The same thing happened when Rockstar Vienna got shut down.
Locks had been exchanged and security guards were preventing the employees from entering.
I thought this thread was about IW...why are we all of a sudden talking about prone/crouch sniping?

latest is that now 18 devs have now left IW to mostly join Respawn Entertainment
The US economy is a giant Ponzi scheme. And 'to big to fail' is code speak for 'niahnahniahniahnah 99 percenters'
Note to self, don't buy anything related to Respawn Entertainment.

Hey, free from Activision's "Make the same thing or else" attitude, they may actually make a cool game.AussieReaper wrote:

another 8 have left bringing the total to 26.

Also some lawsuit filed to do with withheld bonuses/payments or some shit. Whole thing is a mess.
Unfortunately this means Respawn's first game is going to sell tons out of pity and not out of the actual merit of creating a good game.

still will be interesting to see what they come up with though
Activision didn't want them to deviate from the CoD1 formula tbh.Spidery_Yoda wrote:

They forced CoD2 to be a WW2 shooter, and not CoD4. That's how early the rift started. IW were also the ones who wanted to move toward consoles, Activision tried to force them to remain a PC focused dev team. Also, @ myself for constantly hanging shit on Activision when it turns out IW are just as bad.
Whoa... Can't believe these forums are still kicking.
I think what I will find the most interesting is how the game is set up. If it takes the supposedly Activision pushed approach of $15 map packs of old maps, and other such dumb/greedy DLC packs, or if it will be a game in itself.mtb0minime wrote:

WoW has also had its first ingame DLC items (as far as I know anyway) in the last few weeks, I wonder if that had anything to do with Activision.
I know everyone (me included) loves to hate on Bobby Kotick and co, but honestly who knows if it is just Activision pushing this stuff.
Interesting. Doesnt Activision own/produce Guitar Hero etc? Guess they changed their minds.Flecco wrote:

Nah Activision seems to run different studios for different purposes. All about the profits.

Yeah Activision does but IW had nothing to do with it. I think the idea was originally to keep CoD in particular PC-based.TimmmmaaaaH wrote:
