Ace Combat 4: Shattered Skies Walkthrough Part 1: Sitting Duck (INTRO & FIRST MISSION)
0Hello, dear gamers and welcome back to my channel. As you may already know, this walkthrough was supposed to start two days ago but was delayed due to unforeseen technical issues which have been resolved and hopefully will not interfere with the work of the channel again. With that out of the way, welcome to the continuation of my Ace Combat walkthrough. I hope you'll join me as i introduce you into the series properly with Ace Combat 4: Shattered Skies. Enjoy.
I should note that due to certain unsolvable issues with PCSX2 emulator which will be used to play this game, you may notice certain graphical issues during the gameplay such as halo-like sun and darker aircraft models. I fixed the latter issue the best i could whereas the former issue appears to be unsolvable without sacrificing the emulator's performance. I hope that this will not detract from the overall quality of the gameplay.
About Game: Ace Combat 4: Shattered Skies (Also known as Ace Combat 4: Distant Thunder in Europe) is 2001 combat flight simulator video game with arcade elements developed and published by Namco as PlayStation 2 exclusive. It is fourth game in the mainline Ace Combat series and fifth game in the overall series, serving as sequel to both 1995's Air Combat and 1997's Ace Combat 2 and a direct prequel to 2019's Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown. Initially imagined as the soft reboot of the Ace Combat series due to bad international reception of Ace Combat 3: Electrosphere, Ace Combat 4 was met with outstanding ovation upon release due to its gameplay, graphics and general modernization and improvement of the series' formula which will go on to serve as the basis for all games in the series released after 2001. In addition to this, Ace Combat has become the best-selling game in the franchise by 2008 with over 260 million copies sold. It held the position for over a decade before being dethroned by Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown in 2021. Due to success of this game, Ace Combat franchise was continued with Ace Combat 5: Unsung War which was released in 2004.
Story of the game is set over the course of a year between September 2004 and September 2005 and follows two overarching stories set during Usean Continental War, a large-scale conflict that has errupted on Usean continent between Federal Republic Of Erusea and Independent States' Allied Forces, a military coalition made up of 16 Usean countries with one story following an unnamed man who recalls his childhood during the war and his interactions with Yellow 13, Erusean flying ace who accidentally killed his family during an skirmish with another aircraft over their home while the second story follows Mobius 1, ISAF's combat pilot who is stationed at North Point, ISAF's final strategic position which is about to be overran by Erusean bombers, effectively ending the war in Erusean victory with Mobius 1 being among the pilots scrambled to intercept the bombers and shoot them down before they reach North Point...
