Forum:Why DLC4 INAC is a hoax and counterpoint

intro
the patch released on the 4th of august 2010 contains (in some cases retroactive) support for achievements and support for my new logitech G13. along with this comes echo logs labeled dlc4_. these logs detail a set of missions locations and items involved in a claptrap 'robolution'.

background
late 4th august a note was sent to your humble narrator's talk page exclaiming "Not Sure Who To Give This To". the editor Zackh411 has not editted on any wikia wiki but this and had added patch 1.31 as a _category_ to the DLC4 page. i figured if he could figure out how mail it to me id listen. he did, and i did. he sent me a text of some of the mission logs. i looked very interesting though i admit to some chagrin at the subject of the dlc being INA claptrap, in my opinion, a show stopper. i looked it through and being a benignly pernicious bastard i put a teaser up on the DLC4 page stating it was to be hyperion manufacturer and INAC as the boss. feeling satisfied with that i went over to GBX forums to share. it took some convincing but i explained how to uncompress and look at the files and it was accepted. especially skeptical were two xbox players Chieffie and Legendrew (whom i should point out is still skeptical as of this writing). thrasherv3 suggested someone make a thread "with all the "info" from the patch". legendrew did, and how. this kid dug everything out while i was still collecting points of comparison. the rest shall remain in internet game infamy.

why its a hoax

 * 1) it was sent to me rather than one of their own (GBX forums)
 * 2) its only the equivalent of a text file and some pictures (few)
 * 3) files of this extent were not included in previous patches, only downloaded content
 * 4) it makes great press
 * 5) its fun to think youve _found something_ hidden

why its not a hoax

 * 1)  two words farmory glitch
 * 2) it could be an honest mistake
 * 3) it _is_ very detailed
 * 4) piecemeal DLC
