Activision boss Bobby Kotick has laid into EA a little more, saying the publisher has “lost its way.”
“It’s like, if you have no other option, you might consider them,” he told Edge.
“They have some… the team that makes Madden is a really great team, it’s been able to manage, capture and keep some good people.
“But we have no shortage of opportunity to recruit out of EA – that’s their biggest challenge: its stock options have no value. It’s lost its way.
”Kotick adds EA will “struggle” to find top-notch developers until “it has success, and hits, and gets that enthusiasm back for the company.”
EA is laying off an unknown number of individuals from across its Battlefield teams, including workers at Criterion, Dice, Ripple Effect, and Motive Studios, IGN understands.

It's always so bizarre when studios announce something super early in development under the suggestion of forming the game to player feedback, and then they push against all feedback heading straight for the cliff while everyone is warning them along the way
