I liked the stats in UT, so I wouldn't mind seeing something like that. Even local stats would be welcome, to see how well you do with particular weapons, etc. Yeah, it would be nice to see....  [Read More]

I think it's too early to say, but I tend to agree that you'll start off in the Academy, probably going through some training lessons. Then as Mero Vilul said, you'll probably go on some kind of investigation, with Kyle by your side. But that's pure...  [Read More]
