Crowd sourcing the funds to buy the game as an investment

[Animl-AW]

Leary to ask

What do some think a reasonable price is for a just buy the game method?

May be a viable option.

Longevity of games that do?

Would that just force it to go to train wreck mini servers and no Massive Multiplayer server?

Look
Anytime someone repeats a multi-repeat convo/post that has been extensively addressed each time, as if the past repeats never happened…

1) they have cognitive issues to process, retain, recall
2) use a repeat beaten path to conflict or give negative attention
3) drinks or 420 too much

Yet all can be true at the same time.
Stop with the repeats and ya won’t be accused of doing it with intent.

Of all the people to talk about repeating things...

Very few games keep a subscription model any more.

Utoh. I think somebody said this before. Beware of the repeat police. You may be accused of:

1) they have cognitive issues to process, retain, recall
2) use a repeat beaten path to conflict or give negative attention
3) drinks or 420 too much

Like the repeats of how DCS is the spawn of satan and anyone even mentioning that game here should go away forever?

Don’t you have green lasers on mars to check into?

After reading all this FUSS I withdraw my suggestion and will enjoy watching this game slowly die instead

I just don’t think many here have that kind of money to throw at it

Any subject can go south on bbs.

Very cool and a compelling idea to me. What language(s) do high school students start out with these days? My guess is Python and maybe Java?

I learned a bit of BASIC back in high school and I wished I'd kept at it. Instead, I opted for a course called "Baseball Science" which was secretly mandatory for the baseball team and taught by our coach. I honed my Charlie Lau batting principles and learned to chew tobacco like Rod Carew and Tony Gwynn instead of learning something worthy.

Good on ya for getting the students involved with businesses allowing them to gain real life skills and experience.

I honestly have no idea.  That department is on the complete opposite side of the building from me.  I just know we have it.  Our STEM program also works with local industries (Rough Country being a big one).  We have roughly 1,200 students, and at least half of them will graduate with some sort of certification in computer science, STEM, or a trade.
