Campaign+: Campaign Overhaul

DISABLE ALL OTHER ADDONS. If you have an issue while no other addons are enabled please put it in the bugs/issues discussion.

Introduces additional enemy variants into the campaign along with new combat encounters and several difficulty adjustments.

Enable the addon campaign_plus in the menu and select the option to play the original game with addons enabled.

If you do not want to replay the whole campaign I recommend starting on specific levels with the command: "addon_play (map name here)". This command can be used via the developer console. The first level with a major enemy addition is a2_drainage: (The second level of Chapter 3 "Is Or Will Be")

Example Command: addon_play a2_drainage

• Fully Upgraded Weapons, no need to search for resin. (You still get weapons when you normally acquire them in the campaign)
  
• New Enemies and Combat Encounters
  
• Difficulty Adjustments: There are various adjustments made to make combat more difficult
  
• I recommend playing on Hard for a full newgame+ experience. Enemies were altered to make the combat more difficult and encourage a more close-range style of combat.
  
• NPC Arena included, is listed as campaign_plus_demo_map

These maps below include new or additional combine encounters

• a2_train_yard Chapter 3 "Is Or Will Be"
  
• a3_station_street Chapter 4 "Superweapon"
  
• a3_hotel_street Chapter 5 "The Northern Star"
