    No word yet. "It" is trying to ship a game.

    Now you've done it, Randy...you've gone and answered a question...now they're gonna expect that from now on. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]

    "trying" implys difficulty. "A" implys "one" which in turn implys this is not a large company putting out many games at once. Hmmm.

    Um...let's not overinterpret Randy's words... overanalyzing individual words out of context can start dangerous rumors.

    I have my own guess as to who this "Entity" is (based on a certain company's financial position, and other stuff), but it's just a guess, so I might as well keep it to myself.

    Just to be clear about who the "Entity" is…

    Aardvark, until further notice.

    Nice save, Randy. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]

    interesting....would have been nice if that company was Particle Systems...who is finishing IW2 now...but then again....they most likely don't want a competition...
    Would have been even better if it was Origin....I miss Wing Commander....
    Or maybe Volition...they need something else than Freespace..a new story to tell....I think, and theyre finishing a game now..Red Faction or something..

    "Babylon 5 was the last of the Babylon stations. There would never be another. It changed the future .. and it changed us. It taught us that we have to create the future .. or others will do it for us. It showed us that we have care for one another, because if we don't, who will? And that true strength sometimes comes from the most unlikely places. Mostly, though, I think it gave us hope .. that there can always be new beginnings .. even for people like us."

    give the vorlons a break...

    he's allready let one Aardvark out of the containment unit.. we now know its a games pubisher or someone directly associated with games.... so atleast we know the sector.... of course there are a couple gazillion systems in that sector but hey....

    info is info.. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img]
  • RhettRhett (Not even a monkey)
    Yes, but to me it sounds like "the entity" is only producing one game at the moment, meaning it can't be massive publishers (aka Microsoft, EA)
  • samuelksamuelk The Unstoppable Mr. 'K'
    I think you guys need to stop while you're behind before you think yourselves into a whole or scare away the "entity".
  • RandyRandy Master Storyteller
    Can you imagine what it would be like if several games were all in crunch mode at the same time at the same studio? Unfortunately, I've been there. It's not a pretty sight. Much smarter to stagger production.

    Impish grin right back at you. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/tongue.gif[/img]

    It's a fine line, Sam. If we had 'no' interest, the [i] Entity [/i] would probably be MORE worried than us having a lot of interest. Remember, Randy wants this board as a front to show a group of people dying to get this excellent computer game. We must show interest [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]

    I just hope that they have some spare time soon for Randy and Co. to do their [b] stuff [/b]
