DevQ Posted October 27, 2005 Posted October 27, 2005 I was on the official Westwood site & I try to found something about Emp & nothing!!! Whole page about Comand & Conquer ?!On EA games site the same. :'(Good God thanks for dune2k.comĀ :'( :-
erjin999 Posted October 27, 2005 Posted October 27, 2005 There was a page somewhere on their sites somewhere, but it was crap. And there is the help stuff, in the FAQs, I think.Basically yeah, its not worth it being there, all Hail Dune2k.com. Our slogan should be:"What EA shoulda been" :P
DjCiD Posted October 27, 2005 Posted October 27, 2005 unless you know that address for that page, how do you navigate to it?What is the link to it? Is it on WW/EA site? Or maybe from the EMP:bfd disk itself?If theres no link to that page, what's the point of it? Isn't it like a dead page. Only if you know the address can you access it...
erjin999 Posted October 27, 2005 Posted October 27, 2005 http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&lr=&q=link:4mkLhJV9EZMJ:www.duneemperor.com/Ja, Google will find it. But like I said before, useless.Who is she ? ;) ;)
Nuvollari Posted October 27, 2005 Posted October 27, 2005 Lol dev i like Ur Corsair icon..i play sc :D
DevQ Posted October 27, 2005 Author Posted October 27, 2005 Gobalopper have you ever open this site ??? there is only information that:"The Emperor Site is no longer hosted by Westwood Studios." so if you want to know about Emp you can on dune2k.comI don't want to say that dune2k.com is bad site (I think it's the best page about Emp I've ever seen!) but i think that westwood is obliged to HOST official Emp site because Westwood is author of the game!Nuvollari lol Corsairs rulesĀ ;DI play starcraft tooĀ ;)
DjCiD Posted October 27, 2005 Posted October 27, 2005 WW/EA abanoned EMP:bfd a long time ago, and made that page as to show the ppl that would by the remaining copies off the shelf, a place to go to have a community.My only thought is, if there is no link to that page from some other EA/WW page then how will they be able to access it.Ā :-
erjin999 Posted October 27, 2005 Posted October 27, 2005 My only thought is, if there is no link to that page from some other EA/WW page then how will they be able to access it.Ā :-I hear you DjDude.
Gobalopper Posted October 29, 2005 Posted October 29, 2005 Isn't duneemperor.com the website they use in the manual? Or do they use westwood.com?
Dark_Magiks Posted October 29, 2005 Posted October 29, 2005 I am curious as to why E:BFD was abandoned by Westwood and EA games? Personally I think its one of the best RTS games either have produced, and it also has got several good reviews (look at gamespots) I think with a few more origional ideas it would have been an all time superstar in the RTS world.EA games make me sick so I am very annoyed that they bought out WestwoodĀ :'(, I fail to believe that it is possible for there to be another Dune game, if there is I hope they listen to most people at this board who would know what it would take to make it better.So anyone know why it was abandoned?
Gobalopper Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 It didn't sell in the numbers that EA was expecting/wanted so they slowly started dropping it after release.
Nuvollari Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 Like gobal said...EAGAMESSPORTSBLABLA are only into money...If there is no money they'ill stop to support it.....Thats whhy i love Blizzard becuz they support very well their games.
GUNWOUNDS Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 Of course they do it for the money...its not for charity.
Mahdi Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 Which reminds me *coughIwantmykickbackthisain'tnocharitycough*.
Nuvollari Posted November 6, 2005 Posted November 6, 2005 Gun,,can u tell me why all the Blizzard's games have such a high rate of sellingĀ ;D
veK Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 who needs an official page anyway if he found his way to this page?Ā :O
erjin999 Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 Doesnt seem to be ovely happy with these pages. Its not the same as a glossy webpage for a game.Ā :'(
DevQ Posted November 8, 2005 Author Posted November 8, 2005 who needs an official page anyway if he found his way to this page?Ā :Omaybe you have right but when I see that the author of game "is no longer support the emperor site"I think that he has forgot about players & he think only about his comand & conquer.I don't want say that I think that comand & conquer is bad game & I don't like it :-But it isn't the one westwood game.Westwood think about money not about players.Westwood don't want to support any Emp. website because comand & conq. give him more profits than Emp.
veK Posted November 8, 2005 Posted November 8, 2005 actually there is no westwood at all devq - it's all EA... and yes, THEY do suckĀ >:(
erjin999 Posted November 8, 2005 Posted November 8, 2005 I am suprised you say that, veK, especially considering your sig (!) :PWhen did they officially remove support ? Is it official ? When did they remove the pages ??Anyone ?
Schorpie Posted November 8, 2005 Posted November 8, 2005 As far I remember the 'real' support of westwood ended pretty quickly. Why? emperor didn't sell, RA2 did. But there were still official ladders, clan ladders, etc up. But there were no patches anymore.After 3 years westwood putted the clanladder offline, because of inactivity.and not long after that westwood didn't excist anymore because of EA. And it is since then that all support ended.correct me if i'm wrong...
DevQ Posted November 10, 2005 Author Posted November 10, 2005 actually there is no westwood at all devq - it's all EA... and yes, THEY do suck
gunner154 Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 So what the heck does Westwood do? Even Generals is under EA and not under Westwood. Hell, they even removed the classic "Command & Conquer" design title and replaced it with this gay title design with a crosshair.
