I wonder if Todd Papy will return to Sony Santa Monica.
Well, if you're going to snobbishly insist on distributing through Origin rather than Steam, that is your comeuppance.
Sorry for the staffers, though.
Crytek said:"Regardless of what some media are reporting, mostly based on a recent article published by GameStar, the information in those reports and in the GameStar article itself are rumors which Crytek deny.
"We continue to focus on the development and publishing of our upcoming titles Homefront: The Revolution, Hunt: Horrors of the Gilded Age, Arena of Fate, and Warface, as well as providing ongoing support for our CryEngine and its licensees.
"We have received a lot of positive feedback during and after E3 from both gaming press and gamers, and would like to thank our loyal employees, fans and business partners for their continuous support."
Noooo, i want my Ryse 2 god damn XD
Homefront is like a cursed monkey paw, anyone in possession of it dies.
They can deny it all they want, but I believe there's no smoke without fire.
Sell Ryse to MS. MS make Ryse 2 with Ninja Theory.
Rumblings of Crytek's troubles started this weekend, but my story has a ton of details you won't find anywhere else, based on extensive conversations with 10+ current and former employees over the past few weeks.
This whole thing feels like... The internet stopped caring about what's going on in Naughty Dog and started doing it with Crytek.

How is that snobbish? Would it not also be snobbish if they decided to distribute through Steam rather than Origin? It can't be one and not the other becauseWell, if you're going to snobbishly insist on distributing through Origin rather than Steam, that is your comeuppance.

It's too early to be this drunk, pal. Plus it's Tuesday
That's a good one though. Had me for a second

Someone get on the phone to Phil Spencer to tell him to send those money hats to get the Ryse IP
Didn't pay employees in three months? That wasn't in Germany, was it? SOMEONE would have told the press and you'd have a pretty big shitstorm loooong before now. That's illegal as shit and I don't think Crytek would have been able to keep it secret.
According to Jason's article, even the employees themselves think that Crytek's current F2P approach is bullshit
Welp.
Devs aren't adopting CE and their own games don't sell very well (or are very good either). What else is supposed to happen?
Damn. Sell the IP to MS.
I have no idea why they took that IP.
It would be super irresponsible for me to speculate about something like that. Really, anything could happen -- loans, buyouts, massive staff reductions, sudden turns of fortune...Do you get the impression that the problems are extensive enough that the company might go under in the near future (within the next couple of years)?
Time for MS to buy them.
Damn, I was really hoping for a Ryse sequel. They had a decent base to improve upon.
same hereWhat a mess. I really enjoyed Ryse too.
Damn. Sell the IP to MS.
I don't like you.Sell Ryse to MS. MS make Ryse 2 with Nina Theory.
No one cares about Cry Engine now, I was actually surprised when I saw "everyone goes to rapture" was using it
