This is a fascinating article from Eurogamer, discussing Ion Storm's cancelled modern-day Thief sequel: And: And about the Thief 4 fiasco:

Hey, Every time I've try to use the Full Editor when PM'ing someone, and every single time I get an error. Whoever is in charge of the forum, is it possible that this could be fixed? Thanks Neon

Ok, this idea just simply ran through my mind a moment ago and I wish to put it into discussion immediately. So ehm basically when I showed TDM to a friend of mine who is a fan of classy games I was sure he'll be surprised. I opened the section of main page where you download the missions and showed how many we got with all the pride in my voice. Then he said - "blaah but these are standalone and they don't match so it's not really an involving game" and then he said sth like "if it was like a part of one City...". When I woke this morning, I imagined a modern TDM: When you launch the game, instead of a menu, we could just spawn on the main City map, preferably at our secret hideout. In the secret hideout we could go into certain rooms where we would have pop up menus like let's say you go into the toilet and you have "Settings Menu", when you get up to the table in dining room where scrolls with assignments lie, you have "load game/download missions/choose missions" etc. Now since we go standalone, I understand that we will also have option of making maps with loading locations. Perfect thing because we can make a city map with one district which will match with other districts, making up for a huge map. Ofc We wouldn't have to do everything at once! When you have a mission installed we could also allow the players to use City locations to enter these missions. Ofc most of them could start in the Inn. But people who want to contribute to the City, could make their mission entrances for example at doors to a cathedral or at some random doors in the street! What it gives is a much bigger connection to the world of TDM. There are no problems with different campaigns then, becuase you can start it from Inn, or if you re a traveller and you want your mission to be in other City, well then hey, you can make the entrance to mission at the city front gate! Ye we all have different thieves in our missions with different names, but I don't think we would bother because of that so much... and the City itself make up for this little inconsistency. ok I am ready mentally for all your negative answers and conservative points of view, bring it on!

I'm wondering if anyone ever checks new posts in the Fan Missions Forums? I've posted 4 questions asking for help for 4 different missions that I can't finish because I"m stuck, and I don't get any help. I posted a question this morning so I don't expect an answer right away for that one. Its frustrating because I would like to finish them. I've read through the posts for each mission and I'm not getting anything from them. If there's someone who could help me I'd really appreciate it. Thanks I guess I'm spoiled from the TTLG forums.
