You know what? Screw you Sega. Tired of waiting for this game, I'm over it. I'll just stick with FFXIV for my MMO fix.

Yet Sega wonders why they struggle financially. Crap like this is why I stopped caring about Sega a long time ago.

Marcello3682d ago

Once again Sega make`s me facepalm. They always do this sort of thing, just make it impossible to play & pay for there games. They are very good at being customer unfriendly

nothing a little VPN bridge wont fix :D

the only question is now that if its an active tracker or if it just checks when you log on.....

Are_The_MaDNess3682d ago

all depends on the VPN..... can get sub 100ms on good servers in Japan and Korea when i connect to them from Norway.
not that it matters much in a MMO tho....

Agent_hitman3682d ago

Why you have to be so mean, Sega?.

You could just localized this game for additional profit..

Kenshin_BATT0USAI3682d ago

Not even localizing the game anymore. They already finished that. They literally just need to release it.

cleft53682d ago

That's crazy talk. Why would Sega actually want to make money and be successful.

CLOUD19833682d ago

Is it me or SEGA declare war on west by not allowing them to play their games & by not localize & release some of their games in US/EU? I don't know that's how it seems to me is there a reason behind that?

Sega sells Relic and will cut 240 jobs across UK studios

GamesIndustry.biz writes: "Relic is best known for the Company of Heroes and Dawn of War games, and recently developed the new Age of Empires for Microsoft. Relic will transition to an independent studio and will no-longer be part of the Sega group of studios.

The majority of the 240 job cuts are across Creative Assembly and Sega Europe, while there will be a ‘small number’ cut from Sega HARDLight. There was no mention of other Sega UK studios, including Two Point Studios and Sports Interactive."

Shame about Creative Assembly, they should have just been allowed to do an Alien Isolation sequel.

just_looken34d ago

It was that garbage coh 3 that did them in only a special team can make a sequel worse in every way even though it was a 10 year gap and the same era.

gold_drake35d ago

I hope they find new jobs in the industry soon.

Two Point Studios and Sports Interactive probably run on a shoe string budget so that fits into SEGA better lol

Sega had such a turbulent existence from the mid-90s to when they dropped out of console manufacturing entirely in 2001, it’s understandable if you’ve never heard of the Genesis Nomad.
