Update on the Mane6 open letter
Quote:1) The game's not cancelled, we're still working on it
2) We'll still be attending Canterlot Gardens.
3) We're not stopping anyone from playing the leak. Just bear in mind that's it's an unfinished version of the game, which happened to be leaked right before we got to a major content update. You can have fun playing the game if you want to. We won't be linking the download, nor giving technical support or taking gameplay feedback relative to the build, due to the fact that as of tonight, it is an already OUTDATED patch.
4) BSUs won't be gone forever. We'll just have to make adjustments on our scheduling for updates, as whatever we -could- show you or highlight in the next couple of weeks is already present in the leak. The leak basically knocked out our couple-of-weeks buffer on content that we wanted to present, and our current work for the past couple of weeks is of the not-so-interesting kind, which won't make for BSUs.
5) A clarification, with a slight misphrasing above (sorry guys): We're not going to be starting or mantaining an OPEN alpha, beta or QA testing program. We'll be starting a closed, internal QA again (where, obviously, none of the testers of our past QA will be present if we can't find the leaker). Just as the previous interal QA, we'll be handpicking our subjects, this time, however, a bit more carefully than in the past. No applications will be taken for this QA program, as we can't ascertain the credibility and trust of people mailing applications to us.
