@CirqueduCiel They’re also making assumptions based on an incomplete aircraft list, my estimate was somewhere between 2-11 aircraft yet to be revealed.
@Scan_101 I could understand being salty after the game releases, but it hasn't released yet and we don't have a full aircraft list.
It's a bit of wrong place, wrong time, as I'm honestly a tired of whinging about "X not being in AC8" with no evidence in the contrary by other posters.
@Scan_101 No? It's delusional at best.
Even Ace Combat 6, which has the lowest aircraft count of the main games at 15, and includes almost exclusively in service "normal" aircraft had the CFA-44.
It will have AT LEAST 1 original aircraft in the base game at launch.
@ApriliaBelka They're not "Pretty much confirmed" for DLC you're just jumping to conclusions. There are 28 confirmed aircraft not including preorder/battlepass leaving 3-11 aircraft for a final aircraft count is in the 30s.
AT LEAST 1 original craft will be included base game, same as always.
@Dynastes_B Assuming it's in the aircraft tree (It was shown in a Dev Diary) I'm aiming for the A-6 (and EA-6) first.
After that I'm probably going to be boring and go for Carrier based aircraft.
@Ace_Combat_Fan I think that spot makes a lot more sense for the A-6 IMO. I can't see it not being included at launch as otherwise there's no carrier based Attacker aircraft.
(Also can't imagine they'd show it in a dev diary if they're not including it, also too high quality for an NPC craft)
