High Noon
Dilmah G-ified
My take on what High Noon should've been. The biggest threat to GTVA space is now met by the rest of the GTVA, rather than a lone bomber wing.
Features:
- An electro-rock soundtrack, free rights music courtesy of www.freeplaymusic.com, Electro-Rock Overdrive vol.5
- Too many ships to effectively count :D
- Testing by: eliex, Renegade Paladin, rbxplayer, TacOne, and Commander Zane
- Just play it already :lol:
Requires:
- 3.6.10 Mediavps
- Most recent nightly build for your OS
- FSO
- A half-decent PC, don't cry to me if the FPS cracks its head on a wall

Yay, I got credited! :D
Great job (again).
I just played this version, and everything seemed to work exactly as it should.
So: get this voice acted and make it the first official replacement mission for the FS2 Campaign.

Alright. :)
I'll be able to play this one soon.
Does the Infinity fly into the bottom-most engine section of the Colossus when anyone else plays it? :confused:

That is all dependent on how long you take to disable the forward beam cannons, which triggers the Infinity's arrival.

Not bad... though I prefer FS2 music. :p And there's a spelling error in the briefing (this is hour finest hour), and it is a bit of a BoA mission after you take out the beam turrets - just staying alive apparently is sufficient for passing the mission on normal difficulty. Nevertheless I liked it. Especially the cutscene. :yes:

mmmmm.....scrrreeeeeeens :p
Well I would recommend most people who are proficient playing FS play at a difficulty between Medium-Insane, where staying alive and accomplishing the secondary objective becomes half the fight. Music is really a personal preference thing, I just put it in because I had it lying around and it was the first soundtrack I'd got to work so I was naturally proud of it :D. The Briefing issue is one our testers didn't pick up, but I suppose their efforts were directed elsewhere, but nonetheless I'll go through and fix it in my version.
As long as someone seemed to like it I feel I accomplished what I set out to do as my first official mission, which was to make sure at least 75% of the feedback isn't "d00d_u_relly_suck_stop_making_missions". I think I could've done better with the cutscene, maybe draw it out and use it to take up at least 2 minutes :lol:, I've made almost a campaign's worth of cutscene missions to amuse myself while trying to put off homework so I may be looking at it from a different p.o.v.

Since fighters can't effectively hurt the Sathanas, that's kind of inevitable. The same is true of the original High Noon in the campaign; you can plink away at the juggernaut all you want, but the Colossus is doing all the work.

Though I always finish the mission with the Sathanas kill... :P
This is the first mission I could beat on Insane. :lol:

That is very true. Which is why I tried to alleviate the boredem by giving the Sath an escort and assigning the player to destroy it/disarm it (the smart choice).

Sorry for necro, but I wonder if someone wonder :D about remaking the whole FS2 Campaign? I played this mission along with new "Their Finest Hour" and new "Dunkerque" and such remakes throw a lot of fresh air. I know that some guy remade whole FS1 campaign and it was very good, since I finished playing it I always wanted to have a FS2 remake.
-
Jeez, that's a big ask mate.
But I'm working on-and-off on a mission set that takes place during the same time as the last few missions of the FS2 Campaign. I think a more viable alternative at the moment is to FRED a campaign that runs concurrent to the FS2 main campaign. :)
-
I started an alternate final mission some time ago. I'll find it later and upload it to the Fred academy later this afternoon.
