Yep, Inquisitor you're right. Sorry, think I'm gonna go to bed, that'd probably be best :)

I voted V, my second choice would have been someone else, preferably known for space sims, like Egosoft. I just want the company that gets it (if anyone does at all) is that they're proved to make high quality games and they at least get the original storywriters on the project (or at least talk to them).

What's the time frame (If any?)?
Is all the stuff just getting dumped or is it being moved some place??

The thought of loosing all that work is scaring the hell out of me - For maybe 80% of those missions, Archive is the only place you can get them now!

Gah! Must at least... get... Derelict... (I wish they'd released all the voice-packs they did for it. I had all the original ones but lost them in a HD crash *shakes fist at Seagate*, so now I can only pull the non-talky version... :()

I don't care what developer picks it up. In fact, had any other developer picked up the license I would have been very happy, but not Smart. His games are abortions and his attitude to anyone that does not suck his ass is abysmal. He is not the kind of guy you want in the games industry period.

Many of us here arer not in the least and we have made great stuff for fs2..and that's coause we love it and have some talent.

The question is, does Derek Smart love FS3?


When said developer has to provide future support for his games.  There's not much point asking for bug support, or participating in beta testing, when negative comments are frequently discarded with nothing more than an insult.

We are not professional in the sense of being paid - but we do try and actually give polite support to anyone who comes to the forums with a problem or looking for stuff.

I haven't seen that, in fact, this has to be the most tolerant forums (especially for people with English as a second language) I have ever had the pleasure of being on.

Not with regards to questions or requests for help.  Maybe with regards to proposals to storylines, etc, though.

Sometimes, if peoples english langauge skills are poor in the sense that people can't understand them, then I guess there's criticism - to a degree.

Your experience TopAce. Not the experience of any other person with poor English skills. That should tell you something shouldn't it?

Just quit whining about FS2_Open and you'll find that you have less problems. When you provoke a response it's not due to your lack of language skills.
