*_“I decide whether you live or die.”_* -Bandog He meant it.

Guys that did nothing wrong: Trigger Belka Full Band Hell, Even Emmeria.

The cool thing, is if you pay close attention, you can see the red glow of Z.O.E. inside the cockpits of the disguised planes. Also a really cool moment, that the epic music kicks in right about when they form up and start acting like a real squadron for once when crazies in the squadron finally admits that Trigger should have the lead and everything.

this commander of 444 air base really like word solitary

took me WAAAY too long to realize that the mission names were card hands from Poker....

IT'S 8492nd ALL OVER AGAIN

AC7: Solitary confinement

yeah Bandog is prove guilty bandog did that on purpose 1. why he ask where full band is but not the other ? 2. he is laughing the moment full band give his position

When you think about it, a single-seat plane is a flying solitary confinement cell. 13:23 F.

ok we lost brownie champ high roller harling the kestrel 2 and now fullband

444th Squadron Briefer 2019: "YOU! , SOLITARY NOW!" 444th Squadron Briefer 2020 to 2021: "YOU! , QUARANTINE NOW!!!"

I knew it, something is wrong when Bandog is kinda laughing a bit after knowing Full Band's location.

That base Commander in his sleep. *snore* "Solitary..." *snore*

10:00 damn i like that soundtrack

Imagine if, after the formation flight cutscene, a "press X/Y to give commands to your wingmates" prompt appeared.

0:37 That smile turns disappointment. love it.

Kudos @Ace Combat Fan for mentioning the importance of Waiopolo Mountains. AC lore enthusiasts would know by now that the missions, the locations, dates even certain events mentioned are all references to something in prior AC games. Waiopolo Mountains where we destroy radar facilities in AC 7 is essential for AC lore. Fast forward to Ace Combat 3. Waiopolo Mountains is once again the scene and as NEMO of the SARF, you destroy Neucom's Radar facilities in the region which are jamming the nearby General Resource airbase. Now assuming you remain neutral and loyal to UPEO, you would then defend Neucom's airbase from a General Resource Attack. You will not let one corporation take advantage over any other corporation. However, should you choose General Resource path on the first branch, as NEMO you will join the GRDF's attack on the said Neucom airbase. AC 3 Electrosphere doesn't simply serve as a reference point for AC 7. This is a very important location in AC lore and the choices that could set about Usea's future in the the Second Continental War or Lighthouse war, and the Intercorporate war whose setting serves as the Electrosphere's simulation environment.

Are those F-18 Drones? I just noticed the Behind seat is empty and the front Seat looks like an AI that Miahly used

0:47 damn rite son XD

11:30 @Ace Combat Fan Your reaction is the same as mine was this mission. I thought it was Stonehenge too, but it looked way too much like Scinfaxi’s burst missile. Also, sorry this is late, I was staying away from Ace Combat on KZfaq because I wanted to have a blind experience with AC7.

You, solitary now!

11:24 The explosions of those "Helios" missiles are like a mix between the Burst Missile of the Scinfaxi/Hrimfaxi from AC5 and the Gleipnir's SWBM from Skies of Deception, but they are bigger than them and we don't even have to descend or climb. *And... who has Scinfaxi/Hrimfaxi or Gleipnir flashbacks? I have Scinfaxi/Hrimfaxi flashbacks.*

Bandog: "Fullband what your position?" Hmmmmm.....

11:17 Lol.....once he counts down like that....you obviously realize (it's STONEHENGE) your screwed XD

Those "Helios" missiles gave flashbacks from AC6, they are like the Nimbus...and those came from a huge flying fortress too...hmmm

Saab JAS-39E Gripen is a great multirole fighter. It is even a universal combat aircraft, because it can be a fighter, a plane of close support and a reconnaissance machine. Plus modern avionics and has a good price. It is no wonder that it is Brazil that is to replace F-5EM.

Looking back on this mission, Fullband had to die! You've got a prisoner committing what is essentially espionage, imagine what would have happened if word of operation Dragon Breath (Stonehenge defensive) got out to Erusea because of Fullband? It Erusea got their first and destroyed Stonehenge, or worse, took control of it, downing an Arsenal Bird would be impossible. It's obvious Mckinsey ordered Bandog to do it as Mckinsey controls Bandog' s leach, you can even hear the remorse in bandog's voice both when and after the fact. If Fullband kept his mouth shut he'd be alive! Now he off dancing with the angels forever with Champ and High Roller, I miss those guys... At least we've got solitary!

I have already played this but watching it again i can notice a lot of subtle foreshadowing in the radio chat

0:46 “While you sit on your ass and get medals!” 😂

11:17 This moment reminds me of the missiles fired by Glepnir in Ace Combat X

1:53 AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA!!!!!.....lol.....dat made my day ;D

What did Full Band do wrong towards Bandog? 🤔😡

gripen hm......ACF are you sure you choose gripen because coincidence....or because girly air force airing today?

I just noticed the targets are laid out in a heart shape on the map

1:50 Ace Combat Fan: i only hope one day i can kill this comander Tuga Avenger: consider it done.

I want to see how bad the Helios field gets on Ace. This looked three times worse than on Normal.

*SOLITARY*

Incase you wonder why Bandog killed Full Band, you can see from 6:14 when FB talk about Password, Bandog start to tilt about it. Bandog killed Full Band because he knew about some information that Bandog hide.

Belkan weaponry again this would have been even worst if Belkan Air Force does obtain V2 warheads for air to air usage as the AIR-2 Genie nuclear air to air missile since its blast radius would have killed the entire spare squadron

... just now i got hit by the area 88 similarities.

I legit thought the F/A-18s were Belkans when I played this level.

nice and tight on cloud 9. that's how I like it

"You, solitary now!" Me (as Trigger): pffft Still got me until now, lol

2 dislikes. Full Band has a friend

I am pretty sure the operation names are based on card combinations.

wow this mission actually gave me the spooks.

Penal unit or not, what the AWACS did was court martial worthy. At least.

is it just me or looks like 8492nd refrence

FULL BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAND

wait, waiapolo in AC7 looks totally different from the AC3. is that something?

Ship me with the Princess and Scrap Queen

That formation of enemy units looks like Pac-man

"While you sit on your ass and get medals." "You solitary now!" Truth hurts McKinzie doesn't it?

Hardest S rank in the game

10:25 Enemies are enemies!

I've played through this mission a few times now but only with the ability to sit back and concentrate on the dialogue does Bandog's treachery become obvious.

Somebody knew to much

Dat blast remind me of Scinfaxi

8:01 What do light bars on hulls mean?

The gripen is the offical fighter of my country (hungary) :)

Hey, were you in the work in USAF?

Stonehenge is railguns not missles

This is really the funniest Ace Combat

Notice the purple light on the side, outside of the cockpit?

I got fed up with this game because it seemed like the only way they could increase difficulty was to make it more unrealistic.

This mission deserves to go to permanent solitary.

Friendly fire!

Nimbus on steroids

Ballistic missile from AC5

Full Band... another F :'(

Awww wtf Bandog

5:35 Wait....i sorta recognize this place....isn't this like the SAME terrain depression where you took cover in, so as to not get hit by stonehenge? :/

Missile

is this area88/un squadron remake or sequel

"Ήλιος/hilios"it's sun in Greek 😎

More importantly you should've got bombs for this mission buddy... :D or AGMs ( Air to Ground Missile?)

Is it just me, or do half the voice actors sound like Shamrock?

Faceless Soldier...???

does a anyone else see the face on that plane?

Come on namco why are all the good characters getn off'd ffs

I'm going to start playing now auto download didn't download both ace combat games.

Full Band NOOOOOO...!!!

YOU CHANGE??? WHY NOT FINISH OFF ALL THOSE LAND DEFEND... Why leave some still standing 😬???

11:40.........aaaaaawww......I thought it was stonehenge......why game? why? ;__;

I fucking hate this consolitis gameplay crap where they give you artificial difficulty spike literally out of their asses, here I'm talking about the bullcrap missile that can only be magically stopped by clouds, and not just that, practically many missions do this in this game. This is why for me this is a trash game, a really trash game for a supposedly flight game, literally every arcade sim (call it simcade or semi sim whatever) combat flight games from the 80s-90s were better than this shooter game pretending to be a flight game. In those old simcade flight game on PC you could literally enabled cheats like unlimited weapon in the game and yet it still felt far more rewarding than this kind of game because you still need to actually fly in many ways closer to actually flying planes, and they don't bullshit you with arcade/console style artificial difficulty spike and boss battles. Yeah I'm ranting here haha.

Firts dislike xdxdxd no me gusta la pantalla de la cabina :v
