Those hoping for some Respawn-related E3 goodness, look away now: EA Partners has told CVG that it's seen "nothing" by way of game designs from the nascent studio just yet.
But that's not to say that the publisher has any concerns. As although EA has "no idea what they're going to come up with", the firm told CVG it has an "inherent trust" in its new colleagues.
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.
But yet EA gave them a 10 year publishing deal? Talk about a gamble. I hope Respawn can recreate the success of Infinity Ward.
They better trust em lol. I doubt they can recreate the magic at EA. We'll see I guess.
this was a pointless article i don't think everybody just expect them to pull a game out their asses the next day, and if you did you is a lame fa thinkn it......
Respawn just started up, like 2 months ago and they barely got there resources up. I mean the guys are still decorating their office with furniture. Give these guys a break, they need time to work, while also dealing with kotic and litigations.
the studio isnt even finished yet....
