If the one you are talking about is made by NAMCO, yes. I'm currently kicking ass with an F-22 and 2 F-35C's for "Edge" and "Archer", the other people in my squadron. There was a 4th, "Chopper".... but he kicked the bucket as part of the storyline. Kinda sad... he saved my ass many times. Damned F-15's are deathtraps I tell you!

*raises hand*
Got it, played it, beaten it on all but Ace difficulty, and I ain't got much longer to go on that. I have only 1 fightercraft left to unlock, and I'm still working on getting all the special repaints.
If you need any tips on beating certain levels, feel free to give me a ring. ;)

ACE difficulty eh? I'm playing it the first time through on ACE... Gotten S's on every mission so far. Which fighter? The Falken? Or the X-02?

I'm glad they don't have multiplayer on this one...
The Zombie - November 22, 2004 09:21 PM (GMT)
Yeah, cause you know I would spank you royally with the crappiest plane.

Not sure...I haven't memorized the last batch I unlocked yet...I'm pretty sure I've unlocked the Falken though.

Do you have a plane that uses a laser?

As in....a real laser, and not laser-guided weaponry?
Then no, I can safely say that I don't have that.
The Zombie - November 22, 2004 09:49 PM (GMT)
I don't know exactly how the Falken uses a Laser. As in guns or special weapon I do not know. If you do not have a plane that uses a laser, you do not have the Falken. Good luck getting it though.

You may be referring to, perhaps, something like a Falken II or III. I'm almost positive I have a Falken unlocked.
But in any case, I'm almost there anyway, so I'll find out soon enough when I go home tonight. :D
The Zombie - November 22, 2004 10:06 PM (GMT)
Nope, its called Falken. If you got it, take it for a spin...
EDIT: BTW... check this out:

Is it a variant of the SU-37?
The Zombie - November 22, 2004 10:47 PM (GMT)
No, it isn't. You have to gather the parts for it by destroying certain hangars throughout the game. I have most of the parts myself. I only lack the final one. Beware, it is EXREMELY expensive to buy...

Somehow, my friend....I do think over 800,000 credits is enough. :D
The Zombie - November 23, 2004 05:02 PM (GMT)
You can afford at least 1 or 2 then...

$50 where I am.... $50 for a gsame that would take less that a day to beat... *rolls eyes* I couldn't do that... I would rather buy a carton of cigarettes that are of no value what so ever and cause cancer. hehehehe...
Naw, I'll rent it, but I really want to play it. 4 was great... I love the way this one sounds too... It ahs like 30 missions or so. 4 had like... 17??

You may be thinking of the S-37...except for the X-02, that was the Top Plane in AC4: Shattered Skies. Extremely agile, a smidge faster than the standard SU-37 Super Flanker, but quite unstable, compared to the Super Flanker.
Looks like an X-29 on 'roids.
I want to get Unsung War. I've beaten AC4 so many times...I just need to unlock the X-02, I can never quite get to it...I've come really close, tho.
Are the Graphics that great? cuz I thought they looked kickass!
EDIT: Super Flanker's definitely my fave bird, in AC4.

A day? No, no... you are mistaken. This game would take more than a day to beat. You got like 30 planes to unlock, a bunch of medals to earn, 30 something missions to go through, secret uber-powerful plane to assemble. Oh no, this game'll take like a week to complete.
I suggest buying it. 4 had 18 I think. The last mission was frickin easy...
The X-02? Its alright... I prefer the Super Flanker myself. Did you get all the paint jobs?
The graphisc are awesome. The storyline is compelling, and you a WIDE selection of aircraft.

Can you get Russian jets like the MiG-29 Fulcrum?

You can get better than the Fulcrum...
SU-37 is Sukhoi 37, a Russian high-performance jet which outmaneuvers even the F-22 Raptor, so the Fulcrum does not stand a chance against it.
(true fact)
dunno about AC5, but in 4, the FUlcrum's easy as pie to shoot down. In the last mission of AC4, I always use the F-4 tho. It's perfct forgetting through the missile hatch at the very end. THe biggest plane I've successfully completed that level with were the F-22 Raptor and the RM-01 Rafale.
AC5:UW sounds awesome! it's more of a strategic RPG type of game, isn't it? Only, that's what I've been told.
AC4 of course, was a pure 3rd-person dogfighter.
Funny enough, the Stonehenge level, halfway through Four, was harder than the Megalith Level. I use smaller planes in both, higher maneuverability.
Hardest for me was the "City" level, where you have to fight Yellow Squadron at the end. What I do is use the SU-37 w/ LASMs, then just before the Ospreys show up, I go back and switch to the QAAM.
Shoot down the Ospreys w/ the machinegun, and then take on Yellow Squadron with full complement of missiles.
Am I rambling again?
The Zombie - November 29, 2004 08:28 PM (GMT)
I frankly never used another planein 4 once I goy the Sukhoi line of fighters unlocked.
