Norbert, what would WIS need to see to put resources in to make it a better game?  Seems like there's sufficient interest for a paid game.

The problem is that some people, like me, can't pay for the game. If the game does go to a paid version, I would really like to see users grandfathered in for a certain amount of time.

I'd be a player at $5 per season with the game as is.  If they significantly upgrade it, I'd pay $10 bucks a season.  I'm pretty sure a lot of folks would agree to those terms.

I'd agree with this.

Sorry, I've not responded in these forums for quite a while.  I've been busy developing on the GD engine update.  At this point, I don't think development on FCD is a money issue as much as a resource issue.  Would seem like the same thing, but apparently in business it isn't always.  We're trying to keep up on the resources we have for our current games that we've had to let FCD run "as is".  To say I'd really, really like to rework FCD to a game that is supported and updated would be an understatement.  But we've kind of had to pull back and start concentrating on a few games rather than spread thin over many.  If we ever get to where we have the resources, I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't do some work on FCD - even if it's in a different package.

Thanks for checking in, norbert.  I'd like to think you're at least saying indirectly that there are no current plans to pull the plug on FCD.  Hopefully you and others can see that there is a meaningful user base here.  Those of us who have an interest in FCD have genuine interest.

Yes, thanks norbert and damag.

Thanks for keeping us informed!

The gods are cruel.

im newer to this game but i love it! but norbert, i would be interested in joining more than just 1 world, any chance you could make a minor tweak so this could happen?

I can answer that for you. No.

Just create an alt ID.  We all have them
