Amateurs.
They announce their pricing plan which in turn gets them free publicity on this site in the form of a newsbit. Quite a few people, intrigued by the game, download it, create an account and log in to play.
The game server and the official forums have been down for over 48 hours.
Is it any wonder why so many games fold? |
