**Spoilers** RAILGUN WARNING
I was excited to fight the land battleship in this game from the trailers. Much like Stonehenge or megalith from ace combat 4 a new super weapon type threat is always cool in these games however we see this weapon very early on in the campaign and then again and again and again. Each time the way we take it out is slightly different but the same issue persists. The railgun removes what makes ace combat enjoyable the ability to freely fly and dogfight. I get how the railgun works in principal you see where its targeting with the laser then have to fly away to avoid but in practice when going for S ranks you just go for objectives and usually avoid the railgun unless it gets a lucky hit.

yeah; the railguns just aren't that big a threat. They should probably have done a project-wingman esque thing where the railguns leave energy trails for a bit that still rough up your plane. also that would make em more visible.
They could at least turn the dam warning off.

I would say dodging railgun for 20 minutes straight is just boring and repetitive, the safest strategy is to fly near to the ground so the railgun do not have enough depression angle and never hit, but still boring.
Nah, the railguns are great. Just skill issue.
generally not that bad if you keep low altitude, harder to do that in the later encounters though
