Not so dark future...

So, the game is down.
Servers contents are being neatly packed and stored, Database backed up and ready to be moved.

What happens now?
Well, we have basically agreed with MADE about them running the servers and we are helping with the move.
This faces a bunch of issues:
- domain name being part of the deployment process
- a very specific server set-up
- Steam Dev Accounts transfer (if we want to be able to preserve your character advancement)
- Microsoft allowing the whole thing

We are again spending our weekends in prepping for the above and now we are joined in this by the great people behind MADE.

This operation may fail at any of the above hurdles with different levels of likeliness.
IF it succeeds you guys will be the first to know and I will keep you updated about progress.

If you want to check what primetide is up to, you can go to The Underground games website [www.undergroundgames.de] and a core part of the team is working on a Fantasy themed turn-based strategy game releasing next year, which I will also be able to say more about soonish, I hope.


Thanks again for playing and here's to all of you!

the game itself, the dynamics and atmosphere was really good. The in-depth fan-fiction and the accentss were awesome. A truly magnifficent turn based roller-coaster.. But, that roller-coaster went the same way all the time. Personally, I was kind've late starting the game, but then, after the 'rebirth' of player characters it just felt like a clone.. Not the Fett!

sadly, Microsoft isnt realy know for its charity, i wouldnt get the hopes up to high. only if someone can throw enough dollars at them they will decide to do something.

Crowdfunding?

It would have to be a legal licensing agreement since Microsoft owns the rights to the Shadowrun IP.

Hahahahahahahah! Well-played!

Now that the game is officially dead, are you able to share any news with us?

[Mak]

Any news about servers rising?

[Lohoris]

Guys, I'm reasonably sure that as soon as there is any news, they'll write about it…

[primetide_dev]

Microsoft gave a friendly nod in our direction...nothing signed in any way yet, but they indicated they are open to the idea...

[Tasi]

Really hope microsoft helps out here. I put over 50 hours into this game, and just reinstalled today, only to find out about the server/licensing issues

Good luck, chummers
