No, I did some crazy turns and spins. I felt it slightly but fine considering.
It really is amazing. -

Registered 7 years agoPlayed that for far too many hours than is healthy for a 36 year old tonight. What a brilliant game.
Quite a quick install from disc, didn't appear to have to download anything big - great to see these days.
Graphics are lovely on 1x. I have a 4K 50" TV, and the image is slightly soft actually on that screen, although I don't mind that. The lighting and weather effects are brilliant. Clouds, lightning, rain, and actual turbulence. Really immersive.
It feels like 60 fps on this system to me, if it's actually 55 as reported I can't really notice, it feels extremely smooth. Love the high-G manoevres, can't remember if these have featured in other instalments I've played.
Story is the usual bonkers nonsensical anime guff, a nice change from the dudebro stylings of the last entry though'
Free flight is nice. Spent a good few minutes just pottering around in the Starfighter over the map that looks like the UK with none of the megaviolence just for the joy of flight and looking around. I used to do a bit of Airfix modelling and stuff as a kid so having a game that is even a caricature of jet flight on console is brilliant. It's been too long.
Too many Sukhois though. -

It certainly is repetitive. You dogfight, 80% of the time. 20% of the time, you hit ground targets.

It's utterly brilliant, if you like that sort of thing. -

I keep failing mission 5, and I have no idea why. 7 minutes on the clock, 1 target left. It almost feels like a bug.
Combined with the complete lack of checkpoints which means it takes me 15 minutes even to get to that point, I a somewhat annoyed. -

Shoot him down. -
@brokenkey Heh, no, the next one, actually. .gif)
I guess something gets destroyed by a bomb or something but it‘s not communicated at all. Just get a „mission failed“ rather unceremoniously, every single time. Stuck there for 2 hours now. -

Registered 6 years agoYeah, is it just me, or does "restart from checkpoint" pretty much just mean "restart"?
That's been the case for me, though, to be fair, I've only actually played two missions, and spent more time directing the replays... -

UncleLou, which mission exactly ? Can't be 5 (444) surely ? Only thing I could guess at would be the bombers are doing too much damage to the base, so prioritise them. -

Registered 6 years agoAnd it finally becomes clear why we need all the shouting in here...
I'm kinda purposefully avoiding the VR for the moment; as decks said, it'll possibly have a detrimental effect on my enjoyment of the full game (much like firewall has sort of broken any FPS for me).
I didn't really buy it for that anyways (though, obviously, I'd have been all over a full game of it), I just love the series.
Might well leave it until I've completed the campaign (so by the time I get to it there'll be a full ps5 PSVR v2 release). -

Registered 14 years agoWhat camera view are you all using? I can't settle between third or first person (not cockpit).
All the older ACs first person was a no brainer, but third is pretty nice now.
Also expert controls or GTFO -

Cockpit, always cockpit! -
Expert controls, cockpit view (yes, even with the planes that result in, like, half the screen being obscured), helmet on, visor down, top gun soundtrack playing in the kitchen (still awesome).
I'm probably also naked. Anything goes when the visor goes down.
