Placing this in the off-topic section as its pretty off-topic to MWO. In the spirit of the new glasnost that has broken out, permit me to point out a potential PR nightmare for you folks at PGI. It would appear that IGP is quietly disappearing from the scene, and taking with it all the money the Founders' put into MW Tactics. After listening carefully to the wonderful Town Hall meeting with Russ, I understand that the following is the contractual relationship schema with regards to MWT:
1) Microsoft owns the MW IP.
2) Microsoft awarded a general license for MW to PGI.
3) PGI in turn awarded a license to IGP to develop MWT.
4) Based on that license, IGP collected Founders money as well as further in-game purchases.
5) All of the signs point to the fact that IGP has acted deceptively for many long months now with regard to the development of MWT.
5a) Keeping the Blue Lizard logo on the website as developers for the game when in fact that contract was cancelled December 2013.
5b) Development was frozen since then with weird retread patches reiterating retired content from the game with the same bugs and design problems that caused them to be removed in the first place.
5c) The website has been down for well over a week with a sign saying "72 hours".
5d) Continuing to collect money knowing that the project was basically dead.
Now I fully understand that PGI is not necessarily financially liable for IGP's misdeeds. However, as one of the Founders who at this point has no recourse against IGP I would truly appreciate it if you could exercise your ethical responsibility as the license-holder for IGP and tell us exactly what is going on. At some point it seems to be obvious that IGP has to be breaking the contract they signed with you.
