Wouldn't it be greated if we could mod the gamecode? to make the game run more smoothly? and add in new and improved features like submenus for buying mode? so i ask you do you think we should try an OS Cortex Command thats just a basic game with like 1 map for testing? |

First off, open sourcing a commercial game is retarded. Secondly, what do you mean by OS Cortex Command? I seriously doubt you could turn CC into an operating system. If you mean a barebones version then that already exists. |

It isn't going to happen. Trust me. Even if it would, Data is out of touch and could not release the source code. |

When he said "OS" he meant Open Source, as in FOSS "Free and Open Source Software," not as in Operating System. Commercial products have not been shown to be a useful thing to Open-Source, and the only examples I can think of were even smaller than CC. That said, I would appreciate the ability to buy access to the source, even if releasing derivatives was strictly prohibited. It's not gonna happen in a million years. |

We can't do anything. Data is going to sell the engine source to people much like unreal does with it's engine source code. The closest thing you'd get would be a SDK, which you've already practically got what with the whole modding thing. |

ok , well that idea went down the drain is there anyway to contact data to get him to add a huge amount of items and weapons and units and modules and basicly improve the game? |

http://blog.wolfire.com/2010/05/Open-source-software-is-not-always-freeware Data is on pretty good terms with the Wolfire guys, so it isn't necessarily as unlikely as everyone says. That said, I still can't really see it happening, but you never know. |

It is when he's talked about selling the source as a possible form of secondary revenue... |
