I just need to say (as I often had) hope is not a strategy and it's literally that you're holding on after almost 10 years of Little Orbit development. It's not about punch them in the face, but if those things was meant to happen - it would have long, long time ago :3
That's a quite good point actually, however, I do believe they have other projects going on rather only APB:Reloaded. But I can't say for sure.
