[360] Ace Combat 6 (More homosexual than Top Gun) (Fuck you, high-low fives are awesome)

Everyone was in F-22s and SU-47s, plus although some point differences exist, it's not 10 kills worth of point differences in there. (Each kill gives you an average of 1000 points, so a 10000 boost is kinda, uh, large).

There's nowhere I can't reach.

or shot one of the flak cannons, which were worth a little bit of points. I really don't know. We'll have to experiment to see.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

The flightstick? Exactly like the last one, so pretty fucking awesome.

It's a hori product, so you more than most should know what that means for quality. It's responsive and after 5 minutes you'll be flying like a pro.

I don't have a chatpad, but it looks like it's got the full integration plug there, so I dunno if you could use or attach peripherals outside of just the mic.

Edit: I swear to God why can't you save multiplayer replays. They'd be the only ones worth saving, too. >=(

Most amazing jew boots

I LOVE HATE how broken the CFA-44 makes multiplayer.

That damn EML cannon is fucking hilarious. Pretty much the antithesis of the XLAA using faggots, but it feels so CHEAP. Rip off two shots, down an asshole. No talent required. While funny, completely god damn BUSTED too.

Should not be an option in multi, regardless.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Well, you can't use the rape rockets online, only the giant sniper cannons, so that makes it a tiny bit less broken than it could have been.

Only a tiny bit though.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Hey russ, how's that machine gun only thing workin for you?

Mission 9's attack angles prove...troublesome.

FELIPE NO

I am not looking forward to the end of mission 13, or the early parts of mission 15.

I tried a machine gun only free mission run of mission 9 just to see something, and it's not the allied attack shit that's troublesome. On normal, when you don't have a core to attack or a cockpit to shoot at for the smaller battleships, it's easy enough to match airspeed and strafe the engines.

What IS troublesome, is the fucking Aigion's cockpit. The attack angle is all super messed up. You have to come at it from an angle nearly parallel to the Z-axis and attack it from underneath, coming upwards.

What will be stupid is the end of mission 13, the beginning timed portions of mission 12, the final dogfight where you lack allied support in mission 11, and the drone takedowns in mission 7. Mission 15 is something that's relatively easy to do with guns, most of the time when I do it I use the damn things to strafe the shit out of giant cannon anyway. Just save two volleys of allied fire for those bullshit AA towers and you'll be fine.

I'm thinking a machine gun run will be 80 times easier in either the CFA-44 or the F-22/SU-47, simply because using an attacker to machine gun at some of those points will be...well, it'll be more annoying than anything else.

Perhaps. I know russ said he wasn't that great with them, but I still feel it's cheap. It's definitely not HARD to hit a guy with 'em. Especially at close range.

As for matches, it seems the only thing people ever make are team games. Never any fuckin' free-for-alls. Like, ever. And I've only ever come across two siege battles. Co-op is there occasionally though. Drop your gamertag and I'll try helping you with 'em? Or just add me. "Colonel Skills"

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Well, yeah, you sort of had to go that way. There's no other way of doing it. The angle with the guns is much steeper though due to no splash and no course correction.

Like this:




Jam it back in, in the dark.

I like how it's totally to scale too.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

In before Taco masturbating.

Firefly, did you ever get in on the play with Devs day on Thursday? Me and Tails spent the better part of 2 hours playing with some QA guys and some producers. It was fun.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Ah, some supreme shit wrecking in multi tonight. That was fun. You got me really good a couple of times there, Firefly. DN also out of nowhere with a pair of really good kills. Should have stuck with the 33 for that match with the randoms though.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Whoa whoa whoa, hold on a second.

What.

How ya doing, buddy?
