GunZ is closing down - R.I.P

[GzFKoron]

Just stumbled across this thread on Aeria Games. And it is official, GunZ is closing down. Kinda sad and it seems like it is end of an era.

GunZ Service Announcement | Gunz

Dear GunZ Players,

We regret to inform you that unfortunately GunZ will be closing on May 31st, 2013.

This decision was not taken lightly and only decided on after thorough discussion with Aeria's internal teams and MAIET. We apologize for these unfortunate circumstances.

We know this is sad news and can be frustrating. The closure of a game is always hardest for us at Aeria as we recognize the community's dedication towards the game but regrettably games can't last forever. We hope you enjoy your final month on GunZ as best you can before moving on.

Server Shutdown: 05/31/2013 @ 5:00 PM PST
Forums Removed: 06/31/2013 @ 3:00 PM PST


As a thank you to our customers we have decided to return 100% of the AP spent on GunZ to players within the final 30 days, starting from May 1st, 2013 until May 31st, 2013. However, because of the large nature of rebates, please allow up to 7-10 business days after May 31st, 2013 for the AP to be rebated.

I was pulling a joke, but GunZ really is dead for over years now. It was fun back then and I actually find it kind of sad that it's shutting down.

If I'm not mistaken, you were also involved with GunZ development back in the days (2009-2011) so you should know what I'm talking about.

Who the fucking care, And why do you think they will release the source if they can to sell the source to another company?

Is it true that all servers close if Aeria Games GunZ closes?

If yes, why is it so?

[mattyzpsycho]

Is it true that all servers close if Aeria Games GunZ closes?

If yes, why is it so?

is it true, because all contracts to do with maiet will be terminated causing all gunz servers to close with the deadline, if they do not close within the dead line maiet has the appropriate rights to take action and possibly sue the one refusing to close down the server.

Okay.
So basically another thing to do with law and copyrights.

So because Aeria Gamers decided not to host GunZ anymore, MAIET is starting to terminate all contracts with other hosters? Apart from the fact that a contract can't simply be terminated that's just bullshit.

i was trying to make them believe something that isnt fact. it kinda worked for a little while i guess lol.

[bugme]

So it's not the end of GunZ?

[Linear88]

That's sad. It was fun while it lasted though.
