JLean Posted October 20, 2023 Posted October 20, 2023 Great to have now more frequent Firday updates! 4
Blitzen Posted October 20, 2023 Posted October 20, 2023 My Friday morning is complete...after one more cup of coffee! 1
LF_Mark_Krieger Posted October 20, 2023 Posted October 20, 2023 Jaegermeister hystorical campaign with the P-51 B/C? Really interesting. And of course the more realist numbers of LW planes in career mode in Normandy and Rheinland. 2
MarcoPegase44 Posted October 20, 2023 Posted October 20, 2023 Great new campaign, in the meantime I started working on the skins. 12 1
FAW-Tromplamort Posted October 20, 2023 Posted October 20, 2023 Good but a online cooperative campaign would be a blast.... 2 1

Spoiler Those look great, but fortunately new Generic OD skins will be added to the game at the same time for use with the Tactical ID letters. 8

Let’s hope the P-40 and Jug get some love down the road. 1 hour ago, Lusekofte said: That campaign talks to me “Luse…this is the Mustang campaign…stop drinking so much” 1 2 2
Mtnbiker1998 Posted October 21, 2023 Posted October 21, 2023 VERY happy to see a P-51B campaign coming out!! Ended up becoming one of my favorite planes in the game, can't wait to play the campaign!!

You cant do it with the officials becausr you wont have access to the files. But if there is a comunity made scripted campaign you like it works fine. Probably you shoud ask the author for premission to do so ?
senseispcc Posted October 21, 2023 Posted October 21, 2023 (edited) Great news is also in small news. We are so in the waiting for “big” new add-ons that small things are “great” news! Do we always need a new big paying add-on, a new campaign that shall not be the one we wait for (the pacific one when we wait for the France 1940 one? Per example!) . Do little steps not go as far and cumulatively not go as far, and are less costly? Let our wallets rest for a wile. Edited October 21, 2023 by senseispcc add precision

Why are there suddenly so many people asking for co-op campaigns? The thing with co-op is that someone has to host it, and a number of people have to play it. 1CGS can only really host it at their own servers, and open to all people regardless of affiliation to a particular squadron or whether or not they have a microphone or even any desire to actually play co-op. Within minutes, it would become a free-for-all slaughterfest. If my short stint at flying multiplayer has taught me anything, it's that any form of co-op missions are best left to dedicated squadrons, and hence that official co-op campaigns aren't really doable. That said, it's very easy to modify a campaign into a co-op one. If the upcoming campaign is free (it doesn't say so explicitly but Jaeger's campaigns usually are - @LukeFF can you confirm?), the campaign files will be unencrypted and you can just edit them to make all aircraft playable. @Jaegermeister looking forward to it! I always enjoy your campaigns, and I just built myself a new PC which should really make them come alive 1

I do think that is what people are asking for. ? Many of my campaigns i have made coop versions of, i can upload if anyone is interessted.
Lusekofte Posted October 21, 2023 Posted October 21, 2023 Coop is this game strongest feature. It give you sort of cooperative wingmen if you’re not like the guy’s I fly with. Initial really good ai opponents that knows how to bounce you.
FAW-Tromplamort Posted October 21, 2023 Posted October 21, 2023 My squad has the luck to have someone very talented in online coop mission making. But I dont think it's the case for every squad and I think it would be a good thing for a certain number of people. Coop campaign against IA or against humain squad would be less brutal for online beginners..... 1
Bad_Luna Posted October 21, 2023 Posted October 21, 2023 i dont want much really. And when i say co-op im not trying to say drag the whole team into the brief or even track their stats. Basically the campaign is for player #1 player #2-4 are just there to help

ShamrockOneFive Posted October 21, 2023 Posted October 21, 2023 Congrats on the launch of a new campaign Jaegermeister. How many missions are packaged into it?
S10JlAbraxis Posted October 21, 2023 Posted October 21, 2023 (edited) P51 Campaign? Will pick up the La-5F as well because - new plane - must be addicted to airplanes... Edited October 21, 2023 by S10JlAbraxis 2

Thanks, it took a couple of months to make. It's 15 missions. There is 1 cross channel strike mission at the beginning just to make you appreciate moving to Normandy! They get much shorter from there. 4

I tried to convert some SP missions of certain campaigns to coop misions, but they didn't work. Probably it is easy, but not so easy as just changing the type of mission from SP or campaign to cooperative. At the moment I haven't been able to understand how to do it. I'm still quite noob with the editor.

But those I attended used Patric Wilson campaign generator I use PWCG and it is a wonderful tool, but uses random generation that can't compare to some brilliant single player campaigns that I would like to use to play in cooperative mode with the friends of my squadron, too.

Vishnu Posted October 21, 2023 Posted October 21, 2023 Call me a fanboi, but I buy everything this company makes. Whether I play with the item/module/campaign or not. Anything to support new material and the devs. Keep it up! 1 1 1
Lusekofte Posted October 22, 2023 Posted October 22, 2023 42 minutes ago, Vishnu said: Call me a fanboi Ok, do I win something? I will buy this new thing myself. And I probably buy scripted campaigns coming. Those are tuned in to best possible playability. But I won’t buy anything for current state. Not for stating anything, I simply do not use it.
