I didn't think there was any hope when I first read that someone bought this game. I figured that Little Orbit was some tiny company with lots of funding and was really reaching and wouldn't succeed. Having watched the CEO speak on stream about the problems this game has, the way things have been handled in the past and his process for moving forward was exactly what this community needed. This game was and is held in such low regard by me and my friends that it needed a complete reboot with someone who is pragmatic, positive thinking and realistic for us to give it a second thought. The whole Q&A session showed me Little Orbit is a professional organization and they came to play. A few of the things I found interesting:
1) Coming out of pocket for BattlEye is huge. I know it's not cheap and the fact you guys went with them says a lot.
2) Your roadmap stages for infrastructure, unification and critical mechanics then content afterward is spot on. It sucks you can't dive straight into mechanics and content but that's the state APB is in.
3) The way you talked about the mismanagement of this game in the past by Gamer's First really sold me on your company. Honest and upfront with a plan to move forward to fix the screw ups.
You guys have a huge task in front of you but I have faith now, great stream!
