And I hope this doesn't turn into a flame contest.
First, a statement...Eluzion, nice job on the website. This is one step in the right direction. Kudos to you! :D
Now for the questions to anyone at management at G2I; I ask with the sincerest tone possible.
The G2I coders and development team have been nebulous at best. Mostly it seems like G2I relying on the community and BMS as of late. I want desperately to believe in this project but so many community based projects never really take off and hardly ever develop projects as fast as the press release indicated, Q4 2004. That would almost certainly mean that work already started. The community certainly can help but I hope this is more a for profit venture with a team dedicated to cranking out the best sim. In other words, I hope there is a team of full-time coders whose job it is to make a sim with community input of course.
1) Who is GenAv Simulations?
2) Are they the developers and coders?
3) Who are the coders? Does G2I or GenAv have a team?
A) Who is the DX guru?
B) Who is/are the graphic artist(s)?
C) Who is the campaign guru?
D) How many general coders are they compiling and writing code?
4) Is the BMS team involved at all? It would be a shame if not since JAM and his team have proven themselves capable of coding wonders.
5) The objectives sound like a dream sim. Are these really expectations that can be met by the team you have? I only ask because you, G2I, are heading for trouble if something is announced then retracted.
6) What exactly is the timeline here? I would suppose that G2I has set different goals for the alpha and beta of the sim. Heck by the timescale you should already be at alpha.
7) About how often can we expect updates? Daily, weekly, monthly? Having a product in a niche market, G2I needs to do quite a bit of good public relations and marketing of the sim.
8 ) Are there any screenshots?
9) Has the coding indeed started yet?
I am starting to ramble. If I have more questions I'll come back. I really wish you guys the best but I am still unsure of the outcome. I need to see something tangible and proof that there are people working on the sim. Here is to hoping...
