Gutted OP since it was old information. Here's the new info since people have started to gain access:


https://midnightsociety.com/blog/roadmap-la-founders-event-and-beyond


quote:

Witness the Birth of Project Moon
Our first game, “Project Moon” is a vertical extraction shooter (VES).

Our high-level gameplay goals are to capture the essence of arena shooter level design with the scale and scope of battle royale player counts, and the session-to-session gameplay mechanics of extraction-based shooters.



quote:

SnapshotCL1000 – Player Hideout
The first Snapshot represents two key elements of the game: the first weapon and the first playspace. This experience was designed to elicit feedback on topics like recoil, balance, reload, accuracy, etc.

Time to practice and showcase your skills! We’re offering three different Shooting Range experiences throughout the Player Hideout. Anywhere you see a red button, you’ll be able to activate a unique target practice, each designed to hone a unique skill with the first assault rifle. Stats on your performance are shared and stored locally, share them with the community to compete for the best accuracy, time, headshots, or scores.

Every six weeks this play space will continue to grow and expand, introducing new elements tied to key new features and mechanics from each build.

so yeah, Doc founded a new gaming studio. it's called the Midnight Society. one of his partners is @fourzerotwo, and if you remember who that is, it's Robert Bowling. and if you still don't know who that is, he was the community manager for infinity ward back during the MW2/3 days.


Guy Beahm aka DrDisrespect




Robert Bowling




Quinn DelHoyo





i don't know much about the Quinn fella, but a quick google search led me to credits for:

Halo 5
Gears of War 3
Gears of War: Judgement

Wow, that’s fast. I didn’t expect anything from this for a year at least. Will be curious to see what this is all about.

He was actually with Sledgehammer Games. If you remember, MW3 was both developed by IW and Sledgehammer. Pretty sure this was related to the Jason West and Vince Zampella fiasco with Activision after MW2 released. They took half the dev team with them when they founded Respawn/Titanfall/Apex Legends, and needed a team to develop MW3. Incomes Sledgehammer.

If you watch his streams often, you’ll know that he brags about how he “designed half the maps for Advanced Warfare” (a Sledgehammer game). That’s also true buy the way.

This seems like an NFT scam.

It absolutely is, if they ever do make a game, it will be awful. It takes a huge dev team to make a modern day FPS.

if it's a scam, that would have to be the biggest "frick you" to his entire community as he walked away from streaming.

Agreed, doesn't seem like a very logical or financially smart thing to do. But if he's surrounded by enough yes men, maybe some of them convinced him he can actually start a game studio and make a decent FPS with peanuts. Maybe they bought a cancelled IP and are gonna reskin it? Maybe they have a farm of korean's working on the dev? What's worrying is i've heard more about NFT's than about the actual game.
