In the Russian RTS Broken Arrow, a grumpy general's phrase was repeated so often that it spawned a whole techno track

Some gamers have already been able to try out Broken Arrow. While exploring the RTS, an incident occurred that took an unexpected turn.

The developers of the Russian real-time strategy game Broken Arrow shared the origin story of one of the tracks. As it turned out, it all began with a small bug discovered during testing.

The repetition of the same phrase in Broken Arrow and the subsequent community reaction inspired the creation of a track titled “What Are You Doing Commander”:

“The story goes: During the first beta, we had a script bug where every few minutes a general would shout at the player: "What are you doing commander? Focus on your objective!" [What are you doing, commander? Focus on your objective!]. This quickly became a meme in the community. Due to the popularity of the joke, the idea was born to create such a cool techno track!

That is how accidents can lead to creativity that will warm and delight the gaming community!”.

The release of Broken Arrow is scheduled for June 19; you can add the game to your Steam wishlist at the following link.
