don't worry, last I heard this is a Chinese game for a Chinese audience (probably won't come west and is guaranteed to turn a profit). Funny thing is, one of the producers at Mythic was in charge of this. In some small part it's a Mythic game, hurray... I guess?
Chinese employee vs. foreign company sounds like a good case to me. Especially since Crytek isn't in any way important to the Chinese economy and there's no need to wear the satin gloves. If anything, some folks might be happy to stick it to the foreigners.
