Preorder bonus worth the money ?
Should i buy the game right now at full expense or wait until preorder package drops down so i buy it cheaper with season pass. Are the bonuses that are coming with preorder deluxe edition worth their money ?

Well, I don't know about the deluxe edition goodies, as most of them haven't released yet. The emblems are just nostalgia fuel for people who came here via the prior games (mostly from the PS2 era of the series), and if you don't have that connection then they're probably meaningless to you.

The F-104C (Avril) is interesting, though. It's completely unarmed, and meant purely for entertainment flying. It's fun to take it out on free flights and just screw around. But unless you actually want it for that reason--and for completing your list of planes, of course--then no, it's not worth much in its own right.

Don't know about the rest of the DLC, the new missions and planes. Since everything related to them seems to involve a bunch of spoilers, I've been avoiding information like the plague.

The music player isn't really a big deal.


As to the launch edition's goodies? Well, that's a bit different. While the skins are pretty much exactly the same as the deluxe emblems (nostalgia fuel), the bonus F-4E is pretty good, in my opinion. Solid, workhorse plane that can tool along nicely in air-to-air and air-to-ground roles. It's pretty good in the early missions, where the low payload isn't much of an issue.

If it were me? I'd get the launch edition while the bonuses for that are still being offered. The DLC can wait.
Don't get the DLC yet. Gonna be a while until that's out.

The dlcs tho are gonna cost more separately than directly buying the season pass, 3 aircrafts and 3 missions will cost 5€ each not counting the music player and the season pass costs 25€ and it contains everything

-I S ranked a late mission with the F4E.

It's a very good strike bomber. It carries 18 bombs no parts 32 with parts. Per Mrp it's the best planeI IMHO.
I dont the the season pass is worth it firefly for the "avril" plane though.

Thanks for the opinions. I m also a player from ps1 and 2 era games but. In 2018 everything is a bit much more wallet focused. And then i saw those crazy negative reviews and got confused.

I won't say to ignore the negative reviews, because there was reason for a lot of them, but those reasons really only apply to you if HOTAS controls, 4k, or ultra-wide display are something you care about. If you just want the sort Ace Combat that you remember from consoles, but on your PC, then this scratches that particular itch very nicely.

Yeah, you might not even be interested in the DLC by the time it comes out. Happens to me all the time. Witcher 3, Bioshock: Infinite, blah blah. Season Passes are just a way to double-tip and my anus is raw from all the ones I got because I had more cash than sense at the time.
Phantom F-4E #PSP GEN1 OG <- right here (it is a preorder bonus in AC7) unless u can complete the ace combat x skies of deception with just that little start plane on hard OOOOOOOOOOOH buddy u aint any good so now all the OG / masocrists gonna do the entire campaign on hard
