The REAL reason why Scott and George aren't posting

That Guy · 06-19-2009, 12:32 PM

It's been stated that Scott and George haven't posted anything because of the pending litigation. That's crap. Sure, it would unwise to go into any details, but there's no reason at all either or both couldn't simply take 5 minutes to say "Here's where we are, here's where we'd like to go."

But the haven't done that. Why?

Answer: They could not care less about what ANYONE here thinks. When they had a chance at a viable product, they tolerated this forum for good will. Now they know DNF is dead, and because of that, they have no use for this forum at all.

Jiminator · 06-19-2009, 12:37 PM

they don't post here because when you argue with morons it becomes hard to tell who is the bigger moron...

Hey, thanks for clearing that up.

Drazula · 06-19-2009, 01:05 PM

If that was the case they would simply close the forums. Try again....

No! You lie! LIAR! NOOOOO!

Y'know, there's an approximate 1 to 6,792,467,725 chance that you are not George or Scott, and therefore, you're not entitled to comment on why they aren't posting.

Damn. You've found them out. I guess there's no fooling YOU, huh?

The Count · 06-19-2009, 01:59 PM

Actually, I can think of only two occasions in the last couple of years when GB cared to post here at all:

when he had something to sell - Prey and Duke on XBLA

Evil Angel · 06-19-2009, 02:42 PM

3DR's reputation as a game developer is in the shitter, they have blown $20 million and have nothing to show for it, they are being sued for probably more money than they have, the game they supposedly loved and poured their hearts into for the last 12 years looks like it will never see the light of day.

Quite frankly if that were me, my company, my reputation, my money posting here would be the last thing on my mind because I wouldn't be sleeping and would be breaking my balls to try and dig my way out of this mess.

Wheres George? Playing poker in Vegas. Do you really think he gives a flying f**k about this forum or any of us?

unforgiven · 06-19-2009, 02:46 PM

I don't know about Scott but George is Busy ( with Gambling

).

If you are looking for George to post, you need to go to shacknews. He never posts here anymore, especially with late-breaking news. It all goes over there.

SpamViking · 06-19-2009, 08:12 PM

Maybe I'm missing something here.....but if DNF is indeed officially dead, why is the DNF forum still open?

As far as I know, 3D Realms has not confirmed DNF's status as "dead".

George Broussard · 06-19-2009, 08:49 PM

That Guy,

You're wrong in your assumption about us caring. There's nothing much we can say at the moment, so I do apologize for that.

Monkey Butler · 06-19-2009, 10:04 PM

I believe an owned is in order.

I was about to reply to this thread to say something along these lines but I guess it isn't necessary now since it came right from the source

.

Babe · 06-20-2009, 02:34 AM

Wow I never expected an answer from George himself in this forum ! I wished though he would have said something about the future of DNF, the game that we all want to come out, including T2 !

Well, thanks for at least acknowledging all of us here on the edge of our seats by making an appearance. If the legal circumstances don't allow for anything more than your given response at the moment, then so be it...but, if you just mean that you don't really have any better idea than any of us about what the future holds it would be nice to know a little more about why that is and what sort of possibilities there may be moving forward. Nonetheless, thanks for showing your face.

This is probably close to the truth. If it were any of us, I don't think we'd be anxious to face the firing squad that this forum (or any other gaming forum) has become.

Ultimately, I think we're pretty low on his list of priorities. That's as it should be. I don't have any problem with GB going on (what I understand is) his annual trip to Vegas. Not going changes what?

unforgiven · 06-20-2009, 08:09 AM

I'm ashamed of myself

He is wrong in his assumption about you caring or about you [not] caring?
Which one is it?
As it can be seen the post was edited and the [not] deleted from it.
So what is the message?
Should people stop assuming that you care or should people stop assuming that you do not care?

peoplessi · 06-20-2009, 11:41 AM

It's not that obscure to get the point, it was an answer to the first post. Don't be an ass, really, you try too hard.

WoodenSword · 06-20-2009, 11:53 AM

Of course they care...

The REAL reason why Scott and George aren't posting imo is that they simply don't know what to do with DNF and the lawsuit yet

To back him up, also there can be LEGAL ramifications that may bind both George and Scott from speaking on the law suit itself. We can view the public stuff, but other things may be involved that cannot be divluged to the public at this time. That's my theory.

OH SHIT! Is that George's first reply on the forums since the shutdown?

George: Can you at least tell us when you'll be able to release some info on the status of the litigation between the company and T2, DNF and what you have in mind or iare you going to give us a WWC (When We Can) answer?

Xefaros · 06-21-2009, 01:35 PM
