Gods and Heroes cancelled, Perpetual Entertainment in limbo

[CptStern]

this sucks, Gods and Heroes wasnt all that far from release:

Perpetual Entertainment has indefinitely delayed (essentially canceled) Gods and Heroes. The company will continue work on their development platform and Star Trek Online, and continue its operations in the same San Francisco studio under the same management. Gods and Heroes: Rome Rising, though, is no more.

Our source tells us that the majority of the Gods and Heroes development team has been let go as part of the move, which comes only a few weeks after they had downsized and pushed back the release date. The Star Trek Online team, those who worked on the Perpetual Platform (which was recently licensed to BioWare) and a small number of people from the Gods and Heroes team will be remain with the company.


Update 8:28 PM EST: We originally reported that Perpetual Entertainment had been acquired by another firm, but according to further sources at Perpetual this not in fact the case. It will continue on as described above with new investors.

lol i beta tested the piece of shit.
Not much of beta test though.
The server was practically always offline.
I expected an Age of Conan type mmo from them.
Boy, was i wrong.
No wonder they're canceling it.
After all,it's nothing more then a poor Everquest 2 clone that's set in Roman times.

Whoever gave them the rights to work on a Star Trek mmo will soon be without a job.
These guys have no ****ing clue what gamers want nor do they listen to them.

that bad huh? I was mildly interested in Gods and heroes

I was interested very briefly too. I am glad I wasn't too invested!

ya but there's also Star Trek Online ..it was sold to an independent developer ..that doesnt sound too good to me, small developers rarely have the cash to make and sustain a mmo
