meomao Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 (edited) Guess this is 'oproof psoitive' that BIO's name has taken a huge hit because of the socalled 'failure'm of 2mil+ seller DA2. So much so that EA is using the BIO logo to sell other people's trash. I won't fall for such a sucker move EA. I doubt this C&C is gonna be anything resmebling a BIO EDM game. I've tried C&C in the past a bit not really my kinda game. Maybe we should wait and see the sale data of Bioware's C&C before we judge the merit and implication of the whole "let's put a Bioware logo on it" business. EA could think that Bioware logo helps games to sell and that the name alone estabilish a good reputation for those games, but the "succes" of the Warhammer MMO seems to proove the opposite. For what is worth, I'm a long term Bioware fan. I've bought and played all their games except Sonic and enjoyyed most of them to different degrees with the exception of DA2. I will never buy a C&C game since I could not care less about MP. You seem to be in the same camp. What else to say... EA is not known for its insight on gamers. Edited November 29, 2011 by meomao
Nightshape Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 35 people? That's not massive? L0L Pre-Production teams alway start smaller. Unless SE outsources the bulk of the game somewhere else. Yeah, that's a pretty large pre-pro team. I came up with Crate 3.0 technology. Crate 4.0 - we shall just have to wait and see.Down and out on the Solomani RimNow the Spinward Marches don't look so GRIM!
Nightshape Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 I was just reminded Jon Van Caneghem is at the helm of this new 'BioWare' studio. Further fuelling the rumour of BioWare's involvement with the Command and Conquer project was a LinkedIn profile update, reported by Kotaku but since removed from the business networking site, indicating that a user-interface artist works for "a BioWare studio called Victory Games", based near LA. In an interview posted on the Command and Conquer website earlier this year, Victory Games' general manager Jon Van Caneghem announced that his team would be working on a new C&C title for PC and that a more formal announcement would follow later in the year. Van Caneghem also revealed that Victory Games has offices in various locations, including LA. http://au.games.ign.com/articles/121/1213223p1.html So EA got the father of M&M together with BioWare and somehow decided they should be making a C&C sequel I wouldn't write it off, it could be the best facebook integrated turn based strategy game ever. I came up with Crate 3.0 technology. Crate 4.0 - we shall just have to wait and see.Down and out on the Solomani RimNow the Spinward Marches don't look so GRIM!
Morgoth Posted November 30, 2011 Posted November 30, 2011 Dragon Age 3 to have multiplayer? Using Frostbite 2 engine? Rain makes everything better.
entrerix Posted November 30, 2011 Posted November 30, 2011 are we talking, baldurs gate multiplayer? or the kind of multiplayer that uses up so much in development resources that the single player game becomes a joke? neverwinter nights, im looking at you. Killing is kind of like playin' a basketball game. I am there. and the other player is there. and it's just the two of us. and I put the other player's body in my van. and I am the winner. - Nice Pete.

entrerix Posted November 30, 2011 Posted November 30, 2011 i feel like volourn should get some kind of medal or recognition for his reliability. Killing is kind of like playin' a basketball game.

Nightshape Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 i feel like volourn should get some kind of medal or recognition for his reliability. He's probably paid for by Bioware. I came up with Crate 3.0 technology. Crate 4.0 - we shall just have to wait and see.Down and out on the Solomani RimNow the Spinward Marches don't look so GRIM!
HoonDing Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 BioWare should at least include a Volourn NPC in their next game. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
Nightshape Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 BioWare should at least include a Volourn NPC in their next game. Heh... He doesn't deserve that glory, unless I can shoots him in the face.

And having been educated solely by mkreku in this respect I am convinced that Finland essentially IS the wh40k universe.

Labadal Posted December 3, 2011 Posted December 3, 2011 Always thought it seemed like a cool game. Alas, no time for MMO games.

Raithe Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 And just in time for that Christmas season, and that spirit of good will on earth and to all men.. - Left Behind: Eternal Forces A game that's all set to ship to around 10,000 retailers across America, aimed to be a "beacon of light that could shine in the dark world of video games", where the player is a member of a "christian gang" in a post-apocalyptic New York and you have to convert or kill jews, athiests and other unsavoury types in the employ of the Anti-Christ to advance a level.
