Game Development: Salem & Haven

[craigh1993]

The joke was the bit where jorb said he was trolling. The truth was the bit about a misunderstanding between paradoxian overlords (i presume)...

Aye.

Add more content prior to Beta or you'll have 500 screaming forum nerds flying to Sweden to disembowel you. I fully expect this. Truthies!

I keep seeing you drop hints about Salem Pain and i'm not sure if you just don't like it because it's not your cup of tea, or if it is actually as bad as you make out? I'm curious..

When salem first came out to the alphas it was essentially a terrain engine. I don't blame him if he started hating it at that stage really (At least I think he was an alpha tester).

i hate to say this, but salem sounds cool and all but i want jorb and loftar to come back and fix the current bugs that are going on. I'm sure that terrain engine is cool and all where you could build on mesas and stuff but there is some serious game inhibitting things that are going on here. I'll be honest, i know they want to make money with something they love- but is now the right time for it?

considering they have run HnH for free for almost 4 years, yeah.

Hm. Hobby with no income, or income from doing pretty much what their hobby was? Tough choice

*sigh* okay, how are they making money and why didn't they do it with hnh?

[bmjclark]

They're working for paradox for salem. I don't think they wanted to work with anyone when it came to haven

i guess that's a good enough point, i must be butt flustered that they just decided to put there full focus on salem instead of going between the two. Meh, i'm not too happy about the current circumstances but i'll have to get over it.

anyways, jorbtar stated hnh will never be abandonware, its their baby afterall.
