Today at Gamescom, EA announced a new Command and Conquer game that’ll be Free to Play. After previously announcing Command Conquer Generals 2 late last year, EA have stated that the game has now been transformed into part of this new Free to play title, offering a full AAA strategy game free of charge.
There are no thoughtful ads in Video Games, EA. Leave them be.
I think the only type of games that can gets away with it would be sport games, having those sponsors ads on the side like on real life.
But don't put freaking Doritos ads in Star Wars or something, it breaks the immersion. If it is a pop-up ads, then big no.
One of my favorite series is the THPS franchise, and it was packed with ads, but it didn't bother me. Posters for skateboard companies, JEEP, and Nokia phones. It did sort of fit in with the game world, but that was the past, these days ad would be intentionally intrusive or unskippable loading screen type of imagery. Ugh, I know EA would do it in a horrible fashion. Screw them.
EA senior staff has been investigated for sexual misconduct involving female coworkers, and these said people have been named publicly.
Aye just call Phil, i mean he somehow made Bobby Kotick's scandal disappear and gave him a few million dollar high five on the way out.
EA about to go down like Activision and then Phil saves the day saying.this is good for the industry and consolidation will help create competition. /s.
What's up with all these horny creeps. You gon be horny, fine. Just not at work take care of that shit before you go in. Rub one out if you have to. Don't be a creep at all. ESPECIALLY at work. But don't be one AT ALL.
"it seems that according to EA, given the events transpired outside of work between two adults, and the fact that once investigation has started that the alleged perpetrators didn’t do it again, the investigation is considered closed. [...] The victim still has to work with the people that harassed her."
Yep, EA is disgusting.
EA has announced it will engage in a shareholder-pleasing share buyback program just a couple of months after mass layoffs at the studio.
And like that C&C is dead
I hope it's a proper free to play model like League of Legends and not a pay to win. That and having solid gameplay like the classic CnC games will keep people interested. If not then it'll be just another failed CnC game in the eyes of fans.
So many butt-hurt people crying because the game is going to be F2P. Who cares? TF2 is F2P and it's not P2W so calm your crap.
They don't even have to give you this game. Beggars can't be choosers children.
I for one will be playing this. It looks nice.
