Please read i know its lenghty but it contains a good message......
I just recently talking and heard from a fellow dev of The Somme that they are out of money and pretty much dead (unofficially) at the time i release this thread. And with that being dead we are now left to nothing to look forward to on the topic of ww1, verdun is ok but it will never be gritty enough. That being said if you look at there population on there server (all 3) youll find that its actually not bad. Like usually 500+ with their U.S., E.U., and Japan server (not bad for 3 devs)
Idk i was talking to the dev and he said when they talked to you, along with other companies you all said "too risky". This has got me thinking, are companies no longer ready to take a risk every once in awhile anymore. I mean wth are we just going to have a gaming community of nothing but ww2 and "modern" shooters. Will no company have the balls to try something different or will we just going fad into obscurity where these are the only 2 things that FPS titles can be.
Now i came posting this to you guys because i have a great level of respect for you guys, and your work. Therefore, id love to see you guys give this war the respect it deserves. I know that you guys would do it right. And i understand currently you guys are tied up with Killing Floor 2 (which looks great btw, and looking forward to seeing that 3rd zed vid soon hopefully), but ro2/rs is starting to run its course and really will need another fps to fill its void.
Now you could very well just make another ww2 fps sure, and it would prob make some money sure, but really at some point someone has to say "enough is enough, we need to do something new". My question is will you guys be the one to do it. Will you step up to the plate. No doubt that after kf2 comes out that it will make you enough money to do some more work, will you take the risk with that money. Will WW1 ever get the respect it deserves, will no one ever step up and try to change that,will everyone just ignore this bloody war on its 100th anniversary and act like it never happened. After all if u think about it WW2 is just basically WW1 continued, without WW1 there would never be WW2.
Now if somehow i gave you guys a change of heart, or perhaps if you secretly already had a game planned for it, id still have a talk with the devs of THE SOMME as they were seeking to make a gameplay similar to yours and RESISTANCE AND LIBERATION, it was rather cool really.
Now of course it comes to the community. Now community if you would like this idea with similar gameplay to RO2/RS but with the WW1 setting just say "I support" in the comments, if you think that WW1 is irrelevant and we need a 300th WW2 fps title just write "I dont support" in the comments section.
