Destructoid - Electronic Arts has been attacking Activision and Call of Duty to an extreme degree as we grow closer to November. While Activision has been doing its best to ignore any mudslinging, EA has been having a rather one-sided argument, trash talking its more stoic rival in a shameless manner.
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
Chance Glasco, one of the co-founders of Infinity Ward and creators of the Call of Duty franchise, has claimed that Activision once pressured the studio to include an invasion of Israel by Iran.
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
awww look its destructoid coming to rescue its master. lol
The Question: Is Activision stupid enough to continue letting the press compare PC BF3 to 360 MW3?
Look around it's not going too well for mw3 the hate for cod is spreading like wildfire. I'm enjoying it
the games will talk for themselves
How many of us talk crap to eachother when we are playing the game... Someone call 911 becuse I just stole your pride!
Looks like EA wants to be like it's customers :)
Well EA has run their campaign as brilliantly as Barrack Obama did. Too bad it'll have about the same results in the end.
People comparing MW3 trailers which are running off 6 year old Xbox 360 hardware, compared to super high end PC Battlefield 3 trailers which are run off PC's that I personally don't know a single person in real life actually has.
Then EA tries to trash talk, in the end it's not going to do them any good. COD fans are so widespread it really wont matter. If you like COD and I mean really like how it plays and your swayed by the graphics of BF3, you are going to be disappointed when you play the game on console. Not only do Battlefield games play nothing like COD games, but they are so slow paced they can put you to sleep.
COD fans like action, 60 FPS and the online community. All those things are definitely what Battlefield wont have.
I know Activision is hated here for some reason, but where I come from EA is the worst of the worst and eventually they will screw you over. They have already started to ruin games like Dragon Age and Mass Effect. Wait till we start getting an annual Battlefield/Medal Of Honor game. They already bought the NFL license and wont share the Porsche license since Forza is slapping their racing game around. They also charge for online passes, you cant even get a roster update on Madden without one.
Let's not forget good'ol EA's new "Season pass" where you can download an EA Sports game 3 days in advance from release .....but only for an added subscription price...
Now let's part with that old EA saying "Get the fuck out of my building".
