Well, keep in mind that Cortex Command was officially released in 2012, and it had been publicly in development since 2006. The height of this forum's popularity was around 2007, so... yeah, it's pretty quiet now. I don't know that it's anyone's fault, really — that's just what happens when a relatively small community runs out of things to talk about.

I have the game pirated, well yes, it's bad, but someday I'm going to buy it.

WAIT A ♥♥♥♥ SECOND

This is what's wrong with the community, nobody is buying the game, that's how it died out.

Funny story, I was playing with the 6 minute time limit demo till after I released the Void Walkers IIRC.

Cortex Command will still always be one of my favorite games tbh. It's got so many good things going for it. All the new toys that were added, the new game modes and such, just didn't really bring anything new to the table. What good is squad based gameplay advances when the game was most enjoyable going solo?

Ah well, I still come back not because I think somehow CC will get revitalized and I'll find time for it again, but because there's something nice about hopping online and seeing a names of people I've interacted with for a bunch of years. I'm too busy to be up to date with the community really anymore, but if my friends here are still able to find time to visit, then surely things must be ok for them. I find some comfort there.
