With the end of the Thargoid war, a lot of fantastic content is no longer available, and there has been a petition for some of the content to be restored in 22460. While I do disagree that 22460 should be restored, it would be a pity for the thargoid war content to be lost until Fdev decide to send in another titan (which could be never).
Could scenarios involving thargoid be added to the training missions section?
In all these missions you are given an appropriate AX ship (either a Chieftain or Krait MK II) to run in the scenario.
These could include;-
1. Thargoid Space CZ - You are in a typical CZ with NPC Human AX ships, and the thargoids attack in waves. First Scouts, then Glaves, Sythes and various inteceptors until the final three Hydras attack at the end.
2. Thargoid Defend Planetary Base - You are in a typical CZ with NPC Human AX ships, and the thargoids attack in waves until the final three Hydras attack at the end. You can land at the base to refuel and repair.
3. Thargoid Defend Space Station - Same as above but but around a space station.
4. Hunt the Orthus - Can you destroy an Orthrus before it jump out (This is very difficult as a single player, so if the difficulty might have to be turned down a little).
5. Rescue the humans - There is a damaged megaship with humans trapped onboard. Can you get the humans, dodge the Inteceptors while doing it and then escape before the Sythes steal your humans.
6. Restore the settlement (Odyssey) - You have to land and get a settlement up and running while avoiding the thargoid ground forces.
7. Poison the Spires (Odyssey) - Can you land near a spire site, get the Materials from the spire site, get back to your ship, synth the poison component and then damage a spire.
8. Titan Rescue - Can you sneak into a Titan Cloud and rescue people trapped on the Titan?
9. Titan Assault - Can you penetrate the Titan Cloud and hit the Titan with everything you've got !
I've always imagined a little arcade style booth on the station/base concourse, or somewhere on the ships menus; where you enter a Virtual Environment (hang on that's a Virtual Environment within a Virtual Environment, so is that Virtual Environment x4) and access the training missions, historical scenarios, or CQC. If you could link the above scenarios with a narrative, the above could be created as a mission pack, . It make a nice single player component for people to play offline, and there's at least enough there for a good 10 hour campaign. That adds another question, would people be willing to pay ARX for that kind of content (say 8820 ARX or the £5 package)?
