Any Chris Taylor reaction on Planetary Annihilation ?

Of course he is being negative about the game cause he realized it will be the awesome glorious successor to TA but the devs are a rather small company. The fact that the devs worked on both TA and SupCom is probably pissing him off cause he thinks its a cheap way of creating a great game and having a lot of fans from the start who loved those two games.

I just hope we as a community will be able to get this game into the heavens. Regardless if it will be e-sports, modding or simply attracting people with epic battles.

I hope all 3 will be a win. :mrgreen:

How about showing a little respect to the man that created TA in the first place.

If it weren't for CT's vision and TA, you wouldn't be on a PA forum today insulting him.

Agreed. There is no reason to insult him. He simply has a different vision of what an RTS game should be. This is perfectly valid and even expected.

You may as well insult an artist because you personally don't like their work. Doing so is a waste of time and does nothing to advance the cause of art.

Well, Uber contains a lot of the people that were standing behind TA/SC... the very talented ones... at least a lot... I would be pissed too to lose all my good employees.

To be honest, I would not listen to him right now, he is too busy with himself (just a guess).
I saw an interview at the E3 with him, talking about his new upcoming MMO and I just did not feel that he was authentic... don't know how to explain it any better... hope you understand.

My personal take on CT's bitterness is that he realizes now (20/20 hindsight) that he made a bad move involving Square Enix with SC2.

So after digging around for CT's thoughts on PA, I realized that there are actually 3 Chris Taylor's who are game developers. How confusing is that.

- Chris Taylor of Total Annihilation
- Chris Taylor of Fallout
