A lot of people are going to find it amusing whenever a modder or a modding group starts talking in a grandoise way as if they've developed a cure for Covid instead of producing some pretend cars for a videogame. It only adds to the amusement when they threaten to withdraw those cars from any public release because of lapses in their own security, as if the very suggestion of this threat will be enough to send the sim world into a blind panic. It's been said before but many modders seem to place ridiculous importance on their own work... for everyone else it's just more content to try in an overcrowded market. Having hissy fits just makes you look daft, especially when that fury is directed at completely the wrong people.
Know what would have put BE Modding on people's radar with a positive spin? If you'd just said 'hope you like those leaked WiPs but they are very incomplete. The final releases will be even better. In the meantime please provide feedback on what you've seen'.
After all, you can't reverse a leak any more than you can put toothpaste back in the tube, so much better to suck it up and try to make it work in your favour. As things currently stand BE Modding have come across as immature, reactionary and more than a little bit up themselves, but it's not too late to turn that around.
And lest you forget: the leak didn't come from this forum.
you couldn't comment on that better
