ataribaby 54 Posted August 30, 2010 Just finished BAF campaign and enjoyed it a lot. Bit short but well done. Good mission design and voice acting. I wish ot last one misson loonger :) Defend base one was tough as hell but manageable. Loved czech references/jokes in it and in Merlin transport SP mission. Thanks BIS.

VariousArtist 19 Posted August 31, 2010 Strange, I found the BAF campaign as uncreative as most other Arma1+2 campaigns. Lacking narrative, lacking dramaturgy and they never show what Arma is really capable of. Wasted showcase principle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zipper5 74 Posted September 1, 2010 I do think that sometimes BIS makes some odd design choices with their campaigns and official missions, such as in mission 2 they forced the player to use a convoy of Jackals. I'm sure they know how bad the AI are when trying to act as a convoy, but they put it in there anyways. It is a bit strange... The SP scenarios are excellent through-and-through, though. However, I certainly didn't find it lacked narrative or drama. In fact, I'd say the monologues the main character makes are a bit too narrative and dramatic. :p I definitely enjoyed it a lot more than Operation Arrowhead or Harvest Red. In terms of the ArmA series so far I'd have to say it's underneath Eagle Wing for best official campaign. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
