In the blue painted blue …
The story of Ace Combat 7is still completely wrapped up in the mystery, and our brief test, carried out on one of the many missions of play, has not led to any clarification.
If we can not say anything about the narrative segment yet, we can say something about the technical aspect of the title: the video that was shown to us during the fair confirmed a good progress in the work, with the game going smoothly and without any hiccup. Airplanes are incredibly detailed, so that the sky has never been so realistic, thanks to the spectacular effect of weather conditions: to see the raindrops flowing over the glass of your cockpit gives a bit more, though it may seem marginal , really makes the difference when you find yourself with the pad in your hand.
Sure,
In a game like Ace Combat , the sound department also plays an important role: playing with headphones has given us an immersive and realistic experience, thanks to sound effects capable of faithfully reproducing the auditory sensations of a true pilot of aircraft.
… happy to be up there
The video mentioned in the previous paragraph focused on an unpublished feature for the series: these are the atmospheric conditions that will for the first time affect heavily our matches. In the case of rain, for example, our visibility will be largely limited, forcing us to some degree almost blind; the same can be said for the fog banks, which can often hide dangerous rocky masses nearby.
Helping this realistic effect also contributes to other elements such as condensation that will form on the glass of our cabin: if we spend too much time in a cloud, condensation will become ice and this will affect the mobility of our aircraft, making it more difficult to maneuver.
The clouds also carry with them the turbulence, that will shake our plane by testing our pilots’ ability to keep control. But clouds are not just elements to fear: during fighting with enemies, there may also be a place to hide, to avoid being detected by the radar and briefly restarting your breath before swaying again in the battle, be careful not to go too far time within them, worth the consequences we mentioned earlier.
Obviously, these escamotages will not only be used by us, but also by artificial intelligence: during the video shown at Gamescom, we saw two enemy planes disappearing into the clouds to avoid being reached by the rocket of the protagonist.
