All of the above )

good cutscenes and music

[theavonlady 2]

All of the above except new vehicles and addons. That is, if they're relevant sure, put them in but if not, then who cares.

It's the atmosphere, the story and playing it out and becoming part of it.

If multilevel scenario means dynamic mission paths, even more so. Your successes and failures will determine what lies ahead. This was used only once unfortunately in the 1985 campaign.

What you up to, Goodspeed?

Did you see that I included a few of your old missions in my recent Original OFP Nostalgia Mission Pack?

As i can see sound and music are NOTHING in campaign But realistic missions are rule...

Well, are you really sure that you want realistic missions? Thant means only ONE thing: it'll be HARDCORE missions Are you ready to spend 1 hours on 1 mission? I'm not sure...

That's not true. You're misreading poll results. The poll isn't about whether music is important or not. It's about what's most important.

Obviously, from everything listed, music is at the bottom of the totem pole. However, that doesn't mean that it shouldn't be included. Download some of the mission here that contain music and see how "inspirational" they can be.

It's the icing on the cake!

Story is definitely the most important part of campanign !

But remember, you have to justify the actions taken ie. player has to want bad to do things put in front of him !!

It doesn't mean you have to be on the "good side". You can play the "bad guy" too, that's just as fun..

As can be seen in "PMC Fury" missions don't have to be complex to work with good story (though some of PMC missions were a little bit boring..)

IMO missions shouldn't be too realistic. What I mean is people want action and in real life war is at most part waiting for something to happen.

For conclusion, I'd say give player a possibility to make a difference.. if you see what I mean..

Thats true We cant to make very realistic missions. There is no respawn in real life and game limits our actions... But we can make very approached to real life missions. How? Simply. We have to count all possible evets and accordingly count logic. And I'm sure: we must give a FREEDOM to player. I think thats obligatory condition.

Good gameplay is obviously the most important thing.

Could you give me example of GOOD gameplay in campaign?

[Damage Inc 0]

For example not having to face 20 troops with one squad.

[shadow 6]

IMHO a nice story + reallistic missions = Great Gameplay.

Cutscenes are nice, but not essential as they are skipped the second time I see them. Therefore I prefer working on the mission (gameplay) instead of the cutscenes.

-just my opinion tho.

May be

But all depends on gamers skill... I know one guy, who can coplete any mission...

We did for him SPECIALLY IMPRACTICABLE missions, and he passed them.

So it not a condition for good gameplay, i think

In my opinion this point of view is closer to the truth...

P.S. May be you think: WHAT THE HELL IS HE WANTS FROM US

I explain: I make marketing research I should know what the gamer wants.

I'm not sure about making missions, but I'm sure that you know something about it

A campaign without a good story line is just a collection of single missions.

I think the story and the missions are equally important, and should go together.
