That's right Ben, compare yourself to Star Wars. That's the intelligent thing to do.

So did he say SQ42 was 3 episodes or 5?

I'm pretty sure he said 3.

Three, I think it's possible SQ42 episode 1 will be split into 5 release chunks. They said something about doing that a year or more ago.

someone mentioned Roger Ebert calling Wing Commander "submoronic," and I just wanted to say that the Roger Ebert documentary on netflix is absolutely horrifying if you ever sit down and decide to watch it. There is a reason he didn't have any pictures or anything published before he died

You take the blue paarp - the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red paarp - you stay in pre-alpha, and I show you how deep the sperg wallet goes.

good job getting that question answered commandos

showing mo-cap production and scenes from the story is not spoilers but showing a mission at this point would be a major spoiler sorry

Given the general hesitation of the actors to this point talking about S42, Croberts and Sandi I bet they can't wait to come back to film another 40 hours of video for the rest of the episodes.
