Then you should know better!
And no national culture is not monolithic, some less than others. But like stereotypes, they stem from the average perceptions, and will always have some truth to it.
I agree that to fully explore the area, would require much more work tho, yes for sure.
Tell me what I did?
I simply explained what the poster meant. And know better according to whom?
Are there rules that when something is mentioned, you need to include the complete scope and method used, this is a forum.
But again, what did I do?
I was not the original poster, I just explained and agreed that DICE may very well be influenced by a more feminine culture than non Swedish developers.
Oh, the horror!
Besides, my ire wasn’t directly aimed at you; you didn’t introduce the shoddy sociology.
Maybe years ago when consoles all ran on different chipsets.
No excuse anymore simply no excuse
I know someone who works for them and whenever she tells anyone she usually follows it up with “please don’t hate me”.
She’s gotta make a living somehow, take what you can get.
I could care less about the woman characters at this point. I understand some liberties will be taken in these games, and am fine with that.
I just want BF, to be BF and be very good at just BF, like it used to be.
The game should work as well. After you pay for it you should be able to count it working properly, and the way your used to after 4 months.
Besides, we are not our jobs.
You should go tell some higher ups at EA that, they might throw you from the roof if you’re lucky.
Then I think you are looking at laissez faire attitudes and corporate greed.
That’s pretty much what I told her the first time she said it to me. “It’s a living. SQUARK!” lol.
They’re remastering Metro?
The whole problem with this reasoning is that DICE sure is Swedish (at least partly) but the decisions are taken by EA which is a company with ‘all american’ values. Not the slightest socialism in sight there, just the raw capitalism and money grab mentality. Do less for more is the motto. For us who have played since BF1942, it is evident that the more influence that has come from that ‘all manly’ american side, the worse things has got when it comes to this franchise.
Need sandbags to soak up all the tears flooding these forums.
DICE is a hot mess. This will be the last DICE title I buy after over a decade of support. " Consensus" is just another term for “lack of leadership”. Nobody is in charge at DICE, everything is a soy infused committee of poor decisions and even worse follow through. I enjoyed the demo, then realized it was just snake oil that had very little resemblance to the released game, I haven’t played this garbage in over 3 months, and none of my long term BF friends (some I’ve been playing BF with since BF2:MC released on xbox in 2005) even play the game anymore. good job DICE, you killed your player base when COD titles couldn’t.
Amen, brother. The money grab with a crappy game that also has bad content is why I said that I believe we are being treated like crap. It seems to be the corporate standard for everything these days.
please dont RL stuff … curs then i have LOT to say …
GGG has a cringing style of making videos. But he’s right in what he says through the digestion inducing beats of popular technolounge music with a copy+paste slicked voice-over.
Safe to say that you’re part of the problem then?
