Hello Gustafsson, I really enjoyed the New Order. I found Machine Games crafted the some of the best gunplay ever designed in an FPS. But, I had a big complaint with the New Order. Gun fights had a tendency to be relatively small, and a little spread out for my taste. I feel this damaged the pacing of your excellent game.

However I just finished The Old Blood, and oh my God, it was fucking awesome. It completely fixed the problems I had with the New Orders pacing. You guys improved on TNO COMPLETELY in my eyes.

So my question is: Was The Old Blood designed with a conscious effort to include more combat engagements along with lengthening the time of combat engagements (i.e. more enemies)? Or was The Old Blood simply made using the same design philosophies of TNO?

Either way, TNO was a great first game from Machine Games. The Old Blood, in my eyes, was a fucking master piece. Love your company and can’t wait to see what else you guys make in the future.
