‘Star War Jedi: Survivor’ Performing ‘Very Strongly’ Against EA Expectations And ‘Fallen Order’

EA’s most recent earnings call for the quarter ending on March 31 does not include Star Wars Jedi: Survivor which launched on April 28. However, EA made a point to express that the game is performing very, very well this early.

Recently got the game myself. Solid game, really. But it’s still unpolished. Also, you need EA app to play on PC, which requires online. Haven’t experienced it myself, but apparently if EA app gets shut down, you can’t play the game.

That doesn’t sound like a very solid game to me

Wow this is bad, but that the very least they didn't do the mass layoffs like Acti-Blizz

Hey they need that money to pay their CEOs of millions of dollars, and create monopolies. Can't be giving raises with all these record profits.

Since when has leading by example worked out for anything!

The whole EA app thing is its own issue. I did a quick google search, and it does look like people have been asking for an offline mode since the app beta days. This also means you can't play other singleplayer games like JFO, Dragon Age, Mass Effect, or Dead Space Remake offline

....Which is really weird, because even if you buy JS on steam you still need EA app, but Dead Space Remake doesn't need that and can be played just on steam. I swear EA games are really inconsistent in that regard.

Anyways, I strongly argue to wait to get JS at least few more months for patches, and possible discounts

Knowing Ed’s habit of teasing shit, gotta be a catch. No way it’ll just be a bloody remake. Seems to be too much build up. Plus, they should know how well and truly pissed fans would be if it wasn’t the next full fledged MK, myself included.

If anyone’s in the market for a new gaming TV-

Wow! Amazon just slashed $700 off this 65-inch Sony OLED TV in Memorial Day sale

The 65-inch Sony Bravia XR A80K OLED TV just crashed in price

Apparently it also has special PS5 features, being you know, a Sony.

I have a feeling they won't get to Undercover Cops until Volume 3. Why do they have to put these games out in volumes? Just give me the whole collection and be done with it.

It is a bit shitty (correction, REALLY shitty) to harass the people who only worked on the game based on the decision made by upper management asshats. Hey asshats, how about making decisions to deliver quality products so no one has to suffer?

At least they bother to callout the dimwits with nothing better to do in their lives.

EA should really learn to do both.

How about delivering a quality product so no one has to suffer?

So here's the thing: "The Gamers" have issued death threats over things such as a sniper rifle's refire time being adjusted by fractions of a second. Some people will be asshats only until their foreheads are met with a baseball bat.

Make sure the top of that bat is wrapped in barb and razor wire for good measure.

But they were all of them deceived, for another mmo was greenlit. In the land of Amazon, in the fires of the Fulfillment Center, the Dark Lord Bezos commissioned in secret another mmo, to control all others. And into this mmo he poured his cruelty, his malice, his billions and his will to dominate all entertainment. One mmo to rule them all!
