Description
A volcano erupted near Tanoa. Its explosion caused the ejection of materials into the atmosphere, causing unprecedentedly strong storms and earthquakes. Join the brave pilots from IDAP helping in this dangerous situation.

In this scenario, your mission will be to take the helm of a transport helicopter and complete a series of procedurally generated tasks (5 in SP. in COOP this number can be adjusted.) while avoiding otherworldly thunderstorms capable of destroying your helicopter.

Possible tasks include:
- Transport IDAP personnel between camps.
- Deliver Food Supplies.
- Deliver Medical Supplies.
- Deliver Offroad vehicle to outpost.
- Save a civilian boat from the sea.


WHAT THE HECK ARE "OTHERWORLDLY THUNDERSTORMS"?
These storms are areas about 1 km in diameter that move around the map. It's your job to avoid them, because if your helicopter gets caught in them, you're in for a shocking end to the mission.

But all is not lost if you get caught. The last chance for you is to turn off the engine and glide to the end of the marked storm area, or descending to less than 5 m should save you from being struck.


APEX DLC IS REQUIRED TO PLAY THIS SCENARIO.


Procedural generation is used in the mission to make it fresh and interesting on every playthrough.
Everything from behaviour of the thunderstorms through IDAP camp locations to task types is subject to randomization.

Please note that this mission has a very wide range of difficulty due to the number of factors controlled by the RNG.



COOP mode is available for up to 8 players.

Takes somewhere between 20 - 25 minutes to complete the mission.

apologies that doesnt help, I dont know what or where the support menu is :P

Also there seems to be a bug at the pick up point at Gerebu, the landing spot directly north of the South West base. all the people are stood under a tree, and even landing 12m from them they wont get in the heli.

still enjoying this mission better than any other mission of its kind though. lol

Diilicious hover with a cursor over the base you wanna move to and then select fast travel in support menu.

I managed to crashland and the helicopter has a repair kit inside of it but my character doesnt have a backpack so i cant pick it up to repair the helicopter with it.

Also how do you fast travel? ive read the instructions ingame but the bases are not selectable and im not sure where the "support menu" is? does it mean your own map or a static map inside the bases themselves?

haha, yea thats uh... a lot harder wow :D max storms is punishing, really hard to mentally keep track of them all

Diilicious You can adjust some parameters when you launch this mission in MP. Maybe try with that. :>

Ive played many dozens of hours of missions just like this and this one was BY FAR the best.

I really like the storms and the hostile AA positions.
My only gripe is that it isnt longer! :D
It would be very awesome if the longer you played the more storms there were to avoid up to a limit of like 20 or something.
There were some missions that needed you to go really close to the rebel positions to pick up stranded people. maybe in boats or something.

After playing this now its hard to go back to the other similar missions that have less of a vibe to them.

Very good mission!

Okay, "asshold". XD
At no point did I ask you to speak "my language" as english is not my native language but it is the language of the World Wide Web (which would ya know it just so happened to be named in english) and if you are interested in being understood by someone who does not speak yours I suggest using the one we collectively agreed on.

If you find the number of thunderstorms too high you can start mission in MP mode where you can adjust it if I remember correctly.

I sincerely wish you a good day. :>

Have to many red circles in the map. Its hard to play with so many thunders. Do you want a drawning to understand asshold? This is internet World web or EUA web? Im dont speak your language jerk

GideBD Sir, I have no clue what you are trying to say. This is the internet. We speak english here.

Tem muitos twisters no mapa. Não tem como tirar algumas tempestades de raios?
