EA lowered the damage of paid-for in-game weapon add-ons in the interest of balancing the game, which upset some players who purchased the items.
EA just hosted its quarterly financial conference call, and its executives have been asked to comment about the recent price hikes for games.
Today, Electronic Arts announced its financial results for the fourth quarter of its fiscal year 2025, alongside the full year.
Split Fiction has sold nearly 4 million copies, and the next battlefield is confirmed for a release by March 2026 with a reveal this Summer.
In addition to the roughly 100 job cuts IGN reported earlier today at Respawn Entertainment, EA has made wider cuts across its organization today, impacting around 300 individuals total including those already reported at Respawn.
Absolutely insane. Man I'm hope they land on their feet EA needs to get the shit together badly....
This is why this industry has slow releases and none compelling games.
Why would anyone willingly work in the VG industry or specifically for one of these globocorp organizations that put you in constant fear of losing your livelihood based on terrible choices made by idiotic management, not the people with talent making the actual games?
I actually play this game (at work of course)
And i have to say EAsy have really screwed this game up and ripped off the Gamers who bought Elite and Veteran weapons.
Gamers paid money for these guns and now they got taken away (or reduced to basic model).
anyway the game is so screwed up now it doesn't matter what gun you have cause now they have so much friggin recoil you cant shoot straight anyway and then
1. You can snipe with USAS-12 and Saiga shotguns. up close sure a shotgun will kill you with one shot but a hundred yards away your taking minimal damage. But NOoooo! People are using Saiga's and USAS like sniper/assualt rifles and getting one shot kills at long distances and when used up close you don't even have to aim you will get the kill even if your back is pointed to them.
2. people running around the map with RPG's fitted with the RPG booster means they just launch RPg's at the ground a few feet away and kill everyone on the screen.
3. Mortar Booster makes the game even MOAR broken cause it allows snipers to just bombard any spot on the map with mortar strikes. so basically capture 3 flags then continuously bombard enemy spawn and the game is over. Snipers are getting 50 kills a round without firing one shot from their rifle or handgun.
at first BFP4F was fun but now it's just a cash grab for EA and everything cost too much and is not a "Purchase Forever" item cause as proven EA will just take stuff away.
Anyone who thought they could purchase victory in the first place was a fool.
