SEGA secures publishing rights for RTW-BI

[Marcellus]

Thanks for all the help in dispelling my ignorance.

Sounds like Activision did a pretty awful job. Let's just hope Sega does better.

I hope Sega does much better than Activision. I especially want them to finance a dedicated server built into the next release after BI.

I just hope that SEGA goes after the publishing rights to STW and MTW. Other wise those STW2 and MTW2 you guys are all dreaming about can never happen.

I had put out a thread not to long ago in an attempt to understand the financing relationship between CA and Sega. It went unnoticed and quickly died. Oh well.

I am mostly curious as to what the funding relationship between CA and Sega is: Development? Production? Distribution and Promotion?

Is CA project development internally financed from prior projects or does CA require financing from Sega?

Quietus had passed from the grapevine that Sega does not micromanage CA in gameplay decisions. This is good news, but financing determines the number and quality of developers, as wells as equipment and technology, assigned to projects and their patches. Hence, financing determines quality.

Mad Lord Snapcase to replace Homicdal Lord Winder (a man with a very pointed sense of humour)? Who knows.. maybe we need a Vimes..
