Activision should worry about making better maps for their own game. MW2 maps are mostly garbage.

XiNatsuDragnel181d ago

Activision it's understandable but scummy not the less.

SullysCigar180d ago

Activision finding new ways to reduce it's popularity. Good work guys...

XbladeTeddy179d ago

To be fair it's their designs being copied that were made by their designers. Why can't they protect their property without people crying about it?

XxINFERNUSxX179d ago

Since I can't stand Activision or Blizzard, I just went ahead and posted a link to Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time, since they publish it on their twitter page "DMCAs for Fortnite Creative 2.0 COD-Themed Maps" Shove your DMCA up your asses, here DMCA this: (I linked a site to get the game for free not posting it here) You published it, let me see you try to take this down on that site I'm in for a good laugh. 🤣" I was going to keep posting just to piss them off.

Don’t call them Call of Duty maps. Call them generic shooter game maps and you are fine .

Good on them doing this at least.

“we’re offering a severance package that includes six months base pay and in the US/Canada/Brazil six months of Epic-paid healthcare. We’re offering to accelerate people’s stock option vesting schedule through the end of 2024 and are giving two additional years from today to exercise the options. In the US we’re also offering to vest any unearned profit sharing from their 401k. And we’ll provide benefits including career transition services and visa support where we can.”

I wonder how much of a bonus the CEO will get after this decision?

BISHOP-BRASIL1d 22h ago

Would be "too much" for us, but probably it's "not enough" for the greedy bastard...

INMATEofARKHAM2d ago

Epic makes way too much money to have to lay people off of the spent that money smartly. Tim wasted money on exclusives for their store when it could have gone to paychecks for people.

Mikeyy2d ago

Epic put all their eggs in one basket with fortnite, they should have continued with the development of unreal tournament and got that game going as an arena shooter that's free to play with a huge cosmetic cash shop.

But your CEO knows what their doing.... laying off people so the board doesn't see exactly how much you stuck. The usual playbook.

Xbox is definitely the house of RPGs and it´s getting bigger and better by the day!

Fable will be fantastic!

I hope to see the following at Microsoft’s June games showcase:

Contraband (3rd party exclusive)
ID Software
Machine Games
The Coalition
Playground
Ninja Theory
The Initiative
Double Fine
Rare

Im sure we won’t see all these studio’s projects but at least 5 of them would be nice.

Sciurus_vulgaris2d ago

I’m surprised Gears 6 hasn’t been announced by the Coalition as of yet. Gears 5 released 4 years and the Coalitions hasn’t another AAA title since then, excluding the co-developed Gears Tactics.

Lightning772d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Todd hinted at Indiana Jones being at next year's E3.

I heard Contraband is going through some sorta rework. I don't really have much hope for that game at this point in time.

Btw Gears 6 is in full development they took time away to learn Unreal Engine 5. Yeah... If we're going off of Immortals Of Aveum performance. They have allot of work ahead of them.

GhostScholar2d ago

I’m with you, but you had to know that comment wouldn’t be popular here lol

The house of western RPGs. There, I fixed it for you

Crows902d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Not even accurate though. They haven't made a single RPG yet. Starfield is barely an RPG as it is...there's no role picking unlike in elder scrolls games...especially the older ones. No skills...no attributes...just perks.

Imagine baldurs gate 3 where all you get to pick are feats.

Sonic18812d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Starfield was probably the worse RPG from Bethesda. Especially when it comes to review scores on Steam

All games are RPG if you think about it. You play the role of a character and do the stuff required to win the game.

Technically speaking.

Zeref2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

I couldn't be happier about that. I heard even Infinity Ward is working on an RPG. I am hyped af to see what they can do outside of CoD!

Crows902d ago

What new RPGs has Xbox made recently?
