Hello. If anyone would like to share multiplayer tips I would greatly appreciate it. First time playing Ace Combat - I love the game. I would love it more if I could get a few kills online. Read a few interesting suggestions involving which helps in single. Anyway, any suggestions for us noobs would be great.

(Some) Examples might include:

1. Getting greater accuracy % with missile shots
2. Avoiding getting hit with missile shots
3. Using terrain as cover
4. Team tactics
5. Aircraft strengths/weaknesses
6. Special manuevers for gaining tactical advantage

really the only tips i have are as follows:

1. Take a plane with XLAAs or QAAMs.....that way you can shoot from far away and stay (relatively) safe, or with the QAAMs you can shoot a missile and it will find the target (almost) every time.

2. NEVER slow down or straighten out to fire on someone, this will lead to someone else getting an easy shot on you. Plus those QAAMs i mentioned will be tracking you too so you dont want them finding you all strainght and level.

3. In the Team and Siege battles, pay attention to what the objectives are (besides kill all the players) because usually this will help you stay alive and come out ahead of the other team.....

These are pretty basic but im serious, keep on the full A/B and as soon as you get a lock fire and move.....

Learn to Fly with the Normal controls.

Use a Fighter plane. Multi role or Ground Attack are Garbage in Team Battle multi

Use Specials missiles that fit your strategy. If you want to fly more back up and Wingman for people use the XAM6-4 if you want to try a more direct attack approach or crave that dogfighting go with QAAM missiles.

Fly a plane that you LIKE. it doesnt matter top speed, if you can out maneuver a SU-47 in a A10 then go for it.

Attack the other teams best pilot

Dont get caught up in circling around trying to pop off a shot on someone, mix it up. Yo-Yo up behind then or try to A/B and get a little distance to pop a shot off.

Dont fly around firing as many missiles as you can. Take your time, watch the person you are persuing and try to anticipate them

Communicate with your team, Tell them who you are attacking and If you are being tailed. ASK FOR HELP

and most important of all

dont hit the ground :P

I find that making fast strafing runs with XLAA missiles works well in Team Battle games. Don't engage them in a dog fight, simply fly in, shoot off missiles on a target engaged with your teammate, and fly out.
