There's something to be said about a game that encourages teamwork while still providing both enough of a challenge and reward for going in with a group, versus running solo. It's something that a lot of modern FPS titles have all but given up on. Sure we get those documentary style videos highlighting the importance of teamwork to take objectives, eliminate players and call in air strikes, but the fact remains that most mainstream games simply aren't built to handle teamwork. It would be too alienating to have players constantly work together in every single title, when most are just interested in jumping online and racking up as many kills as they could possibly imagine. Hence my appreciation for the Battlefield series, which has always put two gameplay elements first and foremost: Teamwork, and blowing stuff up.
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.

When logic meets EA it generates anti-matter ..... so try not to apply it in any meaningful way. Entropy is what matters in there !!
cue the apologist saying that these are mostly just contractors hired for this specific project bla bla bla
The free-to-play reboot topped 15 million players in under three weeks, but EA now claims it needs to reshape the development team.
The community warned them this would happen but nope they knew better they continued with the live service push the made the art style cartoonish and this is the result
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
The Congressional Labor Caucus sent a letter to the FTC warning the debt-financed, largely PIF-owned deal could be bad news for workers
lol ya think? they're sending all that work to the cheaper labor market as soon as possible. and FYI, that labor market has exploded in the last 5-10 years. They have enough people to replace every single job. But honestly, EA is over filled with useless upper management as it is. You could probably trim 25% of their staff with no real loss in production. They aren't gamers, they're business execs. Just look at how many AI related jobs they're already starting to post. Its also hilarious that PIF owns Battle field 6
Wait,
The same congress that attacked Lina Khan when she fought the Microsoft Activision purchase.
The same congress that allowed Disney to buy 90% of Fox
The same congress that allowed Liv Golf to buy the PGA
The same congress that sits back while Paramount tries a hostile takeover despite losing the bid for Warner Bros.
NOW, the suddenly cares about doing what's "right" for works? Yeah, right.
EA now owned by The Saudis and Ubisoft to inevitably be owned by China. In hindsight, once EA and Ubisoft started having their financial woes, they should have pulled a Koei Tecmo/Bandai Namco by merging their operations into one.
I was pretty psyched myself, even before the first gameplay trailer hit. That just made it made my anticipation levels reach fever pitch.
Dragging a downed teammate may seem like such a small thing, but it'll definitely do wonders for the medics, especially since getting out to defib them usually means dying in the process if you're not careful.
BF3 is going to be epic.
