Dynamix' Dave Meddish updated
his
.plan, addressing some of the rumors that have been floating around about
the company, and their two games in development, Starsiege: TRIBES 2 and TRIBES
Extreme, as well as the shocking truth that he is not in fact "shacking
up" with Jeri Ryan. Here's what he had to say:
In lieu of the recent
events here in sunny (for now) Eugene, OR, I thought I'd take a moment to clear
up some potential misconceptions and quash those nasty rumors floating around.
"TRIBES 2 will be cancelled."
No, we're still on track for a Q1 2000 release. There is discussion of a possible
TRIBES 3. And TRIBES Extreme is chugging along nicely, so be sure to put that
in your letters to Santa.
In fact, ol' dBack has almost finished something like a gajillion missions for
TX (well, it sure seems like a gajillion...I'm starting to see the Terrain Editor
in my sleep). For those itching for new missions to play, TX oughta be your
bag.
"Sierra is closing Dynamix down and moving it lock, stock and barrel to
Seattle."
As far as I know, we're not going anywhere. Say what you will about Eugene,
but it is cheaper than the other Emerald City (although far-more hippie-infested).
"Dave is shacking up with Jeri Ryan from Star Trek: Voyager."
Sadly,
this rumor is untrue as well.
"Dynamix was eaten by a 60-foot radioactive squirrel."
This, believe it or not, is true! We got pictures to prove it! (http://tribesforum.sierra.com/tubb/Forum1/HTML/004993.html)!
Oh, the humanity!
And if Blake comes near me with a vacuum, I'm gonna break out the whuppin'
stick...the things I gotta put up with, I swear...
