Aces of Thunder - New PSVR2 Game!

[Blazer270Win@psn 19]

I am seriously hoping that there will be the ability to have friends take the back seat for two seater aircraft or a gunner spot on the aircraft. THAT **** would be awesome. From my experience in other titles from the original PSVR, VR is a much more social way of gaming than your standard flat screen games. I am also hoping to see the game eventually grow into having bombers, and of course have the same ability to have friends join and take additional positions in the aircraft. Can you imagine having 8 or 9 of your friends join in and man a B-17 on a bombing run. Co-Pilot, Navigator, Radio Operator, Bombardier, Top Turret Gunner, Waste Gunners, Tail Gunner, and Belly Gunner. Just imagine THAT excitement for full fledged teamwork to keep from being shot down and deliver the payload!

It is actually looking great. I was holding up on the PSVR2, but I will buy it solely for this.

Dear Gaijin,

 

You will kindly find my suggestions for the upcoming PSVR2 Game Ace Thunder:

 

• Make it compatible with Thrustmaster Hotas 4 (not just PSVR2 controller)
• Please make SIM mode available (not just Realistic Battles with VR visuals)
• Please add jets (or at least add it later)
• Please and please combine it with the Playstation players accounts. I have been playing Warthunder since 2013 and not want to just restart from 0)

 

I hope things mentioned above will some affect

 

 

Thrustmaster Hotas 4 hahaha, you won't hit anything with GUNS with this. Stick has a bad deadzone. (Its cheap plastic)

First of all, I can shoot  But not as accurate as you mentioned. Unfortunately, there are no alternatives for PS5 at the moment.

I have 2 sticks for the PLAYSTATION 4. Its a huge difference.

The best STICK = T 16.000

The only way to play SIMS in 2023 is with digital sticks and not old ANALOG with rubberbands in it.

I also played ACE COMBAT with it. And i can tell you.. you can only use missiles in that game if you use the HOTAS.

And trust me.. i'm a very good pilot. So its not skill.

I can GARANTEE that when THUNDER ACES comes out.. its gonna be a mess because its gonna be almost impossible to get a stable shot with guns with the HOTAS.

Only solution i see happening is maybe AIM assist.

I think the game is going to be meant to play with the psvr2 controllers. I’m sure since it’s exclusively for it that the controls will be good. You see in the video the use of hands and interaction with throttle and stick.

Not so, Sony could open access on the PS5 (like the PS4) to better quality Joy Sticks, Throttle and Rudder Pedals

Does anybody know if there is a Discord server for Aces of Thunder yet?

Gaijin,

 

 

I bought the first PSVR hoping you would support it, but you did not. No problem, that VR was not so good, and I sold it.

I bought a PS5 and was anxiously awaiting the release of PSVR2, I bought it and it's much better than the first.

I was hoping that Warthunder would support PSVR2, since Warthunder supports several different VR headsets in the PC.

You did a survey for Aces of Thunder, and most people I know voted YES but added "please support PSVR2 in Warthunder, no spinoff".

But you did announce a spinoff...

 

I have been a Warthunder player in Playstation for 9 years. I have 30K simulation battles.

Please support PSVR2 in Warthunder! I have lots of planes, I want to fly them in PSVR2 in simulation.

If you invest in Aces of Thunder, you will alienate current players like me, in the PS5.

 

If you need funding, please make a GoFund or even charge us in golden eagles to buy PSVR2 support, I don't care.

You said tanks are too CPU demanding. I have LOTS of tanks. No problem, support only planes in SIM.

If you invest in Aces of Thunder you will not support your own player base in PS5, and products will compete with each other.

 

Please support PSVR2 in Warthunder!

Unfortunately, I think this game is dead on arrival. Think about how many people actually own the psvr2. I’m sure it’s less than 10% of ps5 owners. Now consider that it’s a stand alone game with just ps5 psvr2 players. No pc players, no Xbox players, no PlayStation players using a controller. How many people do they expect to be playing this game? On top of that, look at the price of psvr2, it’s more than the ps5. As much as I think I would enjoy this, it won’t be worth buying the vr setup for a game no one has. I don’t see people running out to the stores to buy the psvr2 at its current price for 1 or 2 games.

I am waiting on 1 of two games to be released before buying the PSVR2. They are of course Aces of Thunder and the other is Firewall Ultra. Have PSVR1 and VR is worthwhile the money sink. Just need 1 or 2 games to make it worthwhile for me.

 The controllers that come with the PSVR2 are a total game changer and very well may negate the need for a flightstick based on what I am told from current PSVR2 owners/users. They are supposedly a major leap forward over the old useless motion controllers of the PS4...lol.

Man this would definitely get me to buy PS VR2. Definitely keeping an eye on this.

Hey Gaijin,

 

It has been a few months since Aces of Thunder was announced. How about an official update from you guys as to how the game development is progressing or maybe some new short video clips showing user interfaces such as what aircraft trees and modifications so we can see if it is the same as War Thunder or something completely new ( or more VR emphasized).

 

Any kind of new update from you guys would be much appreciated.

 

Respectfully,
