Flagship Studios founding members “selfish and irresponsible,” says HanbitSoft

The catfight between Hellgate: London‘s developer Flagship Studios and its Korean publisher HanbitSoft certainly doesn’t look like it’s going to be resolved anytime soon. In the latest development, HanbitSoft gave Flagship Studios a severe tongue-lashing, even calling its founding members “selfish and irresponsible.” Details await in the full article.

More news concerning the tiff between Hellgate: London‘s Flagship Studios and the MMO’s Korean publisher, HanbitSoft. HanbitSoft recently gave the developer a scathing tongue-lashing, calling its founding members “selfish and irresponsible.”

The Korean publisher also claimed to have offered Flagship Studios several investments, but claimed that the developing studio severely lacked in effort, leading to the talks between the two companies going haywire. HanbitSoft’s CEO, Kim Ki-Young, said:

Flagship not only lacked effort, but were only looking for personal gain. Firing all of the Flagship employees in order to protect the personal interests of its founding members only shows how selfish and irresponsible they are.

Now, that was certainly direct to the point. But harsh criticism isn’t the only thing that HanbitSoft will dish out to Flagship, but also serious legal proceedings as they believe that the Hellgate: London developer committed a breach of duty towards the stockholders.

Updates as they come along.

• Flagship Studios experience mass lay-offs, HanbitSoft trying to take over Hellgate: London
• Bill Roper: Flagship Studios still alive
