Dead Space dev hiring for new online action shooter photo

More shooters! I can barely contain my excitement. Neither could the dude that wrote the new job ad for a lead multiplayer designer at Visceral Games, the house that made Dead Space. The ad says that says that this "thrilling new online action shooter." They also say that working on this game will be an "opportunity to contribute to a bold new franchise which is a cornerstone for a new EA Games Studio."

Dead Space FPS? I'd play that.

We've heard a bit about a sci-fi game, a new game called The Ripper, and solid rumblings on Dead Space 3. And now an online shooter? These guys are keeping busy!

"opportunity to contribute to a bold new franchise which is a cornerstone for a new EA Games Studio."

I might be missing something but how does that equal a Dead Space FPS? Dead Space isn't exactly as new as it is bold.

Dead Space FPS would be a hoot. Or maybe a Dead Space RTS. But not a Dead Space MMORPG. BYOB. NKOTB.

Kill me.

oh look. more fps.

Not like we need another RTS or another fantastic single player experience or anything. Nope. Not like the market is oversaturated or anything. No. Not like Dante's Inferno needs a sequel or anything (inb4 amg god of war rip of huehehue)

Not like....well you get my point.

as long as it is just a standalone Multiplayer and not a tacked on multiplayer like so many games do nowadays.

As long as they keep focused on Dead Space 3 for the time being.... then no problem.

“Well, we did Resident Evil with more gore and then God of War with more gore, what’s next?”

“Um…Call of Duty with more gore?”

“I like it, put out an ad, we need fresh minds for this bold new idea”

I guess I can't nay say now that somebody predicted I would, how dreadfully clever of them.

Besides, it's not like there's a reason to nay say, is there? ;)

Dead Space Extraction 2? I wish PS Move had more support, including decent implementations of control schemes (wtf RE5).

Maybe they're resurrecting that canned game a small team was working on at the time.

How do they know it'll be a "thrilling online shooter" without a lead designer? Hmmmmmm....? That's kind of an important piece of the puzzle. I'd be very wary of joining any team that doesn't have their lead designer yet.

Dear friend. I truly just like your posting and your current web page all in all! That write-up is really plainly composed and without difficulty understandable.
