So, I was just wondering...
Yeah, I was just wondering, I remember Thyth saying he needed more people who know what they're doing, so why not contact some of the garage games staff? considering what happened with T1 when they were asked for help then, surely some of them at least, may/want to be able to help us, which in turn, could push updates out faster, I just wanted to know peoples takes on this, and wether or not we should give it a go, if this gets good response here, I'll post this in the TN thread and see what the others have to say.

What?
Make the calls.
Pull the strings.
not entirely sure, activision blizzard is a must to avoid, considering... ill look into that though
Sierra is part of a four company merger of activision, blizzard, sierra, and vivendi universal, so considering they thought they shut t2 down, dont suggest them, i dont think they'll be willing to co-operate considering what happened last time we tried talking some sense into them... i mean, they wanted us to buy their broken coded, unrelyable... piece of shit of a master server for crying out loud...
sorry, but they do sorta piss me off at how they decided to coldly murder their own history, as if they were trying to shun away what they once were when they know that that's what made them. ...
Dynamix was a side branch of sierra, how else would they get the dev funding? anywho, yes, theres no point in that. thanks num.
GG made that branch, its an extension of themselves which is rapidly growing popular with hits, this is why i suggested it, theres bound to be empire legions fans who want to know where their game came from/is related to. simply put, theres never been a better time, youtube knows of tnxt, so i wanted to figure out how we could branch further.

(finding them shouldn't be too difficult)
The game is dying. We may get the crowd on goon haven, maybe the couple of people who suddenly cross tribes next and say "oh! I haven't played that in ages!" and install for the heck of it, But maybe vivendi dropped it because all the same people were playing and nobody was buying T2 any more, perhaps they weren't getting enough money out of it.
Well, that's what I think.
If you still want to contact them, make it clear that you do not represent the TN project.
Someone made a guide to making games that stated exactly that. "Murder your babies while they're young" or something stupid like that.
Anyway, I would give this a try.
its merely a brainstorm, but if they agree, would you take them on?
The remaining work in the project is just grunt stuff. Design is done and it's held up to my expectations. So, I don't need senior developers; any reasonably good code monkey would be fine.
There are some UE's they might be able to patch up and stuff, since they know that game inside and out, that could be at least one good use having them onboard... Though you do too, but its just nice to have people with the same sort of coding skill, it takes the some of the workload of and makes things... Well... Happen faster I guess. I will respect this but I might give them a bell and see what they say, fair enough?
Noted.
