Episode one testing done!
on: March 29, 2005, 11:08:24 pm
The first half of the Blackwater Operations campaign, 22 missions total, has been tested.

The first episode includes the continuation of the BWO demo, with the newly formed Blackwater squadron battling the Scion of Vasuda. There are mission loops dealing with either the continuation of the war against the SoV or the reprecussions of contacting Sol.

When released, this first part of the campaign will take you to Beta Aquilae, Delta Serpentis, Vega. It will also bring you back to Sol, and the Tau Sigma system from Derelict. Finally, a surprising twist of events may bring you to the Delphi system... and beyond.

Great
If the quality will remain the same as in the demo (which is pretty obvious), we can expect a top-notch campaign soon :)

The quality - it surpasses the demo by quite a lot.

The demo was meant for Retail FS2 as much as I can remember.

This is a step above obviously. How much of a step, well you'll see for yourselves on release.

Yeah...I always figured it was sort of unstable.  And I made the map before Derelict was finished.

It could be added...

Well, you even said it was still there when I asked.

So yeah, it should probably be added methinks. :p

I'm such a continuity hog...

I believe there are three episodes, or such, and that they plan to release them all at the same time.

Be patient. :)

When released,



So when will it be released?

I honestly do not see any reason why you would wait to release it until all three episodes are finished.
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

Continuity.  Quality control.  Releasing a finished product.  I could understand any one of those.  FS2 was put together in three parts as well, but it's not like it shipped as three campaigns.
who needs a signature? ;)
