For the “Bad Cop” route what do you mean by turning criminal? Like a renegade police officer who will do anything they can to bring the archangel crew and their associates to justice even if it even going against orders, causing property damage, or even accidently causing innocent lives to be lost?

Ben here.
Max and Myself thank you for your support.
Thank you, we bounced our work around but Max did the most work on this update since I’m busy helping my family with some issues.
The term Bad Cop is only a variable status, so most of the route’s names are not to be taken literally.
The Bad Cop route means that you started out as either a cop or before the attack at the mill you turned informant, and once the incident happened, you turn on the FBI to help the Archangels escape, becoming a fugitive yourself, cutting ties with the FBI, thus becoming a bad cop.
Sorry, I don’t have a good vocabulary.
I am glad people are anticipating this game, but as for the private thread, that is for Max to decide.
It’s basically what he does all day long…

I’ve noticed that this game has a TON of possible ROs, and not a single sexual tension or interests in the opposite sex from our MC, so i was wondering if this new update of yours has that installed?
Also, the MCs bestfriend, which is a guy since my MC is female, is too effeminate as a guy and too much of a scaredy cat. I get that he’s called mouse but he doesn’t really have to live up to his name to a T.

I’ve been constantly thinking about implementing this, but I personally don’t like it when the game forces the MC to have thoughts about sexual tension or interest towards a certain character or gender before they’ve decided on a relatinoship. But when a relationship is in the context, I’m all for sexual tension. 
You’ll notice that my game has a lot of customizations, but not once did I write the game asking about the MC’s sexuality, or race.
I personally like open options and flexibility before going all out. Who or what the MC is before the premise is set, is all on you as the reader. You pick who you want, and be with whoever you want, the game won’t ask questions, the game won’t judge… unless you start a relationship with more than one person at the same time…
That’s… kind of the point. Mouse is supposed to play the role of the helpless young sidekick, regardless of the gender. In the game, there’s all kinds of people with all kinds of personalities. Their gender doesn’t determine whether they’re scared cat or a badass soldier, their personality and history does.
But then again these are all my opinion. What do you all think? Should I implement some sort of option to choose the MC’s sexuality? Should I make Edwyn (Male version of Mouse) less of a helpless little sidekick?

No! It’s cute that way.

I think it might not be right to have the female version of a character come across as weak/the helpless little sidekick and the male version not. Personally, I like Mouse just fine as is, regardless of gender.
Although… I kind of… never looked at Mouse as an RO. I love him as a baby brother type 
(which I’ve never experienced before, as the baby of my own family, so I still think that’s good on you as the writer to somehow invoke an older sibling instinct in me lol)
Also if you want to add a sexuality option, that’s cool. I kind of enjoy establishing my MC as the world’s biggest gay lol. But if it won’t really have an effect in anything, then it’s probably not too important to concern yourself with.

It’s most likely an error in the informant route when MC was escorted by Reville in the hospital Gabriel showed up and even opened the elevators for MC.
This was when I already defected from the Archangels.

Now that you’ve said it like that, i see your point and i totally get what you mean. Quite a few CoG games here lets you choose whatever the hell you want but in the next moment, would say basically “that’s a shitty choice. Guess you’re a shitty person, if you’re going with that”. So i totally get it and appreciate the fact that you let the players form an opinion about different characters first while playing through the whole thing without the author trying to push an RO or two our way. Kudos for you, man.
Now THIS is another thing i really appreciate in the game. ALL of the CoG games i’ve played through makes us decide what gender, race, hair color, clothing article, pronouns, etc, when i, personally, really think that not all of those things are THAT important. Maybe that’s partly because i’m just a normal heterosexual female and I’m just here to read, decide and just play through a game an author has already spent so much of their time on. But i really just don’t care about any of that. I could be a pansexual non-binary space helicopter for all i care. And your game proved that the gender, pronouns, race, sexual preference etc option is not really necessary to make a game really awesome!
As i said before, i dont really care about sexuality as chemistry can play out naturally between characters so i think you’re fine on that end. But if Mouse’s character is indeed like that, then maybe she/he could be more useful towards the end and could finally grow some balls and come to our MCs rescue. Especially during the last battle between the chicago outfit and The Archangel team. You know, instead of being useless and scared all the time just hiding behind a laptop.

To be fair with Mouse, they are not useless. They provide support to the group which is important for any field mission.
It’s like telling the finance department that they are useless since they don’t bring in the money while the sales department are useful since they bring in the money. 
Well, that’s how I interpret your wording anyway.
