Status on War in Heaven
on: December 25, 2008, 11:57:55 pm
Would we please be able to have a progress report on War in Heaven? Like how many missions are FREDed, models done, voice acting etc etc.

Havnt heard anything from it in a while.

I'm not sure how useful a progress report would be, since it won't give any indication of how long it will be until it's done.

If you want an idea of how much work has been done, then the modpack is pretty much complete (ships, weapons, audio) with just a bit of interface work to do for some of the new ships. 14 missions are FREDed. There's no set mission limit so the final campaign might have any number of missions. To help speed mission design I'm having two shorter campaigns covering two storylines running parallel to each other.

Voice acting won't get touched until after release (and most likely not until after the first chapter's voice acting is complete).

Damn fine! Sounds like it's coming along smoothly. 14 missions is impressive.

Man this campaign is so good

It's completely put me off any other mod campaigns since it's release

Now I can't tolerate anything without a fully immersive storyline, talking protagonist, and 3D Plot


Thanks a lot Darius    :mad:


hehe  :lol: joking well done

While I have similar feelings, I recommend Silent Threat Reborn and Transcend. Give 'em a shot if you want equivalent quality.

STR is indeed epic awesomenessage. Transcend is somewhat different, though. More like "When you play it, you'll **** bricks" sort of stuff. Entertaining, nonetheless.

Transcend is so funny with Microsoft Mike. It totally ruins the atmosphere of the campaign.

STR is certainly perhaps the best campaign I've played - competing with BP. The voice acting was just brilliant.  :yes:

Quite true, what really amused me where
Spoiler:
those shivan noises on the mission where the abaddon appears... wow, I mean WOW!
just like in BP, but with a little more diversity.
