I think we all have more stories to tell, that's the most disappointing part.

Another nail in the coffin. Only nail remaining is some kind of acknowledgement that they have discontinued the Foundry.
Hmm. Wonder if it's still being advertised on the STO site.
I checked, its not.
Remember way back when, just before launch. When all those STO people came over here warning us about the foundry. And we all laughed and said, "No it will be different here".
I have been working on a campaign for a long time now. If the Foundry becomes permanently disabled then I will have no more reason to spend my time here. It sucks because I have put a lot of heart into it.
The 'button' is still there. I'm still holding out hope until it's gone and they actually post 'It'll never return'.
Actually removing the button requires a commitment of resources. Doing nothing, and letting catalogue languish unpublished, provides the same effect and requires zero resources.

Exactly. And with their expertise, the simple act of removing a UI button they would probably create 3-4 bugs in Strongholds.
Well this sucks. I literally just got into the game and learned about the Foundry through the mail they send you when you hit 15 and got excited to start making my own campaigns and stuff. Now I learn it's been gone for awhile now, and might not come back? You guys really think they won't bring it back?
It'll come back. It might take a while, a very long while. Folks over on STO had a similar situation a few years ago, or so I've been told. In terms of priorities the Foundry probably ranks the lowest for them to appropriate hours to work on it.

Saw a flicker of life. Catalog not republished but saw odd glitch not seen before. While transitioning on the world map, waiting for map to load, I saw an icon on the map for "Chandler Family Farm". I know that's from a foundry quest. Can't recall whose, think kodallegacy, but I know it was. Was a four parter I think. Zoned in and reloaded world map, was still there. But then dungeon queue hit before I could click. And then it was gone.

That is for an epic quest line to open up the Underdark/Maze Engine campaigns. It IS done in a Foundry style and is quite enjoyable. It becomes available at level 60 and is given out by Capt Belgar (sp?) who's on a horse by the Driftwood Tavern in the Enclave. I recommend doing the series at 60 and before 70 because it flows much better as an opener to the Maze Engine quest line and keeps the story in better chronological order.
I'm glad to hear that they're still working on the Foundry though. I can wait and for those who are new, I encourage you to keep checking back for updates periodically though chances are possible we will not see it come back till next year. It's the best thing in the game, IMO, and for me at least, worth waiting for. If they haven't killed it in STO, then hopefully they'll get it to work again for Neverwinter in time.

I am just as surprised as anyone that the foundry is up and working again but I am just glad to see it back. Thank you to the Cryptic team for finally getting it back up and running. Please do not let the foundry go this long without any word like this again. It is one of the only things that sets Neverwinter apart from being just another fantasy action MMO.

If you get tired of the infinite wait for the dead to rise, and happen to have Fallout 4, I've made a mod with a bunch of signs and posters that you can use for decorating your settlements. It's not the same as making a Foundry quest, but since you can't actually make Foundry quests anymore, at least it's something to do....
Yep. 619 hours building my Fallout 4 settlements. What;s the name of your mod -- is that GruffyDDs signs perhaps? ...
Hey, sorry I didn't respond earlier. I just now checked back in to see if anything had changed. Yes, Gruffydd's Signs and Posters and Gruffydd's Signs of the Times are my two mods.
It has been down following every single module ever released, so yeah. Expect anywhere from a couple of weeks to a couple of months downtime. (Although it's a unusual, and probably good sign, that the foundry catalog is online).
hey guys, I put a ticket in for foundry & guess what I got back.. "cryptic & arc do not support the foundry". How they treat it & respect it & all of us who are using it... I would say I believe that

You know, devs, this is a really lousy way to let players know that it's going away. Seriously.

I know that Andy addressed this a few weeks ago, in that he would check with the devs, and he was probably told to drop it.
It's highly discouraging.

But well, unexpectedly the Foundry is up again, in a record time after a mod release.
No new assets though, maybe next year...
