Ok, first and foremost i gotta tell y'all that i retired once (but not permanently) from the game, at the time there was too low stuff and no high-end superplanes like the ADF-01, ADFX-02, XFA-27, GAF-1, X-02 and such. But what really hitted me back in time was the lack of the Sukhoi Su-37 Terminator, that plane (felt like it) was my signature plane since Ace Combat 4, the first AC i ever played, and hooked me on the series. Always liked that plane, and ain't gonna let it go for NO OTHER PLANE (except another Su-37, like Yellow 13 XD). So, after nearly a year away, i felt it was time to come back to the skies. Came back and i saw the tree expanded, and i finally saw it up there, on the topmost of the tree, the Su-37.

So, since then, i kept flying, and by not being an wallet warrior nor spending a single penny on the game, i keep hoarding the max gas as i can so at the time we get an another 6x-fuel-spending, i go all-out (as i did for the F-15 S/MTD Leo, had around 45 gas + 3 contracts of each) to finish upgrade my Su-37 to lv.15. Then, i'll max out an attacker, possibly the so-forgotten Su-25TM Frogfoot. Or maybe the multirole F-15 S/MTD Leo, just to fill in the performance table at it's page. After one of these, i'll go for the other. Then, for the Virgo plane, as it's my sign. Then, i dunno, fill completely the tech tree doesn't seems well worth it, although the best parts awaits at the end... well, probably after i level up these planes, i'll go for their SP.W. Then, probably i'll stop, as 1- I prefer a singleplayer games OVER multiplayer ones; 2- I'm saddened to know that this game has only 8 campaign missions. It could be the usual min. 18 missions, like AC4 and AC:Z (in a single run, that is) (AC:AH doesn't count); 3- The MR system is a bit faulty, as I feel it doesn't correctly measuresa player's skill, heck i've seen a (relatively) low-MR player (around 1620 MR) single-handedly achieved 100K points on the match (also he had an ~2200 cst. plane!) That couldn't be an average player i usually face with in co-ops! Also, i grow tired of these tournaments with prizes for 1000th (originally it was 200th) first ranks to get: emblems, planes and nicknames, and only the wallet warriors gains such stuff! Why not give a chance to us free player, so that we may even think in the future to contribute to the game? Nonononono, first let's reap our cash we sowed on the wallet warriors, and let US be sucked down with only wishes and dreams of such planes, emblems and nicks!!!

For now, tolerance still exists, although it corrodes every day. Also, i hope i can finish those planes so i can get the hell outta this game, and before Bandai Namco decides to cancel the support for this game, and then... all i can do from this point onwards is to imaginate.
