: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" ?

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.

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:

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.
