Roper hopes to close Flagship 'gracefully'

Veteran talks studio's demise

In a new interview with 1UP.com, Flagship founder and ex-Blizzard exec Bill Roper has said he hopes to wind-up the developer "gracefully", by paying those who are owed money and letting the Hellgate developer slide out of view with some dignity.

"We’re working hard on how to end gracefully," he told the website.

"Obviously, we’ve got people we owe money to, so we’re doing absolutely everything in our power to get those people the money we owe them, whether that’s on an institutional side, lenders, or, equally as important, with our employees who aren’t there anymore."

Farewell, Flagship.
