ManofManyAliases posted:If they are utilizing LY, and Amazon purchased a full license and right to sub license from CryTek, how is that a competing engine? I read that as UE4, Unity, etc... What definition of "competing" are you using? CIG moved from CryTek to Amazon because they were both competing for the same customer's business and Amazon won the competition. It's literally a text book example of the term. If two supermarkets sell bottles of coke they're still in competition with each other even though they're both selling the exact same product. That's what competition means. I mean gently caress, if CryTek and Amazon had agreed to sign a non compete clause it would prevent Amazon from doing exactly what they did in this case. I seriously struggle to understand what basis you could be using for trying to say that Amazon is not a competitor to CryTek in this situation. CIG are 100% in violation of the non competition clause regardless of the termination of the contract, which is also in dispute since CIG have no obvious way to have terminated it legally, but even if they did the contract is clearly designed to prevent them from continuing development of the game in another engine.

Not-So-Secret Santa Streetroller Giveaway PO Box "That Star Citizen Thread" Beverly Hills, CA 90210 Dear Streetroller, You may not know me, but I'm sure you've heard about me from a manifesto that seems to see the light of day from time to time in this thread. I'm the Stimperor, and it is with a heavy heart (and a few amputated fingers and blood) that I pen this letter to you. You may have preconceived notions of me that may make me look unfavorable to a few people. But don't let those stories of torture, vivisection, liquid skeletons and other atrocities cloud your judgement. I'm actually an okay guy. It isn't easy ruling trillions of people. The reason I'm writing you this letter is to say that the comments horrified me and sickened me in ways I never thought possible. In light of this I might review some of my own procedures of rule and adjust if necessary. If you are ever in the neighborhood of the 4th Stimpire, stop in for a visit and be my guest at a banquet featuring civil meat. Unless you were born on July 14th and then I suggest we remain pen pals. Respectfully yours, The Stimperor, esq

Seriously, like I know the line that separates us from reddit style garbage is thinner than the width of a human hair, but we can do better than memes and reaction gifs and poo poo. Posting Rules posted:Low Content Posts: Please do not make posts containing no content (ie, "first post," "hello, I'm new here," etc.). These just litter up the forums and with over 100,000 registered users, we need to eliminate these as much as possible. If you do not like a thread, then just vote it a "1" and move on; replies consisting solely of trolling fall into this category. As a general rule, write as if you were speaking in real life to another human being. Do not use any catchphrases, memes, internet slang, or any other crap that makes you look like a 12-year old. Our bar for "low content" is low, so incredibly low that it might be underground. Please try and clear it.

PederP posted:I don't have the legal expertise to have an informed opinion on the strength of the case, but I would be very surprised if there is not a massive amount of dirt to be found during discovery. I also suspect CryTek is doing this for more than purely monetary gain. CIG has poached their staff, slagged off their engine, made wild claims of how they've almost rebuilt the entire engine, turned a core marketing investment/partnership into a reputation loss, and the list goes on. Turns out Croberts built the fancy castle walls on a foundation meant for a stable, so all you need to bring them down is get a warlord willing to clip through said walls and giving them a half decent push from the inside peter gabriel posted:It's simple really.

CIG bought a limited license from Crytek. That's my understanding.

Solarin posted:Thanks Chris for helping me better understand a publishers POV when they cancel a project that's in a death spiral This is the ultimate realization I think a lot of people have had. If anything, SC is going to make groups like EA and other publishers look better because gently caress! Look at the kinds of crazy people they need to put up with to actually build a video game! Now I’m sure CR is his own special snow flake, but his game surely isn’t the first that has entered development hell that it simply can’t escape from. This mess should have been canned a few years ago, and most definitely this last December 2016 when the whole Lumberyard junk took place. SC needs to scrap and rebuild, but the money is probably long gone to support that, and backers won’t like it, and I don’t think *deep breath* Chris Roberts could handle the truth.

SomethingJones posted:It's a competing engine because you buy the license from Amazon and not Crytek. Correct. That people are even questioning this amazes me. It's a license, and a license indicates a relationship between two parties, in this case CryTek and CIG. Amazon does not figure into it. CIG jumped ship to Amazon specifically because it was nearly the same engine with a better deal, but I don't think the technicality that some stupid cultists have latched onto (i.e. "It's the same engine so they didn't breach license checkmate goonies") is anything CIG expected to argue, and I still don't think they'll try it. They bet everything that CryTek would dissolve, and they did everything they could to accelerate that event. CIG never intended to honor that contract, like everything else they do. When CryTek pulled a "RISE FROM YOUR GRAVE" CIG was put on the defensive. The only way out for CIG is to use the same tactic they've used on every aspect of this project from its inception: fraud. Expect them to use lots of attempts at Hollywood courtroom tactics that don't actually exist in the real world ("gotcha" moments in the fine print, "getting off on technicalities", a surprise witness has something to say right before the gavel drops, etc.) whose hilarious dismissals will fuel this thread for another year at least.
