Diplomacy goes on....
The Diplomacy mainstream hobby is going and going...
there will be the face to face tournaments every month, almost every week
somewhere in the world...there will be the World Diplomacy Championships in Berlin this summer and then next summer in Vancouver British Columbia...
there are the thousands of players playing play by email games with lag time in many different languages- English-French-Spainish-Czech- etc...
there are web based games as well as auto-judge games...
The missteps by the development group are there for history but as this is the third attempt at a commercial PC game, I suspect that there will be a fourth attempt...the hobby is entrenched, determined and deserving of support...now if we can only get a development team that will listen to the hobby.
PS... I do not read the PI release as blaming any of their partners in this.
There are many reasons that PC games are not patched further most of the time it is because of code issues and not commercial or hobby interest.
