People really are kidding themselves if they think this game is not canned

 

100% of the time when a game is rumored to be canceled and its NOT , the developer comes out almost immediately to say its still in production.

 

this has not happened with EITHER of the aliens titles.

Randy talked to Shacknews and said Aliens: CM is NOT canned. And I hope this RPG is still alive too.

no he talked to them before this incident happened , you are talking about months ago when the game was still in production

Sega cannot drag this on for much longer. I surley hope both the RPG and the FPS do not get canned but we will know the actuall answers sooner then later.

not really , if we were supposed to hear something , we would have already

 

All the staff on the gearbox forums have completely dissapeared

 

if you post a thread asking about the cancelation of aliens its immediately locked

 

If anything sega had everyone sign an NDA saying they wont tell anyone the game is canceled

 

so that sega doesnt get negative PR

 

They are just sweeping these games under the rug and the funny thing is outside of the aliens community

 

Nobody will know about it

Well, if this forum disappears, then we know the game is cancelled!

 

Until then, whatever.

Notice how I can belittle your beliefs without calling you names. It's a useful skill to have particularly where you aren't allowed to call people names. It's a mistake to get too drawn in/worked up. I mean it's not life or death, it's just two guys posting their thoughts on a message board. If it were personal or face to face all the usual restraints would be in place, and we would never have reached this place in the first place. Try to remember that.
It might just be on hold, which means there's always the hope it will be released.

 

How many PC games that go to 'on hold' status have you ever seen resurrected? Do not get me wrong I want obsidian to succeed but lets be realistic. This game simply wasn't meant to be, there is other solid projects out there they can now focus on.

Bollock. "Not meant to be".

 

And I take Aliens anytime over some "solid" project that will take another 3 years to make.

I dunno - how often do we ever find out about products being delayed/put on hold anyhow?

I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet? Yet I must - but I cannot! ~ Ro-Man

Dark Sector got made eventually. It was supposed to be an FPS/space sim MMO from the guys who made Unreal Tournament 1, but ended up, 7 years later, as an action game with the glaive from Krull.

Oh Jimmy, you were so funny.

Don't let me down.

From habit he lifts his watch; it shows him its blank face.

Zero hour, Snowman thinks. Time to go.

Correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't STALKER put on hold at some point?

 

 

I don't know if it was ever put formally "on hold". It was delayed about a bazillion times though. I just don't know if work on it was ever actually suspended.

 

DN4 has been on hold for a decade. So really, anything is possible.

Well yeah, but I'd say DN4 is an intetional joke. And STALKER was never on hold, just like CrashGirl said. They encountered lots of problems during development but publisher didn't seem to cut them from the project.

BTW

 

I would love to be wrong about what im saying , but looking at the facts that we have ( devs leaving and posting that a game is canned right when the rumor starts )

 

are pointing to the fact that the game is in fact

 

canned

Sega is ****ing tired and lame
they are a garbage dev house
Aliens colonial marines is confirmed canned
solidify the fact that the game is canned and the reason nobody is allowed to talk about it is because sega has not written its bullsh!t
for all the people that think this game is still in production

 

its not

yes , for all intensive purposes this never had to happen and the people denying it are retarded.
People really are kidding themselves if they think this game is not canned
when all the info in the world is pointing directly at the games cancellation
canned

 

Guys, if I didn't know any better, I think guiltyspark is trying to tell us something.

 

edit: I also think someone kicked him in the balls. I sympathise. It's not very nice when that happens to you.

who the hell is him?

Ever read blues news, beta news or ign at all? Fairly regular basis if you follow any of those sites. Its VERY rare to see a project come back to life after the team is dismantled as this one has been.

No, no and rarely.

 

I'm totally out of the production loop for the most part, so that's why I asked.

Well it's a good thing you know better. He's obviously not trying to crush the hopes of everyone here. That would be very mean.

Hey now, my mother is huge and don't you forget it. The drunk can't even get off the couch to make herself a vodka drenched sandwich. Octopus suck.
