Wow.

What are you hoping the volunteer moderators of this forum, who do not work for IG, PD or T2, will keep you informed about?

Hmm, I didn't have any particular issues with my 6800XT. Apart from those black glitchy artefacts on the clouds at one point. Performance wasn't bad though, compared to what everyone else was getting anyway.

What do you mean about them cutting their losses? CS2 is still under active development as far as I know, they're very much working on making the game work.

In "q4 2024 prepared remarks" there's some potentially relevant comments, which I can't easily copy on my phone. But on page 4 Karl Slatoff mentions their recent cost reduction program, through which they cancelled several titles. I guess they cancel titles every year, but I'm not sure we'd heard about the "recent" cost reduction program.

I see KSP2 listed in the document "investor presentation - may 2024" on page 19. Still looking through the other documents.

That's caught me out sometimes, but there have definitely been times when I couldn't deploy the parachute and I definitely wasn't time-warping.

From what I heard in interviews, they had about 50 people in the whole of IG. Not developers, people. Including admin, HR, accounts, etc. The number of developers was possibly less than 20, from what Nate said to ShadowZone in an interview in 2023.

I mean, I can easily imagine a standard contract in this situation stating ST were obliged to hand over the work they'd done or get sued into oblivion, but I don't work in the industry so I'm asking people who actually know.

Yes IG were initially a subset of the people who worked at ST, doesn't mean the code actually got transferred from ST to IG, which were different companies.

I've always wondered if any of the code actually made it across from ST to IG. There was no official transfer of the project from what I understand, PD just told ST they're not doing the project anymore and started head-hunting their staff while ST went bankrupt. Would PD have legally owned the work that was done? I'm guessing the contract would almost certainly have specified they did. But at that point PD basically tore up the contract. Is there any chance the work just got deleted by ST rather than handed over to the very people screwing them over?

Matt Lowne mentions it at some point in the video just above.

His wording was more like "I'm very much looking forward to talking when I can", quoted from memory. Reading between the lines, maybe he's saying he has good news to share?

This is kinda interesting: https://old.reddit.com/r/KerbalSpaceProgram/comments/1chgbzl/2024_take_2_layoffs_megathread/l23nani/?context=3 Seems like Dean Hall was talking to someone who he realised was a KSP2 developer (or worked at IG), and after saying so the person deleted their posts.
