Play through of Ace Combat Assault Horizon. Few new features in this game from previous games are the dogfight mode and the helicopter & gunner mission.
Dogfight mode was kind of annoying as on higher value targets you tend to just do passes on the enemy trying to get the right angle to initiate the dogfight mode as the enemy tend to just out manoeuvre everything otherwise.
The helicopter missions had some god awful controls. Both L1 and L2 do the exact same thing which is zooming / lock onto target. The reason this is a pain is, to activate the missile dodge manoeuvre you have to hit L1+R1 (R1 fires off your missiles / special weapon), this causes a problem when you are aiming near an ally and the game decides there's no longer a missile coming at you and takes the command as fire off rocket pod and fail the mission because you killed an ally (this can be seen in part 1 1:03:00) would have made so much more sense just to have L1 as the dodge button.
Gunner missions just felt out of place in the game. Mostly because I wanted to play a combat flight sim not an on rails shooter, luckily they were simple and only time consuming. -
