I'm sure that the new Saudi owners and Jared Kushner will be looking into hacking up human developer cost by any means necessary.

bye, rest in piss.

here's hoping for a source code leak so we can preserve the classics and such. maybe they'd cut some costs in security.

I haven’t been giving EA any money for years already and I SURE WON’T BE DOING SO ANYTIME SOON!

[-] Frenchgeek@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 week ago

Was "Yakety sax" playing in the background when they said that?

[-] caut_R@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

If that‘s their big plan… well, I hope the IPs find smarter homes after EA goes bankrupt

[-] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Seeing Jared Kushner's involvement, I fear that will just end with bailouts on the regular.

[-] humanspiral@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 week ago

Root access to PCs, EU chatcontrol, and AI together!!!!! Unlimited profits!

[-] 4am@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 week ago

EA is gonna get Private Equity’d, I guarantee it ™️

[-] Senseless@feddit.org 6 points 1 week ago

So.. if there ever was going to be a new Mass Effect it's going to be totally shit now? Fuck.

The boycott season is getting riper by the day.

[-] pinheadednightmare@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

I’m actually starting to save money lol

[-] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Indies deserve your money much more, and less likely for that money to go to some exec's premiums.

[-] mavu@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 week ago

Ahahahaha. .Good luck with that. :D

[-] ipkpjersi@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 week ago

So business as usual, then.

[-] CaptainBasculin@lemmy.bascul.in 3 points 1 week ago

I've had my fair share of issues with EA, so honestly fuck them lmao hope their ai vision will doom them to bankruptcy

[-] NoodlePoint@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Thou shalt not make a machine in the likeness of a human mind.

[-] lemmy_outta_here@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Fortunately, thou hast not even come close

[-] pinheadednightmare@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

I will never give my money to the saudis if I can help it…. EA will have to put out a pretty crazy game for me to buy another EA title.

[-] P00ptart@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Damn, I was actually looking forward to battlefield 6. Haven't bought an EA game in probably 10 years, so the loss isn't that big of a deal. And with COD being shit for 12 years, my FPS days might be over.

[-] Zetta@mander.xyz 3 points 1 week ago

It's very stupid to install a rootkit spyware on your computer to play a video game. Now that spyware is owned by the Saudi government too. Assuming you play on PC.

[-] P00ptart@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

I'm a playstation guy. My computer savvy days are way in the rearview.

[-] Jeffool@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Delta Force has a Battlefield-ish multiplayer mode. It's free to play and you unlock new characters and guns as you advance. (Then there's an extraction mode too if you're into that.) I just tried it for the first time after the beta several months ago and I thought it was alright. No jets, but still solid.

[-] P00ptart@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Honestly I don't like the air vehicles of battlefield, so that's not a ding against it in my book.

[-] Jarix@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Maybe start a gang war PvP in gtav? I've never played gtav so I don't know if that's even possible

[-] P00ptart@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

I've never played their multiplayer. I'll just play fallout 4. Close enough, right?

[-] scripthook@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

I think this news makes me appreciate madden now more than ever as AI will break the frostbite engine even more.
