EA announced today via their blog that they will ship every new EA Sports game, starting with Tiger Woods 11, with a single use code that will allow purchasers access to online features like, “Online Team Play, Live Tournaments and other modes and features.” Right now they are labeling this stuff “Bonus Content”, but it says here that it will expand to include everything other than basic online play.
Today EA hosted its Investors Day, and Chief Executive Officer Andrew Wilson talked about the company's dedication to generative AI.
He's so excited to layoff more employees for FAKE STUPIDITY computer programing to replace them.
Hopefully EA takes a nosedive just like Ubisoft is currently doing. Lack of money is the only thing that can hurt them and possibly change them.
Of course it is. EA has been lazy for years. Profiting for investors and themselves without putting in the work. Having AI write code or build graphics for them just makes them even more lazy.
I'd laugh if those same investors built "executive code" and got rid of EA's CEO and board of directors and replaced them with AI.
Today Electronic Arts hosted its Investors Day and its executives shared what's next for the Battlefield franchise.
ohh god, here we go!
This is exactly why the gaming industry is failing. It's now an industry of suits "trying to find the fun".
...I'll help you out a little, If you're trying to find it, then it's not fun and neither are you. move on!
Honestly, get them to sit down and play Bad Company 2 together.
If they can't see why that had the magic, they shouldn't be game developers.
The CEO of EA has iterated his massive ambitions about the next Battlefield entry in the new Q1 2025 financial results.
It ain't Bad Company 3 ... so stop false-promising ... but make it current-gen only plz ... it'll be 2025 ffs
More intentionally released broken games with micro-trash-actions, and of course fake apologies written by ChatGPT instead of doing it yourself because you don't give a crap if you sell people garbage for their hard earned money.
Ass.
Isn't that the whole point of having a "series" of games? Isn't the follow-up supposed to be inherently better or "more ambitious" than the previous entries? Unfortunately, this has not been the case for Battlefield in quite some time. I've still never even redeemed the free BF 2042 code I got a year and a half ago lol. Such a shame, used to be one of my favorite shooters back in the day.
I approve this =)
Just so long as they give used buyers the option to actually beable to buy the content
really cant say i blame them, if i was at their position i would do the same but as gamer i guess this is not good. I try not to be hypocrite.
Why am I not surprised that it's EA doing this? I think it's a crappy move. People get tired of games and want to get a little money back. Others can't afford to buy all the games they want at full price. All owners would still have to pay for any DLC if they wanted it. I understand the move, but I think it stinks.
