DimSim Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 For those who've played the Argo campaign, what are the mission transit times like? I'm considering buying the campaign but am concerned about the transit times and mission durations. I have perhaps 30-60min free time slots to play a mission. I'm up to about mission 7 in the UN Campaign at present. Finding the missions take >1hr with time acceleration. Most of that time is spent flying to and from objective, worse, the last few missions require formation flying which is erratic with AI pilots changing speeds and altitudes. If I make one mistake, I must repeat the whole mission. I'm more of a causal player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew u.k. Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 If I remember rightly it's much the same. I feel your pain. I've just started the world's apart campaign. Mission 1 is similar, long transit times off and on the ship but second half of the mission was much better. I'm not sure why designers add the long slogs. But I suppose we all play differently.

ebabil Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 not being able to save progress is pain in the ass. I feel you very well.

DimSim Posted May 14, 2020 Author Share Posted May 14, 2020 Thanks for your responses. I might skip Argo and Worlds Apart for now. I hear Worlds Apart is more hard core as well, which might interest purists more than my casual play. That campaign looks interesting @astonmartindbs, thanks for sharing. Oh for save game / save points / rewind & resume. :| Life is too short to repeat repeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unlikely_spider Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 The free Grenzland and Larkin Aviation Huey campaigns are also very well done, better for beginners (Grenzland first), and have lighter transit times. I did those before Argo, and it was worth it in that order. Modules: Wright Flyer, Spruce Goose, Voyager 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
