WildStar’s CRB Hotspur is apparently no longer working for Carbine, according to Twitter. He was WildStar’s technical and systems designer.

Well WildStar fans, it's been fun. Thanks for the follows. This is Matt, AKA CRB Hotspur, signing off. Come On You Spurs! — Matt (@CRB_Hotspur) March 11, 2016

We have not yet been able to confirm whether his departure is part of a larger wave of layoffs . Confirmed. We welcome more information from former employees. Multiplayer Systems Lead Brett Scheinert left last week.

In even more sobering WildStar news, former Carbine Product Director Mike Donatelli told twitter followers that he’d been diagnosed with a rare form of blood cancer:

I recently was diagnosed with Essential Thrombocythemia. My dad had cancer. My cousin has cancer. Go to the doctor. pic.twitter.com/6YfVJ4Q1Fl — Dapperdon (@DapperDonatelli) March 9, 2016

Donatelli seemingly ceded his role to Chad Moore in February. We wish all the best to him and his family.
