A very dedicated designer on the team was trying to reverse-engineer a sort of Classic mode within the existing game - produce elites through buildings, etc.. There were programming challenges that we weren't able to overcome.

Looks like dow 3 became disaster, because relic lost their souce code with all their features, that they working on for many years, and their progammers trying reverse-engineering it, but don't be able. So, Is Game Over for relic? How will they be able create coh 3 without their source code?

I read that post as one designer tried to make changes in their spare time but couldn't implement them without programmer assistance and they couldn't get a free programmer to help out.

I don't really know how that means they lost the source code.

Imagine being as dumb as to forget your own source code.

^This.

People seem to believe designers are the same as developers.
Well, they aren't.
Designers are architects.
Developers are your construction specialists.

You can't really reverse engineer code if you aren't a programmer yourself, but you can do small tweaks.
