Just to sum up on Jolt...

...about how much they give a **** about planetarion, this is quote from their 'Planetarion section' describing the game (that is hidden away nicely in a sub menu, along with one advertising banner, the only two things I could see on their entire sight about it...):

Quote:
From the Joke that is Jolt
The Zikonian pillagers storm planets, stealing technology, wiping out ships and harvesting precious asteroids.

The Cathaar utilise EMP technology to stun their foe and capture asteroids, supported by a screen of deadly units.

The Xandathrii, cloaked and almost undetectable, raid swiftly and silently.

Stalwart Terran commanders gouge holes through fleets to achieve their bounty.
No wonder PaX has failed in spectacular fashion, the so called investors don't give two ****s. Thanks Prince, thanks Jolt.

I doubt they put up such **** on purpose. They have to make a profit out of their investments like any company (I think they are even paying crew sallary now?) To make such louzy advertisement is just an example of bad management nothing more, nothing less I bet.

Its impossible to understand. Jolt takes over PA. Who are working on a new game... Why the fk dont they wana get involved more in PA. They are hosting the stuff etc. And they pay people to get things ready and running.

I would fking work my ass off if I had a company that took over a game to make it succeed... And wtf is the Pa-crew doing about it?

Shame; if they got a sallery they could be forced to perform on a certain level and Jolt would have to support them to at least break even. They could still get a % of the turnover ofc.

well i dont know about most folks, but i put in ~ 8hrs a day, if not more in #support, doing support requests, manual updates, support system updates, trying to make the #support team better etc.

Spinner certainly works > 14hrs a day if not more, the guy seems to never sleep
