Again, I don't condone it though. They may be 'stickin it to the man', but more employees will suffer if the company loses sales to a leaked version.
If there's a lesson learned for EA it should be "Use damn Steamworks as DRM and don't try to force everyone into EADL coupled with GFWL or Gamespy".
Crossed Fingers for everyone at PCF - great game, can't wait for 22nd
Fuck the leak! Imma buy this game!!! DICKTITS!
Crysis 2 and Bulletstorm both leaked and both from EA. I think EA want to start checking there own back garden before pointing the guilty stick.
I've got it on pre-order and looking forward to it nonetheless.
might as well lock this thread now.
Sure a wired piss take that costs them shit loads of cash that would float of games...
OR the fact that the game is released in four days, which means that the copies have already been shipped, so it was more likely a gamestop employee or something :P A leak 4 days before release is more or less normal these days.
Crysis was exceptional because it was 50 days before release. :P
anyways, release in 4 days, im very excited, hope you guys will enjoy the dicktits ^^
that is the stupidest thing I have heard all day :P
are you talking about gamestop or PCF/Epic now? ^^ Because its highly unlikely it was a leak from EA or PCF, more likely gamestop or a press copy.
This will be the first game in 6 years that I'll buy on release!
Who says Epic treats their employees like shit? O.o
Is English your first language? If it is, call an ambo, you are having a stroke
Of course I was simply jesting Snef.
People are blowing these leaks way out of proportions (apart from the Crysis one maybe). A lot of the appeal of Bulletstorm is gonna be online/co-op play. Surely its way to risky to play a pirate copy online? Most people who have been waiting for it will buy it.
The thing is you dont need to use a master server to play online, with all the instant VPN software floating about you just need to have a LAN mode and an IP. I dont know what this scene is like now but a few years ago it was massive.
that said, bulletstorm is awesome and you should buy it.
The game comes out in 4 days. It's been through production and distribution at this point. This isn't a PCF/Epic employee leak.
Leaks happen at the manufacturing stage, the press stage, and the distribution stage. Crysis 2 was unique in that it happened while still in development.
Games have always been leaked early. It's not some fucking conspiracy, it's what happens when you have a heavily marketed product with more than a million people interested in it, and a variety of points along the way where any random shlub can leak it.
I know you desperately want to fight the system and denounce The Man, but you just dig yourself into this deeper hole of naivety whenever you post. Lurk more, and make more art and less posts about how the entire industry has no idea what they're doing and/or is a Disney villain.
Hell, when Saints Row 2 was leaked about 2 weeks early we tried joining someone's game with our Volition1 account while he was streaming the game on justin.tv
Honestly, I had forgotten the Epic connection. I was referring to EA, who I have read/heard horror stories from.
That aside, just because it was leaked today, does not mean it wasn't leaked from a developer (or former developer). I had forgotten it was so close to the release date though, so those who have commented, are probably correct (that it was from production/distribution employees).
It's still a leak, but probably not from Epic
like i said in another thread, there is a store near me that was selling MvC3 nearly a week before street date, this stuff is very common.
