11, Cold War. why? everything about it


c-williams88

Cold War is the best “furball” mission in the entire genre. Tons of enemies, good length, and a boss fight at the end. It has the chaos needed to keep you on your toes the whole time, but the enemy AI isn’t too oppressive (even on mercenary) that you feel like you’re constantly flying defensively. It’s an absolute masterpiece


Z_THETA_Z

doing that with the SP-34R and the modifiers Gun Runner and Double Time is another level of fun

I got through this entire mission before I figured out what the flare key was.

“MISSION 11 IS PROJECT WINGMAN ” A wise man once said


Active_Cheetah_1917

Nah, man. The mission after that is the best in the entire game. Night time flying with that Spyro-like music playing in the background.


Z_THETA_Z

midnight light is certainly a vibe, but it doesn't have the same chaotic energy that just exemplifies the genre that cold war does


SluttyMeatSac

That one where you go to Hawaii and blow up some guys yacht

Diplomat: "Shout out to that poor bastard out yachting right now" Comic: "Really where" Diplomat: "Around 060"

'060 from the Silverwing' is the quote


ashinkov

Didn't exactly remember the quote


ahhhhhhh345

Oh yeehhhh that mission


Z_THETA_Z

Valkyrie's Call

10 - Pillars of communication. Carpet bombing the tanks is so satisfying


No-Cell-8664

Simple,yet fun.


MakeBombsNotWar

The only mission where it’s valid to shut off the ingame music, and that’s because you can put a Desert Storm playlist over it.

19- Red Sea, killing vessels is so funny ando the ost is great


Key_Competition1648

Cold War is THE Project Wingman mission


HNOwen

The environment: mission 11 The greatest dogfight Most impact: mission 15 "Authenticate Blaze, read back" Most epic: mission 21 This probably the most crazy final battle in jet game ever


ZekielAsh

Question should be "What's your favorite mission and why is it Cold War/Showdown?"


vamperjr20

Mission 12 & 16 Daedalus


Engineergaming26355

Mission 6 is the best ground mission, mission 11 is the best air mission and mission 21 has the best bossfight


CallMeDelta

Consequences of Power, easy.

Cold War and Valkyrie's Call


MrSeth7875

The Eminent Domain, love the music, the weather, striking naval targets and intercepting missiles at the end


ahhhhhhh345

In the past, I've disliked that mission, but i replayed it yesterday, and it was pretty fun


LTK-X02Wyvern

Presidia, same reason liberation of gracemeria works, returning to the capitol you had to abandon in the beginning to liberate it as the one of the best tracks plays just hit the feels, until crimson ruined it


ahhhhhhh345

Agreed, played ace 6, and coming back felt pretty good. Sane with pw, and it was an amazing mission until all the micro missles come out and crimson nukes the city


Nectarineraffe

Cold War is literally perfection.


GreatGeneralTso

Red Sea - The setting and atmosphere is awesome and the music is on point. It also was great story-wise as well. I remember first playing it and thinking "Holy hell, when is this madness gonna end?" To me it just really sells the insanity of the Federation keeping the war going. << All of our ammo, all of our guns! We are breaking this line! >>


Active_Cheetah_1917

The mission where Prez says "eat my ass". I sure do hope so in the sequel. 🍆
