And once again this website went for a long time without any real news.
Let's remedy this fact, even though I don't bring the best of news.
First things first.
The game development team called Team Mirage is defunct. As are it's two
projects Silent Risk and Navy Seals: Covert Operations gold.
Our ambitious projects fell short due to a lack of progress, resulting
from a shortage of talented members and overwhelming real life obligations.
Even long standing team members had to leave and so the team eventually
degraded and stopped making any progress.
A definite lack of communication for at least a quarter to half a year
has eventually forced me to acknowledge this sad fact.
As mentioned before, the two projects are defunct. Silent Risk was too
ambitious for the team's capabilities and even though we acquired a few
talented people to help out during development, it wasn't enough to make
the game go anywhere. The project is put on indefinite hold. Maybe it
will see the light of day in the future, but from the current side of things
this is quite unlikely.
NS:CO gold hasn't made any progress in about half a year either. While we
can make no promises, we (that is the meager rest of Team Mirage: N'kEnNy,
Defcon-X and me, Democritus) are currently considering giving it a last
shot during christmas time and then release whatever we have finished.
This release might possibly even be Open Source but we still have to talk
about this.
Now having said all this I also want to apologize to all of you who had
such high hopes for our team and projects. It is a sad day to have to
come and realize this but I'm nevertheless thankful for everyone who
joined us in our endeavors.
This includes our many fans who to this day frequent our messageboard
and who enjoyed many fun filled hours with our games. Thanks also go to
all the talented people who were a part of Team Mirage and it's projects,
who became friends and buddies, and who helped build a great game
while still having tons of fun. I especially want to mention - in no special
order - the following people, who all contributed their
fair share to NS:CO the way it is today:
mIc, Slinky, Cyte, Scrutch, BenB, Gate, talonlzr, hoak, real_man, Rattler, gtk, Ogun, VorpalDoom and many many more.
Thank you. I loved every minute with Team Mirage.
