Campaign?
Posted: Fri May 27, 2011 5:39 pm
What's the campaign like? Is it purely linear? Branching? Dynamic? Is there a operational game that ties the tactical game together, ala XCom?
I'm only a few missions into the campaign (I didn't want to spoil the full release of FS by working my way through the campaign while it still was in beta [:)]), but from what I have seen it is a series of 50-odd linked missions tied together by a interesting, if dense, cyberpunk story. The maps that you fight on are semi-dynamic - only parts are randomized - so each mission doesn't play out exactly the same each time. Some are easy, others are very challenging.
The story isn't dynamic, though. Just linear - mission 1-2-3-4, etc. There isn't any base building or anything like what XCOM had, either. It's just a story told via missions.
