This is a blatantly false news report, and another reason why you shouldnt believe everything you read on the internet. Can we get a mod to close and lock this thread, thanks.

Actualy its not. Sure it may be blown out of whack. But it not all false they did do a large layoff and people are concerned, So they have a right to discuss that.

Just because you dont want to see or read about a difficult thing dosnt make it not true,

Blatantly false? This has been reported on multiple outlets.

Even being conservative with the number of layoffs, this is not good news for a game that needs a lot of work. There's less people to fix what's broken, plain and simple.

I'm guessing we won't know the truth untill next week when the dust clears. What is clear is that there have been layoffs, people are mad about it, and Trions PR is in overdrive trying to clean up the mess. But i'ts still too soon to get a clear picture.

Doesn't matter if it's not hard to run it.
What matters is how hard it is to make it (the actual patch).

And I really recommend against posting about running something illegally.

I am commenting about a legal patch from Trion and made a point. So I never stated anything about running anything illegal I just said it was possible. Not my fault you had to google it and won't take my word for it.

Unless you know someone affected, we won't know at all, it is really none of our business

So I guess Trion didn't frogmarch the laid-off employees out at gunpoint like IGN said. This is a new low for IGN, in my opinion. Are they a tabloid site now?

when weren't they again???

this is very true. those peoples personel lives are not our concern. the only info i feel we should be privy to, is how the game will be supported and if it will hinder development. Other than that the rest of it is not our concern.

Right, because if we learned anything from say, the boston bombing, it's that all news reports ever are completely accurate >_> how about let Trion explain it, if they even want to, and not believe some crappy third party with "unnamed sources". This thread should be closed down, it will lead to no good

Sorry what? You don't believe the layoffs happened? If you have any evidence to the contrary, I'd love to see your information.

The numbers of layoffs may be up in the air but when numerous outlets are reporting the same story the general story tends to be true, even if the details are muddle.

And Boston bombing? R U F-ing serious.
