Agent Runedragon reporting!
I haven't been around due to missions (or lack thereof, not sure the whole process and just too shy to ask about it) and I have a doozy of a Sue. Approach with caution, this Sue is dangerous. She had trained several Autobots through breastfeeding to carry out her orders. I repeat, approach with caution!

While the story is definitely on the "wut" side of things, commenting with "You're insane, aren't you" is not a good way to go about doing things.
That said, it appears that this story is part of a series. If you're not planning on taking it on, I think I'll start on the series once I manage to get myself Permission. -
Huh, I'd just been reading about this one elsewhere. by

I don't know the canon well enough to tackle it and don't have the time right now for a whole new mission, just felt I had to comment because it's a really weird coincidence, heh.

I can't read the fic (I do not have a Deviant account), but it looks like something horrible.
*jump on a fighter jet and prepares to take off*
Er, I took the "scramble" in military sense. I'm STILL playing too much Ace Combat 5. But I love it. And I'm really sure the the PPC could use a fighter squadron. I mean, we've got Sun Crushers, TARDISes and portals, a couple fighters are nothing. And AC ones shoud be easy to pilot enough to keep Agent casualties low. -

I myself have a dA account, though it's gone months without so much as a new journal. I'd comment, but since this Suethor is apparently another product of the "remotely derogatory remark = tantrum-inducing personal attack" school of thought, I'd be asking for trouble. Not worth getting reported for someone so petty.
Makes no difference one way or the other; I've already claimed a fic as my first target, so I'll leave this one at the mercy (or lack thereof) of the rest of the Agency. -

I'll stick to the ground. I'm more comfortable having an assault rifle or shotgun in hand than a joystick, though, the idea of cruising at G-Force in the air is thrilling and gives me an adrenaline rush, I'm better at pointing at shooting. First-Person shooters are my forte.

I am quite good at driving games, and I managed to complete some missions of AC5 at Ace difficulty. However, I am quite weak in First Person Shooters, the only difficulty in which I am able to complete any gamme is Easy.

There's one I want your opinions about.

Hermione Granger takes to the air in her F/A-27 Ravenclaw as the skies become the battleground for those seeking revenge.
Rated: T - English - Adventure - Chapters: 6 - Words: 6,515 - Reviews: 11
What is it? A potential good crossover or a complete mess? I cannot say for sure. Maybe because English is not my first language. However, there are some errors only about Hermone's (thats it, Hermione is apparently an ace pilot) plane:
1) There is no such thing as a F/A-27 (the XFA-27 never became a production fighter in AC canon)
2) Wrong missiles: the XFA-27 has AIM-9M Sidewinders, but the fic states the F/A-27 uses MM-7s, whatever they are, and starts with a loadout of 26 missiles and 2 QAAMs, that doesn't make sense both in Ace Combat canon (worst loadout I know of are 52 missiles and 6 QAAMs on a rather scrappy plane) and in reality.
3) Wrong engines: the XFA-27 has two engines with unknown technology, the fic states that the F/A-27 has four pulse detonation ones. Believable about the pulse detonation engines, but where the hell are supposed to be the two extra ones? This guy is confusing the XFA-27 with the YR-302 Fregata, the special ability of the XFA-27 is to fire up to four missiles at once instead of two.
Since the fic relies a lot on equipment description, giving out each one wrong is not good. -
