Or will the original uploaders be the ones fighting-off kimbo slice. in the prison showers?
Well...it really is up to you and is an ethical/character question that only you can answer. Of course, should you choose one course of action over the other, don't post screenshots and reports....admitting to being in possession of stolen property can never be a good thing.
how has anybody here ever "paid' for the right to the code? yeah i played it for thousands of hours, so if i decided to make a map or mod i now 'own' the original gaming engine?
thats literally like saying i bought a 1999 model toyota carolla camry(like i did) and say putting in a new CD player, speakes and mag wheels,new all non factory stuff, so now i own ALL the old interlectual property, and can copy and sell it? Obviously nobody knows about copyright or interlectual rights who posts such fantasy!
yes after 11 years i feel like i own a little piece of CC,but im not dumb enough to think a company will give me all there original codes,tools.wake the fuck up people.
i dont care about a code or so
I said ... COI, WAR, Dday are all updated game.
Updated game what coming cos CC still alive trought the entiere community.
I'm all right to buy CC6, i dont see why i had to buy any Update when we give
to developper the opportunity to releasde official update of older CC.
Does i have to remind you than CC developper released No official patch for approximatly
each CC...
Tout est possible ... il faut juste connaitre quand.

Because without money, there's no CC6?
It's not, like ST3T got those rights and all the stuff for free because Atomic thought that it would great if someone would make patches for their games - Matrix had to pay for them.
M'i stupid to think than S3T or anyother will work on CC6 for free?
Does i said that?
I doubt than Matrix count about any Rerelase sell to make the money needed for CC6.
U miss just than, CC will see a 6Th opus cos, CSO, CCS, and many other small site,
a lot of modder keep CC alive. What does CC official developper give to them?
Does they made official patch to correct the game than everyone using?
NO
But they work on something new than everyone from CC community will must to pay
to get a possible free bug game.

NO
Except that there's a problem: while it's true that the CC modding community kept CC alive, it's not like it didn't mod for its own enjoyment, isn't it?
Matrix is a business. That guy clearly said that they had to pay money to get the rights to CC and now they want a some of that money back, like any sane company. Eliminating a big part of potential customers by releasing a free patch for someone else's game made with code that they paid for would be borderline stupid.

Which doesn't really matter as providing funds is usually a publisher's job. But then there's a difference between funding a game just after buying it from a mainstream publisher and funding a game after some of the costs of obtaining the licence was paid off.
It may be a difference between the project being a big black hole that eats tons of money and finally gets axed and the cost of a project being acceptable and the finished new game being released.
I guess, when you live with a woman who get kids, u take the wife and the kids.
Not only a part.
Matrix bought the CC licence, so they bought the community as well.
Taking care of your money is human.
Taking care of who will give you your money isnt so good?
For me, Matrix cant bought CC licence and working only on updated game.
They have to see closely to what they bought and what need a support.
Of course working on a CC older opus patch means, working for free as they cant
sell it. But Working on this kind of stuff will bring "honnor" of Matrix.
But never mind. I hope nothing from them

What is your beef with CC4/5? A lot of people think the mini game or strat layer makes it a better game. If Sulla would tell us I bet COI has outsold CCMT by a huge margin, mainly because CCMT is less of a game and more a training tool. The CC community has always been split between CC2, CC3 and CC4/5 and people would like to see the re-releases or CC6 move in the direction of their favorite. Well WAR is a gold version/re-release of CC4 which had a strat layer so quit complaining about. Just like the others should stop complaining about the Matrix/S3T approach as they have decided what they are going to do so let them execute their plan and vote with your dollars on the re-releases and the eventual CC6 if/when it comes….
Spot on Darren!! completly agree.
I remember the Zone days...and some that are stil here,posting in this thread even..wishing the bugs in CC5 were fixed,and even spouted that they would even be willing to pay for it!! me being one of those guys!..Well those things have been worked on...Ill even go as far to say,it was the most important thing on the *to do list* esp as far as the ones obligated by contrat to produce!!!
Everything else (or most of)that has been done to this rerelease,(present&future)has been done by guys that have no obligation whatsoever to any of these rerelease contrats!!! They do it only because they are trully dedicated fans of the CC series!!Ive witnessed this personally as a beta tester(and for the record,the only pay i get is a free copy of the game)(If its sold for $40 divided by 100dres of hours...well you do the math) and thats just as a tester...most of the development team...Graphics/Programing/Data/...have also been doing things for free..Why? for the same reason as me..most are long time dedicated fans of the CC series! and are only trying to make CC a better game!! and IMO have done a steller job so far,and only to get better the more the work on it.
Some say give us CC6,feck the rereleases..some say why do i have to pay for upgrades to a game i already payed for..some say why hasnt the code been released to the public cause is such a old game..
Will it be completly bug free or perfect...NO..name me one game that didnt need a patch or 2?...Even WIndows XP/Vista has bugs and patches..and supposedly made by the experts!! Stop nit pickin!
Well for CC to move forward the code had to be bought and payed for.
Why wasnt the code freely released to the public...because thier isint any game comparable to it on the market..its unique and in a class of its own!
This is my opinion not factual,the money spent on the code,has to be recouped first and formost..for CC6(new engine) to become a reality,one of 2 things need to happen...profit from rereleases or a profound interest in the game by gamers or both..think about it..they are only going to do this if thiers a profit to be made...if not,,why would they do it!!

You want me to post the link to the original post linking the files OR the links to the files themsleves?
The torrent link has gone, I requested them to remove all illegal files from that uploader and a search of the torrent for CC now only brings up what I would expect, old CC versions, CoI etc! The military stuff and new beta builds have gone!
