What kind of features are you excpecting/do you guys like/want from the "average" campaign?

Sex. Violence. Rock 'n Roll.

Voilence we got, rock'n'roll we can do, but do you honestly want to see two Hercs doin' it?

You can show cutscene movies right?

Things I expect from campaigns:

1. Playability, balanced or rather easy difficulty Many campaigns I have played just lacked any playability because of the difficulty.
2. A plot that makes sense. It should also be close to reality and should never exaggerate. No two fleets of dozens of juggernauts facing off each other. No resurrected war heroes.
3. Thorough FREDding: no overlapping messages, immediately accomplished mission goals/directives. Using the Escort List, Initial Orders, disabling Player Orders for critical mission craft and any kind of transports, freighters, and cruisers.

An unhappy ending. Quite seriously.

I agree entirely. This is the reason I liked Sync, and to some extent, Transcend.

Ransom Arceihn takes care of similar stuff...

Anyway most players would like a good ending,not 100% good(major losses)but not completely unhappy.

*Alpha 1 limps off in his damaged Herc II into the distant glow of the Capellan Supernova, The piano theme music from the original Hulk series plays in the background. The camera pans back to the debris of his wingmates, the shot widens and you see a derelict Sathanas and derelict Deimos class cruisers, a sobek or two and an Arcadia station, the evidence of a huge battle taking place. A Mara drifts in to view, apparently dead in space, its engines flicker, then burst back into life. The piano music fades out, dramatic music fades in as the Mara turns to follow Alpha 1, as it pulls away we see that it is followed by its three wingmates. Fade out....................*

meh, both happy and unhappy endings are overrated. They just need to balance out. Like in the main campaign, you lose the Colossus, but you destroy the....Sathanas. That balances out. The best ending I have ever read is in the Hand of Thrawn duology. Anyone read it? No, you should....

Lots of extra st00f

K fine, a good plotline, a couple extra ships for variety, (can be from other mods), a few big, big, big fights (capship battles, couple 100 fighters (in waves)), like the one in derelict where you bring in the lucy to the station.

Make it like derelict, but with a different plot. And warn us if we need any mods, cause it's really hard to defend an unshielded, suicidal ulysses from seraphim launching harpoons.

A good campaign designer should include whatever mods are needed with the release. That's just common sense. (ie, NOT Tech Superiority. The two major modded ships were missing completely, and I had to hunt them down myself.

)
