Fuck this developer.

[QUOTE=Zillamaster55;46697216]....wait a minute ...where have I seen this before[/QUOTE] Pretty sure this is someones fursona

[QUOTE=Korova;46697351]The screws are a coincidence.

This fucking crew holy shit. [t]http://i.cubeupload.com/Po7J4o.png[/t] They all reek desperation. [quote]Was once seen near a game developer and still vaguely smells of one. Is an excellent ideas guy and owns both a garage and running car. Will bring visceral likeness of wheelymobiles that will completely blow Gran Turismo out of the water.[/quote]

[QUOTE=Elspin;46698428]Oh my god the pictures in the backing page [img]https://worldwidefunder.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/wwf-project%2F00%2F00%2F00%2F03%2F25%2F548a117fc31f8%2Fpeople_tablet_sta_Mishail.png[/img][/QUOTE] Michail was one of the older game designers. He coded as a developer for a thousand years in a secret studio in the Ukraine, where those who went to develop with him never returned alive.

[QUOTE=Rusty100;46697272]so they say, i guess. but i swear that rubble and foliage is source stock[/QUOTE] I agree. The textures, displacements and even the little billboard grass is almost definitely source.

Lmao this is going to be absolute shit. Heed this no attention as it's nothing to the STALKER name.

[QUOTE=FLIPPY;46697253]Those animations, they look so robotic. They better not botch S.T.A.L.K.E.R..[/QUOTE] even this crazy russian clear sky mod looks better :v: [video=youtube;k51skJUVj5s]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k51skJUVj5s[/video]

The video they released went private and both comments and likes / dislikes went away [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6rW0NHXFrWI[/url] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/diVpnPb.jpg[/IMG] Hell the guy is even wearing official merch

[quote]Q. Do you have the rights to use the STALKER name? A. We have registered a trademark for Stalker Apocalypse, and have every right to use it as our title. Stalker by itself is a common word, and anyone can use it.[/quote] [img]https://worldwidefunder.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/wwf-project%2F00%2F00%2F00%2F03%2F25%2F548993a950d98%2Fstalker2log%D0%93%CC%8117.png[/img] I'm sorry but you just spelled S.T.A.L.K.E.R with your fucking logo. Even though I despise Sergiy Grygorovych (the guy who owns GSC Game World) this is a breach of his copyright and trademark so he should sue the everliving shit out of these assholes. It's clear that no one on that dev team ever really worked with GSC (I think one did for a brief while?) so the fact that they're claiming they have ex-STALKER devs is a complete farce of a statement.

[QUOTE=download;46697240]To be frank I just want to see a well made ARMA 3 mod that is Stalker-like and allows me to complete Stalker-like missions in a Stalker-like world with friends.[/QUOTE] I thought the same as you, and I even got some of my own gameplay footage [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=krS-nM94AIE[/media] Fuck that shit [sp]Bloodsuckers[/sp]

[QUOTE=TheTalon;46702677]I thought the same as you, and I even got some of my own gameplay footage [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=krS-nM94AIE[/media] Fuck that shit [sp]Bloodsuckers[/sp][/QUOTE] what in the fuck was that?? why does it say arma, is it a mod?

[QUOTE=Chrisordie;46697257]Looks like some Deviant Art nuts OC.[/QUOTE] Looks like sonic became a bear wolf thing

suck it up and face it we'll never get a game as good as SHoC / CoP ever again at least it will live on through mods

let the zone claim itself jesus christ it wont ever be good w/out gsc

the fact that GSC are emailing back arouses my curiosity at least

[QUOTE=gudman;46698601]No way this is [B]real[/B] [/QUOTE] No, It's areal

[QUOTE=geogzm;46702981]the fact that GSC are emailing back arouses my curiosity at least[/QUOTE] Weirdly enough, they're not dead somehow and still working on stuff, they even released a patch for all stalker games earlier this year.

[QUOTE=Elspin;46702759]what in the fuck was that?? why does it say arma, is it a mod?[/QUOTE] The Namalsk map for DayZ has bloodsuckers on it, ported over from Stalker, but they've likely added it to a bunch of other DayZ mods since Namalsk.

i was curious so i went searching, i can't seem to find the trademark they claim to own on uspto.gov although warner bros did file a Stalker trademark for a tv series [url]http://tsdr.uspto.gov/#caseNumber=86270692&caseType=SERIAL_NO&searchType=statusSearch[/url] doesn't really matter at this point but just more shit to the pile i guess

[QUOTE=Monkah;46706653][img]http://gyazo.com/f9e71b7f31f31c6543409c75a32d2ca4.png[/img][/QUOTE] Doesn't matter if they don't reach the goal. They get to keep all the money.

[QUOTE=Korova;46697254]Every dollar counts.[/QUOTE] Almost all crowdfunding campaigns have a $1 or $5 tier that is basically just "Thanks!"

[QUOTE=Elspin;46698428][img]https://worldwidefunder.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/wwf-project%2F00%2F00%2F00%2F03%2F25%2F548a117fc31f8%2Fpeople_tablet_sta_Mishail.png[/img][/QUOTE] [Euphoric Fundraising Intensifies]

[QUOTE=KorJax;46698471]He didn't They literally just said in their FAQ that they can use the name STALKER because "stalker is a common word" and they trademarked "stalker apocalypse" so therefore they can "do what they want" If this actually becomes a thing (it won't) it will get sued out of high heaven by the actual copyright owners of STALKER They are doing this because they think they can trick people to give them money this time if they actually "use" the IP they want to be associated with as if its their own property, even if they say "well I don't mean its ACTUALLY a stalker game!". This is basically copyright violation 101 and it would never hold up in a court Of course this is assuming they actually try and make something out of this game that isn't total "we skipped town once we got your money" trash. Because that's what they totally are doing, if it wasn't obvious from them using a super obscure funding site that probably lets them keep all money donated to them in a 90 day period.[/QUOTE] Well... [img]https://worldwidefunder.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/wwf-project%2F00%2F00%2F00%2F03%2F25%2F548993a950d98%2Fstalker2log%D0%93%CC%8117.png[/img] The bolts look suspiciously like periods, it looks like S.T.A.L.K.E.R. They could possibly have a case.

I really want to know the full story behind GSC, because I know one prick can't tank an entire company matter how big he is. I really hope it wasn't anything like those rumors because that would be so stereotypical it would be comical.
