De devoloper van Hellgate: London en Mythos heeft zijn deuren gesloten en zet alle medewerkers op "overbodig".

Flagship bit off way more than they could chew and made a lot of development and structural mistakes in how they went about things. They had a lot of big dreamers on staff, but not enough nitty-gritty people who knew how to get poo poo done. It sucks, but that's life I guess

aldus een ex-devoloper van Flagship Studios.

I think it's less that they aimed too high than that they tried to aim that high and do it quickly, and they didn't do anything the easy way. It was like picking everything that's hard to do in a game, and then putting it on a brand-new company (two of them, really) with people who hadn't worked together before.


Wat er gaat gebeuren met Hellgate: Londen is nog niet duidelijk. Als niemand deze MMO gaat overnemen valt het in de handen van de "US money firm" Comerica.

Mythos zal echter overgenomen worden door het Koreaanse HanbitSoft, die de game weer beter gaat maken.
