And it will only have been a year when it shuts down, not even a year before the announcement of EOL. Dead games suck. Software shouldn't be able to die, but this will end up being something unplayable very soon and that just sucks whether you like the game or not really.
I know nothing about this game, but I hate that games can just kill their service now. There's plenty to criticize about player-hosted multiplayer games, but at least they don't rely upon the company maintaining it.
I feel sorry for the twelve guys who loved this game. But everytime I tried playing it it just wasn't worth the effort or time for me. I liked the idea but the execution makes me glad I don't dnt put any money down for it.
