Zampella has turned Respawn into a juggernaut. Maybe the next Battlefield wont be a mess.

javycane · January 25, 2022, 2:09pm

Dont think they are making Battlefront 3. Probably something like Republic commando.

Vivir · January 25, 2022, 2:09pm

Zampella living his best life

javycane · January 25, 2022, 2:09pm

Should be good for Battlefield in like 7 years then.

Us in our 30’s playing Zampella’s BF

There was major stalls because ARM is like 95% of the phone processors, and Nvidia has nasty background when it comes to partners

sure whatever you want to call it really, as long as respawn is working on it

not like the Battlefronts have some continuity

Sparda3g · January 25, 2022, 2:16pm

Call of Duty will be great again; I want Battlefield to follow.

pg2g · January 25, 2022, 2:17pm

Can’t wait to play them in Game Pass, lol

Joe_Sinister1 · January 25, 2022, 2:18pm

Or they let Gears be Gears and make a new IP.

I’m down, respawn really is the only thing EA has going for it right now.

BadNews · January 25, 2022, 2:19pm

So hyped for this, and I am not even that huge of a star wars fan, but love it’s world. Also I assume that strategy game will be XCOM style

javycane · January 25, 2022, 2:22pm

Its by a studio made of former xcom devs so safe bet.

SuikerBrood · January 25, 2022, 2:26pm

Big enough news for a thread. Please continue posting about the three announced EA games there.

Thank you.

2 posts were merged into an existing topic: Respawn making 3 new Star Wars games for EA, including Jedi: Fallen Order sequel

I think supporting PC is what pushed the success of these games eventually… Don’t have much of the data here but SoT 5M on steam is indicative of the fact tha PC helped xbox after its bad start.

And there are many ips like Sunset overdrive, Ryde quantum break etc which I feel were flopped because of bad start of xbox.

DARK-PARADISE:

…[Conker developer on ActiBlizz IP revival under MS]

I don’t understand what they mean by this. Killer Instinct, Perfect Dark, Battletoads just from Rare were/are being brought back. And we also have Fable in the works, and then Phil just openly saying he would like to bring more franchises back from Activision even before the deal is close. Of course there are still questions, especially how Banjo is still not revived yet, that just doesn’t make sense. But overall, I don’t think Phil is just saying things, they actually did and are reviving dormant IP, and I think now with more teams and workforce from ActiBlizz that can be expanded. And also consider, they can’t force the studios to make them, they either offer and find a right fit or get a right pitch from the teams themselves.

People like to ignore things that don’t fit their narratives.

Ruthwik_Rao · January 25, 2022, 3:47pm

I have reservations against Actiblizz acquisition myself, but I can still recognize its nowhere close to trying to acquire ARM.

Hearthian · January 25, 2022, 4:11pm

I think this is what it really comes down to. A probable reason why we haven’t got a new Banjo yet for instance is that no one knows what to do with it. Some didn’t like Nuts & Bolts because it wasn’t the Banjo game they wanted but Yooka Laylee wasn’t received that well either.
