So you don't get why people who are investors and funding development of a game, might be a bit unhappy that this game is suddenly going the DRM route?

Maybe you don't get how Kickstarter works? Kickstarter pledges are investments, not purchases, rewards are REWARDS, not purchases. The pledgers likely pledged to make a DRM FREE game happen. Not just for themselves! That's what funding investment *means*.

Even if the devs are not to blame for what MS dictates... people are obviously going to be unhappy

Let's just hope that no other Kickstarter Project will pull a stunt like this.

I understand you eRe4s3r. I personally do not think Steam is a big deal for DRM, I prefer all my games to be on Steam, but you are correct that the backers invested in a game made a pledge for a game that was promoted as being DRM-free FOR ALL and not just for backers (as rewards). It is poor that the MS agreement was kept hush.

So yes they lied. Those backers who backed this game to promote a DRM-free society... well, they really should be able to get a refund, this would send an even stronger (NO DRM!) message I would think.

You should probably send a clear message to Harebrained Schemes to voice your concerns at the least.

I doubt they will, regardless of what they told anyone.

Yup... more than likely the case. Just like how they are being knobs and hanging on to the Space Quest licence and doing nothing with it... and sending out cease and desists.

It's not very good. I just tried it out... besides me not being impressed by the UI and actual gameplay itself, I broke the game in 5 minutes, so much for the BETA testing Ho hum.

You're rude and unprofessional

Derek is a talentless ass clown who couldn't find his ass if his hands were crazy glued to his butt cheeks

You're pathetic Blue. You're one of those shit eating flies

I see what you did there.

Non-intentional or otherwise.

(begging the question who is responsible for the release "cut" of the game)

I would call the release cut the "Publishers Cut".

I'm a huge Trackmania fan, and I think this is good news. More money, more chance of getting their game on to shelves, more access to different regions.

And I would love to see this game on 360 or the like, Trackmania 2 I am sure is headed there. The game is very much suited to consoles (although I am a keyboard driver ). It's an arcade racer!

Oh no mister 142 posts, we'll sure miss your input.

I'm glad that my meager 142 posts had that much of an impact on you!


Seriously though, I am sure Blue can handle the criticism.

The IGN article made it fairly clear (at least to me) that this game runs on the Source engine, not the original Counter-Strike engine aka the Half-Life 1 engine.

yeah, the screenshots are a bit of give away...

Blue, many of your articles have been very poor of late, it's getting worse, way too many mis-leading and error ridden articles for my taste. I have started transitioning elsewhere for my daily gaming news update.
