And in predictable fashion, this omnibus volume was gobbled up by hungry fans! Even Kyle, who&#8217;s back in Japan for a while, raced to get his copy before it was sold out at a bookstore&#8230;and that&#8217;s just today! It may not be selling faster than the earlier omnibus volumes, but Front Mission is still beloved by the Japanese! And the series is still on-going with Young Gangan so a tenth volume is guaranteed&#8230;and it&#8217;s all but assured that the story will continue into 2013!<\/p>\n<p>And for things that are not official, we have finally released <strong>Patch 2 for Front Mission 2<\/strong>! And as a bonus, we have also released <strong>Prototype Patch 1 for Front Mission Alternative<\/strong>! That&#8217;s right, the team hasn&#8217;t forgotten about this nifty genre spin-off! Patch 2 for <strong>Front Mission 2<\/strong> pretty much covers the most our programmers have been able to decipher in terms of re-inserting back the text assets. You can read our earlier blog posts on this matter&#8230;I&#8217;m not rehashing it again! And the Prototype Patch 1 for <strong>Front Mission Alternative<\/strong> is bare-bones, but hey, it&#8217;s a start!<\/p>\n<p>Our development of <strong>Front Mission 2<\/strong> from our last prototype build is worth a shout because for whatever the reason, all of us decided to really go for it and get things done. While it doesn&#8217;t match our heroic 4-month effort to work with the 1,000+ page tome for bases section in <strong>Front Mission 5 ~Scars of the War~<\/strong>, nearly a month&#8217;s worth of working with at least 100 pages of dialogue was heroic enough.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a few other new updates, but none of them really compare to the above two patch releases. On a parting note, this day and month is significant in the Front Mission universe. Why? Because it&#8217;s the day that the Alordesh coup d&#8217;etat in <strong>Front Mission 2<\/strong> officially ends! Neat coincidence, eh?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today marks a pretty big day for the Front Mission brand, both officially and for the fans!
