Re: RIP Irrational Games

:cry:
I read long time ago when T2 brought Irrational Games and I thought it was not bad, but that so sad to read that.

Edit: why not move the thread in "General Discussion" ?

Re: RIP Irrational Games

If they shutter, maybe there's a chance for the soruce code to be released on GNU GPL licence. It's probably not a common thing but last year something like this happened. A Polish community acquired the soruce code of Colobot for further development. http://colobot.info/license.jpg

In case you didn't know about a side project they ditched:

Would be nice if someone could make it happen.

I have the Source Code ;P
Some time ago a known guy (who created a known cheat ;P ) uploaded not only Classes and Headers, but all cpp engine stuff... link broken :P

Swat's owner is Actvision.
Engine owner is Epicgames. (A old engine btw)
Masterserver owner is... well forgot it.
Many logos and trademarks involved.

I like the old swat with their bugs and etc.
I just hope that some 'new' community Swat be just a 'remake'
Just wait for UDK UE4 support and interested ppl, like McTash.

EDIT: btw, when I give no weapons to VIP Rescue bot its like Division 9... just need make them bite me.

About Irrational Games... no words.
We are your legacy... RIP.

Re: RIP Irrational Games

Why are you suggesting Irrational Games is dying?

The founder wrote he would like to get back to a smaller structure.
He explicitely wrote he would fire all but 15 members and will redefine his 'endeavor and [...] goal'.

At least, after 17 years of 'the usual stuff', he has got inspiration & motivation back. Sounds like good news. :P

Why are you sad? :eh:

Re: RIP Irrational Games

IG is now a branch of Take2...this is not bad for workers but it become a small branch, and probably too small to create a full game like Bioshock.

But wait and see, but I'm not so confident.
