In a crazy turn of events, some chinks bought the rights to metal assault, have supposedly been working for quite a while rebuilding it, adding/rebalancing content, and taking out all the p2w bullshit, and are now releasing it on steam in about two weeks under the original name GigaSlave. No idea if it will be playable from US, but their website mentions auto translation system to make it easier for foreigners to play, but that may just be for non chink asians. If everything works out ok, then I will be ecstatic, but I figure westerners aren't going to be able to play conveniently.
