My two brothers and me finally have a decent LAN setup and at least two of us are very passionate about FreeSpace 2.

While playing through the main campaign cooperatively is quite entertaining, we would really like to try other campaigns. However, I can't seem to find any reliable information on which exist.

Are FS2 Open campaigns multiplayer compatible by default? If not, is there a list of all multiplayer campaigns somewhere?


(and no need to welcome me with the banner, I've been lurking for a while and even posted a few times)

Campaigns for multiplayer aren't that popular because there is no way to save your progress. There are plenty of multiplayer missions for FS2 and FS2_Open though.

There are a few multiplayer campaigns in the Port as well.

It's true that as is, multiplayer campaigns are pretty much unplayable.

But I don't mind; even what I call the "main campaign" I play as "mission 1, then mission 2, then...". I just have to remember what missions we've completed.

FSOpen does come with a lot of multiplayer content, but I was wondering what else is in store.

Perhaps the largest problem is that fan mission designers do not have the possibility to test multiplayer missions. Even testing and bugfixing a single mission takes much time. Asking your friend/co-tester to play the mission over and over again is a complicated thing.
