Hi,
I'm relatively new to Fred and these forums, but i am getting pretty good at it.
I am looking for people who are willing to make an extensive post-fs2 campaign and work via MSN.
My campaign will be called "Reconnections". 10 Years after the second incursion, the GTVA builds their own Knossos "Nostos" portal in delta serpentis, in hope to re-establish contact with the long lost Earth... Upon completion, you, the famous "alpha one", get called back from retirement for this historic moment : The reconnection towards Sol. The last few years were quite calm, without major battles... But of late, H.o.L and NTF Remnants have been more active of late, and have been doing unusual activities... Maybe related to the new portal...
Anyways, that's my idea of the campaign i am about to work on. I've already started the first two missions...
Hope you guys like and let's hope i can recruit people, lol...
Not to discourage you, but...
I swear I've read this post three or four hundred times before.
Hell, I've even WRITTEN this post.
Seriously, It's a great idea, and I think you should do it. However, I think you should first scroll down these forums, to the Hosted Projects section, and try and find one or two of them that appeal to you. If you find one, offer to FRED for them. This has several benefits:
1. you'll get experience FREDing.
2. You'll establish a reputation as a good FREDer, and that'll help convince people to join your projects (like this campaign.)
3. The Hosted Project will finish faster, which will free up talented Modders and FREDers (who are a rare commodity these days) to possibly work on your project.
All in all, you'll benefit greatly by starting with a Hosted Project, then trying this campaign.
EDIT: If you can't find a Hosted Project you like, you should also check out the ones over at HLP's sister site,
game-warden.com.
