Announcement:

Regrettably the time has come for me to announce MG's disaffiliation with the Expansion Forums.

Link for reference: http://ssf2expansions.motionforum.net/

Those of you who are familiar with the Expansion forums are probably aware that it has been around for years, and has transformed quite a bit since its inception. However there is one thing that hasn't changed, and that's the fact that the expansion forums are not run by MG in any shape or form.

Therefore, I am announcing today that officially MG no longer endorses the SSF2 Expansion Forums.

Please note that this will not affect our plans for expansion content. MG will have its own system for managing and distributing DLC after the full release of the game. But until then I am not offering any support for unofficial expansion content. There currently are no standards set for spriting expansion material, so I don't want to encourage it to the public before we have even set up a system for it, I hope you understand. It would be a shame to see a lot of wasted effort on sprites that don't necessarily meet our standards.

Anyway, be sure to check by every so often since we'll have more positive news to post soon.

I hope no one takes this personally, but this is meant to be a step forward in terms of our future plans for expansion content of the game. I don't want to see hard work on sprites go to waste, and I want to ensure the upmost quality and standards for SSF2.

Anyway, as I said in the news post, we'll have much more interesting posts coming soon so don't let this get you down ;)

This update is fine with me, as I don't care much about expansions right now.

So does this mean the the Forums is pretty much useless and there is no point in it now?

No. A lot of the devs are members on EF so they aren't entirely out of commission just yet. This could set them back though if this disaffiliation means the devs are quitting.

They disowned EF, thus all their sprites are rendered usless, therefore its purpose seems redundant. But we may not know every detail, I would like someone to clear what's the future of the EF.

So what, there is no reason for this?
So you guys shut down two forums and killed a community to end up throwing it away in the end? For no reason?


You must be freakin' kidding me.

Some don't seem to understand:

What's basically happening is, Cleod's saying "You can do whatever you want, but I'm not gonna pat you on the back and say that's how it's done, because we don't know how it will be done yet, and I don't want people confusedly thinking we do."

That's what I'm reading into it, at least.

All sounds well to me. I've always thought those forums were rather unnecessary until the game launched.
