All the old crappy games devs need to form a massive group and unite their skills to make a one complete great game.

Hi - why release a game and then take it down to work on it? then in my opinion shouldn't have been released in first place. it´s better to just keep the game in early access/beta.. allot companies fails to achieve good game cuz thay dont use much game tester eny more! thay rather trhow out a pay erly access insted of paying ppl to test there game out...

I don't understand breaks, either you keep the game going and improve it (if it's meant to be improved) or you take the game down because it's not working. Hiatus cuts feedback from players which is the basics of it all when it comes to online nowadays! To me this is a 80% chance of RIP!

I wanna just say this. I repsect their decisions to take it down to improve it because no one want's to play a garbage MMO anyone would want the devs to improve their game if it needs it. But if their company is handling a decent amount of MMOs then they should just drop the MMO they shut down for good. I don't think it's a good idea to bring a project down for a year then bring it back unless the project can guarentee profits and popularity.
