[QUOTE="shutyertrap, post: 292490, member: 134"] They aren't ignoring their customers so much as not making promises that they then have to back away from. Look at it from a marketing perspective; you want to announce and then release soon after to capitalize on customer hype. If you announce too early, you give customers the chance to second guess their own excitement. No way did anyone license out for 8 years, that's just not how things work. At the most, you sign an exclusivity agreement that will last for 2 or 3 years tops, and then anyone else can come in and sign on the to license too, or sign their own exclusivity agreement (UbiSoft did this with South Park, which is why it can't be sold by Zen anymore). The only license I think FarSight continues to keep up to date is the one for Doctor Who. All the others are up for grabs at this point. [/QUOTE]
