The Aziz

Cities 2 City over 70k and still growing.

I could bring up the statements but you aren't gonna believe them anyway so what's the point ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

-studio will be closed -a number of people are laid off -work continues in some way under PD.

The chaos is caused by rumors alone. The official data is clear.

SZ video not on weekend? The world must be on fire ..it kinda is though Anyway, yeah, yep, it's pretty much what I've been saying the entire time aaaand most of the people here ain't gonna believe that anyway. It's too sensible.

Shh, don't tell them

Then why people keep asking for more statements?

"We're still hard at work on KSP2" "The label continues to make updates to Kerbal Space Program 2" Updates and work sound to me like development. The studio closes in 60 days, and while some contracts end at the same time, we don't know if others have been renegotiated.

Devs: we're still working on the game, can't tell more atm Community: are you though? D: we've told you already C: yea but we don't believe you, say it again.

Well, we know that two or three devs (not including community team who, while essential, wasn't doing the developing thing) were laid off. Nate's Linkedin suggests he now works directly for PD, not IG. The studio may be coming to a close but there's no reason to say that all of the people were left without jobs. Some, yeah, probably. The other some could be merged into PD and continue work. I don't think we're gonna get a leek from anyone from the active team members here about the current status of their work colleagues. Best we can do is find the employee number of T2, extract 5% of it, divide between the number of recently closed studios and get the approximate number which can be completely inaccurate anyway.

And? Official statements there and from PD are complete opposites.

I know what it is, I signed one a few times. Though, with typical gamedev salaries, would I want to take another job in the same field if I was already working full time? Probably not.

Empathy not detected

Must be a (yet another) weird American thing.

Got a source on that?

Probably not. Though it was mostly because of performance issues and a payload of bugs that came with it, not lack of content, that I was fine with. I'm now at 170h in, I'd say half of it happened after FS, so I played it quite a lot, and enjoyed most of it. But would I recommend the game to anyone in its current state? Probably not. But I would also not say "don't buy it, avoid like fire" because it's not a crumbled ball of misery.

Didn't know they're taking away something you already have. What's that?

Pick any of the T2 execs.

I find it funnier that the people who do that aren't moving on themselves There are no other sources of information. Everyone takes it from the same places, and there's barely any room for interpretation a clear message. But media create their clickbaity articles based on those sources, and emotional people scream and shout based on those articles. The end result is similar to a game of chinese whispers.

As far as I'm concerned, T2 doesn't even have a twitter account. The biggest entity we could rely to get the info from on that site is PD.

You can check the old footage from 2019-2020, and extrapolate from that. What we know for sure was that a chunk of the team decided to continue with the project so I'd say that they took some of their work with them to IG. But that's a guess based only on pictures and videos of the game from back then. Nobody can tell what happened to the code part of it.

You just got baited, did you check if that's an official account?

Progression through the roadmap would've been faster if they didn't have to deal with countless bugs. Without them we would be now on our way to interstellar. If they speedran through the roadmap we would have a game with lots of content, new and old, that doesn't work properly.
