They have to be "likeable" and "thoroughly" tested.

I haven't played this mission pack in a while, so my info may be out of date, but some of the missions wherein you are just battling the AI seemed kind of long.  You have to hunt down the bad guys which can take some time or of course you can merely follow your AI ally as he always seems to know where to go.  I am not sure they are totally appropriate for a major campaign, but they're certainly more varied and patrol-like.  It's an innovation to be sure.

I like them, they seem to make a campaign a little more varied, and such, make it seem a little more real.  I mean, doing simple patrols and engaging in one or two ships every mission is good and all, but it gets repetitive after a while.  Throwing in a few Non-combat missions makes it a little more interesting.  I'd like a couple missions, though, where its actually detrimental to go to Red Alert right from the get go.  Might make for some "interesting decisions" especially if not everyone is set to Mortal enemies in the dip settings.  While an encounter between a Rom and Gorn would almost instantly start off by exchanging plasma torpedoes, Rom vs Hydran, or Gorn vs Lyran might not shoot at each other as a reflex action, if both ships pass by at Condition Green, they might be more likely to simply keep on going, or even trade a few goods.  An occasional non-aligned encounter would be a boon for a Feddie to go in at Condition Green.

I'd like an option in the comms panel to call in reinforcements at the 10 min mark in a patrol in case you're having trouble killing the AI in non PvP situations. Don't know if it's doable, but I'd like to see newbies or less tactically skilled players still be able to win missions so it's fun for them solo. Doing so would forfeit all their mission prestige tho.

Seperately, patrols, especially those near a front line can't be too long. Long and repeatitive = boring. We can't have that on a PvP server. I'll have to take a look at the missions closely myself, something I haven't done, but we need to test them and get them to work 1st. Then we can tweak them into being super fun.

Agreed.
