Minimum campaign duration?

Post by Artman40 »

Has anyone tried to test on how fast it is possible to complete "First steps" and "New Hope" campaigns?
How to optimize the build to get through these campaigns as fast as possible? I know that you can rush at least one of the levels in a New Hope.

The third one you can do in under a minute. Kill the biter base around the crash, then do a leeroy jenkins right into the middle of the lower base and snag the computer core.

I wonder if it was developer's oversight or meant to be that way.

Probably oversight, this is alpha (albeit, an extremely complete and highly polished alpha compared to some other games). Ideally the computer core should be hidden inside a biter nest that you have to destroy before you can get it.

The entire point of that mission is to practise military based construction and logistic chains. Theres just a way around it at the moment :D
