: *rolls eyes*
: Anybody else miss the halcyon days where there was a solid wall between
: multiplayer and campaign?

: Oh, that's weird. Plasma weaponry popped up in one game made by a third
: party, with little justification other than "Shields are weak to
: Plasma". Twenty years later, we're still waiting for plasma-based
: small arms and ship-to-ship weapons.

: vehicle shed next door, and the assault carrier parked overhead...

: =D

Yeah, I know those are weak points... but they still existed as part of the canon in some way.
