Education is key. If people would just take the time to read a little bit more into the situation, we wouldn't have so many problems. Volition understands the fan's gripes, but unfortunately they just don't have the resources to do a lot about them.

---

If education is the key, how hard would it be for THQ/Volition to "educate" us stupid gamers about thier reasons for discontinuing support for the game? I would have been satisfied with a memo at the Red Faction home page saying something as simple as "Thank you for purchasing Red Faction, but we no longer have the resources to supply support for this product, we would like to thank the community for thier devotion to our product" THQ/Volition also has the resources to release the source code. That there would give us the ability to easily construct our own patch. The only reason Half-life has counter-strike is because they released the source code. If it wasnt for that Half-life would have been another game in the pile, but instead a few fans developed one of the most popular mods ever made for any game. If THQ/Volition has thier work properly copyrighted no one can steal the Geo-mod technology(there is nothing there that John Carmack doesnt already know how to do along with many other good programers). How about someone "leak" it to me hint hint T O D D

I think it was already mentioned earlier in this thread ... but if you want the quick and dirty answer to why RF isn't "supported" -- that answer is "MONEY"

The same answer applies to why RF2 isn't (currently) coming to the PC. Is that so difficult to understand?

I just don't like leechers, and people that don't contribute.

I find that if you force them to register...it filters out the ppl that just wanna spam or ask one silly question...to the people that actually care.

Now I think if you cared about the info about this developing of the patch enuf, then you could take maybe 2 minutes out of your life to sign-up.

Well, I think you all should know why [V] didn't continue with support for RF1.

The publisher of the game (THQ in this case) is the one that decides to continue with support for a game. The publisher is the one with the money, therefore the one with all the power. They have the final decision on if a sequel is made as well. The developer does exactly that, they develop the game. After the game is released, its in the publishers hands to decide what happens.

That is why [V] is not to blame, and thats a fact.

You have been Regulated. Goodbye.

Unfortunately I don't have time to sift through the RF links daily and see which sites went belly up. I had forgotten about the forum link. I fixed it. take that!

There's no way it took you 2 minutes. That's total bull. I don't know about you, but I actually know what I have to do every day, and I don't really have time to keep up with those links. Sorry this upsets you, but you're going to have to live with it.

The forum link is never going to be removed. It takes quite some time to add or remove a link from that nav bar. You may not believe that, but again, you don't really have a clue what goes into it. That's the best I can do with the time I have to give to the RF1 website.

[V] can't do anything htey want, you know. THey're owned by the publisher, which, in RF's case, is THQ. THQ is huge, and [V] to them is small and insignificant in the grand scheme of money-making.

EDIT: Claire Claws, I recognise you from somewhere... the NGI server maybe?

When I'm rich as hell, I'll buy V and force them to do FS3, FS4, FS5... all the way to FS7376, which should be enough. They'll be paid with peanuts and be forced to sing their uncomparable joy to work 25 hours per day for the most horrible boss one would ever have, me that is. Hehehehehehehe

But I'll never get rich. Too bad.

You'll have to buy THQ to get us to do anything. Also, you'll have to buy Interplay so we can use the freespace license.
