Endless Darkness: Virolahti Ravage Escape [SP]

Description
UPDATE 22/03/2020: Release 1.0

-New Quest!: Turn on electrical grid in Virolahti biggest city and capital: Virojoki to help people endure the endless night.

Introduction:
You wake up alone in the middle of Virolahti without your team. You forgot how you got here, but you remember your missions: investigate the cause of the eternal night this region has been immersed for 7 years. And killing General Nates.

Virohlati people has lost faith of seeing sunlight ever again, and the darkness has manifested in demonic cults, violence and pillage. Maybe we can help them regain hope.

Features:

- Atmospheric: Endless night, daylight doesn't exist in Virohlati. Only a few lights in the whole island will guide you through your journey. This added to random starting location with no map makes orientation very challenging at the start. Random weather.

- Replayability: semi random starting location in different chosen areas of the map.

- Ravage modules: zombies and bandits roam the area, hunger and thirst make your mission and survival hard. Only specific radiation known areas, maybe worth to explore?

- Vandeanson's apocalypse: dynamic random bandit camps, hideouts and helicopter crashes for extra loot and randomness. Infection and bleeding system.

- Task driven structure: Complete your objectives and escape the island. You can also just explore and survive thanks to Vandeansons and Ravage features giving varied emergent and dynamic gameplay, and the Beautiful Virohlati map.

- Follow the clues and intel to uncover hand-crafted places of interest, extra loot, allies? and vital information.

- Starting equipment set to let you fight from the start, and not only loot. But hunger, thirst, infection and wounds encourage to look up for supplies and ammo. You have no map from the start, so your first priority is to get one.

Doesn't appear to be a list of required mods on the right side

Thanks. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
I'm currently not playing Arma, maybe when I come back to the game some day.

congratulations I really liked your mission, now do it during the day with more goals

It's the concept of the mission. I understand why would not appeal to everyone.

This looked awesome until I read that it's always night.

hahaha. Yeah the beginning is hardcore, it becomes easiers. Keep in mind that there are many beginnings, so the mission is replayable. Like 9 possible starting areas with different close points of interest. Some are harder than others.

Tips:
- Use the flashlight on your pistol.
- Follow the lights. Usually there is something useful or important near the few lights on the Island.

I'm happy I managed to convey the disorientation and fear.Thanks for playing!

I tried this tonight, I got the hatchback with some fuel. I hit a tree and it took out my car lights, then I closed the game hahaha. Great atmosphere but I need more courage lol.
