F-35 a shit plane.
4th for F-4, assuring local air supremacy over Sukhois.
>>148341492
The F-35 could kick your planefu's ass though
>>148341984
My planefu is the F-22.
>F-35 fags this delusional.
>>148341597
8th for WW1/early WW2 soviet training methods.
>>148342636
That exercise happened in 2010.
>>148342161
Tbh until the f-22 gets the level of sensor fusion that the f-35 has the f-35 still wins, even moreso outside 1v1
Seeing as I'm too retarded to read the thread I'll just repeat again
Any of you know how to remove excess glue spillage?
Any of you working on any model?
>>148343391
Use fine grit sandpaper to remove excess glue.
>>148343319
Kinematic performance aside, the F-35 is significantly less stealthy than the F-22, and both sides have LPI radars.
This means that if both sides use their radar, the F-22 will be able to target and attack the F-35 first.
Reminder that the F-22 production was halted in part because of the Growler.
>>148343538
Would 150 grit be good enough?
>>148346117
Try it. As long as you're not removing model detail it should be fine.
The existence of infinity puts me off the entire series after 6 to be honest.
I still like AHL but infinity leaves a horrible taste in my mouth.
>>148344440
Sure, maybe in a 1v1. But in a realistic environment, the ability to synthesize readings from multiple radars on different craft is a pretty big edge
>>148347737
That's just moving the goalposts.
>>148347106
>but infinity leaves a horrible taste in my mouth.
Why or in what sense? Just the jew system?
>>148349140
Jew fuel + Muh Strangereal + Being generally toleratedyes, it's probably autism. Something about shoehorning Strangereal setpieces into real life bothers me. It makes it feel even more like a Jewish cashgrab.
Since my PS3 is out of commission right now, I'd like to ask for help from one of you kind anons. Long story short, I'm making a tool for Infinity, and I need help making sure I have all the gifs for the Sp.Weapons. I'll be posting the ones I have, the file name telling what weapon they correspond to. If I'm missing any, or one of them applies to multiple weapons, please tell me.
>>148349271
I disagree, but your reasons are understandable. Although the real life setting of Joint Assault was fine, Assault Horizon really sullied it. I don't mind the way they are doing it, though, since it lets them vary and change some things to the location. e.g. Avalon Dam having 2 tunnels instead of 1, Stonehenge being much more involved, the AssHorizon locations having much more color. Besides, with the Ulysses meteor strike and gameplay, this might as well be Strangereal in everything but name, shape, and history pre-1994.
>>148349271
I can speak to the general tolerance, at least in /aceg/, as the result of a lack of viable alternatives
6 has godawful netcode, AH's servers are all offline, not like it was worth much to begin with, and JA is a portable title with all that entails
>>148343187
And?
>>148352120
How is JA with PPSSPP?
>>148352784
To be completely honest I don't miss Strangereal except for the geographic features. Every game that was set in in save for AC3 had either no story or generally something "so bad it's actually really awful" based on IRL events twisted to make them incredibly onesided.
>>148353026
You andyourselfbuddy
>>148353260
Come again?
>>148353026
I dunno, I feel like that - intentionally or not - helps the thing.
Like you can look at the Belkan war as "oh no, Belka are being so mean" but if you actually look into some of the preceding events instead of taking the most surface-level approach, it's not like Osea isn't being a total bastard too. Many of the surrounding areas were asking for it. Ustio is one of the few that's actually just an innocent area seeking self-determination.
(AND RATIO: GIVE BACK THAT USTIO CLAY YOU THIEVING SMELLY GYPSIES)
>>148353414
One thing I really appreciated from Zero was the fact that there was the possibility of incapacitating pilots without downing them. That split moment of hesitation you get when a plane's target turns yellow is amazing. It helps make you feel like you're fighting against people who happen to be enemies in this situation instead of just "The Big, Bad, Evil Guy."
AC04 would have had the same villainization issue AC5 had with the Belkan Grey Men had it not been for details like learning about Yellow Squadron, the hesitating pilot in Escort, and seeing the state Farbanti was left in after the Ulysses hit.
>>148352954
>>148354016
I forget, was 5 the rushed one?
5 seems to have a lot of the building blocks for a sad story, but sort of cop out towards the end by making Belkans unambiguously evil (instead of say, just wanting back South Belka.) so that you can feel bad about killing Yuktobanians.
>>148353414
>taking the most surface-level approach
Yeah, that's the thing, the games give you little info other than the Soviet Union tier propaganda that is shoved down your mouths. If you want to see the "real" story you have to google translate japanese shit, some of which IIRC doesn't even exist anymore.
>>148354142
I don't know about rushed since it came out little over 4 years after 04, but yeah, the Gray Men really needed more humanization. Hamilton had ever so slight characterization, with genuine rage and resentment behind his words in ACES, but that needed justification.
>>148354465
I haven't read much outside material besides Pixy working for ISAF, but I think the Zero does a pretty good job of justifying all sides and giving them all some fault. The only thing 04 would've had to mention was Erusea being forced to deal with all these incoming refugees after Ulysses hit and it would've been perfect.
>>148354016
>>148354967
Doesn't 4 also leave it ambiguous that Erusea was fascist before the crisis?
>>148355134
The people of San Salvacion, including the narrator and maybe some of your fellow pilots, called them Fascists, but I don't think that's really delved into. I don't think it's mentioned in any briefing, is it? Speaking of, is the guy who gives the briefings given a name, title, or even a position?
>>148354967
Plane list for the RPG now includes:
MiG-21M, MiG-21 Bison, Mirage IIIC, Mirage 3NG, Mirage F1, Mirage F1CT, Mirage 2000C, Mirage 2000-5 Mk.2, Mirage 2000D, Nesher, Kfir C.2, Kfir C.7, F-105D, F-105G, F-5A, F-5E, F-20, Su-17M, Su-17UM4, F-8E, XF8U-3, F-4C, EF-4C, F-4E, F-4G, F-4X, Super Phantom, AJ-37, AJS-37, JA-37D, J-10A, J-10B, F-16A Block 15, F-16C Block 50, F-16XL, F-16F Block 60, MiG-29S, MiG-29M, MiG-35D, F/A-18A, F/A-18C, F/A-18D, A-10A, A-10C, Su-25, Su-25ST, Su-25SM, A-6E, EA-6B ADVCAP, MiG-23M, MiG-23MLD, MiG-23-98, MiG-27, Su-24, Su-24M2, Tornado IDS, Tornado ADV F2, Tornado ADV F3, MiG-25, MiG-25P, MiG-25PDSL(M), MiG-25BM, F-14A, F-14D, ST-21, ASF-14, F-15A, F-15C, F-15 STOL/MTD, F-15E, F-15SA, F-15SE, MiG-31M, F/A-18F, EA-18G, Su-27S, Su-27SM2, Su-37, Su-35, Su-34, Su-47, PAK-FA, SAAB Gripen, Rafale C, Eurofighter Typhoon, F-35A, F-35B, F-35C, YF-23, F-22.
Anything I'm missing?
>>148354967
>I think the Zero does a pretty good job of justifying all sides and giving them all some fault
If you don't know anything about Prussia and Germany it only makes Belka look like they deserve everything they get.
>>148356856
Props
If you compare them, absolutely. However, I'm talking about the game's own merits.
>>148356970
>>148357449
And so am I. Osea and Yuktobania come off as imperialistic, opportunistic shitstains only if you start drawing parallels with real life, and fill the huge gaps left by the games with real life stuff.
>>148357594
I do remember the game making that implication during the course of the game, for example, Brett Thompson saying the treaty made after the nukes set off heavily favored OSEA, and Gault Squadron saying the negotiations were all a squabble over who gets the larger slice of pie.
>>148357449
>>148356856
BAe Hawk
>>148357594
Even with just the in-game data, Osea comes across as exploitative.
I forget if the game explicitly uses the words "taking advantage of the situation" but it definitely shows territory ceded to Osea.
Yuktobania seems less imperialist in all this, being too far away to gain territory, and more of a "Why are you even here except to build up WW2 parallels?"
>>148356856
Amx
>>148358742
>Yuktobania: Why are you even here?
Was there even a Yuktobanian who joined A World With No Boundaries?
>>148358297
>>148359189
I believe there was at least one. I think you shoot them down over Avalon.
>>148359189
I need to look that up then.

>whines about autism
ok
>>148358742
That is if you listen to the Belkans, which ACZ threats as sore losers that would say anything for making themselves look better, and AC5 threats as just pure psychopaths.
>>148365782
I'm talking about the OBC documentary, actually.
Their graphics show Belka cede territory before the war, because Osea is taking advantage of internal troubles (We can assume good faith on the part of Ustio, etc, as self-determination, but Osea's just being greedy unless those lands are culturally/ethnically Osean anyway.)
Post-war this is rubbed in even more if North Osea is governed from Oured officially, instead of just being a puppet state. (The political status of North Osea still confuses me, whether it was annexed, made a semi-autonomous region of Osea, or just cut off from Belka as a new state.)
>>148366049
Judging by the Osean flag, North Osea became a state of Osea proper
>>148363393
Aaaaand here's the last one I have. Again, if I'm missing any, please inform me which ones.
>>148366049
>I'm talking about the OBC documentary, actually.
Well now I have an excuse for replaying both AC5 and ACZ. But still, I'm really strongly convinced that if you didn't know what the Belkan war was based the game would come off as extremely onesided 'murikan stand in wanking.
Also I'm pretty sure they got annexed and got ruled with an iron fist.
>>148366301
While we're here, would you mind uploading them into our mega?
For some reason SPW short animations feel soothing.
>>148366906
Yeah sure, although I'm pretty sure I'm missing quite a few, specifically the ones like the ESM, the ones from special planes like the ADMM, EML, MSTM, stuff like that.
>>148366350
*what the Belkan war was based on
That said all this talk about AC's plot makes me really sad that we will never get a new game that goes back to the arcade roots.
Any of you read the salvation war?
It opens up with a pretty sweet engagement between super hornets andliteral demons

GATE was worse because it was NIPPONSTRONK fanwank.
Salvacion war is more H:FY.
>>148370013
Come on, the F4 scenes were gold
>>148370080
So that makes Salvation War better because it's EVERYONE STRONK fanwank?
GATE at least had decent character interaction and development.
>>148370250
Quit being a weeb
>>148370406
But I'm not. A weeaboo thinks EVERYTHING from Japan is superior.
I know from experience that their cars are shit.
>>148370250
GATE at least had decent character interaction and development.
I can't directly refute you, since I didn't watch the anime, but I am high skeptical of that claim.
Could you perhaps show some examples or otherwise demonstrate that "GATE at least had decent character interaction and development." While the Salvation War series did not?
>>148370558
I didn't watch the anime, just read the comics.
I mean, it's nothing too fancy or great, no feat of literature art or such shit, but it's there whereas Salvation War kinda just was there.
>>148370737

>>148370080
salvation war on the other hand is MERIKASTRONK fanwank.

It became utter shit. This place is heaven by comparison. Hell even the worst general that you can think of that isn't part the living cancers (eg, /ksg/) was better than /mgg/.
>>148371427
Was it nuked off /vg/ or did they all agree on pulling the plug?
>>148371591
That I don't know, I left weeks if not months ago. But if you really hate yourself you're free to look it up on Fireden, assuming it didn't die again.
>>148370910
It seems like you never even read the material. It's explicitly a multinational effort with tons of screen time by characters who aren't american.

God damn that was cringe-tier, but it was at least fun.
>tfw you will never crusade the cosmos to unite all races that have ever been or ever will be under a glorious empire
>>148377032
The same could be said about the collab planes and emblems but they need to have challenges in rotation to keep it from getting too stale.
>>148369495
Considered reading it until findinding the author autism about something.
I can't even remember what. Something like Book 2 going up on pirate bay, leading him to talk about how he expects a return on investment and so on. It was written in a way that put me off bothering.
>>148379042
The publisher he had lined up dropped his book because it wound up on pirate bay.
>>148379993
How does that even work?
(I'm assuming that either it was already available for free, or that someone he sent a pre-publication copy of it leaked it, but in the case of the former why is TPB beyond the pale?)
>>148380174
It was available for free, and still is I believe since the author gave up trying to publish it after that.
I can only assume as part of the print publishing deal, the author would withdraw or take down the free version once the book went to press. Once the author was no longer able to do that, the publisher decided not to invest in it.
>>148380485
>I can only assume as part of the print publishing deal, the author would withdraw or take down the free version once the book went to press.
That seems remarkably scuttlingly Jewish.
>>148380712
Why?
>>148380869
Trying to charge for something that used to be free, and removing a free option to force people towards the paid one.
Sure, it's his thing to do with as he pleases in legal terms, but that doesn't make it any less Jewish.
>>148381073
Gotta make a living, and publishers don't like it when a free alternative exists
>>148381073
How would you feel about the matter if the author wrote the book, and then sold it without ever allowing his fans to read it as it was written?
>>148381283
>Gotta make a living
This justification doesn't fly when it was free in the first place.
>>148381312
If I'm reading the question right, that would just be the standard procedure for creating a book.
That's nowhere near as Jewish as going "Okay, you can read this for free... Oh, you like it? Well then, I'm going to take it offline and if you ever want to see it again you'll open your wallet :^) "
>>148381497
So if you create something, and share it with people without charging for it, you should never be able to profit from it?
>>148381906
You're a kike if you try to lock it away again. That doesn't prevent merchandising or inserting adverts (still pretty Jewish desu.)
Direct sales of books is not the only way to profit from something you've written.furthermore, the focus on ((profit)) speaks for itself.
>>148379036
At this point, would that really matter? There are enough challenges for a fucking lifetime, all of them forcing you to vary your mission locations, playstyles, planes, weapons, and between Co-op and TDM.
>>148382090
Your worldview has piqued my curiosity, anon.
If you don't mind, could I inquire as to how old you are, what nationality you are, what you do for a living, and how you identify politically, if at all?
>>148382475
Dafuq?
>>148382475
22/USA/Student*/Trump
Partially memeing when it comes to comparing profit to Jewishness in itself, but it's Jewish as fuck to want to start charging for things that used to be free. Even if he'd just made the next chapter paid, that'd be fine. Trying to take away something that was once free crosses the line into being a kike.
*Prior to College, worked part time at memedonalds.
Like I say in serious terms: There's nothing wrong with wanting to make money from your work, but don't give away a story for free then expect to take it back later. Not only is it ((Jewish)), it's stupid (as he found out when his book wound up on TPB because lol copypaste.)
>>148383072

I saw the DLC list for AC6 just now for the first time...I think I want to barf right now.
>>148387536
The funny thing is the PA even removed some of the skins they used to give out for free. They made other skins free in turn.
Also, making people pay for more maps is the dumbest shit ever if you want to keep a game alive.
>>148387661
That's one of the things that baffles me. Why the fuck would you remove skins from the marketplace?! For what reason?! And what is with this Capcom-level jewery?! Why has the price for these "planes"(skins) not gone down? Why is there no $10 pack to just get everything? Why is there no "definitive" edition that comes with all DLC? By the way, how many skins does each plane get without DLC?

Since those canucks keep banging on about the Avrow Arrow, I decided to stat it up in the RPG on a lark, see how it compares with other planes. The results are surprising.
By comparing the weighted airframe metascore, (Ignoring avionics using my own janky and probably unrealistic formula), in the RPG at least, the Avrow Arrow would be equal or superior to the following planes:
Avrow Arrow - 60
F-35B - 60
Tornado ADV F2 - 59
Su-24M2 - 57
MiG-27 - 53
MiG-23-98 - 60
MiG-23MLD-57
MiG-23M - 54
EA-6B - 52
A-6E - 48
Su-25SM - 57
Su-25T - 55
Su-25 - 53
F/A-18D - 60
F/A-18C - 59
F/A-18A - 58
F-16C Block 50 - 58
F-16A Block 15 - 55
JA-37D - 59
AJS-37 - 58
AJ-37 - 52
F-4E - 58
EF-4C - 55
F-4C - 54
F-8E - 56
Su-17UM4 - 60
Su-17M - 56
F-20 - 54
F-5E - 44
F-5A - 43
F-105G - 49
F-105D - 48
Nesher - 48
Mirage F1CT - 56
Mirage F1 - 52
Mirage 3NG - 56
Mirage IIIC - 47
MiG-21 Bison - 53
MiG-21M - 44

Basically I just needed a formula to consistently determine how much an aircraft should cost, and roughly compare aircraft. Hence this.

>>148393425
>'' are abstracted stats
>>148393694
Yeah, take maneuverability for example.
For the game, I want a single stat for maneuverability. Makes things simple on the user end.
On the back end to arrive at a single number to compute the in game value, you need to look at several real world stats, such as:
thrust to weight ratio w/50% fuel
wing loading w/50% fuel
drag ratio
rate of climb
instantaneous turn rate @FL200 w/50% fuel
instantaneous turn radius @FL200 w/50% fuel
Sustained G @FL200 w/50% fuel
Sustained turn rate @FL200 w/50% fuel
sustained turn radius @FL200 w/50% fuel
instantaneous turn rate @ corner V w/50% fuel
instantaneous turn radius @ corner V w/50% fuel
sustained G @ cornerV w/50% fuel
sustained turn rate @ cornerV w/50% fuel
sustained turn radius @ cornerV w/50% fuel
Of course, all of these will change as you go through the flight regime, but I'm not trying to make a simulation here, just relatively accurate as compared to other aircraft.
>>148393437
I wasn't aware, which is the case right now.
>>148395062
And youve been here how long?
Fuck man your blind as fuck
>>148392447
How much have you done of AC5 so far? Gotten all planes yet?
>>148394801
Jesu cristo. And you've figured all this out for how many planes by now?
>>148395310
I was aware of the jewery in Infinity. I didn't know the jewery was THIS bad in AC6.
>>148395362
Currently there are 90 planes statted in the RPG.
The majority of them have a less detailed and more abstracted maneuverability stat, as it's difficult for me to find the necessary information for a lot of the planes to get a complete picture.

What should/will the protags canon plane be in AC7? I personally think it's time for either the YF-23 or the F-15 Active to get a chance to shine. However, I feel it's either gonna be the F-22 (again) or something like the F-15SE or maybe even (god forbid) a Sukhoi.
>>148398904
>maybe even (god forbid) a Sukhoi.
Doesn't NEMO canonically fly a future variant?
>>148399182
That last part was sarcastic. Scarface and Rena also fly Flankers.
>>148399312
Ah.
Well. Maybe we'll see some other country's high-end shit as the choice.Most likely going to be an F-whatever again though.
>>148399615
Hell, I wouldn't mind some self-wankery if the ATD was made the canon plane.
>>148398904
Maybe his plane is gonna be the Advanced Super Hornet
>>148398904
After the weather superweapon creates a electromagnetic super thunderstorm that disables all the fly by wire and fancy computer stuff of modern planes, the protagonist will be forced to pull the sheets off their old F-4...

>>148402292
>this is actually a thing
Dude, having a protag use a Hornet as the canon plane would be sick. I'm not gonna lie though, that name sounds kinda retarded. Why not just the Advanced Hornet?
>>148402941
Because Super Duper Hornet was one of the alternatives and nobody will take that seriously
>>148402716
>this happens
>instead of an F-4, the protag uses afishbed
>>148403221
<<Super Duper Hornets! Don't laugh too hard, keep your guard up!>>
Why not the Advanced Super Tomcat?
>>148403221
I non-ironically want an F/A-18 variant to be called this.

>>148423062
All naval Phantoms have shorter noses than the air force models.
>>148432818
Any particular reason why?
>>148432681
>F/A-18Z Advanced Super Duper Mega Ultra Ultimate Hornet Latte never ever
>>148433358
Most airforce models have a gun, which actually decreases radar range.
>>148433480
Speaking of airframe upgrades, how is the MiG-35? Seems like a neat plane.
>>148435587
What about the AF ones without guns? Do they not have longer noses?

What's this RPG every now and then is mentioned?
>>148435873
Depends on what model radar is in the nose. F-4G replaces the gun with EW gear. RF-4Cs have cameras in the nose.
>>148436681
I was thinking of the early air-force versions (which spawned the nongunz meme in Vietnam.)
Did they have the same nose as USN versions, or some other excuse to lengthen them?

If you guys are looking for information on aircraft, particular more obscure variants, my go to first look source is http://www.airvectors.net
That's where I got a lot of the info for the RPG from, and apparently where wikipedia steals a lot of its stuff.

If the 27 was beat by age old Phantoms, how you reckon the piece f shit 37 is going to beat anything even marginally better than the F4?
A question for people who play Infinity:
Do you guys like how the game differentiates between fighters, attackers, and multiroles through different damage multipliers between air and ground targets?
>tfw having a dream about a new AC7 trailer and it involves shoot at fighters with a mini gun mounted on top of an aigion
>>148402941
Because 'super hornet' is already a retarded name since it's a 80% totally redesigned model that superficially looks like the old one. So an advanced model of the sh would be even more retarded to call it an advanced hornet.

Says something along the lines of "MiG-25 best turn fighter of WWIII and onwards, NATO and western shitbricks literally cannot compete with our glorious THICC af brick, fuck the Blackbird.
>>148466090
It'd be nice to know what the "Adattamento ECM" block says.
>>148466276
Not really tho
>>148466428
I'll just do a quick summary of every section in a little bit
The intruction mentions that the Foxbat-F was specifically made for the european scenario.
It was the "Wild Weasel" version for aerial suppression capable of mounting Kh58 anti-radiation missles.
The prototype's first flight was in 1976, but it took a long time for it to intruced in service.
Second paragraph is about it having fake painted grey radomes to have it look identical to the Mig-25 PD, the interceptor one.
Meanwhile the Mig-25BM lacks the head-mounted radome, translating into a sharper front with a characteristic triangular protrusion beneath it.
Third part is about Mig-25 being already safe from ground-to-air attacks due to the high-altitude flight protecting it and that the BM variant was just another layer of security added.
It still had an hard time to get into service definitely and when it did it was only after some years after the production ended.
The last part says that the Mig-25 BM recieved a longer front to house the new electronic warfare equipment and emission detection.
The antennae configuration recalls that one of the Mig-25RBK.
I'm pretty tired so I could have been kinda unclear in some parts, in any case just ask me for clarifications if you need to.
>>148468421
Thanks.
Has everyone given the fuck up on Infinity?
Not even talking about /aceg/, but the players literally disappeared after the RTDM. Didn't play for 2 days, tried to join rooms for 1h and couldn't find anything but "beginners welcome" rooms I'd be kicked before picking my fuel and 8p rooms that never got full.Had a power outage when hosting this Monday so I'm not sure if i'm still being penalized for "quitting", but this shit is damn weird
>>148471434
Yeah, it does seem kinda quiet. I'm around 1800, but mostly see only rooms with hosts that have MR around 2400 or 1400
>>148471434
Well, I had that problem yesterday. All I could find was 3 same rooms over and over.
