Workers & Resources: Soviet Republic website and Steam store page taken down by rogue fan
Developers of niche city-builder Workers & Resources: Soviet Republic, Slovakian studio 3Division, have claimed that a fan once respected member of the game’s community, has gone rogue and began attacking the game’s online presence, trying to get everything from trailers to the game’s website taken down.
According to the developers, this player had written a guide on a way to play the game more realistically, and while the 3Division had already been working on a game mode that did just that, the developers had agreed to add him to the game’s credits as a goodwill gesture given his prominence in the community.
However, 3Division say this player then started to abuse the YouTube report system issuing copyright strikes to one of their most helpful influencers. As a result of this behavior, 3Division withdrew their offer to officially thank him. There is no word yet if or when the website and Steam store page will be back up.
