You literally made a whole game for it to slice up content for more $... I can’t even believe I’m surprised anymore. Excuses made just to divvy up development time and effort for an entirely separate product. Your greed knows no bounds!________________________
And people are praising it now for being "only" $40. And what are you getting for those $40, which is not cheap btw, you get 5 maps with zero dlc later. And the gameplay isn't innovative either, it's literally 5v5 dogfighting and another mode full of bots. All of this sounds objectively far worse than what BF2 offered in Starfighter Assault. Interesting objectives like taking out enemy cruisers and fighters, while bomber squadrons swooped in to target your capital ship or whatever. SA is a great mode, all it needed was new maps and possibly new ships, it didn't need a whole new game which is objectively a worse Starfighter experience.
