Out of Game: Yeah, I said I will rule the skies in ace, that doesn't mean I will, since only one person in the entire squadron heard of it, so we get laughed at, mocked and bullied by the American pilots after losing, then I punch one of them in the face....... I know what you mean, and I was planning on losing a few battles, for character developing.
yah.... you know maybe it would be better if they werent being bullies, you know a sort of comraderie, remember you two just fought together, I would doubt that there would be malice between the two sides. Especially because Japan and America are very close politically. I would just prefer if it were you know...an even sort of thing.

Out of Game: Gotcha, I wanted to have a arcade fight
Oh well Out of Game: Gotcha, I wanted to have a arcade fight
OUT OF GAME: Oh and he just got slammed into the Tetris machine. Ohhh and Jeff Hardy jumped off the Pac-Man and Swantonned Batista.
Can we get back to the game?
They first reviewed the controls and had two practice rounds with the AI. Yamato Squadron got a challenger, the Saints Squadron from the carrier Ford. Shogun and his squadron put on their headsets. They picked F/A-22s, Saints Squadron picked F-16s, F/A-22s, Su-34s, and MiG-35s ( trust me F/A-22 is not nearly as good in the game, but it is still decent ). They got a good grip on their Ace Edges, the Saints Squadron said,
"Kid, we are naval aviators, you can't beat us,"
Shogun then said,
"We will see,"
They then begun the match.

It was a good round, with expertly executed aerial combat maneuvers, extreme evasion, and impossible maneuvers. It was a stalemate for five minutes, nobody got a kill. Ayumu fired a missile at their leader, then fired a missile soon afterward. He and Hiroto fired numerous missiles at unpredictable, but short intervals, while firing their cannons. Hiroto fired a jamming missile, then Ayumu went in for the kill letting off 10 missiles. While all this time, the rest of the squadron is holding the Saints back Shogun then said,
"Yamato 4, you are pretty good at this,"
Ayumu replied,
"Sir, I play this game quite a bit,"
They responded by firing multiple volleys of missiles at Shogun and Masaru. Shogun tried to go low just slightly above the ocean and do a quick cobra hoping to make the missile crash into the waves. It did not and killed Shogun. The two leaders were out first.
Out of Game: I actually tried it in the game, didn't work very well.

? I would think a tracking device would be somewhat hard to do.... but okay.
In game:
We had been searching for a long time when I just saw something that attracted my attention. It was a sign on the beach and when I magnified the image it had a picture of an anchor with an X drawn through it...
Something about it...
I had to remember where it was from I started asking officers and crewmembers if they had ever seen one. They all said it was familiar it's just that they didn't know from where. We were all puzzled but after an hour some ensign piped up. "Hey, I know what that is! They have those on the beaches where they lay communication lines, they put the signs there so you don't let down the anchor and rip it up!"
Than we all had the same epiphany. That sign meant that you were not supposed to weigh anchor because you would tear a communications wire...that meant there was a communications wire there, and if there was a wire there that meant it could be tapped. We rapidly sent a message to Moscow and they were speechless. "It was so simple!" They told us they would start figuring out how to attach a giant wiretap to it.
OOC: This was actually a true story. Some CIA agent was on vacation in the Hamptons, the whole agency and the FBI was working day and night trying to figure out how to crack the impenetrable soviet communications between naval bases. On vacation he saw a sign on the beach saying not to weigh anchor there because there was a communications line under water (I have been sailing before and have personally seen these sorts of signs before, they are even on maps for ships). He though to himself that the soviets must have the same thing to keep people from tearing their communications lines underwater. Sure enough, after sending a spy submarine to take pictures they found the signs, and they attached underwater capsules to the lines and wiretapped them for years.

Ummm...... ummm...... it's... the... future?
We have to use stuff that is not WAY too far off ( maybe for instruments and stuff? or a video game? ) or present day for most of the stuff.
Yamato and Saints killed each other, one by one, slowly, until Ayumu and Hiroto are the only ones alive in Yamato, the Saints had Saint 5 and Saint 8 left. Saint 8 is fighting Hiroto, while Saint 5 is fighting Ayumu in one on one air duels. It was amazing and took quite sometime, in the end, Hiroto got shot down after dealing heavy damage to Saint 8. Ayumu got shot down later when he got both of the Saints on him. Yamato Squadron lost the match. They took off their headsets, they could hear loud cheering outside.
Out of Game: Saints are actually a real squadron, John McCain served on it. So did James Stockdale, one of the most decorated officers in the US Navy, he was the highest-ranking officer captured ( a Wing Commander during the Vietnam War ).

I didnt mean it was impossible...well....it sort of is.... but it may work. But it really is just as unlikely to hack the sub's computers. The reason isn't so much that attaching the device is hard, but launching a torpedo carrying the tracker requires the submarine to expel a lot of air to shoot it out of the tube. It takes all of half a second for a good sonar operator to hear it, than the torpedo has to use active guidance so it's active sonar starts up and starts pinging the submarine. At normal ranges it could easily take 15 to 20 minutes for a torpedo to reach a stationary submarine, by that time you could release lot's of countermeasures and the torpedo would miss. Hacking also doesnt work namely because to hack a computer you need to be able to access it, and to do that it must either have an internet connection or you must literally be there typing into it... But they do have big old farraday cages around submarines to deaden EMF radiation and emmission to avoid detection by surface ships but it also prevents a network from pentrating...
Out of Game: So I think Omega should just stick with his idea of homing device. Internet connection....maybe a crew member playing MW2 or WoW on the sub's computers
I am just joking.
