Kjølen Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Raven Software, known for making innovative, good games, is having layoffs and shuffled into making CoD maps. Yeah, Activision is run by drunk college frat boys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acdcfanbill Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 I would feel slightly bad, since Activision sucks so much, but Raven hasn't been exactly steller in the game department lately either. Maybe some fat trimming may help them out in the long run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BongoBob Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Yeah, but being reduced to making CoD maps? As an avid MW2 player (hopefully soon to be avid Black Ops player) all I can hope for is that they're good balanced maps unlike the first 3 that Infinity Ward brought out for MW2 (Domination on Salvage is totally fair and balanced, totally -_-).

Liverandbacon Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Raven Software, known for making innovative, good games, is having layoffs and shuffled into making CoD maps. Yeah, Activision is run by drunk college frat boys. Raven's last few games haven't exactly been innovative or stellar, and a studio can only coast on its reputation for so long. However, being relegated to making COD maps is harsh. Hopefully that rumor is just a rumor. Also comparing Activision's leadership to drunk frat brothers is just unfair... to frats. At least fraternities appreciate fun... Activision doesn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BongoBob Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 They're not the only Activision devs to get hit, now Tony Hawk developer Robomodo got hit with huge layoffs. What kills me is just last week, Bobby Kotick took shots at EA, saying they're suffocating studios. And then a week later both Raven Software and Robomodo get butchered.

TiE23 Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 Robomodo were commanded to make Tony Hawk: Ride... It's a shame they weren't given something that could have been good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe some fat trimming may help them out in the long run. I hope you're right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
