Favourite Released Campaign

What's the best (fan) campaign you've played? Can be for mods, story quality, or just plain fun, but the campaign has to have been released (demos count). No voting BWO or TI (:P) and getting around it.

My primary vote goes to the AoB demo. I played it awhile ago now, but I played it after a long period of not playing FS2, and it rekindled my love for the game. It didn't have any overly great storyline or amazing mods or anything. It was just a short, fun rompo that came at the right time for me :).

Secondary vote goes to Homesick, definitely shows off what creative storytelling can do to the standard FS2 shipset, but it was a bit repetetive in places to really suit my tastes.

So, anyone else? :dancing:

Deus Ex Machina. :smash:

BW, do you have the AoB demo handy? I can't find it anywhere.

How humble :p


Definately Homesick, even though I played it when my FS2 copy was, for the most part, broken. Crashed on every mission(so techincally I played it through 2 times). I'm not complaining :)

Homesick or Derelict, probably. I really need to finish Derelict, and as much as I complain about Homesick's rather tragic ending, it's a great campagin. I can't help but wonder at the layer upon layer of intricate FREDing Blaise did.

No - I did see you post in the AoB forum, but I ran a search over mycomputer for the relevant filename (beyonddemo.zip or whatever it was) I came up dry. Which sucks, as I normally keep FS stuff I download. Virtu might be your best bet if you can contact him, or another of the AoB staffers.

Warzone was okay mission wise. Story wise it just seemed like Star Craft Brood War.

Deus Ex was great :badgrin: *notes how weird the : lol : smilie is* :D

Inferno was definately worth a play though, but while some people swear by it (like derilect, which i hated) other people hated it...
