ACT - III Public Alpha build out now!

Oh I should also add, if one was to open their doors and slowly drive into the CEO (Soldier Unit) the unit may teleport around. (Baha really needs to fix this bug) So try to drive into him with your doors closed, then open them when he is inside the AV, or the previous Land with doors open on top of the CEO.

Glad you liked what you could play. There is an extra slide on that briefing that probably covers what you experienced. If you decide to play it again, try looking for red flares on the a roof of a building that is surrounded by tanks after "Bloodhound"'s successful insertion. Next land your AV-42C into the soldier unit on the pad with your doors opened and stopped. (There is nothing I can do about the last step as that is all in Baha's hands.) Hope this helped. Will be pushing a hotfix for Act 2 and a small update for this one adding the experimental briefing music, and some more detailed areas.

Mission 2 was amazing, really did an amazing job with the musics and tension

Hi ! We tried mission 3 (week3-1) but cannot go past the CEO.
We tried the waypoint and every landing pads after destroying every AA sites but the mission never progressed.
Is it a bug or did we do something wrong ?

Funny update on things. I am not dead, but college has been kicking my ass. SO! I have news that a lot might find interesting... I'm turning the scripts and the almost century of lore into a book for a class (and maybe even publishing it too.) I will also be hopefully adding the experimental music from the recent act 2 update to see how it turns out. I have many things in the pipeline as I am writing this from getting voice actors, an artist, a music producer, and the previously stated book. Including many new ideas for updates. Right now I am focusing on college so Act 3 will probably be delayed for a while as I the time I am allotting towards 2031 is going towards making sure the current campaigns are up to date and polished. Hope this little update gives a little insight on my current situation.

Really cool, wish the EF-24 could be used

Most are just radars, tied to a central launcher, near the center of the defenses. Its mostly meant to be an annoyance rather than a major problem as it is the first mission.

is there any reason why the enemy SAMs at Night Raid never engage? I can just fly around and gun all them down and they wont shoot a single missile at me.

alr, i was hoping it would include it, prolly my favorite multiplayer aircraft. Kinda forgot EW was a thing and i rarely use it as such but i understand the balancing reasons for those who know how to use it well

No, "Cryofracture" and the following act "Windthrow" are to not have the EF-24G for balancing and lore reasons.

1 : Having a dedicated EW aircraft of it's scale would throw a lot of balancing off. Even with the current selection of aircraft I had to do a large amount of balancing when the EW update came out. This is also the kind of reason why I removed the AH-94 after it was implemented into VTOL. However in that case, it was borderline unusable in these missions.

2 : As for the lore reason, The EF-24G fits the late description for a variant of the F-14 "Super Tomcat" which used Block III F/A-18-esc parts in the cockpit. In the lore, the "mischief" gets created near the end of the 3rd act to help with the US's weakened aircraft numbers while also filling the gap for a needed rapid response multi-role interceptor.

TLDR : No, the EF-24g (and probably other new unreleased aircraft) will not make it into Operation : Cryofracture.

hey, any chance it can be updated to include the EF-24? i was really hoping it was going to be apart of the mission

great misson and a great misson host

I personally did the Liveries, https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3029522605 is where you can find them. In the next update for Cyrofracture I am going to update the F-45 Livery and the T-55 Livery to have more details, similar to the F/A-26 2.0 livery.

Do you know if there's any place we can download the awesome mission liveries?! The AV-42 one is amazing, hats off to whoever did the paintjobs <3

As for Hacky’s problem, Try redownloading the workshop and checking the bottom of the multiplayer hosting tab. Thats what works for me when I have that problem.

That swimming bastard is back, I cannot get rid of him. looks like im gonna need to fix this shit again. Thanks for informing me I know that the mission editor got really messed up after a few updates. Was there any problems with the music by any chance?

Currently the first mission has several invincible bunkers and other targets, there is also a manpad that is underwater and is not killable.

Currently cant get this campaign to show up, i did also try previous game versions

A great campaign, I'll fly the second part soon!

10/10 great work on campaign

"Signal limited, Ordinance low, Lets just hope Griffinport hasn't fallen yet."

To respond to Nova's advisory, Yes, while it is possible to play solo, the missions are recommended to be played with 3-9 people.

probably one of the best vtol campaigns i have ever played. great story, with pretty much everything making sense! on why certain things were occurring. balance is pretty good with a full lobby, but i would not advise playing solo. not much else to say that i had a load of fun playing this and would recommend too anyone who is moderately ok at vtol! really looking forward to act 2 of this story.

Amazing campaign I loved every bit of this.

(A new Feedback Discussion has been made in the discussion tab, please redirect all feedback to there as to not clog up the comments.)

Yea, balancing is in the works, some bug are still present but most are fixed, and I still need to replace the "sickly" placeholder audio from the later missions. besides that, I am glad you liked it.

bro a play with the dev in dis game he told there
is some bugs but it just so good and also my battery died mid battle :/

To everyone Subscribed to this thread, OPCF has officially entered it's Beta phase. With that, comes the release of the final Week, Week 5 : Full Frontal Assault... Bring your friends for the final push as this is the hardest mission yet. Remember, keep bug searching and sending in feed back.

Thanks buddy, maybe you can spawn in the aibase units right before they should take of or for them undetected until they have to do something.

Glad you liked it Shikuja,
I will take that feedback into account. The difficult is something now that I will take into account as almost everyone has said the same thing for all missions, expect the difficulty to ramp up in the next update. (and probably lock down the airbase harder)
Also, nice video.

btw I used footage of the Week 2 Mission for a short vtol vr clip

Just played Week 3 with my boys and we really liked it, like all the missions in your campaign. We were 4 people not bored and not too stressed. Something that could be interesting for you is that we attacked the enemy airport, drone carrier and didn't really would have needed the allied squadron. Through those the battle in the air took us only a minute. Keep up your work I’m hyped for more.
