Even the link to the lawsuit on Scribd is appearing in news.google.com searches for 'Star Citizen' which is loving hilarious to me That image, printed on professional grade, 100 year archival paper, and mounted in a finely-hand-crafted frame would make a great Chrismas present.

Gotta love how Tarkaroshe really believes that SC brings all the views to Twitch and Amazon will protect CIG/SC for those precious SC views.

God can you imagine what this will do to developer motivation. All your work you have done or planned to do might be in worthless to your end goal. That has to be crushing.

So there's two other lawsuits getting fired up as well? Please please please let one of them be from AMD so we can finally see that letter.

TheAgent posted:minimum settlement on this would probably be something like $30m, with absolute and total control of any and all original cryengine assets and code turned over and a complete production halt on star citizen / squadron 42 At the very, hilarious minimum, Star Citizen and Squadron 42 are hosed. They may as well stop development and erase everything/send it to crytech and start everything from scratch using another engine. Everything they have done to date is cooked.

I can see it now: "Mr. Amazon, please help us save our game and PC gaming. We're using your platform and everything. We'll give you lots of positive press and feature you in game and ever. Now, I know that we're in trouble cause we promised that to the last suc- I mean business partner and we went back on it, but we're good for it this time I swear" EDIT: Just for shits, games with more viewers than SC right now: Doki Doki Literature Club (a free horror Visual Novel); Okami; Kerbal; Dofus....

FYI, today was just the tip of the iceberg. What comes next, and which I've also been sitting on for months, is bigger than this CryTek lawsuit, and even more hilarious. ----------------

El Grillo posted:Have any forum internet lawyers has a good look at the pleadings yet? What's the verdict? Also are there pre-action protocols in the USA/the relevant states requiring parties to pursue ADR solutions before issuing proceedings? Skadden isn't infallible, and I've seen firms just as prestigious get poured out. But they don't make dumb, obvious mistakes, so CIG is going to need some serious lawyers of their own. The complaint is cleverly set up so that CIG might walk into one claim trying to deny another (for example, their press release), and it might not even contain their best stuff. It's entirely possible they're saving it for an amended complaint, to avoid tipping off CIG during discovery. And judges can usually order parties into mediation, but I'm not certain about this particular court. I'm curious why Ortwin didn't include an arbitration provision that would hide all this from the outside world, especially being from the film industry where it's common.
