EA were trying to dabble in things they knew nothing about. This is the result.

"An update was released for the game just hours ago, so the move seems to be unexpected."

My guess they knew something about mobas but this is another case of the big suits up top wanted something to draw profit fast rather waiting for profit to come. That or want to put that manpower towards another more meaningful project.

The game was pretty much better than LOL graphics. Alot of ppl appreciated them. Even I downloaded, pretty smooth.

ValKilmer3465d ago

But was the game itself better than LOL?

Cybernox3465d ago

Ofcourse had better touch than LOL.

Btw u commented " EA were trying to dabble in things they knew nothing about. This is the result"

did you downloaded it ?

LOL doesn't even have east coast servers.

Of course Dawngate was better.

Shutting down servers is what EA do........that and make glitchy games.

Did you know EA had a MOBA game called Dawngate in development?

EA used to have Dawngate, a MOBA by Waystone Studios in development and not many people remember it nowadays. It is a story of late trend adoption EA never learned from, the same EA being decent for once and a fan-made resuscitation.

This one my Biggest gripes with EA Shutting down servers ok yeh frees up servers be used on other games but Come on your multi billion dollor company dig deep you cheap beeps.
Buy some servers goodness sakes, i think its wrong cos some servers run a game it gets eaither old or become less active they shut them down despite who plays there games.
I understand if it's occasionally but EA do this all the time to multiple games not always sports games like this article.
