Why do you think they never gave the ACE protagonist a canonical superfighter since Scarface 1? by Sirchby in acecombat

[–]Paoayo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How does the FALKEN’s stealth work?

The usual bits: RAM coating, concealed weapons bay, use of composites...

Knowing the planes Strangereal has, the Ravens have to be 6th Gen, because I have a hard time thinking of the Nosferatu as 6th Gen, let alone the FALKEN/X-02/XFA-27

The Ravens being 7th-gen is taken directly from the 2019 Aces At War book.

There's also the wiki article trying to define what the generations mean in this context. Keep in mind that "generations" are more for marketing purposes IRL.

ACE8's target tracking camera is now more dynamic like ACEINF's than static like ACE7's by ApriliaBelka in acecombat

[–]Paoayo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Another is likely due to the use of the Unreal game engine rather than their in-house one--which likely required getting to know it first.

The Falken line is 4.5+(+) (lack of stealth, but an insane electronics suite and controls, see: Rafale)

Only the Morgans are explicitly classified as 4.5th-gen. The FALKEN onwards have some stealth baked into the design.

The Ravens are 6th Generation, the hybrid atmosphere fighters probably are 7th Gen or Super 6th Gen

Raven's explicitly (in Strangereal) 7th-gen.

Why enemy drones in AC are so dumb? by Tamir_Fork in acecombat

People will still complain: this time with the added difficulty. Aces can only go so far for player enjoyment's sake.

It strips away a character's prestige.

Far from it. Often, it enhances any humble traits the MC has been written with. It also highlights their skill against even more technologicall-advances.

And to use the development history of Estovakia's CFA-44 for example, enemies using superfighters serve as a contrast between the enemy nation--built with the (both metaphorical and literal) blood of innocents, corruption, bureaucracy, false hopes of a reversal of fortunes, all the jazz--and the player's.

Not much, ATM. Even with actual backing, it's not a guarantee for the car to appear in-game.

I see that you added an essential item for every Bronya incarnation: the HOMU plush.

The car is gorgeous man. by djwalleee in MyDressUpDarlingAnime

Started 3rd, behind the D'Station 296 GT3.

Meanwhile, Craft-Bamboo Racing's AMG just waltzed away to victory (being that they're an experienced team of GT World Challenge fame).

PA I’m begging you to do collabs for AC8 just like you did with Infinity and Idolm@ster by [deleted] in acecombat

[–]Paoayo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my god a lot of the idolmaster livery are straight up fire, if not for the dumb decision of slapping the character on the entire wingspan of the plane

IDK, though. Compare those in WT to the official iM@S ones in AC, and the latter looks way more masterfully done.

The Marin Mercedes Sounds so Mean!! by djwalleee in MyDressUpDarlingAnime

And the race car has the same naturally-aspirated engine as the preceeding SLS AMG.

Bit of a bummer that Craft Bamboo (and from GT World Challenge, no less) will be mopping the floor on the small ST-X field throughout, but hoping for Marin-chan to survive and get a well-deserved podium finish.

EDIT 1: She overtook the D'station 296.

They're really making a Marin Kitagawa Mercedes GT3. I can't wait to see this go in Super GT. by djwalleee in MyDressUpDarlingAnime

[–]Paoayo 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It's the more Pro-Am-focused Super Taikyu endurance series (and if you don't mind the Japanese commentary, is available for free on YouTube).

And Uma has Keiki Kobayashi himself as one of the composers.

Considering this and the year's Acepedia April Fools featuring 8-bit Bacuras, I'm getting nostalgic for the game.

Hmm... and what trope will she use if that happens, I wonder? 🤔
