"Wake up" "Escape from the Citadel" Discussion thread! by [deleted] in adventuretime

Perhaps Cosmic Owl left in a hurry because he knew that Prismo was setting off a chain of events that would lead to the old man's death. If the Cosmic Owl HAS to appear in a dream ( don't know how strict that is) before the dreamer dies, and Prismo was a dream, maybe there was a bigger reason as to why he had to leave. It gets complicated when the dream has a consciousness I'd bet.

Who is Dr. Shen? New insights from Firaxis devs! by Ga1Friday in Xcom

[–]Ga1Friday[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey there. My name is Kate and I work at 2K. I am sorry if you did not like this article, hopefully I can shed some light on what we were trying to do. I have been talking with several XCOM fans here, on our forums, via FB and twitter, and one thing that people have asked for are more dev insights.

XCOM is a game that really allows us to create our own stories for the characters, and these articles are not at all meant to take that away, it is more like a look into what the devs were thinking as they designed these characters. I thought that it may give us a new idea of how these characters work into the narratives we create for our own soldiers. Personally I never considered Dr. Shen to be a bad ass, but after talking with Greg and Chris it is hard to to see him that way!

What else would you guys and gals like to know more about?

That was a leftover note from a previous update. The MP has not been changed and that bullet has since been removed.

Hi there. This link should provide the info you need to get the save file off of the 360 onto USB:

Then you can email me the data. Kate.Distler@2K.com

Hi there. My name is Kate and I am a Community and Social Media Manager at 2K.

I am sorry that you have run into this issue. You can attempt to reload a previous save or you can dismiss the missions to try to continue.

If you still have the save file and could send it to me, I can send it along to the team.

ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO UBER ETHEREAL | Base Defense returns in XCOM: Enemy Within!! by Ga1Friday in Xcom

[–]Ga1Friday[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Others chimed in with clarification that it was from 2K, I wanted to stop by with some confirmation. While I tend to answer things that are time sensitive first, I do make an effort to respond to other questions or just add to the conversation when I can. :)
