As I am sure many members on here are aware there was another leak of content thanks in part again to Mr. Anthony Eignauer/MonsterJamSeriesTV/WildThing101/whatever other alias's he uses, has been spreading like wildfire around to all of the wonderful people that have been banned off of this site. Video after video pop up on youtube and after a few days to figure it all out (who obtained the leak, what leaked, how it leaked and the overall damage) there has been a common theme between us content makers who were trying to push the level of our work for everyone to bring a real life representation into a virtual format. To have yet another issue with someone going to extreme measures to get half finished content that sadly does not even remotely showcase what we had in store, it is with heavy hearts it has been unofficially decided that V5 will be abandoned. Now before people fly off the rocker completely there is some light at the end of the tunnel. The content creators that have helped with the project can choose to release their content out to he public if they like, be it in full trucks or in parts. This means the community in whole will be able to produce their own content (much like MTM2 for those that were around during that time).
This is not a fun post to make, it took me several attempt to try and word it in a positive light, fact is we were already being the 8 ball with so much stuff to do and almost all the staff (minus me currently on disability from work) have school, jobs, lives outside their computers, meant that we were facing quite the climb. This game, no this community was born to be a hub for people that shared the same passion about this sport, but in a virtual setting. For a person to be so physically and emotionally wrapped up in a video game to go through the measures needed to facilitate a mess like this, not just once, but twice? I have seen some pretty big acts of desperation in my 20 some odd years on this planet, but this is one of the most extreme cases I have ever personally dealt with.
It is a hollow and bitter feeling no doubt but at the end of the day, it's just another bump in the road. So lets look to the horizon and not the ditch.
