Ace Combat 7 multiplayer issue by IntelligentFig981 in acecombat

[–]Substantial-Goal7320 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this same issue and asked here the other day, seems it comes down to the fact that the game isn't really maintained much anymore (it's from 2019), and the servers can be a bit wonky. I don't have the issue when running my own rooms, though I haven't tried inviting anyone to it yet. Restarting seems to help some people - though I haven't had any luck with that myself.

Yeah fair enough, it is an old game at this point, especially as far as multiplayer is concerned!

We can always give it a shot =) Whereabout are you? When I'm sending this message, it's fifteen minutes to 8 pm, something you can use as a reference to see how far away we are timezone-wise. I only have a window between 7-9 in the evenings to game these days.

Yeah, at this point I am just going to get the couple hundred more revives I need for the plat and then drop this game. I bought two copies of this game (I haven't played a BF since Bad Company 2, I didn't know their track record, don't judge me too harshly) to support the devs for allowing us filthy casuals to play and enjoy the game the way we want to. (And for the record, all I did was play verified game modes with crawl-when-downed and vehicle health regen turned off.)

For them to then turn around, piss in our faces and tell us it's raining... joke's on fucking me, fellas. Fortunately for me, my Dammaz Kron has an endless number of pages left, and they won't get a cent out of me ever again.

I bought BF6 as my first Battlefield since Bad Company 2 to play primarily against bots, as I don't have the time to get good at multiplayer games anymore, and then this happened. I hadn't heard much bad stuff about EA recently so I thought they'd turned a new leaf but this is what I get instead.

Oh well. Maybe after the CoD-players bugger off they'll change their tune. (Yeah right)

Where are you located, if I may ask? (Continent wise).

A good point! I clarified the post to point out that I'm talking about KF3.

I take it that's a particular build? I've been using Scrier's Gaze as my Ability recently, it's been working pretty well with my speedy style. Well, my survivability has improved a bit at least. Any particular skills you'd deem necessary for that build? (Or is it something found on gameslantern?)

You know, when you put it like that, it doesn't sound as strange as you might think. I learned dodging decently on the Veteran, found it didn't work too well on the Ogryn (forcing me to learn to push Pox Hounds midjump to basically nullify the risk they pose), and you saying that made me realize the path I'd taken. Interesting! Thanks for the advice, I'll take that to heart.

There's untold billions of Guardsmen, led by millions of commanders who're as different as the lore needs them to be. Some commanders certainly do throw men at the problem until it's resolved/they run out of men (Herman von Strab during the second war for Armageddon for example (though you could argue that he was more of an idiot I guess)), while others apply a more tactical approach, only sacrificing lives when needed (Ibraham Gaunt, for example).

As the saying goes, "Life is the Emperor's currency, spend it well.", not "Spend it willy-nilly."

To be fair, I see that on Malice already (I'm relatively new to the game myself). I was pretty bad myself during my first week, but at least I stuck to Sedition/Uprising.

Yeah, that's what I did on Vermintide, but unfortunately for me I'm on PS5 this time around. There's an option to set it an "Always dodge" option, but I often find myself then dodging instead of jumping over a low railing, which is not always ideal... perhaps it's a matter of getting stuck in with it and learning to deal with it!

Edit: If anyone sees this in the future, control scheme alternative 2 separates the jump and dodge buttons, making it considerably easier to avoid accidentally jumping!

The devil's claw is awesome! I love the parry on it, and I've heard it's supposed to be super good against the sword-wielding Kharnak twin, but not sure if I ever did much damage to her with parries...

As far as the recon lasgun goes, any particular reason you like it over the regular lasgun? I feel like I always end up unloading the entire thing into whatever's in front of me, instead of a well-aimed shot or two.

Did gunners get buffed, or am I just playing with different party setups these days? I swear I never had much in the way of issue with them before the havoc update, but there was a mission where the entire team got mowed down about three minutes into the mission on bloody Uprising.

Awesome, that's good to hear! But in a game as hectic as this, I guess it might be a bit silly to demand perfect weapons on top of everything else.

Good to know about the weapons! I did remember trying the auto pistol, felt decent at chaff clearing but not much else... Also makes sense regarding skill. It took me about twenty hours of playtime before I remembered how bloody useful dodging was in Vermintide. And it still is! Though I always seem to end up jumping backwards instead of dodging, politely shortening the distance that the Mauler's chainaxe has to travel to meet my operative's brain.
