People should really go back and check the development updates... The campaign is a mess.

Update #2, Plot, campaign and more!



"During the campaign, there will be several new characters. Some of these characters are crazy and tormented, but the player should still listen to them because they know very dark secrets and worthy information about the infection."



Where are these characters in the campaign?





"sometimes you will encounter swarms of infected. In the campaign, the player will have a growing personal army to destroy the swarms and free the paths. Those swarms will be dynamic. They will move, they can combine, and they will grow. Because of this, you have to be very careful and strategic on how you expand your colonies."



I'm not seeing this...





"Also, apart from the building colonies and "destroy the swarm" missions, there will be several tactic missions. In these missions, you will only control some units and have to accomplish specific goals like obtaining technology advances from the ruins of the old human fortress and cities, escort a colonist group, destroy infected villages, and many other things."



There are only a few missions types, the escorting mission is not there.





"Both game types are great. We enjoy both a lot, especially the first one. But it seems that all single player campaigns have almost disappeared or has been reduced to the minimal expression like a pack of single crafted levels to play in order. There are exceptions of course. And, They Are Billions will be one of them. :)"



The campaign missions are nothing but a pack of single levels played in order with very similar objectives.





Update #8: Ready for the Survival?





" The campaign will be an epic story with many challenges."



Did I miss something, a few short cutscenes and some newspaper pages. AMAZING... such a gripping story.





"The Campaign mode is the main game for They Are Billions. "



Remember this was their main focus...





"but don't worry, it is going to be like a whole new game with a great story, characters, missions, and lots of new features like the steam trains, the old fortresses, the infected mutant... "



Again what great story, there is no character development, nothing.





"Campaign Development (I)"



" We’re committed to delivering a great Campaign and not just a bunch of survival scenarios that you have to play in sequence. "



They are a bunch of survival scenarios played in order, with no story and nothing of interest...
