i sincerely hope for the sake of everyone on here who has been strung along these 2 years that this actually happens. but i feel like the forward momentum we had going for a while is all but gone, and that people are losing interest. city of titans feels like little more than a memory right now too, all they do is post lore
Please remember that no one is being "strung along," because Team Hail Mary didn't strut around claiming to have CoX back up and running by Day X, or its IP available for leasing by Day Y. It was actually a Facebook poster who leaked that these deals were being attempted, NOT Team Hail Mary (who was caught as unawares as all of us were). Then the Facebook poster threatened to reveal not only the identities of the team, but of the financial backers, as well as everything he knew about the actual deal by Day X if Team Hail Mary didn't come forward and do it.
The version that we got on page 1 of this thread, posted by Hail Mary leader Nate Downes, was actually much less detailed (and rightly so!! ) than what the Facebook guy was threatening to do. However, this is exactly why Nate made the announcement himself-- so the deal wouldn't be blown completely out of the water by the Facebook guy, with the end result being that NCSoft would walk away over private information still in flux and under NDA becoming public news.
So we shouldn't know anything if things had played out correctly. If you're mad, go be mad at the Facebook guy, who has added a lot of constant grief and trolling to this deal forevermore, because of his lack of common sense and attention-seeking behavior.
