[DE]Drew 1,524 Posted October 25, 2017 Hello Fellow Eternals, After many discussions internally on the state of The Amazing Eternals, we have decided to hit the pause button on development at this time. This decision didn’t come lightly. We worked hard to make a game that we are proud to say was shaping up to have great potential. However, we took an honest look at the current gaming landscape and how the game was performing in Closed Beta. Unfortunately, the game wasn’t attracting players fast enough to support a viable matchmaking player base with the current game design direction, which is the lifeblood of this type of game. So, with heavy hearts, we’re taking a step back to reevaluate the design and may revisit our intrepid heroes in the future. For those players who believed in what we were making and invested their hard-earned cash into the Founders Program, we are humbled by and grateful for your dedication and support. Refunds will be issued over a 72-hour period beginning today, October 26, 2017 and may take up to 3 to 5 business days to process. During this period, the game servers will remain live until 11:59pm ET, November 2, 2017. The official forums and Discord will remain live indefinitely for players who want to stay in contact with each other, and the entire development team will remain with Digital Extremes and transition to Warframe development, so if you’re a Warframe player, you may still see us around. This was a hard decision to make, and we can’t thank you enough for your incredible support throughout development. The Amazing Eternals will live on through all of you who were there to make it happen. We do not have any additional plans to discuss at this time, but feel free to post any questions or concerns here, and we’ll try to answer them. 27 27 Share this post Link to post

Xinchro 25 Posted October 26, 2017 Damn... that sucks. While I wasn't one of the most passionate players nor one of the ones that played all too often, I did enjoy The Amazing Eternals for what it was. I hate to see it go by the wayside. I hope the team can pull their spirits up and go forward with their heads held high. Thanks for fighting the good fight, TAE team. 9 2 Share this post Link to post

FrostedMike 37 Posted October 26, 2017 (edited) I didn't play in a while because of PoE in Warframe, but I wanted to revisit the game and even got one or two more friends into the game from my game design studies. I learn game design and started my second year yesterday. The teacher wanted us to make a presentetion about a less known game and TAE was the first game that came into my mind, unfortunatly there are less chances now to play live and showcase the game. I was *This* close to introduce the game to 30+ people while it's live and I still have 5 beta keys left. I'm still going to introduce it tho and make my presentation. Hope you will revisit the project one day. "Command, it's been an honor to serve with you" Edited October 26, 2017 by FrostedMike 12 Share this post Link to post
Vindictive 17 Posted October 26, 2017 (edited) This saddens me.. I really enjoyed TAE more than any other game in its field. The characters were so good... Farewell to my favored character Ray. I'll never have another to share a passion with nozzles with... good bye UFO friend. Additionally, how will the refund process work? Will you just send the money I paid back to the bank? Will you require any additional information? Edited October 26, 2017 by Vindictive 6 Share this post Link to post
Nelokon 32 Posted October 26, 2017 Moments like this happen. First off thank you to the staff for all you did. Truly were close to a home run. I had a lot of fun playing with many in the community and DE. Damn, still sucks though, the feelings. Keep up the solid work elsewhere. I'm a bit lost on words right now. Forever Ray and Winter. Cheers guys and gals. 3 Share this post Link to post
Legit 326 Posted October 26, 2017 you know what sorry for 3rd time commenting but keep the money DE and i want it to go to your next project and the money to help you do it 5 1 Share this post Link to post
KaJuPe 3 Posted October 26, 2017 Aww ;-; While this is sad I fully respect your choice! Making a FPS game is hard since there are so many other big titles in the genre, but it was brave of you to try! You had some good ideas going with the retro theme and I was impressed by the ammount of detail and love that went into the game! I (along with a lot of others) hope you try again some time. It was a great idea! Much Respect to all of you at DE! -KaJuPe 2 1 Share this post Link to post
Thorinwhitewolf 2 Posted October 26, 2017 damn. i actually like this game.. this is a dark day having read this. 2 Share this post Link to post
MrInvizible 9 Posted October 26, 2017 Damn... I'm sorry to hear that guys... I really loved the idea behind your game. It reminded me of Megaman Battle Network, one of my favorite games of all time. No other game has ever made me feel closer to it. I hope to hear that, much like your Eternals, you will come back to life one day. Take all the respawn time you need though. 3 Share this post Link to post
Sannidor 8 Posted October 26, 2017 The game has had issues but I would not bury the project based on CLOSED BETA feedback. How was it supposed to attract players? By sharing keys on few MMO pages? Seriously... You should go open for at least six months and not rely on founder packs to get money but earn from micro transactions. Sure, I would enjoy TPP game with FPP/over the shoulder aiming much more but Amazing Eternals was a unique experience and I hope to see the game return with improved formula. 3 Share this post Link to post
