remembering my pass to this place was a bitch.. especially only having 5 tries.
Anyways... 1st off, thanks to Doc Flabby for splitting discussion on this.
2nd... I do not in anyway affiliate with the council. There are members there who'd rather turn everything into a big political battle rather than get things done. Not all, but many. That is why a small group of us function along side of it, and we're the ones who decided to e-mail them and what to ask of them. Before the e-mail was even sent though, it was already decided what their reply would most likely be depending on which stance we felt they'd take. Sadly, the stance they took was the one we had not hoped for. Though, this is only 1 set of e-mails, and MTN, Ghost Ship, and myself have yet to sit down and discuss what to reply back with yet.
3rd... Its legit... I deleted a lot of his contact stuff outta there, (IE: telephone, fax, etc.) and the fact the e-mail I sent it to was a rapidshare.com e-mail, and the guy is the ceo, and his staff has been in YOUR zone talking to some of YOUR staff. So all in all, we took this as being pretty legit. I spent 3hrs researching the guy before even beginning to type the e-mail.
4th... BDE owns SubSpace. Continuum is a clone of such game using SubSpace graphics. Though, as the original license from subspace said, we could use and modify such graphics as we wished as long as no profit was made. So as long as we don't do that, really BDE can't touch us, even if they wanted to.
5th... Continuum source will NEVER be sold or released. Sadly to them, we couldn't do more than just hand over what we have and our zones. Not happening anyways, but eh. Skype and KaZaA are funnily enough, BASED a lot on our lovely game. Amongst the protocol, packing priit uses, etc. He releases continuum source, we got all of that. Continuum is as much important to him as his billion dollar baby.
6th... Continuum .39 was finished, yes FINISHED, for 2yrs before Priit finally sent ghost the beta for me to distribute and do player testing on. Then after we found some issues with subgame not recognizing differences between different .39 versions, we asked him to change it to .40. So hence, Continuum .40. But amongst that point, Priit no longer takes time for this game like he use to, beyond activating some stuff on the biller he coded in ages ago. So really, I doubt he has paid much if any attention to these guys.
And the list continues... but I'll stop there for now. Many of you messaged me asking about this, and I hope this answers some of your questions.
