Agreed, but it's not a pizza lunch, it's a sit-down dinner. That's why CIG was trying to hire someone with fine dining experience to be a whale tender for them: this is the kind of thing you set up steam tables for. You know, a classy event.

It's gonna be rubber chicken and overcooked vegetables, with a giant Star Citizen sheet cake for dessert. If CIG's feeling spendy, they might even offer a choice between the chicken or a well-done 5oz steak, and maybe some garlic mashed potatoes instead of the steamed carrot/broccoli/cauliflower medley. It depends on what the low-bid caterer offers as its most economical menu option.

Dollar menu hamburgers, delivered in a large paper bag with a greasy bottom, unceremoniously dumped on a conference table. Chris makes an appearance but never takes off his sun glasses.

No. The agreement was that as long as CryEngine was used being licensed and used in the production of a game by RSI/CIG, then they will receive royalties. If I have an exclusive agreement with Tesla to license my lithium refinery techniques in battery production and will receive a royalty on every battery sold, but then Tesla switches to another vendor and terminates the agreement with me in accordance with some termination clause of our contract, then would I continue to receive royalties for every battery sold after that if Tesla is utilizing the refining technique of that other vendor?

I appreciate your answer. The actual GLA has not been released yet, correct? It will be interesting to see what sort of termination clauses are included and how it will play out. I would hazard a guess that if Crytek had obviously acted in a manner to breach the contract that Skadden would not take the case, or would have at least advised them of their situation.

Yeah, nice meltdown Erris. Also I hate to be the one to break it to you, but Derek actually has sources. I know that hurts to know. But it's true. More than once he has been vindicated on that subject and your tempertantrum is not becoming from someone that has been posting here for any length of time.

Such a clause would be the highlight of the RSI/CIG answer. But since they're dragging their heels, my guess is one doesn't exist. Skadden aren't stupid. They have this poo poo locked down.

According to the lawsuit, Nov 2012 is when the GLA was signed.

Royalties are in perpetuity. No cap. No time limits. That's how it's always been.

I appreciate your answer as well. I look forward to seeing how this unfolds. Either way, it is going to be interesting! And I am calling that.
