one is not enough......

[uhoh7]

one campaign for the su25t is not enough.

 

I say this with respect.

 

 

I really think this is one reason why the sim has not caught on as well as it might. Its like having a TV with just a few shows.

 

 

With f4 you get 3 basic campaigns but they are extremely complex and never play exactly the same. We know a DC is next to impossible in LO.

 

What will keep end users going is new content. I would seriously suggest ED mobilise enthusiasts and get a team togther to start releasing new campaigns frequently as we move towards 1.2

 

just my 2 cents in advance of my 1.1 purchase

The campaign in 1.1 WILL NOT PLAY THE SAME ALWAYS.

 

THe AI has been improved.

 

That single campaign contains 70+ missions.

That single campaign contains 70+ missions.

 

Link?

 

I thought it was closer to 20.

 

There may also be a "training campaign" for Su-25T players to "warm up," but no promises.

From the main flaming cliffs page :

Three new campaigns are available: Su-25T Campaign (20 missions), Su-27 Campaign (26 missions), and a MiG-29 Campaign (28 missions)

[uhoh7]

a 20 mission campaign is a good start.

 

but will this be like we have now: you run mission 1 over and over till you win, then move to mission 2?

 

A good campaign should have consequences e.g. I survive, but don't inhibit attack, so in mission 2 I have to deal with the problem. This can be done without a DC, if flags to alternate campaign missions are possible.

sorry! I misread it.

 

IT IS TOTALLY including all plane campaigns 70+ missions. :P

 

quote :

 

"Three new campaigns have been created, with a total of 76 missions. Campaigns are included for the Su-25Ò, SU-27 and Mig-29.

"

actually I came up with an idea. It would be kewl if there were more campaigns in which u can play in different perspective. more clearly..SAME STORY LINE...but u play as a differrent role..eg: campaign xxx with su 25 for mission 1..but for some reason u need to pilot a su 27. Actually in a su 27 documentary it was mentioned that thats the reason most russian plane cockpits look similar...so that a pilot can jump from one plane to another without much of a learning curve.

Hi Aquarius!

 

Sorry, but this is the dumbest idea i've ever heard.

 

A strike aricraft pilot never can handle a fighter plane in combat and a fighter pilot never can handle a strike plane. Maybe they could fly with each others plane but they can't use it in combat.

They must learn the combat tactics, the planes performances, radar usage, weapons performances and so on.

Maybe after years of re-training they are able to use in combat a fighter/strike plane.

 

I could only image this situations:

 

1. Too few Su-25Ts are remaining operational and you must fight with a Su-25.

 

2. Your Su-25 squad re-equipped with Su-25Ts due to the heavy combat looses. But first you have to pass a quicky-course of Su-25T avionics. You have to be stay away from combat for weeks.

 

And same for the Mig-29A/S
