Holy schiznits, man, you ARE kidding with the "Jake Wars", right?

Besides, I can't decide between Shrouding the Light and the Blackwater Operations demo campaign.

At least they were decent. Actually, I'm thinking of adding Unholy Alliance.

I haven't play so many user-campaigns so far and I liked none of them. It is hard to consider any of them even 'ONLY SLIGHTLY BAD', so I am unable to say which the best is.
DEM would be a good one if I knew how to complete the ETAK mission.
Neo-Terra would be a good one if the creator tested the missions at least twice or three times.
Derelict might be average if there were fewer bugs and the Escort missions would not make you mad(you lose the mission after 15 minutes).
Homesick . . . somehow the same as Derelict, it is very aggreviating and the plot line is simply gappy.

Inferno is'n done yet
TBP is buggy and incomplete
and Jake War was not really a good Champaign.

Derelict

agreed with TopAce.
though i liked deusexmachina :D
we should have more of those humour-ironyc campaigns!
oh yeh.
here is an official how-should-i-call-it(dunno) for my campaign
spoilers? probably not too many

Name: Man Is Obsolete
Plot:
Spoiler:
Actually alternate story... in capella with alpha 1 as the last another shivan saty jumped to the node with overwhelming forces. the destroyer supposed to enter the node to kill it malfunctioned and blew up right when it supposed to enter the node. thus it vaporized 1/4 of refugee's from capella. the malfunction was suspicioned to be actually a sabotage(have to work out the plot though). it took out everything in the 60k of the ship was vaporized.
last of the refugees exit the cappela node only to find that there isnt anything alive in vega(or is it epsilon pegasi.. dunno gotta check) saty emerges behind them quite banged up and tries to transmit to horrified terrans & vasudans(bosch anyone). it actually seems to be a juggernauth with a somewhat odd crew. terran-shivan hybrids.
they seemed to be friendly but you cant tell anything when talking to a shivan.


this is a solo project so dont expect something *very* fancy... it will be a rather weird story of duality.
there will also be an speed up mod.
and it *WILL* be explained in the plot.
Spoiler:
T-S hybrids will share some technology with the GTVA

see ya. im off to test some missions now.

I've never played Warzone, and as for Homesick I never got as far as Mission 5 because every time I got there the game crashed.

How could you say that about Derelict?? You probably have a different version... Did you play v1.0? And the only bugs are that it doesn't have sound files in the installer. I got some from volition watch in the demo missions. I emailed Agatheron and Kellan for the voices, but no reply. Screw 'em. The plot is great!

I've revised the poll in a different thread. Knock yourselves out.

I do not know which version I was playing, all I know is that I will never touch that campaign again. By the way, I said nothing bad about Derelict's plot.

Don't know. I haven't gotten that far yet. :p

Let's move our conversations to my other poll, shall we? This one is now... *shoves sign in front of thread* CLOSED!
Title: Best Campaign
Post by: Kosh on November 27, 2004, 02:37:18 pm
I seriously think that Shrouding the Light should be added here.

Derelict got my vote, Inferno was a runner up.
Title: Best Campaign
Post by: Cobra on November 27, 2004, 02:39:48 pm
Go ahead and vote for both in my new poll. *shoves bigger sign in front of thread* This poll thread is closed.

[Edit] I've never heard of Shrouding the Light. That's why it's not in my polls. :p

I'm going to go with Blaise's work so far.  

I loved Sol : A History and Homesick and would give them top marks for best campaign.    

I haven't had a chance to play Shrouding Light but I will when I get the chance.

It's a "Mod" for Inferno, you require Inferno R1 to play this Campaign.

ntgm1r, try replacing the Inferno main hall with the original one.
