Honestly, 250k within a quarter was what I would have considered a success. So to move nearly 800,000 in under a month is crazy.We'll be finalizing our roadmap in mid January, but it is safe to say that this kind of result will be having a very positive effect on that roadmap."

Bakercompany86 347 Posted January 5, 2014 Oh look, it's this thread again. Yeah.... The thing is OP, we don't know if they are or are not hiring new coders at the moment. We're not and should not be privy to their hiring practices. The total revenue they've generated is $24,699,270 (ish). 823,329 alpha copies sold so far. Lets say Steam takes 30% of this (rough guess). That leaves $17,289,489. Pretty good chunk of change I'd say. We don't know how much BI is keeping for their coffers. But I'd say plenty of that is probably going to be put towards the development of the game, be it new developers or what have you. Basically, don't jump to conclusions. I'm sure they want more people to work on debugging. The community has reported thousands of bugs, I bet they don't want 5 guys working on that. But we may never know, just have faith. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EDIT: I beat SmashT, whooo! First response to that thread for the win.... made me lol :D I definitely want the dev team to take a few hundred of that awesome earning to go out and have some beers. I for one am very much enjoying the game even in it's present state (call me a fanboy, you'd be right, except it's fanman). Also....who is Terrorviktor? I keep seeing you pop up on threads posting in context that would make me think you're a developer...but you carry no forum status stating this. Por que no?

I'm just a nobody with far to much time on my hands. :) EDIT: Devs have purple names by the way. Only consider whatever I (or anyone else) write speculation unless shown a source, like that reddit post above!
