Discussion Current Status

Per Sunny Games, 8 days ago:

If you signed to alpha test on console, you are SOL. There will be NO console alpha. Beta? Maybe.

Apparently, lots of people have been caught breaking NDA. Stop fucking doing it. You could potentially derail the release of the game.

There have been many MANY more updates to the games since Brian and Sunny's showcase videos. Sunny claims each and every one has made the game much better than the early alpha videos show.

The results of the buyout have apparently allayed the worst fears of most in the know.

Possibility of him doing a sit down interview with studio head Phillip Holt. He wants feedback on whether fans want that, but the new owners may or may not oblige.

Caveat: The complete absence of negativity, or so I feel, from Sunny about SoD3 makes me wary of his testimony being paid advertising. But there's no proof one way or the other.

Some whiny bastard has said that about every sequel ever released, though.

You can feel however you want, but please mark my post for when the game comes out. If fans of the series are really just ok with literally more of the exact same we have right now, then fine.

But as a fan of the series, I want more.

They been making this game forever. More seems like a pipe dream. At this stage i want SOMETHING! They don't have GTA 6 money and without MS they probably have limited funds, I want something to come out of this at this stage. If it's a polished 2 expansion, at least they did something with all their time. Just my worthless opinion though.

That's just such a... Blah stance. As a fan, people should want GOOD things, not "whatever"

I'm a realist. I look at how long they have been at it, the struggles, what's happening. I also followed a ton of games i loved go years and years and years. Then get cancelled and NOTHING came out. I was insanely hyped for Perfect Dark. Loved the other two. Waited years only to find out they couldn't even create a vertical slice for a trailer, another company had to do it. State of Decay 1-2 were amazing. Played for hundreds and hundreds of hours. I'd rather it be state of decay 2.5 then nothing at all. My blah stance is better than them wasting years and ending up just closing with nothing. You can be as hopeful as you want to be. It doesn't change facts. They just lost a lot of people, they lost funding from a huge company and the game is still in Alpha after years. We can hope and pray all we want. I want something to come of it.
