"Get it now?", "Last try evar" and multiple "to recap" posts aren't exactly being polite about it either, though ;)

It sounds like an interesting mix of abilities, so at least they've made things slightly unique for each character. Sounds like they've taken some of Soulstorm as a basis in terms of upgrades, skills etc.

Still, if you can play infinite games in the original campaign then why isn't a cap of 20 too low for the original? Yeah, there are more unique missions (presumably) in the game with the expansion, but if you can play and play then you're still going to hit capping problems.

Meh, I don't think the expansion will be as long, and 'evar' isn't very serious.

It's unlikely that the expansion will be as long - developers tend to put a lot of effort in to a big initial game and then add smaller chunks of content as add-ons. It keeps people happy (because they can carry on playing the same game) while spinning more money out of the title for them and being easier than starting an entire new game from scratch :)
