Very cool mission, it has everythig a good one needs. I play it singleplayer, and it is a lot of fun.

Feedback to date on mission 3 was positive, but let me know what you think!
Liberty_Valance 1 Dec, 2016 @ 12:04pm 
well, make it easier

@Liberty_Valance : Thanks for giving my missions another try ;). Although I think they are generally still on the difficult side. Beware of mission 3, playing it in SP can be a real challenge.

very good though I played only the first part. Thanks and I shall play your other scenarios.

Thanks. I will play it again with my friends and leave another feedback. But it will take 1 or 2 weeks, because I'm busy.. :-)

Added Mission failure when target successfully escapes.
Increased revive timer.

Thanks for the recommendation!

Some feedback :

You are right, the target will be evacuated via helicopter after a while. I did have a mission failed before, but it was being triggered incorrectly so I removed it until I can find a way to get it working properly. I'll update when I have a solution.

Noted for the revive time, I think you are right that it is a little low. I will increase it. (and yes, any issues with Revive mechanics is vanilla Arma.)

Thanks again

Tried this mission with two friends, but don't find the target at airport. I suppose after we destroy the boat it took too much time and target left with helicopter, because we hear helicopter sound in the meantime. Am I right?
It would be nice if there's a "Mission Failed" if I'm right, because we kiled all people at airport and nothing happened and then we canceled the mission.

In general:
- Mission is really good, want to complete it. Recommend to play it for all reading this commmentary.
- As there's no respawn (I'm a friend of it) the time for a revive should be slightly higher. My opinion.
- if you're killed and waiting for team to revive you the game told you "Hold space to force respawn", but there's no respawn. I suppose that's Apex and not your fault, but anyway it's confusing.

Sorry for any mistakes, english is not my native language.

A highly recommended mission! Thank you pal, for your effort!!!
I'm proceeding to the second mission now!...

Fixed and uploaded.
Thanks for the feedback Skurtus. I'm a little short of coop buddies (they didn't get Apex), so little short handed testing wise. Much appreciated.

Another Problem: While I have fullfled all the demanding tasks and I'm in the Extract Phase of the mission (Extract via boat to safe house), the mission abruptly terminated as FAILED (!!!), while we prepared to embark on the exfil boat!!!... Up to that point, I enjoyed a well designed, tough and demanding mission!!!
Weaponsfree  [author] 2 Aug, 2016 @ 2:12pm 
Cool :) Let me know if you find any issues. I test on my own these days, so can't spot all issues.
Skurtus 2 Aug, 2016 @ 1:54pm 
Yes!
Everything is A-O.K. now!
I'm proceeding on the mission now! See you on the battlefield!...
Skurtus 2 Aug, 2016 @ 12:55pm 
Thank you pal!
I'm going to try it now! The mission, ...no, the campaign, looked very promising!...
Weaponsfree  [author] 2 Aug, 2016 @ 8:32am 
Fixed and uploaded. Sorry about that, wasn't getting the issue in the Editor, but I did see it when trying the subscribed version.
Skurtus 2 Aug, 2016 @ 8:11am 
I select them and with 1-1 call them back to formation. No reaction!
Weaponsfree  [author] 2 Aug, 2016 @ 8:02am 
Hmmm, They have "combat" animations. Which should be canceled if you ask them to return for formation. You tried selecting them and 1-1 Return to Formation?
Skurtus 2 Aug, 2016 @ 7:12am 
From the very beginning, I can't cortrol the team members! They stay there froze! I do not have any mods installed!
Weaponsfree  [author] 21 Jul, 2016 @ 10:22am 
Updated with a tweak to help prevent the end trigger going off prematurely (note the mission starts with a UAV intro)
Weaponsfree  [author] 21 Jul, 2016 @ 9:11am 
@Brandon : That is strange, it did not come up in my tests. But I know what is causing it. I'll fix it shortly.

Tried it, mission gets completed as soon as the mission starts.
