Irrational laying off staff. Warhorse, your opportunity for hirings :)

As can be read here, written by Ken Levine:

He seems now more interested in smaller, more focused games made with small team. So most Irrational members will be laid off.
I know Warhorse are hiring people now to ramp up for full development - maybe this could be good opportunity to get some talented folks ? After all, Irrational did put out some of the most artistically accomplished games ever made.

Was this the “gift” they received for valentine’s day? :angry: :thumbsdown:

irrational game’s art style and vision completely incompatible…to be honest, terrible and cartoon-like, more suited to generic fantasy game. and they’re north american, so even less likely.

You are absolutely clueless. ^^^

You do realize that Irrational also made System Shock 2, Tribes, SWAT 4? Do you realize that good artist is good at variety of styles, not just one? And do you realize that CDProjekt, which is located next to Czechland, in Poland, has people of 19 different nationalities, including plenty of Americans ?

I suppose not, since if you did, you would probably not write such a clueless post.

I liked SWAT 4 very much, whether lethal or non-lethal playthrough.
Wedging the doors and throwing a couple of tear gas grenades into the room. :smiley:
Would be great if they would do another game in the series.
Can’t imagine how awesome that would be with today’s technology.

actually, i do. i’ve owned swat 4. tribes and swat 4’s art was horrendous. i mean it’s not that difficult to create human models but they screwed up so badly. but maybe their programmers can help warhorse copy lines of code, and their artists can help warhorse process the models and optimize them. but do not trust them to do the more difficult stuff, they suck at it.

also, north americans. not even possible. if they go to warhorse, they should pay their own living expenses and plane ticket, imho.
