DICE, Visceral producer leaving EA

Dragacane has pikachu as his picture. Why bother arguing with him/her?

EA is GREAT

EA is a bad place to work, for one is not very rewarding working for evil maga corporation, then like many others he maybe believes that EA is going down hill do to miss management... and your creative freedoms are very much being limited working in a mega corporate environment where statistical data is the deciding factor what and how to develop - and not creativity and limit pushing.. i would not wanna stay either if i would be successful in the game developing industry

@Dragacane They have been much better than CoD from the beginning... Point 1: Destructible environments Point 2: Scale (map size + # of players) Point 3:Vehicles PC-centric FPS games rule.

Sorry but they are more awesome and also better than CoD games Dragacane...

I hope the Battlefield games will be just as awesome and better than Call of Duty game

@robfield EA doesn't necessarily have to be a bad place to work if he's leaving. Maybe he just wants some change in his work.

Maybe (hopefully) he'll get hired at Respawn Ent.

Hope this doesn't conflict with Battlefield3

Message to EA: Hire more loyal employees or be a more appealing company. There has to be something going on at EA, one of the top publishers in the industry, to make high level employees want to leave.

Very interested in where he's going.

Hopefully the new Battlefield games are going to be good even without him

I wish him luck to where he's headed.

I dont really see this as being news, the man who was a associate producer for some of worst battlefield titles.... Battlefield is really a pc game - 2 of these titles never made it to pc, 2142 was a lame mod for the best battlefield game ever made BF2. And bfbc2 was a poor console game conversion to the pc. God I just want another real battlefield game again and so far with what they have shown for bf3, BF2 will always be the ultimate shining star for this franchise.

Visceral just won't be the same without... without... What was his name again?

I say that GS only starts publishing news about the ongoings of Exec Producers, Lead Designers, Lead Art Designers, etc.... It is just getting a bit much when we start making the quality control guy at Visceral and his career moves a news story. Not that he isn't important but lets be honest, I doubt he will be missed in a massive company like EA.

EA's the posterchild of what NOT to do. This is good news.

@domainestickem You're the one that clicked the article.

Thats it?? I was expecting a crazy ending to the story. Wasted 2 minutes of my day.

He's joining PSN branch obviously.

i cant believe i actually read this sh**

who the hell cares!!!?

Farmville 2

No idea who this man is, but I wish him good luck and hope he finds whatever he was looking for in his new job

I'm holding my breath... /sarcasm

Good luck!

My money's on social games.

looks like everyone is leaving EA LOL

Six years in one place is a long time nowadays. Most people bounce around from job to job, if they can ensure the job security, which a gaming producer most likely can. I'm sure they're sad to see him go, but I'm sure a new company will love him and even Dice and Visceral will benefit by getting fresh blood to keep their games interesting rather than derivative.

to the new company! *cheers
