Planetary Annihilation Lore

One things about TA that is fun was the expanded lore that gave reasoning and technological feats for the various factions. Will PA have a similar sort of expanded universe technological level? Considering that most members of Uber worked on both Supcom and TA, I really don't see why they wouldn't add this. Even if not many people read said expanded universe, it's still something that people like me enjoy.

What do you guys think of this?

it was good, but not enough. planetary annihilation have lots of potential on its story, why not add more ?

Hell, some of us even had a go at writing fan lore for the game.

And we did have the recent lore/retcon of the new descriptions in GW for the commanders that is pretty cool.

Stop trying to make a games company write fiction. They know **** all about fiction, they know how to design games. Go to a library or a book store and buy some sci fi fiction from a novelist.

Do you, genuinely, have any idea how anything works? I don't ask this often but a lot of your posts are dubious-level trollbait at best.

It's not scifi, but a series of novels in the form of video games, nonetheless. First released: 1990

I didn't see the OP ask for a single player mode, I saw the OP asked for some literature to read.

The multi-player mode is more important than the single player's.
Many players only play the campaign story once and go for multi-player game forever.
Single player story takes too many manpower to build, but it can't provide the long term content for the game.

The accounts team doing a cost/benefit analysis.

Which is worlds apart from your first post stating that games developers have no idea about science fiction.

I would love a single player only rts!

Just go full ham in the story, that'll cut the cost down!

He said a week before the release of Fallout 4.

They don't, hence the comment about them hiring a writer.

Sure.. hire a writer or a team of writers to write an amazing story... and sell it as a text file tagged onto a game that nobody will ever read. Or better yet, sell it as a special edition hard copy that only 5 people will buy. Yeah, great.

If you want science fiction stores about robots and planets then there is already a wealth of material out there.

It costs money in order to higher a writer and make lore. Also considering Uber just layoff more employees were is the money going to come from.

Story driven single player campaign would be great, like what supcom did.

(and very, very expensive)

People can have knowledge of more than one area. It'd be best if they hired someone(s), sure.

But that doesn't mean you can trash their knowledge, because you have no idea. Especially when you demonstrate such a fundamental lack of games development when you cite designers as being the whole team
