This is something i found on net so it's not mine but tested and it works you have to do this everytime game updated. BACKUP That file before modifying.
1.find GearGame.b2index file on your install folder.
2.open with hex editor anything you can use.i use notepad++ with hex plugin.(forget notepad it's dead. use hxd)
3.search for Coalition_MSStudios.bk2 unicode or ansi.
4.change Coalition_MSStudios.bk2 to Cdalition_MSStudios.bk2 or anything really just change one letter on it so it can't find the file.
5.find TheCoalitionLogo.bk2 and do same as number 4.
after this test your game.at the begining something happen to texture on my pc but after reload it fixed itself and never happen.there might be other side effects so use it at your own risk.

edit:
for offset Movies.Coalition_MSStudios.bk2 on 0021CDE0 , TheCoalitionLogo.bk2 on 0021CE10 more or less

Hi, i use notepad++ with hex plugin and can't find Coalition_MSStudios.bk2 unicode or ansi in GearGame.b2index file they fixed it? Or i'm doing something wrong?

[Zareff]

unfortunately i don't have the game installed so i can't check it but i'm thinking reinstall. might look at it then. one more thing to add you can use "hxd" to hex edit files. it's better than notepad++. if i remember right notepad++'s hex plugin not updated anymore.

Yeah i forgot to say i also tryed it with hxd with same result, can't find it in this file.

okay i downloaded the game.( damn thing still has that dubstep fps on new nvidia driver on my machine so unplayable for me.) looked at the file and it's still there and working. while searching use the "MSStudios" word, you can easily find it. one line(or two) below you will see "CoalitionLogo" too. change their last letter.

Im press Ctrl+F and use MSStudios in search field and it's show nothing found, am i need to search it manually? May be you can Send me edited file somehow?

It's only possible to find "VisualStudioSourceCodeAccess" i'm tryed search with just "Studio"

[Zareff]

change your text encoding to "editor encoding". it can't find on unicode utf-16.

Where can i change it? I can't find such option. OK found it and it's the same result can't find "MSStudios"

you are doing exactly i did but it doesn't show up.hmm maybe different language cause different file names i really don't know. Are you playing this game other than english? maybe that changes file name and turn out different name maybe?? did you check offset i write if it's not there nothing i can do about it. i can't post modified game files.
