madmaltese★ 2,588 Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Capcom Vancouver is no more. The team mostly known for the Dead Rising series. "Capcom is currently reviewing the allocation of its development resources that support the production of world-class content. Capcom has been focused on increasing the efficiency and growth of its game development operations. To support this objective, new R&D facilities and annual hiring have been underway at the Osaka headquarters. In consideration of this process, as a result of reviewing titles in development at Capcom Vancouver, Capcom has decided to cancel the development projects at this studio and will concentrate development of major titles in Japan. https://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2018-09-18-capcom-took-a-usd40-million-loss-on-cancelled-vancouver-projects Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Twinblade★ 3,933 Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 Yikes, they'd rather lose $40 million than continue having the studio make games. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
James Skywalker 528 Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 I worried about Vancouver's vanity. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jehurey 3,240 Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 (edited) I thought Lemcels said that Microsoft was ADDING more studios to make more exclusive games? You know that if you gain new studios..........but then lose other studios, then nothing was added, right? Did they look at Sate of Dookay's 5.0 score and said "wow, that's an upgrade over Dead Rising, guess we don't them anymore!"

102020393023445948594 2,223 Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 this is a direct result of dead rising 4 bombing, though, that you can't deny. what worried me when MS bought the Shit of Decay developers was that they'd let dead rising go and focus on SOD instead. Just like when Phil let street fighter go playstation exclusive because he'd rather double down on Killer Shitstink instead. The man has terrible taste in games. just like ninja theory will prevent any deals with team ninja, platinum or any good action studio for xbox in the future, the state of decay ip will be MS's zombie priority. no more dead rising. no deals with resident evil theyll cede deals with popular games to push their own internal shitty games. Bad things ahead for xbox, glad i made the switch. RIP Quote Link to post Share on other sites
54212 432 Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 Capcom needs better management. The studio should've been closed before it got that deep into development on its current projects. But good riddance. Their Dead Rising sequels were all garbage. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You can't make this shit up lol So stupid... never said it was MS's fault. my point is even if dead rising were to survive MS wouldn't give 2 shits about it. If it ever resurfaces it's a multiplat day one/exclusive content/timed on playstation or has a playstation marketing deal like team ninja, mass effect, COD, resident evil, bungie, ace combat, tales of, pretty much anything that made the 360 great. . Instead of dead rising there's state of decay instead of team ninja there's ninja theory instead of COD we get battlefail Vagina Instead of street fighter we get killer shitstink Phil's refashioned the xbox into a genuine PLAN B console. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
