Thoughts on New Mission Idea?
G'day guys,
Just wanted to get some feedback about what you might like to see in a new mission I'm planning. I wanted to set it in the Red Sea, with Sudan as the main focus. Here are some options I'm weighing up: 1. Set in 1980s Cold War or Present Day Civil War? (688 or Virginia?) Should I even try a Russian boat?? 2. Submarine mission or Perry mission? (There are different mission opportunities with each) 3. More 'sneaky reconnaissance' tasks or more 'shooting and blasting' tasks or a bit of both? If both, what ratio? 25:75? 4. Most of my missions go for roughly 4-5 days - too long? Just right? Shorter? (the longer the mission, the more triggers that can bug out and need to be tested) I really could do all of the options above, and I'm not too fussy. I can't keep everyone happy, but it'd be interesting to see what people prefer. No word on release date, probably a couple of months at the least... Cheers guys, Stew

Stew;
Just IMO, but in my experience of uploading stuff for Flight Sim, people usually don't care about having an input. Come up with a good scenario, debug it, and post it. Then wait for all the complaints to show up. Sudan sounds interesting, but what about the Gulf of Sidra in the 1980's? |

Thanks Bob for that - wise words as always - on both your points!
I agree too that a Gulf of Sidra mission would be cool. I've got a couple of books on it and the Libya map is all ready to go! I'll do some research and thinking! Thanks Bob, you're a legend! Stew

As I mentioned in Ukraine #2, long transits aren't that fun. If it's broken into parts with a campaign, you could move the sub/ship to the next location, just assumed we did the transit.
In Ukraine 2 I was hoping to get my fire control back, so personally I'd like some fire missions. |
