In what alternate universe is this a remaster? No offense. Redesign more like. Yeah, the radar looks different and the text is brighter, but that’s it. The draw distance is the same, as is the level of ground detail, and the aircraft models are still relatively low polygon. Skybox is the same. No more detail to the clouds than the original.
Idk, all I can pick from playing different ace routes starting from knight, soldier and mercenary. My theory is the mercenary route is canon. Even though you can encounter grabbacr and ofnir in the soldier route, mercenary is the only route that is canon to the storyline.
