Reddit user gets internal EA emails, gets details about Fe and A Way Out

[Admiral Woofington]

It's not snide, it's pure venom.

Don't be excited about these games. Don't give EA money. They don't have your best interests in mind, they are just greed personified.

(and yet somehow EA Access remains a good value...)

Look I'm all for not giving EA my money and I've ignored most game of theirs forever now except for a rare one from Bioware here and there.

But I'll be a hypocrite once again because a new game from the brothers developers is something I've wanted for so long.

 

[808s & Villainy]

No, but this one was expected regardless.

They've had one in Janurary of 2013, 2015, and 2017 and had December Directs on even years

Fe is by Zoink. Zoink is awesome. I'm feeling pretty ok about looking forward to it despite EA as the publisher.

 

[Qvoth]

don't think i've ever heard of fe

 

[mrglcs]

Shit, I forgot A Way Out was an EA game. Urge to buy has died down.

[Can I really be the hero?]

Oh wow haha! I hadn't heard of either of these, I thought this thread was going to be about EA's internal discussions of a way out of the lootbox/BF2 issue.

 

[Tecnniqe]

2019 for Way Out, damn.

Looking forward to it.

 

[Compsiox]

Well that's 2 TGA reveals down (PUBG map being other).

They've had one in January every year since 2013.

There was no global Direct in January, 2014 and there was no January Direct, period, in 2016.

That year, 2015, and 2017 and had December Directs on even years

I'm assuming that's what you meant by this, but your first sentence doesn't correlate with your second.

Yeah, just wonky editing on my part after I checked

 

[ArjanN]

I assume the Josef line about controversy is just that for EA suits it's scary to make a specific relatively unknown person the face of a game, because if next week he says something dumb on twitter it might affect their bottom line.

 

[CJShields]

A Way Out hasn't been delayed to 2019. Interview with the game's Writer and Director Josef Fares here confirms that it's still set for 2018.

 

[Punchline]

I think i finally get why they were worried about controversy about josef

 

[Mr. Pointy]

EA: Welp. Shit.

 

[warheat]

guy was high as fuck, it will be the new Konami 2011

That and the trailer has the same name as the one in the image.

2019 seems to have been a typo.

 

[Asbsand]

Fucking Lmao at the new context for "Need to watch out for controversy with Josef"
FUCK THE OSCARS, YO! *Shoves middle-finger in the camera*

 

[goldenageoftelevision]

Maybe it was all scripted and planned from ea?

 

[Deleted member 249]

Does this leak still stand true? Now that we know the game launches in 2018?

No, it's 2019, but they'll say 2018 so people keep thinking and talking about it. A harmless white lie.

Doubt it

But it was no "leak" that Fares is an outspoken and somewhat cringy guy to have on stage. He's been like that since forever, and he had a "preview" of his TGA performance during E3 even. It was easy enough to put a "fares is alright, but he talks his ass off watch out" in any faked piece

The trailer that was at the Game Awards was called "Meet Vincent and Leo" just like in the email. The 2019 was probably just a typo.
