Is the mission "We Used To Wait" that is set in the suburbs a reference to the Arcade Fire "The Suburbs" Album?

Is the mission "We Used To Wait" that is set in the suburbs a reference to the Arcade Fire "The Suburbs" Album? Great album btw.

Yes. All of the campaign mission names reference a particular song title or lyric of a song. We put together a playlist on Spotify if you would like to hear them all.

Note a couple of them had to replaced: "Rock N Roll McDonalds" should be "Spoil My Joyride Fun" by Wesley Willis (self-released album), and "Cv-1" should be "Iron Galaxy" by Cannibal Ox (from the same album) and a couple of other songs may not be available to listen depending on your region.

That's cool. I had spotted a few others; Chromatics, David Bowie, Portishead, PIL, Gary Oldman. Didn't realise all of the names were a reference though. Completely missed The Walkmen reference even though I love that album.

[Boss Tweed]

not bad though, and clearly some good taste in music

[Thucydides]

Yeah, you devs obviously have more than just a good taste in sci-fi aesthetics

Also I just noticed I wrote Gary Oldman and not Numan haha
