bored_onion 0 Posted August 31, 2005 <span style='color:red'>Shadows of the Motherland</span> is an all-new single player campaign for Operation Flashpoint. It has 20+ missions with many fully voice acted cutscenes (featuring almost 500 recorded sounds), custom music and an engaging storyline: "The year is 1988 and you are Captain Leon Yesenin assigned as part of a NATO peacekeeping force on the island of Nogova following internal instability. It has been three years since you defected into the US Army from your Soviet Spetz Natz division and three years since you have seen your old friend, and former comrade in arms, Alexei Tupilov, who you know moved to Nogova after the events that forced your transition. Little do you know that your experiences on this island will reveal new truths about your friendship with Alexei and about the events that forced your separation and defection. Once again you will be cast underneath the shadows of the motherland." --- Quote from the official website The first full beta version of the campaign is now available. More details about the project can be found at the official website and an exciting new <span style='color:red'>promotional video</span> can be found by following this link.

bored_onion 0 Posted September 3, 2005 true, i hadnt made this clear in this thread but there is a link to the relevant download in the OFPEC beta testing thread - where comments are very much welcome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
neonblack 0 Posted September 3, 2005 I just got an e-mail about it this morning and I've spent most of the day playing through it. I have to say its great overall but there are a few problems. First off the beginning cut-scene seems just a little long, and second of all I'm getting tremendous amounts of lag (but thats probably more of an issue of my playing this with the Y2K3 mod). Other than that its great... One of the best campaigns I've played on OFP Although I'm still wondering why I got that e-mail? Did I sign up for something I don't remember signing up for?

bored_onion 0 Posted September 3, 2005 we had a mailing list for a newsletter on the site and we sent an email to all those on the list. i reckon thats where you signed up. very pleased you are enjoying it. we are aware of some little bugs but we would greatly appreciate a few details of things which are going wrong. if you could, then please give us a little more information so subsquent versions can be better thanks a lot!

neonblack 0 Posted September 4, 2005 Oh OK... Well maybe I did. But I'll play a few missions more and I'll get back to you about the bugs. I havn't had much time to play today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Daniel 0 Posted September 4, 2005 Quote[/b] ]addon-free campaign  no need for addons when there are replacement mods out there  This is the future of OFP. Pity certain other missions still require so many addons. I disagree entirely. But meh, we all have our opinions. Looks good anyway, I've been keeping up with your site. Gonna try it out soon as I get chance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
malick 0 Posted September 5, 2005 Download works fine for me ! BTW, quite a nice video. Too bad we see some visual glitches sometimes due to your graphical settings... Gonna try the campaign as soon as it finishes DL'ing! Missions and campaigns are what OFP needs most. Thanks... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

redface 1 Posted October 8, 2005 note that the campaign requires the editorupgrade102.pbo addon so far, this campaign captures the true spirit of OFP Â massive groups of units on patrol, helicopter creating an eerie atmosphere, convoys moving around = Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
redface 1 Posted November 16, 2005 I would like to express my gratitude to the makers of this campaign I have been playing it for two months now and still can't get enough of it I am playing this with DMA Army Pack Replacement Mod and ECP - near the end, it's a total inferno I have never experienced before this campaign is truely OFP at its best Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
