[OFP] US: Training Day by David Le Vengeur

Review by SFG

Overview

Good information, but I spotted a spelling error (no biggie).

Intro

Pretty good, and not editor driven :)

Briefing

The Briefing was good; sounded like an ordinary training day, but when you shoot the 7 targets and go back to your leader, the objectives don't trigger. Also, later on, they don't update; not sure if that's the way he intended or not.

Mission

It starts out rather boring, you could say. I personally thought it was just a training mission and that's it. Fortunately, it's more than that.

Basically you're a tired grunt in training who really wants sleep. One of the things that took me a while to accomplish was finding my tent. What I liked was that in every different tent I entered someone would talk to me, so it was fun just trying all the tents out :). Some real good atmosphere in there. He really paid attention to detail. The story keeps on moving throughout the mission, which is really one of its strong points. It's pretty much a trigger-based mission but don't underestimate it.

Special

The scripting was pretty good also, you could tell the author really worked hard on this mission.

Overall

(Review Date: Apr 2002) This is a good mission that is worth a 7, but with some flaws. If you're looking for a medium hard/long mission, download this. Be aware that you have to get close to some things to activate.
