  I’d be surprised if they had net positive income on Tribes 3. A lot of veteran gamers of the series saw who was really running development and decided to stay away. Once bitten, twice shy. The writing was on the wall that it was a dead game back in June.

  I think that’s a different company.

    Technically yes. However, the company buildings are directly across the street, the studio behind this game used to be part of Hirez , the founder is the same person and ofcourse the Tribes franchise is property of Hirez. It really seems like these companies are the same entity under the hood
