Daybreak is Being Acquired
 
Quote:

The Daybreak Game Company will be acquired by EG7 Global, following a deal announced earlier today that's worth $300 million (cash and debt-free). EG7 had just acquired Piranha Games, developer of MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries and MechWarrior Online, for $24 million.

Here's hoping the new overlords keep the agreement with Project 1999 ...

Maybe they will, just a few days ago they started to crowdsource game info from us

I don't think they will care about project 1999

they make shit loads of cash off people willing to pay for 40 accounts just to box

Most people on the TLPs have played P99, arguably some kept their love for EQ alive here before going back to enjoy new Freeport, boxing 3-4 accounts and whatever else they can't do here.

I'm sure a mega-rights holder conglomerate is going to be super chill with p99.

Their website homepage is a quarterly earnings report with links for investors, seems super chill.

EQ Next revival ?

I mean daybreak had the decency to make the original agreement, they had every incentive to just shut it all down too, and didn't. Maybe these guys will either be too big to even notice we're a thing, or will have the same decency. Or maybe the elf party is over. I hope not :(

Are all the other emulator servers operating under some agreement with daybreak?

if not how are they able to use daybreak's IP?

Probably because daybreak did nothing to require them to do otherwise.
