    I would genuinely wonder what this other studio would get out of the deal.

    It sounds like its just a sort of outside contracting to help with the labor that they already have

    In-game cloaks that come too late.

    Chris mentioned partnering with another studio to share assets, but said he didn't want to jinx it and couldn't discuss it further. That's going from memory. Can't remember what day or time stamp.

    An interesting idea.

    I wonder what could be accomplished with this method?

    I think they are just contracting people like they did for EP1 to do maps.

    If that were the case, Chris saying that he didn't want to jinx a potential partnership by disclosing it before it's official seems a weird way to describe hiring a contractor.

    I personally don’t care who it is, as long as they can deliver and are on time and do good work. If they can do that, it’s all good....

    I would have thought Warren's gang would be too busy on System Shock 3. They should go and get Dr. Cat and John Miles!

    Really?
    What's all the grief with MS about?
    MS makes good games. Without MS there would be no WC Privateer (or better, we possibly still would be waiting for it because Chris Roberts would still be in charge).
    They dropped money on inXile to make WL3 awsome. They dropped money on Obsidian to make a potential Outer Worlds francise awsome.
    Yeah sure they don't do a lot of sales and I dislike their store as well. But folks, comparing it with EA? That's a bit (read as "very") far fetched.
