How to be the Ace in Ace Combat



Are you the next ace of the skies? Do you get euphoric when you hear the song "Danger Zone"? Do you feel adrenalin start flowing when you hear a jet engine? Then you have already been playing the shiny uber realistic Ace Combat 6 for the Xbox 360.

Nonetheless, uber realistic also means uber hard, despite the fact there are only 15 missions. If those pesky Estovokians keep getting the better of you, and you are just too stubborn to give up the war, here are some strategies and cheats for Ace Combat 6 that will help you in the battle. You will find some great ways to snag Ace Points and buy stronger faster jets to help delve deeper into this game.



The Stud of the skies: CFA-44 Nosferatu
The best part of this game is getting the bad boy, CFA-44 Nosferatu. But the only way to do that is by completing the campaign on hard difficulty. It will cost $230,000, but it's well worth the cost to annihilate the aces out there so you can gain the coveted paint schemes for your aircraft.

Points of Interest
Assault records are a cool collection that shed light on the mysteries behind your medals and ribbons but just shows small details into the game's story. They are otherwise optional, unless you want to collect the paint job for the aircraft.

There are 45 entries in the assault records detailing the lives of soldiers you meet and defeat in battle. Nothing great, but some cool additional game content. While some are easy to unlock (after pre-selected missions), for the hard to find entries, you need to play a mission (campaign or free mission) on expert difficulty or higher, find the callsign within the mission, shoot them down, and then complete the stage.
Repeat -- if you target an enemy plane and see a callsign on this list, that's your ace. Shoot him down for the entry!
Additional Sweet Rides for the Skies
In addition there are planes that you can unlock throughout the game. Below is a list of planes that can be unlocked in normal difficulty. Defeat the mission listed for the corresponding planes.
• Default - F-16C Fighting Falcon
• Mission 4 - A-10-2 Thunderbolt / Mirage 2000
