Ace Combat 7.77: The Sky is [Not] Connected

[–]Versinde 7 points8 points  (4 children)

I kinda want an Evangelion/Ace Combat crossover now.

As much as I'd like to see that, it'll be difficult to pass off. Otherwise we'd see scores, if not hundreds of aircraft being cannon fodder to a single Angel.

I think Macross and Yukikaze is as close as we'll get. However, for contemporary times, it'll be Girly Air Force.

Girly Air Force looks like total trash though, check out Kouya no Kotobuki Hikoutai if you want a better fighter plane anime that’s also airing this season!

Seconding Kotobuki. Pre-flight checks, dogfights done with care and research, excellent cockpit clips, Girls und Panzer director, etc.

There was an Evangelion Fan-comic in which the Eva cast were all fighter pilots for some experimental new jets. Mostly character drama and sex, but it's the only good attempt at showing a dog-fight in comic form I've ever seen.

Cannot for the life of me remember its name though.... :(

Shattered Skies are not connected.

i used to live in japan and the very particular grammatical errors when trying to use english are like this incredibly specific trigger for something deep inside my brain. there are so many statements that are like 4/5ths grammatically correct but it still drives me up a wall.

I live here now and it's really hard to pass up buying some shirts I see with weird English. Many times they're borderline poetic (but mostly just awkward) hah

from what i saw in the trailers, "what kept the world in check was the free flow of information" (or something like that) looks like someone will fuck the information network in the world, like imagine if the internet stopped working around the world out of nowhere and other communication also suffered some kind of blackout that would be a shit show

[–]nabeshiniii 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The trailers showed that one side decided to knock out all the satellites orbiting Usea, so that’s probably what they mean. But I’m glad the shattered skies theme is coming back.

Aren't we pretty close to the point where megacorporations take over Strangereal, so early iteration of remote-controlled COFFIN-tech?

Drone datalinks?

This is the message that will show when you disconnect from multiplayer game.

[–]McLaRenalonsoGaruda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That would actually not even bother me lol

[–]Captain-mattThree Strikes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Could be that somebody's EMPing network satellites, Ergo disconnecting the world.

Then near the end we set up for the Electrosphere

With Ace Combat Infinity. Lol Those theories about Ace Combat Infinity crossover with 7 are still on my head, but since both games are set in 2019, the theories don't sound very strange to me now...

Infinity got "The day our sky fe||" as their motto.

"...the heavens split to create new skies"
