lol... what happened to self-publishing?

 

EDIT: Warface is a really crappy game from what I've played on PC imo, plus this is on 360

"The team will likely be looking at larger scale titles, as ID@Xbox and the ability for indies to self-publish on Xbox One will be handled elsewhere"

2nd sentence of the article.

"plus this is on 360"

your point?

 

 

This sounds like they are doing AAA, Free 2 play and Indie games... or publishing them. Hopefully they will scout the right talent and not just indie / F2P games.

it'll look really bad on 360, it uses cryengine 3 iirc

 

and what's the point in this team when you can self-publish?

Why does Titanfall / Respawn need EA, they can self publish on Steam, Xbox One and PS4?
Why does Quantic Dream need Sony? They can self publish it.

 

You don't know much about this, do you?
