Last week, the Subnautica community was rocked when the game's original creators, and Unknown Worlds founders, were ꩲremoved from the studio "effective immediately". The 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:news came as "quite a shock" to former CEO Charlie Cleveland, who, along with fellow firees Ted Gill and Max McGuire, revealed that 168澳洲幸🌃运5开奖网:Subna✱utica 2 was ready for early access. Despite this, it was reported that Krafton was planning to delay👍 Subnautica 2 to avoid paying the studio founders🐼 $250 million in bonuses, a delay which shortly came to pass.
"The Point Of Subnautica Is Not To Kill Everything": Subnautica 2 Devs Respond To Story And Weapons Backlash 🍰
Subnautica 2 devs have responded to recent criticism over the diཧrection of the game.
Krafton, now the owners of Unknown Worlds, offered a different perspective on things, stating that the trio was removed because they "168澳洲幸运5开奖网:abandoned tꦇhe responsibilities entrusted to them," adding that "nothing has change💝d with how the game is structured".
Seemingly, this explanation hasn't gone down well with Gil🅷l, McGuire, 🐭and Cleveland, with the latter to share that they have filed a lawsuit against Krafton.
Unknown Worlds Founders Are Suing Krafton In A "Painful, Public, And Possibly Protracted Way"
Postin💃g on both Twitter and , C⭕leveland told fans, "It continues to be an explosive and surreal time for the Subnautica team and community. None of this is what we wanted. But we truly appreciate the amazing support we’ve gotten from everyone.
"As I wrote last week, we know in our souls that the game is ready for Early Access - that’s just how we roll. And w🔯e’d like nothing more than for you to play it (game devs live for this). But it’s not currently under our control."
We’ve now filed a lawsuit against Krafton: the details should ev🅠entually become (at least mostly) public - you all deserve thꦉe full story.
After thanking fans for their support, Cleveland continued by saying, "We’ve now filed a lawsuit against Krafton: the details should eventually become (at least mostly) public - you all deserve the full story. Suing a multi-billion dollar company in a painful, public and possibly protracted way was certainly not on my bucket list. But this needs to be made right. Subnautica has been my life’s work, 🦂and I would never willingly abandon it or the amazing team that has pour🍒ed their hearts into it."
Over the last few days, the $250 million bonus has been a hot topic of conversation, a point that Cleveland also addressed. "As for the earnout, the idea that Max, Ted and I wanted to keep it all for ourselves is totally untrue. I’m in this industry because I love it, not for riches," he wrote. "Historically, we’ve always shared our profits with the team and did the same when we sold🎃 the studio. You can be damned sure we’ll continue with the earnout/bonus as well. They deserve it for all their incredible work trying to get this great game into your hands."
The sudden flurry of changes hasn't only impacted the three Unknown World developers, with many community members taking things personally. So far, there have been multiple, uncoordinated efforts to take a stand against Krafto𒀰n, with players v꧟owing to review-bomb Subnautica 2 when it launches, remove it from their wishlist, and email Krafton's senior leadership team. It doesn't look like th🌄is one is going away anytime soon.
