Jason Sextro posted:I remember this too - there was talk about open-sourcing their libraries so that the rest of the world could have the performance issues and GPU melting of Star Citizen Note to the Skadden paralegal reading this thread... “The Mission” posted:Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to try and track down the aforementioned public (possibly mythic) declaration by the defendant’s founder and chief executive. This won’t be easy, as the man in question has himself muttered, stammered, and rambled more words aloud than are housed in the printed library of Congress.

big nipples big life posted:Skadden's researchers could probably make a 30 minute montage of CIG people talking about "developing 2 AAA games" I'd put money on them having already done it, then wait for the opportunity to use it. CIG/RSI trying to purge naughty information would just make it even worse at this point.

happyhippy posted:Leonard French isn't that bad. Non-practising lawyers from 3rd rate universities talking about areas of the law who aren't their specialties are one-step up from random people relying on wikipedia for their answers. I spent 6 years of my publishing career dealing with copyright, and kept running into lawyers who didn't specialise in it who knew gently caress and all about it, especially international complications. French is just a.n.other internet lawyer who happens to have a degree but is more interested in his hits on youtube than the actual subject he's bloviating about.

CIG will settle if discovery is granted. Or that's what I would counsel my client if I had a law thinger and was good at my job. But Chris probably too dumb to follow counsel

It can't still be in the game, right? They wouldn't flat out lie to a judge, would they? (of course they would, they are Fuuuuuuuuuuuuucked)

TheAgent posted:not only settle, but settle and remove every and all aspect of cryengine code from their game, including improvements or forks from the original code that is the killer. But what they could do is prolong things all the way till the end and the angels will sing their praises all the way to shut off dark out of the serves. And still blame DS for all of it. Go all the way to judgement - get that and go to appeals and just keep playing the game.

Colostomy Bag posted:With the most respect to you given your profession, how would you approach jury selection on this one? A juror will have all the law bits spelled out in detail and if there is confusion the judge can explain it again in smaller words. So the trick really is making sure they think of the facts along the same lines as the plaintiffs.

kw0134 posted:Honestly I have no idea; jury selection consultants are a Big Thing now and presumably there's some secret sauce for which Skadden will pay (or, rather, will pass the bill along to Crytek) beaucoup bucks to zero in on the people who will feel special empathy to creators who were ripped off by an avaricious thumb man and assess huge penalties on that bastard. And hence where I was getting at. If it comes to that point of a jury trial obviously the jury is going to "pile it on" for damages just because how both sides choose them. And like you said, the jury instructions will be quite simplified and simplified further.
