The developers of the game have taken a major hit in EA latest round of layoffs. MIR2 money is available here, and you can make full use of it.This story is still classified as rumor, but we have contacted Mythic for confirmation. We should have some more information when EA quarterly earnings report is released later today.
UPDATE: Lending some more credence to the report, Mythic Josh Drescher tweets, since folks have asked, I am fine. Official stuff will follow, I am sure.
UPDATE #2: We have contacted Mythic, but they cannot make any comment at this time.
UPDATE #3: We can now confirm that the layoffs today have indeed occurred, as it has been revealed in EA just released quarterly earnings report that 1500 jobs are to be cut by March 2010, with today cuts included in that total.
While we have confirmation that layoffs have occurred, the extent to which Mythic Entertainment has been affected cannot, and that aspect of the story will have to remain as rumor until/if we can get confirmation on the exact figures.
