Since everyone responsible for the cancellation are no longer working at S*****

Messiah

Couldn't we go back to them for support? Who knows, maybe they will recognize us for what we are, and the game for what it is...

1) Ok. So I don't know half of why they cancelled the game, and I definitely do not know anything about the legal biz surrounding the game, but if the cancellation was decided by people who are today no longer working at S*****, maybe there are still some people left who would've supported the game.

2) You have put up with enough of this, Rick, Randy and team, and this is just the deluded ravings of a fan wanting to play your game more than any other game I ever heard of, but if any game company could resurrect B5ITF now, It sadly is S*****.

3) Is it worth a shot?

Well they could always wander down to Nintendo HQ and offer their services there.... if they could achieve what Rare are doing with Rogue Leader, then they could blow everything out of the water.....

Yeah, it is a good idea, but I don't know how practicle it is. Hopefully it is very, but I'm not sure.

I'd say that it's not an option unless S****a themselves offer to pick up the game again and give away the IP. We could try, though. There's always a first time.

Shuup Nick

Perhaps if we were to petition them to show what a strong fan base the game has, and how it would be a profitable move, it could persuade them, seeing as the game is nearly finished.

Unfortunately, that is what the devs were doing to get funding.

What I meant was, maybe Sierra would be interested in funding the game now? would it be worth mailing / phoning them about it?

That's a good point. I suppose it is worth a try. Maybe we could mail this new guy.

Bump.

I think it would be worth a try at least, but if the devs say no, I will give up on this thought, well?

I talked to a friend about this some days ago, and we too would find it great if Sierra now would continue ItF with the adequate team (read: S14S), but i don't know how their point of view to Sierra is... and I remember them saying that the latest attempt would be their last to revive ItF... the thing is, that the Sierra thingie doesn't have to be initiated by them.. they could even be contacted by the new Sierra chief.. it'd be really interesting to hear their POV...
