Why was the Gun Arm not included?

[ShadowHawk27]

I get that this game is set after Robocop 2 but it was never explained how Murphy got the gun arm since i saw it as a plot hole in Robocop 3. I thought for sure this game would solve that problem seeing as the Devs failed to establish that.

I have a strong suspicion that Robocop 3 is unofficially decanonized and generally discarded by the fans.

I find that hard to believe seeing as the store page clearly states the game takes place between 2 and 3 and tells the story of how OCP falls and allows the Japanese corp Kanemitsu in 3 to take over Detroit. So it can't be unofficially decanonized.

As you said, it takes place between parts 2 and 3, so there is not yet a gun arm.

well then Devs failed to establish how Robocop got a hold of the gun arm seeing as Robocop 3 never explained it. They Better make a Story based DLC to explain it's sudden appearance. other wise the flow of the movies and this game won't make sense at all.

It takes place between the second and third movie timewise, but they never said it's the only thing that happens between these two movies.

[ShadowHawk27]

Well they better start making it... other wise i stand by on what i said.

Excuse me? The devs "failed" to make a connection to the movie nobody liked because you wanted to?

What are you talking about? Nobody liked? I liked Robocop 3. It had poor execution, but story wise it was actually quite good. Lots of people liked Robocop 3.

It's mostly considered the weakest by far out of the 3.

I'm not against them using elements of the story but changing how it looks and takes place if they decide to do another game.

I kinda have my doubts though.

[XSnow]

the game is set after Robocop 2 but before Robocop 3? Makes sense why he won't have his gun hand from 3

[Kapteeni Moukku]

I'm glad the "gun arm" is not here. It can stay in the third movie.

[ShadowHawk27]

I'm really surprised that they kept 3 in canon, despite how disliked the 3rd movie is. One of the best things about Terminator: Resistance was getting rid of all the other Terminator movies and closing off the story. Plus it fleshed out more then what the 1st Terminator movie had to offer thanks to the DLC Annihilation Line with the Origin Story of Sergeant Evans played by The late Franco Columbu in the live-action seeing as Evans is indeed the Resistance soldier which forms the basis for the physical likeness of the 800 series Terminator model that infiltrated the Resistance hideout in the movie and began to wipe out the humans within. I'll have to admit that the devs finally gave us the names of those Soldiers that were with Reese for the game that the movie lacked seeing as the movie treated them as just nameless red shirts.

You may say Robocop 3 film was bad but the Devs still acknowledge it as canon. They wouldn't want a video game developer declaring a product that they actively sell as non-canon just because the 3rd movie wasn't as well received as the other two. So Just like the DLC Annihilation Line for Terminator. Robocop Deserves a DLC Story with the origin on how he got his gun Arm weapon.

If I were to guess it was left out simply because they wanted to give you the option to pick up and use other guns aside from the Auto-9. If one of your hands is replaced by a gun then you won't be able to handle the 2 handed weapons in the game.

I understand for the base game but that doesn't mean they can't have a scene where one of the Tech boys show Robocop the weapon they came up with and Robocop can still say something like, ''perhaps later." Or as i mention it can be used for a DLC Story based.
