Sad to hear this from such a talented studio.

Sad to hear this from such a talented studio.

All there is to say.

 

[ShadyAcshuns]

That sucks. Hope the employees can find new paths to explore.

Microsoft acquisition incoming?

Microsoft acquisition incoming?

Probably on Wednesday

Sega did warn us the other day, it's unfortunate and the developer deserves better, they deserve a better parent company. Viking battle for Asgard on X360 was a guilty pleasure.
The company has been around a lot longer then I thought and it's bigger than I thought.

 

[KyoZz]

CA is so poorly managed that it's almost unreal. Although layoffs are always sad to hear, I hope they get their shit together.

 

[LiquidJensen]

Oh no, what would we ever do without The Space Drag Queen Game?!

 

[Klosshufvud]

They haven't made a good TW since FOTS and Hyenas showed their true colors. They wanted an exit card into an early retirement.

 

[ahtlas7]

I remember when CA equalled excitement.

 

[rofif]

Talented studio. I personally hated alien game with all my souls as it was a hide and seek game stretched to 20 hours…. But it was still quality.

 

[Virex]

Microsoft acquisition incoming?

They belong to Sega. So Microsoft will have to buy Sega as well

 

[SlimeGooGoo]

They belong to Sega. So Microsoft will have to buy Sega as well

Unless SEGA sells them to Microsoft

Like Squeenix did with Crystal Dynamics

 

[mrmustard]

Alien Isolation was one of the best games last gen, so sad.

 

[Sybrix]

Microsoft acquisition incoming?

Hope so.

Should have had Medieval 3 already.

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

I feel for the devs but this is like the third thread we're having on this lol.

 

[Virex]

Unless SEGA sells them to Microsoft

Like Squeenix did with Crystal Dynamics

Next Wednesday

 

[Facism]

it's a big shame. They've been fumbling Warhammer Total War 3 hard when it comes to DLC.

 

[STARSBarry]

Honestly I can't blame SEGA for this, they where currently working in HYENA's which from the trailer was just a rehash of Lawbreakers, even had the whole "gravity changes" gimic.

And it just looked soulless and fucking awful. I get it, everyone wants their own fortnite. But the era of shitting out a GaaS shooter has passed, the next big thing will be something different. You can't capitalise that by just chasing a now half decade old trend.

 

[RAIDEN1]

The bigger question is will we EVER get an Alien Isolation 2?

 

[Arachnid]

Sad to hear. They should have made it big with AI. One of the best horror games of all time and I'll be replaying it just like Silent Hill 2 for the forseeable future.

 

[StueyDuck]

phil spencer rubbing his pickle seeing this news.

 

[Hudo]

As long as I get my Total War: Empire II or Total War: WW1...

 

[Honey Bunny]

Rocksteady will be here in a bit when their shitty gaas shooter flops

 

[Tsaki]

Hopefully they get more hands on deck on Warhammer 3. Going from WH2 to that was a travesty.

 

[Elog]

I do not understand CA at all. The product that is making the most money for them - TW WH series - is seeing less investment even though good DLCs sell incredible well for them (the last DLC was shameful). They would furthermore make an incredible amount of money from a new iteration of TW Medieval with a more or less complete Europe+ map. The same goes for a proper bronze age game but then they do a weird variant thereof with Pharaoh.

Strategically there are some very strange decisions in terms of resource allocation. Feels like too many suits with powerpoint presentations calling the shots.
