i did with ply. it is really hard and you must put speed at 2-3 to have time to manage everything.  

Running, scrambling, flying
Rolling, turning, diving, going in again
Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die

The campaigns are unworthy. No true challenge. Only did it on Easy for the story and for boredom. But yeah, OP2 Hard is only hard because they give you a severe disadvantage and the AI a huge advantage.

I haven't done the campaigns on hard yet, and neither Plymouth Spaceship.

Like someone said, put game speed low and practice the campaign scenarios a few times, and they are quite easy.

Plymotuh starship is still a mystery to me, how your supposed to beat without cheating.

Cheating is just takes the fun out of it. And you can't say you've beaten the game.
There can be Only one. Wipe Them out. All of Them.

Old player still playing. Visit Spark for a game of Outpost 2

Amazingly I have beaten all campaigns and colony missions on hard, basically it requires a lot of patience and saving.  For the colony missions to survive the opposing factions attacks all you have to do is build up massive ammounts of material and base before progressing into the next tech phase. Also to ensure you get rare metals as fast as you can you can save, research it, find the nodes, then load the game and just build a normal base near that node, and build up everything. Four common smelters on a mine, 2-3 mines, 6-8 vehicle factories, 50 scientists + 2 adv labs + 2 standard labs. You have to constantly build forces. It's all very taxing and difficult for the colony games, but you can do it. The campaigns on the other hand are just a f***ing b**** to do, but persistance pays off. Play the missions over and over and eventually you beat them.... taxing but rewarding.

He hasn't even done it on easy. Huge waste of time either way, easy or hard.

I think I got to mission 7 or 8 on hard. I did not mean to though, It was my first time playing and I had decided the best way to improve my skill was to start playing on hard from the very beginning


And then on easy I got to mission 10 I think but I cheated then and just read the story posted here  :P

I know I've beaten both on Easy, maybe one or both of the campaigns on Medium.  It's been years since that happened, though!  In any case they're way too tedious.  I'd say I like the colony games the best, but they too get boring after a few times through.

And as I mentioned to Lev a few weeks back on IRC, I now primarily use a Mac so I have to dig out the old PC laptop if I want to play OP2.

it's impossible to beat op2 in hard!!  <_<
already in easy, it is necessary to cling...
I have finished the 9th mission of the plymouth campaign, the microbe come very quickly, if you must moreover build the foundry, the structure factory, the command center, under ennemy fire  :blink:
