No nickname for leveling up the Zipang.

No luck with the "Zipang" yet, I'm holding leveling my F-14 until I got it.

Took me nearly 40 matches to get it.
I've got the Aircraft Tree pretty opened up at this point (just started research on the Eurofighter Typhoon) but I mainly stick to three planes depending on the mission:
-a lv4 Mirage 2000-5 became my main recently after finally figuring out multirole aircraft combine sufficient benefits from the other two classes; I use the Mirage on most missions
-a lv4 Su-24M is the weapon of choice for the Aerospace Center Defense; recently cracked 60k points in a single mission with it
-a lv5 F-16C for Moby Dick Pursuit missions; two salvos of 4AAM strip most of Gyges' defenses while keeping you out of harms way before you move in and destroy the rest
I'm itching to switch to fancier planes but I find a lot of them to have non appealing default secondary weapons, which means I'd have to level them up to make them useful to me. Frankly right now I'd rather spend the money towards getting the Su-35, the Rafale and opening up the rest of the tree.

Zipang Lv3 is a huge upgrade. Feels about equal to my Lv5 F14 besides the shitty HCAA
Edit: How would you guys feel if the Wardog F14 is a paid plane?
Only reason I can think that it would be added this early is because it will be on the store next week.

Man 6AAMs have absolutely no range in this.
Zipang Lv 4 is only around 60K credits.

So whats the consensus on the single player campaign? is it any good? worth spending $20 for the campaign ticket? (my internet is crap so no multiplayer for me)
I barely get 2-3 bars on multiplayer and do fine. In all honesty, its not PVP, so as long as your connection is stable enough to last a match, go for it.

It's fun, but if you don't play online then you won't be able to unlock any planes for you to use yourself. You would have to rely on the rental planes that the game gives you. Not to mention that if you get disconnected while you're playing a mission then the game will just send you back to the title screen. Even if you're playing single player.

Yeah you can't even get past the title screen without being signed in.
That being said I have played loads of matches with a red connection and do fine.
Same here. And there's no point in kicking people for connection either (dodge crappy hosts of course) but the game handles itself just fine.
I like the campaign - but its very easy to see that that 20 bucks for it is going a long ways. They'll be adding a lot more to it in the future most likely by episode or something.

How do I enter one of those servers?
Download the TeamSpeak3 client from http://www.teamspeak.com/ and enter the address and port listed here to the connection details in the client. You don't have to join the TeamSpeak server, I just don't think we'll be using in-game VOIP.

Goddamn! get kicked back to the title screen even in SP?! my internet has been so bad lately i cant even get on PSN to buy stuff let alone play MP.
MY beautiful AC, our last great time together was in AC6 :-(
We can use PSN messages too to relay info to those who aren't on the Teamspeak server and are playing.

That would be cool.
Sent a friend request.
I'm not sure yet how we'll handle it, but I might try hosting the room since the ping doesn't really matter too much in Infinity.

I would try to host, my the time I tried it was red in the icon lol
You need to play the co-op mode, win credits and then use the hangar to buy/upgrade planes you'll slowly unlock.
No planes on Campaign mode

mcz was able to join me so I will try to host.
Lol I see. Haven't played co-op yet so I kept thinking I was doing something wrong.
So under connections, the highlighted sections are "connect" and "Server List" I can't seem to figure out where to input the address and port.
We have a full lobby, if there are any others wanting in, let me know via a PM and I'll let you know if we have a open slot.
Press connect and in the server address box enter 185.16.85.83:10011
