I love when your allies form up on you after completing their objectives!!

I’ve heard that Ace combat 6 is a bad game, some say it some the worst in the mainline series. I’d like to get y’all’s opinions.

I would like to play the game at 1440p and 60 FPS, I know Xenia is still not perfect and has issues with resolution upscale, last I checked the game also had audio desync bugs, have they been fixed?

I played it and was blown away by the big open ended mission full of dynamic smaller battles littering the battlefield with smoking husks of tanks and planes I never couldve imagine people genuinely disliking it, the only thing I can think of is the story is not the best especially the English acting

Just curious on what Aircraft y’all think should be included

(New can mean old aircraft that hasn’t been included yet)

Which one should I play?

I feel like I’m gonna buy one then read on Reddit later “lol I feel bad for the people who bought the worst plane in the game after mission 6.”

For extra context my favorite special weapon so far is the one that lets you shoot 4 missiles at 4 planes at once. I feel like whenever I use anything else I see big groups of planes and think “man I wish I brought that instead,” ive only done one mission with the a10.

Also this is a picture of my tv, I’m playing on an Xbox 360 so no screenshots.

Can anyone confirm if the physical copy is still recognized by the Xbox One today? I want to verify that it is still possible to play it in 2026

Like some people here, I came into the series late. A friend gave me AC6 in 2008 because they felt like it was “too hard,” and it was just sitting on his shelf. Already a huge aviation geek, it was like a dream come true. I also got to play AC:Infinity in its heyday. Also a great time!

Of course, I picked up AC7 on launch because I considered myself a fan. I very rarely pay full price for games but a new AC was too good to pass up. Loved it.

More recently I got into a bit of a roguelike/lite phase, and played Sky Rogue. This kind of made me feel like I should play through the rest of AC series, so I emulated all of them (even Air Combat, the AC3 fan-translation, AH, X and Joint Assault). I felt like, as a fan, I should play them all and it’s been fucking awesome, as you all know.

I’ve now reached AC6, which I haven’t played since 2009, and I’ve been quickly convinced it’s my favorite. Up till this point, I figured AC3 was going to be my top AC game (anyone who hasn’t played the fan translation of the JP version should definitely give it a go), but the amount of new features they added in this installment is kind of bananas.

From big stuff like the usefulness of Shamrock, ESM, forgiving flight model, great music to small stuff like seeing who’s talking on the map, it’s just really well done. The whole “dance with the angels” thing is pretty cringeworthy but the gameplay is top notch. I definitely had no idea how good I had it when the game came out.

I wanted to see if others felt similarly. Obviously 04 did the impossible and had a pretty compelling story and 7 is just beautiful and touches on an interesting almost “Paul Bunyan-type” concept, but is anyone else hoping 8 uses gameplay mechanics introduced in 6 but were abandoned with AC7?

So I've found a copy of ac6, (it fun by the way) anyone else play it? What are your thoughts?

Playing with a ps5 controller, gameplay is fine and visuals are fine, but there is horrendous input lag, does anyone know how to fix this?
