I would much rather have Natural Camouflage, but I would survive with Security Command.

EA producer predicts cheaper games ... more premium extras

And the rabbit hole can only mean more profit for the publisher because they only have to distribute a disk copy once for say $50 and then since the rest of it is digital there is a much large profit margin for the remaining $10-30 (depending on cost of episodic expansion). Plus you can removed missions or story points during the "slimmed and trimmed" cheaper disk copy and use that as a selling point for digital releases later under the title or plot expansion or cut missions. It would be like (for example) selling warcraft 3 or starcraft and only including one race as a set of missions for say $40 and then selling the remaining races at $10 a pop so that you can "experience" the game on a larger stage, when in reality they hacked off some parts to sell later at a higher profit.

The Digital Continuum: 'Comfort' grind

Oh how short everyone's memory is. You haven't experienced an exp grind until you played RF Online. Both its level exp and skill exp were grind based and not balanced to a generation of westerners that came from WoW. To level up your skills you have to use them, which most people resorted to shoving a coin under a key in your keyboard and leaving it connected overnight casting the same skill over and over again when the timer ran out to level it up. Spending a few hours to grind a level was nothing when you could spend weeks straight grinding for the next skill level. There was a reason that no one played RF in the end and it went under. They never reached the right balance in the way exp was handed out to make the people happy. (plus everyone wanted a giant bot and the teams were never balanced).

1930s pilot plucked through time and dropped in the future, wears a rocketpack and carries a gun? There is only one man that fits that description, Commando Cody! (or the Rocketeer of whom Commando Cody is the primary influence).

I'm sold already and I haven't even seen all the screenshots or videos.
