Reality Studios Acquisition - APRIL FOOLS!!!

[Arc_Shielder]

Find funny that some are still wondering if it's true or not. There are several signs around that indicate that it is false, a couple of devs are even joking in this thread.

Geez, lighten up people.

so you bought a game for a mod that wasn't even released yet??

that was smart...

yea, so did every other true fan of PR.... you know what never mind your right.

BTW i think this should finalize the true or false debate:

[R-DEV]Gaz "... a LOT of people have already assumed this is a joke. We got bored of joking on April 1st 2 years ago. We're still committed to putting out a quality final release of PR BF2."

EA acquiring the PR team would be all bad, frankly I can't understand why anyone would be excited for this. It's a good move for anyone on the PR team, as this would mean getting decent and regular pay and great work experience to boot. But it would be terrible for the actual game and concept of PR.

PR, I feel, is a very niche game, meant for a specific audience. Corporations like EA operate on a profit motive (bottom line is to make money). These two facts combined insures that PR wouldn't be PR as we understand it if EA was in ownership of it's fate. It simply wouldn't make enough money, EA wouldn't take that risk. It's why you don't see games being released by big companies that take realism and teamwork to the level PR does.

My point, really, is that PR is too awesome to ever fall into the greedy hands of big business. If anything, this joke (I'm assuming) has inspired me to donate to the PR team in the realization that they don't make steady money from this endeavor, and PR is important enough to me that I'll give it money even if I don't have to.

Don't any of you lot read EA's press releases anymore?

[Staker]

I'm sure you're just expecting us to expect that you would expect us to expect your expetations, so we would expect that it would or wouldn't be an april fools joke.

Since the developers are confirming it's true so I guess we have to take their word for it....

Why would you post something like this on april 1st when it's not a joke? You have to have done that on purpose, why? You think the best way to finnish is to fuck with the whole communtiy? I hope that made you happy, because it sure had the opposite effect on the communtiy.

I sure hope you make quite an impact on BF3 so I've got something to look forward to.

I am officially disappointed that you won't even make a first release of PR:Arma 2
Not cool, won't be the same thing with ACE PVP. I know they're not going to properly use that material.

Because the 1st of april is the start of a new month and ussually news goes out around this time.
