I just started Ultimate not long ago. Although the VF-25's and YF-29's are very nice, I prefer the Plus era VFs because their gunpods do very high DPS (even better than the high end crafts imo). I am currently just grinding parts and money to build all the level 2 and level 3 crafts. Level 3 VF-22S here we go.

I actually enjoyed the Close Range Assault system a lot. Sure it was semi rail guided and less skill required but it made combat really intense and epic. I think Infinity could have optional CRA, meaning it's not required to defeat a boss or pass a scenario (we all remember the boss fights in AH right?). No gunships either, those are getting pretty boring now. I'm really looking forward to a strangereal Ace Combat title.

I'm looking forward to the BD box set! Although I should wait for English fansub groups to possibly complete it before I buy it. Does anyone know any groups who might be working on it?

Ozma's YF-29 is one of the best end game crafts, with beam turret (sub 3) replaced by 4x damage increase! I just completed Macross 30 today and it was amazing! 50 hours of great gameplay and story (although I was only able to follow it loosely with my rudementary Japanese). The soundtrack was brilliant (Haruka Chigusa is a perfect singer and seiyuu, Mina-kun & kz-kun <3). I'd like to thank Zoroastres for the English translation guide, it was very helpful. Although I'd appreciate if it had a complete chapter by chapter synopsis (it only goes up to chapter 3 if I remember). Would some one mind explaining some of the sub plots I might have missed? I couldn't quite get the connection between Leon, Rodd and Mia, or the specifics behind the protoculture ruins and Yuruvua-Aga(?) device. I plan to play through it again and hope to obsorb more of the story, I wish there could be an anime series adaptation.
