Allright so, what did you think of it?

The backgrounds were schweet, and the station was very groovy The skill level on medium was just about enough for an average player. The only thing wrong with it was the first Command Briefing screen not showing the whole text, and no debriefing for the last mission when you scram. Otherwise very nice

So, what did you think of it?

The backgrounds are SWEET. Also that Repair dock in the 4th mission was also nice. The action is satisfying, and overall I think it just makes me thirst for the full version even more now. Great work BWO team. Oh, Alpha 1 finnaly talks!!! w00t

Very classy!

You did what very few have done and created original situations using FS2's original content. The missions were exquisitely executed, and were made difficult in more ways than just sending in overwhelming numbers of fighter wings. And the (to the most part superb) voice acting really does add that touch of class that I felt when playing FS2's original campaign for the first time.

Maintain this level of quality in the rest of your missions and BWO will be almost a dead cert for the best 3rd-party FS2 campaign.

Sid.

Thanks for the complements. Kellan really has a superb design style and ethic. Hopefully we'll be able to translate that into the rest of the missions we have too.

Thumbs up Alpha 1

Everything is very good indeed... What I liked the most is that finally we can have Alpha 1 as a real character. At last we can put a name on Alpha 1. Almost adds an element of rpg without upgrading your stats, which is very nice.

The voice actors and the scripts are original and finally we don't hear the "It's on a need to know basis and you don't need to know" (which is becoming a classic sentence and I've heard it about 3 times on the B5 season 1 DVDs).

Very good job... Keep up the good work guys... The wait was worth it.

There's one line in there that I wasn't happy with (but since I'm the one who recorded it, it's my fault. ) because I think the tone is all wrong for the situation. I must have recorded that one without looking at the script.

Oh well. I'm a perfectionist, so it'll bug me for a while.

The only one you did I thought that sounded funky was the "I've had my share of action today I think."

The I think part kinda put it off.

Some of the girls stuff is really hard to decipher wihout the text in front of you though.

Big thanks for that work there. The voices make it so much better! Hopefully we can count on you and others for the main campaign.

Question

well... it was good. I was just getting into the feel of it in the 4th mission and for some reason as soon as one of the gas miners that are on a collision course with the Leunenburg explode the game quits.

Its a fresh install of FS2 and ive played other Campaigns like The Babylon Project fine. A similar thing also happens with both demos for Inferno.

Im baffled
