As per the title.

Sorry to see you go mate but yea, I did get the impression that your heart was in the North West rather than in SoCal.

It's a shame because you and Maggie were the two who I was certain understood PS1, in a good way.

Best wishes from me and good luck.

It's not a good sign about PS2 now is it, well that's for another thread.

Take care Malorn hope you enjoy where ever it is you're moving too, thanks for fixing the Carv before you left :)
TR4Life!

Please link the original source (http://www.reddit.com/r/Planetside/comments/2if1nv/thank_you_ps2_community/) when making posts like this. :)

Malorn was a solid add to the team, sad to see him move on but understand his reasons. He helped to make quite a few changes while he was around and he was a blast to talk to in person about the game and anything else.

He will be missed! But i have no doubt he will still be playing :)

Bummer for PS2. Malorn really cared about the franchise and the players. Thanks for that, eh? :) And thanks for moving Seabed Listening Post to where I suggested. It was pretty awesome to see a suggestion taken into consideration and put into action like that. Also, thanks for buffing the Carv. I had put it down in favor of the Rhino, but I loved it in beta with the Enclave.

Best wishes to you, Malorn.

Ps. I wonder if he'll be going back to Microsoft. They could use someone with sense to work on the freakin hideous UI of Windows 10...

Why are so many people leaving? Just from my perspective I'm afraid the game is dying. That's not me just hating on it, as I've watched it grow, and although I do personally feel development is sluggish and underwhelming at times, this isn't a game I want to see die. But these forums are dead, and the developers are leaving?!?

I think it's easy to think this way and I know SOE anticipates such a response but people leaving shouldn't be a surprise.

People leave and join because of their own life situations. I've managed multi-year projects before and staff movements are common and don't necessarily have anything to say about the status of the project.

In maggie's case, she'd obviously got into the streaming, broadcast and public aspect of gaming and moving to curse network was obviously a good career move for her.

For TRay, he did a great job on PS2 but the art style is set, he did it and it's probably a good time for him to move to a new project.

As for Malorn, I follow him on twitter, read what he writes and I can fully understand his reasons and good luck to him.

I reckon the people who have come in that I am aware of are good people judging by everything I've read from them so I don't see all of this as anything major, just something that happens after a period of time has elapsed.

First T-Ray. Then the Striker emasculation. Now this.

/head in hands

I do not have a good feeling about where my favorite franchise is headed. At all.

I hate to see him go.
