one with the ground even before crimson squadron shows up:
@@katboi7140 same, I kept messing up hitting the lava reactor things before I realized I didn't have to go into the tunnels for em
I love how this sounds like Kings but more heroic. Really makes you vibe when you're in the final battle and the soundtrack is full-on menacing.
The intro A plus the "Crimson" name showing on the screen gives you a "Ohhhhh... shit" moment the first time you engage them.
I love the Project Wingman soundtrack, I’ve got Kings, Showdown, Peacekeeper 1 and 2, and Coronation in my Spotify Top Songs of 2021. Thank you Jose for making such an amazing soundtrack.

@@Eradicator-jv9xr it translates to "clutch or gay"
0:04 that gave me chills the first time I listened to it, before C1 piped me harder then the calamity.
1:20 feels like a circus if they're beating the hell out of you and evading all your missiles , but in another way feels like an intro for a king if you start slaughtering them
Jose Pavli truly is a man of the people, thank you so much for doing this! (even if it's only because so many people asked for it)
The intro adds another level of tension. Seriously, it just makes it more epic with this one intro.

Real story.
There's a reason they're the Peacekeepers other than [Enemy Pilot 3]
Predictable
You after complete camping and gotta go this mission BUT WITH PW1 THIS TIME: Game was rigged from the start boi
Ironically, a month ago I glued the intro from the game and the soundtrack on my own. and now you have released it
I genuinely thought I might have to retreat because I ran out of hism, stdm, and had only 600 ammo left in my gun, not to mention that I had only damaged 1 of the vx-23s, then learned that you only have to get one to critical health
Thats a really good gift for me especially today of all day's as we (Greece) got the first 6 Rafale F3R
Thank you very much mr Pavli
IFF confirmed. Federation Peacekeeping Squadron Crimson, identified with more reinforcements. This is it!
That's actually the other variant.
This is when you first encounter crimson team.
The intro last from 0:00 to 0:23.
In case anyone's wondering.
With the intro, its so much better. I love this.
Looking forward to it, the Intro for this one gives me chills everytime.
The 4 dislikes are definatly Dip, Comic, Monarch and Galaxy.
That intro is really fits well.
"Let's chase these dogs off"
Peacekeeper I is my favorite track from the album.
Now time for the B intro!
I remember my first time playing this mission. I was in a call with my friends on discord. We were just chatting and stuff. I was saying how easy this mission was as soon as the music started.

Every time the transition happens into the fight I just picture in my mind the
“ENGAGEMENT NOT ADVISED”
my head pop out :
- - CAUTION - -
federation peacekeeper squadron - crimson team
im still fascinated by how such a small indie team managed to make such an amazing game
Getting chils from cello or violin that is playing in the intro
The vertical pipes at 2:25 alongside the cellos really help create an atmosphere of death, and that if you screw up its game over. Really awesome work!
Can we also get the Peacekeeper II track with the intro that is used in the mission, please? It sounded awesome!

"Engagement not advised, disengage immediate-"
No i don't think i will, there's a reason why i put some of my pride in my profile picture.
I really wish that opening guitar went on longer, its so so so good
Mr. Pavli, i must say that you're a genius for using an organ in this arrangement.
I still vividly remember when I first faced Peacekeeper squadron. I was flying an attack plane (can't remember the name for the life of me, but it wasn't suited for dogfighting at all), and dumbass me decided to just go with it, when the rest of my squad just peaced out, I stayed back, and somehow managed to fend them off. And after taking out one of their own, even with that AoA limiter Belkan magic bullcrap, I felt so fucking powerful.
I'm still at this mission, almost hitting a crimson then I crash at the hill. The music make the game better. I love it.
Just finished mercenary amd all other difficulty and I remember replaying this mission that I use cheats sk 25 instead which turns out to be the horrible idea.
Imma add this to my study music now. Fun fact: It's just AC, PW, and Dawn Aerowar OSTs.
Is it some study on war crimes…
Add summerskies operation: fenster to it.
Love this track with the intro, and hope to see the others, on here and spotify
I remember when these soundtracks with the intros were taken down on youtube for copyright and only just realised that you've posted them, thanks!
This Soundtrack absolutely Smacks, the game in VR coupled with this is pure bliss
Oh hellllll yes! Can't wait for the others!
With an intro, it's even cooler
Haha Comic was right, popping cordium tanks IS kinda fun!
...
Ayo who's playing the organ?
Listened to this for the first time with earbuds in and never noticed the mongolian throat singing that's very, very faint in the intro. Nice touch!
Just completed Project Wingman on Mercenary. Great way to celebrate!
1:17 When I first heard this part was so frightening for some reason and it's so epic
God I love this intro so smooth, clean and elegant to me
plays two times in project wingman. in the yellowstone mission, and in the cold war mission
Me, a wild dog who brought gun pods: *I'M NOT FOLLOWING THE DAMN SCRIPT CRIMSON*
I stand here as a stubborn pilot using the SK-25U on Hard with (at the time) no idea how to use modules like flares, and I tell you what?

I still go back to machine of the mantle, specifically for this encounter. I put more and more modifiers on, more limitations on myself, every time. Nothing quite gets the adrenaline flowing like the first fight with Crimson Squadron.
The first fight were your supposed to run was so fun
This doesn't sound like music for a game about planes, this sounds like the boss music for a multiphase JRPG antagonist.

The theme of suddenly becoming a hypersonic vehicle in your Sk.25 after seeing the Crimson Squadron caution
**PREPARING THE SHITTYFLUTE**
Nothing quite like the feeling when this theme hits
