I literally don't understand why people still think this is a prank or a hoax.
Really, lol. I guess a "troll" just registered the trademark as well. :P

Yep, all the work of trolls.
And I'm also lying about the emails, of course, as I am known here as a serial liar.
And it of course makes no commercial sense to make ra3 now considering there maybe a big revival on the horizon.

I'm with you on this, but it's one thing to say these things are happening, it's another to see the evidence things are happening. It's why I want screenshots, a teaser, something. I'm not going to make a blind investment, in time or otherwise.

They only got the trademark 7 days ago so I doubt any work has really been done at all, I mean it does say 2016 for a reason.

Would have figured they had done some work beforehand, considering 2016 means anywhere from release in 7 months to a year and a half. Not exactly long in terms of game development. At least on a competitive level. Late 2016 fairs better then before.

  It's too soon; people won't stay hyped for a small-time game like this from now till the release date.  Hype is like a combustible material - you can only light it once, and after the flame goes out, it's out for good.  The hype for a triple-A game is a slow-burning votive candle, for RA3, it's a 4th of July sparkler.

Confirming that the changes were done by GI as opposed to someone unofficial.

Sounds good. Thanks for the input. Has anyone asked about anything that's directly RA3 related?
I guess GI is watching GTM and they might have even seen this thread.

I think it's trolling.

Who would do a sequel for a 100-people fan base anyway ?

Besides, i'm just gonna be a party pooper and say it will be a scrublord version of RA2 with pretty graphics but sh**ty component choice and no variety at all.

I'm fine with RA2 as it is.


Agreed and you've got the Robot Wars mod coming out which practically a whole new game so I'd rather have that than a RA3.

Until there is a video of it I'm not buying it.

You're in the RW Mod FB group chat. Mike told us all in there, see if you weren't skiving then you'd know days ago, and know about all the BB competitors last month. :P #rwra2modcrewknowledge.

Well for all the talk, I haven't actually seen any emails or proof yet.

We've been in contact with them, they acknowledged the site change and we're extremely vague in their response. No details disclosed, they simply said "yes, looks like the website has changed"

More emailing has occurred. I'm convinced RA3 is going to be a real thing and is on the right path.

So apparently the meme "RA3 will never be a thing" has been shot down...

It was the same with the bot exchange back then :P

Ra3 might happen.  Okay although I still go with what I said earlier.

I'm cautiously optimistic. If RA3 actually gets made and published, I'll probably become active in the community again.
