PI is mostly a no-frills campaign that emphasizes quality mission design, with fun and balanced gameplay and a complex and realistic plot. The missions have all been heavily playtested, on the order of 20 to 50 times each, and bugs should be at an absolute minimum. The campaign utilizes many new features added into the game from the Freespace Source Code Project and requires a fairly recent version of FS2 Open.

This is a good length high-quality campaign, with thick plot, challenging missions, and a good deal of originality. Warning, however: if you don't like replaying missions, stay on the lower difficulty levels.

Campaign Description

Political instability and economic depression in two border systems resulted in their regional governments, led by a charismatic demagogue, declaring full independence from the GTVA in 2368. Now, a year later, a surprise incursion by this regime signals the beginning of a new war. As a new Vasudan pilot recruited into the ranks of the GTVA, you are assigned to the crew of the GVD Sekham in Polaris as the Alliance attempts to eradicate the rapidly propagating Procyon Confederal Autonomy.

Features

  • 17 Missions (21 actual mission files)
  • New Weapons and Ships
  • Additions to and reallocations of sound files, to enhance audio effects
  • Several game balance table edits; underpowered weapons more potent, overpowered weapons (like Trebuchet) decreased in effectiveness.

Player Comments

This is a good length high-quality campaign, with thick plot, challenging missions, and a good deal of originality. Warning, however: if you don't like replaying missions, stay on the lower difficulty levels.

Great campaign, extremely well balanced (but significantly harder than Volition campaigns), well designed and original missions, compelling and involving plotline. Volition quality. One of the few campaigns anyone looking for Volition-quality campaign should do. Really a pity it is not voiced, though. Narwhal
