I just realized. DECENT MULTIPLAYER. PLEASE. MAKE IT HAPPEN GABRIEL!

RA2's multiplayer seemed pretty good when it launched.

For all of us who were there for that.

Yeah we dug up some filings for claims of IP related to RA3. If this is a hoax, it's elaborate.

Is Defiantely real.

Whether it will be realistic though I don't know.

If it is real (and all signs are pointing toward it being real) then I hope it is easier to mod than Robot Arena 2, and I hope they don't rush it either so as to have a better game.

I thought the developer went defunct years ago?
Damn I hope this is real.

Given enough time and effort, there's no such thing as an unmoddable game. I wish to remind you that the RA2 modding scene basically owes everything to a few brave souls that went ahead and reverse engineered file formats, APIs and game code (notably: dummee [original GMF and Python work], the DSL team [lu-tze!], Madiaba, Clickbeetle, and many more). GI did help around by releasing some of their tools, but this was much later, and the tools were TBH a bit useless by then.

You can rest assured that, if such a game comes out, I will take a dab at it. However, it will certainly not be a one-man job.

I can confirm that Mike has sort of secured funding for this but it is being marketed as a quick and easy money grab based on riding the popularity of BB being restarted not as a good title that can stand on its own merits.

Still, good physics engines are pretty much preboxed products at this point so it could be pretty good.

//edit: mike not mark, ugh

My cynical side has always feared this would be the company's motivation.

Mike? And yeah I figured BB played a role in this.

A good physics engine is for sure a good start.

GI hasn't existed for the better part of a decade so it'll be interesting if he pulls together a team for this or just outsources development to india.

It's probably going to get cracked and thrown around everybody's PM boxes the day of release anyway.
