So it looks to me that they freaked out on BigFry because he was rightfully warning people against this game. Also, can we talk about how cringe the name "Project L33T" is?
That proposed NDA may even be worse than said in the Video. Depending on the exact wording, If the game were to be released as Early Access, it may not be counted as 'publicly released'. That would potentially extent that gag order indefinetly, if the game would be abandoned before a 1.0 version.
Legally speaking, publicly available EA-release is without a shadow of doubt "publicly released", and Holmguard would die on that hill if it went to court. That is because the publicity of a release is completely independent issue from the game's completeness. But considering the BS they are and have been pulling, I think they would use that to strong arm Fry into submission. Highly doubt they'd have guts to go to the court with that, though, and as Sid said BigFry is not a small channel anymore and not forceable into silence without a court order.
i swear, how does no one know of the Streisand effect. every time those Dirty devs keep getting called out for their bullshit, they always resort to the same thing and it only makes more people aware.
Because, to be the level of unaware these people are to even try this requires thinking they are above any punishment. Thus, they believe what happened to **others** won't happen to **them** because they're better or smarter than everyone else.
I can just feel the anger whenever Sid discusses instance of a company trying to bully content creators into silence. I find that admirable, not only does that strike me as you being someone I would be honored to call a friend, but it is so refreshing seeing someone keeping fellow content creator's back. Thanks for your continued efforts Sid and cheers!
Hearing Sergai's name again and the failure of a Zombie game WarZ reminded me of TotalBiscuit's video regarding the entire thing being a scam, so it's not a surprise that he ended up in the spotlight again.
Yes!!! If you need help with info about War Gaming let me know. I used to play World of Tanks and Warships all the time. There's so much stuff that you could easily make at least an hour long dirty devs video.
knowing how to ignore something and letting your ego / narcissism take over to ight it are two completely different things. Like the joke goes "I had the right to remain silent, but I didn't have the ability."
I feel you may have missed a chilling possibility in their letter/email to BigFry when you focussed on the NDA at around the 9:50 mark, I'm talking about where they offer BF to "play and assess it first hand IN THE COMPANY OF ONE OF OUR LEAD DEVELOPERS.". Now I'm unsure as to what nationality these people are, but judging by their names my main concerns would be a) on what floor is their development office? and b) is the computer the demonstration is to be played on placed anywhere near any dodgy open windows?
Oh! The War Z guy who I think also worked on Big Rigs way back when! I already ignored the game due to the name alone, but this just makes it all the more absurd. Also the image inserts for Holmgard games got me laughing far more than it probably should have. Good work as usual, Sid.
TIL SidAlpha knows a lot of (and is currently using) Microsoft 365 Azure. Nothing screams the word confidence when you have someone who knows what they're talking about.
Well, I configured the tenancies for over 200 businesses that ranged from 10 people up to 1200 people per business with a wide range of infrastructure needs. So I MIGHT know a little bit.
WarZ was the first game on Steam to ever be delisted due to fraudulent advertising before losing the name to a trademark dispute. Titov has always been a scumbag.
Great video explaining everything revolving this game and company. I have yet to see one of these projects fair well that try silencing those who are sharing their concerns. It never works out. Also, be aware that this team is actively taking down comments and messages on their channel and elseware that bring up anything about the BigFry situation or deleting comments. Spread the word because these projects should never be pulling this stuff on the people who support and critique them. Sick video dude, subbed and liked.
Ah the classic weaponized dmca and defamation lawsuit threat combo. Hard to believe it's making a comeback after all this time! I felt like it had stopped for a time with all the coverage such activities garnered.
Sergei Titov feuding with TH-camrs and the Sweet Baby Inc stuff is convincing me time is a flat circle and we’re back to 2014 again. Too bad Steam doesn’t have the same general quality control they had in the early 2010s.
This is about as open-and-shut a case as one can get. I'm curious about a potential Dirty Devs episode on Wargaming. I used to be an avid player of another of their titles, World of Warships, before their practices chased me off. I'm curious what can be dug up and explained about them. Since you mentioned them and all.
DMARC, DKIN, SPF now MTA-STS. All security options for trying to secure the worst designed messaging tech ever. Still makes me happy to hear someone else talk about them for a change ;o) I have even more respect for you Mr. Alpha.
It has nothing to do with gamer per se, but some people don't handle criticism at all. There are plenty of examples from all kinds of careers that have vain, narcissistic, self obsessed persons who cannot take someone not liking everything they do. You just happen to be watching (I assume) a channel that part of it's production uses time to focus on bad behaviors that some game developers do. You can find channels out there dedicated to finding cops that don't follow the law, channels focusing on drivers not following the law etc.
@@SidAlpha If you want any info, I can give you some. :) Their forums is full of censorship, the monetization is among the worst I've seen, and the bias in the game is really strong (despite them calling it realistic, it isn't). In my Steam review, I called it "Worse Torture" because it really is just that bad. And at the end I concluded my review "I'm a nurse, and I now diagnose myself as mentally ill for playing this ♥♥♥♥." It's been quite a stain on the simulation community TBH, as their aggressive marketing, terrible business practices, and very little competition has basically given them a monopoly over more "basic" simulation games that aren't purely arcade style like Ace Combat (DCS and IL-2 typically being too deep for the average gamer).
Part of me wants to play a drinking game with how much the images for Holmgard Games show up in this video. Fortunately, the other part of me likes having a healthy liver.
I have to keep reminding myself youre talking about Hoomgard and not Battlestate. Especially when Holmgard's company logo is eerily similar to an older Battlestate logo (wings). This feels like something Nikita Buyoman would do imo
I think I know some people who can take down Holmgard Games though they will drag the WHOLE Company through court and it'll cost Holmgard Games a lot of money when the people I know do an investigation into that company, not to mention Holmgard Games seems like a scam company that wants to kill other games or release a game and then kill the company itself to start a new company
Also add in Last Man Standing which was a Battle Royale version of WarZ. As well the WarZ current games (Infestation Survivor Stories, Infestation Battle Royale, and Infestation The New Z) are *exactly* the same executables. 3 games on Steam right now all the same game that install to different directories but under different names, totally against the Steam TOS. So we're up to about 15 versions of WarZ now.
On the other note, Titov's career is really weird - he went from being a technical director on "League of Legends" to the whole War Z and its subsequent clones and now to a gaming VC fund. Yet another example of gaming industry's professional fall from grace.
@@IdleCommentatorYeah, they had to retract it after they fucked around and found out by poking the hornet's nest. Maybe if they hadn't done that, none of this shit would've happened. Food for thought.
Just curious When covering the dirty devs Do you look at stuff that’s current or ongoing or would you be willing to look at something that occurred almost a year ago? The reason I’m bringing this up is because there was an incident with a pretty large community that is still talked about this day I think, bringing this up would help add further advice to keep people away from the developers and the games they’re making
Told a streamer this, and he went ballistic too. I'm not surprised this guy keeps rearing his ugly head time and time again. He's like HYDRA but for the video game industry on zombies +/- survival genre of games.
Dude WHY are your videos not showing up on my feed. YT is screwing you over. Sorry if this is really old news for you but I just wanted to voice my support. You are loved, don't forget it
Sergei Titov, that's a name i didn't hear in many many years. Oh yeah since all the WarZ Fiasco lmao. I mean, im surprised i didn't hear more about that guy to be honest.
@@SidAlpha probably right but the best part (except for Fry’s picture) is that they were using the Arktosentertainment email, how stupid can you be haha
Not surprised the bum's behind NewZ are in the light for doing another scam game... Learned first hand with Infestation Survivor Stories and only played NewZ thinking it was a new game and it wasn't. This "new" game is starting to pick up speed as far as hype within a few big streamers on Twitch thinking it would be the greatest game but even then they're showing concerns. The thing is, it's just someone's take on something, watch the footage of the in-game weapon customization, pulled from NewZ, BF2042 and a bunch of other games. Then you look at only bits and bobs of this or that and it's not really unique as far as I'm concerned. Then folks start rumbling around it being a scam game and then the devs ego's start to show.
GreyZone warfare looks to be in the same boat as this game... An EFT "clone"... nothing original, pulls bits from this game, pulls some of that from EFT, add dragons breath ammo from CoD, and helicopters though I assume that's for infil/exfil parts of the game/match... *YAWN*

I don’t remember the last time I saw something as unique-looking as CSAT from Arma 3 or the RX4 Storm and CROSS-COM from Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter.
TH-cam and or the creators need to pursue false dmca in court since it is illegal. All it will take is a couple lawsuits for filing false dmca claims for that shit to stop. Pretty sure intimidation and blackmail is illegal too.
Maybe the takedown request should come with a warning that the TH-camr whose video you're flagging will receive the name and address of the person filling the form so they can be reported for perjury more readily. It's not fair that the person submitting the form is protected while the counterclaim sends the counterclaimer's details straight to the potential abuser. It's been abused several times now.
TH-cam ain't spending money on that 😅 Even if they knew they would Auto-Win they would still not doing it 😂 & the Fake DMCA are Basically Anonymous So God Luck spending all your money in trying to bring them to court 😢
Haha, long time no see Comrade Titov. ❤ After spending hundreds of hours in WarZ/Infestation, Romero’s Aftermath, and Shattered Skies my anus is ready for yet another ride! 😂
Its not ok what you are doing here... not at all. If Games Fund has a person like that on their board... then you HAVE and MUST also put shade on them. They need to explain themselves.
2:05 WOT… Wargamming, 1C the other company who had their hands in Caliber, etc… and Gaijin (all RU based companies) are the rudest and laziest I’ve ever met….
Never guess who published that big rigs for titov.. Hint: they published 3 of the worst games of the year in 2023 Its like its all one big happy family of scam products 🤣
@@SidAlphaI think YT staff is running these two. The banners stay the same and if their algorithm can scan video then it can easily do the same to a static picture. Considering they have been in operation for 14+ months now, and YT tends to only take about 8 months before they finally take action after a few hundred thousand reports, things have changed. At least this one is moronically easy to spot (both text and thumbnail).
@@EnsignRedshirtRicky It's common security practice for services with large user bases to ban many bots and fix many vulnerabilities at the same time, randomly and without warning rather than doing them one by one and the bot makers knowing exactly which process or vulnerability got banned so they know exactly what and where to work around, leaving the bot makers guessing and giving them more work to do on their end to work around the fixes helps slow them down even if it looks like inaction on the service provider's part

So it looks to me that they freaked out on BigFry because he was rightfully warning people against this game. Also, can we talk about how cringe the name "Project L33T" is?
It's pretty damn cringe.
Even without those very important connections, the name alone sounds like a scam. It gives off the vibe of "hello, fellow kids."
What would the name even mean? Like, it seems like a scam if this is the official name they choose
The moment they falsely dmca’d they validated all criticism. Fuck em
They should del33t the game.

TH-cam and or the creators need to pursue false dmca in court since it is illegal. All it will take is a couple lawsuits for filing false dmca claims for that shit to stop. Pretty sure intimidation and blackmail is illegal too.
Maybe the takedown request should come with a warning that the TH-camr whose video you're flagging will receive the name and address of the person filling the form so they can be reported for perjury more readily. It's not fair that the person submitting the form is protected while the counterclaim sends the counterclaimer's details straight to the potential abuser. It's been abused several times now.
TH-cam ain't spending money on that
😅
Even if they knew they would Auto-Win they would still not doing it
😂
& the Fake DMCA are Basically Anonymous
So God Luck spending all your money in trying to bring them to court
😢
Haha, long time no see Comrade Titov. ❤
After spending hundreds of hours in WarZ/Infestation, Romero’s Aftermath, and Shattered Skies my anus is ready for yet another ride! 😂
Its not ok what you are doing here... not at all. If Games Fund has a person like that on their board... then you HAVE and MUST also put shade on them. They need to explain themselves.
This reminds me of sweet baby inc
dead on arrival
2:05 WOT… Wargamming, 1C the other company who had their hands in Caliber, etc… and Gaijin (all RU based companies) are the rudest and laziest I’ve ever met….
Never guess who published that big rigs for titov..
Hint: they published 3 of the worst games of the year in 2023
Its like its all one big happy family of scam products 🤣
so early the only 4 comments are bots
Tell me about it. 4 comments in mere seconds of the video going live, totally makes sense.
I keep banning them but there's always more.
@@SidAlphaI think YT staff is running these two. The banners stay the same and if their algorithm can scan video then it can easily do the same to a static picture. Considering they have been in operation for 14+ months now, and YT tends to only take about 8 months before they finally take action after a few hundred thousand reports, things have changed. At least this one is moronically easy to spot (both text and thumbnail).
@@EnsignRedshirtRicky It's common security practice for services with large user bases to ban many bots and fix many vulnerabilities at the same time, randomly and without warning rather than doing them one by one and the bot makers knowing exactly which process or vulnerability got banned so they know exactly what and where to work around, leaving the bot makers guessing and giving them more work to do on their end to work around the fixes helps slow them down even if it looks like inaction on the service provider's part
ruh oh raggy sids on the case!!! would die laughing if project leet shut down faster than the day before. stupid devs make stupid decisions winning stupid prizes needs to happen more
