Ships/Mod Related

Are all the ships from R1 in this version?

No, due to time and the fact that some ships are either broken or are not needed, not everything in the R1 modpack is included with this release. However there are plenty of new ships as well as the upgrades of previous R1 ships and some INFSCP models

Are the SOC/Ancient fleets included?

No, since there will not be a separate SOC campaign the SOC content was removed from the mod. The Ancients however may be added after the initial release period as an additional campaign and download

Did I see some original FS2 ships?

Yes, some of the original FS2 ships are featured in the campaign alongside the new ones

Campaign Related

How long is the new campaign?

The current combined R1+2 campaign is over 30 missions long, more than double the original R1 release

Will it be heavily story driven?

No, it is our intention to have this version of the mod to play more like classic FS2 like the original R1 did
