I sat down and had a 1 on 1 interview with lead developer David behind The Orion Project which was recently taken down from steam via a DMCA claim made by Activision.  Despite numerous attempts to reach out to Activision in an effort to remedy the situation and get Orion back up and in the Summer Sales, Activision has actively avoided contact with Steam, Polygon, and Trek Industries.   

   Reddit users have ignorantly gone on record stating that they're argument is sound granted the undeniable proof the community has provided, but the fatal error with the Reddit post is that the community spotted the similarities. Activision only stated which guns were ripped from their series but did not specify what guns were ripping them off so no one knows in fact if the Reddit findings is what Activision is referring to therefore the Reddit post is at this point irrelevant!  Activision has an X amount of time to answer Steam regarding the DMCA before it expires and is found no longer valid.   So given the time in which Activision has chosen to attack Orion, one could accurately assume that they're aware of the idle time a DMCA would bring and they'll stall it out to prevent Orion from participating in Steam Summer Sales.  

Please do not participate or defend the motivations of corporate suits and their malicious intentions. This was never about copied material folks, and they've already fooled you if you believe that! This has and will always be about the bigger guy pushing around the smaller guy proclaiming dominance. Don't be fooled. Educate yourself! http://www.polygon.com/2016/6/27/12047914/activision-dmca-orion-pulled-from-steam-call-of-duty-trek-industries  Here you will find proof that Activision isn't responding to various attempts to reach them on this matter.  They're far too busy to respond to multiple companies wanting more information but not busy enough to call copyright infringement, that's odd, don't you think?
