BlackSite's creative director has departed Midway following his candid post-mortem of the FPS, in which he described the development process as "so f***ed up."

According to a report on ShackNews, Midway execs have described Smith's post-mortem as "his public resignation."

"With a year to go, the game was disastrously off rails," Smith explained of BlackSite. Amidst a number of criticisms leveled at the game's development process, he described the fact that the team was given only four days to fix and polish a level, which he's described as "completely reprehensible."
