That could explain Dirt 5 in Game Pass.

 

[Gediminas]

so, people. how long do you give them to exist?

 

[FrozenFlame]

Obligatory:

 

[Certinty]

I love Codemasters and hate EA but honestly I think this is the lesser evil than Take Two buying them.

 

[Sander Cohen]

My sincere condolences.

 

[Senua]

 

[Impotaku]

we are EA your unique ip will be assimilated and added to our own.

 

[DrAspirino]

I think it's a good move (for EA). Codemasters know how to make games with a lot of DLC, which is a "plus" for EA to keep it alive and kicking. The problem is that we, the consumers, get screwed once again. =/

 

[chilleverest]

You had a good run Codemasters. F.

Dirt 4 is leaving Gamepass so I don't think EA Play is the reason for Dirt 5, not yet.

[Mr Moose]

I could've sworn we knew this months ago, is it just official now or something?

RIP in peace

Rest in peace in peace?

Can´t wait for the next pay 2 win Formula 1 game. I´m sure they will find a way to charge the player for new tires and additional qualifying laps. So many opportunities.

damn. codemasters had such an interesting start too. founded by high school kids who made GB 200k at the age of 16/17 respectively in the late 80s. i remember seeing a picture of them posing next to a ferrari they couldn't even drive bc they didn't have a driver's license.

It's like EA eats all the genius creator self starters that grew to challenge EA itself.
I spit on EA.

Now you understand the severity of this issue.

Codemasters is deader than dead.

It's been a meme on GAF for years. I forget the origin.

 

[Dr.D00p]

..and the Codemasters board of directors go off to count their Judas gold.

The new subsidury name for Codemasters will be EA Darlings.

Hey Codemasters...

 

[turtlepowa]

Dirt 4 is leaving Gamepass so I don't think EA Play is the reason for Dirt 5, not yet.

Yeah, but 4 came a year after the release to Game Pass. Nothing special. Dirt 5 came after 4 months. I was already wondering when i saw that,

"Congratulations you completed Austrian Gran Prix in 1st place, in order to continue ur campain u need to unlock the Vietnan Gran Prix for only $9.99."

 

[FranXico]

Wow, they didn't waste any time did they.

/yes joke

 

[kyussman]

As a Brit I love the Codemasters success story...but I feel they have lost that special something they used to have in recent years....I'm having a hard time seeing them find it again under EA but perhaps they have just been lacking resources and EA will provide them with all they need to make great games again.What can I say,I'm a glass half full type of person,lol.

That's old news, no it's: "Pay for a booster pack which will give you several time-limited improvements to your car and driver".

 

[LordCBH]

Time for EA to do what made them famous:

Take the IP, impose goals the purchased studios can't meet, and then close the purchased studios citing those unreasonable goals.
