ED? Who is this ED guy anyways!?

[Flagrum]

I stumbled upon this short remark

... the EDGE team is a pretty impressive group of people, ...

and that sparked an idea:

 

I would love to get to know them better. Well, the whole ED crew, tbh.

 

I can't really remember where I saw this, but I seem to remember that some sort of small documentary was made a few years ago? Some photos of their office, people sitting at their computers, working. Or was that in one of RRGs KS videos? Hrm. Anyway, I would love to learn a tad bit more about the people behind it all.

 

Is there any chance we could get something like that? Maybe in some form of small series of articles in the spirit of "Meet the Team". Some photos, some words of who does what.

 

I realize this could cost some effords to make, but maybe just as a lose sequence over a couple of months ... to keep us entertained. And to keep us away from all the inept muttering and moaning that we usually fall back to when we are bored ... ;o). I really think this could help to put things into perspective - to see that it is not an anonymous "evil" company, but that it is about people - like you and me.

This is from 5 years ago. Like any company, ED undergo staff fluctuations. Some people have been on for a long time (c0ff e.g., dunno if Olgerd is still on the team, haven't heard from him in ages), others have come and go.

Yeah, I know - and would understand if not everyone would want to get a picture of him made.

 

And on a larger scale ... well, thats why I brought this up and ask nicely! ;o)

I get that, I have worked for big and small companies. Btw, Olgerd is still active on the Russian forum.

What I want to know is... We always here about the ED development team being located in Moscow, but is there a team somewhere in the US or any other locations? Isn't Wags in the US? Just curious.

[sobek]

There's supposedly a team in Minsk. AFAIK Matt isn't employed by ED but by TFC.

Situation in 2009, Jurassic period so...:

The staff includes experienced engineers, managers and artists who have worked in the military, software development and aerospace industries."
