The "VT Ace" bar Thread - Vector Thrust

Here you can tell stories of the matched that you fought in multiplayer.

Whether be serious 1v1 a la Zero, a massive free for all dogfight or just silly things like the ZiZ-01 bomber on AoA stereoids, all is welcomed.

Which reminds me...the fact that you can put a aircraft carrier in the aircraft folder and actually fly it is...amazingly silly. Especially in multiplayer. Just a random ship surrounded by just air. Floating at 1000 to 2000 meters.

Though, once I destroyed it, my framerate dropped. I guess you shouldn't touch the magical flying ship.

Come on, sit down, don't be shy and share your tales.

Well, in that case.

You (Pokerpop) and I (Stinger) were just fighting a bit earlier today. You were in a YF-16, and I was in an AFTI-16.

There was a whole lot of lag the first 4-5 times I died, then a lot of air-drifting afterward. But, it was pretty fun.

We should do a round 2 some day. Maybe different planes, too?

Oh yeah, that was a lot of fun. I think I was flying an YF-14. Gotta say, you did put up a nice fight.

Yeah, agreed, we should do a rematch. I was thinking that we both should take the same plane. Something that's 4.5 gen, maybe?

4.5 gen? I suppose, yeah. Expect to be fighting with a pheonix-painted F-15E, then?

I like the sound of it. When should we meet? I still have two weeks worth of summer break before uni starts, so I am flexible timewise(as long as it isn't in the middle of the night.)

My own school's coming back tomorrow. Thankfully, I've yet to be a uni student, so, expect me to be on the most at, like, 7:30PM-ish.

Anyway, I went for another game in Multiplayer. The host was Cobalt "Deadshot" something.

There were a lot of fights involved. Some other dudes got in. A guy named Windhover got shot some, but, my most cherished moment of the fight is the host himself.

He posed quite the fight, and, while I was still able to take him down multiple times, he'd always get up and fight back.

I didn't document any of this, sadly. If I did, I'd flood the thread with images.

What time zone? If it's in the middle of the night for me, It'll be hard to organise a rematch.

Sounds like you had a hell of a time.

GMT -5. I believe this is around the same one you have.

Actually, I am not 'Murican.
As I've stated in the Organized Game Nights tread, it's Paris time(which is GMT +1 or GMT +2, depending on the daylight saving time) that I go by.
Just BTW, I'm from Croatia.

Oh. Well, that restricts our time a good bit, doesn't it?..

Edited by: szboudreau01

Sure does We'll figure something out.

Yeah, we sure will. By time I'm out of class, it's like, 8:30-ish for you. Maybe later

Well any time after 6pm GMT/BST would be good for me. Just hit me up on Steam.

One match with Midsummersnow, SlyCooperFan1 and I was pretty fun. Both Midsummersnow and I were flying the EOS-01Ts while Sly was flying a J-35D Draken. The amount of dakka and the sound of the gatling guns was awesome. I found out how hard it is to fly that aircraft that match.

More to come on this post, unless someone else posts before I edit.

Welp, I had a 2v1 match with someone named Ace Combat colonel and someone with a really long name. It ended with me getting 10 kills on theirs 3 total. Note that it was a deathmatch, and even with that these two worked together to try to destroy me. I was flying the F-14D QS, one of them was flying the F-22V, the other was flying the F-15+ Kai thingy.

That was the third time I joined into a random match with two people in it that worked together to try kill me(and fail at it). I wonder why though?

Could be friends-in-fighting. Though, seeing as you were in zer Tomkitty, I wonder how you did as well as you claim..

Personally, if I want co-op, I want co-op missions, or squad vs squad fights.

I got to talk to them after the match, and it turns out I was lagging bad, which means that I was jumping all over the screen for them.

Though the Tomkitty is still impressive to fly.

Also, later on I had a match with stealth aircraft, and let me tell ya', it's a pain in the ass to get a lock on one.

I and Raptor just dueled.

He exploited lag shielding, but I broke through.

I exploited it? Not at all lol. It was purely laggy in there and you killed me while I couldn't do the same to you lol.

Also we did some formation flying and some airshow maneuvers all for that mountain to see.

Yeah, I guess we did that too. A downside is that we were in vastly different planes. Had we been in 2 Magnus F-35As, we could've put on a real show!

Or the Cyber Dagger F-22Xs!

Yeah, those work too. Public supermaneuverability display.
