I do not think that there will be a campaign mode for our first game. It's very high on my list, but I want to do it right and we just have too much to do to give it the time it deserves. Starting NSD required a complete rewrite of the engine, rethinking and redesigning many aspects of the game. I surprised it works at all. Had MMG released another game, it would have contained a campaign mode. For the NSD release we felt that MP was the most important thing to get in the game, so that's were we headed. It will have campaign mode, if not in an expansion pack, then in the next major release.

Thanks for asking.

Pitty that their won't be a campaign seeing as I'm more a SP player and would have loved to have seen a campaign map, think it would have brought much more depth to the game :(

Do understand though that it's not possible to do everything at once, so I'll wait patiently untill you guys can create one for either the add-on or next full game :)

Dude, it's just a matter of days until I explode! I'm busier than I have ever been in my life. I don't have any free time and it's been going like this for a while. Much better than being bored, but I promise I'm getting in everything I can. I know you're joking, but man am I busy!

You could always have the wife and kids do the game coding.

Why does the "Latest Forum Posts" on the home page indicate my last message was posted yesterday when I just posted it a few hours ago?
