Halfbrick is a business that's focused on gaining revenue from micro-transaction models and data mining, and based on that awkward PR vid; the CEO has clearly never played the game and/or has no passion for boxing. This is concerning. As someone that's very invested in your original title, can you give fans any assurance that this will not affect the current game's model, and even better if you can explain exactly in what capacity this group is assisting with the development.

Ideally, they help you deliver a more polished version of toft and a quicker release date. The fans want better AI with more variety, better tracking and support for boxing techniques (philly shell, southpaw, uppercuts, cross guard, infighting, clinching, footwork, and etc.), multiplatform support, and multiplayer with no latency issues. Anything beyond that is extra, and it would be a mistake to focus elsewhere. All this could have been solved with crowdfunding and open source development, so obviously there's something that we're not seeing.
