Crazy Ideea.

I kept on seeing on internet how the developers of DDS 1&2 are investigating and planning on suing Schedule 1 for copyright. I am don't have the information necessary or the mental capacity to give arguments pro or contra regarding this issue as i have not played any of DDS games. I only played and enjoyed Schedule 1 so far.

Therefore instead of suing Schedule 1 why not try to make an agreement with Tyler to come and work for Byterunners (which are the developers for DDS if i am right) as a partner. Give him a team of people who can implement and test his ideeas for the game and work to improve Schedule 1 TOGHETER.

That way everybody will have to win.

P.S. I have seen DDS on You Tube a few times and i did not like it. Also my full support goes to Tyler and i feel sorry for him that he has to go through all this because of 'reasons'

Hang in there brother and good luck!

Because Tyler has probably made more money then DDS 1/2 combined. He's got better vision for what Schedule 1 can become and he can work on it at his own pace without pressure.

"I kept on seeing on internet"

Yeah, you see a lot of things on the Internet, and it turns out not all of them are true. Yes, they were looking into it to ensure there were no issues, that's just doing your due diligence as an IP holder. No, there are not currently plans for a lawsuit so far as anyone is aware. That might change at some point, but most of the points of similarity just come with making a game about dealing drugs, and have been part of the genre since the MS-DOS days with Dope Wars. Unless there's something more under the hood I'm not aware of, any suit would be unlikely to succeed outside of MAYBE simple and easily-changed things like the implementation of a curfew or the specific art design of the drop boxes.

The investigation for 'similarities' is such an idiotic thing to do. As Asmongold have said "the source material is the same" therefore there are gonna be some similarities.
Or to put it more simple: Why we don't investigate other people for similarities regarding breathing?

You really, really shouldn't be listening to him as a credible source on just about anything, but that much is largely correct.

The publisher of DDS has officially announced there is no lawsuit. Its fake news.
