That's why I mentioned make it like RE7...fully playable on both but fully immersed when vr
You realise that Assualt Horizon's mechanics are infinitely less suited to VR than standard Ace Combat, right?

I'm old enough now that I only see delays as a good thing.
Too many games have released too early.

Time to pull out that other flight game and wait.

i have waited a decade for a follow up to 6, i can wait a bit more.
Sure, sure.
Anyway, it sucks for people who was waiting for it.
Hope that Namco is working on new Ridge Racer too.

I don't get posts like this.
If Ace Combat 7 came out this year as planned, you'd just buy it or another game instead and spend less money buying it for cheaper later. It's not as if the games are going anywhere.
There's a lot I haven't gotten to playing from 2017, but it's okay with me because all it means is I'll buy them later for less money.

Waited 9 years for Persona 5 and I enjoyed the shit out of it.
I can wait some more for my most beloved franchise to engage under skies unknown. I'm ready for some Strangereal.
Ahahaha!!! Fuckin A man...

Mobius 1, altitude restrictions are not cancelled and you are not cleared to engage... yet!
I looked at the new screenshot of the delayed announcement and the lighting/colors bothered the hell out of me and I tried to fix it.
Crossposting from my reddit post:
tl;dr Vignetting is too heavy: all the shadow is overblown, vegetation in real life does NOT cast dark solid shadow like this.
Runway would cast reflected light onto the belly of the jet irl, giving it more color variation and richness. Again, this is simply how light physically works. It is very rare to see pitch black IRL because objects in environment will bounce light around. You will not get this heavy shadowing effect unless you are taking a really bad photo.
In summary: PA really needs to tone down their post processing effect. The overblown shadow is really, really killing the aesthetic and realism D: COME ON TECH ARTISTS, YOU CAN DO THIS DDDD:
The game also lacks waifu, that is an obvious point that really shouldnt need to be pointed out.

Its UE4, so a Switch version is probably easy to make, and Wii & 3DS had Ace combat ganes, or flight games from the same team
But if they don't want to make a Switch version or see no market they need no "excuse", when they already struggling to bring out the announced versions in the planned timeframe.

Some of us like VR and are looking forward to playing this game in VR. It won't hamper your enjoyment of the game in non-VR mode.
Something tells me they aren't getting the level of performance they need from Unreal Engine 4 on consoles. Just my guess.
Ah, the fuck have you been waiting for? Lol. Get yourself a PS2 and start playing. Jesus, can't wait for AC, and yet you sleep on some of the best AC games?
Good move Namco. This game would have been slayed in Q4.
Good to delay to a quieter time of year, and with added polish.
You got to have some pretty iron-clad balls to launch anything in Q4 that isn't a big tentpole release and expect solid results. Hell, even Titanfall 2 under-delivered.

Really hope they end up making it completely playable in VR like RE7. No reason why they shouldn't.
This will be another killer app.

Is there a good reason why the entire game can't be in VR?
I was ready to buy a flight stick for the first time ever. No way I'm doing that for three side missions though.

It requires more time and resources?

I heard in an interview with the developers of Farpoint the other day that it doesn't but even if it did, they just gave themselves both extra time and resources.
