Ace Combat 5 Reviews
It neede to be longer. I love the game, but I thought that it went by a little too fast.
Writing this review after 2 months of playing AC5.Enjoyed Belkan War more than AC5. The only plus is that, u have lot more options in selecting aircraft in Ace Combat 5,except for this it never really tested my skills.Would rate Belkan War 5 stars compared to AceCombat 5.
The storyline was great and the planes and levels were beautifully simulated. I loved this game. I recommend this to anyone. I've never been a one for level games - I prefer sports games - but this tops them all.
I love this game, I get into it soooo much I forget to go to bed.
The graphics - Outstanding. The only negative thing about this game is that each and every mission has a timer, once that timer runs out (if you haven't met the score requirements) the game ends. The missions that let you land afterward are less than desirable too, you have to go in at 200+ knots and pretty much slam on the deck and come to a screeching halt in order to get a perfect score. The controls - Simple, yet effective. I'd do the same for the refueling checkpoints (where you have to dock with a tanker) remove the timers, make the maneuvering process a little more realistic. Also I've seen the A.I using it as a fighter in several missions, I understand that the actual F-117 carries neither missiles nor machine guns, it's a sneaky bomber through and through. I find that Namco's products blow the others clean out of the water every time. Also, planes like the A-10 and F-117 can go faster than they should.
For example, according to Jane's Military Jets the A-10 is only capable of no more than 500 knots. All things considered, I would say that this is an Excellent game and would easily recommend it (as well as the others in the Ace Combat/Air Combat series). The selection of aircraft/weapons - This has been degraded from Ace Combat 4: Shattered Skies. Some aircraft don't carry enough weapons to get the job done and some lack maneuverability. I have always enjoyed this type of game and I think Namco has outdone themselves once again. It has a very limited payload, lacks maneuverability and the mission timers don't allow for a slow and low approach. I've taken it above mach 1 on some occasions. The storyline - Excellent.
The things I would do to improve this game are to extend or remove the timers for one, bring back the return-to-base line on the edge of the map but allow the player to actually fly to base and land/refuel/takeoff. Now each aircraft can only carry one special weapons, I find in particular that the SFFS bomb (Self-forging fragmentation bomb) is ineffective against most targets. I've played a lot of games from this genre, and from many different companies. Often I'll go through a mission and check my stats, then I end up feeling like I could have done better if I'd had more time. Also, the F-117 Nighthawk is pretty much useless.
