Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown Launch Trailer
- Thread starter Dancrane212
- Start date
that it's actually pretty damn good(And a separate storyline) but it's super short.
Have they said what the reasoning is? I assume it is a necessary compromise due to the additional hardware demands of VR. (Less planes in the sky, less ground detail, ...)
The song doesn't really mix well with the action being shown, but I'm excited for it anyway.
In what planet is Ace Combat an AAA game? At least you will support it I guess.
War Thunder(a much lower requirement flight game) announced PSVR years ago, still haven't gotten it in or last I checked even discussed it further.
It was originally discussed as having it for launch even.

EBGames giving a bonus AC7 pin for orders. Now we're talking.
Devs have talked in separate interviews about using the Pro/X for to get better FPS and resolution but nothing concrete.
The base consoles run with an unlocked frame rate in the 40s and they've said they're just "focusing" on frame rate. The game isn't labeled at X Enhanced at all so looks like they're just not bothering and letting it brute force to 1080/60. There is a single interview that mentioned higher resolutions on Pro/X but every other interview and the lack of the Enhanced label I'm doubting it. Which is frustrating because I want to get the game but I'm not going to get it if they're not even going to bother to Enhance it.
Not sure what they're thinking here. The whole "focusing on a smoother frame rate" is such BS as the game is just running at an uncapped frame rate. It's no different than games running with uncapped frame rates from well before the X/Pro were out.

Hope isn't lost just yet. This is the cover the Australian EB Games is using for online listings.
Though it has HDR listed so who knows. PS4 PAL region boxes are missing the Pro signifier but that's not always a telltale sign of support.

Anyone know what the difference is between the flight stick for this game ( https://www.amazon.com/Combat-Hotas-Flight-Stick-PlayStation-4/dp/B01A0P8NBC ) and a regular HOTAS 4 ( https://www.amazon.com/Thrustmaster-T-Flight-Hotas-Flight-playstation-4/dp/B015PJ68BK )? Other than price I mean.
The most obvious differences are that the Thrustmaster one does not have force feedback and the HORI one does not officially support the PC.
Are you sure of that? Because the amazon listing suggests otherwise:
I didn't see that image before. This is the first time I've seen a reference to PC with this stick. But it wouldn't surprise me if it works as the PS4 dualshock is supported by steamworks and other games.Are you sure of that? Because the amazon listing suggests otherwise:
Pretty good launch trailer and I'm excited for my first Ace Combat in years.
Gotta wait an extra week for the PC release but I don't mind with all the games in the next few months.

VR is indeed exclusive to PS4 / PSVR.

Regarding that. All I can say is that Thrustmaster joysticks are fairly high quality.
It is awesome. I've only played one mission (which I think was cut short in the demo booth at PAX Aus). Amazing fun. Cockpits are very detailed, graphics good overall, sound was great. Takeoff lacked a bit of urgency/atmosphere but that was my only gripe. So good to track a plane fly past and turn and watch, roll and loop and chase through clouds.
It's a timed exclusive to PS VR for 12 months.
According to the latest Official PlayStation Magazine it is 5 missions, not 3 previously reported.
It includes a free flight mode.
And there is an Air Show Mode where you stand on the deck of an aircraft carrier and watch formations fly past.
