Wow! I'm excited to see what they'll make in the future!

[Kerotan]

Super news.  Hopefully they do an off road Motorstorm type racer.

[Raven]

Good for them. Always glad to see people able to maintain employment after unfortunate corporate decisions. Hopefully they get to keep making the games they want to.

[Legend]

Wow.

Hopefully Codemasters can actually keep them employed though. Would suck if after a poor game they were shut down again.

The solution? Make a good game.

Driveclub was a very good game so they just need to keep at it. Although they should probably make sure to release when they're ready, which they definitely didn't with Driveclub.

That's the problem. Driveclub became a very good game over time. It was not that way out of the gate. It was delayed a year and still had technical issues at launch and was a little light on content. What Driveclub eventually turned into is what their next game needs to be from the start. If they pull another early Driveclub or MotorStorm sequel, things will probably get ugly for them and deservedly so.

It should be a  good place for them
