They are my people. And trust me, they don't care about shit, they just want to have it and meme it to hell and forth.

They won't do anything new to it, they will just shit on it and pretend they are good because they got a code from the biggest server on SS13.
No unique stuff, only memes.
In a way, this might be good, it will quite possibly make CM look better just by comparison.

People have been saying the code should go open source, that it would spawn a much better CM with tons of new, good content and a better community and staff team. Now they have the chance to prove it, I doubt it will work out but anyone who's been shitting on CM can now put their money where their mouth is. Go to BrazilCM, give it a try.

As for my take on this, I'm going to stick with this server for the future. There are already alternatives to CM coming out, like CorpMercs, which offer a similar experiance but much more casual. I have played on that and I see myself doing it again, but I don't see any server stealing the whole CM community and replicating completely what I like about this server.

If people do want ot stop playing on CM and go play on BrazilCM, FewehCM, or whatever new servers come out then go for it. This server would not be worse off if a few people who didn't like the design, community or staff left.

Honestly, I agree. Maybe Corp Mercs will be good for us, it will make some toxic players move there where they don't need to act like a marine and just shoot aliens.

I like CM and it's RP way. I like the kind of freedom you can do to your RP, the events, my fellow staff team. CM is a good place to play.

I just don't like that all the hardwork our devs did just get taken and used on withoout any care or even a "thanks" for it. They worked hard for it, and what they get? Their code to be used on ways they never wanted to.

I salute our dev team and hope some of then do come back. CM won't be dying anytime soon, moreso with our new anime overlord, our drunk daddy and cool mommy.

Time to see if my claims were correct. If another group wants to take up the CM mantle and try to make a drama free CM, now is their chance.

The official response to all of this is laughable.

It is pure damage control and MAX CRINGE. Threatening to sick Fox lawers on competiting servers and sue rivals in state court (when the defendant is in Canada... Lol) is the type of drama that makes CM staff seem like a joke.

TG Station unveiled the Digital Marines Colonial Aliens server. Seems to be using the latest code and is being hosted by MSO.

I don't think anything is keeping anyone here that doesen't want to play here. Go nuts, play on w/e server you want, SS13 is just a game after all.

It is not the latest code. It's the same code that the BR server had.

That's exactly what I think, and to be clear I'll probably play on both. Hell I'll probably go play on another varient server if it was sufficently unique and fun to play on but CM is and will still be my main server.

If you don't like CM, no one is forcing you to stay here and now you have tons of opportunity to go elsewhere and find the experiance you're looking for.

Honestly, the best thing to do right now to try and make up for some of the drama is to release the rest of the source to “encourage community involvement” and apologize for the “overzealous response” immediately after the leak occurred.

The code is out there, might as well make CM less of the “bad guy” and support people seeing and using it. You need some good PR, a gift and apology would be a good start.

This is a lot of drama to happen in a few months, could we tone it down? Take a break? Maybe just have a calm, normal server for a little while.

If this server doesn't up their game and fast, from a staff and dev perspective, every server running CM code is going to die a slow death including here. You really need to stop making weird threats to do with Fox and grandstanding, and start actively contributing to making the place better for everyone and to retain players and staff.

After the last two updates I am very glad the code got leaked.

Do the devs realize that we WANT to play on the OG Colonial Marines rather than a bootleg copy? Because these latest updates are driving people away moreso than encouraging them to stay.

Claiming that the majority of CM's playerbase stays for the fucking awful community and not because it's literally the only option is a BIG stretch.
