Kranitoko Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 I find your lack of writers disturbing. Especially considering there's so much more story content to explore that Bioware won't seem to do. I mean... they could go places with individual class stories... but NOOOO. Planetary stories are the priority Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elminster_cs Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 3 or more years of professional game software development experience in building 4+ years (minimum) of professional programming experience Well unfortunately no intern position and no new grad in something related... actually working for Datalogic and finishing my studies...

Tatile Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 (edited) I don't think guys get Mat leave. Paternity leave, which is even less likely in the US, to be honest. This guy did. Yes :3 gender!=sex Though not all transmen retain their uterus, some do and not every country requires that people be sterilized because they're different to some artificial norm.

ManiacDavis Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 I'm glad we all concur that the most important part of this dev post is that Musco is pregnant and is taking maternity leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tatile Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Chocolate AND/OR pickles. I love gherkins and I love chocolate, but I don't think I could mix them. Chocolate covered gherkins. Yuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dedrayge Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Okay...How in the **** did a man manage to get pregnant? Not even sure I want to know how...

Nostroo Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 It's not Musco! They are looking for a Austin: Temporary Community Production Coordinator (27299) and if you look at their signature Eric Musco | Community Manager Courtney Woods | Community Production Specialist Amber Green | Live Services Specialist it's Courtney!

Tatile Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 So Mr. Musco isn't sitting at his desk demanding crates of chocolate-covered gherkins? Well there goes that fanart card I was making.

Korse Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 So...um...did devs quit or is BW getting super serious about improving this game? Just because they have open positions doesn't mean they just created or opened these positions. I applied for two positions at BioWare (including one of these) all the way back in March. For the Tools position, I was told that a senior and tenured developer did vacate the position, but they also had plans of expanding that team by a couple members. I thought it would be cool to get into the games industry since games have been my biggest hobby since I was about four years old. The games industry seems to have become more aligned to what I consider the more mainstream development community, but they still count years in the games industry and shipped titles as a serious consideration factor. I thought it would be really fun to get involved (and I've played the game I'd be working with since beta), but it wouldn't be almost like hitting reset on my career. Not to mention a significant salary reduction (20-30%). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OddballEasyEight Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 (edited) I find your lack of writers disturbing. They are using the same writers as they used to, but instead of having them on permanent staff (which they really don't need) they are bringing them in as contractors/freelancers when needed...
