lunars-going-poppy.bsky.social•19 days ago

As if the Titanfall series needed to take any more Ls. 😓

visoredavenger.bsky.social•19 days ago

Didn't need another extraction shooter anyway.
Also I remember when Switch 1 came out and Titanfall 2 dev laughed at the idea of the game being ported, 8 years later Switch 1 made it's mark while Titanfall well... not so much.

I hope those devs find stable employment.

Seriously, those corporate heads are out of control.

As with movies, companies need to stop dumping loads of money on games that will never see the light of day or have no hope of turning a profit.

Cussing hell, EA. All the way back down to the ladder for you. Feel worst for Respawn and anybody who just lost their job on a whim like this. Awful the "AAA" market can be.

crossakarook.bsky.social•19 days ago

Titanfall fans when the change of getting another Titanfall game is now lower (and probably will bow never happen) I feel bad for all of you and fuck ea for not letting respawn have a change to make another titanfall game

Not a good time to work in the game industry. Specially nowadays with the economy on the verge of collapse.

imannymetal.bsky.social•19 days ago

Fuck EA 💩

infestedjoker.bsky.social•19 days ago

Good news, everyone. It was canceled for you to play an even better game!

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

Enjoy!

gritandoengay.bsky.social•19 days ago

What a fumble. So much potential for another great game and idiot execs once again ruin everything. My heart goes out to the fired employees.

leanlefty.bsky.social•19 days ago

Titanfall 2 had the best first person shooter movement ever and I resent EA for consistently stabbing the IP in the back

Gaming industry is broken. I’ll stick to PS3 games for now.

jaygrayble.bsky.social•19 days ago

They see how feral titanfall players are for a new game but they constantly cancel titanfall projects after they tease them. Its genuinely sad to see. Its like watching a parent lie to their child with false promises of an xbox if they get all As but refusing to follow through

loansome.bsky.social•19 days ago

In this case it's like you were promised an Xbox, but they were gonna get you a gameboy even though you already have one, so they end up not giving you anything

dasisonline.bsky.social•19 days ago

FUCK!

Nothing of value was lost besides the people who lost their jobs.

wisecup.bsky.social•19 days ago

I don’t care about extraction shooters. BUT a extraction titan fall sounds fun as fuck

pilgrim1997.bsky.social•19 days ago

Think of how massive the map would have to be. Would actually be kinda interesting but extraction shooters are such a gimmick and I wouldn't trust EA to not fuck it up, even with the best devs on earth

wisecup.bsky.social•19 days ago

Indeed, I just want to see something new with extraction shooters and titanfall

tllgy.bsky.social•18 days ago

Extraction shooter movement shooter sounds sick as fuck tbh

smaz83.bsky.social•18 days ago

I hope EA sells their studios to a less insane company.

mattcyborg.bsky.social•19 days ago

Extraction shooter? Good riddance, no one wants that game. That is not TF3, sorry. It's a shame about the team though. What a nightmare of an industry.

tllgy.bsky.social•18 days ago

Big companies don't bastardize a beloved IP to cash in on the most recent game type craze challenge: fucking impossible

brinnyxtreme.bsky.social•19 days ago

You summed this up as well as I wanted to

jamzyb.bsky.social•19 days ago

My thoughts exactly

monkeyboy1337.bsky.social•19 days ago

Hear, hear.

xkernalsandersx.bsky.social•19 days ago

Is Respawn going to get shut down and thrown out the door now? That's the EA way

carrion0409.bsky.social•19 days ago

Eventually, yes. Or they'll get the raven software treatment and be shoved into the battlefield mines.

tranterminus.bsky.social•19 days ago

Yup, it sure was to make way for Apex Legends.

enbyboything.bsky.social•18 days ago

compromisedlogic.bsky.social•19 days ago

It's actually insane how badly they're handling this franchise

jemeralddragoon.bsky.social•19 days ago

@hutchybear.bsky.social Please tell me what "revenue" has to do with this. 🤔

hutchybear.bsky.social•19 days ago

Wow I can't believe you pirated this game.

captmushy.bsky.social•19 days ago

Masterful gambit EA!
God fr tho, this company fucking sucks lol.

lostsunrise7.bsky.social•19 days ago

Made two successful Star Wars Games.

Made a Battle Royale that managed to survive against Fortnite.

Still gets laid off so that the CEO can get a few more millions in bonus.

Yup. It's another modern video game industry moment.

johnbull.wtf•19 days ago

Well. At least they popped all our bubbles before we started getting too excited I guess...

waitforgot.bsky.social•19 days ago

Apex is a huge percentage of EAs income so of course they're gonna punish respawn :/

doompacifist.bsky.social•19 days ago

AGAIN ?!

weinerbones.bsky.social•19 days ago

At this point who do I need to give fellatio to in order to get titanfall 3
