EA gets a lot of hate, but is it deserved?
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.
Today Electronic Arts CEO Andrew Wilson provided a look into his ideas for the use of generative AI in the company's development processes.
EA is still a shady shitty company even with or without the help of Skynet. All they will use AI for is new ways to milk loot boxes and come up with the same sports title with a different year on the label. They are one company I truly do hate with a passion. They single handedly ruined some great franchise with their death touch. ME, Dead Space, Alice Returns, Dante's Inferno.
EA layoffs followed by 'Generative AI to Drive Monetization'
I knew it. Wonder what AI salary looks like? Nothing.
And take away creativity, and people's jobs as we've been seeing. Got it.
No thanks. I want my games created by people, not AI.
EA doesn't want to lose their title of worst gaming company ever, always trying their best to remain the champs!
What's sad is that they have so much potential to be a decent publisher.

Remember when EA used to be awesome? It's all over with now. Unpolished, if not out-right broken games these days. Endless monetization and gambling in their sports games, and let's not forget wasting hours of your life trying to unlock characters or equipment using "surprise boxes!"
I don't think so but I don't take this as seriously as other people do. They make games I like so I like them.
Pre-Battlefield 4 - I would be on the side of wondering where all the hate stems from. I always thought it was a complete over-reaction
Post - Battlefield 4 - I'll never trust EA again. They took one of my favorite games (Battlefield) and completely ruined the experience.
Outside of NHL, i will never buy an EA game on launch. I'm a sucker for Hockey, and EA has a monopoly on the franchise and my love of the sport will not allow me to go without the newest iteration of the franchise.
One thing that they did to NHL that i cannot stand is Ultimate team. It has potential to be a very addictive game-mode, but with the best card being incredibly rare and expensive (in game pucks), it takes all the fun out of it. If they made it to where a Sidney Crosby, Pavel Datsyuk, and other top players of the sport were more obtainable, then it would be more fun.
I always feel like a challenge system would be extremely welcomed for the Ultimate team modes. Challenges like- "Win 10 Games" (rewards a Gold Pack). "1000 life time goals" (rewards an ultimate "rare" pack). Lower level challenges reward bronze packs, but the more you play the bigger the reward.
Though, Ea would never do this because people spend a lot of money on their Ultimate Teams. I was on NHL 14 HUT the other day and they had a $35 pack up for sale. Anyone who spends that kind of money on a virtual card pack is nuts.
No, WORSE!
They tried to charge for a demo...
No more need be said.
