Cool beans
YESSSSSSSSSSSS
But will it have mod support? Or even some additional campaign levels?
Whoa, it was only on consoles until now? Bizarre. Enjoy, PCbros. Shit’s nifty with friends.
I’m surprised it took ‘em 4 years. Making an indie game and not releasing it on the PC is a little silly.
Neat. I enjoyed the game, but the online community tends to play Insane Mode only, which I think is an utter waste of time. (Bland, injected difficulty. Enemies’ stats are simply raised through the roof and that’s it.)
