Much respect and thank you for staying and listening to the fighting speech before selecting the missile to get started on the last mission. That's the definition of a true ace combat 4 fan.
If you pay attention over the course of the missions, I believe it starts off low, builds to a triumphant crescendo, and then missions 18 hits and its just quiet.
After all these years I just realized that AWACS asked all of Mobius squadron to report. Mobius 1 - 8 report in and AWACS is like okay good. Then a minute later you hear "Mobius 9 engaging". Like damn bro straight up ignored AWACS.
You know what made this game so good. It was the perfect balance of arcade and realism, and it had a fair point system. It also had incredible replay value. I had this game, and snake eater, both of which I played until I succeded in 90%+ completion.
+Bryan Hascall I started flight games with ace combat 4 and moved on to 5 Then I went to play the real flight sims. However Ace combat 4 and 5 had some attention to detail that made you feel like an actually pilot like the delayed sound of explosions to recreate the speed of sound, or the sonic boom you make in ace combat 5. Its completly too arcade for me to play but I think its the best in flight games. thats where I got my start. love ace combat 4 and still have it.
God dammit, this game and snake eater were the most cinematic games I played in my youth. You felt good when you played them They were the swan song of video games as an art form.
I always get chills down my spine when I hear the opening roll of the music in this mission. Then, it's just a cascade of feels that make me want to: in equal measures, charge across the continental U.S. in a symbol of patriotism. Or, curl up in a ball in the corner and wait until the feels are gone.
I don't know why, but Ace Combat 4 remained to be the best out of all the AC Series. With Ace Combat 5 being second. Then you have Ace Combat Zero catching up.
It's because Ace Combat 4 set the bar for the other two PS2 entries. That, and the fact that Mobius 1 is unanimously regarded as the Ace of Aces, making an appearance in some shape or form in almost every Ace Combat entry after 4.
I think it's because of the "Show Don't Tell" nature of his story and personality: Aside from him doing the entire game alone without a squadron, you can extrapolate an entire character arc from ingame missions alone, without ever needing an explanation (Like the dialogue in AC5 or the documentary in ACZ). He starts as a rookie pilot, loses his entire squadron in Lifeline, outruns Stonehenge then lands a hit on a Yellow (possibly 13), then actually KILLS Yellow 4 alongside Stonehenge, then basically decimates any opposition in front of him before taking Farbanti and destroying Megalith.
3:37 - 4:05 holy fucking shit the goosebumps... I’m not fucking joking when I say that I was tearing up when I first played this mission. Literally everything about it is what gets me the feels, the music mixed with the enemy/friendly commentary, especially Yellow Squads realization that they’re going up against multiple insignia fighters, gets me every damn time
Erusea has never been especially stable. They started as an absolute Monarchy, then the royal family was ousted in favor of a Federal Republic, which was taken over by a military junta (during AC04), and now it's back in AC:07 as a monarchy again.
swumprat Well Mobius 1 is said to have the efficiency of a single squadron of ISAF fighters. On Ace mode, the other pilots in Mobius squadron actually get rolfstomped by the Yellow squadron fighters you fight on this mission. I think the most I've ever had survive was 2.
Mobius 8, the pilot that sometimes says "Don't fly in a straight line" and "Check your planes" is one of my favorite voices in this game. You gotta love SkyEye as well.
It is. After watching through this playthrough multiple times, I could hear him announcing his engagement of the enemy. Sadly, I don't recall seeing it on screen at all.
Still get chills 10 years later...Megalith was one of the best endings of my gaming career. Still get chills....wanna play it now. (Well that and MGS3.) Would of been a great online mission, like if 20 people have to fight and finish....damn...that dog fighting would be crazy. 10vs10? Ugh.
Next time. Who cares what difficulty you did it on. Its still some damn good flying on probably the best final mission with the best soundtrack I've seen in a long time of gaming pal.
My favorite part about this mission was that the whole time, the game gave you access to that (skippable) landing minigame after each mission. And it felt tacked-on and pointless every time. But it taught you to get low, fly straight, watch your elevation, and follow a tight path. And then, you get to the last boss, and you realize you shouldn't have been skipping that goddamn minigame.
I wish they made an Ace Combat game where all the "Aces" come together in one timeline to save the planet or something... Still, I would only want to play as Mobius One... MOBIOUS FOREVER!
Ace Combat 8: Mobius Alliance Story? Cipher, Mobius One, Blaze, Gryphus One and Garuda One teamed up to takes on the remnants of the Grey Men and Free Erusea..and they have the proto-ZOE.
Just beat this game last night, this mission almost made me rage quit, amazing how some of you get so good at this, I fire those same missiles at Yellow's and can barely hit one!
It would've been more epic if you had the camera centered on the F-22 instead of its missiles when they were giving the speech in the hangar... Still it was a good run... Props on the quality...
I overkill this game by flying only a strict like License flight with my F-14 Tomcat, of course on Ace Mode. I'll be looking forward to a one on one with this guy and others too. A true ace has been resurrected! But not bad of the game play and good job too. :)
Im going with no, It's never stated that he fought in that war. But apparently, in one of the books that were released, he was the guy who trained Yellow 13.
Saw after the 2nd generator you were ready to take out the missiles but it looks like you forgot the 3rd generator. Awesome flying too! Looks like mine when I was playing the game,
interesting run. honestly, ive beaten every ace combat game using the a10- warthog. kinda interesting to shoot down su-37s with the a-10. and this mission took me 3 years to complete with any other plane.
Those arent lasers. Or at least they are aiming lasers. Megalight uses missiles to destroy asteroids, so that the fragments fall and hit certain targets
They should remake this game... with the modern graphics of AC7, imagine how this final mission would look like, all those meteors falling, some crashing againts aircrafts, you could see massive explosions in the horizon due to the meteors crashing to the earth, having to dodge meteors as they ramdonly falls while you fight againts the whole yellow squadron... damn.
I remember playing this came on my 8th birthday, Jesus on the finale mission I remember jumping and cheering all over the place and know having to come back to Usea on AC7 is just great. Oh and one more thing it's time to go to the Osean Air Force
What the fuck? Why was it that the middle part of Megalith was closed for me? I was trying to find it for 10 minutes straight and it ended up with me accidentally crashing
If you go back to the start of my Videos i stated that all most of my PS2 games are recorded on a PS3 that has backwards compatibility. Also for pcsx2 i have never been able to get perfect cut sceens. Like the intro for instance there alot of black bars in the video and then the f22 is all black.
Anyone ever destroyed the generators with air-to-ground SP weapons? I once tried but even a direct hit from an unguided bomb did zero damage (causing me to crash into the generator).
My theory has always been that they didn't have enough voice actors in the studio that day, so that was a way to make someone doubling up a little less obvious.
Much respect and thank you for staying and listening to the fighting speech before selecting the missile to get started on the last mission. That's the definition of a true ace combat 4 fan.
DAMN RIGHT!
I listened to it. Twice.
Yeah, but no one will let Heaven's Gate play more than 20 seconds! 👀😆
@@swumprat
I did it by accident. Sorry.
No music during the debriefing.... I knew shit got real once I got at this point
Fun Fact: There's an OST for the background noise that played during the briefing.
Disk 2 Track 10 Silent. Followed by Mobius the hangar song, then Rex Tremendae the into to megalith then Megalith Agnus Dei
OK, I'll check my AC4 OST for it

There's actually a mobius 10 too lol
The music of this mission...This probably was my first real introduction into opera as a kid. Just epic.
Jean-Louis disliked the video.
4 years later and its at 8. Seems like all those yellows from this mission dislike it. I wonder why...its epic.
You know what made this game so good. It was the perfect balance of arcade and realism, and it had a fair point system. It also had incredible replay value. I had this game, and snake eater, both of which I played until I succeded in 90%+ completion.

I play war thunder now, arcade mostly. I just wish they would come out with warships soon.
God dammit, this game and snake eater were the most cinematic games I played in my youth. You felt good when you played them
They were the swan song of video games as an art form.
"Don't let those pilots die !"
So much emotion at this point
>
4:28 "Dammit! They've got a flamethrower!" LOL
the only reason i don't fight in cock pit mode is because i love the view of the jet
+IceBreaker165 Honestly i think cockpit mode is only good in ACAH and we all know how good that game was.
unstable amera gave me motion sickness! i didn't give the game a chance lol
Especially when flying the Tomcat, lol.

Then, it's just a cascade of feels that make me want to: in equal measures, charge across the continental U.S. in a symbol of patriotism.

I randomlypicked up this game in a Circuit City a long time ago, and my experience with videogames changed forever.

Erusian pilots mostly have French sounding names, and they have a fascist gov't, i'm starting to think that Erusia symbolizes Vichy France.
I think it is a combo of Vichy France and WWI imperialist Germany.
I noticed that.
If there was fascism in Erusea then they wouldn't be a republic. A more accurate one is expansionist.
Erusea has never been especially stable. They started as an absolute Monarchy, then the royal family was ousted in favor of a Federal Republic, which was taken over by a military junta (during AC04), and now it's back in AC:07 as a monarchy again.
3:30 is the greatest moment in this game's history
Yes all of mobius squadron they better believe in the fear for 1 mobius aircraft can defeat dozens of enemies think what can 12 do...
swumprat Well Mobius 1 is said to have the efficiency of a single squadron of ISAF fighters. On Ace mode, the other pilots in Mobius squadron actually get rolfstomped by the Yellow squadron fighters you fight on this mission. I think the most I've ever had survive was 2.
OFJehutyV2 I know I played through on ace before I was just saying what if the other 12 were just as good as you.
yea shit ton of hype from him talking about your squadron that your the boss of now.
Sorry just got a eargasm
Bringing back so many memories from my time in Camp Lejeune... God, I miss playing this game... Thanks for posting...
I played this game while stationed at Lejeune as well. Small world
Mobius 8, the pilot that sometimes says "Don't fly in a straight line" and "Check your planes" is one of my favorite voices in this game. You gotta love SkyEye as well.
Jillips Entertainment I think thats Omega 11?
It is. After watching through this playthrough multiple times, I could hear him announcing his engagement of the enemy. Sadly, I don't recall seeing it on screen at all.
Headcanon: some of the better pilots able to sometimes keep up with Mobius 1 were rolled into Mobius squadron
Headcanon: some of the better pilots able to sometimes keep up with Mobius 1 were rolled into Mobius squadron
I don't even think that needs to be headcanon, I think that's what's intended to be implied.

You only needed to land at the end of mission 3 to finish that otherwise you landed to reload your weapons
At last, a quality upload with a skilled player to match the sheer perfection of this mission. Thank you!
5:37 "Esther keep close to your wingman"
Gamer be like, "What wingman? I SHOT THEM ALL FKKKING DOWWNN
Damn it, who left these onions here?
“Altman, use your hand grenades!”
Rainer Altman? Gelb 2??
Anyone else notice that one of the Erusian pilots is named Mihae; a name shared with the Erusian pilot from the Ace Combat 7 trailer?
mihae and mihaly
And if that was Mihaly, then that would be bad news for ISAF.
This game made 11-year-old me feel like a hero.
I remember when i try this level first time... i have destroy the principal missile but i crash into the walls...
Me too.
Yellow squadron never had a chance. I almost felt bad for them.
"Esther, stay close to your wingman!"
"Uh, where is he?"
Wingman: *Ashes*
This mission was epic.
This whole mission still gives me chills
Pretty sure "Mobius 8" is "Omega 11".
This game made me want to fly for real when I was a kid - now I work as a flight instructor!
I played through this game as a kid. I never truly appreciated the amazing music and unique storyline pov.
Well I just finished watching you whole Ace Combat 4 Series - Good job I enjoyed watching you play this game.
Brings back memory, fav mission on AC4 and good soundtrack.
I wish they made an Ace Combat game where all the "Aces" come together in one timeline to save the planet or something... Still, I would only want to play as Mobius One... MOBIOUS FOREVER!
There is a mission in Ace Combat:Joint Assault where you must fight all the good and bad aces.
And Ace combat Zero too, but is all the squadron on that game and you can fight with MOBIUS 1!
Better yet, they should make a cartoon series. It should be called "Ace Combat: Freedom Force".
Ace Combat 8: Mobius Alliance
Story? Cipher, Mobius One, Blaze, Gryphus One and Garuda One teamed up to takes on the remnants of the Grey Men and Free Erusea..and they have the proto-ZOE.
SMAXZO hey buddy… you’re still alive?
Who didn't use the F-22A for this mission? I honestly never stopped using it, for all the many playthroughs of the game. God, I love this game.
+TheUltimateRiku The F-22 is the only correct answer for this mission
Exactly ! XD
+TheUltimateRiku I want this game just so I can try to use the A-10 every single time I can just to see if I could.
+TheUltimateRiku And now I've just read the comments about how they used everything else before the F-22.
Mostly the A-10 itself...
+Blaze1337 X01 Wyvern is acceptable.
Damn watching this after beating AC7 a few weeks ago... really shows how far Ace Combat has come.
That mission...
Where you were blown up?
Did anyone notice the name around 5:32? Is that the pilot from the AC7 trailer?
Chadbius One vs the Virgin rest of the aces.
Chadbius One vs Fake Virgin Yellows
Chad Yellow Squadron vs Virgin Sol Squadron
Just beat this game last night, this mission almost made me rage quit, amazing how some of you get so good at this, I fire those same missiles at Yellow's and can barely hit one!
I used to play it every day and i become very good at it it has a great replay ability such a great game
I'm sure the storyteller is grown up by 2019-2020 (Ace Combat 7). He'd be sitting in a cafe with a view of the Elevator at Selatapura.
It would've been more epic if you had the camera centered on the F-22 instead of its missiles when they were giving the speech in the hangar... Still it was a good run... Props on the quality...
I overkill this game by flying only a strict like License flight with my F-14 Tomcat, of course on Ace Mode. I'll be looking forward to a one on one with this guy and others too. A true ace has been resurrected! But not bad of the game play and good job too. :)
Those ending credits are nostalgic as fuck
The single greatest game ever created.
5:29
Wait was it the same guy from 7?
Im going with no, It's never stated that he fought in that war. But apparently, in one of the books that were released, he was the guy who trained Yellow 13.
The delay on the explosions, those are tight.
Que d'émotions,pour moi le meilleur des aces combats,ce fut un plaisir de voir tes vidéos:)
La guerre vue par un enfant en faisant référence à ce fameux pilote(le joueur)je trouve ça magnifique:)
Saw after the 2nd generator you were ready to take out the missiles but it looks like you forgot the 3rd generator.
Awesome flying too! Looks like mine when I was playing the game,
you made it look so easy
When playing my own soundtrack to this game, there's a couple of scenes that makes me cry. LoL!
"All aircraft... FOLLOW ME!"
I fucking melt at 4:06 every time
I loved the thrill caused by the ground unit infiltrating Megalith's facilities.
interesting run. honestly, ive beaten every ace combat game using the a10- warthog. kinda interesting to shoot down su-37s with the a-10. and this mission took me 3 years to complete with any other plane.
Radio chatters in this game are so freaking awesome.
Been 9 years since this video came out, been about 10 since i started playing ac04. Finally beat this mission with every plane in the game.
9:53
Jason Momoa's defeat at the hands of the Aces of the Ace Combat universe while they soar high into the skies.

Him or Yellow 13
Y U NO WORK PROPERLY ON PCSX2?!
This music touches my soul, i will never give up and i will fight intill my last breathe! 11:10
Was it recorded from PS3? It looks HD
I have a PS3 that can play ps2 games in 720p is yes it is HD
lol i remeber trying to get rid of this bitch oh man what a giant pain in the ass... great game though i think this was the 1st ps2 game i ever owned
Damn cant believe time went by that fast. This game was something for its time.
That moment after 8:10 where the lasers start firing with the stuff falling in the background and the music. Fuuuuu I miss this game.
Those arent lasers. Or at least they are aiming lasers. Megalight uses missiles to destroy asteroids, so that the fragments fall and hit certain targets
Was good to play on with the sealth jet. Since mobi sqaud had that too.
at least SOMEONE does this mission the right way and plays it with the F/A-22 Raptor :D
I thought the right way was using your F-4 phantom II
Two people abandoned the mobius squadron to get shot down by yellows
They should remake this game... with the modern graphics of AC7, imagine how this final mission would look like, all those meteors falling, some crashing againts aircrafts, you could see massive explosions in the horizon due to the meteors crashing to the earth, having to dodge meteors as they ramdonly falls while you fight againts the whole yellow squadron... damn.
This is so epic
+1 for the speech
I heard that credit song back in ace combat infinity. 😲
I remember playing this came on my 8th birthday, Jesus on the finale mission I remember jumping and cheering all over the place and know having to come back to Usea on AC7 is just great. Oh and one more thing it's time to go to the Osean Air Force
Megalith looks like one big rave machine
Ah yes. Ace combat 4.
I like that friendly eurofighter typhoon at 4:42 I was like where is the second cannon fire coming from
That drums in the background of the Briefing makes us think that something big is gonna happen. No mistake :S
Oh yah ive done A-10 solo missions, I've done Mission 8 Shattered Skies the best mission ever in a a-10 thats fun
What the fuck? Why was it that the middle part of Megalith was closed for me? I was trying to find it for 10 minutes straight and it ended up with me accidentally crashing
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.......................................... I dunno.
