Hey beancounters and investors, wadda think?
cost of production = $8,000,000
lines of code = 100,000
That figures to be $80/line of code. And of course, more than 1 year after release and still a junk.
Maybe somebody needs to be fired.

Funny you should mention that as the original people who built CloD are long gone... next...

So, the job is done. Clod has been "built". Luthier, not part of original team. Ok, thanks for the information. I was not aware.

Your mind reading abilities need work.

No, really I see it as a wounded animal. Put the thing out of it's misery and move on. For $80 per line of code, your programmers had better be able to deliver hefty profit margins to the investors and not put the company's reputation and prestige in the dumpster a year and half after release of highly anticipated game that ends up being half baked. The guy in charge gets the donald trump in the real world.

Bean counting. Originally, I bought the game in hopes that it would become as advertised. Now, it's just about mercy kill.
