Stockholm studio founded by Far Cry and Battlefield developers working on a new recipe for emergent multiplayer co-op action
With the launch of Call of Duty Season 4, Activision quietly put adverts inside loadouts for Black Ops 6 and Warzone, sparking a backlash in the process.
Putting Ads in a pay-to-play Premium title? Well done Microsoft. Well done /s This is really scummy.
This game will never change because these sweatlords love buying up all the skins and bundles that become obsolete the following year. They're the ones perpetuating Activision's greed.
If Microsoft introduces adverts into its other games I hope it can do them without disrupting the immersion of the game world. So for example in the new Fable game it would look out of place if there was a billboard advertising Cadillacs.
A far better way to do it would be to have a wizard conjure a 'dream cloud' in front of your character and then in the cloud you can see the Cadillac car and see the text with price and availability and hear a booming sales voice promoting the car. That would work so well as it wouldn't be a billboard and completely, 100%, fit in with your character's adventuring in Albion. Doesn't that sound so much better?!
Game Informer visited developer Rogue Factor to play a few hours of its promising debut title, Hell is Us.
Geoff Keighley confirms that new James Bond dev IO Interactive is appearing at Summer Game Fest, giving us hope for a Project 007 reveal.
IO is also the publisher for MindsEye so it could be about that game.
i'd much prefer it to be about their Bond project though. love what they've done with hitman and im hyped to see what they can do with the Bond franchise.
