Why EA Australias Dine With DICE Makes Me Love The Industry

Not to sound pretentious or high and mighty, but I thoroughly enjoyed Wednesday evenings Dine With DICE, that was hosted by the awesome folks at EA Australia.

In anticipation for the release of Battlefield 4 on October 31st on top of the fact that it’s featured at the EB EXPO which is currently running, a group of roughly 20 selected media and a few community were invited to engage with a 5 course degustation dinner with each meal named after a feature in Battlefield 4.

In attendance on the night was Creative Director at DICE, Lars Gustavsson who prior to each meal would divulge in a little bit of backstory regarding the reason behind including each of the 5 feature sin Battlefield 4.

Battlefield 1, Hardline, BF4 Servers Are Being Taken Offline by Cheaters; EA Silent on Issue

Cheaters & hackers have been causing grief on Battlefield 1, Hardline & BF4 servers, with nonstop DDoS attacks among other things. Unfortunately, EA has remained silent about it.

-Foxtrot781d ago

Course they are silent, they are hoping people flock to 2042

gamesftw250780d ago

Maybe it was a inside job then haha.

jeromeface780d ago

wouldnt be the first time, titanfall 1+2 anyone?

PapaBop780d ago

Not even if they paid me.. EA always do this with old games with less money potential, if this was Ultimate Team, they'd address and sort it faster than stories could spread. Why invest time in their products when they will just dump it in the following years? Then again EA never could see the forest for the trees.

I imagine after those games were given out for free a couple months back through Amazon, anything that makes people go to 2042 is a plus for them

XiNatsuDragnel781d ago

They want people to go on 2042. My theory

excaliburps780d ago

Nah. I think they can't do anything about it or they want to sink money into fixing it.

EA owns all BF servers so yes, they can do something about it but they refuse to because they dont want ppl playing their old games instead of the new one. Its EA we’re talking about here

pr33k33780d ago

if this happened in 2042, they'd have something to say. which is weird, considering battlefield 1 has more players on steam right now.

Pudge102888780d ago

Its so obvious that EA is doing this or hired ppl to mess up the games so that we’d be forced to have just 1 Battlefield working.

FPS_D3TH780d ago

Honestly it’s probably the devs themselves. They did an update to bf4 way back that kinda made assault rifles doo doo in hopes that people would flock to BF1 cuz BF4 was too perfect

There's a bunch of great shooters on gamepass; both legacy and new.

A recommendation I have is a work in progress preview title called Anacrusis. It's a lot of fun, and has a cool aesthetic.
