I got a system message there's a new version of the Launchpad but I don't see any note in the Forum.
What is it? An April 1 Fool?

Edit note: in the title read "or" instead of "of". Sorry for bad typing

My very strong intuition says it is an April Fools joke....lol....I truly do not know this for sure though....

Just follow the link, its Daybreak folks are getting the announcement ready.


P.S. Link is not broken, they just haven't updated it yet. DNS has to propagate or something.

Have a curious qyestion about this, because it has me cunfused.

SWGEmu has joined with Daybreak Games Company LLC, which used to be Sony Online Entertainment LLC... i get that part. My question is this: If Sony Online owned SWG to begin with, which means Daybreak now owns the copyright for it, why would they join with a group running a reverse engineered version of a game they already own?

just curious is all.

thanks

Thank you Vlada.
But all I get in the link is the migration. I have no access at the other linked page http://goo.gl/rkbEnn . It's saying to me "connection error, cannot load page".

Anyway I take there is an actual new version of the Launchpad

The link on that page does not work where I am. Say: Server not found.

Other than that, I am not sure if should be scarred or happy. What does it mean for the SWGEmu?
