Goddamnit. I was actually looking forward to BF6

astanix,

Oh yeah, were you looking forward to a sense of pride and accomplishment?

morphballganon,

Do they have good gameplay? Story?

Lfrith,

I recommend saving the money and checking out the Finals which has better destruction. Has 3 v 3 objective mode too now for those who hated getting third partied.

Making good games that arent pay to win trash will do that too, ya know…

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.

Jarix,

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

P00ptart,

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

Zetta,

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,

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

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,

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

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

It will do the opposite. More costs and less profit.

As someone who uses AI regularly for software engineering and ~2/3 of the time finds it very effective…

…there is no way it can produce quality games or gaming experiences.

I look forward to watching EA collapse. Get rekt.

slaneesh_is_right,

People still buy fifa, they always dod and always will. And with the billions they spend on lootboxes, they probably make their money back

As a developer/tech lead who also uses ai i bloody agree. This is going to be baaaadddd. Didnt know ea could get worse

AA5B,

There always places. I’m skeptical about saving significant money but what about graphical or story elements? I’m not too familiar with how games are built but ai can generate arbitrary “artwork” and even music

AlecSadler,

For me the beauty of some games is the knowledge of the writers involved in a story or the composers for the music.

If I know upfront it’s all AI generated I think that’d ruin it for me. But I realize that’s just my opinion.

Passerby6497,

The human employees may use AI to help speed things up or do repetitive/monotonous tasks, but without human oversight the AI will be functionally worthless for most things due to lack of knowledge over instructions. Add on the insecure and unoptimized code AI spits out and it’s gonna be fun watching the dumpster fire.

Looks like everyone needs to boycott EA

Jarix,

Sorry to be the one laughing at you.

But I need you to really think hard on this.

If people haven’t boycotted EA by now, what in the wild hells makes you think this is the straw that’s gonna break that mutant camels back?

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

This going to be a total venture capitalist play. It was already set that the fifty billion dollar acquisition was also going to be placing EA in like twenty billion in debts. They’ll flood it with more debts, piece the IP’s all out, legal launder the money, and take ea into bankruptcy.

EA is dead.

ILoveUnions,

I hope they sell spore to a better company

yeah, good riddance. As long as ubisoft doesn’t suck up the bigger ips it can only get better

So business as usual, then.

Welp, I guess Battlefield 6 is cooked.

This is one I was looking forward to but won’t buy now.

God, every new things i hear from this is worse and WORSE.

Lost_My_Mind,

For me it’s not. Don’t get me wrong, I hate AI.

But also, I don’t buy games from EA for the past 10 years.

So all I’m hearing is that the Madden series will either be sold off, or die.

I only bought every few years. Because really, why buy 2013 when you have 2012? Buuuuut, you can justify buying 2017, when all you have is 2012.

I think that was the first Madden game I bought where it didn’t have a season mode.

I do not give a FUUUUUCK about franchise mode. I don’t care about running a team. I don’t care about controlling an individual player from high school to NFL. I don’t care about designing plays. I don’t care about roster trades.

I don’t even know the names of the players. I don’t know what a nickle or dime is. I just know this play is a passing play, and I can either throw to L1, or X. Then I let the play develop, and see who’s open.

All I want to do is play 16 games, and if we make it, the playoffs. Once we either win or don’t win the superbowl, the game is over for me.

Literally the only 2 modes I give a flying fuck about are exhibition and season. Don’t know don’t care what player packs are, or elite cards, or any of this XP bullshit. I do not give one flying fuck.

But let the guy run, and I press the button, and he throws the ball. Then if he catches it, let me run with it.

And they took away the part of the game I spend 80% of my time in. So I took away any sales I gave them since.

tanisnikana,

Actually, shit, this is impressive.

I think you just explained how football is played to me in a way I can actually understand!

Thanks for that.

Lost_My_Mind,

See, the thing is, the guy with the ball? He’s the one with the ball.

And the guy with the ball??? Well he’s the one with the ball!!! And as we all know, the guy who’s playing with his balls, is the one who controls EVERYTHING!!! So you can’t just give the ball to just anyone. I mean my god! What if you try to give the ball to some guy who’s not ready to run??? You don’t see Brady throwing a football to Stephen Hawking!!! You know why??? Because he’s dead! And also because he can’t run…because, again, he’s dead. Dead people can’t run.

I’m honestly baffled why Usain Bolt never played football. Imagine giving that guy the ball and telling him “your job…is to RUN!!!”

Wasted oppertunity is what that is! Yeah, sure, he competed in the olympics. But just imagine if he made the Cleveland Browns into a winning team! He’d be the highest paid athlete EVER!!!

People would say “You won the BROWNS a championship??? Holy fuck! Lets get you on a box of Wheaties!”

I mean…right?

primrosepathspeedrun,

Would be worse if it wasn’t EA.

Like dumping a bloated rotting corpse in a pit of radioactive sewage; hard to make it worse.

Hmm, that’s a good point.
