Valkyrie Hunter D Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 If they really wanted to milk the VR thing they could have a virtual mission with Razgriz wingman, Kei Nagase...rawr. Quote
David Hingtgen Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 I just hope that adding in VR and XBox compatability aren't the main reasons for the delay. If we could instead have had a "normal" PS4 release by now... Quote
kajnrig Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 (edited) Hm... I wonder if the hangar sections will be fixed location, or if you'll be able to move around with the controller. The trailer only ever shows the camera rotating around a fixed point, albeit from different angles. Flight scenes look phenomenal, though. Might make me finally splurge for a PS4 Pro + PSVR. (EDIT: Actually, I believe it comes out on PC, too, right?) Edited October 31, 2017 by kajnrig Quote

I wonder if some smart cookie will find a workaround for PC users though (not that I would know, I'm pretty ignorant when it comes to computer stuff). Quote
dizman Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 Pretty sure I saw a ribbon insignia on the tail of that F-18, good to know Mobius Squadron is still around. Quote
Roy Focker Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 I've decided there's enough good games coming out to upgrade to a PS4. Quote
David Hingtgen Posted November 1, 2017 Posted November 1, 2017 Considering we've seen multiple Erusian Flankers, Yellow squadron is almost guaranteed. A sequel to AC4 would be great---it's been 16 real years (OMG) so having the story show what's happened "20 years later" would be very interesting. Quote
AN/ALQ128 Posted November 1, 2017 Posted November 1, 2017 I found a blog which is translating some interviews from Japanese sources on AC7. http://www.encycstra.net/blog Quote
kajnrig Posted February 19, 2018 Posted February 19, 2018 Kotobukiya 1/144-scale XFA-27 in an Ace Combat Infinity scheme. It was showed off a while ago, but electric indigo got another pic from a recent event (WonFes?). Quote

Late reply, but what the hey I use a free virtual desktop app to apply "Ghetto VR" in IL-2 Cliffs of Dover It was actually a workaround for my broken DIY Headtracker, it turns out that in Opentrack there is an engine that uses the Oculus (dunno if it's possible for Vive) Now, it's not comparable to something that is VR Ready as for instance War Thunder, but it gets the job done And if I were to grab a certain paid VR desktop (of which I forgotten the name) this one can actually mimic the lens setup and project full screen on them Quote

I'm pretty sure he just meant a Star Wars aerial game like Ace Combat. But since you mentioned Macross, I can't say the same thing though with Macross Delta. Quote

I enjoyed macross 30 for as far as I got anyway. Wish the text had an English option though. Great game regardless. Project Aces would definitely raise the bar in terms of combat and realism. I think they could definitely pull it off. Surprised they haven't got together with bandai to discuss the possibility of a macross sim/game. Quote
F-ZeroOne Posted February 24, 2018 Posted February 24, 2018 I did indeed mean a space combat game. I'm aware of "Battlefront II" and the starfighter combat is quite good fun (if only I could stop ramming asteroids) but it'd be nice to have the kind of truly epic space dogfights and batsh*t crazy story "Ace Combat" is known for... "Sir! Its the Rebel Fleet! And... and... " "And what Lieutenant?!" "They... appear to be singing, sir!". Quote

TrickyCustomer Posted February 25, 2018 Posted February 25, 2018 I haven't got ps vr but if I was going to buy it, it would be for Ace Combat 7. Add that experience to a macross valkyrie game = mind blown / eyes bleed / heaven Quote

kajnrig Posted February 25, 2018 Posted February 25, 2018 Speaking of updates, there's been no word of a release date for this game, has there? Quote

I don't think it's a game. It was just an announcement of a VR project. Not specifically a game. Could be a something like a ride or something like that. Quote

Axelay Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 I saw an article a few days ago that this is coming out on PC. That certainly sparks my interest in this game. I haven't kept up with the news at all since I don't have a PS4, so y'all probably already knew this. Quote
Chronocidal Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 (edited) I'm still iffy on ports after what's happened with previous games, but if this means I can just use my HOTAS and pedals, I can save a bunch of money and skip the PS4 entirely. Not that I will, because there are other games I want. But I can at least focus my VR purchases toward the PC only, which is still saving a bunch of money. My biggest concern is that we'll wind up with another HAWX situation, where the entire game is still geared toward using a gamepad, and no one on the development team has their head on straight enough to realize that most flight sim hardware doesn't use an analog view hat (not to mention all the other ridiculous problems HAWX had).

dizman Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 From what I've been reading it seems like AC7 will only have VR support for the PS4. X1 and PC are apparently being ignored though I wouldn't doubt there will be a workaround on PC soon after it's release. Quote
kajnrig Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 IIRC, the VR gameplay is a separate set of missions from the main campaign(/multiplayer?), so omitting it entirely from the PC/XB1 releases might be a possibility, making any workaround even more difficult... Quote

I honestly don't even give two shakes about getting it in proper 3D. I just want head tracking. Still disappointing to hear, I can't fathom why they would not make the entire game compatible with such a literally game-changing feature.. but after the past two AC games, I'm not jumping on this one too quickly anyway.

kajnrig Posted April 3, 2018 Posted April 3, 2018 AC4/5/Zero HD might be in development: http://www.siliconera.com/2018/03/26/ace-combat-04-5-zero-remasters-might-development/ Quote
dizman Posted April 3, 2018 Posted April 3, 2018 Oh man an AC3 remake would be great, it would even tie in with AC7 since we are seeing some early forms of the tech in AC3 in some of the trailers. Unfortunately I don't think there is much demand for a remake, it didn't even sell well in Japan if I remember correctly. Quote

I would liked to have seen the PSP games and 360-only Ace Combat 7 in the HD collection, though, but I'll honestly take what I can get. Maybe I'll get super lucky and Bamco will give us a Steam version... Quote

The PSP ACs would definitely be good candidates for remasters/remakes as well. They already look and run great on PPSSPP, all they would really need is a texture update. Plus the unique fighters in Skies of Deception are all really cool. I just want my Strangereal aerial soap opera, damn it! Quote
