^^^ Agreed. Online war players are not the furball mentality that would be put off by 15 seconds away from combat.
Remember that the thread was about being "boring and superficial." I find it interesting that in that context anyone would have a problem with something MORE immersive to the campaign. You land, you get debriefed.
Another idea, seems like a no-brainer. Make the format of the briefing screen extremely moddable. Allow for any normal file types to be linked into the briefing. Meaning a campaign designer could put videos in if they wish, even flash files, jpgs of real BDA images, etc. Allow for a debrief screen as well.
Give the designers open-ended tools.
