If I understand correctly (based on what Entenkiller has said), these maps are "data garbage" which was pressed on the game DVDs. So the files actually are still available - many of us even have them...

The irony is that there is quite a bit of rather polished content in the game files which is not used, and could probably be built upon to create new content. And I'm not just talking about the areas...

Since this point is somewhat unclear, let me clarify it. The below xls contains all of FC's reported revenues and operating expenses on a quarterly basis (since Q3/2004, prior figures are not...

Funcom just gained another 6 months for its "strategic review".

Interesting news, thanks! Looks like things might get interesting in the next few months...

I think it's pretty simple. The B2P model for TSW means that FC need to market the game to make money through new box sales or item shop purchases. The sub model for AoC means that AoC provides a...

Maintenance mode - sure, Cirith was pretty clear about it (if anyone still had doubts based on the update cycle). Hemorrhage - population is certainly dwindling, but it is doing so more slowly than...

Note that AoC has been consistently undervalued by Funcom:

In 2013, AoC's book value was only USD 247k, but FC noted in their annual report that "the impairment test performed at the end of the...
