So, on December (maybe) I challenged Knight Valfodr in one of his videos about achieving S-rank on MiG-21, specifically on DLC (SP) mission 3 "Ten Million Relief Plan", but turns out, I end up having C-rank, the lowest you can get while playing Ace Combat 7 (e.g. kill all targets and loiter around until time runs out and use checkpoints if you crash or time runs out, which as a matter of fact, you can stay in one mission for an hour). I had to be frank, my joystick controls (USB to PS2 joystick) are too stiff; in Windows controller settings, small analog stick movement can be detected just as you're playing a PS2 or PS1 "DualShock" controller (classic old times, eh?) on a console, but when used on PC, especially on Steam games or a controller emulator such as X360CE, it barely reads any small analog stick movement. What I mean about this is that you slightly move the analog stick to make the game read an input on the joystick, which the game then respond based on that small input (usually in GTA games, the character you play will go walking, whereas in any Ace Combat game, the plane moves slowly). You have to be at between 50% to 75% full movement of analog stick to make the game in PC (especially Steam games) respond to what it is similar to "small analog stick movement".
Console-ported games like Ace Combat 7 and NARUTO SHIPPUDEN: Ultimate Ninja STORM 4 can be a case of this. You have to be at between 50% to 75% full analog stick movement to make the character walk or the plane moves slowly, which is kinda hard compared to when I play older Ace Combat games on PS2, where it can detect slow movement on the plane by just pushing a bit of the analog stick to any direction you want to go.
Playing on keyboard/mouse is the best bet, but button press will automatically go into full movement. And because PS2 controllers that connected to PC can't detect button pressure, yawing the plane will always go into the full movement.
So, how to bypass this, you may ask. Changing game controller to PS3 or PS4 is perhaps the best course of action, but they're expensive, unlike the PS2 and their consoles that already stopped its production by Sony. And of course, it's a wireless joystick that uses Bluetooth (?) technology to connect to the console. Need to buy a dongle if I want to play with PS3/PS4 joystick.
I've already followed the instructions to the letter, but the stiff joystick movement is really unsettling, but at least I have fun with it. Crashed twice in the making of this video, BTW.
Above is his video I'm talking about. Mine is below.
I hope that this can be a reference that not just me who wanted to get an S-rank with only machine guns. Everybody can try this, right?
