    FYI CCP has posted that they are looking for various people to work on WoD the last week. https://mobile.twitter.com/#!/CCPGAMESjobs http://www.ccpgames.com/en/jobs This is good news!

    I'm surprised they wouldn't just bring back the people they just let go.

    Articled, thanks again Galel!

    Hfx, maybe they would give them the opportunity but also to others to see if the former employees would still be much committed? Who knows.. but yeah, makes me wonder too..

    Cheers!

    Weren't a lot of the folks they laid off in Level Design and QA/QC positions? All the openings are for "art."
     
    EDIT: Weren't they looking for artists before the layoffs anyway?

    Did someone release (somewhere) which jobs were reduced from the MMO Team? That would be some high quality information to have. Maybe as a reference for the future?

    Cheers!

    http://whitewolf.wikia.com/wiki/Black_Wednesday is the most complete list I've seen, but it's hardly 20% of what CCP's staff was.  I'm sure a lot more jobs were cut across the board. 
     
    That said it mostly looks like they are hiring artists which is a good sign.

    From personal perspective they would like to hire the people back, if they left on good terms, but the worst thing a company can do is become stagnant. If I were running a company I would like to shake things up and bring in new talent, but in today's economy that would mean letting some old employees go. New people bring new ideas, and if I could draw, I would apply for the job as well. I hope to see what great ideas come out of the imaginations of the new people they hire.

    Not much, but at least we keep getting confirmations that people are working on the game in various levels
