No-ones forcing you to wait for it or download it :p

But yes, that's the essence of it, big campaigns are a vacuum, and it will suck time, resources and imagination from everyone who is part of it. People will leave, new people will join, the campaign becomes a living thing, constantly changing and growing until even the person who created it isn't sure what's going to happen in the final version. At least one problem you won't have to deal with is HTL conversions, which caught a few campaigns on the hop, since most of their ships were pre-HTL.

Who's waiting?  I put my hours into FRED, rather than into swallowing the hype that these uber projects crap out.

 
Hey all. Sorry i've been out of the loop for so long, had some IRL issues.

To those concerned about the daunting size of this campaign, yes, it is large, which is why we're deciding to cut a few corners and chop it up piece meal. We're working on doing the mission scripting and modelling first, then progress onto the other sections of the campaign designing.

We're also recruiting good new talent.

We're making progress, so don't worry. It won't crash and burn.  ;)

Which is coming from the project leader, who has the most ambition. Right now I'm weary about the project, only little has been made, and the hardest part of it (FREDding) has yet to begin. Right no I'm a tiny bit afraid that this may die before it even gets started, but if progress picks up when the needed models are completed, then there's a good chance this could get out as an excellent and polished project.

  
I'm breaking it down in sections. Relax man. Once we've got the models down, we can get onto the FRED'ing.

Be positive, not negative.  ;)
