A Tale of Two Stories (August 11, 2010)

[Bandit LOAF]

In the past we have talked about the story mode planned for Wing Commander Arena (then "Conflict") and how there were two versions--the initial 'burning battle' pitch that was apparently written by someone who had never heard of Wing Commander... and another elaborate plan created in response to our criticism that involved a crazy amount of Wing Commander minutae. It's about time we let you read them for yourself:

• Backstory #1 - July 24, 2006
• Backstory #2 - August 3, 2006 (.DOC)

For my own sake more than anything else, just making a note here that the link to the second story is invalid.

Edit: Thanks for fixing it, LOAF.

I can only imagine you guys reacting to reading that first story...wow. Awful.

Thank you for stepping in and putting them on the right track!

I'm amazed you were able to do a mock-up in only ten days.

Thank you for stepping in and putting them on the right track!

We definitely had a sense that we dodged a bullet there!
