Mangoose posted:Would Crytek even take a $10 million settlement at this point? I know gently caress-all about law or how all this would fly in court, but my biased and worthless opinion is that Crytek + Skadden are just running circles around CIG. Crytek's standard licensing terms at the time appear to be 20% royalties so if they'd not signed the GLA and instead just got a standard license they'd have been liable to pay $35 million dollars in royalties so loving lol $10 million would be a miracle.

Bayonnefrog posted:Yup. You settle at that point. They want to keep as much of that out of the public as possible. That would be bitterly disappointing.

Bayonnefrog posted:Yes. But think about their side. When you start talking about punitive damages, supuenas, and we start getting into the $$$ wasted on cars, trips, etc etc. They still want to make a game ( I guess...$177 mil and still nothing) Who knows where it could lead. Essentially the trial is taking place right now with these motions and responses. I'd be absolutely fascinated as to what Crytek would accept in settlement. It seems like CIG would have to liquidate to even meet their settlement demands - and frankly why should Crytek go easy on them given that they've raked in 170 million and wasted it all on stupid crap.

AngusPodgorny posted:We haven't seen Crytek's damage model yet, but it's an interesting question. CIG signed the GLA in order to get a more favourable licensing deal than they would have got otherwise, yeah? I know very little about this sort of thing, but it seems fair to me that the damages for violating the GLA should be relative to the amount that they avoided paying in royalties by signing it. You can't turn the clock back, you can't "re-exclusive" the game to cryengine and so fourth. If the only reason Crytek were willing to waive their usual royalty payments was for exclusivity, wouldn't re-imposing the usual royalty payments be a reasonable remedy for violation of the contract?

AngusPodgorny posted:You need something like fraud to get into the really good remedies like disgorgement (CIG having to give back all their ill-gotten profits). It's possible Skadden will bring out the nuclear option at some point, but they haven't yet. But the game has barely started. But how could they put back the exclusivity clause, or the other violations such as the disclosure of source code? Would they argue for a particular monetary value attached to these clauses and claim it as damages?

Really though if that place has 240 employees in it then pretty much every car would need to contain 4 people.

Do they have too many artists sitting around without enough to do? The core technologies aren't getting finished fast enough so they're having to give them pointless crap like this? How can this game be so behind schedule but still have time being burnt on such meaningless frills?

Hav posted:It’s normal to attempt to swing the court to a more favourable position by argument. Sure, but the situation here is that CIG filed a motion saying "but we don't want to have to do discovery yet" and the court response was "you already don't have to do discovery yet so go away". It doesn't seem to have changed the position, it just seems to have shown that CIG's lawyers don't know how discovery works.
