message: I think there needs to be a page to cover the first Ace Combat (Air Combat) as there isn't anything about that game.
Nonetheless, it deserves its own page apart from the series. --deadkid_dk 08:43, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Opinionated?

message: Why after AC3 or AC2 (I forgot which one it was) did they get rid of fuel gauges. I know they sucked but it made it more realistic. So anybody know how an aircraft can fly without any fuel. One more thing why isn't there an article on the X49 Night Raven, Electrosphere has something on it why don't we?Sam ov the blue sand 17:14, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: In essence the newer games do have fuel gauges in a way, the mission timers could be considered to create the same limitation as limited fuel. Besides, I doubt Namco cares about realism. As for the X49 Night Raven, consider how hard it is to keep the pages for the existing aircraft here (ADF-01, X-02, ect.) It seems nearly every month someone proposes one of them be deleted, merged, or something of the sort. Talk to those people first before attempting to make something they'll just remove.Cbale2000 17:19, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The assertion of realism in a shooter is quite silly. The game is a flight-shooter, originally an arcade game. The game was never intended to be realistic beyond the surface of it. Akatombo (talk) 03:56, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  The Aircraft Manufactuers 

message: There's a user going around removing all of the aircraft lists from the games' articles under the mistaken impression that such lists are "listcruft" when, in fact, they aren't. However, now is as good a time as any to create a unified page of all of the aircraft in the Ace Combat games. It should probably refrain from adding undue statistics (weapon loadout, special weapons, carrier-based, etc). I Imagine a table would probably work best. eg:
Aircraft     	Air Combat	Ace Combat 2	Ace Combat 3	etc...
ADF-01 Falken	          	x

replies: text: That was me. I removed the lists as they were unimportant and indiscriminate. In an encyclopedia article, notable aspects of the subject should be written about, not listed, and I would encourage anyone to do so.

message: Well it appears someone has gone and removed the fictional aircraft page. I find it amazing how decisions like this can be made by people that have not contributed to the topic at all the deletion discussion only lasts a few day.
What I find even more interesting is the number of people that argue how fictional aircraft from a video game are unencyclopedic, yet apparently numerous fictional aircraft from movies are (Tie_fighter, FA-37_Talon, ect.). Whatever, I guess I'm just disappointed to see that someone seems to have an itchy finger near the delete button, these problems have been haunting this topic from the beginning. If these users were true wikipedians, they would work to improve articles that have issues, to make them conform to wikipdeia standards, instead of starting a witch hunt.

text: Comment - Normally, I would agree with a merge in this situation, however, with what I have seen around this topic, in all likelihood someone would find an excuse to delete everything that was just merged shortly after the fact, essentially nullifying the Earth (Ace Combat) article as a whole, and leaving little, if any of the original content.

thread_title:  Merge from Earth (Ace Combat) 

message: In the overview of the game series, and each title should be edited to indicate the game is a flight shooter, not a flight simulator. The producer of the Ace Combat series has made it explicit in his interviews that Ace Combat is not, and not intended to be a flight simulator. I find this to be a minor, but still notable discrepancy in the English Wikipedia Article. The emphasis of the game design is based around the easy to play - high action design, setting aside questions of reality for enjoyability. This is the primary reason for the high number of missiles, the unlimited fuel, the lax flight physics, and the super powered aircraft.

message: The characters should already be covered within the main game articles, so I don't think anything will be merged here.

TTN (talk) 18:44, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: *I think merging the nation sections into their respective articles is a very good idea.  Firstly, most of the article seems to be either completely invented by fans (Belka's estimated as 505,000 km²; the nuclear blasts seem to have affected the nation's climate, etc.), or just rehashes of the plot which could be reconstructed within the game articles.   Moreover, there is just not enough third-party information within the article to justify it.  It would be great if there were reliable sources to confirm the obvious (Osea is a near-homophone of U.S.A., oh that's why they named it that!), but until then all we have is our interpretation of where the countries of this Strangereal world get their origins on Earth.  --Hydrokinetics12 (talk) 03:20, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: DualShockers is not considered a reliable source per WP:VG/S, so we shouldn't use that one at all. I don't think it really matters if they say "shipped" or "sold", since they're synonymous with each other. Even if you want to make the argument that they shipped 14 million games total to retailers and that doesn't define how many were sold, the Namco Bandai Games/Project Aces website even says "The cumulative worldwide sales of the popular home video game software "Ace Combat" series released by NAMCO BANDAI Games Inc. has exceeded 10 million units this year", which definitely sounds like that's how many it sold.

replies: text: I didn't mean to use DualShockers as a definitive source on the topic, just as a demonstrative to show that the difference between copies shipped and copies sold is negligible. There's plenty of other sources on this topic. I just don't want to end up in an edit war on this tiny point. ~SlyCooperFan1 19:58, 12 February 2021 (UTC)
