They would've only found a way to fuck it up anyway (EA, not the devs)

Would their size not be their detriment? I'm sure the people working there are passionate and want to deliver great quality experiences, but it also feels like games made by committee. Lacking soul and overarching vision, combined with a cash grab because all those people need to be paid.

EA, If you dont want to work on your IP make it public. Don't make it burn under your shitty leadership

For brain rotten morons that only care about money.. they really don't seem to want mine. Fuck 'em.

It’s usually more like execs needing bonuses. Less people at places like these usually means 1 person is now doing the work of 2. “No, we’re not backfilling these roles.” _Queue collective groan from everyone left as they start to prepare their resumes._

This better not affect the third Jedi game you absolute fucks

Big companies profit from the labour of hardworking creatives. I'm just wondering how a company of their size can make good games with an incompetent leadership. I'm saying making games with budgets like theirs should be a dream and the results should be insane, but it's up to management to make it happen. Instead they choose to rid themselves of talent and pocket the money.

My hopes are somehow retroactively inflated learning it was real but at the same time also destroyed knowing that that means a new game is even less likely now.

It was a Titanfall extraction shooter, so not the Titanfall you were looking for.

I mean, that still sounds pretty fun. Their horde mode in TF2 was fun so I’d imagine this would be too

Yeah, you would think they’d be given the space to make something amazing, but the execs ruin it for everyone with insane deadlines, constant layoffs, and forcing devs to put in questionable moneymaker mechanics. There’s been a constant squeeze in tech for years now. You’re always expected to be faster and more efficient at each interval and it never eases up. I’d be happy to wait longer for a game if it means the devs aren’t stuck in a grueling loop that burns folks out and drains the end result of its soul. On top of that, games are insanely hard to make. So many system configurations and variables that can wreak havoc.

Classic EA.

This news comes exactly 1 day after I uninstalled Titanfall 2 so I can't help but feel somewhat responsible

If you want a game that has fun movement in it and isn't being suffocated by late stage capitalism, check out the indie game Splitgate (and the soon to come out Splitgate 2). The gameplay is halo---ishh with a really well integrated jetpack. The gunplay is VERY tight and there is a lot of movement and positioning skill to the game, I always have a blast when I play! https://store.steampowered.com/app/677620/Splitgate/

I remember seeing a guy with a gamertag EA_C_Suite, and I think I killed him like 30 times in one match. I think this one's on me guys, sorry, I just really like Scortch.

Seconded, and my son likes it too.
