Ace Combat 7 Playthrough | Mission 18 | Lost Kingdom (Expert Controls) 

Mihaly’s callsign is “archangel”, but on the codec, it only appears as “Archange” why’s that, you may ask? Because Mihaly takes no L’s

I actually didnt know there would be aircraft on this mission in my first play through so I did this mission with an A-10 on Hard

In the cutscene, Rosa told harling sacrificed his life and let the missile hit his craft. Just so that ISEV is safe So trigger didnt kill harling

"I expressed my honest opinion and was thrown in jail for it." Sounds like Chinese censorship.

This mission hits different today.

Lol mihaly broke the 3rd wall and it’s so true. 7:16

I haven't even played any of the ace combat games but damn I love them, mainly this one

Oh by the way... 2021 World mood: 14:02

Now do it with an a-10 if possible.

9:12 …Alejandro? That you?

Does anyone know if it’s possible to down three Sol fighters in this? I know four Sols appear, once you down two, Mihaly appears, and the game expects you to turn to your attention to him. I’ve tried pursuing the third Sol fighter, even after Mihaly appears. I know the game removes your ability to lock onto the last two with missiles and they flee. I’ve tried stabilizing behind them and using the gun, but I think it beefs up their HP, or just outright makes them invincible.

“MoViNg iN a wAy ThAt MiNimiZeS tHe DaMaGe” Yellow 14 >>> Mihaly

How do you make that abrupt turn?

Why can’t I kill Mr. X? He dodges everything and blows up my plane in 1 - 2 hits???

When I play this level it takes forever to ID whether enemy or ally. Wtf.

I got the Mihaly skin for my Su-30

I don´t know why but even if I complete the mission in under 3 minutes I don´t get the medal for it (and yes I didn´t use special weapons)

This mission is the only one that made me feel bad. Because we've been given context in the form of Mihaly's backstory, I feel terrible everytime I shot down a target or whenever the enemy's radio coming in. They fought hard to restore their lost kingdom, but got defeated and robbed of their supplies because we need them to end the war. That's what made me feel bad. Because even if what we did is justified and we need those supplies more, their reason is just as noble and I admire it very much. "They can take our lives. The young will carry on.", "Don't give up, we will not lose our homeland again" these - these got me chills.

If you want to feel extra bad, a number of non-TGT trucks and tanks are positioned defensively in front buildings that appear to be churches. It’s your choice not to engage them.

The last time I ran this mission I got the kill shot at a low altitude towards the bottom of one his famous diving maneuvers. Needless to say I watch the plane explode on the terrain. A buddy was watching and was confused why Mihaly was still talking. I told him I broke the game lol

20:02 The only hit that Mihaly didn't take in a noncritical area.

Damn Osea commiting war crimes as always

Because the encounter with Mihaly is scripted, and you can’t shoot him down until the dialogue plays out, I’ve started just doing circles in midair at max speed to wait out the dialogue so I’m not wasting time and ammunition fighting a guy who the game makes dodge every missile. Never got hit once while doing circles. And it made me think, ‘Man, Eursea must have really terrible pilots if you’re considered their best, and not even you can land a missile, bullet, or even railgun shot on a pilot doing predictable circles…’

I first did this mission with an SU 30 with 4AGMs (the one that Sol 2 - 5 uses, not the one Archange uses) I often go back to this mission fighting Mihaly with just missiles, though this boss fight isn't so difficult with just missiles.

What a sad mission, Trigger has blood on his hands for blowing up those war refugee tents and SPC(infantry with MANPADS) units😿

13:40 uhhh what a nice kill.....

10:54, he looked back and said "fuck these tents in particular"

love how this gamer is matching mihaly move for move while i a pc ac7 player is struggling so hard well im using keyboard and mouse figures ahaha

8:05 "I told them to identify themselves. So Anyway, I started blasting"

Is there a way to take down sol squadron before they take off

5:50 Trigger: **Offended silence**

When I started playing the game; I never lost to Mr. X ............. I almost had my 2nd loss 15 minutes ago!!

the king return

I've never played Ace Combat; only found the soundtrack and vibed to it. I only started watching the missions play on RU-vid today, and I came across this after 5 missions, including the ones with the Princess of Erusia. But the story writing and dialog makes you really feel the moral struggle here. Are the Player and his wingmen the good guys? It was sad. It had enough going on that it was fun to look at, but enough desperate measures that it was a train wreck you couldn't look away from. ... Then Archange popped up after mentions of "King". Me: Archange? I heard that song before... this is a boss, right? *music begins to crescendo and get more serious* Me: wait... that's MIHALY! Everything fell away from me, and I watched as the moral Grey was kept in, and all I'm watching is two starved wolves locked in an epic dogfight for survival. One watching his country die in his arms while the future spreads wings to leave him behind, and the other fighting to just keep his friends alive. Each opponent pushing their aircraft to its limits, both clawing at the walls to retain the advantage, it was both awe-inspiring and bewildering. I wanted it to stop, but I knew it could only end one way... And then Mihaly was shot down by Trigger. His last words, not even acknowledging his own contributions, but barely saying what needed to be said. My first and last look at Mihaly in the air left me with thoughts that would keep me up at night. Sorry I missed out... this is a damn good game. Damn powerful story.

セミアクティブレーダー誘導方式であるはずの AIM-7M に、何故かファイア・アンド・フォーゲット能力が付加されている・・・⁉

I felt bad for them

Geht es eigentlich nur mir so in diesem Spiel oder ist es grundsätzlich immer so das alle Gegnerischen Flugzeuge und SAM‘s immer auf den Spieler rotzen?🤣 hin und wieder ist es fast unspielbar weil die Kollegen Wochenend-Flüge machen und sich das schöne Paradies ansehen während man gegen gefühlt 20 Migs/F?!? Und die 10 SAM am Boden kämpft hahaha

Gotta love when you beat wll the sol squadron in mission 15 just for their plane to miracously have belkan witchcraft healing in mission 18 just for them to be destroyed (most of them to say the least)

Is this a war crime?

When Mihaly says "I unleashed pure chaos" he doesn't mean how many did he kill but his cooperation with the drome program
