EA has open sourced Command & Conquer: Red Alert under GPLv3
-
Abusers will often buy gifts to placate the victim. It's a cheap and empty move that changes nothing in the end. Do not be fooled.
-
Are you okay? They open sourced some classic video games. They didn't roofie your drink.

Well I'm very excited to see the injection of life this hopefully gives c&c modding
I wonder how many of the old guard are still around, I'm glad the cncnet project is still going strong

Go ahead and fall for their PR campaign. You wouldn't be the first and you won't be the last.
-
I'm ready for a zero hour remake!

Fall for what? They did one of the most pro-consumer moves they possibly could. It's legally solid and irrevocable. It doesn't mean I have to give a shit about their next live service game or be happy that they monetize soccer video games with gambling for children.

Mmmmm pre-standard C++

It’s a kick ass game but some of the tropes didn’t age well.
-
I wish.
I have dry balls.

I'm sorry but comparing this to domestic abuse is just insane

It's literally the exact same tactic

Putting in an awful lot of effort defending EA already for someone that doesn't give a shit

Loved Renegade so much. Played the shit out of the MP back in the day.
-
EA ? Did I read right ?
-
They roofied my drink.
-
I am under the impression that lemmy is more negative than reddit
-
They never said they don't give a shit, they're clearly happy that the broken clock was right this time of day. Nobody is praising EA as a company, but this one particular action they have taken is pretty based
-
EA doesn’t open source old games: EA are scum and anti-consumer.
EA open sources old games: EA are scum and anti-consumer.
If it’s good it must be bad, right?

That's correct
