Wasn't that one of the reasons why they decided to close down the EA Partners publishing label?EA almost always lets their partners keep their IPs.

I think Titanfall is the last "active" IP from that program (i.e. that EA is publishing but doesn't own).
Would be interesting seeing a DICE developed Crysis.
NO. GOD. PLEASE, NO GOD NO. NO. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.gif
Leave DICE with Battlefield and Mirror's Edge, please. I don't need them working on a sci-fi shooter that didn't gain traction with the namesake ("cry"tek) dev. :|
Sure, that sounds like a plan. I enjoyed what I played of Darksiders 2.Get that Darksiders IP of Crytek and start the sequel next lads.
Where do Deep Silver get their money from? They have published Dead Island and SR4 and I am sure those games did well but not that well. So what gives??
Good to hear Crytek UK's staff should still be okay. Hope if Crytek USA goes under that someone steps in (cough Nintendo). I'd love to see Darksiders 3 be done by the guys from Vigil.
Regardless, anyone else concerned about Deep Silver's expansion? Isn't this the same stuff that got Crytek into the trouble it's in?
Their parent company Koch Media does much more than publishing video games and is doing quite well:Where do Deep Silver get their money from? They have published Dead Island and SR4 and I am sure those games did well but not that well. So what gives??
Deep Silver needs to slow down. They are starting to look like...well...Crytek of 2 years ago.
honestly I'm not sure why Koch media and Deep Sliver care this much about Homefront, it's not a big IP and there is no crazy big fanbase following the original game for them to buy the IP and start a new studio just for it.
I mean this is the same Deep Sliver that didn't care about buying the Red Faction IP after getting Volition, but now they buy a lesser IP (Homefront) and might even hire the lazy guys from Crytek UK to work on this. this is just weird.
Didn't Deep Silver shut down their own studio in Vienna a few years ago? They made Cursed Mountain for Wii.
That was ages ago tho. Just cause they used to make good games doesn't excuse what they make nowWhy is there so much hate for Crytek around this place?
I mean sure, the upper management is completely dumb, but they have some of the most talented employees in the business. They produced three really fantastic games (Farcry, Crysis, Crysis warhead) that still are better single player Fps games than anything else this gen.

Why do companies want the Homefront IP so bad? I don't see that name carrying much weight.
This ip is crap. Why do people keep buying it?
Guess Crytek is pretty much done for... what a sad story, never expected to see the maker of original Far Cry and Crysis to go down like this. Also, it really sucks how CryEngine never managed to become popular with the devs, despite being able to produce arguably the best technical visuals in the industry.

Crytek will retain a presence in Austin, with several staff members maintaining the CRYENGINE support team to assist North American licensees. Employees who are not set to be part of that support team will be invited to apply for new positions at Crytek in Germany.
Monies is when something is proven to be reasonably profitable despite quality, such as the Scary Movie line and its related spawn.Because monies
