First of all i removed the rest what you said so it would be easier to read my responds.
Tbh (almost) everybody that is a developer that gets there game removed from the / a (steam) store during a special / huge sale will react the same way like David did yesterday.
I feel mutch better after reading this post.
Hope you david and all the team will pass over this moment, same if it s hard !
Put your hand's on top, and continue what you doing since the start:
I mean communicate and regular update, do what you think is trhe best.
Try to make ultimate weapons.
Look like Activision follow your game, well, destroy them with idea weapon design......
You know........ do of currently a strenght to show activision don t put you on the ground ^^ and show you can get sell record as indie develloper.
Be over other AAA develloper, continue create/build continue give.
No need to say, the DMCA was falling on you because succes i guess.
Well continue win succes ^^ just with 1$ wave game, activision don't love that.
Oh and welcome back from the banned lol :D
That can be taken either way. Every time I protect the team first, like a child from a parent, without facts or information, it burns me in events like this. It comes from a good place, where I want to protect my own. But anyone can look at that from the other lens which is that I am taking a side without all information available.
It's a tricky situation, many things involved in this event were and it's something I need to think more about and try and approach differently or better.
yeah especially since he is obviously so personally invested; i actually can completely sympathize with him now, i'm sure it looks bad to him in retrospect...kind of like the morning after being black out drunk. that's why i have switched back and am now deleting all comments blasting david and am prepared to buy this game and see how it compares to ARK/Star Citizen.
that being said i still have no respect for the artists stealing from Treyarch...but David stepped up and did the right thing in firing him and diverting his other resources/team members to replacing the assets whith fresh ones
Although i agree it can be taken either way, most of my education and leadership training has always asserted that this sort of parenting mechanic is 100% a characteristic of good leader. You should always have their back until proven otherwise, and this will in turn foster the same feelings for you as the leader. Things other than this sentiment definitely could have been handled better yesterday; but today you definitely have your CEO game face on, my dude.

You may not like me, but I have never lied about anything. I am pretty open in real-time.
on side note, I don't exactly know your fiasco
but I find it the claim rather amusing, specially when not all weapons are look the same, sure it might share same 3D Model, but in my opinion they look so different, and yes if there's a similarity anyone can prove it otherwise.
also, the funny thing is, everyone jumping on bandwagon claiming that you need to provide "evidence" when in reality accuser is the one who need to provide it.
And I agree with your decision to stay away from Social Media, specially reddit, it will consume your soul.
it's really an easy fix, if Activision just provide what's infringing their IP, but then again, I completely clueless about that, and I only know from what's been described on news page.
I see it on bigger picture, if anyone can claim DCMA from Steam, it's most certainly it will be like youtube fiasco all over again when someone/group can claim anything based on nothing just to see their target suffer while holding their revenue (which in this case is so much worse), and that is scary.
What's next? DCMA claim for Armor and UNIFORM because the pattern is "exactly" the same? when every uniform for soldier are technically are the same thing.
This is good news!
Hello David, know it's been tough over the past couple of days.
My question: your stressed and sound very busy with the Game, when was your last holiday from it all.
I really wish the best for you David and the whole Trek Team.
I am so glad that it's business as usual and hopefully after this fiasco it will make "Orion" and "Trek Industries" Stronger!
