    Hi peeps i started playing crossfire SP campaing and id like to give u some feedback 8)


    You'we done a great job with this mod its awesome
    I really enjoyed the new money lvls they are just perfect. except the kusari 10 million with everybody hostile..i actually had to revert to an older save and farm that 10 million before i continued ...got so annoying.
    The new ships look cool(well, some of them are straight from some 60's scifi parody but hey, if you like 'em ..im not complaining)
    NPC's use shield bots- insanely cool!!! yess finally a little challenge.
    and well the wide screen support for my 1080p monitor and all ..just fantastic! the list goes on and on...
    BUT then...
    I had to stop the sp campaign somewhere in kusari space because:


    First of all, the difficulty is too EASY! no challenge, gets very boring
    After getting myself "Shade" light fighter(no torpedo) I owned everything even in kusari space(lvl 6 weapons). I can only imagine how easy it is if i get a ship with a torpedo like the "Griffin"
    So, was kinda dissapointed. I was hoping that the difficulty would increase and id have to upgrade my ship, shields and weapons to better ones, but instead i find out that...
    You tagged all the great new hardware with a "lvl 30 tag"!!?? After like 10 hours of looking for a new ship I was crushed...seriously allmost cried, but my wife was home so i controlled myself like a man and bought the damn "junis defender"..with crappy shields :|


    You could have filled the vanilla systems with all kinds of new ships and stuff and you could have made the campaign zones gradually harder aas the plot progresses; so that id have to explore dangerous new zones to get that "technological edge" over my enemies. The ship/weapon upgrading is imo the driving force in this game.
    For example when i got the Firespray-31(bobba fets ship) in fl-rebalance it was just insane! When i found it i was like floating around in my brettonia heavy tin can waiting to be humiliated at the jumpnode by corsairs and their cruise distrupters . Then i turned all my 8 turbolasers on and annihilated like 400 corsairs as payback with my new super ship! :D
    Thats the kind of feeling im searching from a mod. I allready know the SP campaing..played it 8 times now..so i really wish for something extra. Harder enemies, new insanely cool ships to buy in remote space stations ect.
    Anyways...
    I'we been going trough your forums and found out that you are about to release 1.9 with lots of single player content!! :thumbsup:
    I seriously hope its gonna be awesome and doens't have those little flaws im whining about in this post. Can't wait to try it out.


    I'we also wondered if i should start playing multiplayer. Getting owned near manhattan by 1PwnU95 and Laz0rs227 while hauling 250k worth of diamonds with a freighter...sounds cool :D

    Most of the new content can be found after you finish the campaign (or play Open SP)... and you will do find many challenges when
    discoveries new areas (i.e: inner cores systems should not be that easy :rolleyes: ).


    I would encourage you to finish the campaign, as many quests will be available afterwards that will give you hints to travel to new
    areas, with new equipment... and harder NPCs ;)

    Yeh i think i'll definetly play the campaign trough..after the 1.9 is out :D i think its only a matter of days now..i hope
    Just noticed my feedback post is in swat portal section..whoops!

    Well, you are wrong on certain parts. There are cheaper ships for lower lvls which you can buy while doing the storyline, without giving you a ton of power, they are few but cool.


    Also I don't think you even seen half of the CF universe, have you exit Sirius yet ? Neither our ships, the ships you've seen do were added to the mod in the 60's (lol jking of course, but they are soo old in the mod, from 1.4-6-7 versions) most 1.8 addons(ships) are outside Sirius expanding the new universes to face the alien forces which are very challenging and hard, also some pirate factions.


    Difference from lvl 3 to 6 and such weapons (like the Kusary you told about) isn't big, because it's mostly the same newb weps as vanilla, didn't got much harder, but why not trying against CF's fully equipped lvl 10 NPCs ? >:-D There are active players who lated months just to arrive to the alien-friendly sector.

    well the furthest i travelled when i reached kusari space was the x-3??? something can't remember :D anyways it had jumpholes to other systems. I then started to explore the new systems in hope to find a new ship.. and that was when i got frustrated with the "must be lvl"-tags
    My point was merely to point out that the singleplayer campaign hasn't been changed enough for my taste. I would have been very happy if i could have experienced a kinda changed, modded single player with npc's packing new ships and equipment during the plot. And that i would have had more new ships to choose from during actual the campaign.
    I think the mod offers TONS of stuff for opensp and the multiplayer, but for the campaign so far i was a bit dissapointed.
    Anyways i will be playing the campaign trough in these few days so maybe i get positively surprised.

    Only X? See you in a few weeks m8 LOL. You have a looooooong way to go. Why not join us in MP and get the real experience?

    Just finished the campaign mode. The only new ship i found was the griffin... or well i could have been able to buy the PINK EAGLE, but it was too damn ugly
    Then i just equipped the few super energy guns from old navy fighter wrecks and a lvl 10 shield from one of the space stations..then i basically PWNED! all the corsairs and red hessians i could find flying their wolverines ect. was pretty cool. farmed 15 million worth pilots in 40 minutes :D solved the kusari 10 million leveling problem.


    Gonna try your multiplayer now while waiting the 1.9 for more sp-content.
    I'll try to use Brelaser as my pilot name if it isn't taken allrdy see u at the game :D
