If we're playing the speculate game, and we love to do that, don't we?

Then I'd guess that we have indeed been sold and that the rights to the announcement itself and all subsequent decisions and communication relating to Europe now belong to Pro7.

There, now thats speculation done properly!

When there is no information, think of worst case scenario and take it for true. Always expect the worst and you cant be disapointed, only pleased if you were wrong. Im expecting ill have to play on US servers with high ping, refusing to have separate account under pro7.

What negociations?

The partnership between SOE and Pro7 has been signed, that was the point of that topic, so negociations has been over for a while now.

European players (and others if they wanna be nice and help) with twitter, don't forget John Smedley, president of SOE, can be found on it.
And if we want an answer, the best way is still to ask to that one person who knows.

Having signed the intend on a partnership does not end communication about which responsibilities go where.

We've not read the contract, there may well be a lot of things they still have to work out in this partnership.

They didn't sign an intend on a partnership.
They signed the partnership.
No company would sign a partnership if things are still to be worked out.
Hence, negociations are over.

But we still need and want more communication about what has been decided, yes.

HIIIGBBYYYYYY! GET US NEWS!

People are starting to get mad.

Could do with some answers on this now, especially considering the US only beta key release in PCGamer. Is beta going to be held on European servers?

ThGlump · 2012-02-20, 01:04 PM

BUMP

Its been almost a month since Higby promised us more info (soon). How much time can it take to sort it up and provide some info?

We should start petition to ban "soon" from game developers vocabulary since they all are abusing that word.

If you'd remove Soon™ from their vocabulary, they'd have to use something else. Here's some suggestions:

In the near future™, anon™, before you know it™, down the line™, down the road™, momentarily™, any day now™, before long™, betimes™, by and by™, coming down the pike™, directly™, early™, ere long™, expeditiously™, fast™, fleetly™, forthwith™, hastily™, in a little while™, in a number of weeks™, in a short time™, in due time™, in short order™, in time™, instantly™, eventually™, lickety-split™, posthaste™, presently™, promptly™, pronto™, quick™, quickly™, rapidly™, short™, shortly™, speedily™.

Any preferences?

or try using a proxy if it is just IP idk, read through that link a few times i just read it once but didn't look favorable to euro gamers, kind of like how SOE games in Asia are, US can't get to them. but somehow they get to us ;p

seems like that may be why the euros didn't get the invites in the magazine?

So, we say goodbye to our American and Canadian friends :/

This is bad news for UK people, PRO7 is unknown here.

I saw the word 'local' mentioned in that piece. It obviously has gained a different meaning to the one I normally associate it with.

What an utter disgrace.
