Aren't there multiple games where blowing up refugee tents is an option that you get points for? I remember so many jokes during 9's A-10 mission blowing up the oil fields, like "Yeeaaaaaaaah!! We're devastating a nation's economy and likely fucking up global supply chains making innocent civilians suffer and fucking things up for everyone in multiple surrounding nations! Yeeaaaaaaah! We're the heroes!"
Lost Kingdom is the closest to that in AC7 where you bomb and raid the refugee camp for supplies.
 
@indomitable snowman Have you tried Xenia Edge? It worked for me with Ninja Gaiden 2 where Canary didn't.

Xenia Edge is yet another experimental fork of the Xenia emulator, originally based on Xenia Canary. The focus is on faster iteration, higher default game compatibility, usability and platform support.

Edit: I tried it myself and experienced the same bugs other users reported. (Bugged cutscene audio, pixelated smoke/cloud effects, etc.)

Okay but being a war criminal in an arcade shooter is really fun. Besides the only way to play Zero right is to be a Mercenary.
 
AC6 does seem to be a step up in difficulty compared to 4/5/0. I like have more ammo and mission timers are extremely generous. It also seems like my wingmen are actually effective and I feel like this is the most powerful machine gun in any I've played.
Question for the experienced, Is it possible to beat all objectives on every mission? I feel bad when focus in on objective A, then B gets hammered and by the time I get over there it failed and my guys are pulling out.

Not really, the missions usually progress when a set number of objectives are completed. So you can't complete all of the objectives in any of those missions in one run. However, you can complete all missions without failing any objectives if you're good at bouncing between theaters (from memory, 6 and 13 are really tough to do this on).
 
Played through the first two missions. Seems to run better than either the current canary build or the old forked build of xenia that was specifically for AC6. Cutscene audio works fine but the first cutscene had the audio running about 2s behind the subtitles/visuals for some reason. The other cutscenes were fine. In the in-engine cutscenes the planes have white shadows and the distant LOD models seem to have a fuzzy white/green outline. Unfortunately, the engine smoke from the missiles seems to be missing as well. Considering how many allies/enemies are present on any given mission throwing missiles around, that's actually a pretty big loss.

The decomplier just got released after, maybe, two or three months in development. We'll be seeing a lot more 360 games getting the same treatment.

I am sure all current issues are going to be fixed soon. I am just happy the game is finally free of its 360 prison and we don't have to wait for the emulation to improve.

The audio in the cutscenes working at all is a godsend when (re)playing the game.
 
Mint Fantome did another AC4 stream. I'll check /aceg/ and /vt/ later to see if she's leaked anything new about AC8 by accident again.
 
AC6 is decompiled, niggers nuggets!

Right as I finish the xbox version.
:lossmanjack:

Speaking of finishing the game. The plot made no scene, I thought the woman and child were my family the whole time. I guess they were just some other random pilots family? And the bad guy just decided to betray his country because he liked the city?
Also the CFA-44 might have the best special weapon of any plane. It's just an immediate win button lol.
 
The recompilation project for AC6 is interesting if it progresses, but based on the video and the stuff in their Discord, it seems like it has most, if not all, the same issues as the emulator right now.
