DICE is growing old with the Battlefield franchise and there is a possibility that it may transfer the franchise to some other developer, Visceral perhaps, according to recent suggestions and indications. The first hint came from Patrick Bach, executive producer of Battlefield, as he said in an interview with OXM, “I think people would be very disappointed if we stopped making Battlefield games. People sometimes ask why we “only make Battlefield games”. And it’s like, firstly we don’t only make Battlefield games, and secondly, if we stopped making them people would hate me!”
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.
I've been playing BF4 and if it weren't for all the bugs it'd be an awesome game, and eventually will be. I just hope that the next one isnt as rushed and releases with fewer technical flaws.
please, Bad Company 3 :(
I'm still playing BC2 on PS3. since March 2010.
got like 1300 hours playtime.
if BC3 comes out, and it's like BC2, I don't need any other game.
"Growing old" is probably not an accurate statement. They might want to focus on fixing BF4... or maybe the main team is switching over to Battlefront?
EA really do know how to destroy what was once an amazing franchise.
