Again, A:CM the game (SP and MP) were handed off to Time Gate for about year while the Aliens team (team Pecan) were pulled in to finish BL:2...
And no I didn't get this off reddit, I was saying days before (look back in this thread) these stories broke on twitter and reddit... I work in the Industry and if you do too you will know its not very big and you quite frequently hear directly from people who work or worked at certain companies and games...
Like I said before, the story of GBX's Furious 4 is another doozy. These things aren't uncommon they just never find the light of day.
Also, as I said before any of these other stories broke, Sega did NOT know at the time that GBX pushed the majority of the development to Time Gate while it finished up BL:2... Hence, why you see Sega coming out denying these rumors. It may seem like in front they are backing up GBX, but in fact that are making sure they don't look like idiots for not knowing... Again, Sega pays GBX for the game, not the other way around... They didn't pay Time Gate to make this game..
I guarantee there are some pretty heated talks in the GBX offices with Sega execs about the true nature of the development of this game.
Also, quickly think about it... without knowing any of this information, what do you think GBX benefits more from:
a) Finishing BL2 and DLC
b) Finishing A:CM and DLC
I already said this was old news.

Anyway. Not buying any of it. Even your multiple choice offerrings don't make the parity check. Thats a blatant ultimatum, this titles been in cascading cross developement for 6 yrs.
The picture you guys totting this around to any who will listen is to get GBX off the hook. You claim that 80%+ of the campaign was outsourced to Timegate, but that shouldn't have beeb blah, blah.
But heres the problem, see? No one got past the Timegate reference and peoples psychology being what it is will always return logic to Timegate. You're creating a scapegoat for GBX.
Second reason why its bulshittery is because you don't referrence Demiurge anywhere. Demi and GBX did the very first nterviews together last year to discuss the title. Its also confirmed that Demi took the title out of cryo and redid 90% of the groundwork across all platforms before handing it back to GBX. Demi are the only constant dev group on this because of the Wii U verion.
In short, stop trying to make a scapegoat for GBX. Its thier fault and no others. TG could never have done the story anyway because primaries can
only come from GBX they do the design solely.
This is quite funny. Are you the same guy across all forums on this because heaps of people are buyin it. You know what happens if they latch onto you right?
