Will my Squadron 42 tour of duty affect my life expectancy in the open universe? Will I come out of Squadron 42 scarred and with cybernetic limbs, and can I suffer death of a spaceman during my tour of duty?asked by Blazer

The death mechanic is slightly different in the single-player games. I mean, if you look back at the Wing Commanders, right, if you die, you have to start the mission over. It's not like we're going to do the full mechanic there. So, no, we don't expect you to have a shorter lifespan just because you went through Squadron 42. In fact, you may have a longer lifespan because you have learned how to fly a fighter properly by going through the campaign. Hopefully. The Foundry 42 guys will make it properly difficult.
