Well, I guess we know where EA is really going with this.<br><br>
Anyone want to put up an unranked server now?<br>
I suspect when we do, ours will be empty.<br><br>
Note that as good as BIA was, it died as a Multi-user online game<br>
as will it's add on, which features Co-Op with 2 people commanding<br>
teams on the same side. WOW! Dead already.<br><br>
I await COD2, and DOD:Source. Have not heard anything
negative<br>
re:Valve, but they still have time for stupidity... Maybe we will get
lucky.<br><br>
BTW. We should congratulate EA on the LOSS of rights to what
is<br>
probably the hottest, and finest baseball game since 3DO's
High-Heat<br>
Baseball. They really are stupid. Check out this months
PCGamer for<br>
the story. is very much like an updated version, graphics of
3DO.<br>
Very very Nice game, but they won't see a thing because they signed
away<br>
licensing for the next 7 years! Doh! Fire that guy.... Sorry,
this is EA...<br>
Promote him! I smell the Peters principle at work at this
company,<br>
and it appears to extend all the way to the top.<br><br>
Perhaps they should hack off and terminate the upper portion of the<br>
management, promote from within, and they have a chance. The guys<br>
in the trenches know it as well, but they can't exactly bite the
hand<br>
that feeds them..<br><br>
