Is There Anybody Out There?

Why can’t they just leave the game running?

i'm not the best one for explaining it, but it could be financial, contractual, or any number of reasons. the main thing is that the return of SWC, as the game we know, is pretty unlikely, especially in these early days. its better to look for some evolution in the way of a new game or interest, hopefully while keeping the SWC community and culture intact. there is a chance the code is released, and several ways the game could in fact be brought back, but for right now it's not that important. ie, 'what will happen' is a better question than 'what happened'.

wow, well, i failed to answer the question, but maybe that provided some kind of... something... insight? i dunno

Well. Tried to log into the game yesterday and errored out. Guess it is officially dead now.

I don't know if there really is a correlation: But with the announcement to close Star Wars: Commander, the Zynga share has developed quite well ...

@SithVicious - thats... surprisingly encouraging - it could mean they have a big project that investors are interested in. then again, could be coincidental, but hey, at least its something

[DeathStriker]

just wondering how many of you are still roaming the forums hoping for a miracle... the place feels pretty lonely all of a sudden.

RogueRevolution - I got to admit that when I saw this Topic's "Title" I thought of this...

... especially around timecode of 0:28...

@DeathStriker
oh crap are they gonna sue me? i swear it was a coincidence...
pink floyd's pretty epic tho, i haven't heard too much of their stuff but i've liked what i have, and the dark side of the moon (album) art is just iconic, hoping i can come up with something that good if/when i get some albums done

Wow. Most people seem to be ignoring your post, but I guess it shows that SWC was just a millstone around Zynga's necks and closing the game down to focus on their new shooter was the best thing to happen to their shares.

I also still can't believe so many people here are in denial about the game closing. It's been five days.

[RogueRevolution]

can't believe you bothered to check these forums... it's been 5 days, after all.

...either that or just 4 days, i guess.
