Meta Layoffs Hit Batman: Arkham Shadow Studio Camouflaj, Game Projects Canceled

The studio remains open for now, but it's been gutted

It was bad enough that Batman: Arkham Shadow—one of the best games of the entire Arkham franchise, with an absolutely stunning take on Harvey Dent—was stuck as a Meta exclusive for Zuck’s overpriced VR headset, with absolutely no hope for a port for PC/console players. That was lousy enough on its own. Most people won’t even be able to access this incredible game.

But NOW, Meta is ditching games and VR entirely, in favor of fucking AI. And the studio that made this amazing game which most people can’t even play has been gutted, with its future looking dire. They were working on an Arkham Shadow sequel with a studio that now no longer exists.

Hey guys, I created a discord. Please feel free to join. I've got a meta quest vr headset and I plan on hosting 21+ rooms on bigscreen in the future to just hang out, chat, listen to music, watch videos and TV shows and movies, and discuss random topics of interest. So if you have a vr headset, install bigscreen app, it's free, and I'll let you know when I'm about to host a room.

John Carmack’s Full Statement On Echo VR’s Planned Closure

Former Oculus CTO John Carmack responded to a request for comment from UploadVR regarding Meta's planned closure of Echo VR in August.

Interesting article. I really appreciated his comments at the end about the dangers of relying on central servers and not having end of life plans for games before they go down:

Every game should make sure they still work at some level without central server support. Even when not looking at end of life concerns, being able to work when the internet is down is valuable. If you can support some level of LAN play for a multiplayer game, the door is at least open for people to write proxies in the future. Supporting user-run servers as an option can actually save on hosting costs, and also opens up various community creative avenues.

Be disciplined about your build processes and what you put in your source tree, so there is at least the possibility of making the project open source. Think twice before adding dependencies that you can’t redistribute, and consider testing with stubbed out versions of the things you do use. Don’t do things in your code that wouldn’t be acceptable for the whole world to see. Most of game development is a panicky rush to make things stop falling apart long enough to ship, so it can be hard to dedicated time to fundamental software engineering, but there is a satisfaction to it, and it can pay off with less problematic late stage development.

Meta’s VR remains under antitrust abuse watch in Germany

Meta’s VR remains under antitrust abuse watch in Germany

Germany’s Federal Cartel Office (FCO) is claiming credit for Meta untying its virtual reality headsets from its social accounts — a change of direction the company announced back in August, when it began to roll out Meta accounts and Meta Horizon Profiles, saying these accounts could be used to log into its virtual reality products in place of logins for Facebook and Instagram (while still…
