I'd be happy to help translate that Revenge - The Final Conflict campaign.

What?:confused: Say into my face that this doesnt sound at least a bit interesting! Darkwarrior is no ship-modeler, so he took the things included in FS2.
You cant judge about this campaign, if you didnt even play it...

@ Pilot Of The US: I dont think that Darkworrior is still active here, so i cant say whats the status of the translation. But i think its canceled too, cause he has no time for this. (Theres very much text inside RFC)

It doesn't. In fact, it sounds like just a really really frickin' long n00b campaign.

I tried mission one. It was okay. Just some minor issues. The briefings/cbs were too lengthy, for my taste. Plus they introduced way too many characters at once. Yet, I had almost forgotten about that HoL-mind-thingie. Good thing that personnel report in the cb reminds you, just in case you forget your identity. Great-War-Syndrome may result in Amnesia, as we all know.

Where was I?

Ah, the mission. Well, the enemy fighters were acting rather odd on a yeah-let's-send-a-single-wing-every-now-and-then-to-make-sure-teh-alphas-have-enough-time-to-kill-it basis. But that's forgivable. However, I still wonder how that vasudan cruiser (without fighter escort, of course) is supposed to blockade the jump node if it's positioned at the opposite side of the node, at a distance of 4000 klicks? Not to mention my fighter got Maxims. Yee-ha!

Did I mention that I had win AND lose-debriefing at the same time? Both texts were displayed. Plus I left the battlefield without permission. I was allowed to proceed nonetheless.  Cool.

But apart from that, it was really interesting. ;)

:mad: ;) It isnt. Play it and you will see. Dont judge about this campaign basing only on my small summary.

@ mitac:

Yeah, youre right, the first mission is buggy. Dont know how he could overlook this, but he did^^.
As i already said, the missions are not that perfectly scripted as in other campaigns, but i think, and hopefully you too, that with 88 missions its nearly impossible to get them bugfree in a reasonable amount of time. And he worked nearly a half year on those missions, and thats quite a long time (only fredding).

And i say it again, if you just look at one or two missions, you may find it boring, but if you understand german and play all three chapters, the great story will compensate for the fredding errors.
Ah and you said its abit much text in the first briefing...well uhm your at the beginning of an 88-missions long campaign, so whats abnormal with this? In this briefing you find out something about your own char, Commander Rendent, about your wingmans from the whole campaign, about your superior, your ships, weapons and so on, all this stuff you need to know. Cause i wanna know which char im playing, nothing with amnesia here...:rolleyes:
Ah and why your fighters already got maxims? Well uhm your char is a really good pilot in an important squadron and we are many years after the SGW. Everything seems logical to me...

Seems like im the only who likes this campaign here:sigh: ...

derelict gets my vote. it has an excellent storyline.

Unholy alliance... let me think about that... UA was weird. Although I couldn't play most of it because then my retail fs2 kept crashing. :( is there a full campaign download for that somewhere?

Sorry for that last part, KTW

I'm suprised Sync and Warzone haven't got a single vote.  I really like Sync and I thought loads of people like Warzone too.

I think people universally regard them as top ten or even top five campaigns but no one actually likes them enough to put them as number one :)

I don't think UA was ever finished, just a demo & what had been done when it was canned ( http://alliance.sourceforge.net/files/ I think has it)

I was really expecting the FS2 CAmpaign to totally OWN the FS1 one, I thought it had a much better story line, instead of Shivans Kill All then we stop them at the last minute it was
Shivans reappear, Explore nebula, we're winnig **** Ravana.  Ravana destroyed This Shivan fleet is tiny ha ha ha **** Sathanas, kill it! Colossus Pwns Sathanas They've got no chance now we've killed they're juggernaut! Oh **** 80 Saths! OMGTHE$h1\/4|\|5JU5T|\|00|<3D(4P311aWTFBBQ! All the time there is the riddle of Bosch and ETAK.  The story is Richer and more diverse in FS2. (IMO)
