Wait a second! I think I figured it out. Considering SC's record I think that maybe Illfonic was working with the Unreal Engine so obviously they had a few problems with the merge.

But funniest will be the Believers who'll continue fellating the Christ Robbers and blame other for having failed him, them and the DREAM.

It's very appropriate. Queen Amidala used the gungans to achieve her own ends. All it took for them to sacrifice themselves was to be told what they wanted to hear.

I think he's a good hundred pounds shy of being able to properly disappoint her but then I don't understand how overweight people work.

E: that might've been too mean, sorry. I really dislike that man on a personal level, cheap shots aside.

From what we saw of Star Marine that "module" required very little hackery. Its just a basic cry engine space FPS and if you look at Illfonic projects i doubt the would even try their hand at deep engine hackery.

That's right Ben, compare yourself to Star Wars. That's the intelligent thing to do.

So did he say SQ42 was 3 episodes or 5?

So the stretch goals say that we get 50 missions for Squadron 42. Did they backtrack on this? We only get like 20, then we have to pay for the other 30?
